Chapter 254 Bottom of the Pool
Gu Shiyi lost his usual playful smile and his expression became serious.

"Although the animals in the forest usually avoid people, you can still hear the roars of the beasts and the cries of the apes. Today we can't hear anything!"

You must know that the five senses of cultivators are sharp, unlike ordinary people who suffer from deafness, blindness, and the range of hearing is also extremely far, especially for a demon cultivator like Gu Shiyi who is physically strong. She is on the top of a mountain, and the whole mountain is full of She could hear every movement and sound. If she said she couldn't hear it, then she really couldn't hear it!

Pu Yanlan frowned when she heard this.

"How could it happen?"

Gu Shiyi shook his head and frowned,

"I don't know either, but it's probably not a good thing!"

The intuition of beasts is much stronger than that of humans. Even if they are not spirits, they can keenly detect problems in their habitat and avoid danger early. Gu Shidao,
"Your fellow junior brothers and sisters have already reported it to the elders when they returned to the sect. I think the sect will send someone to find out what happened!"

Pu Yanlan nodded,
"Perhaps something big has happened. You guys have been walking less in the mountains lately!"

She said this not only to Gu Shiyi, but also to Red Fox and the King. On the contrary, she was the least worried about Gu Shiyi!

The red fox was licking his hair carefully and nodded when he heard this.

"I also feel a little uncomfortable, as if something happened underground, but I'm not good enough, so I really can't tell..."

When it comes to the underground, the king can understand it best, but it is now in a secret realm. The king suddenly told Gu Shiyi two days ago,

"Gu Shiyi, I feel that because of the secret realm, my branch seems to have changed. I have to go in and guard it. I won't come out in the next few days!"

The king's branch was brought out of the mountain by Gu Shiyi. The original branch was made into the old Taoist priest's coffin. The man and the tree became one. The king extracted his essence from the tree. , turned into a small sapling, and now after absorbing a lot of spiritual soil in the secret realm, there have been changes. After the king sensed it, he entered the secret realm and fell asleep, and he could not come out for a while!

Pu Yanlan said,

"It doesn't matter. If the people in the door get the news, they will report it!"

Sure enough, within a few days, Pu Yanlan learned from the head master that there was a change in the underlying veins of the Guiling Mountains.

"The spiritual energy in the earth's veins seems to have been swallowed up by something!"

"Swallow?"

Pu Yanlan said in surprise,

"Master, my disciple has also read some classics. It is recorded in the classics that in ancient times, there were spiritual beasts lurking deep in the earth's veins, guarding the spiritual veins, sleeping for many years, absorbing the spiritual energy of the spiritual veins, and growing older as time passes. After that, the spiritual energy in the spiritual veins was sucked out by it, and it was absorbed in another place. Now when it reaches adulthood, its magical powers are extremely terrifying. However, this kind of spiritual beast has been hunted down by people as early as the prehistoric era. Is it possible now? besides?"

Liu Daodao thought for a while and shook his head.
"Such a spiritual beast is born from the essence of heaven and earth. Although it absorbs spiritual veins, after absorbing it, it will give birth to a kind of spiritual essence, which is a mineral a hundred times more precious than the spiritual veins. It would be great if it is really such a spiritual beast! "

Although such a spiritual beast absorbs spiritual veins, it is the best at guarding the spiritual veins. With it guarding one side, it is more effective than any number of protective formations. Moreover, the speed at which it absorbs spiritual veins is extremely slow, measured in tens of millions of years. Nothing to worry about at all!
"Then...what is that?"

Liu Wendao frowned.

"I don't know, but I will go to check it out in person tomorrow, so you should go with me!"

"Yes!"

Pu Yanlan nodded. Now she has completed the thirteenth level of qi training. If the master hadn't been holding her down, she would have already established the foundation. Since she left the bottom of the giant island, she hasn't had a chance to try her skills. Now it's related to Even if the master doesn't tell her about her sect's affairs, she still has to go check it out.

Even though the head of Tianyi Sect was there, Gu Shiyi couldn't go, so Pu Yanlan took Red Fox to see the master early in the morning. When they entered the hall, they saw that senior brother Sui Feng and second senior brother Qi Maoting were already there. Standing in front of the master's seat, Pu Yanlan was stunned for a moment, then her expression dropped.
"Master!"

