Gradually, Xiao He got used to fleeing underwater, and he regarded this as a practice, being dragged by the golden carp to sink and float in the water to cultivate. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 info For the attack of the fierce birds, Xiao He and the others became more and more comfortable.

Finally, one day, Gu Le recovered, and when he opened his eyes, he was surprised to see a large school of golden carp.

Floating above the water, Xiao He exhaled and said: "We are using this carp to escape the hunt of the king of birds, you should be careful yourself, and you should also be careful underwater." ”

"Understood. Gu Le didn't dare to slack off, so he took a breath and dived down with Xiao He and Wang Yao.

Fortunately, the riverbed of the river is very deep, and there is no need to worry about the attack of the fierce birds when diving to the bottom, and the top of the head is full of golden carp, although they will not take the initiative to attack, but if they are annoyed, the claws of the birds will not be comfortable.

In less than a day, Chen Tangtai also recovered, and followed Xiao He and the others underwater in a daze.

The blue light shining on the bottom of the lake is spectacular against the golden carp. Suddenly, Xiao He was woken up, and he pushed out of his cultivation state in confusion, and looked above his head in the direction pointed by Wang Yao, and sunlight appeared above the river, which meant that they were out of the range of green mist.

Swimming out of the water with some excitement, he often breathed a sigh of relief when he looked at the green mist rolling behind him, "It's finally out." ”

"Wow!" came the unwilling voice of the fierce bird in the mist, but it no longer caught up, which made everyone finally feel at ease, floating on the water, being dragged by the carp to continue swimming upstream.

"Captain, we have lost contact with the Earth side, it is too far away, there is no signal relay station in between, and communication cannot be established at all. Gu Le said, holding up his terminal.

"If you don't contact us, you have to complete the task. Xiao He sighed and said, "Find the original human beings and find out the reason why the alien beasts attacked the earth." ”

"Understood. ”

"Let's go ashore and recuperate, it's not an idea to be in the water all the time. ”

"Captain, there's a waterfall ahead!"

Xiao He glanced at the tall waterfall and said, "Go ashore, this amount of water can instantly crush us." ”

So the four of them swam towards the side of the river, and standing on the shore, Chen Tangtai looked at the golden carp that was still struggling to swim forward, and asked some questions: "Do they still want to swim upstream?"

"Maybe there's something up there. Xiao He said with his somewhat sorely swollen body, staying underwater all the time, and suddenly the pressure on the shore suddenly decreased, and his body needed a certain amount of time to adapt.

"Let's go up and have a look, anyway, the green fog is already out, so I'm not afraid of anything for the time being. ”

"Yes. Xiao He nodded, took out the floating skateboard to recharge it, and led everyone towards the waterfall.

On the way, Xiao He let a reconnaissance guard hover in the air, and with the help of the high-altitude vision transmitted back, Xiao He found that they had entered the mountainous area.

"The fog is so large?" said several of them, looking a little surprised.

They had always felt that the green mist was created from the pit of bones, and that it would not be wide.

"I guess this green mist is produced in more than one place, but what is it for?"

"For what? An old voice rang out. The four of them instantly went on the defensive.

"Who?" Xiao He asked in a deep voice.

"Put away your weapons, it's of no use to me. An old man in a silk robe who looked like a fisherman appeared in front of Xiao He and the others.

"Who are you?"

The old man didn't answer Xiao He's question, took a puff of dry smoke and said, "This was originally Yaochi, one of the holy places of this heaven and earth. ”

"Yao Chi!" everyone was very surprised, in ancient legends, Yao Chi is the dojo of the Queen Mother of the West, with the peach god tree, and the fruit has the effect of resurrecting the dead.

"Looks like you've heard of it. The old man smacked his dry smoke and glanced at Xiao He and the others: "You are from the ancestral realm, right?"

"Ancestral Realm?"

"Legend has it that the people in this world are all from the ancestral realm, but the way back is blocked, so we can only stay here. ”

"Wait, you're human?"

"Humans, not those beasts anyway. The old man laughed.

"Senior, who are you?" Xiao He asked, he couldn't feel the source energy fluctuations on the old man's body, there were only two situations, one was an ordinary person, and the other was that his cultivation was too much higher than Xiao He, obviously the old man belonged to the latter.

"I'm a fisherman, and I used to have a bird, but I flew into the green mist and never came out again. The old man knocked his pipe and walked up the waterfall with his hands behind his back.

"Birds?" Xiao He only had the picture of the fierce bird chasing them in his mind, and he glanced at Wang Yao and swallowed unconsciously. The king of birds is the bird he raised, what a big deal this is.

The waterfall is so high that when viewed up close, it feels unattainable, and the huge amount of water pouring down can easily crush a person in an instant.

Before, when viewed from a distance, it only felt majestic, but now it looks like each one is tall and abnormal, like an ancient sacred mountain.

Xiao He and the others stepped on the skateboard and slowly followed the old man upward, on the way they could see the golden carp in the waterfall struggling to swim up, some carp bodies were cracked, and even worse, they were directly pressed back to the bottom of the waterfall.

"What are they doing this for?" Xiao He asked.

"When you go up the mountain, you'll know. "The old man didn't say anything, he deliberately sold Guanzi, and Xiao He and the others had no other way.

Everyone walked for three hours to actually reach the top of the mountain, and sighed with some surprise: "Are the mountains here so high?"

"Not exactly, not much higher. The old man smoked a dry cigarette leisurely.

Xiao He and the others looked around at the top of the mountain, and a spiritual spring on the top of the wide mountain continued to gush out of the spring water, forming a waterfall.

"That's a lot of water pressure!"

"Waterfalls on both sides!"

"Spectacular, if only you could take pictures. ”

"Ahem!" Xiao He coughed lightly, and the three of them quickly shut up, now is not the time for sightseeing.

A golden carp finally swam up, huge in size, with an abyss-like breath, standing at the peak of the second realm!

"Is the carp jumping over the dragon gate?" Xiao He suddenly whispered.

The old man looked at Xiao He, with a little appreciation in his eyes, and slowly spoke: "These carp rely on the pressure of going upstream, and only the peak of the second realm can reach here, and if you cross the spiritual spring, you will have a chance to become a king, and swim along the river on the other side until you reach the royal city." ”

"Wang Cheng?" Xiao He subconsciously spoke.

"You know?" the old man raised an eyebrow.

Xiao He smiled and didn't speak, but looked at the golden carp.

"In the past, these carps were just some ornamental fish free-range in Yaochi, and then they were enlightened by the Queen Mother of the West and had the ability to practice, but their spiritual intelligence was too low, and they were just following the tradition, so at most they could only be a carp in the royal realm. ”

"No wonder, if the spiritual intelligence is too high, it will not let Xiao He and the others hitchhike. ”

I saw that the carp, with fine cracks all over its body, agitated its mouth, flicked its tail violently, and the fish jumped out of the water and "flew" towards the other end of the spiritual spring.

But it was so tired that it had exhausted all its strength to reach the top, and it was important to know that it could not stop for a moment against the current, otherwise it would be eliminated. The jump was not high enough, and the golden body fell back into the water, without success.

"Alas. The old man sighed, shook his hand, and a thread appeared, directly detaining the carp that was about to be washed down.

"It only gets one chance, it's life or death. The old man looked at the carp whose life was slowly passing and spoke.

Xiao He looked at the side of the mountaintop, which was a bronze ancient hall, dilapidated.
