Chapter 114 The Small World in the Belly of the Dragon Python
by SurroundedbyBooksHowever, just as Bu Gong was lost in thought, Senior Brother Zhou, who had just been swept back by the energy wave surrounding Bu Gong, now had a look of horror and astonishment on his face.
At this moment, he was lying more than ten feet away from Bu Gong, staring blankly at Bu Gong standing in mid-air, with only one thought in his mind: “How could he still be alive? How could it be…”
It was not until a moment later that he came to his senses and shuddered all over; he took a close look at the palace in front of him, then quietly retracted his neck, and slowly supported his body with his hands and feet to move towards the foggy area behind.
However, despite this, there was a hint of confusion in his eyes when he looked at Bu Gong.
“He seems a little familiar, but I don’t know where I’ve seen this person before? But why do I feel vaguely familiar with him?” Thoughts raced through his mind, and the confusion in Brother Zhou’s eyes became even more intense.
When he looked at Bu Gong at this time, he had a vague impression in his mind, but for a moment he couldn’t remember where he had seen it before.
Although he felt familiar with Bu Gong, he still moved backward quietly; anyone with a discerning eye could see that Bu Gong’s cultivation level must have far exceeded that of a half-step Peeping Yuan cultivator, and it was obvious that he was most likely a Peeping Yuan cultivator.
Just based on Bu Gong’s gesture just now, Senior Brother Zhou felt a chill in his heart.
When he came here before, he had gone around the huge rock that was several feet in diameter. Therefore, he knew very well that it would be impossible for a cultivator with the cultivation level of Half a Step to the Yuan to penetrate the huge rock that was several feet thick with just one finger.
He even had a vague premonition in his heart that even a true cultivator in the early stage of the first level of the Peeping Yuan Realm would find it difficult to do what Bu Gong did and easily pierce through a huge rock several feet long with just one finger.
His expression changed, with a hint of horror in his eyes, and he quietly supported himself and moved backwards.
At this moment, Bu Gong felt somewhat happy.
You know, when he was under the body of the giant red python, he didn’t even have the slightest room to resist.
He originally thought that he would most likely die in the space filled with snakes, but he didn’t expect that at the last moment, he was unexpectedly thrown out of the circular space by the tail of the giant red python.
The moment before he fell into coma, he felt as if he had passed through a barrier, but then he fell into coma and didn’t know where he was thrown.
The next day, when he woke up, he found himself floating in a lake; but he unexpectedly discovered that the water in the lake was extremely effective in healing his injuries.
So he didn’t struggle to get up immediately, but stayed where he was and continued his journey of healing and recovery.
Now, not only have his internal injuries healed, but his strength has also improved; the secret technique of breaking the acupoints has also been transformed by him to five times the acupoints, which he had never expected.
So, Bu Gong was silent for a long time before his expression changed and he regained his composure.
He glanced around and saw that it was pitch black and foggy. However, when his spiritual thoughts extended outwards, a strange smile appeared on his calm face.
Then he suddenly turned his head and looked towards the dark foggy area on his right. Then he moved and rushed into the dark foggy area: “I didn’t expect that there would be someone coming to this place. I should know what this place is.”
With Bu Gong’s spiritual sense, in this foggy area swallowed by darkness, it can extend up to forty to fifty feet around his body.
Therefore, although Senior Brother Zhou had escaped from Bu Gong’s field of vision, he could not escape his spiritual search.
At this time, Senior Brother Zhou had been walking forward in the dark for about half a quarter of an hour; but because the fog was extremely thick in the darkness, his vision and spiritual consciousness were much shorter than before by the small lake, so he actually didn’t walk very far.
There was a trace of relief on his face. Because he had used all his spiritual power to clear the way, beads of sweat oozed out of his forehead. But even so, Brother Zhou still looked back every few steps, fearing that Bu Gong would catch up.
However, whatever he feared really came to pass. Just as he secretly sighed “lucky” in his heart, he heard a “whoosh” sound and a light breeze suddenly blew past him.
As for whether the clouds around him were rolled up, Senior Brother Zhou couldn’t see it either.
“Huh? Why is there wind? That’s weird.” Feeling a sudden breeze blowing by his side, Senior Brother Zhou was a little surprised and had some doubts in his heart.
Then he stopped groping forward and turned to look behind him. The result was darkness, without even a trace of movement. He used his spiritual sense to search carefully for a long time, but still found nothing.
Shaking his head, Senior Brother Zhou turned around again and planned to move forward.
