Chapter 126 Goodbye Black Sea
Chapter 126 Goodbye Black Sea
Inside Tianchi Lake.
The instant he submerged in the water, Guan Xun immediately mobilized his spiritual power to create a barrier, completely separating himself from the pool water.
She frowned and looked around. The water was pitch black, with not a single ray of light in sight. Even the intense sunlight shining down from above couldn't penetrate it.
The calm, still water surface was like a barrier that allowed no light to penetrate.
Guan Xun rubbed his fingertips together a few times, and flames shot up from them, illuminating several meters around her.
Ripples of pure energy, glowing red, were rising from the bottomless water and heading towards the surface. Whenever these dense ripples touched her as they rose, she felt a strange heat surge throughout her body.
The scorching energy and abundant spiritual energy that were roaming around her rushed towards her in that instant, penetrating the spiritual energy barrier and forcibly seeping into every pore of her body.
Strands of energy flowed through his blood to every corner of his body, and Guan Xun immediately felt warm all over. He couldn't help but shiver, and beads of sweat appeared on his back, forehead, and even cheeks.
No wonder it is said that Tianchi has the effect of cleansing the marrow and rejuvenating the bones. She has only been in there for a short time, but her body has already undergone subtle changes.
Such miracles seem to all stem from that energy.
As he pondered, Guan Xun lowered his eyes slightly and looked down at his feet.
The endless darkness exuded an eeriness, a deathly silence, seemingly without end, bottomless.
Is that mythical beast truly sealed away down there...?
Chi Rong twisted its body and swam around inside the barrier. The moment it entered the pool, it felt uncomfortable all over, and now it was inexplicably a little impatient.
"Master, although I didn't sense the aura of a divine beast, the surging energy is rather strange." As it spoke, its body slowly descended.
Seeing that it was about to get restless and seemed determined to investigate, Guan Xun nodded slightly and went along with its wishes: "Let's go take a look."
With permission granted, Chi Rong suddenly leaped down, his speed suggesting he had been holding back for a long time.
In fact, even if Chi Rong hadn't mentioned it, Guan Xun would have sent it to scout ahead. She would never rashly venture into places she wasn't sure about.
Not long after Chi Rong left, the little fish, which had been quiet all along, gently swayed its tail and swam forward a little. It looked down with its eyes down and thought, "Danger."
These two simple words startled Guan Xun. The little fish was usually so calm; how could it utter such a thing...?
Her eyes darkened, a serious expression appeared between her brows, and she stared intently down below, as if she sensed something was wrong and would immediately call Chi Rong back.
Just then, a splashing sound came from the water, and Chi Rong was rapidly darting upwards.
"Owner!"
Its body hadn't even gotten close when its voice came, sounding particularly surprised: "I've discovered a barrier below!"
"What barrier?" Guan Xun asked in surprise.
“I don’t know.” Chi Rong shook his head, his tone somewhat excited. “It doesn’t look like it’s formed by spiritual energy, nor does it look like a barrier. The energy around us is surging out from the barrier.”
“It’s pitch black all around, yet it’s glowing, which is very eerie,” Chi Rong said, then added, “I have a feeling… that it’s dangerous, Master. For some reason, I feel uneasy.”
After listening, Guan Xun pondered for a moment.
Not only Chi Rong, but she herself felt uneasy. After all, even Xiao Yu had spoken up to warn her, so how could that place be a safe place...?
However, her purpose in coming here was clear: to find the divine beast, and secondly, to cleanse her marrow and cultivate.
Since we're here, there's no reason for us to leave empty-handed.
It's dangerous, but so what?
Try things out first, it doesn't matter if it takes a little time, and if it doesn't work, just keep trying.
Thinking it over, Guan Xun raised his phoenix eyes lightly: "Scared?"
"Afraid? I'm not! Master, don't look down on me!" Chi Rong immediately jumped up, swishing his tail defiantly, and glanced at the little fish. "You should say that to it."
"Hmph." Guan Xun's lips curled slightly, and without saying anything more, he waved his hand and said, "Alright, let's go."
As they continued to descend deeper, Guan Xun enveloped the flames with spiritual power, illuminating the entire path so that he could escape quickly and unimpeded should he encounter danger.
soon--
A dark barrier came into view, lying across the pool, its edges deeply embedded in the Heavenly Pool wall, its surface smooth and without a trace.
Like fireflies, specks of white light scattered throughout the barrier, flickering slowly between light and dark.
Although the brightness was very faint, each flicker illuminated the emerald green pool water, making it appear as clear and translucent as the finest jade, an exceptionally beautiful sight.
Guan Xun had always loved beautiful things, but at this moment he had no mind to appreciate them.
She stared intently at the barrier, and for some reason, a chill ran down her spine, her unease growing stronger.
“Master,” Chi Rong called out at just the right moment.
Guan Xun regained his senses and suppressed his emotions.
The mythical beast is very likely below...
Without hesitation, she mobilized her spiritual energy, condensed the longsword in her palm, wrapped it with spiritual energy, and swiftly swung it down at the barrier.
Bang bang!
The flash of spiritual light lasted only a moment from its initial appearance to its disappearance.
The attack was not weak, but Guan Xun was surprised to find that there was no crack or breakage where the sword had just struck, only two faint marks, and the points of light were still flashing in an orderly manner.
How could the barrier be so sturdy?
Guan Xun did not immediately make another move. His gaze swept back and forth across the barrier, and after a moment's consideration, he raised his long sword again.
Four-colored elemental spiritual energy surged from her palm, transforming into wisps of mist. They intertwined and merged into a glass-like color, attaching to the sword. Such powerful spiritual energy caused the longsword to vibrate violently several times, emitting a buzzing sound.
"Boom...!"
As the sword shadow crashed down, the entire Heavenly Pool trembled violently, and the water swayed continuously before stopping after several breaths.
Where the sword shadows struck the barrier, cracks appeared with a series of snapping sounds, before the barrier exploded with a deafening roar!
The points of light within them rapidly rotated around each other in an instant. Just as they merged into a vortex of light, their speed suddenly slowed down, and the points of light dispersed, leaving behind only a gaping maw that resembled an abyss.
The gaping hole was hollow, yet the emerald green lake water showed no sign of sinking, which was particularly eerie.
At the same time, the powerful energy tide, now unobstructed, surged upwards from the giant mouth, causing the pool water to churn and churn.
The aura of the divine beast also rushed towards us without any restraint.
Guan Xun was overjoyed; the divine beast was indeed here!
Before the look of surprise could even reach her eyes, she suddenly froze, her pupils contracting sharply!
A chilling aura emanated from the giant maw, instantly spreading a deathly stillness that calmed even the churning waters.
The divine beast's immense energy was suppressed to the point of not even making a ripple.
hiss……!
Guan Xun gasped, her gaze fixed on the gigantic maw. She felt her soul trembling uncontrollably. Her heart skipped a beat, and a look of horror flashed in her eyes.
No one was more familiar with this all-consuming aura than she was.
It is the Black Sea, a perilous place that devoured her body, eroded her soul, and tormented her!
