Chapter 991: Ghost Pond Qilin

“Wow, we have 13 white crystals, two yellow crystals, and one blue crystal.”

Da Bao was counting happily in the cave. There were so many crystals. It had only been a few days, and it was more than what they had picked up after staying in the cave for a month.

After Da Bao finished counting, she saw Little Treasure draw heavily on the cave wall. He nodded in satisfaction and said,”Look, it’s been 33 days, and we only have so many.”

“Well, it seems that we will be able to get out soon. I didn’t expect the blue crystal to be so good. They saw us and sent the crystal up themselves. Only that d*mn weasel is too cunning. If we weren’t smart, we would have been fooled by it.”

“Yeah, but the magical beasts here are all very smart. It pretended to give us the crystal, but suddenly attacked us. If it weren’t for the good cooperation between the two of us, it would have snatched our blue crystal away today. It looks like we have to practice well.”

“Yes, when we see the weasel in the future, we will definitely not show mercy. We will kill it directly.”

“Right, kill it directly.”

When they thought about what happened in the afternoon, they still had some lingering fear in their hearts. It was also because these little magical beasts were too obedient these past few days. All of them took the initiative to offer crystals to escape, so they were careless.

The weasel was a yellow crystal magical beast. They thought that it would take the initiative to offer its crystals just like the lynx that they met before. They did not expect it to actually want to pretend to be a pig to eat a tiger. Fortunately, they were a two-man team… Little Treasure reacted quickly and pulled her back. However, they did not let the weasel have it easy either. They directly cut open its stomach and took away the crystal.

This was called “If you refuse a toast, you will have to drink the forfeit.” Yes, that was what they said.

“Today, Da Bai did not come out. Should we go to the lake to have a look?”

After the two of them counted the crystal, they were a little worried about the big white dragon. Seven days had already passed. Why did Da Bai not come out today?

“Well, let’s change into our swimsuits and swim over to take a look. Now that we can swim very far, we’re not afraid of drowning again. Besides, there’s Da Bai in the lake that’s not afraid.”

“Okay, I’ll go out and change clothes. Hurry up and change inside.”

“Got it.”

The two children did this the best. Whether it was at home or in the forest, Shen Xiaoxiao had told them that boys and girls were not allowed to change clothes together. Of course, there were times when special circumstances were excluded, because they were biological siblings, and they usually had to be separated.

Therefore, they usually changed one outside and the other inside.

“Da Bao, I think my clothes are a little small.”

“Ah? Small again so soon?”

“What? Before, it was the shoes that were small, but now it’s the underwear.”

“Oh, then next time when we go out, remember to skin them after hunting. I remember Daddy saying that bear skin is the best, but we haven’t seen a bear yet. And I think it’s so cruel to skin them.”

“Yeah, I also think it’s so cruel. It’s better to just kill them.”

Actually, two children, don’t you think it’s even crueler when you stab someone in the stomach and cut open their internal organs?

“Okay, it’s changed. Let’s go.”

The weather here was really strange. The absolute temperature at noon was more than 30 degrees Celsius. Even if the two of them were naked, they wouldn’t catch a cold, let alone swimming in the lake. The temperature difference between morning and evening was very big. However, they had been here for so long, and it was the same every day. There was no other difference. They did not know if there would be four distinct seasons here, but this kind of weather was indeed the best for them. They did not need to keep out the cold, and they did not need to think about what to wear every day so that it would not be cold.

They stepped on the straw sandals made by Da Bao and swam to the water’s edge. One month was enough for two children to learn how to swim. Moreover, these two children had eaten the thousand-year-old stalactite milk. Therefore, their physical fitness was not something that an ordinary child could compare to. Even a healthy adult could not compare to them.

Something like being sick or catching a cold was something that the two of them could not understand at all.

“Wow, the water is so cool and refreshing.”

“Yeah, swim quickly. Da Bai is in the lake. Moreover, we have to dive down.”

The two children were also magnanimous. They never thought about whether Da Bai was in there or not. What would they do if he was not there?

However, Da Bai was indeed at the bottom of the lake. His injuries were very serious, and the power of the immortal binding rope was too great. Moreover, it had already been ten thousand years, and he had not been able to break free. His magic power was slowly disappearing. Now, it seemed that he would not be able to safely transcend the tribulation in the near future. At that time, he would disappear from the world. If that happened, he and his little wife would have to wait ten thousand years before they could meet again.

“Da Bai, Da Bai, come out quickly.”

Da Bao called out in the lake. Little Treasure also stopped in the middle of the lake, swinging his short legs as they waited for Da Bai to come out.

However, Da Bai did not come out. Instead, he said to them,”I’m injured. I can’t come out. Be good.”

“Da Bai, what happened to you? How did you get injured? Is it the golden rope on your body?”

Hearing Da Bai’s words, Little Treasure asked worriedly. Previously, he had seen a golden rope wrapped around Da Bai’s body. He did not know what was going on.

“Mm, that’s the immortal binding rope. It’s the reason why I can’t get out of this deep pool.”

“Then can’t you take it off?”

“I’ve been bound for 10,000 years.”

“Ah? 10,000 years? That’s a long time.”

The big white dragon shook his head. Wasn’t it 10,000 years? Not only 10,000 years, but he had also slept for 10,000 years. If it wasn’t for their arrival that woke him up, he reckoned that he would have been struck to death by lightning while he slept through the tribulation.

“It’s been a very, very long time –”

“Da Bai, how can we remove the rope on your body?”

“Colorful crystal.”

“Colorful crystal? What’s that? Isn’t the highest one red?”

“No, it’s a colorful crystal. It’s the same color crystal as the one in my body.”

Da Bao and Little Treasure looked at each other. What was this colorful crystal? How could they get it?

“Then who else has it besides you?”

“The Ghost Pond Qilin. But it’s on the other side of the mountain. You can’t find it. Even if you find it, you can’t get it. His magic power is boundless. Other than me, no magical beast in the World of Magical Beasts is its match.”

“Oh, so it’s the Ghost Pond Qilin. We can help you.”

“Hahaha, my baby, you can’t help me. Be good and gather the crystals. Then you can go out and look for your parents.”

Eh, why had Da Bai changed? In the past, Da Bai had said that he wanted her to be his wife. Why did he want them to go out and look for their parents now?

Da Bao was someone who could not hide her words. She directly asked,”Da Bai, you don’t want me to be your wife anymore? Then if we go out, we won’t be able to see you in the future. I said that I wanted to bring you out with me. I even wanted to bring you out to swim in the sea.”

Little Treasure frowned as he listened from the side. Although he really liked this Da Bai, how could Da Bao be Da Bai’s wife? He could not beat Da Bai. He would not be able to support Da Bao in the future. Da Bao was too reckless. She was too reckless. She should find a weaker, stronger magical beast to be her husband.

Alright, Little Treasure’s worldview had also deviated endlessly. He estimated that it wouldn’t be long before he found a magical beast to be his wife…
