Chapter 169

A few days later, most of the six had recovered from their injuries. Han Bing led everyone to open the secret door in the northeast corner of the hall, and through a vertical shaft, they came to the shore of the Netherworld Spring.

The lake formed by the Nether Spring is not calm, and from time to time there are a lot of bubbles and smoke coming out of the water, and the entire surface of the water seems to be boiling.

Han Bing and the others saw the small island in the center of the lake at a glance, just as they knew before, the entire small island was not big, but it was full of smoke and fire, and they couldn't see the situation inside.

Han Bing and the others hid behind a boulder, and under the protection of the smoke, the scope of divine sense exploration here was limited.

On an improvised pontoon bridge leading to the island, three or five monks could be seen faintly walking forward.

"Attention, these people are about to enter the trap, and when they are hit, immediately follow the method I said, catch them, and if they are disciples of the Xiuzhen Alliance, they will be thrown into the cage below. Han Bing whispered.

"What if it's an ordinary casual cultivator?" asked Su Tong.

"Unless there is a reason to save them, let them fend for themselves. Han Bing said lightly.

"Understood. ”

After saying that, everyone swallowed a pill into their mouth, these pills, which were the rings from the Twin Realms Walkers, were specially designed to prevent the invasion of the smoke miasma here. Each pill lasts for 12 hours. There was also a way to make this pill in the ring, and Han Bing gave it to Su Tong.

After about two pillars of incense, there seemed to be no movement on the island in the middle of the lake, Han Bing estimated that it was already time, and he was about to lead everyone out, but suddenly, his eyes inadvertently swept to the opposite corner of a staircase, and there was a group of figures, one of whom was Mu Qingying.

Han Bing hurriedly retracted his body, casting a spell to hide the aura of several people as much as possible, and his gaze was firmly fixed on Mu Qingying.

The lake formed by the Netherworld is enclosed in a large grotto, with two stairs on the north side that lead to the ground. The staircase where Mu Qingying is located, from the location where Han Bing is located, almost spans the entire lake, there is a distance, and Mu Qingying naturally did not find the existence of Han Bing and the others.

Han Bing waited with bated breath, but on the other side, Mu Qingying's group suddenly stopped near the surface of the lake and did not continue down.

"Did they find something wrong?" Han Bing muttered to himself.

Su Tong was also puzzled, she whispered: "Don't underestimate her soul power, she is stronger than ordinary people, you know." ”

Han Bing nodded, not daring to act rashly. At this time, it is safest to wait and see from the dark.

As Han Bing and the others expected, Mu Qingying did find out that something was wrong, and after countless losses and losses, she finally couldn't help but personally lead the team down to investigate.

The elder in front of Mu Qingying's eyes was like lightning, carefully observed the island, turned back to Mu Qingying and said, "Commander Mu, there is a problem here, you can't land on the island." ”

A smile appeared on the corner of Mu Qingying's mouth, and she said softly, "Elder Liu also found out?" At this moment, she finally understood why every time the reconnaissance troops sent out had gone and never returned.

At this time, Mu Qingying was still on the stairs, and there was still a height of several zhang from the shore of the Netherworld Spring below. Mu Qingying's gaze moved away from the island and began to look at the tumbling water. At the same time, her consciousness poured out, aiming directly at the surface of the lake.

The water was so cold that even the divine consciousness became sluggish.

Mu Qingying controlled her divine consciousness all the way down, the more she went down, the more shocked she became, she had already probed to a depth close to a hundred zhang, but she still hadn't reached the bottom, and her divine sense was almost at the limit here.

Mu Qingying was not reconciled, "Elder Liu, help me." She chuckled, sat cross-legged, her eyes closed, and more of her consciousness was released.

One hundred and twenty zhang, one hundred and thirty zhang, one hundred and forty zhang...... Suddenly, her body warmed, and the blessings from Elder Liu and many guards made her energy double, and her divine sense instantly exerted force, and she directly broke through to two hundred zhang.

Hey!

Mu Qingying finally discovered the clue, and her divine consciousness reached the depth of two hundred zhang, which should have been even colder, but she felt a scorching breath from the bottom very clearly.

Mu Qingying's heart was excited, and she continued to explore downward, two hundred and ten zhang, two hundred and thirty zhang...... The further down he went, the more intense this scorching aura became, and by the time he reached two hundred and sixty zhang, his divine consciousness could barely withstand this scorching scorching.

Beads of sweat appeared on Mu Qingying's forehead, soaking wet, and she continued to explore under pressure, but she couldn't bear to give up at this moment.

Two hundred and seventy zhang, two hundred and seventy-one zhang, every time she went deeper, she endured great suffering, and finally, the limit was reached, and her divine consciousness was fixed at a depth of two hundred and eighty zhang.

Elder Liu could feel Mu Qingying's state, and he was also anxious. This kind of divine consciousness fusion and blessing technique is a secret technique of the Cultivation Alliance, which only a few people can master, and the level that can be reached now is the limit of everyone present.

Whew-

Mu Qingying's body trembled, a trace of blood appeared at the corner of her mouth, her consciousness was overwhelmed, and after forcibly withdrawing it, she was somewhat damaged.

"Commander Mu!" Elder Liu hurriedly handed a pill that nourished his divine sense in front of her.

"Send someone to go underwater and explore, and don't go to the island. Although Mu Qingying's body was weak, she was still conscious.

"Captain Zuo, you take ten people down. Elder Liu said.

"Yes. ”

The group received the order, did not dare to delay, and hurriedly ran down the stairs.

Mu Qingying took the pill, breathed a little, and her body recovered a lot, her eyes were firmly fixed on the team that was preparing to dive underwater.

However, the unexpected happened.

Eleven people had obviously reached the water, but they couldn't dive anyway, and after testing it a few times, Captain Zuo hurriedly ran back.

"What's going on?" asked Elder Liu.

"Returning to Commander Mu, Elder Liu, the spring water is strange, and it is impossible to dive into it at all, as if the place below the water is a solid ice surface. ”

"What?" Mu Qingying was shocked, when she probed with her divine sense just now, she didn't detect the existence of ice at all.

At this time, the ten people who could not dive had already gone ashore, Mu Qingying once again poked out her divine sense and stretched into the water, but she still did not find the existence of ice, she has been exploring until fifty zhang, and there is no trace of the existence of ice.

"Why is this?" Mu Qingying retracted her consciousness and said to herself, her face solemn, this strange phenomenon made her feel quite uneasy.

At this time, on the shore about ten zhang away from their diving site, Han Bing was hiding in the void, with a sarcastic face, the ice was deliberately done by him, just to prevent the alliance from exploring.

Mu Qingying's consciousness was damaged, and she couldn't detect Han Bing's existence for the time being, and in her heart, the suspicion was even stronger. No matter what she had, she could never have imagined that Han Bing would actually appear here.

Elder Liu was silent for a long time, and then said, "Commander Mu, according to the old man, under this spring, it is better not to investigate, right? We have lost too many soldiers and generals recently, and if we take any more risks, I am afraid that I will ......."

"No," Mu Qingying shouted: "Captain Zuo, you take people to continue diving, I must find out." ”

"Yes. ”

Captain Zuo did not dare to disobey and respectfully retreated.
