Dragon Hidden in the Sky

Chapter 1184 Ye Qing's Analysis

Long Rui shook her head and said, "Even if it existed, it would have long since disappeared over the endless years. In short, I don't know. All I know is a map of Verati City!"

Ye Qing's expression was somewhat unpleasant. He felt that he had acted somewhat impulsively. He had come out of Silent Hill without any knowledge of it, and now he was facing such a strange situation.

He thought that Long Rui knew the city very well and seemed to know every road by heart. He believed that as long as they walked on the marked golden road, they would be fine!

Therefore, he did not take the words "lost" on the parchment to heart.

But now, just as the parchment described, they seem to be truly trapped in a dead end.

Long Rui's pretty face was filled with shock. She thought carefully and said, "No, something feels wrong. I've memorized this route countless times; there's no way I could have gone wrong..."

“Perhaps!” Ye Qing took a deep breath and said, “From the very beginning, we were misled by the creatures here. And our situation…”

At this point, Ye Qing looked at Long Rui and asked, "Have you ever heard of being trapped in a maze?"

"What do you mean by 'being trapped in a wall'?" Long Rui asked in confusion.

Ye Qing smiled bitterly, "It seems we've fallen for that thing's trick." He looked at the white figure in front of the house in the distance.

"You mean, everything we're experiencing now is caused by him, that we're trapped in an illusion, and no matter which way we go, we can't get out of this place?" Long Rui asked.

Ye Qing nodded and said, "That's most likely the case. We were tricked without our knowledge. My mental power couldn't detect it at all. This means that this illusion is something we can't solve at all!"

“Most importantly, we know absolutely nothing about Silent Hill, or the darkness of Silent Hill!” Ye Qing took a deep breath.

"What should we do then?" Long Rui asked.

Ye Qing stroked his chin thoughtfully. He looked at the white figure and said, "We need to calm down. First of all, our being trapped here is definitely related to her, but she hasn't chosen to attack us. There are two possibilities: one, she treats us like playthings; the other is... she can't attack us, but wants to increase our fear by making us walk around here!"

“If it’s the former, we’re most likely… doomed!” Ye Qing said. “If it’s the latter, we still have a glimmer of hope.”

Ye Qing pondered for a moment and said, "In any case, we can't continue blindly on this path!"

"This place is a completely different world during the day and at night!" Ye Qing said. "I don't even know if everything during the day was an illusion, or if everything now is an illusion! Let's... wait! Maybe we can leave this place when it gets light!"

"Leave this place?" Long Rui asked. "Then are we not going to search for treasure anymore?"

"Let's talk about this after we survive!" Ye Qing said. "We can't get out of Silent Hill anytime soon. Our priority is to figure out what kind of place Silent Hill is, understand its rules, and then take action. That will give us a much better chance!"

Long Rui looked at Ye Qing. In fact, she had already lost her composure. Seeing Ye Qing so calm, she felt much more at ease and unconsciously followed Ye Qing's advice!

“Let’s wait for dawn. Judging by the time, we should have been walking for several hours!” Ye Qing said.

“Okay!” Long Rui nodded.

They found an open space and waited calmly.

Time passed second by second, but after a long time, Ye Qing's scalp began to tingle.

He felt like a day or two had passed, and there was still no sign of dawn in the surrounding area!

Ye Qing knew she was in big trouble.

Long Rui panicked completely and said, "Ye Qing, are we... going to be trapped here forever?"

Ye Qing frowned as he stared at the woman in the distance.

The woman in white stopped smiling at Ye Qing and the others. Instead, she stood in front of the house, looking at the dark night sky in the distance. Ye Qing even sensed a trace of sadness emanating from her, as if she were waiting for something.

"Now... the only key to breaking this deadlock is this woman!" Ye Qing gritted his teeth and said, "She seemed to have asked us just now if we came to find the Heart of the Dragon. What is the Heart of the Dragon?"

Long Rui pondered for a long time before looking at Ye Qing and saying, "This is the purpose of my trip. This is the heart left behind by a dragon king after its death. It contains the purest power of the dragon king's entire life. If I obtain it and absorb its energy, I can guarantee that I will reach at least the realm of a saint!"

Ye Qing's pupils contracted slightly.

"In short... no matter what, we have to find a way to get out of this predicament through this woman!" With that, Ye Qing took a deep breath and then slowly walked forward.

……

While Ye Qing and his group were trapped in that area, on the other side!

In the darkness, Sun Jie held an ancient book in her hand. The book emitted a golden light that enveloped her, filling her with a sense of holiness. This sense of holiness made her seem incredibly safe!

She walked along the street.

Compared to Ye Qing and Long Rui, who encountered many troubles, she seemed to be doing very well.

At this moment, she had arrived in front of a bridge.

She was just about to cross the bridge when suddenly her brows furrowed. Looking down, she discovered that the stone bridge steps were covered with writing!

"Ok?"

Sun Jie's heart skipped a beat, and she quickly moved closer.

These words are filled with a sense of time, and the language used is not the universal language used in the world today, but Sun Jie seems to be able to understand them.

She held the golden ancient book in one hand, and with the other hand, she took out a light source and shone it on the stone slab.

"This...is related to the history of the destruction of the Chaotic Star Sea!" Sun Jie was overjoyed!