Pu Yanlan stepped forward and saluted Liu Wenwen first, and then greeted Sui Feng and Qi Maoting. The two returned the salute. Pu Yanlan asked,

"Master, may we set off?"

Liu Wendao smiled and said,
"Yesterday, your Uncle Sun sent a message, saying that he would go with us..."

Pu Yanlan was stunned.
"Uncle Sun, don't you want to serve in front of Elder Jin Taishang?"

Liu Wendao smiled and said,
"You, Master Sun, have been cultivating in the cave for so many years. You have been meditating for a long time, and since it has something to do with heaven, you came out to take a look!"

He looked at the sky outside and said with a smile,

"I guess he should be here, let's just wait!"

The four of them had been waiting in this room for about a quarter of an hour. Master Sun's escaping light fell outside the cave, and he floated into the cave with a flick of his sleeves. He saw Liu Wendao and said with a smile,
"Sorry, sorry, I kept you waiting for so long!"

Lao asked and smiled,
"Lingshan, I have known your temper for a long time. You were famous for your dillydallying back then, so it doesn't matter!"

Sun Lingshan laughed and said,

"Senior brother, in front of several senior nephews, you must not reveal my old background, and you must save my face!"

Liu Wendao also laughed and said,

"I know it's embarrassing, but I still have to be late!"

Sun Lingshan cupped his hands and said,

"Senior brother, I was wrong. How about asking me to be a pioneer in exploring the path this time to make up for the mistake?" Liu Wendao nodded.
"Okay, I guess you're wise!"

The two of them started joking as soon as they met, which showed that the friendship between the same disciples was indeed deep. The three juniors could only laugh and listen. Now the elder drove the Dunguang and led the three of them out of the Jinyuan Cave, but they went to the cave. Go in the direction of Mingyue Lake.

When the escaping light came down from Mingyue Lake, Sun Lingshan released his spiritual consciousness to search around, and said to Liu Wendao,

"Brother, do you remember this pool? We once caught four-legged fish in this pool. In the blink of an eye, so many years have passed. I am afraid that the fish in this pool have reproduced for many generations. !”

Liu Wendao was also reminded of past events by him and smiled,
"At that time, there were dozens of brothers and sisters when we first entered. Most of them were at the third or fourth level of Qi training. They often played around in the Guiling Mountains. Although they were often scolded by the master, they were very happy..."

After talking about this point, he sighed again,
"Only a few hundred years have passed, and my fellow disciples have had different circumstances. Some have gone down the mountain and returned to the world. They have passed away after having children. Some have died in battles with others, or some have died young without the opportunity to practice. None, few of our peers can meet like us..."

At this time, Sun Lingshan had already swept the pond water with his spiritual consciousness, and smiled when he heard the words,

"Life is like this. Getting together and leaving is like a feast. Some people come in a hurry, some leave halfway, and some people stay until the end. It doesn't matter... As long as everyone gets together, it is fate. There will be wine and joy. Huan, it’s not in vain to come to this world!”

Liu Wendao laughed loudly after hearing this.
"Junior brother, you are always more free and easy-going than me, that's why you practice with the Supreme Elder, but it's because your brother is trapped in worldly affairs that you can't extricate yourself!"

After a pause, he asked again,
"Junior brother, did you see the clues?"

Sun Lingshan nodded,
"There is indeed something different here. The spiritual energy was so full that the four-legged fish in the pond couldn't bear the explosion of spiritual energy, so it exploded and died..."

He asked Liu again,
"Senior brother, I remember that in the Guiling Mountains, the Mingyue Pond is directly connected to the underground spiritual veins. Could it be that something happened to the spiritual veins?"

Liu asked,
"It is indeed possible. It seems that this time we really have to rely on my junior brother's methods to take us down to have a look!"

Sun Lingshan laughed and fired a magic spell. Pu Yanlan saw that the water in front of him, which was originally as calm as a mirror, seemed to have been suddenly cut open with a knife. It actually split to the left and right, revealing a place in the middle that could allow one person to pass through. The gap comes.

Sun Lingshan's move was a top-level performance of the Water Avoidance Art. Several juniors looked at it with shocked expressions, and Pu Yanlan even exclaimed,

"Uncle Sun is so awesome!"

It is natural for monks with advanced cultivation to know brilliant spells, but being able to use an ordinary spell to the highest level is also a manifestation of advanced cultivation. Everyone in Tianyi Sect knows how to avoid water, which may make Master Sun do this There are not many people who can do it casually and easily!
Liu Wendao smiled and said,
"Your uncle Sun has the water spirit root. When he was young, he could master this technique at a glance. It took us five days at most to learn it and one or two days at least to understand it!"

