Deep in the dark, icy cold pool, the water suddenly surged, and the undercurrent rolled violently. His eyes were fixed on Luo Guan.
And he finally saw clearly what the big guy in Xuangui's mouth was -
A water snake!
The turbulence of the water makes it difficult to see clearly, but the figure is at least twenty or thirty feet long, and its entire body is covered with fine black scales.
On the slightly flat head, there are at least a dozen pairs of compound eyes, densely arranged on both sides, flashing with a cold luster.
This water snake aura is actually no weaker than that of the Ji family protector on Longmen Mountain. In terms of the level of human cultivation, it is already at the perfect level of golden elixir.
If you take one step further, you can trigger a heavenly catastrophe. After being tempered by thunder and fire, you can transform into a great Nascent Soul Demon.
There is such a vicious creature guarding the cold pool. No wonder Yu Ruowei warned Luo Guan not to enter it.
But there is actually a trace of the aura that belongs to the fragments of the Emperor's Sword. Luo Guan has noticed it and there is no way he won't come in and take a look.
Turning his hand, a tortoise shell appeared in his hand, and Luo Guan felt relieved.
He stared at the water snake, sighing secretly that he might not be able to find out what happened today, when the huge head of the ferocious water snake across from him suddenly tilted, and as he stared at Luo Guan's compound eyes, the coldness gradually dissipated and excitement and joy emerged.
The secret sarcasm in the cold pool dissipated, and the water snake gave a low cry, its tail swaying slightly. It looked surprisingly similar to the yellow dog that saw its owner coming home at the end of the village.
Luo Guan looked surprised, "Teacher, what is going on? Have you taken action?"
"...No." Black Turtle denied, paused and said, "Is this guy mistaken for the wrong person? He thinks you are his master?"
A great water snake demon with perfect golden elixir and one step away from the Nascent Soul. Do you think it is stupid? This thing sounds unreliable.
When Luo Guanzheng was hesitating, the water snake called out again, the sound was even weaker, and it sounded like a whimper with a hint of grievance. Those two rows of compound eyes stared pitifully at Luo Guan, and I felt like I was about to cry!
Gritting his teeth, Luo Guan waved to him.
The water snake swung its tail excitedly and rushed over. When it got close to Luo Guan, it quickly stopped and its huge head carefully approached him.
Luo Guan tensed up and relaxed. He was already ready to run away at any time.
After hesitating, he reached out and touched the water snake's head. The guy's eyes narrowed in comfort, and his big tail swept back and forth.
Suddenly, the water snake leaned down, carried Luo Guan on his back, turned around and swam straight into the deeper part of the cold pool.
It was extremely fast, and in just a few breaths, it dived at least three hundred feet. Counting the depth Luo Guan had dived into before, the cold pool was actually four to five hundred feet deep, and the water area became larger the deeper it went.
It’s finally over!
The water snake stopped moving downwards, and Luo Guan felt a hint of fear from it.
He thought for a moment, then turned over his hand and took out a lighting stone. The thick ink-like darkness under the water was immediately dispersed by the soft light.
Black Turtle's voice sounded, "That's right, the aura of the Emperor's Sword comes from here."
Luo Guan also felt it. He got off the water snake, held the lighting stone and continued to dive, and soon landed at the bottom of the cold pool.
The stones here have undergone some changes, and now they have turned into some kind of translucent jade like jelly.
As the powerful sword intent circulates, there are actually tiny shadows of thunder emerging from the stone wall, which is awe-inspiring!
Even the water snakes that had been living in the cold pool didn't dare to get close, but Luo Guan stood here and was not hurt at all.
Just because of the original power of the Imperial Sword, he now controls a part of it. Although it is very small, it is enough to prevent Luo Guan from being eroded by the sword's will.
Behind him, the water snake looked at this scene with awe in his eyes, which soon turned into joy.
It floated quietly in the water without moving, so as not to disturb Luo Guan.
"So that's it!" Xuangui sighed softly, "Boy, did you guess it?"
Luo Guan nodded. He subconsciously glanced upward. From a distance of four to five hundred feet, he could no longer see the entrance to the cold pool.
After organizing his words, he said softly: "It should be that a long, long time ago, a fragment of the Emperor's Sword fell from the sky and smashed into this mountain peak, creating this cold pool on the top of the mountain. And the reason why these stones in front of you have changed , caused by being exposed to the aura of the Emperor’s Sword for many years.”
"That's right." Xuan Gui added a few words, "The people from the Qingxiao Sword Sect discovered this fragment of the Emperor's Sword and moved it back to the mountain gate through some method."
"Have you noticed the light and shadow of thunder inside the stone wall? It seems that this fragment of the Emperor's Sword controls the power of thunder."
Luo Guan frowned, "The power of thunder?"
Xuangui said "Yes", "All cultivation in the world, when it reaches an extremely high level, will return to the origin and then take charge of power."
"Take the sword cultivator as an example. When you are strong enough, a sword can be like a gust of wind and rain, or it can turn into thousands of thunders, or it can burn the world in a sea of fire, freeze it for thousands of miles, etc... You can do whatever you want with just a thought."
"If you can reach this level, you will naturally understand these things without having to teach them too much... No wonder after the fall of the Qingxiao Ancestral Court, Ruowei was the only one left in the past five hundred years to master the Qingxiao Thunder Control Technique. , it is a sword art created entirely by relying on the fragments of the Emperor's Sword, and it can only be practiced with the help of the fragments of the Emperor's Sword."
After a pause, he continued: "This girl is willing to bring you here. It seems that she has high hopes for you, and she has a good taste."
"Boy, if you want to practice the Qingxiao Thunder Control Technique, this is the best place."
Luo Guan nodded to express his understanding. The advanced realm of swordsmanship mentioned by the teacher was too far away from him.
Now, just live in the present moment.
He took a deep breath and looked up at the water snake. This guy obviously borrowed the aura of the Emperor's Sword to cultivate to the perfection of the golden elixir in such a cold pond, and was one step away from being able to induce the Heavenly Tribulation and turn into the Nascent Soul Demon.
Before, it was not a mistake at all, but a sense of the aura from Luo Guan that belonged to the origin of the Imperial Sword.
It is not wrong to regard Luo Guan as his master.
"This little guy is quite clever. He has a low bloodline and limited talent. He can only cultivate to the perfection of the golden elixir. Without external help, it will be difficult to reach the Nascent Soul level."
Luo Guan nodded, already understanding what the teacher meant, and said to the water snake: "I will stay in seclusion here for a few days, and you stay outside."
The water snake roared low, swung its tail and turned away.
Luo Guan sat on his knees under the water, took out the jade slip given to him by Yu Ruowei, and penetrated it with his spiritual mind.
Soon, the contents of Qingxiao's Thunder Control Technique were completely memorized in my mind.
Luo Guan closed his eyes to meditate. After a moment, he opened his eyes and murmured: "There is indeed something in this Qingxiao Lightning Control True Technique..."
The imperial envoy Zhou Tian Lei has cultivated to an extremely high level, and can summon thunder from the sky with one sword, wiping out all living beings in the ten directions!
After careful consideration and confirming that there was nothing wrong with the enlightenment, Luo Guan officially began to practice.
I don't know how long it took, but at the bottom of the cold pool, in the pitch-black water, accompanied by a subtle roar, thunder gradually appeared.