But just as he turned his head and glanced ahead, his body suddenly shook, his pupils shrank sharply, and his expression changed drastically.
“You, you, why are you here?” At this time, Senior Brother Zhou’s body was trembling slightly, and his face was full of horror and fear; his right hand was trembling as he pointed at the red-clothed figure in front of him who was no more than a foot away from him, and he screamed in a stuttering voice.
“Why am I here?” After hearing what Senior Brother Zhou said, Bu Gong had a strange smile on his face. He looked indifferently at Senior Brother Zhou who was terrified in front of him, and muttered as if he was talking to himself.
“You, you…” In response, Senior Brother Zhou said the word “you” several times in a row, but he never said a complete sentence.
Seeing this, Bu Gong didn’t intend to tease him anymore. He narrowed his eyes slightly and said, “You should be a disciple of Xianyang Sect, right?”
The reason why Bu Gong asked this was because he had seen the other person among the thirty people who came to Xuanling Secret Land.
He had observed everyone at the time, so naturally he had some impression of this Senior Brother Zhou.
“Eh?” Senior Brother Zhou was also stunned when he heard Bu Gong ask this.
He looked at Bu Gong in front of him with a look of doubt and uncertainty, and a trace of memory gradually emerged from the depths of his pupils. Then a slight realization flashed across Senior Brother Zhou’s face, but he still asked with some uncertainty:
“You, you are also a disciple of Xianyang Sect?” As this question was asked, the confusion in Senior Brother Zhou’s eyes gradually dissipated.
On the other hand, he looked a little happy at the moment: “Oh right, that must be the case. I remember you. When I first came to the Xuanling Secret Land, you were also there. I remember you…”
Looking at Senior Brother Zhou whose mood changed so quickly, Bu Gong was a little speechless; he was scared to death just now, but now he became so outgoing?
Seeing that Senior Brother Zhou started to chatter incessantly and looked like he wanted to continue talking, Bu Gong waved his hand and said, “Since we are all disciples of Xianyang Sect, may I know what your name is?”
Seeing that Bu Gong was getting impatient, Senior Brother Zhou did not get too carried away. After all, Bu Gong’s strength was there.
“Hehe… My name is Zhou Wen. I wonder, I wonder if senior brother is… the outer disciple who entered the sect a year ago as rumored in the sect, Senior Brother Bu Gong?” Senior Brother Zhou introduced himself first in a very respectful tone, and then asked hesitantly.
“Oh? Is it a rumor in the sect?” Bu Gong was stunned at first, then raised his eyebrows and said jokingly, “Am I really famous?”
“No, no, no, Senior Brother Bu, please don’t be offended. That’s not what I meant…” When Zhou Wen heard Bu Gong say this, his expression changed instantly, and he hurriedly explained in panic.
Seeing Zhou Wen like this, Bu Gong felt a little amused.
Bu Gong frowned slightly and said, “Do you know where we are now?”
Zhou Wen’s eyes flickered when he heard this, and he said, “Brother Bu, I just arrived at this foggy place today. I don’t even know where this place is.”
As he spoke, Zhou Wen curled his lips, a trace of helplessness hanging on his face.
Seeing this, Bu Gong stared at Zhou Wen deeply. Seeing that the other party did not seem to be lying, Bu Gong nodded slightly.
After a brief pause, Bu Gong extended all his spiritual sense and searched the surroundings repeatedly, but in the end there was still no result, and he couldn’t help but feel surprised.
“If that’s the case, then how did you get in here?” Bu Gong asked, looking at Zhou Wen in front of him calmly.
Upon hearing this, Zhou Wen hesitated slightly and said in a bowed voice: “I did not enter this place on my own initiative. I was forced in by someone.”
“Oh? Were you forced into this place? Tell me in detail.” After hearing what the other party said, Bu Gong became a little curious.
Afterwards, Zhou Wen recounted in detail how the three disciples of the Corpse Puppet Sect had chased him and how he had escaped here.
However, the part in the middle where he plotted against Junior Sister Liu was slightly changed; it became that Liu Min went alone to meet the enemy in order to help him escape, which led to her being killed by the disciples of the Corpse Puppet Sect in the end.
Bu Gong listened and nodded; although he did not completely believe what Zhou Wen said, he thought it was probably correct.
Otherwise, Zhou Wen would not have rushed in without knowing where this foggy area was.
As Zhou Wen spoke, he observed Bu Gong’s expression from time to time, his mind already in turmoil. “Isn’t it rumored that the outer disciple Bu Gong has no talent? Why is he so powerful now? It feels like he can suppress me with a flip of his hand. This is far beyond the cultivation level of a Half-Step Peeping Yuan.”
