Chapter 87: Ancient Corpses at the Bottom of the Lake
Nine hundred kilometers.
For the second-order demon beast Sword Tiger, it was just a two-hour journey.
Wading through mountains and rivers all the way, coupled with the sword and tiger exuding the aura of the king of beasts, made the surrounding demon beasts dare not show up, unimpeded.
Jiang Chen sat on the back of the Sword Tiger until he came to the mysterious place in the mouth of the Sword Tiger.
"This is the mysterious place you are talking about?" Jiang Chen jumped down, his clear eyes shining with essence.
It is located between mountains.
The surrounding hundreds of kilometers are rugged and steep, rocky mountains full of strange rocks, and ordinary strong people can't enter them at all.
If it weren't for the sword tiger leading the way, even if he passed by nearby, he might not be able to find such a hidden place.
"It was the lake in front of me that I discovered by chance when I was chasing a strong human being. I also tried to explore it, but every time I approached the lake, I felt breathless, and my intuition told me that if I got any closer to the lake, it would be dangerous, so I had to give up. Later, Black Wind and the others also came, and they were all like me, and they didn't dare to go near that lake!"
The Sword Tiger lay on Jiang Chen's side and said respectfully, "King, you have to be careful later, the human being who was hunted down by me back then is also a True Martial Realm powerhouse." When he fled to about fifty meters from the lake, he burst and died. ”
When it comes to the fate of the True Martial Realm powerhouse at the beginning, even after decades, the Sword Tiger still can't help but be afraid for a while.
Jiang Chen frowned: "None of the True Martial Realm powerhouses can get close to it for fifty meters, I want to see what's so strange about this lake!"
"Great, great, can I wait for you here?"
The Sword Tiger glanced at Jiang Chen and asked cautiously.
His body was trembling slightly, for fear of upsetting Jiang Chen, so he beheaded him and stewed tiger whip soup!
Jiang Chen glanced at him: "Treat me here obediently, I have left a soul mark on you, no matter where you run, I can find you." If you don't obey, be careful that I cut your whip and stew!"
"Understood, understood!"
The sword tiger nodded again and again, looking like a well-behaved cat, "Don't worry, the king will never escape!"
Jiang Chen got up and swept out, approaching the strange lake.
500 meters......
300 meters......
One hundred and fifty meters......
Until he was a hundred meters away from the lake, Jiang Chen felt that the air seemed to be much thinner, and even his breathing became unsmooth.
"Sure enough, there are weird ......"
As soon as his eyes froze, the "Xuanhuang Immortal Technique" was opened, and a whirlpool appeared in the round of True Yuan Spiritual Sea in the dantian, and the True Yuan that had been condensed to the extreme flowed out and spread all over the limbs.
The whole body is loose!
Jiang Chen continued to move forward, approaching fifty meters, the terrifying oppressive force became stronger and stronger, and Jiang Chen's steps became heavy.
The speed of the Xuanhuang Immortal Recipe increased again, urging to the extreme, and golden true yuan light burst out from the body.
Shaking like the sun, bright as the stars, the whole body was loose, and it was not long before I came to the lake.
The water of the lake is blue and jade.
At a glance, I could see the bottom of the lake, there was no living thing in the lake, but there was a dark shadow at the bottom of the lake.
Looking closely, Jiang Chen's pupils shrank slightly, and it was actually a figure entrenched at the bottom of the lake. A cloud of black gas emanated from the body of this figure, and the terrifying oppressive force that permeated the air emanated from the body of this figure.
Grunt!
Jiang Chen subconsciously swallowed his saliva, according to the Sword Tiger, it has been decades since he found this place, which means that this figure has been in the lake for decades!
If this is a living person, what kind of terrifying power should it be?
If it is a dead man......
After death, he has such a terrifying power, so wouldn't his strength be even more terrifying?
Jiang Chen took a deep breath: "I want to see what kind of existence it is!"
As soon as he thought of this, Jiang Chen urged the "Xuanhuang Immortal Technique" to the extreme, and the light of the true yuan around his body was misty, turning into a layer of true yuan power that emitted golden brilliance to cover his body. Taking a big breath, a flutter burrows into the lake and swims towards the bottom. The closer you get to the black figure, the more terrifying the oppressive force becomes.
The surrounding lake water seemed to be invisibly guided, constantly crushing towards Jiang Chen from all directions.
It's like carrying a heavy mountain!
If it weren't for the "Xuanhuang Immortal Technique" to protect the flesh, the oppressive power of this lake alone would be able to crush a master of the ninth level of martial arts into a meat patty.
"Buzz!"
Suddenly......
The black figure seemed to raise its head, and in the darkness of the lake, two blood-red eyes burst out from his eyes. These are two substantial eyes, like rubies, incomparably terrifying, making people feel chills in their hearts. The surrounding lake squirmed violently, turning into a whirlpool, spinning wildly, wanting to devour Jiang Chen.
"!"
Jiang Chen's complexion changed, and his palms slapped the lake water again and again, and waves of true yuan fluctuations gushed out from his palms.
Zhenyuan slammed into the lake, blasting out columns of skyrocketing water, scattering the whirlpool.
"Humph!"
A cold snort came from above the black shadow, like a thunderbolt exploding at the bottom of the lake, and the whole lake was boiling.
The black demonic qi condensed into a pitch-black giant palm and slapped at Jiang Chen.
Jiang Chen lifted his sword and walked with him, going down the river, and was about to urge the sword technique, but at this moment, his right hand did not obey the call and trembled violently. On the index finger, the storage ring burst out with a brilliant black light, and as soon as the pitch-black giant palm touched the black light emitted by the ring, it disappeared in an instant.
The black light on the ring became brighter and brighter, and the black light directly repelled the surrounding lake water, and the ring vibrated violently, as if there was a huge force that wanted to take Jiang Chen to the black shadow.
"What's going on?" Jiang Chen was horrified in his heart, and his mind entered the storage ring.
I saw that the small black gourd was emitting a bright black glow, constantly impacting the space barrier of the storage ring, wanting to leave the storage ring.
All these changes actually come from this little black gourd!
"Isn't this the little black gourd I got from Jiang Hu? how did it become like this...... Could it be that it has something to do with the black shadow at the bottom of the lake?" Jiang Chen's eyes flashed, and he took out the small black gourd.
As soon as I left the storage ring.
The black gourd was surrounded by black light, turning into a round ball of light, enveloping Jiang Chen and the black shadow, and flew into the sky with a 'boom'.
Boom –
The black ball of light broke through the lake and landed steadily on the shore, the black light disappeared, and the small gourd flew towards the black shadow.
The black qi around the black shadow's body frantically poured into the small black gourd, losing the shroud of black qi and revealing its original face!
This is actually an old man with white hair and a withered beard.
The old man sat cross-legged, his eyes closed, and he had no breath.
This is an ancient corpse that has sunk to the bottom of the lake for decades, or even hundreds of years!
"I didn't expect it to be a corpse? I really didn't expect that a person who has been dead for tens or hundreds of years can still have such terrifying coercion...... It's just, how did he die? Why is he in this lake? And this black gourd, what does it have to do with this ancient corpse?" Jiang Chen raised his eyebrows, revealing a look of doubt.
At this time......
The black gourd had already absorbed all the black qi on the corpse, and the black gourd "hummed" and trembled slightly, and a crack began to spread from the bottom.
Click!
The black gourd breaks in half.
A roll of parchment paper quietly fell from the black gourd......
