Chapter 341 Red Old Man

After walking down for several hundred meters, I saw the dark red cave again.

Unlike the previous two layers, the dark red color of this layer was brighter and redder.

Those rock walls looked like rocks burned red by fire.

The air inside was distorted.

Qin Shaochen shook his head.

He walked in directly.

The heat wave hit, and the pain appeared.

However, everything was not as strong as expected.

It was just a little hot and painful.

"What's going on?"

"Could it be that a drop of that person's blood would have such a strong effect?"

"It actually made me stop feeling hot and painful immediately?"

Qin Shaochen was a little surprised! The dissatisfaction in his heart was also eliminated a lot.

He quickened his pace and walked forward.

Not long after, he walked into the extreme cold.

It was still the same as before.

The extreme cold outside had no great effect on him.

Although his clothes were covered with thick ice, he walked briskly and strode forward.

A few minutes later, he arrived at another turning point.

He only spent more than half an hour to complete the twelve transformations of the third level.

When he walked out of the last hot cave, he saw that the cave in front of him had become much larger.

An old man in red clothes, with a red beard and a red face, sat on a rock and stared at a black hole on the ground.

Qin Shaochen was very surprised.

He looked carefully again and found that the man was red all over.

Even his eyebrows were red.

"You..."

Qin Shaochen looked at the other person's thick beard and wrinkled face.

Sure enough, the address was changed.

"Qin Shaochen, the junior of the Medicine Sect, greets the senior."

The old man raised his head, glanced at Qin Shaochen, and said:

"You are so young."

"Great martial artist, fourth-level Qi refining, earth-level soul master! Every foundation is good!"

"Amazing, you can also be regarded as a genius of mankind."

The red old man's words were a bit strange.

For a moment, Qin Shaochen didn't know how to respond.

After a pause, Qin Shaochen tried to ask:

"From your tone, could it be that you... are not a human being?"

"Of course not, have you ever seen someone with such red skin?"

Qin Shaochen rubbed his nose helplessly.

The old man's skin was indeed a little too red.

It looked a little weird.

It was even a little scary!

"May I ask who you are?"

"Guess."

The old man Hong was still talking nonsense.

"You are a demon."

Following Heishi during this period of time has greatly increased Qin Shaochen's knowledge.

Heishi once told him that there are some demon tribes living in the north and south ends of Lingwu Continent.

There are not too many of them, and they like to be enemies with people.

From time to time, there are some that can sneak into the areas controlled by humans.

The old man looks weird, could he be a demon lurking in the Great Chu Kingdom?

"No, demons have demonic auras, do you think I have that kind of stench?"

The old man Hong shook his head.

"Could it be that you are a demon?"

"Nonsense, I hate demons the most, and I am here to defeat them."

"You look smart, why are you so stupid?"

"Can you guess riddles? You just guess without thinking!"

Qin Shaochen apologized quickly.

"Forget it, forget it, I won't play dumb with you!"

The red old man was obviously defeated.

"I'd better tell you my true identity!"

"If I let you guess, I guess you, a stupid boy, won't guess it right even if you guess it ten thousand times."

The old man shook his head and sighed.

He was deeply disappointed with a human who couldn't guess riddles.

"Let me tell you, I'm not a demon, nor a demon, but..."

Having said this, the old man lowered his voice a little and whispered:

"A drop of blood!"

"What?"

Qin Shaochen thought he heard it wrong, and couldn't help but touch his ears.

The red old man smiled a little proudly.

"You heard me right, I'm not a human, but a drop of blood, a drop of blood essence."

"Of course, I'm not just ordinary blood essence, but the blood essence of a dragon!"

"Dragon! Blood essence!"

Qin Shaochen opened his mouth wide, not knowing how to express it.

Old Man Hong nodded proudly.

"You... are the blood essence of a dragon, what you said... is true?"

After a long while, Qin Shaochen could continue to speak.

"Could it be that there are really dragons in this world?"

In fact, he had heard a lot of legends about dragons.

When he was still in Zhangjiajie, he heard people say that there were dragons in the sky, which could call the wind and rain, cross the sky, and were amazing!

However, the person who said it and the person who heard it were just bragging, and no one really believed it.

Who would have thought that today he would actually encounter something related to dragons.

"Nonsense, of course there are!"

Old Man Hong was a little dissatisfied.

"Alas! Lord Shenlong has been away from this continent for only tens of thousands of years, but I didn't expect humans to forget his existence."

"No wonder Lord Shenlong always says that human hearts are too complicated and we can't trust humans too much."

The old man in red kept shaking his head and complaining.

"Back then, the dragons and humans were close comrades-in-arms."

"In order to maintain the peace of this continent, our two families fought bloody battles together and risked their lives to fight against the demons."

"After a thousand years of war, we finally drove the demons out."

"I didn't expect that Lord Shenlong would lead the dragon clan across the sky to hunt down the enemy. But in just tens of thousands of years, you humans have forgotten the great dragon clan."

"You are really ungrateful!"

"This..."

Qin Shaochen had never heard of those things.

It felt novel and a little embarrassed.

"In fact, we haven't forgotten you either."

"I heard about the legend of dragons when I was very young."

"I know that your dragon clan is very powerful and majestic, and is a very remarkable existence."

Qin Shaochen had to quibble.

"It's just that you left for tens of thousands of years."

"The normal lifespan of us humans is only about a hundred years."

"It's not surprising that a generation has not seen a dragon. It's also reasonable that two generations have not seen a dragon."

"But if several generations, or even dozens of generations have not seen one, of course they will regard your story as a legend."

"After such a long time, it is normal to forget and not be able to distinguish the truth from the false."

When the old man Hong heard this, he seemed to think that what Qin Shaochen said made sense, so he nodded.

"That's true. As the saying goes, seeing is believing."

"Having not seen you for tens of thousands of years, you will naturally regard everything we have done as an illusion."

Qin Shaochen suddenly became energetic.

"Senior, the main reason why humans regard you as a myth is not because we are forgetful, but because you hide it too well."

"For example, you, the senior, stay in this place for years and months without going out."

"And in this place, the environment is so bad, how many people can come in."

"As long as the senior can leave here, walk outside more, and interact with humans more, we will naturally not forget your existence!"

"Nonsense!"

Unexpectedly, Qin Shaochen's good intentions attracted a contempt from the old man Hong.

"Do you think I don't want to go outside?"

"But if I leave, what should I do here?"

The old man pointed to the big black hole on the ground.

"Should we allow the remnants of the demons to escape from here and wreak havoc on the world?"
