Chapter 404: Bitter Forest

The other party's shouting made Chen Xiao completely stunned. From what he said, did he recognize the black dragon in his sea of ​​consciousness?

It seemed that because he saw the black dragon, the guy in Chen Xiao's sea of ​​consciousness did not take any action, just like he had forgotten what he originally wanted to do. Chen Xiao quickly took this opportunity to activate the black fire and wrapped the other party up.

"No, no, no! Don't burn me! Young man, please! Please let me go! I really didn't mean to offend you!"

In the sea of ​​consciousness, the other party made a terrified sound after being wrapped by the black fire.

This made Chen Xiao even more curious about the origin of this guy. Obviously, the other party not only recognized the black dragon, but also knew the characteristics of the black fire.

Immediately, Chen Xiao moved his mind and entered the sea of ​​consciousness. Then, he saw the guy who entered his sea of ​​consciousness, or, more correctly, a ball of things, energy.

Well, it was indeed a ball of energy, but it was a little different from ordinary energy. There was a small drop of dark blood in the middle, which was obviously blood essence.

"Tell me, what are your origins? Was the blood lake monster just now you?" Chen Xiao asked with a cold face.

Perhaps the black fire really had a great deterrent effect on this guy, so when faced with Chen Xiao's question, the other party answered quite quickly.

"My dear, the blood lake monster just now was indeed created by me to maintain my life, but I really didn't mean to offend you. It's really that I have been trapped in this damn blood lake for three thousand years! I saw a complete body appear at this time, so I was bewildered and offended you. Please, please let me go, just treat me as a fart and let it go directly, okay?"

"Shut up! Answer whatever I ask, don't talk nonsense to me!" Chen Xiao interrupted him.

This guy was really scared, and he begged for mercy as soon as he opened his mouth. And facing Chen Xiao's scolding, he immediately shut up obediently.

However, Chen Xiao still heard some important information from what the other party said.

This guy has been in the Blood Lake for three thousand years, which is exactly when Chen Xiao was framed. Maybe he can learn something from this guy.

"What's your name? Why are you locked up in this Blood Lake?" Chen Xiao continued to ask.

The other party still answered Chen Xiao's questions honestly.

It turned out that this guy was a member of the demon clan who helped the Star-sucking Demon King design this relic building. His name was Kusen. In terms of strength, he was also at the level of a semi-saint. However, he never expected that after the relic building was completed, the Star-sucking Demon King suddenly made a crazy decision to kill all those who participated in the construction of the ruins!

At this point, Chen Xiao somewhat understood the origin of the Blood Lake.

After Kusen was killed, he was naturally thrown into the Blood Lake. But he was also a semi-saint among the demon clan, and the practice method happened to have a life-saving skill, which was to condense a drop of blood essence to preserve the soul.

But even though he held onto his soul, it required a lot of blood and qi to maintain it. If he couldn't find a body early, his soul would eventually dissipate little by little.

Fortunately, being in the blood lake, he didn't have to worry about not having enough blood and qi. Therefore, Kusen has been hanging on to his life for three thousand years without dying.

After hearing Kusen's experience, Chen Xiao had to admire this guy's desire to survive. He survived three thousand years in this ghost place with only a drop of blood, and finally became a monster like that. If it were Chen Xiao, he might not be able to withstand such a torment.

After clarifying Kusen's origin, Chen Xiao turned to ask about the origin of the black dragon.

"Do you know the black dragon in my sea of ​​consciousness? Tell me where it came from."

"Ah?" Hearing Chen Xiao's question, Kusen was obviously stunned, and then he asked back cautiously, "Young man, do you not know where this black dragon came from?"

"Tell me if I ask you to. If you ask one more question, do you believe I will burn you?" Chen Xiao threatened with a cold face. The black fire surrounding Kusen was getting closer.

Kusen was almost scared to death and quickly answered loudly.

"This black dragon is the Destroyer Dragon, the sacred beast worshipped by my demon clan, the Destroyer Dragon."

Destroyer Dragon? The sacred beast of the demon clan?

Chen Xiao was stunned. He really didn't expect that the black dragon would be the sacred beast of the demon clan. Could it be that the demon clan he met at the beginning would be absorbed so thoroughly by the black fire.

But why would the Destroyer Dragon of the demon clan be tied to the Void Tower? Chen Xiao clearly remembered that when he got the Void Tower, there was no Destroyer Dragon entangled on it.

Could it be that something changed when he was reborn?

Chen Xiao thought this situation was also possible. Then he spoke again: "How much do you know about the Destroying Dragon? Tell me everything."

"In fact, I only know the name of the Destroying Dragon. Although it is the sacred beast of our demon clan, no one has ever really seen it. I just saw its portrait in an ancient book, so I can recognize it."

With Kusen's answer, it seems that he can't get more information about the black dragon from him. But at least, Chen Xiao finally has a direction to explore the origin of the black dragon, which is a good thing.

"Since you have been in this ruins for three thousand years, you must know a lot about it, right?"

Chen Xiao changed the topic again. Unfortunately, Kusen's answer was very different from what Chen Xiao expected: Kusen was only familiar with some rooms around the Blood Lake, and had never been in other rooms.

"Then do you know that there is a teleportation array around here to leave here?" Chen Xiao frowned.

Just such a small action, that made Kusen scared again, and he hurriedly said yes. There is a teleportation array opposite the Blood Lake, which can be directly transmitted to the Demon Palace.

"Demon Palace?"

Chen Xiao didn't know if Kusen was deliberately trying to trick him. With his identity, teleporting to the Demon Palace was basically sending him to death.

"Is there no teleportation array to teleport back to the Black Dragon Domain?"

"Black Dragon Domain? What is that place?" Kusen obviously didn't know the Black Dragon Domain.

It seems that this guy has lived a very closed-off life for three thousand years.

However, since he said there is a teleportation array in front, maybe Chen Xiao can modify the coordinates of that teleportation array and return to the Black Dragon Domain.

"Well... Young man, you've told you everything I know, so can you let me go? If I don't hurry back to the Blood Lake, I'm afraid I won't be able to hold on for much longer." Ku Sen said weakly.

His words were met with a sneer from Chen Xiao.

"Let you go? That won't do. If I let you go, you might attack me again. Now I'll give you two choices, either you'll be burned to death by me. Or you'll completely open your soul and let me put something in it."

How could Chen Xiao let an old monster who survived three thousand years ago go?
