I didn't know the name of the middle-aged man, but he was older than He Si, so He Si referred to him as Brother Luo. This boat was rented from him.
Following the direction of his finger, I looked over and was immediately astonished, my mouth agape. Not far ahead, the calm surface of the lake suddenly erupted into a massive wave.
The originally tranquil water split apart, and under the moonlight, I could clearly see a huge black figure darting across the lake bottom like lightning.
"Master, what is that?" I could hardly believe my eyes.
"It's a dragon, the Divine Dragon," He Si said, equally shocked but with an unusually firm tone.
"Brother Luo, hurry and have someone chase after it," Gu Chen said, his expression changing as he quickly addressed Brother Luo beside him.
Upon hearing this, Brother Luo nodded eagerly and replied, "Alright, Senior Gu, I'm on it." Without another word, he turned and swiftly walked towards the cabin.
At that moment, Mingyue and Mu Yan also emerged from inside. Upon seeing the black shadow racing across the lake like lightning, they were equally stunned, their gazes instantly drawn to it.
The shadow in the lake moved rapidly; in the blink of an eye, it had already dashed thousands of meters away. This couldn't help but cause a flicker of anxiety on Gu Chen's and He Si's faces.
Fortunately, with Brother Luo going to give orders, the boat soon started up and turned its course to chase after the direction where the shadow had vanished.
"It has been gone for so long; it finally shows itself again," He Si remarked with a hint of emotion as he watched the boat speed toward that direction.
Gu Chen remained silent, but I looked at He Si with some confusion and asked, "Fourth Brother, was that really a dragon?"
Although I had already convinced myself that the black shadow was indeed the Divine Dragon, I still found it hard to believe and needed to ask again.
He Si nodded and firmly replied once more, "Absolutely."
"Then even if we catch up to it, how can we take blood from it?" The shadow had been in the water, but just its traces showed how enormous it truly was.
The dragon was so enormous, especially being in the water; I could hardly imagine trying to draw blood from it.
When I asked this, He Si looked at me, about to respond, but suddenly fell silent. He shrugged and turned his gaze toward Gu Chen.
I felt speechless; it seemed that He Si was just as helpless.
At the same time, my eyes shifted to Gu Chen.
Gu Chen's expression remained unchanged as he calmly said, "All things in heaven and earth possess spirit. The Divine Dragon has a spirit; we just need to catch up with it."
"But even if we catch up, we still won't be able to draw Dragon Blood from it," I replied, still confused by Gu Chen's words.
He hesitated slightly and said, "Since it has a spirit, pursuing it will inevitably provoke its anger. At that point, it will naturally reveal itself before us, and we can then wait for an opportunity. As long as we find where the Divine Dragon is, there will always be a chance."
"That's right; we've been following it for so long that it should be getting angry," Gu Chen's voice had barely faded when He Si suddenly realized something, appearing somewhat excited and expectant.
But my expression changed; I couldn't shake the feeling that this method seemed rather inappropriate.
What would happen if a mythical Divine Dragon became enraged?
Moreover, we were in the water; I truly couldn't imagine the consequences if it stirred up monstrous waves.
As if sensing my thoughts, Gu Chen glanced at me and said lightly, "Don't worry. The Divine Dragon is a totem of our Huaxia; it's a divine beast. Unlike some other creatures that kill when angry or stir up trouble, even if it does get angry, it will only try to shake us off or make us retreat."
His words eased my mind a bit, and I nodded slightly.
The boat moved swiftly through the waves, but it still couldn't keep pace with the massive shadow ahead. Perhaps it had already submerged beneath the sea and vanished from our sight.
Brother Luo had already dashed out from the cabin again and stood beside us. Everyone was fixated on the surface of the lake around us.
"Brother Luo, go tell the pilot in the cabin to stop the boat," Gu Chen said with a sigh, knowing that the Divine Dragon had sunk to the bottom of the lake.
Brother Luo nodded and replied, "No need to go over." He shook the walkie-talkie in his hand and said, "I just took out the walkie-talkie." Then he began to give instructions into it.
Gu Chen and He Si remained silent, their gazes fixed on the lake's surface, which was gradually calming down, as if still searching for the Divine Dragon's silhouette.
They felt helpless about its disappearance.
Suddenly, a loud "boom" echoed, and splashes erupted as towering waves surged less than a hundred meters from our boat.
A massive figure burst forth from the lake's surface, appearing right before our eyes, sending water flying everywhere.
The cold droplets splashed onto our faces, soaking our cheeks and hair as the enormous waves continued to roll.
At that moment, our boat felt like a tiny raft tossed about in a storm. The swaying was so intense that it seemed any slight movement from that figure could instantly engulf us in its wake.
"It's the Divine Dragon! The Divine Dragon is out!" He Si exclaimed, his voice filled with shock and excitement as he pointed ahead.
In truth, there was no need for him to say more; everyone present had already seen the colossal figure rising above the lake.
Its Scale Armor glimmered softly under the moonlight, resembling polished metal. Its eyes shone like bronze bells, radiating brilliant colors. The entire body emerged from the water, towering over ten meters high, its head held high as it looked down at us, letting out a resounding Dragon Roar.
A wave of overwhelming pressure surged from the Divine Dragon before us, instilling a sense of fear within me.
I turned to look at Brother Luo and the others. Brother Luo's face had gone pale, his body trembling uncontrollably.
He Si was transfixed; although equally shocked, he couldn't hide his excitement because this was his first time seeing a dragon.
The same could be said for Mingyue, but Mu Yan's expression appeared the most distressed. Strangely enough, her trembling seemed even more severe than Brother Luo's.
What is going on?
It must be known that Mu Yan had already reached the level of a Ghost King, so how could she be in such a state?
"Quickly help her to the cabin. The Divine Dragon is a divine beast, and its aura is the nemesis of all Evil Spirits." Gu Chen did not turn around, yet he was already aware of Mu Yan's condition.
"Understood."
I nodded quickly, suddenly recalling the Manticore Scale that Zhou Zhen had brought back then. That Manticore Scale was taken from a Silver Dragon that had successfully slain a giant python, and it was already capable of countering ghosts. How much more effective would it be with the Divine Dragon right in front of us?
Without hesitation, I hurriedly supported Mu Yan and walked briskly toward the cabin.
Just then, I heard He Si's voice: "Senior Gu, it... it has run away!"
I turned around to look, and with a loud crash, the Divine Dragon had soared up from the lake. Its massive form was nearly thirty meters long as it shot into the sky and flew off into the distance.
"The Black Sea, it's the Black Sea!" He Si exclaimed anxiously, but I heard Gu Chen calmly say one sentence.
