He achieved the pinnacle of martial arts starting with breaking through the limits of Tiger Fist.

This creature is entirely white, with two symmetrical antlers on its head, resembling typical forked antlers with numerous branches.

Its head resembles a camel's, its eyes a rabbit's, its nose a lion's, its neck a snake's, its ears a cow's, and its beard a long one. Its forehead is broad and prominent, its mouth protrudes forward, and its closed lips convey a sense of power. Its overall appearance is solemn and sacred, as if it has gathered the spirits of all beasts.

"dragon……"

As Chinese people, we may not recognize other things, but how could we not recognize this creature in front of us?

Jiang Lin, who had slumped onto the deck, unconsciously kicked his feet and scooted backward.

The dragon-shaped creature in front of him first looked at Jiang Lin with curiosity, then at the "dragon lice" in the fishing net, and showed a look of disgust.

Jiang Lin tried his best to maintain his posture, afraid that a single careless movement would invite an attack from the other party.

A gentle breeze, carrying wisps of water vapor, swirled softly across the water's surface.

Jiang Lin met the dragon's gaze with a mixture of trepidation, anticipation, and awe.

Jiang Lin first carefully wiped away a bead of cold sweat, then examined the "Waterway Map" once more.

There's still no indication. Can this thing even evade the power of the system?

"This stalemate can't go on."

Jiang Lin was at a loss. The things in front of him were sitting firmly on the table, but he couldn't do anything about it; he was under too much pressure.

"So be it, I'll just die!"

Jiang Lin gritted his teeth and activated his mental power.

A message of goodwill traveled along the "waterway map" network toward the dragon-like creature before them.

The moment their minds connected, Jiang Lin understood the other's emotions. There was no hostility, only curiosity as the other observed him.

Upon receiving Jiang Lin's message, the dragon head first retracted slightly, then its eyes widened, filled with a strong sense of inquiry.

"We can communicate."

Jiang Lin was completely relieved and sent another message.

"Friends, harmony, joy."

"Moo~!"

What kind of sound is this? Vast, distant, ethereal yet stirring.

Jiang Lin was instantly moved, feeling a deep sense of urgency that brought tears to his eyes.

His past life's thoughts and memories profoundly influenced him. As a descendant of the dragon, the feeling of seeing mythical creatures appear before him was extremely complex.

Driven by his emotions, Jiang Lin even reached out his trembling hand and touched it.

It feels warm to the touch with a hint of coolness; the skin is thick and resilient, with fine scales that have a rugged texture.

The moment they made contact, a massive surge of intent reconnected with Jiang Linmeng.

Unlike Jiang Lin's previous spiritual tests, this time it was initiated by someone in a higher position, making the connection more solid, longer-lasting, and probing deep into the soul.

Of course, this was deep within Jiang Lin's soul, just like his sea of ​​consciousness was completely opened, revealing everything about Jiang Lin without reservation.

The dragon-like creature was first puzzled, then pondered, and finally revealed a shocked expression.

The clash of minds is more direct than physical combat; Jiang Lin's current situation is like being naked, with no secrets whatsoever.

The dragon-shaped creature lowered its head slightly and gently touched Jiang Lin's hand, which had not yet retracted, with its jade-like forehead.

"Is this an endorsement?"

Jiang Lin instantly understood; this was a very high affirmation, meaning equal treatment.

"friend……"

"Moo~"

This panel is really powerful; even the white dragon acknowledges its strength.

When his greatest secret was discovered, Jiang Lin was initially a little panicked, but in the end he could only accept it helplessly.

What else could we do? At least this secret brought us the opportunity for equal exchange, didn't it?

"You mean these things are annoying?"

Communication through consciousness is much easier than speaking; a single thought conveys a wealth of information, concise and clear.

Jiang Lin still has more than half of his "Frost White" left. At this time, he certainly can't be stingy. He should show some sincerity to his newly made friends.

According to the book, this "evil dragon louse" is formed from the scales shed by an evil dragon. It is tainted with a trace of dragon energy and is not powerful in itself, but it can parasitize dragons.

However, Jiang Lin also had doubts. The white dragon in front of him was solemn and majestic, and had nothing to do with the "evil dragon" or "wicked dragon". How could such a thing be born?

The moment the doubt arose, a flood of information rushed into Jiang Lin's mind.

This is a distant viewpoint, in which treasure ships speed by, arrows rain down, and a giant net blocking the river surrounds them on all sides. In the center of the scene, a black behemoth, half dragon and half serpent, pounces and kills in all directions.

Some walked on the waves, some flew through the air, the fierce power of the dragon spread, and when it raised its claws and slammed down, the bow of a treasure ship cracked open.

After wreaking havoc for a while, the dragon finally broke through and escaped, leaving behind only a scene of devastation.

Jiang Lin had never seen this scene before, but he recognized the ship.

There were a total of eight treasure ships, though there may have been more, as a large amount of timber was floating on the water, indicating that some had been lost in the battle.

Jiang Lin recognized two of the ships; they belonged to the Long family of the county town. The remaining ships each had their own markings. Although he didn't recognize them, he knew that any family that could cooperate with the Long family was no ordinary family.

Of the nearly ten prefectures and counties surrounding Yunmengze, the Long family only reigned supreme in Yuezhou.

"Moo~"

Jiang Lin instantly understood. The white dragon, as a spectator, did not participate but instead fled the scene. The "evil dragon louse" did not grow on its own but came looking for it.

This personality is somewhat similar to mine!

After several exchanges, it seems that some kind of recognition was obtained, and the figure of the white dragon can now be seen in the "Waterway Map".

The white dragon appears as crimson in the "Waterway Map" and is about seven or eight zhang long. This is the most powerful high-level creature Jiang Lin has ever seen since he acquired the "Waterway Map".

Before this, he had only seen the orange-red treasure fish and water beast.

Compared to the fifty-zhang-long dragon in the previous scene, the white dragon's body is somewhat short, as if it were in its juvenile stage.

It turned out that this white dragon was indeed in its infancy, with an excessive curiosity and a somewhat excessive purity.

To be honest, Jiang Lin was a little touched. This new friend was really something; he opened up to him so readily and without reservation as soon as they met.

Under the watchful eye of the white dragon, Jiang Lin cast bait into the water, attracting another wave of "evil dragon lice".

After two waves of this, Jiang Lin ran out of bait, but it seemed that the problem had not been completely eradicated.

Jiang Lin signaled that he would come back tomorrow. It was still not too late, and there was still time to go back and make bait.

In the "Waterway Map", the white dragon swims away, while Jiang Lin drives the boat back.

Jiang Lin was a bit overwhelmed looking at the nearly one hundred "Dragon Lice" on the boat. It wasn't that these things were worthless, but rather that they were extremely valuable.

Putting aside its medicinal value, its significance is extraordinary, because the presence of this thing indicates the existence of a dragon nearby, and this information alone is of great value.

Jiang Lin did not intend to reveal this information, not even to Senior Sister Long, as the Long family fleet was present in the previous mental communication.

"Hmm."

Jiang Lin was somewhat taken aback when the white dragon in the "Waterway Map" caught up with him.

"Clang!"

An object was thrown onto the deck, and under the "Waterway Map," it shone with a purple luster.

"Mysterious Water Turtle"

Is this a thank-you gift? Isn't this a bit too much?