Although he thought so in his heart, he didn’t dare show it on the surface.
After hearing what Zhou Wen said, Bu Gong fell silent for a moment, but he was secretly surprised in his heart.
The foggy area before him definitely looked like the outside world.
No matter how big the belly of a dragon python is, the vastness of this foggy area has exceeded Bu Gong’s imagination; he doesn’t think that the space inside the belly of a young dragon python can be so vast.
After pondering for a moment, Bu Gong spoke again and asked, “The Xuanling secret place should have been opened a year ago. Why didn’t you go out but stayed here instead?”
“Hmm?” Zhou Wen was stunned when he heard Bu Gong ask this question. Then he asked hesitantly and nervously, “Senior Brother Bu, don’t you know?”
“Oh? You know what?” Bu Gong was stunned for a moment when he saw Zhou Wen said this without any context.
After carefully observing Bu Gong’s expression and seeing that he truly didn’t know, Zhou Wen began to wonder, “It seems like he really doesn’t know. But, should I tell him or not?”
For a moment, Zhou Wen’s heart began to feel conflicted; you know, entering the dragon python’s belly to look for the dragon python’s poisonous fetus was a task that Nian Xindao personally instructed them to do after entering the secret place, and he sternly warned them to keep their mouths shut and not to talk about it easily.
Therefore, when Bu Gong just asked this question, Zhou Wen became conflicted.
Nian thought to himself that he was afraid from the bottom of his heart; but in this situation, Bu Gong was staring at him with a faint look, and an invisible pressure suddenly arose, which made Zhou Wen feel secretly bitter.
He quietly raised his head and glanced at Bu Gong, and was greeted by Bu Gong’s black eyes as deep as the vast starry sky, and the invisible pressure became even greater.
“Why, it’s not convenient to say?” Just when Zhou Wen was wavering, a faint voice suddenly sounded, and there was even a hint of impatience in it.
Suddenly, cold sweat broke out on Zhou Wen’s forehead. He then gritted his teeth and said, “Bu, Senior Brother Bu, we are following the orders of Senior Brother Nian Xindao to search for the poisonous fetus of a death dragon python in the Xuanling secret land.”
After saying that, Zhou Wen secretly raised his head and glanced at Bu Gong, his expression full of panic.
“Oh? A death dragon python is looking for its poisonous fetus in its belly?” Upon hearing what the other party said, Bu Gong’s eyes froze instantly.
Seeing Bu Gong’s expression, Zhou Wen became even more puzzled. “The other party shouldn’t be unaware of this. Otherwise, how could he be in this world inside the dragon python’s belly?”
His eyes flickered slightly, Bu Gong looked up at Zhou Wen again and said, “In that case, have you found any trace of it?”
Hearing this, Zhou Wen shook his head with a bitter face, and from time to time he stole glances at Bu Gong, as if he wanted to say something but hesitated.
Bu Gong also noticed this, and with his eyes slightly narrowed, he said lightly: “Do you have something to say?”
Seeing this, Zhou Wen pondered for a moment and said, “Senior Brother Bu, we are now in the belly of the dragon python, don’t you know?”
“Are we now inside the dragon python’s belly?” Bu Gong was shocked when he heard these words suddenly, and strange lights flashed in his eyes.
Zhou Wen nodded and said, “Well, we are now in the small world inside the dragon python’s belly, but we are now in an unknown foggy area.”
Upon hearing the six words “a small world inside the dragon python’s belly”, Bu Gong’s mind was in a trance for a moment, and there was a hint of surprise and deep ecstasy in the depths of his eyes.
“A small world inside the dragon python’s belly? I was actually knocked into the small world inside the dragon python’s belly by the red giant python’s tail?” Bu Gong had the urge to laugh wildly at this moment.
As the saying goes, “Misfortunes never come singly, and blessings never come alone.” But what about now? Although he was severely injured by the red python’s tail, after recovering, his cultivation level improved further. He even accidentally stumbled into the small world inside the dragon python that he had been trying so hard to find.
Thoughts flashed through his mind quickly, Bu Gong’s eyes became brighter, and even a smile unconsciously appeared at the corner of his mouth.
“So, I’m already in the small world inside the dragon python’s body?” Bu Gong murmured softly, and the smile on his face grew wider.
This is why Zhou Wenzhen lowered his head slightly at this moment, otherwise he would have been able to clearly see the happy smile on Bu Gong’s face.
