Chapter 287: Deep Sea Amethyst
Wu Wei and Lu Ran made some preparations under the arrangement of Yi Qi, mainly because even the Qinghe River is basically on the bottom of the sea, and some parts of it are in disrepair, and there must be seawater inflow, but the time limit for avoiding water beads is relatively short.
Yi Po could only wrap them with the power of his water phase, but after all, the two of them were mortals, and the process was a little more complicated, taking a few days, and when they were able to walk in the Ling Ye Palace without using the water beads, it would be done.
"Brother, husband, Mr. Qin, you must pay attention to safety." Before leaving, Saori said with a worried face.
"Saori, after we leave, you will take the child to find the father, you can rest assured, we will definitely return safely." Lu Ran touched Saori's face and said.
"Saori, don't worry, the eldest brother will definitely take care of them, and besides, the Nine-Tails Lord over there didn't also come in from the other end and join us at the eye of the array, if she is there, there should be no problem." Yi Qi also walked over and said.
Yes, a few days ago, they contacted Mu Xiyun through the Weiqing Mirror, asking her to enter the Lianqing River from the spring and find them along the Lianqing River, so that if they set off at both ends, the time would be much less.
Moreover, in order to remove the enchantment of the shield of the water phase, it is necessary to find the eye of the trapped merman, and this situation can only be completed by Mu Xiyun alone, even if the squid can't do it.
In Saori's reluctant farewell, Wuwei and Lu Ran followed Yi Wei to the forbidden place of Ling Ye Palace.
Ling Ye Palace is a palace in the deep sea, stretching for miles from top to bottom, each palace extends vertically down, and the entrance to the Lianqing River is in the deepest forbidden place.
Just after coming out of the gate separating the Lingye Palace and the forbidden land, there were already deep sea krakens roaming around, but these little demons were afraid of the squids and didn't dare to step forward at all, they just wandered around them, and there were chilling screams.
Yi Ran didn't seem to care, just silently walked down the steps, Lu Ran walked, stepped on a gap in disrepair and fell.
"How? Is there something wrong? The squid quickly turned around and asked.
"It's okay, it's just too dim and I can't see my feet clearly." Lu Ran stood up with the support of Wuwei, the skin on his calf had been scratched, and blood flowed down.
And this smell of blood inspired the krakens next to them, and their cries became more terrible, and their wandering speed became faster and faster.
"Did the blood on Brother Lu's leg anger them?" Wuwei asked with some fear.
"These are the krakens who live in the deep sea, the scavengers who are not happy and wise, and they must be restless when they smell the blood of mortals." Yi Qi looked to the side and said.
"Brother, if you're here, they shouldn't dare to come forward."
"Well, but don't be unguarded, they wander in the deep sea all year round, dark and claustrophobic, where do they know my identity, they are just afraid of the power of the merman clan." As he spoke, he ripped off the night pearl hanging from his belt.
As soon as it was triggered with spiritual power, the Night Pearl immediately emitted a dazzling light, illuminating the entire deep sea.
Originally, the dark environment could only hear the sound, but now that it was bright, it made Wu Wei and Lu Ran gasp in fright, it turned out that there were hundreds of krakens wandering around them, and the light of the night pearl shone on the sharp teeth in their mouths.
But the good thing is that because they have become accustomed to the dark environment, once there is a light they dare not stay any longer, and it quickly disperses.
"Did these Krakens live here in the first place?"
"It's not all, some of them are sinful mermaids, who were thrown into this deep sea after peeling off the demon pill, and over time they will be reduced to this." Yi Qian replied lightly.
As he spoke, he had reached the gate of the forbidden land, which was a sealed gate, and the carved patterns on it could still show the solemnity of the beginning, but now it was decayed.
Yi Qi took out the key to the main hall from his arms, picked up the seaweed on the door, carefully found the keyhole, and inserted the key into it.
This key was originally made of deep-sea amethyst, originally only emitting a faint purple glow, but now as soon as it is inserted into the keyhole, countless purple pattern imprints burst out along the keyhole on the entire door.
It can be seen that this pattern should be some kind of powerful enchantment, and when all the lines are lit up, the squirrels begin to cast spells, and the door slowly squeaks open.
With the opening of the enchantment, the krakens outside gathered again, and the number was much more than before, dense, which really made people feel terrifying.
The squirrels looked back and sighed, folded their hands together, forming a huge ball of water in the middle, and then slammed towards the krakens.
The water ball formed a huge shock wave, knocking all those krakens away like a cannonball, and the bottom of the sea was quiet in an instant.
"Let's go, let's go in, there are a lot of krakens, I opened the forbidden land barrier and alarmed them, and there will be more later." Saying that, the squid was the first to enter the door.
Wu Wei and Lu Ran looked outside, and hurriedly followed Yi Qi into the gate, as the three of them entered, the gate slowly closed, Wu Wei glanced back, and when the gate was closed, he also killed a few krakens who wanted to break in.
The scene in front of me was completely different from the outside, the outside of the gate was dark and claustrophobic, and inside was a bottomless passage, and the walls were covered with deep-sea amethysts everywhere, shining on the entire passage, and this purple light added a touch of mystery to this Lianqing River.
"Lianqing River, Lianqing River, I always thought it should be the same as the river in the mortal world, green and clear, it turned out to be a purple cave." Wuwei looked at the scene in front of him and said in surprise.
"Lianqing River, as the name suggests, is to connect Qingqiu, why is it called a river, Mr. Qin can take a closer look." Yi Qi also laughed and said.
Following the direction he pointed, Wu Wei looked at the dim light, and there was a thin purple river on the ground, about the thickness of a person's wrist, and if you looked closely, you could see a light blue liquid flowing inside.
"Brother Qin, is there really a river?" Lu Ran said with a smile.
Then he crouched down, trying to touch the pale blue liquid with his hand, but the squirrels grabbed him.
"Lu Ran, don't move! These pale blue liquids are all made up of the undead of the merman clan after death, and if you move, it will disturb your soul and hurt yourself. ”
When Lu Ran heard him say this, he was so frightened that he quickly retracted his hand, and then stared at the thin river again in a sweat.
"Prince, why did the mermaid clan gather here after their death?" Wuwei asked suspiciously.
"Each race has its own way of producing and dying, after you mortals die, their souls will be classified into ghosts, and then they will be reborn in a cycle, but after our merman race dies, they will be buried in water, that is, thrown into the deep sea, and the flesh will be eaten by those krakens outside, and eventually the souls and the undead will gather here, and the same is true of Qingqiu, it is said that it is buried in the ground, and the spiritual power returns to the earth to nourish all things." Yi Qi smiled and said.
"So where are you going from here? Will it also end up being reincarnated? Lu Ran also asked.
"No, the undead who came here are actually just the little spiritual power he has left, and finally went to the depths of here to nourish the growth of these deep-sea amethysts." Yi Qi raised his head and looked at the amethyst of all sizes on the wall and said.
"By the way, prince, what is the use of these amethysts? I just saw that the key you took out is also made of amethyst. ”
"You only say that there are pearls and pearls in the deep sea, but you don't know that this is the most precious secret treasure of our shark race, because of the existence of this deep sea amethyst, the Ling Ye Palace can stand tall in the deep sea, and all the clansmen also rely on the spiritual power of the amethyst, for us, this is the most important thing for the shark race."
Yi Wei smiled back at them, and then continued to walk inside, while Wu Wei glanced at those deep-sea amethysts on the wall, and there was a little more awe in his heart.
