Chapter 162 Unexpected
When Suren woke up, he found himself in an endless ocean.
All around was icy water, dead silence, no waves, only he floated on a piece of dead wood, stirring up some turbulent ripples, but also disappeared for a short time.
He looked around, but he didn't see the black dragon.
In his memory, the jade pearl finally directly teleported the two together, which was something he didn't expect.
He didn't know why this was happening, maybe it was because Jade Mingzhu couldn't be accurately controlled, or maybe the damaged bead couldn't be completely controlled, but the result was obvious.
He should have been under the threat of the black dragon.
Now he looked carefully at everything around him, only the water surface that could not be seen, let alone the black dragon, and not even a single fish had ever turned out of the water.
It was a place forgotten by the world, a dead silence, a dead silence.
Su Lun didn't dare to act rashly, he glanced at the sky, where the blood moon still existed, as if it meant that this place was still in the forbidden land, but that's all, he couldn't see more information.
He had just gone through a series of battles, and was in need of rest at the moment, and after a short period of wakefulness, he fell into a deep sleep again, only keeping a trace of his mind around.
In this way, he didn't know how long he had been wandering, and after waking up, he would cultivate, and when he was tired, he would cultivate his divine thoughts, but the effect was not too good, after all, the surrounding Xuan Qi was still relatively rare.
It's hard to have a true sense of time here, and the moon in the sky changed from blood-red to dim and then from dim to blood-red, and it wasn't until after two cycles that Suren felt something change around him.
First of all, the concentration of the surrounding Xuan Qi continued to increase, and soon it became normal in the outside world, and it continued to thicken.
And then came the sky, and when the blood moon appeared, its effect was much lighter, and Su Lun could already face it squarely without being affected too much.
After a while, at a certain moment, he noticed that there seemed to be a light flickering in front of him.
Thinking that he had misunderstood, Suren jumped up from the driftwood and focused on the way ahead.
It's true!
His eyes lit up, and after floating for an unknown amount of time, he finally saw something else again.
Soon, like a float washed up on the beach, the current gradually washed him towards the place where the light was.
As he got closer, the glimmer of light grew larger, and he began to see the glowing thing clearly.
That's a piece of land!
A land that did not look very large, only a dozen meters in diameter, floated silently in this vast and endless lake, emitting a faint golden light.
It was strange enough for this land to float on the water, but Su Lun was surprised to find that the surrounding water was rushing to this land.
But how is this possible? What is the attraction of the land itself? What is hidden underneath? Suren does not know.
When he wanted to get close to the land, he was wary for no reason.
He reacted instantly, and abruptly interrupted the piece of driftwood, standing on one of them, trying his best to keep it from drifting towards the land, while the other piece of driftwood broke out of his control and soon surged towards the land with the current.
And then, Su Lun's eyes widened in shock.
When the driftwood reached the side of the land, it disappeared directly!
Right under Su Lun's nose, it sank slightly, and then disappeared, as if it had been swallowed by something, and its speed was so fast that Su Lun couldn't see it clearly.
He was startled, and hurriedly pushed the driftwood under his feet away from here with his Xuan Qi, glad that he had not recklessly approached the land.
But then he frowned again, what should he do at this time?
After thinking for a moment, Su Lun gritted his teeth, and finally made up his mind and jumped directly into the water.
At this time, he had to change something, since there was something wrong with that land, he thought about going underwater to see if he could find something, and he had been floating for so long, and he had never seen any monsters underwater, relatively speaking, it seemed that it was safer underwater.
The cold water was constantly flowing around him, and Su Lun used the Xuan Qi Hood to isolate the surrounding water, and now with his cultivation, it was enough to hold his breath underwater for a long time.
He looked at the land and saw that it was still about a few meters below the surface of the water, and the water around him kept rushing there, although not very fast, but when it entered the cylindrical area, it disappeared in an instant.
Suren didn't come any closer, but stayed close to the surface of the water for a while, and when he realized that there were really no monsters underwater, he continued to dive down.
10 meters, 20 meters, 50 meters......
He felt the pressure of the water around him grow, and the glow from the land had long since faded.
A few hundred meters later, as far as the eye could see, there was absolute darkness, and he opened his mind to the maximum, always paying attention to the movements around him.
Suddenly, the mind seemed to touch something.
"What the hell?!" Su Lun was stunned for a moment, and then continued to rush down.
"Boom-"
When he felt that he was about to touch the bottom of the water, he ignited the Xuan Fire in the Xuan Qi Hood, and in an instant, the fire light dissipated the endless darkness, and everything under him appeared in his eyes.
Dozens of meters deep, under this unknown water, in the endless darkness, there is a whole underwater structure!
Su Lun opened his eyes wide and made it clear that this should be a living area.
Because he could see some rows of standard buildings, and a few attics like Danfang.
He landed gently, causing as little ripple as possible at the bottom, and then slowly walked forward to the buildings.
The outermost part is not the wall, but the uniformly constructed rooms that I just saw, forming a circle around some of the buildings inside.
Suren walked into a house and pushed the door open with his hand.
"Click......
He watched as the door broke into knots, and then the shards scattered and floated in response to the disturbance he had caused, but did not rise to the surface.
It's been too long......
Su Lun thought, he knew that although this door was made of special materials, it had been soaked in this water for too long, and it had already decayed in the long-term erosion environment.
