Chapter 363: Lakeside Pavilion
It took a whole day for Lu Qingyu to barely recover three or four percent of his strength, along the way he consumed too much and injured too much, even if he had dragon blood, I am afraid that he would have to cultivate for seven or eight days before he could fully recover.
But now that seven days have passed, if it is delayed here for a while, then the treasure in front of me will probably be swept away by Qing Ruo and the Ji Steward.
If that's the case, then the meaning of Lu Qingyu's adventure to this place of trial will be most gone.
Although he had already obtained half a piece of gold essence on the first floor, his strength had been raised by a notch, but this benefit was just a drop in the ocean in this place of trial.
If you want to make another gain, you must speed up as much as possible to catch up with them as soon as possible, so that you can be qualified to see the real treasure!
Lu Qingyu, whose heart was like a mirror, did not stay in place and delay for even a second, although this big forest was full of dangers, but through the past few days of pondering, he had basically figured out the attack pattern of these grass spirit tree monsters, as long as he was careful, there would be no problems in the future.
So Lu Qingyu dragged his injured body and continued to embark on the journey, constantly looking for those special bushes along the way, and then kept moving forward according to the tips they gave.
After about three or five days, Lu Qingyu finally saw the edge of the forest vaguely through the falcon in the sky!
The trees thinned, and even the grass covering the ground began to become mottled, and was no longer as full as it had always been.
After walking for another half a day, Lu Qingyu's eyes suddenly lit up, and a boundless lake appeared in front of him!
Walked out!
Lu Qingyu let out a long sigh, this place of trial is really a place of torment, not to mention those strange creatures, just these layers and two layers of continuous monotonous environment have already made people suffer.
But no matter what, he still walked out, defeated four strong enemies, and walked out of the vast forest on the second floor with a harvest!
Lu Qingyu walked with steps, perhaps briskly, or heavily, towards the unknown lake.
Coming closer, Lu Qingyu saw at a glance that there was a small eye-catching pavilion on the shore of the lake, which was supported by seven pavilion pillars of different colors, each pillar held a small beast's head high, and in addition, there was a wordless plaque on the pavilion.
Although there are no words, there are short curves on this plaque, which look like water lines, and if you look at it for a long time, you will feel deeply moistened.
Shaking his head, Lu Qingyu stepped into the pavilion, glanced left and right, and a large stone basin placed flat in the pavilion instantly attracted all his attention.
Slowly walking a few steps forward, Lu Qingyu came to the side of this stone basin and found that this basin was full of water.
The water is crystal clear and free of impurities, and in the basin there are seven small stones arranged in a staggered manner, which looks irregular.
What does that mean?
Lu Qingyu scratched his head in confusion, and casually dialed the water in the basin with his hand, but did not find anything unusual.
Then I raised my head and looked at the big lake outside the pavilion, it was endless, there was no end at all, and there was no tool to ferry.
Lu Qingyu frowned, leaned on the railing of the small pavilion and rubbed it twice, and suddenly a warm touch instantly entered his heart from the palm of his hand, as if the whole person had been washed from head to toe by a pool of clear water.
Walking around the pavilion, Lu Qingyu didn't find anything wrong.
In addition to the material of this small pavilion is a little strange, there is no trace of flaw at all, the whole pavilion is integrated, and there is no trace of artificial carving.
Such a strange pavilion is located outside the forest on the second floor, what kind of purpose does it have, and what kind of mechanism secrets are hidden in it, all of this is completely like an unknown dumb riddle, which makes people puzzled.
After walking around, when Lu Qingyu came to the stone basin again, time had passed unconsciously.
At this time, between heaven and earth, there seemed to be an invisible pointer trembling, and when the time reached the node of this minute, a glimmer of light suddenly fell from the eaves of the pavilion.
Gray and scattered points of light swayed and fell like tiny snowflakes, covering the pavilion with a hazy shroud in a short time.
At the same time, the pavilion began to slowly sink into the lake after a faint tremor.
Lu Qingyu looked at the horizontal line that was gradually rising in front of him, and suddenly raised his eyebrows, it seems that there are some unknown changes hidden in this small pavilion, is it restricting the time for entrants to break through!
Lu Qingyu tried to walk towards the outside of the pavilion, and sure enough, the thin layer of light film blocked Lu Qingyu's way.
Trying to blast out a Void Spirit Blade, the light film shook slightly, and then absorbed the energy of the Void Spirit Blade and spread it out in all directions, without breaking.
