Marvel Superheroes in China

At this moment, Chongming gave Qin Wu a wink, and Qin Wu immediately flew to the island in the middle of the lake, picked the last fruit, and after the fruit was picked, the dragon scale wood withered rapidly and finally turned into a pile of dust, disappearing into the world.

Seeing that he had the fruit in hand, Chongming gave the rhinoceros beetle a meaningful look, then turned and flew with Qin Wu into the distant forest.

Half a day later, 493 hours later, Chongming suddenly stopped and looked at Qin Wu with a smile.

Qin Wu was slightly taken aback, then threw the Dragon Scale Fruit over. Chongming caught the fruit with its dragon claws, examined it carefully, and then casually threw it back.

"Give it to you."

Qin Wu stared in astonishment at Chong Ming, who remained calm. "Isn't this what you've been longing for? You just gave it to me so casually?"

Could it be... that this little dragon was putting on an act the whole time, and that something else actually summoned him, and he foolishly thought that was what it wanted?

Holy crap, I was actually looked down upon by a minor brat!

Chongming saw Qin Wu's confusion and his eyes showed a disdainful look: "That's right, what summoned me was something else, something like this. I can eat fruit in the Chaotic Star Sea and it's better than this. Do you really think I'm some low-level demon?"

"Come with me, I'll show you something!"

After saying that, it flew towards the large lake it had just seen.

Chapter 437: The Water Mansion (1)

The two quietly returned to the lakeside, and after carefully confirming that no one was around, Chongming plunged into the water.

It was underwater that Qin Wu sensed the power of the dragon race. Chongming carried him swiftly through the lake, like an arrow released from a bow, yet not a single ripple was emitted.

In an instant, they arrived at the island in the middle of the lake. Then, Chongming led him downstream, and they swam to a depth of about 100 meters before stopping.

Before them stood a stone wall about five zhang high and three zhang wide, its surface smooth as a mirror, its material unknown.

Chongming looked at the stone wall with a solemn expression. Then he opened his mouth and spat out a mouthful of blood essence onto the door. The blood essence was actually a faint dark gold color.

After vomiting blood, Chongming's eyes showed a hint of exhaustion.

"Kakaka..."

The smooth, mirror-like stone wall split open in the middle, then slowly opened to both sides, with a sliver of light shining through the crack.

This smooth stone wall was actually a doorway! And there was a whole new world inside!

A look of shock flashed in Qin Wu's eyes; so this was the real treasure.

After the gate was fully opened, Chongming turned around and said, "Keep the ancestor's scales close to your body, otherwise I won't be able to save you if something happens."

Qin Wu immediately took out the dragon scale, put it into his pocket, and then he and Chongming carefully entered the passage.

Beyond the stone gate was a long flight of blue stone steps. After climbing the steps, their view suddenly opened up, and a huge hall appeared before them.

The hall is surrounded by four huge stone pillars, which are carved with four different mythical beasts and some mysterious patterns. A huge pearl is set on the dome, and the light from the pearl illuminates the hall in every detail.

"hold head high!"

The moment Qin Wu stepped into the hall, a majestic dragon's roar resounded in his mind. Qin Wu immediately took a few steps back, and a sweet, metallic taste rose in his throat.

Compared to the roar of the dragon in the vast ocean, it was like comparing the bright moon to a firefly.

At this moment, a cool sensation came from the dragon scales on his chest, and Qin Wu's frustration instantly vanished.

Qin Wu stared in horror at Chongming, only to see a trace of pain on Chongming's face, as if he too had suffered a considerable shock.

Having prepared themselves, the two continued walking forward. A heavy pressure swept over them, and Qin Wu felt his soul tremble. He felt an urge to kneel down.

This is a natural suppression of lower life forms by higher life forms.

The two walked forward with difficulty for 500 meters, and in the hall, an octagonal ancient well appeared in front of them.

A walnut-sized, dark golden sphere floated above the ancient well, with streams of milky white spiritual energy emerging from the inlet and disappearing into the dark golden sphere.

Qin Wu could sense that the source of the oppressive aura in the entire hall was that dark golden bead.

"Could that be... a Dragon Ball?"

Chongming looked at the dark golden bead with a longing look in his eyes. He nodded involuntarily and said, "That's right, that is a dragon bead, a real dragon bead."

"I don't know which dragon ancestor preserved his dragon pearl on his deathbed, and used the Four Symbols Binding Spirit Array to draw innate spiritual energy to nourish the dragon pearl. It is this dragon pearl that has been calling to me."

Before he finished speaking, Chongming flew toward the dark golden dragon pearl. However, the closer he got to the dragon pearl, the greater the pressure he felt. When he was still thirty meters away from the dragon pearl, Chongming was like an earthworm slowly wriggling in the void.

At this moment, Qin Wu also walked towards the Dragon Pearl. Gradually, he reached Chongming's position, but he was surprised to find that he still had the strength to move forward.

Chongming slowly turned his neck, staring at Qin Wu in shock, and said incredulously, "How is this possible! Even I, a pure-blooded dragon descendant, couldn't get close, yet you still have the strength to move forward!"

Qin Wu thought for a moment, then took a square jade pendant from his neck and hung it on Chongming's dragon claw.

This was the Mingxin Pendant that Chimingzi had given him before. Just now, he discovered that this jade pendant could actually help him resist this enormous mental pressure.

The next moment, a strange light flashed in Chongming's eyes, and he continued to fly forward slowly, not very slowly, but much faster than before.

Half an hour later, Chongming finally flew (manoho) to the bottom of the Dragon Ball. He raised his head and spewed out a black mist from his mouth, enveloping the Dragon Ball. Slowly, the Dragon Ball shifted slightly towards him.

