Time passed, and in the blink of an eye, Tang Yunqing and Ye Luyao had sunk deep into the forest of "Thousands of Mountains and Rivers" for a month.

During this time, the two of them encountered countless dangers, some from the Aquatic Tribe, some from monsters, some from foreign creatures, and some from the Sea Dragon Guard. At the most dangerous moment, both of them were on the verge of death, but no one came to save them. The despair before death finally made them believe that the God of Courage really let them risk their lives to practice and find no one to protect them secretly.

Although they often met with death, Tang Yunqing and Ye Luyao finally managed to reach a safe area near Wanshui City alive.

In this demon-level death trial, Tang Yunqing and Ye Luyao's strengths have increased greatly. First of all, the compatibility of Tang Yunqing's second, third, and fourth holy pages has increased by one level each. The "God-given Code" is also steadily moving towards the sixth level.

His own strength has reached the fourth-order intermediate, and he is not far from breaking through the fifth-order master.

He has mastered all the changes in the holy courtyard given to him by the Sea Dragon Pearl, and he has also gained a lot in the cultivation of dragon power.

Ye Luyao is very familiar with his human form, and he has inherited the combat experience in the human form in his memory. With the continuous awakening and integration, some methods that can only be used in the dragon form can also be used in the human form, which greatly increases the number of people.

Of course, the most important thing is the relationship between the two. After the life and death battle, they have improved significantly. They deliberately put aside past grudges and can be regarded as friends.

However, friends still quarrel.

At this time, when the two of them were about to leave the forest of "Thousand Mountains and Seas" and arrive at Wanshui City, they quarreled because Ye Luyao felt that he had wasted too much time in "Thousand Mountains and Seas", Tang Yunqing's strength improvement was too slow, and he was too far away from the seventh-level main judge. In addition, he didn't know any news about the endless blue sea, so as long as he was free, he couldn't help thinking and being anxious.

Tang Yunqing knew what she was worried about, so he suppressed his impatience and comforted her, "Don't worry, as soon as we arrive at Wanshui City, we will immediately write to Lord Qi Lin and ask him about the situation in Hailong Emperor City. But according to what you told me before, I don't think you need to worry too much about that information. With the defense capabilities of the Sea Dragon Emperor City, even if we mobilize the seven seas to attack, I'm afraid it will only take a year or two. And I believe that the Sea Dragon Emperor must have some things that even you don't know about."

"But..." Ye Luyao still felt uneasy.

"There's nothing wrong. You have to believe your father. If you don't believe him, who else will? Our top priority now is to seize the time to find Longting and find the heart of the ocean. And you also said, in Longting there are many treasures from before the Great Calamity, some of which can increase the strength of your Sea Dragon Clan. Although I am not a Sea Dragon Clan, I have an intuition that I can also benefit from it because of the Sea Dragon Pearl." Tang Yunqing said.

"Okay... okay, I'll listen to you now, but you have to practice harder. From today on, you don't need to give me the dragon power. You can use it to practice at that hour." Ye Luyao hesitated for a long time and finally made a difficult decision.

"Haste causes waste. I am wise, don't worry." Tang Yunqing could see her inner struggle, so he comforted her with a smile.

After comforting Ye Luyao, Tang Yunqing proposed to speed up and cross the forest of 'thousand mountains and seas' to Wanshui City as soon as possible, and Ye Luyao happily agreed.

Two days later.

Tang Yunqing and Ye Luyao finally reached the boundary of 'Thousand Mountains and Seas'. At this time, they were standing on the edge of a high cliff, looking far to the east, covering the entire Wanshui City.

Wanshui City is a city built on water, there are hundreds of water channels running through the city, the winding water alleys are the city streets, the light and slender boats with unique shapes are the city carriages. The structure of the city is like a giant turtle shell. It is so magnificent that people can't help but sigh at its existence.

The first time Tang Yunqing came to Wanshui City, he felt amazed. However, Ye Luyao was born in the endless blue sea and had seen many more magnificent underwater cities. He didn't think it was anything special. which made Tang Yunqing a little embarrassed.

To Ye Luyao, his appearance just now seemed like a silly boy who had never seen the world.

After observing on the edge of the cliff for a while, Ye Luyao turned and walked down the mountain. Tang Yunqing followed him, saying as he walked, Because the 'Thousand Mountains and Seas' is inland, the number of water tribes is less, has received orders. There are not many Sea Dragon Guards infiltrating, so we can safely cross the "thousand mountains and rivers", but Wanshui City is different. This city is connected to the Path of Truth, and it is also a city within which there must be many aquatic people who have received the news, and there will be Sea Dragon Hunters lurking. There will be no shortage of scouts, so we must be careful."

"Okay"

Ye Luyao replied coldly.

Tang Yunqing was not angry when he heard this and talked about what he should pay attention to after entering the city.

Three hours later.

