Chapter 404: Chapter 403: Underground Tunnel Chapter 404: Chapter 403: Underground Tunnel “Little Deer, have you found anything on your side?”

After finishing the fruit and resting for a while, Shao Zifeng began to look for a way out.

Little Deer controlled the starlight to search for protrusions or indentations on the rock face.

If they were lucky, perhaps they could use these unique spots as rest points to climb back to the land like ascending stairs.

“Yo~”

Little Deer shook its head; much of the vast crevice looked as though it had been split open by an axe, making the rock face relatively flat and smooth.

Only the platform where they stood jutted out due to the unique rock composition at their feet.

Hearing this news, Shao Zifeng’s face changed expressions rapidly as he glanced at the toothed dragon standing obediently beside him.

Previously, he had thought of a plan, which was to let Qiuqiu carry the toothed dragon up a distance and have the toothed dragon use Rockslide to create indented rock caves on the cliff. They could use these created niches as steps to accomplish their escape.

This method sounded reliable, but it was fraught with great risks. The rocks here were like one piece, and frequently attacking the rock face with skills could very likely cause the entire rock face to detach, and by then, not even gods could save them.

Therefore, unless absolutely necessary, he really did not want to take this risk.

“Yo yo~”

Just as Shao Zifeng hesitated, Little Deer came over and gently nudged him with its small head.

“I’m fine, hmm? What have you found?” Shao Zifeng snapped back to reality and quickly looked at Little Deer.

“Yo~”

Little Deer looked up at a spot on the rock wall, its eyes twinkling with stardust.

A vine crawled out from a peak in the rock, climbing up along the fissures in the rock wall, and finally stopped at an area filled with cracks.

With the faint luminescence of the starlight, Shao Zifeng discovered that it was precisely the spot where Qiuqiu had previously collided.

Shao Zifeng observed carefully, but from his position, he could see nothing but radial cracks.

“Little Deer, take me up there.”

“Yo~” Little Deer shook its head, turned to look at the toothed dragon, and cried, “Yo yo!”

“Gurgle.”

The toothed dragon glanced at Shao Zifeng, emitting a low sound from its throat, uncertain whether it was in agreement or opposition.

Following that, two vines wrapped around the toothed dragon’s body like snakes, lifting it up to the spot of the collision.

“Yo yo~”

Little Deer directed from below, the toothed dragon nodded slightly, its jaws wrapped around its teeth emitting a faint white glow.

“Hey, little one, be careful.”

The toothed dragon paused, then opened its mouth and bit towards the rocks at the collision spot.

“Gurgle!”

Crack.

The toothed dragon’s sharp teeth fiercely bit into a piece of rock, then it shook its head, and the entire rock instantly fell off, turning into powdered gravel in its mouth.

“Well done!”

Seeing the power of its strike, Shao Zifeng could not help but praise aloud.

The toothed dragon heard the praise, its body stiffened, it tightened its little face, turned its head away from him, and its drooping tail swung from side to side.

“Yo!”

“Gurgle!”

Once.

Twice.

Rubble and powder fell like rain on the platform, and after using the Bite skill several times consecutively, the toothed dragon gradually showed signs of fatigue, and its breathing became hurried.

“Maybe take a break.”

“Gurgle!”

The toothed dragon ignored Shao Zifeng, its teeth emitting a cold light as they twinkled with white luminescence, its gaze stubborn.

Crack!

Another rock shattered under its sharp teeth, sprinkling fragments like raindrops on the platform, creating a crisp sound.

Then, a faint whining sound suddenly emerged from the silent and dark chasm.

Shao Zifeng froze and looked up toward the location of the young toothed dragon.

Under the glow of starlight, fine dust continually blew out from the impact crater, outlining the path of the airflow.

Ecstatic, Shao Zifeng licked his dry lips and murmured, “Wind… it’s wind.”

Wind meant there was a connection to the outside world.

“Little Deer, hurry and get me up there.”

“Yo~”

Little Deer nodded, wrapping two vines around Shao Zifeng’s waist. Feeling it was a bit insecure, it added two more vines for reinforcement.

The closer he got to the impact crater, the more excited Shao Zifeng became.

Stepping on a slightly sunken rock, a warm breeze hit his face, making him unable to resist the urge to investigate further.

In his haste, he cleared away the broken rocks, revealing an opening with tooth marks. He was about to enter when he realized that the vines on his body were taut, preventing him from moving any further.

Just as he was about to speak, a dark shadow flashed from the corner of his eye, and the young toothed dragon, bound in vines, was thrown into the hole.

“Little Deer, this…”

Looking down at Little Deer below, the young toothed dragon was not his pet after all, and it somewhat felt like exploiting child labor.

Little Deer casually turned its head, as if it hadn’t done anything just now.

“Gurgle.”

Moments later, the young toothed dragon, with a piece of rock on its head, peeked out of the hole, nodded slightly at Shao Zifeng, then moved aside.

Clinging to the edge of the rock hole, Shao Zifeng, dressed in bulky protective gear, squeezed into the hole with difficulty.

The first feeling upon entering was warmth; warm, moist air kept coming from one side, and the air was not stale or musty.

At that moment, Little Deer, casting starlight, jumped into the hole, bringing the inside scenery into view.

This was a circular natural tunnel, just tall enough for Shao Zifeng to stand upright. Perhaps because of seepage, there were small stalactites hanging from the top of the tunnel.

Beyond that, they had entered from the middle of the tunnel, with deep passages in both directions.

After some thought, Shao Zifeng decided to continue exploring in the direction the wind was blowing from, since there was a greater likelihood of finding an exit there than on the other side.

“Little Deer, spread the starlight out a bit.”

“Yo~”

With the help of the starlight for illumination, Shao Zifeng steadied himself on the tunnel walls, carefully avoiding the stalactites overhead.

Because he was wearing slip-resistant boots, the metal soles clinked against the rocks, echoing through the deep cave.

Not knowing how long he had walked, Shao Zifeng was already sweating profusely, the initial joy of discovering the cave slowly fading, with new doubts lingering in his mind.

He felt he was heading downward, and being underground to an unknown depth upon entry, going further down…

Feeling the airflow in the air, Shao Zifeng shook his head.

At the very least, there was a higher probability that this was an exit.

As they ventured deeper, a faint light vaguely appeared ahead in the tunnel, and what thrilled him most was the hint of water sounds near his ears.

Excited, Shao Zifeng quickened his pace.

After turning a bend, the rock walls of the tunnel abruptly ended, replaced by a pure ice-blue tunnel; the ice crystals shimmered under the starlight.

Shao Zifeng and his companions were captivated by these ice crystals, looking up unconsciously as they walked when suddenly he slipped and crashed into Little Deer.

“Damn it.”

Only when he tumbled to the ground and involuntarily started sliding downhill did Shao Zifeng realize this was an inclined ice crystal tunnel.

Melting ice water continued to flow down the sloping tunnel, and Shao Zifeng, unable to react in time, grasped Little Deer and speedily rushed downwards.

Behind him, the young toothed dragon’s gaze flickered, and with a grit of its teeth, it too leaped down.
