At the bottom of the dark lake, a crater with a radius of ten feet suddenly appeared. In the dark red hole, blue flames are constantly spitting out. In this endless darkness, fire and cold water coexist so perfectly, which makes people marvel at the uncanny craftsmanship of the creation of heaven and earth.
But just above the crater, there is a black-red ball about a foot long, inlaid with squares, shaped like a folk child playing with Monaihe.
The ball floats up and down over the crater, with blue flames burning the lower part of the ball. When it turns red, it turns over and faces the black upper part towards the crater.
Wu Gen looked at this scene curiously, trying to figure out the purpose of the ball. This object was obviously made by man, and it had been placed here for an unknown number of years. Suddenly he remembered that Mu Bai once said that this place is an excellent place for forging weapons. Could it be that this is a heavy weapon forged by someone.
Looking at the floating ball, Wu Gen could not help but feel greedy in his heart and moved towards the edge of the crater. When I stood next to the crater, I didn't feel any heat. I guess the scorching heat of the volcano had been absorbed by the cold lake water.
Hey, a wisp of black ash appeared in the water. It was Wu Gen's clothes accidentally exposed above the crater.
Wu Gen finally understood that in the cold water, the volcanic heat was suppressed near the crater, but if he rashly broke into its territory, the end would be the same as the disappeared clothes.
Looking around at the bottom of the lake, there are no signs that anyone has been there. This also means that the ball has been here for many years. One side is blazing fire, the other side is cold water, and the ball has been flipped over countless times. Heating and quenching so quickly, and under such heavy pressure, what kind of heavy treasure is being refined.
Wu Gen believed that those who could sneak here and take advantage of this heavenly environment must not be ordinary people. Mu Bai hinted that why he was here, could it be...
Wu Gen became excited for a moment, it seemed that his luck had come. No matter who put it here, if you pick it up, it belongs to you. But how should it be removed? At the bottom of the water with such high pressure, Wu Gen would not dare to use magic to cross the crater rashly.
Try hitting the water with your palm, trying to push the ball away with the water flow. But when the water like an old cow reached the top of the crater, the ball just shook and returned to the center of the crater.
Wu Gen was really unwilling, so he pulled out his broken sword and slashed with all his strength. The sword energy that usually cut more than ten feet was not even left at this time. It stirred the blue flame and then disappeared.
At this moment, Wu Gen felt a little desperate. The human world could no longer hold on for long, and he had to return to the water quickly. Forget it, if you can't get it, you won't get it. Maybe the treasure is not destined for you. Wu Gen was not a stubborn person, so he turned around and was about to leave.
At this moment, Broken Blade suddenly started to tremble, swaying in the water, trying to swim to the top of the crater.
Wu Gen's heart moved. Ever since he got the knife from Guanqiang, he had never had such a strong desire. On weekdays, Broken Dao almost took on many chores such as chopping firewood, chopping vegetables, killing people, and Wu Gen was too ambitious. After using up the whetstone he got from Yisan, he didn't even bother to sharpen the knife.
Broken Knife sometimes resists, but generally speaking, like a hard-working old scalper, he silently endures what he should and should not do. Broken Blade suddenly became interested today, which surprised Wu Gen. After looking at the ball floating in the crater, I couldn't help but feel a little sad for my old friend.
Looking at how he was treated, and looking at the ugly-looking knife that still had a lot of rust in his hand, Wu Gen couldn't help but feel a little guilty. Forget it, let it rest.
Wiping the blade with his fingers, Wu Gen pushed the knife gently, and the knife slowly followed the water to the sky above the crater. Not only that, the broken knife floated directly to the position of the ball, bumped into it unceremoniously, occupied the magpie's nest, and enjoyed the bath of flames.
The ball shook for a few times, seeming a little annoyed, then floated back again, knocking the broken knife away.
One knife and one ball just come and go, like two angry children bumping into each other in the sky above the volcano.
Seeing that it was difficult for the two guys to tell the winner for a while, Wu Gen waved his fist at the broken knife to show encouragement, and he swam quickly towards the water. No more, the human world can no longer hold on.
When his head came out of the water, Wu Gen took a big breath of fresh air. If it's a little later, when the human world is exhausted, I might have to drown in the lake. That would really become a big joke.
On the shore, Yu Hao and Sha Zhimo built a bonfire to grill fish.
"It's out." Yuhao handed over a fish.
"The craftsmanship is good." Wu Gen showed approval on his face and looked up at the sky. There were some clouds in the sky, covering most of the stars.
"After staying underwater for nearly a day, you surprised me a little, but what I saw." Yuhao carefully wiped the fish oil from the corner of her mouth, and then wiped it on Sha Zhimo's body.
Wu Gen picked up another fish and talked vaguely about the ball. He believed that since Mu Bai let him go down, Yu Hao must know the reason.
"That's a pair of armor, and the name of the armor is Eclipse Sun." Yuhao didn't hide it, and directly told the origin of the ball, "It was left by the ancestor who was struck by death. I wanted to use it on the bottom of the lake. Youhuo forged a pair of shocking armor. I never thought that after so many years, he never came back, and the armor stayed there."