The two walked out of the forest area of ​​"Thousand Mountains and Seas" and stepped onto the stone road leading to Wanshui City. There were people coming and going on the street, most of them dressed as adventurers and mercenaries, and there were also many freight carriages. It was a lively scene.

Not long after Tang Yunqing and Ye Luyao joined the crowd, they waited for a taxi to return to Wanshui City. After paying the gold coins, they boarded the carriage and enjoyed the comfort they had not seen for a long time.

It was more than seventy miles from the forest area to Wanshui City, and it took more than two hours by taxi.

When they arrived at the gate of Wanshui City, they changed to a boat, the only means of transportation in the city, and spent some money to check into a hotel in the city center. After a short rest, Tang Yunqing knocked on Ye Luyao's door. Together with him, he wrote a letter to Qi Lin, the Lord of the City of Truth. He briefly talked about their journey over the past month and asked about the current status of the Endless Blue Sea and took a boat to the post office to send the letter.

After sending the letter, the two of them did not stroll around, but immediately started the next business. They went to the Adventurer Tavern in Wanshui City to inquire about the unusual water-related events that occurred near Wanshui City where Longting was located, and then used the Sea Dragon Pearl to find the exact location.

According to Ye Luyao's report from the Hai Long Emperor, the Hai Long Pearl would not react until it was at least five miles away from Longting.

The information obtained from the adventurers was very scattered, and most of them were just false rumors. Two or three days had passed, and the two of them had not made any significant progress.

In fact, if you want to know the abnormal events that occurred near Wanshui City, the easiest solution is to find the city lord's mansion, but Tang Yunqing did not dare to go there because he could not reveal his identity.

It should be noted that whether it is the Sea Dragon Clan or the Demon Clan, there must be human spies, and once their identities and positions are exposed, the consequences will be disastrous. Regarding this, both the God of Courage and the City Lord of Truth reminded him, but he was not stupid, knowing what to do.

However, every night when Tang Yunqing lay in bed and thought carefully, he couldn't help but complain. In fact, when the God of Courage and Qi Lin were in the City of Truth, they could have given him the city's diary, which recorded the area of ​​Wanshui City. But they didn't give them a record of the incident. The point was to let the two of them explore and discover for themselves, and the deeper meaning was to let them gain experience.

Sometimes Tang Yunqing wondered, did the God of Courage really not care about his life or death? Thinking carefully about the answer he got made him a little frustrated.

The "hope" that the God of Courage needed was not just the owner of the Sea Dragon Pearl, but a worthy owner of the Sea Dragon Pearl.

Obviously he didn't deserve it now.

The reality was indeed a bit cruel, but it also inspired his fighting spirit and made him practice harder.

At seven o'clock the next morning, Tang Yunqing and Ye Luyao finished breakfast on the second floor of the inn and went out again to gather information about unusual events. Today their target was the information trading market in the east of the city.

Wanshui City was a famous tourist city in the Continent of Law, but it was also a holy land for adventurers. The 'thousand mountains and seas' to the west of the city were full of dangers, but they also produced countless opportunities in the north of the city as many as the stars in the night sky. There were also relics and hidden treasures that could make people rich overnight. It was precisely for this reason that special information was extremely precious in Wanshui City, the more valuable the information, the harder it was to access and purchase it.

Tang Yunqing and Ye Luyao were able to find this trading market information thanks to some adventurers they had spent money on a few days ago.

Forty minutes later.

The two arrived at Muyu Tavern. The tavern was not big, there were only about a dozen tables.

The two of them walked into the Muyu Tavern, and before they could sit down, a middle-aged man wearing a dark green security uniform came over and said, "Good morning, both of you. We are a private club here and we need a recommendation letter from a member to enter."

"Our recommender is named 'Guo Shilin' and this is his recommendation letter."

After Tang Yunqing heard this, he immediately took out a letter from his jacket pocket and handed it to the security guard. However, the security guard did not accept the letter and said without thinking, "Sorry, we don't have member Guo Shilin's name here."

"Um?"

Tang Yunqing saw the serious look of the security guard and knew that he was not lying. In other words, he and Ye Luyao had been deceived by the man named Guo Shilin. He couldn't help but feel angry in his heart, angry at Guo Shilin, but also angry at himself.

Without a recommendation letter, information could not be purchased in the Muyu Tavern. Without the ability to purchase information, the two people's search for Longting would be delayed. This not only made him upset, but Ye Luyao on the side also frowned slightly.

Just as the security guard politely asked the two of them to go out, and Tang Yunqing was thinking about how to say something, a handsome young man suddenly stood up from the window seat not far away. In front of him, Tang Yunqing spoke to him with a humble expression. Tang Yunqing heard the whole sentence clearly, but he didn't understand it because the young man was not speaking the common language of the human race, but the language of the Sea Dragon clan.

Tang Yunqing suddenly became very alert, and with a slight movement of his right hand, he was about to summon the Code of Truth.
