Although it has surfaced, it still cannot see the sun.

There were stone walls all around, forming a space of dozens of meters in radius above the head. On the rock walls, there were scattered dots of fluorite, emitting a faint light, and a rich aura of thunder emanated from the fluorite.

The light that was just under the water came from these stones.

"Huh~ Where is this place?" With oxygen re-injected into his body, Suzumiya Musashi finally had the strength to speak.

"What do you care where this is!" Yu Mu Ren turned around and glared at him with her beautiful eyes: "Didn't I just remind you to stop right away?"

Suzumiya Musashi said: "But you are chasing me!"

Yukito said angrily, "Why would I chase you if you didn't run!?"

Suzumiya Musashi: "If you don't chase me, I..."

Suzumiya Musashi stopped, not intending to play with the other party, and asked: "So... what is this place? Why did you stop me from killing that fish just now?"

You Mu Ren snorted coldly: "Kill it? If you kill it, you don't have to think about getting out."

"Why?" Suzumiya Musashi asked in confusion, "Is that thing very powerful?"

"Tell me about it?"

Yu Muren rolled his eyes at him in annoyance, but finally said, "That's the Emperor Snake."

"Emperor Snake?"

"I haven't heard of it. Is it that great?"

Yu Muren said: "It's normal that you haven't heard of it."

"Even in the major countries and ninja villages, I'm afraid few people know about this thing. Even in the Land of Lightning, there are only a few people who know about this thing."

Suzumiya Musashi asked, "The fact that you know few people means that your reproductive ability is not good."

"You haven't told me yet? Is this thing powerful?"

Yu Muren said: "It's powerful, but more importantly, this thing can cause a lot of trouble."

"The Emperor's body is strong and his speed is extremely fast. Even a jonin would have difficulty dealing with him."

"In addition to physical attacks, they are also good at manipulating lightning."

Suzumiya Musashi understood and said, "I was wondering why my face... my body felt so numb just now."

The wooden man said, "Just be thankful. The Emperor Viper was just testing you. If it really controlled the lightning to attack, it would be much more difficult than before. Their lightning contains strong toxins. Once you are hit, the consequences will not be good."

"More importantly, this thing may travel alone. If it really starts a battle, it will summon companions. Once it is surrounded by a group of Emperor Vipers, it can only hope for the best."

Suzumiya Musashi nodded slightly, and then he asked doubtfully: "You are so hostile to me, it would be just what you want if I were to be killed. Why did you follow me in?"

You Muren: “I…”

Facing Suzumiya Musashi's puzzled face, she turned her head and said, "I'm afraid you'll die here and pollute this sea."

Suzumiya Musashi: “…”

After all, the other party had just helped him, so he didn't dwell on the matter and talked about the key issue.

"So, where is this place? How do we get out?"

The wooden man thought for a moment and said, "I can't tell you where this place is. It's a troublesome place anyway, so you shouldn't come in."

"As for how to get out, just follow me. As long as you are careful, it shouldn't be a problem to get out."

Suzumiya Musashi still had a lot of questions in his mind, but in the end he could only keep them to himself.

After all, the other party is a ninja from Kumogakure, and some questions are destined to remain unanswered.

The two men rested on the ground for a while, waiting for their strength to recover. Then, the wooden man led the way in front, and Suzumiya Musashi followed behind, and they began to walk along the rock wall of the cave.

When encountering a fork in the road or an entrance, the wooden man would often pause for a few seconds before choosing a direction.

At first, Suzumiya Musashi thought that the other party knew the route, but as he walked, he found something wrong.

When the wooden man encountered a fork in the road, the look that flashed in his eyes didn't seem like memories, but rather like following fate.

When they were at a fork in the road again, he heard the other party's faint murmur.

"Wherever the little cat points, I'll go..."

Suzumiya Musashi: “…”

He tried hard to hold back his complaints.

He didn't know which direction to go, so what was the point of just following the other party and hoping for luck? The outcome would be the same.

He didn't think any more and continued to follow the wooden man, wanting to see if his luck could support the two of them to leave this hellhole.

Along the way, you can often see the water surface below the cave.

Occasionally, the two of them would wade through the water, and under the dark water surface, they could even vaguely see the shadow of the Emperor Snake swimming.

As we walked, we saw more and more such scenes. The light under the water surface became dimmer and the water surface was filled with a dark color.

This black is not the black of dim light, but it seems that the water itself is a little black.

Keep walking, and half an hour later, a larger cave space suddenly appears in front of us.

The two walked along the path at the edge of the cave, and turned around to look. In the center of the cave, there was a piece of water with a radius of one hundred meters.

The water is pitch black.

From time to time, long and short dragons swam and rolled in the water, breaking the water surface with the swaying of their long tails, splashing up the inky turbid water.

Every time the Emperor Serpent's tail swung out of the water, black and white electric lights crackled and flashed.

"What are they doing?" Suzumiya Musashi asked in a low voice.

The wooden man turned his head to take a look, then turned back and continued walking forward.

“It’s detoxification.”

Suzumiya Musashi was puzzled: "Detoxification? Detoxification of what?"

Yu Muren: "Thunder poison."

"The Emperor Snake can control lightning. But there is lightning poison accumulated in his body."

"Every spring and summer is the time for the emperor snake to reproduce and mate." As he spoke, the wooden man paused slightly, and a faint blush appeared on his cheeks.

Fortunately, the light in the cave was dim and she was in front of Suzumiya Musashi, so she didn't have to worry about being discovered.

She continued, "The lightning poison in the body of the Emperor Snake will cause mating... reproduction failure, so at this time, they will come here to eliminate the lightning poison energy in their bodies and concentrate on reproduction."

Suzumiya Musashi turned his head to look at the Emperor Snake that kept raising its tail on the water surface, and said with understanding: "I thought so, it looks like a flying toy, it really is true."

"Keep your voice down." Yukito said, "The wisdom of the Emperor Snake is the same as that of the Ninja Beasts. If we provoke them, we will be in trouble."

"Ah? If we were walking here, they should have noticed us a long time ago. Why didn't they attack us?"

The wooden man said, "Don't worry about it, they should be used to it."

Suzumiya Musashi wanted to ask something, but Yukito didn't want to say more, so he had to follow Yukito quietly.

But as he walked, he found more and more such scenes.

At the same time, for some reason, a sense of inexplicable familiarity arose in my heart.

Gradually, Suzumiya Musashi seemed to discover that there seemed to be some strange noises in the cave.

If there is, if there is not.

He concentrated and released his perception, and after a while.

"Ah!~~~" A faint roar suddenly echoed in the cave.

Suzumiya Musashi subconsciously became alert.

He thought that Yu Muren would be as vigilant as he was, but he didn't expect that he would just stiffen slightly and then continue to move forward.

"Didn't you hear it?" Suzumiya Musashi asked.

The wooden man said, "Don't ask too many questions."

"Just follow me!"