"No one wants to take it out?" Wu Gen didn't believe that no one could covet such a good thing.
"Because it can't be turned into the shape of armor, what's the use of it? Is it possible to use it to hit people? Moreover, few people know about the existence of this armor, and the master is watching. Who can take it?" Yu Hao answered. Very simple.
"Oh." When Wu Gen heard this, he felt a little frustrated. No wonder the Eclipse Armor has been able to sit safely at the bottom of the lake for many years. In other words, how could it be his turn to do such a good thing as picking up treasures?
"Wu Gen, what are your plans after this training is completed?" Yuhao drove Sha Zhimo away and played with the bonfire on the ground. The firelight flickered, making his eyes flicker.
Wu Gen looked at the dark lake and kept grinding a pebble with his feet. "I am going back. I will take my men to the Iron Hand Province to join Ji Yexuan. You also know that a human race wants to be in Kuntian It is difficult to make a difference in the continent without resorting to external help. But before I leave, I need your help with something."
"Oh, what's the matter?" Yuhao raised her head and looked at Wu Gen.
"I left some belongings on Zuoheng Road. I always feel a little uneasy when I leave suddenly. Can you think of a way to suppress the Heita family or the Hulan family to prevent them from resorting to cruel tactics." Wu Gen turned his head and said seriously, " Hengmen Port is an important base for the fight back to Tianyuan Continent in the future, and it must be controlled by us. Even if we cannot control everything, we must ensure free access."
Yu Hao used a blackened wooden stick to write and draw on the ground. After thinking for a long time, she said: "I can think of ways to suppress the Heita family, but the Hulan family really has no good way. A provincial lord, almost You are also a king-like existence in Beizhou. How can you convince them without the elders coming forward?
But you don't have to worry too much. As long as the interests of Hengmen Port are not damaged, the Hulan family doesn't care about your fearless troops. They can crush you to death with just a hair on their head. This time you just caught that good-for-nothing Hulan Fuyan and lost face, so you just pretended to show your attitude. Therefore, under the current situation, do not touch Hengmen Port, otherwise no one can save you. "
Wu Gen nodded. Yu Hao's thoughts were consistent with his own. The Hulan family was too big to ignore him. That's fine. After he leaves, using Chu Xi's methods, let alone making progress, it shouldn't be a problem to maintain the current situation.
"Can you think of a way to say hello to Ji Yexuan? In addition, I need a map from Bailing to Iron Hand Province. Since you are responsible for the intelligence, this should not be difficult."
Yuhao happily agreed: "There is no problem with this. But why don't you go to find Ji Yesuan alone? Why should you take your men with you? The journey is long and there are many variables."
Wu Gen lay down with his head on his arms and smiled softly, "I brought these people out single-handedly, how can I be willing to throw them away. Besides, when I arrived in the Iron Hand Province, I didn't have a team, so how could I expand the army by myself? At all times, you need to have a force in your hand to feel at ease.”
"I'm afraid the Ji family won't let you have too much power. Doing so is a taboo."
"It all depends on people. Now we must unite all forces that are willing to fight against the divine religion and try our best to shake the structure of Kuntian Continent."
Suddenly, Wu Gen sat up, pointed at the sky and said strangely: "Hey, don't you think the clouds are a little heavier?"
Yuhao raised her head and watched for a long time, feeling a little strange, "Yes, it's possible it's going to thunder and rain."
Upon hearing the word "thunder", Wu Gen's face turned gloomy.
Three days later, Wu Gen entered the lake again. When he arrived at the crater, Wu Gen couldn't help but feel happy. The broken knife was still hitting the eclipse armor relentlessly, and the knife and the ball kept spinning around the crater.
A few days later, when Wu Gen went back, Broken Sword was already chasing Eclipse Armor. After all, Broken Sword has been battle-hardened for a long time, and Sun Eclipse Armor has stayed in this dark place for many years. In terms of fighting, it is really no match for Broken Sword.
Everything was going well here, but Wu Gen ran into trouble. The dark clouds over the big lake are getting thicker and thicker, and they have not dispersed for many days. There are already faint orange lightnings swimming among them.
Looking at the oppressive dark clouds, Wu Gen didn't know that his thunder disaster was coming again, and he might have to survive it here.
On this day, Wu Gen was looking up at the sky by the lake. Mubai walked up behind Wu Gen with a complicated look on his face, "Wu Gen, it seems that it is a bit difficult for you to break through this time. I didn't expect this first thunderstorm." The calamity is so violent.”
Wu Gen squatted on the ground with his head in his hands, a look of misfortune on his face, "Senior Mu, this is the second time."
"Oh." Even Mu Bai was speechless at this moment. No wonder Wu Gen's human world would be opened in advance. It turned out to be this reason.
"The thunder tribulation is very powerful, Wu Gen, how about I take you to another place to escape the tribulation now." Mu Bai was a little worried about his formation.
"Senior Mu, can you wait a few more days? I have tried my best to suppress myself these days, so I should be able to hold on for a few more days."
"Why, but what else should I prepare?"
"I'm waiting for my knife."
Some people died, but not completely...
