The Naga led Chu Ze and the others into the mythical realm. Chu Ze looked at the path the Naga was leading and felt that it looked familiar. This seemed to be the place they had been to last time.
Chu Ze had taken this path the last time he came to the mythical realm. However, he saw that this path was too desolate. It could not even be considered a path.
If it were not for the fact that Chu Ze and Rhubarb used this route last time, this place would still be a wasteland full of weeds.
After Chu Ze and Rhubarb walked through this grassland, the weeds had all been flattened. Rhubarb was still the most powerful one on the road.
Rhubarb’s stomach was dragged on the ground. After walking on the ground for a while, it immediately cleared a road.
Rhubarb’s weight was much heavier than a road roller, and it was also much more useful.
After walking for a while, Chu Ze asked, “This looks like a wasteland. Are you sure there will be people in such a place?”
The Naga nodded and said, “Don’t worry. I won’t randomly lead the way for you.”
“The prison here is built underground, and there is a large array underground. With this, we can save materials, and the demons won’t be able to escape easily.”
“If we walk a little further, we’ll reach the prison. When we get there, we’ll be able to see the strongest demon in the prison.”
Chu Ze thought for a moment and said, “How does that demon’s strength compare to ours? Do you think we can beat those demons?”
The Naga thought for a moment and said, “Actually, in terms of level, you guys definitely can’t beat the demons here, but in terms of size, you guys have the advantage.”
Chu Ze nodded and said, “How are your friends’ strengths?”
“After so many years of consumption, my friends’ strengths have decreased a lot. They’re probably about the same as me.”
Chu Ze was now considering whether to look for the Naga’s friends first. It should be better to have a few more people to help than just charging over like this.
However, the Naga’s next words dispelled Chu Ze’s idea.
“My friends have bad tempers. If you go over like this, you might be viewed as enemies by them. In their eyes, you are demons. The first thing they will do when they see you is to make a move.”
Hearing this, Chu Ze immediately dispelled the idea of looking for the Naga’s friends first.
“If that’s the case, let’s go look for those demons first. We’ll talk about it later.”
The Naga lowered her head and sighed. “Actually, those jailers haven’t appeared up to this point, they could have been found by those demons, or they have already disappeared in the passage of time.”
No one could resist the power of time, even the immortals.
Just look at Nezha. Nezha was very powerful but what was the state he was in now? He did not even dare to attack Chu Ze, a level 40 mythical beast.
Chu Ze comforted the Naga, “Don’t worry too much. Maybe your friends are still in closed-door training. There won’t be any big problems.”
Little Fox, who was beside him, lowered her head and sniffed the ground. “I think I smell the scent of an evolutionary creature.”
Foxes were canines. Their sense of smell was even better than domestic dogs. Before Little Fox’s evolution, she relied almost entirely on her sense of smell to find her prey.
If her sense of smell was bad, she would have starved to death long ago. Moreover, after her evolution, Little Fox’s sense of smell had also evolved. Her sense of smell was now much stronger than before.
Even Chu Ze and the others did not sense anything, but Little Fox had already smelled it first.
The Naga looked at Little Fox in surprise. “This little girl is really amazing. She can actually smell a few hundred meters underground.”
Chu Ze looked at the Naga in surprise. “Can’t you tell what Little Fox’s true form is?”
After hearing Chu Ze’s words, the Naga was really surprised. “Isn’t this little girl human?”
After Little Fox removed the hat on her head, the Naga saw the two pointy ears on Little Fox’s head.
Then, the Naga carefully observed and said, “So you’re a fox demon. I actually didn’t know it.”
“Why are the demons in your world so different from the demons here? When I first came out of the mythical realm, I was really shocked to see you guys.”
“Nezha must have been scared too. Otherwise, he would have captured you and made you his mount. Nezha is used to being arrogant.”
Chu Ze shook his head. “I don’t know. Anyway, evolutionary creatures are all very big. It is almost impossible for you to see evolutionary creatures similar to your size. Don’t think that Little Fox is small now. She is even bigger than me if she returns to her true form.”
Chu Ze’s current body size was only about 80 meters, not even more than 100 meters. Even so, this Naga beside Chu Ze was not even as tall as Chu Ze’s toes.
The communication between the Naga and Chu Ze was entirely based on Chu Ze’s spiritual communication.
If the Naga wanted to see Chu Ze’s expression, she would have to walk further away. Otherwise, she would not be able to see him at all.
The few of them continued to walk ahead for some time before the Naga stopped.
“We’ve reached. Below us is the prison. We need to open an array formation before the prison’s entrance appears.”
Chu Ze looked at the chaotic grassland and asked, “Can you open that array formation?”
The Naga nodded and said, “I can open it.”
The Naga laughed helplessly. “Speaking of which, it’s also a coincidence. If the guard before me hadn’t passed away because he couldn’t stand the passing of time, I wouldn’t have come to guard the prison’s gate until 300 years later.”
“Let’s not talk about those things. I’ll open the gate first. The space inside is very big, and it can accommodate creatures of your size.”
As soon as the gate was opened, Chu Ze felt a strong and uncomfortable smell gushing out from inside.
He almost vomited when he smelled the smell. Little Fox covered her mouth and nose and began to hold her breath.
Rhubarb didn’t seem to feel anything. It was normal for Rhubarb’s thick nerves to not feel the bad smell.
However, Chu Ze looked at Rhubarb in surprise.
“Rhubarb, can’t you smell the bad smell here?”
Rhubarb shook its head and said, “I can smell it. Is this smell bad? I think it’s okay. When I was in the Sea Mythical Realm, I could only pick up some rotten meat to eat. The smell of rotten meat is much worse than the smell here.”
Hearing this, Chu Ze was speechless. He had thought that Rhubarb had some special method, but it turned out that Rhubarb was just used to bad smells.
“Alright, let’s not talk about it anymore. Let’s go down first.. The earlier we get rid of these demons, the less we can smell here.”