Four hours later, the Dragon Ball finally slowly fell into Chongming's mouth. His face was full of exhaustion, but his eyes revealed a hint of excitement.

Qin Wu, who was cultivating with his eyes closed, suddenly felt the oppressive aura in the hall disappear completely. So he opened his eyes and saw Zhong Ming looking at him with a smile.

"You could have easily gone up and taken the Dragon Ball, so why did you give me the jade pendant instead?"

Qin Wu smiled slightly and said firmly, "My own path is the strongest path; why should I rely on others?"

Chapter 438: The Mysterious Black Bead (2)

Chongming's expression froze slightly, and he looked at Qin Wu with a hint of surprise in his eyes.

He then smiled slightly and said, "I don't know if you're arrogant or confident, but it's fortunate that you didn't touch that Dragon Ball, otherwise you might be nothing but bones by now."

Qin Wu didn't speak, but slowly walked towards the ancient well, watching the milky white spiritual energy rising from it.

"Is this innate spiritual energy?"

Chongming looked at the ancient well and said, "That's right, this is the most precious thing in Yingzhou. Everyone comes here to obtain a wisp of innate spiritual energy and then use its power to advance to the Grandmaster realm."

Qin Wu used his mental power to guide a wisp of innate spiritual energy and inhale it. Instantly, he felt as if he were floating on clouds, and he even felt like he was drunk, feeling dizzy and lightheaded.

Qin Wu quickly sat down cross-legged to calm his mind. Finally, the wisp of spiritual energy slowly sank into his dantian. 493 began to rotate slowly like a nebula. A warm feeling spread to his limbs and bones. This feeling was as if he was carrying a small spiritual vein.

A moment later, Qin Wu opened his eyes, looked regretfully at the primordial spiritual energy gathered above the ancient well, and sighed slightly: "What a pity, such a good thing can't be taken away."

Then he looked at Chongming with a puzzled expression and said, "Don't you need it?"

A slight smile appeared on Chongming's lips as he said calmly, "Once I digest this dragon pearl, I can smoothly enter the Nascent Soul realm. Why should I pursue the trivial at the expense of the essential? However... who says this spiritual energy cannot be taken away?"

Before he finished speaking, he spat out a small, silvery-white pot from his mouth. The pot was only about half the size of a palm and had some intricate patterns engraved on it, making it look ancient and mysterious.

To Qin Wu's astonishment, the small pot flipped and flew into the void, its spout opening as if a whale were sucking in water, continuously drawing in milky-white innate spiritual energy.

In less than a minute, hundreds of strands of innate spiritual energy were absorbed into the small pot, until finally, no more spiritual energy emerged from the ancient well.

Chongming tossed the small silver pot from his dragon claw to Qin Wu and said:

"Consider this your reward for helping me obtain the Dragon Balls. It should be worth much more than a dozen divine weapons. However, this Silver Moon Pot is only a temporary loan to you. Remember to return it to me next time you come to the Chaotic Star Sea."

Qin Wu looked at the heavy silver moon pot in his hand, a complex expression on his face. It contained hundreds of strands of innate spiritual energy. If he brought it back, it would be equivalent to hundreds of human grandmasters, greatly enhancing the strength of Earth.

He bowed deeply to Chongming, his expression solemn, "Martial prowess will surely be rewarded!"

Chongming's face showed a hint of disgust, and he said impatiently, "I hate this kind of sour talk the most. It makes me feel uncomfortable. Move aside, I need to take out the last treasure here."

Qin Wu smiled slightly and said nothing more, but he was indeed very curious about the last treasure that Chongming mentioned. He took a few steps back and stared intently at Chongming.

At this moment, Chongming sprayed a mouthful of black smoke into the ancient well.

"Rumble..."

The next moment, a sound like a torrent of water rang out from the ancient well, and the entire hall shook. A huge crack appeared on the floor of the hall, and Qin Wu immediately took to the air to avoid falling.

Chongming's face was already flushed red. He let out a clear whistle, and a string of black beads carrying a black mist flew out of the ancient well. The black beads spun around in the void.

At this moment, one of the round beads lost control and broke free from the dense black mist, and the other black round beads also showed signs of breaking free from control.

Instantly, Chongming's expression changed drastically. He quickly stabilized his spiritual power and tried his best to control the remaining black orbs.

The uncontrolled orb flew towards Qin Wu, and for a moment, Qin Wu felt as if he were facing a mountain collapsing and a tsunami crashing down. Ripples appeared in the void.

Qin Wu felt an overwhelming sense of invincibility. At that moment, the mantra of the Drilling Fist in Xingyi Quan came to mind.

"The fist-shaped motion resembles waves in water, drawing in kidney water to nourish heart fire. A gentle breeze stirs the moon in the sky, as we quietly watch the Weaver Girl weave her jade shuttle."

Chongming saw the black bead fly towards Qin Wu and was about to speak when he saw Qin Wu move his spear, the tip of which gently pierced the bead.

Qin Wu trembled, and his spear slowly drew a circle to deflect the earth-shattering power of the black bead. At that moment, Qin Wu's entire body faintly emitted a black, eerie light, just like the black bead.

A similar eerie light rose from the black bead, expanding and contracting with Qin Wu's breath, as if it had come to life.

Chongming stared at Qin Wu in astonishment, his mouth agape, his expression as if he had seen a ghost.

After a moment, Chongming slowly controlled the agitation of the black bead. After a tremor, the black bead was absorbed into Chongming's stomach.

Just then, the entire hall shook violently, and the four huge stone pillars collapsed with a crash. Chongming's expression changed, and he wrapped Qin Wu in his long tail and quickly left the hall.

"boom……"

Just as they left, the hall was instantly buried by boulders.

Chongming glanced at Qin Wu, who was still deep in thought with his eyes closed, a complex expression appearing in his eyes, before swimming upwards.
