Chapter 0763: Underwater White Tiger Hall
The five of them entered the water one after another, and each quickly sank to the bottom of the sea.
The distance of 30,000 zhang is deep enough for most sea areas, and if you change to mortals, you are afraid that you will not be able to continue if you don't dive much. However, this distance, for immortal cultivators, is also a matter of about an hour.
This sea area is really different from other sea areas, I thought that it would be pitch black after diving, but I didn't expect that there was always light shining through the deep sea below.
After about a thousand zhang of diving, the surroundings were brighter than above, and Xu Bansheng was diving with all his strength while feeling the mana fluctuations around him, and it was obvious that he had entered the range of a formation.
In the formation, the aura was obviously different from the sea water above, and even if there were no water beads in his mouth, the speed of swimming here was far beyond the limit that Xu Bansheng could reach before.
Obviously, this formation has the effect of reducing resistance, which is undoubtedly a great convenience for ordinary casual cultivation.
In the array, there are many nodes floating, and on each node there is a night pearl that constantly shines, intertwining a bright underwater depth, although it is not as bright as the land in the sky, it is enough for any scattered cultivator to discern the direction.
This formation, of course, will not be the scattered cultivation arrangement of those who freely collected the Linghan Spring in the past, it is definitely from Lu Hanyu's handwriting, even if it is Xu Bansheng, he has to admit that this person is indeed a character, just the formations all over here show that this person has a broad mind.
Yes. This is not a formation, no matter how powerful the formation division is, it is impossible to set up a formation that stretches for hundreds of miles and is nearly 30,000 zhang deep. Here, it is made up of countless formations, and there is a slight gap between the formations, but it is very well grasped, neither allowing these formations to clash with each other, but also not too far apart, and always maintaining the most reasonable distance.
However, this also made Xu Bansheng a little uncomfortable. Where there is a formation, the dive is extremely fast, and you can get out of the formation. Before entering the next formation, the sea water returned to its normal resistance, and the speed of the dive suddenly slowed down a lot. It's like a car, driving on the highway. But there are constantly low roadblocks on the highway. These barriers do not stop the vehicle from moving forward, but they can effectively make it feel bumpy and slow it down for a while.
When he dive to about 10,000 zhang, Xu Bansheng was completely accustomed to this rhythm, and effectively used the formation to increase his diving speed by a few points.
I thought it would take more than an hour to dive to the 30,000-zhang pseudo-bottom, but in fact, it only took about two-thirds of the time for Xu Bansheng's feet to step on the quicksand above the pseudo-bottom.
The quicksand under your feet is about half a meter deep. And as the sea shakes, the quicksand also flows, which makes it possible to stand still. The legs will soon be covered by quicksand up to the knees, which greatly affects mobility.
Xu Bansheng consciously stayed for a moment, let the quicksand completely overflow his knees, and felt the taste of being buried in his legs by quicksand. It's not that he's playing with his heart, it's that he wants to know, once he gets his legs trapped in quicksand. How much his actions will be affected depends on how he flees when he is pursued.
The trench is right in front of you. Xu Bansheng was obviously the first to reach the bottom of the sea, and his understanding of the formation allowed him to make more effective use of the countless formations. Even in the deep sea, Xu Bansheng could still see the figures of other people, he was silent until he saw that Pan Dongliu and the other four people all arrived at the bottom of the sea, and quickly swam in the direction of the trench, and the figure completely disappeared into the trench, Xu Bansheng took out a bottle without hurry, took a deep breath of air, kept himself in the most perfect state, and then slowly swam towards the trench.
When he arrived at the edge of the trench, Xu Bansheng did not rush forward, but leaned over and saw that the trench was brighter than here, obviously for the convenience of collecting the Linghan Spring.
Even standing on the edge of the trench, Xu Bansheng could feel the chill coming from the forest in the trench.
Obviously, although almost all of the Linghan Springs have been collected, there will always be some loss and dissipation, and hundreds of thousands of years have already made the sea water in the trench much warmer than in other places.
Moreover, Xu Bansheng could even feel that there were faint aura fluctuations in the sea water in the trench, and it was not thinner than the aura on land. This is probably also the result of the continuous loss of the Linghan Spring in the seawater, and obviously Lu Hanyu also noticed this, he consciously laid a formation on the mouth of the trench to lock the aura, even if the aura will escape into the sea water after the loss of the Linghan Spring, but he also wants to let these auras remain in the trench, because only in the trench is his kingdom, and the aura in the seawater can obviously also become a resource for immortal cultivators to cultivate.
"It's really not a waste at all, Lu Hanyu, it's a pity that you are already dead, otherwise, if I can talk to you, it will be of great benefit. Xu Bansheng sighed in his heart, this Lu Hanyu was already a wise and close demon in his heart.
took out an invisibility talisman, put it on the flesh for half a lifetime, and slowly injected a wisp of true qi, which stimulated the effect of the invisibility talisman, and then he cautiously slowly dived down along the edge of the trench.
However, after diving for dozens of zhang, Xu Bansheng felt more and more the chill around him, and at the extreme of his eyesight, he could already vaguely see that on the cliffs on both sides of the trench, some liquids different from seawater were slowly flowing out, and as soon as those liquids were sprayed out, there would be scattered cultivators who would immediately go over to collect them, and there was no doubt that this was where the spring of the Linghan Spring was located.
