Chapter 57: Contradiction
Zhang Xuanji looked at the pool of water in front of him, his face showed emotion, and he finally breathed a sigh of relief.
"Netherworld Pool has arrived, and the mission of this trip has reached the last step."
Hear this.
Everyone's faces were filled with joyful smiles.
It's been more than three months since I came out this time, and I've had enough of sleeping in the wild places along the way.
Now that you have got the Demon Suppression Stone, the day of returning home is just around the corner, how can you not be happy?
The Wild Lands are really too dangerous.
Compared to the two, Shanhaiguan is simply a paradise.
"However, don't take it lightly, those who travel a hundred miles are half ninety, and before we send the Demon Suppression Stone back to the Guannai, we still have to remain vigilant."
"Dean Zhang is right."
The Elder of the Cave Xuan Realm bowed his head lightly in agreement.
The disciples knew the seriousness of the matter, and quickly put away their slackness.
"Okay, rest on the spot for a stick of incense, take the Careful Pill, and prepare to take the Demon Stone." Zhang Xuanji commanded.
Subsequently.
He gently blew out the black candle in his hand and carefully withdrew it into his arms.
"Elders, come with me."
Concubine Liu glanced at him, and then followed him to the edge of the Netherworld.
Looking at the strange pool water in front of them, which was sometimes dark green and sometimes light blue, Concubine Liu and the others were a little surprised.
Since entering the Dark Night Heavenly Sea, except for the two large arrays that have been laid one after another, there is a deep darkness as far as the eye can see.
I didn't expect this pool of water to be of other colors.
Among the team of thirty people, only Zhang Xuanji has ever been to the Netherworld.
He crouched down and was about to put his hand into the pool.
"Dean Zhang, be careful." Concubine Liu's face changed slightly, and she said busily.
However.
The danger was not as expected.
I saw Zhang Xuanji lightly holding the pool of water, and after looking at it, he let go of his hand.
He secretly breathed a sigh of relief, turned his head to Concubine Liu and said, "It's okay, this pool of water is not dangerous, and from a rough point of view, it is no different from when I came here the first few times." ”
Concubine Liu's brows stretched, her expression softened, she glanced at the calm pool of water with a radius of about fifty zhang, and asked:
"Dean Zhang, I don't know where the Demon Suppression Stone is?"
Hearing this, Zhang Xuanji pointed to the Netherworld Pond and said: "This pond has its own mysteries, and there is a place about three feet into the water, and there is a cave in the sky, and the Demon Suppression Stone is hidden in the cave sky." ”
Several elders did not doubt him, and slowly bowed their heads.
After saying that, his gaze slowly swept over the five people, and suddenly said in a deep voice:
"To ensure safety, which elder would be willing to go down and investigate first?"
As soon as these words came out, five voices suddenly sounded.
"I'm willing to go."
No one flinched, not only from the Alchemy Academy, nor from the Array Court.
Several people glanced at each other, and one of the tall men stretched out his hand to block everyone, and said in an urn:
"Elders don't fight, I'm the most suitable person."
Seeing this, Zhang Xuanji pondered and followed up:
"That's true, Elder Gao is the elder of law enforcement, he has a lot of experience, and he is the peak of the Cave Xuan Realm, and his strength is high.
If you encounter danger, you can also maneuver around one or two, then it will be hard for Elder Gao to make a trip. ”
As soon as he spoke, the coffin was closed, and the rest of the people had no objections.
Subsequently.
Zhang Xuanji told this high elder in detail about the specific location of the cave, as well as some precautions and so on.
They are still preparing to go into the water.
As everyone knows.
Qi Huai had already gone into the water.
He sat next to Gu Xiaoran, without any sense of existence.
A "Qi Cultivation Realm" that did not attract anyone's attention at all.
But in fact, he had already quietly pricked up his ears and took into his ears all the words that Zhang Xuanji and others said.
And he also sent an avatar to sneak into the Netherworld Pool from a place that several people hadn't noticed.
In the dark night and the sea, Wu felt the restrictions, so no one noticed it at all.
After entering the water.
Qi Huai first felt a sticky feeling, and the pool water seemed to be heavy.
This was followed by a biting coldness and an inexplicable chill.
It's like you're in the netherworld.
After all, the avatar is not the body, and it does not have such a powerful physique.
However, this did not affect his movements, and after diving three feet underwater, his body slowly grew larger and returned to normal.
At the same time, a crimson flame appeared on the fingertips, briefly acting as a beacon.
Qi Huai looked up, but he couldn't see Zhang Xuanji and the others on the shore.
He looked down again, and he couldn't see how deep the Netherworld Pool really was.
Without any further delay, Qi Huai began to look for another cave that Zhang Xuanji said.
Soon.
He found a hole at the edge of the pool, which was two people high and one wide, and the shape was irregular, and there were no traces of man for the time being.
Qi Huai swam in directly.
As soon as he entered the cave, he felt that his body was light, and the water in the pool did not flow in.
Qi Huai looked at it and was amazed.
He walked inward, and found that the passage was getting bigger and bigger, and when he had reached dozens of steps, he suddenly became clear.
Sure enough, as Zhang Xuanji said, Tan Di has a cave.
The interior is very large, and at a cursory glance, it is about three or five miles, and there are all kinds of glowing stones everywhere.
Under the reflection of the colors, it is a little beautiful.
Qi Huai had never seen the Demon Suppression Stone, and he didn't know which one it was.
On the surface, though, it doesn't seem to be dangerous.
At this time, the high elder on the shore was already preparing to enter the water.
Qi Huai didn't linger any longer, turned around and went out of the cave, and swam directly towards the deeper part of the Netherworld.
This Netherworld Pool is a bit of a miracle.
The further he went, the more viscous he felt around him, and the darker the water became.
By the time Elder Gao entered the cave, Qi Huai had already gone down ten zhang deeper, and he still couldn't see the end.
Suddenly.
He stopped suddenly, frowned, and the divine fire wrapped around his fingertips quietly increased a little.
"Why is this pool of water several times colder than it was before?"
And.
The new feeling of coldness gave him a sense of déjà vu, very familiar.
This is certainly not a delusion.
Qi Huai continued downstream, looking for the source of the cold.
It's a pity.
Until Elder Gao came ashore, he didn't find anything, and he found nothing.
......
The other side.
Several people were relieved to see Elder Gao come out safe and sound.
"How?" Zhang Xuanji asked.
Elder Gao nodded with a serious expression and replied, "The cave has been found, and there are a lot of Demon Suppression Stones, so it seems that there is no danger for the time being."
But ......"
He suddenly showed a sad look on his face, and said heavily: "The remains of the three elders of Lin... Also in the cave. ”
Hear the words.
Several people were shocked in unison, and they all looked sad.
The three elders of Elder Lin were the three elders sent by Shanhaiguan to find the Demon Suppression Stone before, but they didn't expect that something really happened.
However.
Qi Huai, who had been eavesdropping on them, was stunned for a moment.
