"Rest for now; I'm going to look around."
Wu Xiaode said.
Zhao Congnan and Ma San heeded his words and seized the time to rest.
Wu Xiaode stood up, turned around the mountainside, and stood under a large tree, shrouding himself and his surroundings with Demon Mist before he opened the Book of the Dead.
The Book of the Dead flipped automatically to the page of the skeleton dragon.
A mongrel lay on the ground, curiously reaching out with its paw to touch the orb of light.
Wu Xiaode initially wanted to remind it, "You can now transform into the skeleton dragon," but upon second thought, he realized that perhaps it was more accustomed to appearing in the form of a dog. Wouldn't it be meddling to say anything?
So he changed the subject and asked:
"What is this orb?"
The mongrel pushed the orb toward Wu Xiaode excitedly and said, "I only know it's very precious, but it seems that it can only be opened by someone of the human identity."