He cautiously walked into the room, which contained very little furniture, a table, chair and bed.
He exited and went into the next room, the furnishings were almost the same, differing only in the style of the tables and chairs, and he walked through several rooms in a row.
This is the residential area, Suren thought.
He thought of several other places, the bronze giant gate where he had inadvertently entered the forbidden land at the beginning, and the Yuming Sect where he was some time ago, which made him have to wonder what kind of place the forbidden land was.
If the Jade Ming Sect came here by accident, then what is going on with this place? Could it be that the owner of the bronze giant gate and this underwater building also came to the forbidden land by accident?
Su Lun was full of doubts in his heart, but he couldn't get any answers, so he could only continue to look from room to room, hoping to find some clues.
When he walked into another room, he found something different.
It was a room with a somewhat different furnishings, and the walls were adorned with delicate ornaments, like the place of a female monk, and he certainly couldn't see anything from them, but what really excited him was a small notebook on the table.
Although there was no writing on the cover of this book, Su Lun also saw that he should be read and written often.
I don't know what kind of material this book is made of.,It looks like it's more resistant to washing than that door.,There's only traces of being turned over and used on it.,There's no sign of damage.。
He thought for a moment, but still confessed to the void, and then gently opened the notebook.
"Day 1"
"This is our first day here, I don't know what to do, the task that Master gave me hasn't been completed yet......
"Day 2"
"It turns out that this is a new task, it seems that there are not enough people, and the elders have other things, so they let us disciples come here, but, what are we here for? Just let us build things? It looks like a prison cell......"
"Day 3"
......
Su Lun looked at a few pages in a row, and found that this seemed to be the daily record of a female cultivator who likes to keep a diary after coming here.
He hesitated, but decided to continue reading, although reading other people's diaries is a little inauthentic, but now that his life is at stake, he can't care so much.
"Day 12"
"It's finally finished today, it's really some prison cells, and they're made of extremely strong materials, I don't know who it's for, if you make a mistake among us, there's no need for it, and there are also thoughts in the sect......
"Thirteenth Day"
"The mission is done, why don't we go back? What are you waiting for? I miss the back mountain of the sect so much, the moon cloud flower should be blooming at this moment......
......
"Day 20"
"There are a lot of things that have been locked up today! What are they? They are all strange, like monsters!"
"Twenty-first day"
"These things turned out to be monsters, the sect was actually attacked, and the same is true of other sects, these visitors are really hateful, they should be locked in!"
Monster......
Su Lun couldn't help but be shocked when he saw this sensitive word, the black dragon monster still didn't know whether he was alive or dead, and at this moment, he saw the name of the monster at the bottom of the sea again.
Which sect was her, and if the mainland was under attack at that time, why didn't there be a record of even a few words?
A trace of doubt rose in Su Lun's heart, feeling that what this female cultivator was talking about did not seem to be the Yuming Sect, and it might not even be the sect on this continent.
He continued to look down.
"Day 30"
"These monsters are so vicious, they don't even have any sense, they just know how to roar blindly and grin at anyone, that is, their self-healing ability is too strong, it is difficult to kill them, otherwise none of them should be left!"
"I don't know how the sect is resisting the invasion of foreign enemies, I heard that some weak sects can't withstand it anymore and have been captured......
At this point, Su Lun found that the focus of the girl's diary gradually changed, from daily trivial matters to sect wars.
"Day 31"
"Senior brother has sent news, it seems that the battle situation of the sect is not optimistic, but ...... We are one of the strongest sects, could it be that this continent is really going to fall?"
"I hope they go back, they are all living beings, isn't it good for everyone to live in peace......?
After this, Su Lun found that the nun had not recorded for several days, as if something had delayed, and the next page of records went directly to a week later.
"Day 38"
"Why...... Why are there casualties?!Master...... Bro...... I hate it so much, if I am very strong, I can go to the enemy......"
"The monsters here also seem to be a little restless, and their strength seems to be increasing. Is it because there is plenty of Xuan Qi here? It is said that in their homeland, Xuan Qi is like a luxury. ”
"But...... This can't be a reason to pity them, Master, Senior Brother, your revenge, Yuan'er will definitely avenge you!"
"The Fortieth Day"
"The monster has really become stronger, and the disciples of other sects next to it have been inadvertently injured through the cell!"
"The sect has completely cut off contact with us, the passage has been broken, I don't know what the battle situation is there......
"Day 45"
"Extinguished...... Nothing exists anymore...... Master, sect, continent, doomsday ......"
"Shizun finally teleported this land to another continent, and when we can break the seal, we can walk on this continent, Shizun said, when the time comes, we will be the most powerful cultivators on this continent. ”
"But...... Yuan'er is so uncomfortable...... Without a home and relatives, what is Yuan'er alive for?"
Su Lun's brows were slightly frowned and he was a little moved, from these words, he could feel the mental journey of this female cultivator, which was an extreme reversal, from innocence and love, to a great change in his heart.
He sighed and thought to himself, this is the world of cultivators, cruel and bloody, and you can give everything for resources......
He shook his head, banished the thoughts from his mind, looked at the next few pages, and continued reading.
And after reading these last pages, he finally realized what a terrifying thing was hidden in the forbidden land.
"The Fiftieth Day"
