Chapter 1686: The Disappearance of Wu Ji
The location of the third True Dragon Fruit was a little far from Duan Qing, about 20 miles away. When Duan Qing arrived, he found that someone had taken the True Dragon Fruit first, leaving only a bare Daolong Tree.
Duan Qing was speechless, and quickly asked the Daolong Tree in the spirit beast ring: "Brother Tree, where is the next True Dragon Fruit?"
The Daolong Tree quickly responded, "It's gone. I can't feel the existence of the True Dragon Fruit here anymore!"
It's gone!
Duan Qing sighed, but he was not too surprised.
The 100,000 Daolong Trees in the No. 7 True Dragon Garden can only produce 10 True Dragon Fruits in total. He took 2 out of 10 by himself with the help of the Daolong Trees, which was already a great harvest.
As all the True Dragon Fruits were picked, the golden mist in the valley gradually dissipated.
Duan Qing looked around, then raised his hand to look at the sky. After identifying the direction, he quietly moved towards the direction of the valley entrance while the mist had not completely dissipated.
The True Dragon Fruit is already in hand, so now what we should think about is how to get out safely.
At present, the entire True Dragon Garden is under the suppression of Ao Zhong's Dao Principle. Not only is the air forbidden, but even the small teleportation array cannot be used. If you want to get out, it will probably take some trouble.
When Duan Qing encountered unpicked Dao Dragon Fruit along the way, he did not hold back and picked them all. After all, although Dao Dragon Fruit is far inferior to True Dragon Fruit, it is better than nothing.
Before Duan Qing rushed to the valley entrance, the golden mist in the entire valley had dissipated, revealing the full view of the valley.
At this time, the people of the Soul Search Sect were all scattered in the depths of the valley. Many people were still tirelessly searching for the traces of the True Dragon Fruit, completely unaware that the True Dragon Fruit had all been picked.
And the eight or nine hundred dragons headed by Ao Zhong were guarding the valley entrance, looking coldly at the people of the Soul Search Sect in the depths of the valley.
Duan Qing hid about ten miles from the valley entrance, and observed the situation in the True Dragon Garden Valley with his left yang eyes. After a moment of hesitation, he quietly changed his body shape and became a member of the Soul Search Sect, preparing to blend into the crowd of the Soul Search Sect and escape in the chaos.
After the Soul Search Sect robbed the No. 7 True Dragon Garden, they would always run away, and they would not fight to the death with Ao Zhong and other dragons.
However, what surprised Duan Qing was that after the Soul Search Sect and others plundered the entire No. 7 True Dragon Garden, they did not intend to leave in a hurry, but still scattered around the valley, as if looking for something.
Duan Qing was very surprised and used his left yang eyes to search the valley carefully, wanting to see what these people were looking for.
After a search, Duan Qing found nothing.
What on earth is Wu Ji looking for!
Duan Qing was full of doubts, and his eyes looked in the direction of Wu Ji, peeping at Wu Ji with his left yang eyes.
From the perspective of Zuoyangmu, Duan Qing could see Wu Ji and two short old men standing somewhere in the valley, commanding the other members of the Soul Search Sect to search.
After staring at Wu Ji for a while, Duan Qing's pupils shrank suddenly and his brows furrowed.
This person... is not Wu Ji!
In other words, the Wu Ji in his eyes at this moment is not Wu Ji's real body, but a clone-like existence.
The means of this clone are obviously very clever. If he had not been with Wu Ji for a period of time and knew Wu Ji well, he would not be able to see the flaws!
This guy used a clone to take the blame, so where did the real body go?
Duan Qing was almost certain that when Wu Ji and others were outside the valley, he saw Wu Ji's real body when he used Zuoyangmu to observe.
Why did it become a clone now!
Thinking of this, Duan Qing used Zuoyangmu to observe carefully again.
After searching the entire No. 7 True Dragon Garden, Duan Qing was surprised to find that he could not find Wu Ji's real body.
What made Duan Qing feel very strange was that in addition to Wu Ji's real body, Ao Fang also disappeared in the True Dragon Garden, and no trace could be found.
Strange!
Wu Ji and Ao Fang disappeared at the same time, especially Wu Ji, who left a clone to cover up his tracks!
Was all this a coincidence, or was it intentional?
At this moment, Ao Zhong at the entrance of the valley was also very upset.
His eyes kept scanning the crowd of the Soul Search Sect. His face seemed expressionless, but he was actually quite nervous.
These guys didn't leave after looting the Daolong Fruit and the True Dragon Fruit. Could it be that they really knew the existence of that thing?
It shouldn't be! The existence of that thing is a secret even within the Dragon Clan. In the entire True Dragon Garden No. 7, only the five elders on duty knew about it.
Even if there is a traitor in the True Dragon Garden No. 7, can the news of that thing be leaked?
Or... the traitor is among the other four elders on duty!
When Ao Zhong thought that there might be a traitor among the rotating elders, he felt angry and uncomfortable.
He could accept that there might be a traitor among ordinary tribesmen, but the rotating elders were all high-ranking members of the Dragon Clan, who had undergone rigorous tests before being promoted. If there really was a traitor among such people, then for the Dragon Clan...!
Ao Zhong didn't dare to think any further. He suppressed his anger, glanced at the remaining four rotating elders behind him, and sent a voice message to test them.
"These human bastards won't leave. What do you think we should do now?"
As soon as Ao Zhong asked this question, he got a response immediately.
"Before these bastards find that thing, just fight them and drive these human bastards out first!"
"That's right. Let these people keep looking. I'm afraid that thing will be discovered sooner or later. This treasure is related to the foundation of our Dragon Clan and cannot be lost!"
"I think so too. We can't let these bastards continue to search!"
"Me too!"
The attitudes of the remaining four elders on duty were surprisingly consistent, all of them advocated fighting.
This made Ao Zhong feel troubled. He looked back at the people of the Soul Search Sect in the depths of the valley and fell into deep thought.
Just as Ao Zhong was struggling with how to deal with the current situation, Duan Qing was also persevering in using his left yang eye to search the entire No. 7 True Dragon Garden inch by inch.
Unfortunately, no matter how he looked, he couldn't see anything unusual.
His eyes swept over Wu Ji's clone again, and Duan Qing suddenly had a flash of inspiration.
Oh, there is that method!
Duan Qing's mouth corners slightly raised, and he immediately started to act. On the surface, he was looking for something like other people from the Soul Search Sect, but in fact, he kept approaching the direction of Wu Ji's clone.
After a while, Duan Qing successfully approached Wu Ji's clone within a hundred feet.
Use the Heavenly Secret Technique to foresee Wu Ji's future and see what this guy is doing.
Thinking of this, Duan Qing immediately used the Heavenly Secret Technique on Wu Ji.
Although the person in front of him was Wu Ji's clone, which would affect the effect of the Heavenly Secret Technique to some extent, it did not mean that the Heavenly Secret Technique was completely ineffective.
In an instant, a somewhat blurry picture instantly appeared in Duan Qing's mind.
It was a giant tree growing underground. Rather than a giant tree, it was better to say it was a giant dragon, because the appearance of this giant tree was like a giant dragon stretched to the ground. The length was probably no less than ten miles, and there were dragon patterns on the tree.
What surprised Duan Qing the most was that this giant tree grew upside down, with the dragon's tail facing upwards and the dragon's head facing downwards.
At this time, four figures were climbing down from the dragon's tail, and Wu Ji, who Duan Qing had been looking for for a long time, was also among them.
