Dragon Hidden in the Sky

Chapter 1572 The Golden City (1)

Ye Qing asked in bewilderment, "Historically, how many people have come here?"

Gerno shook his head and said, "Very rare. In my memory, you are the first. It is said that a long, long time ago, there was also a person, but that person was not the chosen one we are looking for!"

Ye Qing's expression shifted.

Judging from the conversation, the people of the subterranean tribe were indeed very honest and simple. They answered Ye Qing's questions honestly.

Based on these questions, Ye Qing pondered that these people were very likely descendants of the Earth Core Clan of the Spirit Realm!

After the battle in the Chaotic Star Sea, the Spirit Realm was also a level nine civilization, and they possessed one of the Seven Secrets. However, because they went to suppress the death characteristic, the entire civilization was eventually destroyed by the Heavenly Court. Now it seems that some people in the Spirit Realm have managed to escape.

For example, the indigenous people who seal themselves in the spirit world, and the subterranean race of today!

Of course, this is on the premise that they come from the spirit world.

"Where were you originally from?" Ye Qing asked.

The man shook his head and said, "The clan leader said it's in the distant starry sky, but... we're currently deep underground, so we don't even know what the starry sky is. We've only ever seen it in TV dramas and the like!"

Ye Qing was speechless. A TV series?

The fact that the people of the subterranean tribe can live in such a place must indeed be related to their physical constitution!

Ye Qing asked, "Are you all weapon refiners?"

"Yes!" Gerno said proudly, "Our clan are all weapon refiners! I can forge top-tier sixth-grade weapons!"

Ye Qing was slightly surprised that both Gerno and Gerxi were immortals, yet they were able to forge a sixth-grade weapon despite being above their level!

They followed the lava path, and after walking for a while, Ye Qing realized that Gerno and the others had a route. Many of the rocks in the lava were marked, seemingly to help them find their way!

The three of them traveled together. Gerno enthusiastically introduced Ye Qing to some mineral materials and how to mine them. Ye Qing would also help the two of them mine some ores, keeping some for himself. Most of them were seventh-grade materials, which could fetch a high price in the market!

After traveling for a long time, suddenly, Gerno said, "We've arrived!"

"Ah!" Ye Qing was stunned for a moment. He saw that there was still lava all around him and said in a strange way, "There are no cities here!"

Gerno smiled and said, "We, the Earth's Core Clan, are the most skilled craftsmen!"

At this point, Gerno walked to the front of a stone wall and gently tapped the hard stone a few times!

Then, to Ye Qing's astonishment, the enormous, perfectly sealed stone wall in front of him slowly opened up to both sides.

Seeing this scene, Ye Qing's scalp tingled with shock!

This seems to be a door!

As the stone walls unfolded to both sides, soft light emanated from them, and a huge passage slowly appeared before Ye Qing!

These passageways are exquisitely crafted and extremely comfortable to walk on.

Gerno looked at the shocked Ye Qing and chuckled, "Impressive, isn't it!"

This is more than just a remarkable issue. This stone wall could be a mountain peak, and they have transformed it into a gate to protect their world.

Just as Ye Qing was about to step inside, he suddenly noticed a line of words written on the edge of the stone wall.

"The Tengu clan is forbidden from entering. Anyone who disobeys will be executed!"

When Ye Qing saw those words, he subconsciously thought of the big yellow dog.

"What is this character?" Ye Qing asked, puzzled.

"You mean this!" Gerno said, "This is the ancestral precept of our Earth Core Clan. Although I have never seen it, it is said that countless years ago, the Heavenly Dog Clan tricked us out of our clan's treasure, the Heaven-Shaking Hammer, as well as many ninth-grade and eighth-grade weapons. So this ancestral precept was left behind!"

Ye Qing had a headache. By this point, he was almost certain that the people in front of him were the Earth Core Clan from the Spirit Realm. It seemed that a small number of them had escaped after their defeat and were hiding in this place.

The evil deeds committed by the big yellow dog back then have been resented by their ancestors to this day!

It's important to know that this happened before the Battle of the Chaotic Star Sea, and the Battle of the Chaotic Star Sea is now an unknown number of years ago.

At that time, even the Heavenly Court had not yet been established!

Even after all these years, they still hated the big yellow dog to the core, which shows just how deep the big yellow dog's evil deeds were!

"What a jerk!" Ye Qing thought to himself helplessly.

The three of them walked along the passage. The stone wall was very thick. It took Ye Qing and the others about ten minutes to walk forward. Then, something shocking happened to Ye Qing!

Passing through the stone wall, Ye Qing found himself in a lush, green area with grass, trees, flowers, and fruit! Many members of the subterranean race were working in the fields ahead, while others were relaxing on the lawn.

Ye Qing looked up and saw blue sky and white clouds above... There seemed to be a sun suspended in the air.

Further away, there was a huge, golden city, which shone brilliantly in the sunlight as if it were built of gold!

"This!" Ye Qing swallowed hard.

“This is a simulation system!” Gerno said. “In this space, we can simulate solar rain, and the whole place has been modified.”

"The chieftain said that our place is just like the outside world. It's just a pity that without the Chosen One appearing, we can only live here!" Gerno said.

"Is this place really as the chieftain described?" Gerno asked Ye Qing.

Looking at the lush green mountains and clear waters before him, and the golden city in the distance, Ye Qing took a deep breath and nodded, saying, "This place is more beautiful than many other places, and it's peaceful and undisturbed! It's wonderful!"
