After exceeding thirty feet, the pool gradually became narrower and more tortuous, no longer as straight up and down as before.
Loneliness and darkness enveloped Tian Huan, making Tian Huan feel isolated from the world. He continued to go deeper along the rugged and narrow waterway. Fortunately, there were no side roads, otherwise Tian Huan would have lost his way.
The spiritual energy contained in the depths of the waterway is even richer. Tian Huan estimates... Well, I can't estimate it. He has never even been to the county seat a few times. His limited knowledge is only from books or communication with Xu Shen. How can he know about spiritual energy? How rich is the aura of the rich place?
But at least it was more than twice that in the small valley. Tian Huan resisted the urge to stop practicing and continued to swim deeper. His nose continuously filtered oxygen from the water, so that Tian Huan did not suffer from any lack of oxygen.
Although monks in the middle stage of Qi refining and above, or warriors in the late stage of body refining, can refine spiritual energy in water to replace breathing, but this is just a matter of effort, not like Tian Huan's innate instinct.
It would be better if I could learn more about the magic in the water. When I was thinking about where to get some more magic secrets, suddenly the narrow water channel around me suddenly became empty, and in the deep and dark water, another light was attracted. Tian Huan.
'what is that? Tian Huan couldn't help but wonder, and then the dragon's tail shook, its limbs swayed slightly, and it swam towards the light.
'This is...' Tian Huan couldn't help but widen his eyes. In the boundless darkness, he saw a huge bubble covering the bottom of the water. In the bubble, there was a big white-scaled snake curled up into a ball, seemingly sleeping. middle.
But even in a deep sleep, this big snake is still full of oppressive power. Just looking at it closely, you can feel the tremor in your soul. This is the oppression from the realm.
The bright light that attracted Tian Huan was the sapphire stone platform under the white-scaled snake. The aura here was so abundant that Tian Huan felt intoxicated, and even unconsciously wanted to lie down on it and fall asleep. go.
Tian Huan silently swam around the white-scaled snake. Compared to Tian Huan, who was less than a foot long including head and tail, this extremely beautiful snake looked at it roughly and found that it was at least more than ten feet long.
Carefully coming to the head of the big snake, Tian Huan stretched out his hand and gently poked the bubble. Well, it didn't burst. It seemed that the bubble was quite strong. Tian Huan breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed that the big snake didn't seem to be broken. He won't wake up so easily.
If the big snake wakes up, Tian Huan has no doubt that he will be swallowed by the opponent. However, after recovering from the shock, Tian Huan also roughly confirmed that the big snake should not have survived the second catastrophe.
Maybe not as good as the Black Crow King in Crow Head Mountain. Tian Huan recalled the Black Crow King who broke through the tall building that day and fluttered his wings. Well, although the Black Crow King has been confirmed to be gone, he is indeed a man who is approaching the second day of heaven. The powerful demon king of calamity.
'A snake demon that may have three to four hundred years of demon power? But the aura here is so rich that it definitely doesn’t take three or four hundred years of practice. Tian Huan guessed in his heart, then glanced around and found that there were a lot of sapphires and spiritual minerals at the bottom of the water.
Yes, these spiritual ores are mined and cut into spiritual stones. However, after Tian Huan's identification, the quality of the spiritual ores here is not very high, and the sapphire should be a material for refining, but what kind of it it is? , Tian Huan said he didn’t quite recognize it.
After swimming around, Tian Huan confirmed that the place where the big snake lived was about two to three hundred feet in diameter, and then Tian Huan slowly floated upwards.
Phew~
Tian Huan poked his head out and looked up through the fluorescent sapphire inlaid on the roof of the cave. He looked around. This should be a place where underground water veins gather. In addition to the waterway where Tian Huan swam in, there were other water channels up and down around the cave. There are seven or eight water crossings of different sizes.
The waterway where Tian Huan came in was already relatively wide, but although the spiritual energy was rich here, there were surprisingly no other creatures. I don't know if it was because of the pressure of the big snake.
It should be so. Tian Huan slowly swam to a stone platform and found a dead skeleton that had sat down. There was a sheathed long sword and a scroll on the skeleton's legs. However, Tian Huan felt a little strange. .
But it’s hard to say what’s strange about it.
Tian Huan hesitated for a moment, stretched out his hand and gently picked up the sheathed sword and the book. With a clang, the sword was pulled out, aura overflowing. The sword body was as clear as autumn water, and the blade was cold to the bone. It should have been the handle. Excellent magic weapon.
However, the fine cracks all over the sword showed that the sword was on the verge of shattering. Tian Huan sighed and sheathed the sword with regret.
Tian Huan then unfolded the scroll again, and as soon as the scroll, which looked like it was made of silk, was unfolded, a lot of information turned into a white light and penetrated into Tian Huan's forehead.
"Well, this... Yuan Qing female crown... is a strange woman, what a pity." After Tian Huan opened his eyes, he slowly shook his head.
The scroll briefly introduced herself. This Yuan Qing female crown was a poor person. When she was young, her hometown was plundered by the rebel army, causing her family to be destroyed. Later, by chance, she joined a female cultivator sect under the Taoist sect.
I thought I could practice peacefully and seek Taoism, but I didn't expect that due to the dispute between good and evil, the sect would be implicated and destroyed by the demon sect. Although Yuan Qing Nu Guan, who had not yet established the foundation at the time, escaped with her life, she was still burdened with the burden of the evil sect. of hatred.
Later, after the foundation was successfully established, he first went through all the troubles to find the rebels who killed his family to avenge him, and then he kept looking for the enemies of the demonic path to avenge him. After several times of risking his life in fighting and even destroying the path, he was no longer in the golden elixir realm.
Although some demon disciples were killed in the end, they did not really avenge the sect. Instead, they were seriously injured and had to flee to this small valley in Fulong Mountain to recuperate.
Unfortunately, Yuan Qing Nu Guan's injuries were still too serious, and she ended up sitting here. Before she died, she left this book, which recorded the cultivation methods and swordsmanship secrets that Yuan Qing Nu Guan had learned.
"The seventy-sixth year of Taihe... The seventy-sixth year of Taihe was..." Tian Huan was an educated man who had studied seriously with his father-in-law for two years, and he counted on his fingers.
"Well, yes, it was one hundred and twenty-five years ago..." Tian Huan's brows twitched and he looked sideways at the sleeping big snake under the deep water.
Although the big snake has three to four hundred years of demon power, it is calculated based on the standard monster training time. If it is practiced in such a place with rich spiritual energy, it will definitely be much faster. In this way, this withered skeleton may still be the big snake. Put it here.
No wonder there were no other relics except the sword and the scroll. I'm afraid they had been taken away by the big snake. Tian Huan silently put the sword and the scroll back on his skeletal legs, and then slowly and quietly dived into the water.
Then he stopped disturbing the place where the big snake was sleeping, and just went back quietly, hoping that the big snake was careless and didn't notice his arrival.
Slowly entering the waterway where he came from, Tian Huan breathed a sigh of relief. Although he didn't take anything else with him this time, the inheritance of the Yuan Qing Women's Crown in his mind was a worthwhile trip.
However, the inheritance of the Yuan Qing Women's Crown...seems to be more suitable for women's cultivation. Tian Huan couldn't help but gritted his teeth a little. Forget it, why bother with so much for something that is free.
After Tian Huan left, in the silent deep water, the eyelids of the big snake in the bubbles moved slightly.
