Before long, Blue Rabbit felt that Green Bird's wings were flapping more powerfully, as if they had absorbed strength.
Originally, I thought the green bird would resist again, but unexpectedly, the green bird seemed to have no such intention. Did what was said just now take effect? Thinking so, the green bird suddenly dived down straight towards the ground. The sudden movement startled Blue Rabbit, fortunately Blue Rabbit did not let his guard down and reacted in time, holding tightly onto the rope in his hand.
At this moment, on the stone steps above, Dingdang, Lanshui and Jianshen were at a loss. Dingdang spoke up first: "I don't know how Lantu is doing either, why don't we go down to help Hongmao and them?" Lanshui frowned and said: "But what about Lan Yu?" Jianshen interrupted: "Just waiting like this isn't going to work, let's think of a way to get back to the ground first." Upon hearing this, Lanshui thought it would be better to ask Shixiong and them first.
In this way, the three of them reached a consensus and began to make their way down the stone steps one by one using lightness skill. However, since they were in mid-air after all, none of the three dared to be careless and slowly made their way down while supporting themselves against the stone wall. Lan Shui suddenly stopped in her tracks, however, and gently stroked the stone wall as she carefully examined it.
Ding Dang asked, "What's wrong, let's hurry up." Lan Shui said, "Come and take a look." The two of them came over to take a look, but no matter how long Ding Dang looked at it, he couldn't make anything out of it. He said, "Isn't this just an uneven stone wall? Except for some unusual patterns, there's nothing special about it."
Arrow Spirit said, "I remember that Blue Rabbit seemed to have triggered a mechanism on the stone wall, which is why the torch lit up." At that time, Arrow Spirit was right next to Blue Rabbit, so she saw her actions. Lan Shui listened and pointed at the stone wall, saying, "Look, the pattern on this wall - rather than being a floral design, it's more like... characters!" Characters? Dingdang tilted his head, these characters were strange and unclear, what did they represent? Arrow Spirit looked for a while and said, "It's probably because of the long time, the characters on the stone wall have been covered by dust. I think if we clean them up, it'll be fine."
Lan Shui nodded, then urged her inner strength to gather the water droplets in the air. With a wave of her hand, the droplets fell onto the stone wall with a pattering sound, gradually deepening in color before sliding down the wall. Ding Dang and Jian Ling followed suit, operating their internal energy. Before long, rows of clear characters appeared before everyone's eyes.
Three people read word by word, but when they reached the middle, they couldn't read any further. Lan Shui slightly furrowed her brow, while Jian Ling stared at the stone wall without making a sound. The characters above consisted of five lines, which were simply five pairs of couplets. This wasn't anything unusual, but three of the five pairs of couplets were ones that they had never seen before, and the other two were famous ancient couplets that they had read in books. Lan Shui lowered her head in thought, while Dang Dang, who didn't like reading, naturally didn't understand these writings very well. For a moment, they all fell silent.
At this time, the green bird had already flown to the ground. The rainbow cat saw this scene and felt a little relieved in her heart. Fortunately, she was fine... As for Lan Hui's return to the ground, the first scene he saw was that everyone was tossing the popular Jingyuan Pearl back and forth, as if it were an untouchable plague.
She took another look at the guardian beast rushing towards the person holding the Jingyuan Pearl, and suddenly understood. When she saw the woman in green beside Bai Zhen, she was slightly stunned for a moment, then let out a sigh of relief, fortunately Lan Yu was fine.
Then he said to the rainbow cat: "Rainbow cat, just now in the sky I saw some strange patterns on the stone wall, which didn't seem to be formed naturally. I'll go up and take a look again, maybe I can discover some mystery!" The rainbow cat nodded and said: "Blue rabbit, you be careful, our time is limited, we must subdue the guardian beast as soon as possible!" At this moment, the rainbow cat suddenly had an idea, lightly jumped into the air, caught the Jingyuan pearl that was being thrown back and forth, then threw it with force: "Blue rabbit!" Blue rabbit immediately understood, exerted some force on his hand, and the green bird flew in the expected direction.
He reached out to catch it, and at the same time, his line of sight met Rainbow Cat's for a few seconds. Then, he suddenly flipped over, one foot kicked out, and Rainbow Cat caught him by grasping Blue Rabbit's ankle, but didn't use too much force. Blue Rabbit took advantage of the momentum to pull Rainbow Cat onto Azure Bird's back.
The guardian beast saw the box in Blue Rabbit's hand and immediately jumped up to grab it. At this time, the Azure Bird suddenly made a series of cries, as if telling the guardian beast something. The guardian beast listened quietly, its breathing slowing down. Gradually, the Azure Bird stopped crying and slowly landed on the ground. Everyone was puzzled and gathered around. "What do they mean?" Arrow asked doubtfully, and Arrow shook his head.
The blue rabbit looked at the rainbow cat behind, and the rainbow cat said to the green bird: "It seems that it doesn't have any malice now." The blue rabbit nodded, gently untied the rope on the green bird's neck, and said with a hint of apology: "Green bird, I offended you just now.
The green bird chirped, seemingly forgiving the blue rabbit. The untied green bird looked even more cheerful, and the guardian beast also hummed a few times, without any intention of attacking them. What was going on? Facing everyone's confusion, Rainbow Cat and Blue Rabbit were also at a loss.
At this time, the little fox jumped out and said: "Hey, don't worry about that anymore, getting the Jingyuan Pearl is the most important thing!" After finishing, he proudly raised an eyebrow at the five members of Riyue and said: "How's that? Are you convinced now?" "You..." Lan Yu was so angry that she couldn't speak, pouting with a small mouth and sulking. "Hurry up and open it to see!" The little fox had already opened the box impatiently.
At the moment the box was opened, a burst of golden light flashed inside, and everyone's eyes were blinded. After the golden light faded, Xiaolong excitedly took out the round and crystal-clear Jingyuan Pearl from the box: "Great, Hongmao, we succeeded!" However, the joy didn't last long, as the Jingyuan Pearl suddenly began to shrink, gradually turning into a swarm of flying fireflies that dispersed and disappeared. "What's going on!" Xiaolong exclaimed.
Anxiously wanting to grasp, but unable to do so, can only let the Jingyuan Pearl disperse in his hand. "What's going on?!" Hongmao's face sank, Lantou stared at the dispersing Jingyuan Pearl, and everyone else watched this scene with unwillingness, disappointment, and anger in their eyes.
Could it be that all their hard work was in vain? Rainbow Cat and Blue Rabbit were the first to calm down, with Rainbow Cat saying somewhat solemnly: "It seems that the Pure Origin Pearl was just an illusion." An illusion! Everyone was stunned for a moment before they understood. It seemed that the Three Towers Competition wasn't as simple as they had thought. So what lay ahead of them next?