And under the influence of Lu Qingyu's attack, the speed of this small pavilion sinking was obviously a few points faster!
It seems that this is a cycle of interaction, if you want to leave this pavilion, you must break through this layer of light film, and once you attack the light film, the speed of the pavilion's sinking will be accelerated, once this pavilion completely sinks into the lake, there must be no pleasant surprises to happen.
In other words, it is necessary to find a way to actually get out of here before the kiosk is completely sunk.
In fact, Lu Qingyu didn't think of rushing out of here with an all-out blow or even summoning hellfire, but since such a clever mechanism is set up in this small pavilion, it means that this must be a very critical place, and even the gate to enter the next layer!
In this case, it would be very unwise to use brute force to crack the protection of this light film!
But what does it take to solve this mystery?
Pacing in the small pavilion, Lu Qingyu quickly turned back to the stone basin in the middle of the pavilion.
Looking at the clear water in the stone basin that rippled slightly as the pavilion sank, Lu Qingyu's eyes lit up, the first layer in this trial land is gold, and the second layer is wood, if it is really calculated according to the order of the five elements, then the next layer should have something to do with water.
In this case, the water in this stone basin is probably tired!
Thinking of this, Lu Qingyu put his hand into the stone basin and slowly stirred it a few times.
The water waves tend to disperse to a certain extent, and there is no sense of proportion, and there seems to be no problem.
The stone basin does not move at all, it is connected to the bottom of the small pavilion, and there are no loopholes, so the only thing left is the few stones in this basin!
Raising his middle index finger, Lu Qingyu tried to pick up a stone to take a closer look, but at this time, something surprising happened to Lu Qingyu, obviously in his eyes, his hand had already twisted a stone, but the touch on his hand told him that there was no stone pinched by him at all!
Letting go of his fingers, Lu Qingyu spread out his palm and groped carefully at the bottom of the stone basin, but strangely didn't touch anything, the seven stones seemed to be just projections outside the sky, and they didn't exist at all!
How so!
Lu Qingyu withdrew his right hand and scratched his head and chin with some puzzlement.
Could it be that these stones are all illusions, but if they are all illusions, then the only clue to leave the pavilion is not to be broken again, how can this be good!
……
That's right!
The best thing to use in this place of trial is these means of blinding vision, and the best way to crack these methods is to condense the pupils!
Lu Qingyu suddenly remembered the scene when he left the first floor, and suddenly slapped his high-fives, and hurriedly looked at the stone basin with his pupils.
But at this glance, Lu Qingyu was suddenly disappointed again, he thought that he had found a way to solve the problem, but he didn't expect that even under the gaze of Ning Guangtong, those stones did not exist!
However, although there was no trace of the stone, Lu Qingyu found that there were seven small holes of different sizes and colors at the bottom of the stone basin, and he didn't know what it was used for.
The condensing pupil dissipated, and the seven small holes disappeared in an instant, replaced by those few stones that did not exist!
I tried the opportunity repeatedly, and the results were all the same.
However, after repeated comparisons, Lu Qingyu slowly discovered that the shape, size, and color of the seven small holes could correspond to the seven stones one by one!
Could it be that by placing these seven stones into the corresponding holes, you can open the way out of here?
Lu Qingyu gently tapped his heart with his knuckles, carefully calculating various possibilities, but in the end he found that only this method was more reliable.
But those stones don't exist, so how can they move and put them in their place!
Lu Qingyu bit his lip and looked outside the pavilion, but found that at some point, the lake had spread to a position that was almost level with the railing.
Because of the meager light film blocking, the lake water could not pour into the pavilion at this time, but the light film was obviously slightly deformed, if it was delayed for a while or three, it might not be able to block the invasion of the lake.
If you really want to let the pavilion sink, the lake will flood in, and even if you escape, you will never be able to open the passage to the next floor.
What to do!
How is it possible to move seven non-existent stones into position!
Lu Qingyu circled around the stone basin a few times, seriously looking at the seven visible and elusive stones, but he still didn't find anything, and in desperation, Lu Qingyu had no choice but to take the Ning Guang pupil again and look at the stone basin for the last attempt.
If this time doesn't work, then he'll have to find a way to leave the pavilion first.
Because with the gradual sinking of the small pavilion, Lu Qingyu had gradually felt an inexplicable palpitation, as if there was some unknowable crisis in the endless lake that was rapidly approaching.
At his level, generally speaking, this sense of foreknowledge of a crisis is very accurate, and something that can make him highly nervous before he has seen it must not be an easy existence! ^-^^-^
