The lake is located in the middle of a mountain range, and the stars are reflected in it.

Those stars were like primitive chalcedony in a cave, shining and flowing like crystal clear.

The same is true of the reflection in the lake, but it is gently blown by the wind, and the water ripples, and the star marks are scattered.

In the sparkling waves that gathered and scattered on the surface of the lake, Ning Shu and Xu Yuanxin looked at the area at the bottom of the lake.

The direction of the stars in the sky shows a certain pattern, and the corresponding light in the lake also shows a certain pattern.

And the gateway to the secrets of the lake should be discovered from these laws.

Different from Ning Shu's inference from the vulgar routines in the folk, Xu Yuanxin really unearthed useful information from the various classics he had read, so as to make the same judgment as Ning Shu.

"Kunlun is the head of the dragons of heaven and earth, and it is sent to the south, which is a vein of Nanshan, and there is a mountain in it, called the candle dragon. The candle dragon is in the south of the continent. There is a big water below, which flows for thousands of miles, and it is Jing Shui. There is a forest in it, it starts from the ground, it is longer than a thousand years, there is a small pool in the deep part of the forest, it is nameless, the pool is very strange, the water is clear, it is reflected in the sky, it is also ...... for the place of sacrifice."

"Where the mountain of candles and dragons converges in the land of Jingshui, there are many wind and rain, and clouds and mist are gathered. In ancient times, the Gonggong clan lived here for a long time, worked more, opened up wasteland, reproduced for future generations, and contained the art of clouds and rain, and the water flowed into the sea from here, and did not stop for thousands of years. ”

Xu Yuanxin said softly, this is the most comprehensive record of the Jing River and the mountains in the basin in the Yuxu Palace.

After Ning Shu listened carefully, he also had similar information in his mind, although he was not as rich as Xu Yuanxin knew, but he had also seen similar records, and he had to admit that even though the collection of books in the Taifu Tianya View was very rich, compared with the Immortal Palace, there was still a lot of gap.

After thinking for a moment, he said: "Combined with the records in the classics, this mountain range that started from Kunlun and went south has many branches, but there are very few Jing River flowing below, and there are not many river basins that can meet with the Jing River, plus there are small pools in the forest, and there are references like Yingtian......"

Then the picture in front of us is the place recorded in the book. ”

Xu Yuanxin looked at the lake in front of him, nodded and said: "When I first came to Nanlian Village, I remembered this record when I saw the water of the Jing River and Cangshan Mountain, as well as the perennial clouds and mist, and I can be sure after seeing this lake today." ”

"This is the holy lake of the Wu Gonggong clan during the flood period, you can't be wrong. ”

She sighed with some disbelief: "I didn't expect the inheritance of the Honghuang tribe to really be here. ”

Ning Shu was also in a trance for a while, the inheritance of the underworld in the Snow Country caused a shock in the entire cultivation world, so that all the major forces gathered in the southern country, and there was an ancient inheritance here that had not been set foot on, and more importantly, there were only two people here, him and Xu Yuanxin.

At the same time, it can also explain why this place has not been discovered, in fact, it is not that no one has found it, but even if others are aware of it, they will not be able to find it at all.

In ancient times, those cultivators who passed by the wind and rain crossing and praised this place as a blessed land may have noticed that there might be something hidden here, but they did not have the insight of Xu Yuanxin, and second, they did not have the ability to control the wind and rain crossing like Ning Shu, so they never found the holy lake in this mountain.

It stands to reason that it should be happy to find such a desolate inheritance, and there are not many people competing for it, and if you put it on others, you may have already jumped up excitedly.

But Ning Shu and Xu Yuanxin are not ordinary people, so that in the face of such a holy lake, the two of them are still very calm, because they both know that as long as they don't catch what is inside, then this inheritance cannot be regarded as their own.

Walking around the lake, I found nothing except to confirm that there was indeed something here, as well as the origin of the inheritance.

Even if I feel like I have to start with Starlight, I don't have a clue.

According to the scriptures, this is the sacred lake of the Gonggong clan, and all the clan sacrifices are placed here, so it is no wonder that this place is different from other places.

It is shocking to be able to be affected by any factors, and there is a mysterious starry sky above it.

Ning Shu squatted down, brushed the lake with his hand, felt it for a while, and said, "There is the breath of formation in the water." ”

"Formation?" Xu Yuanxin saw a white plum blossom appear in his hand, and then threw it into the lake.

The moment the plum blossom touches the surface of the lake, it melts like snowflakes, and the starry sky reflected in the entire lake changes dramatically.

The starlight flew quickly, and then all converged in the center of the lake, like a flower blooming on the water.

Runes covering the entire lake have been activated.