After diving for more than a thousand zhang, it can already be clearly seen that there are scattered corrections collecting the Linghan Spring around, and Xu Bansheng has always maintained an extremely slow speed to dive slowly, trying not to stir up the surrounding seawater, so as not to be discovered by others.
The cultivators were dressed in rags and had pale skin, but they were looking around with a high degree of mental concentration, for fear of missing even a trace of the spiritual cold spring.
In the process of Xu Bansheng's slow dive, the closest casual cultivation to him, there were less than a hundred zhang between them, and it was obvious that the invisibility talisman had exerted its ultimate effect. Otherwise, someone should have discovered his existence a long time ago.
More than 300 zhang below, two people sat facing each other in the middle of the sea. They were obviously on top of a knot, and they sat steadily, with a small wooden table between them. Xu Bansheng's angle just happened to be able to see clearly, on the wooden table, there were two side dishes and a pot of wine.
Hardly even think about it, these two are the guardians.
Even though they are more than 300 zhang apart. Xu Bansheng could already feel the mana fluctuations from the two people's bodies, which were extremely slight. But he couldn't escape the induction of Xu Bansheng.
With the two of them as the center of the circle, the mana slowly stretched out in all directions, like spheres one by one, constantly spreading around.
Xu Bansheng is not in a hurry. Just observing the two men carefully, one of them suddenly stood up, apparently saying something, and the other waved his hand impatiently, and the man kicked his legs and swam diagonally upward.
In the process of swimming, there was already a long whip in his hand, and he shook it gently, and he could hear the long whip making a crisp sound in the sea water for half his life.
Slowly move your gaze. Xu Bansheng looked in the direction where the man swam, and he saw a familiar figure, which turned out to be a knife maniac.
The knife maniac also clearly sensed that someone was swimming towards him. He immediately stopped moving, but maintained a standing position in the water, and saw that the man with the whip was approaching, and hurriedly surrendered his hand, and the man obviously saw that the knife maniac was not his subordinate cultivator, so he slowed down. Instead of whipping it with his head, he held the tip of his braid in his left hand. Stopped about thirty feet in front of the knife maniac.
Xu Bansheng clearly saw that the water was suddenly surging in front of the man, and the transparency increased several times in an instant, Xu Bansheng knew that it was the art of separating water, and the man had already separated a channel between him and the knife maniac, probably to facilitate the communication between the two.
But on Xu Bansheng's side, he couldn't hear the conversation between the two, but he saw the man raise the long whip in his hand, and the braid was tightly buckled.
The two exchanged a few words, and then the man slowly put down the long whip in his hand, coiled the whip body, and carried it in his right hand.
Then the man turned and sent a message to the other person below, who waved his hand impatiently, and the man swam towards the knife, and the two of them swam deeper to the bottom of the sea together.
Xu Bansheng did not hesitate, and followed closely behind the two, always maintaining a distance of more than 100 zhang, hanging from each other.
After swimming thousands of feet, a building appeared on the cliff next to it. The building is like hanging on a cliff, with carved beams and painted buildings, magnificent courtyards, and gold plaques hanging high, which are completely indistinguishable from the buildings on land. As the sea ripples, the building seems to change shape, slightly distorted, and looks unreal, as if it were a projection.
Xu Bansheng looked at it with empty eyes, and saw the golden plaque on the courtyard of the building, with the words "White Tiger Hall" written on it.
The man came to the front of the hall with a knife maniac, and also put away the long whip in his hand, and tidied up his clothes a little, and then walked towards the top of the steps with the knife maniac.
Obviously, after going up the stairs, it is no longer in the water, and the whole building is completely open to water, which shows the magnitude of his work.
After the two of them entered the White Tiger Hall, Xu Bansheng continued to dive, swam around the building for half a circle, and made sure that only the gate was guarded by two people, so he slowly lowered his body and tried to step on the steps on his toes.
Where the toes fell, I really felt that the pressure was completely gone, but when the toes poked out, it obviously caused the mana fluctuations around the building, and the two immortal cultivators in armor guarding behind the door immediately looked towards the place where Xu Bansheng was standing, and the halberd in his hand also pointed at Xu Bansheng.
It's just that the two obviously didn't see Xu Bansheng, they glanced at each other with a little suspicion, muttered something in their mouths, and slowly put down the halberd in their hands.
Just stood quietly for a while, Xu Bansheng was not in a hurry to go in, and soon he saw the person before walking out with a knife maniac.
At this time, the knife maniac had already changed his clothes, which were close to his body, but it was a bit like a shark suit swimsuit on the earth, outlining the sturdy body of the knife maniac.
The man was still talking to the knife maniac about something, the knife maniac just kept nodding, and then the man pointed in a certain direction, probably indicating where the knife maniac should go, and he himself stomped his foot, turned around and gestured to the two gatekeepers, and slammed into the formation.
Xu Bansheng smiled slightly, what he was waiting for was this opportunity, only when that person could come into contact with the formation, Xu Bansheng obviously felt the mana fluctuation of the formation, he also crashed into it.
I saw that the knife maniac was looking around, and the expression on his face showed his inner apprehension, and neither he nor the two gatekeepers found the existence of Xu Bansheng. (To be continued) 2k reading network
