King Ember's Journey to Tevat

Chapter 628 The heart is the world
"Crack!"

The embers stepped on the fleshy wall that might have been Apep's trachea, making a crisp sound like the breaking of dead leaves.

"Boom!"

The huge passage with no end in sight began to vibrate, and then the flesh walls on both sides began to expand and contract regularly.

Then, the surroundings suddenly became brighter - Apep opened his big mouth. Along with the influx of light, roaring winds followed one after another.

The strong wind carried infinite power from the inside out, and seemed to want to blow out everything in the chest that did not belong to the Grass Dragon.

It's a pity that this strong wind is destined to be in vain. Putting aside the embers that tightly cling to the flesh wall, this strong wind blows from an unknown depth, and it doesn't bring any dirt with it.

Touching his dry breastplate, Yi Yan could not help but shake his head and sighed: "There is no phlegm at all. This throat is so dry."

"Hmm... maybe it's not illness, but staying in the desert for a long time?" Yi Yan thought of another possibility.

Maybe Apep's throat was so dry not because she was sick, but because she was stuck in the desert all the time.

However, as the embers advanced, Apep's dry throat originated from the desert, which automatically broke through without attacking.

"What is this? The black mud of the giant rock abyss? It's a little too thin, right?" In front, there was suddenly a touch of black on the flesh wall that was like countless old giant vines intertwined and intertwined.

Ember came over and took a look. It was too dark and couldn't see clearly.

"Open your mouth!!!" Yi Yan stood on the spot and yelled at the surroundings. His voice was so loud that even the darkness attached to Apep's flesh shook several times.

Apep made no move.

"Boom!!!"

The flesh and blood of the grass dragon near the embers, which had the same texture as old wood, began to ripple like water. These ripples continued for a long time, spreading along the trachea to Apep's throat and to her internal organs.

"hiss……"

The light poured in along with the faint sound of inhalation, and the huge trachea suddenly became bright again.

"Phew! Remember to listen to the doctor next time." Yi Yan blew on his fist and shouted loudly.

Then he didn't care whether Apep heard it or not, and directly used the light to observe the darkness next to him.

The darkness clinging to Apep's flesh was neither pure abyss power like what Ember saw, nor was it like the black mud in the rocky abyss.

Its state is somewhere in between, like a puddle of viscous liquid.

Near this viscous liquid, the power of the Grass Dragon is still fighting.

Surrounded by this pitch-black area, Apep's flesh and blood is an extremely deep dark green. At first glance, an inattentive person might actually mistake it for black.

Among the dark green intertwined vines, densely packed tender roots grow out. They penetrate deep into the darkness and absorb the possible "nutrients" from it.

"What is this called..., what is this called...?" Yi Jin looked at the scene in front of him and felt inexplicably familiar.

"According to you humans, it should be nutrient solution?"

"Yes! It's the nutrient solution!"

Ember clapped his hands and said with sudden realization. This thing seems to be used for growing vegetables?

"I followed your human method and rubbed the things in my body like this, hoping it would make me feel better." Apep's voice seemed to come from all directions, and it was extremely hoarse.

Looking at the vines that were about to move nearby, Yi Yan took a few steps back. He raised his head and said to Apep:
"Also, I'm different from the humans here. I just have a name. Can't I be so malicious?"

"I can see that humans can't be so strong." Apep's tone was a little weak. She still hadn't recovered from the punch that Yi Yan had just given her in the stomach.

"Then you are still attacking me?" The intertwined vines were untied, and they turned into long whips that broke the sound of the wind, whipping the embers that were hiding in all directions.

"Sorry, this is the stress response of my self-healing system. I can't control it, just stay away."

Apep explained with some embarrassment. After hearing this, Yi Yan stopped fussing and strode directly deeper into Apep's body.

Then he was whipped away.

"boom!"

After falling to the ground, Yi Yan flipped over like a carp. He looked at the dancing vines that filled the entire space, and wondered whether Apep had mutated after eating too many terrestrial octopuses. "This... this is a bit of a test of my physical skills." The sight of the demons dancing in front of him successfully made Yi Yan wipe the non-existent sweat from his forehead.

Unexpectedly, in the depths of Apep's body, the "nutrient solution" kneaded by the forbidden power was everywhere, which also caused the strange scene of tentacles in front of Ember.

"Did you see anything?" Apep's voice now clearly came from behind Yi Yan. The voice was a bit muffled, as if it had penetrated many obstacles, which also reflected the depth of Yi Yan's position from the side.

"No. To be honest, I am not actually a doctor. The real doctor is actually the big peach that jumps into your mouth."

"..."

Ember frankly admitted the fact that he had no clue, which naturally caused Apep to remain silent for a while.

"By the way, where's that big peach? Could it be that it really has legs?" Yi Yan reacted belatedly.

He had been running inside Apep's body for so long, why didn't he see the figure of the big peach?
Even if it really has long legs, it can't run faster than me.

"It doesn't have legs, it just ran into the world inside my body." The silent Apep finally stopped being silent, and she responded to Ember with some pain in her balls, even though her own dragon did not have balls.

"Huh..., I should have used the vines to pull you out from the beginning." After feeling the situation of the world inside his body, Apep felt even more helpless.

If you were outside, you could see Apep's speechless and twisted dragon face.

"Human, get ready, I'll take you in!"

"My name is Ember, thank you."

"Not bad at all."

"Whoosh!"

After a brief exchange, countless blades of grass and flowers suddenly flew from nowhere around the ember.

These vivid things brought long-lost vitality to Apep's dead body, and at the same time, they also tightly wrapped the embers.

When the spinning green disappeared, the place where the ember originally stood was empty.

……

"call!"

Feeling something stepped on under his feet, Yi Yan immediately covered his eyes.

A bunch of scattered leaves and grass were spinning wildly in front of his eyes, making Ember a little dizzy.

"Why does the teleportation here always make people dizzy?" After complaining for a while, Yuan Yan strode towards the new space he came to.

Apep said he was sending Ember to the small world inside his body, but the place in front of him was not a world at all to Ember.

It's really big here, but there are barriers. A dim, huge semi-circular dome that looked like it was carved from dusty emerald was inverted in this space, adding borders visible to the naked eye to a world that should have been borderless.

With visible boundaries, it no longer looks like a world.

Even if there are thick tree roots intertwined here, even if there are dense grass growing here, even if there is mirror-like water flow here...

Looking up at the top of his head, the doubts in Yu Ember's heart disappeared.

"Heart of the Oasis? Send me directly to the heart? Are you afraid that I will blow it up with one punch?"

Of course, the ember is just talk. At the top of this space, several thick green vines grow like big claws, firmly holding a beating green sphere.

There are many dense lines on the sphere. Every time it incites, the lines on it become clearer and more distinct.

This is the heart of the grass dragon, and not just the heart.

"Good guy, it turns out that the world inside your body is your heart?" Yu Jin saw the lines on the heart from a distance and let out an exclamation.

Every road in the heart of the oasis is a majestic mountain range, and every green spot is a vast lake.

"It sounds quite romantic to raise your own dependents with your heart."

Ember touched his chin. This sounded much better than Kutli raising the dragon lizard with his own dead skin.