Ning Shu looked at this simple action, but it achieved such an amazing effect, originally he also considered how to find this formation pattern from various angles, and found the center of the formation, but after a lot of deduction, he found that it was very difficult to achieve this degree with his own ability, in addition to the cultivation restrictions, there were strict requirements for the depth of research in the formation.

And he majored in kendo, unlike those peerless geniuses who were passed down by word of mouth, and he was indeed a little weak in other aspects.

Regarding things like formations, Ning Shu only has the ability to see, but not the ability to crack them, just like the people who are watching when the butcher opens and opens, they only have the ability to eat but not the ability to slaughter.

Therefore, whether it was the Tianya View or the formations he encountered when he climbed to the top of the Meditation Tower, most of them could only be passed by relying on the experience he had accumulated before and the sword in his hand, and he could only be helpless with a profound formation like the Holy Lake in front of him.

Ning Shu looked at Xu Yuanxin, who was standing on the surface of the lake, with a relaxed expression on his face, and he didn't care about his methods at all, and after a while, two words popped out:

"Awesome. ”

Xu Yuanxin frowned when he heard this somewhat vulgar compliment.

The fish in the lake calmed down after a moment of panic, and they looked at the flower that bloomed in the middle of the lake, and then at the two people standing on the shore, and then quickly swam away.

"It takes time. Xu Yuanxin said after observing for a while.

Ning Shu understood what she meant, this high-level formation that covered the entire lake would take a certain amount of time to open.

"Probably not just these days, right?"

The reason for asking this is because of those traditional routine stories, the male protagonist in the story will always have all kinds of adventures, for example, some once-in-a-millennium things happen to be caught up by the male protagonist, or if the male protagonist encounters any trouble, there will always be all kinds of destined people to help.

Ning Shu used to read those stories, and always felt that everything was too coincidental, how could there be so many good things that happened to be caught up by the male protagonist, as if all the chances in the world existed for the male protagonist, it was too exaggerated.

These clichéd storylines were overturned one by one after Ning Shu himself embarked on his cultivation.

First of all, he is not like Yuan Youtao and Li Wanqing who can open the perceptual world by casually experiencing one thing, and secondly, he has no chance to open his own perceptual world, otherwise why would he not be able to cultivate when he was in Ping'an City.

Of course, walking from the edge of life and death and sitting for seven days to find a way is not a good opportunity in his opinion.

Moreover, the so-called immortal fate like Luyang Guanyue, even if he gritted his teeth and walked up, there was still Lu Xing, who was more in line with him, moving forward, and he just snatched a little bit from it with the help of fifty strings.

So much so that he finally got something, and he had to face all kinds of pursuits.

So Ning Shu never believed in this aspect of luck.

Xu Yuanxin heard Ning Shu ask like this, shook his head and said, "Of course not in the near future. ”

"According to my calculations, it will take at least another ten years for this formation to be opened. ”

Ten years, for mortals, there can be several decades in a lifetime, even for a cultivator like Ning Shu, it is impossible to spend ten years here.

What's more, in this world, immortality is long gone.

"I can't live here for ten years, can we?" Ning Shu said with a sigh as he looked at the sky.

Because there is no good way, when Ning Shu was thinking about life and chance, Xu Yuanxin looked at the twinkling stars in the sky, and remembered the idle books he often read when he sat by the lake bathing in the starlight when he was in the mountain space behind the Yuxu Palace, which also recorded the description of young boys and girls watching the stars side by side.

She was looking forward to such a warm picture, and suddenly heard what Ning Shu said about living, her heartbeat suddenly intensified, and her face flushed with shame.

Live?

What kind of life to live?

And with whom?

I have been living alone in the mountains since I opened my eyes, and I have never been with other people for a long time, even if I sneaked out of the mountain this time, I have never walked side by side with others, and suddenly a teenager said that he wanted to live with himself for ten years......

At this point, for a while, Xu Yuanxin's entire thoughts began to be confused.

And the person who said this didn't seem to realize how much his self-talk touched the girl, but still looked at the lake and muttered to himself.

"Ten years is really too long. ”

"Is there any way to speed up the change of this formation?"

Ning Shu remembered that when he was in Ping'an City, the aunt who sold steamed buns on the street would add something called yeast to the noodles to speed up the change of the noodles, just like a cultivator who could quickly break through a realm after eating some kind of pill.

In his view, things are not static, and some changes should be made to make the original conventions change qualitatively.

"What do you think will happen if I make a sword?"

Ning Shu looked at Xu Yuanxin, who was a little stunned, and stretched out his hand to shake it in front of the girl's eyes.

"Ahh

After Xu Yuanxin saw Ning Shu, his cheeks became even hotter, and he hurriedly lowered his head and asked in a soft voice, "What did you just say?"

In fact, Ning Shu said a lot just now, and even Xu Yuanxin himself was not sure which sentence he wanted to answer from the young man before he asked this sentence.
