Because what the "gatekeeper" wants is not "Earth Boat", but "Obsidian". Earth Boat is just a tool to obtain "Obsidian".
Yang Ji didn't know whether this "deal" was worth it or not.
"Sooner or later, you have to ask the gatekeeper. But, not now."
Yang Ji tilted his head. He looked across the space and towards the top of the mountain. It was pitch black and he couldn't see anything. But Yang Ji knew that the "gatekeeper" was there, and was probably even looking at him.
His spiritual perception is far stronger than his own.
But the "gatekeeper" can send people to see him, but Yang Ji has no way to take the initiative to see him.
If you want to go to the "Sutra Collection Cave", you must pass by the "square" where the elders live. In other words, you must pass under the "eyes" of the elders.
This would be almost impossible if not summoned by the elders, because ordinary disciples are not allowed to enter the Elder Peak at all.
"We can only wait for the opportunity."
Yang Ji thought to himself.
This incident is quite a big deal, and as the initiator and participant of this incident, I cannot get around it no matter what.
Moreover, Beishan Sect, Iron Sword Sect, Jiugong Sect, Tongyi Sect... so many disciples from other sects are watching. Whether it is reward or punishment, the sect must give an explanation.
Yang Ji believed that it was impossible for the elders not to summon him.
Thinking like this, Yang Ji quickly came to his senses. He stretched out his hand and closed the window with a bang.
"Sizzle!"
The moment he was about to turn around, there was a hissing scream of excitement in the darkness. Yang Ji was startled, and then he reacted:
"Xiao Ji?"
In the "Battle of the Evil Way", Yang Ji was chased by the evil prince. He was unable to protect himself and did not dare to let "Xiao Ji" follow him. So he let Xiao Ji leave halfway.
Counting the time, one day and one night, it should come back.
"Qiang!"
There was a sound of bricks, and not far from Yang Ji, a floor tile in a room protruded, then pushed to the side, rolling and making a clanging sound.
Under the floor tiles, "Xiao Ji" indeed poked his head out, straightened up, and looked at Yang Ji very excitedly.
"Just come back. Come here!"
Yang Ji smiled and stretched out his arms. "Xiao Ji" was getting stronger and stronger now. He was walking underground, and he could easily push open such floor tiles.
"Sizzle!"
Unexpectedly, Xiao Ji did not fly over this time and wrap himself around Yang Ji's wrist. Instead, he kept swinging at Yang Ji, as if he was saying something.
"Um?"
Yang Ji was surprised for a while. This situation had never happened before. When Xiao Ji saw him in the past, he liked to wrap it around his wrist. Now this kind of resistance rarely occurs.
"Xiao Ji, what's wrong? What happened?"
Yang Ji walked over and asked.
The room was a little dark, and Yang Ji couldn't see very clearly.
"His!"
Xiao Ji lowered his head and pointed underneath him, as if he was saying something.
Yang Ji took a closer look. Although Xiao Ji's body was exposed, his tail was still buried underneath, as if it was stuck.
But with Xiaoji's small size and the strength of the Crowned Snake, this is definitely not the case.
Yang Ji was shocked and confused, and suddenly his heart moved, as if he suddenly thought of something.
"Xiao Ji, do you want to say you brought me something?"
Yang Ji asked tentatively.
"His!"
This time it seemed that Yang Ji had guessed correctly. Xiao Ji spat out the letter with a proud look on his face.
"Snapped!"
There was a crisp sound, and several floor tiles around Xiaoji suddenly turned over, and then a little red light lit up in the darkness, as if there was a cluster of flames in the room.
Before Yang Ji could understand, Xiao Ji had already pulled out its tail. Different from what Yang Ji imagined, there was something on its tail, which was burning like a ball of flame.
Seeing clearly what was on Xiao Ji's tail, Yang Ji suddenly took a deep breath. The thing wrapped around Xiao Ji's tail was not a flame, but a burning flame monster statue.
"The Balrog!"
Yang Ji was shocked.
The thing "Xiao Ji" brought out from the underground burned like a flame, and was red all over, like a soldering iron. But the most shocking thing was that the thing looked exactly like the "Fire Demon" that "Yuan Jian" incarnated deep underground.
"Exactly the same.
The only difference is that the Balrog incarnated by "Yuan Jian" is extremely tall, and the thing curled up on Xiao Ji's tail is only seven inches tall. (To be continued...)