Sun Lingshan smiled and said,
"It's just that the five elements belong to different zodiac signs. Brother, why didn't you tell me about the properties of your golden spirit root? When you were playing in the village at a young age before you started, you could make the big bell in the temple ring non-stop?"

Lao asked and laughed after hearing this.
"It happened so many years ago, but you brought it up and talked about it!"

Sun Lingshan smiled and said,
"It doesn't matter if you say it, things still need to be done, let's go in!"

The leader immediately flew into the gap. Behind him was Liu Wendao, followed by Sui Feng and Qi Maoting, and finally Pu Yanlan who was holding the red fox. As soon as they entered the bottom of the pool, they were in Pu Yanlan's arms. The red fox moved uneasily, straightened up, raised his ears, and looked around. Sun Lingshan, who was walking in front, didn't look back, so he smiled and said,
"The demon pet raised by my niece is still somewhat spiritual. If you have time to come to my uncle, I will give you a bottle of spiritual water. You can give it three drops of it every day. In a few years, it will be able to transform!"

Things like spiritual water cannot be made by refining medicine, but a drop of spiritual liquid squeezed out from the seabed spiritual stone after millions of years of water pressure at the bottom of the deep sea, often a huge spiritual stone vein. It only produces a small bucket of water. People who eat this water can at most increase their spiritual power. But if it is given to monsters and beasts, it can help them to become spiritually enlightened and transform into other forms as soon as possible.

The red fox didn't know the origin of the spirit water, but he was very happy when he heard that it could help him transform. He barked in Pu Yanlan's arms and waggled his big tail like a dog. Sun Lingshan laughed loudly. Pu Yanlan had no choice but to reassure her,

"Calm down and wait until the things here are over before we talk about anything else!"

The red fox also knew the importance and stopped barking immediately. He just lay obediently in Pu Yanlan's arms and looked around with a pair of black eyes.

This Mingyue Lake is a deep crater carved out by mountain streams over the years. It took unknown how many years for the current to penetrate the bottom of the pool and create a round hole about one foot in diameter.

At this time, the round hole was exposed because the pool water above was separated. For just a moment, there were wisps of white mist mixed with the cold air from the ground in the entrance of the hole, rising up and hitting people's faces. Sun Lingshan saw and Liu Wendao looked at each other and said,
"There is indeed something strange happening down there!"

The next few juniors were very surprised when they saw this. When Sui Feng saw this, he asked:

"Uncle, Master, these are wisps of spiritual energy. In this Turtle Spirit Mountain Range, isn't it normal for spiritual energy to emerge from the earth's veins? Why do you two think there is something strange happening down there?"

The two looked at each other after hearing this, and Liu Wendao explained his disciple's doubts,
"This Mingyue Lake was hit by water flow many years ago, forming a floor drain. The water from the pool has been flowing down from the top for many years. This hole pours the water into the lower layer, so the water from Mingyue Lake can remain unchanged for thousands of years. It has never dried up and never overflowed. After years of erosion of the spiritual veins in the ground, the spiritual energy emitted on the surface has long been washed away by the water flow and flowed into the ground, or was taken to other places and transpired to the surface. , nourishing the land and the vegetation and beasts that live on it..."

Liu asked after a pause,
"Even if the water flow washed away the surface of the spiritual stone and took away the spiritual energy, then why is this spiritual energy emitted now?"

He was asking the three disciples. They had thoughtful expressions on their faces. Sui Feng said,

"Is it because there is no water flowing down there anymore?"

But... this is not right. There is not much water in Mingyue Lake. I think it still flows down the hole below. Where did the water go?
Sun Lingshan laughed and said,

"We'll find out when we go down and take a look!"

After saying that, Sun Lingshan disappeared into the cave in a flash, but Liu Wenwen had his hands behind his back and calmly watched his junior disciple disappear. Not long after, a voice came up,

"Brother, come down and take a look!"

Liu Wendao heard something strange in his voice, and disappeared in a flash. The three disciples looked at each other, Sui Feng smiled and said to his junior brother and sister,

"Junior Brother Qi and Junior Sister Pu, let's go down too!"

The two nodded and watched him go down first, and then they filed in. Pu Yanlan hugged the red fox and jumped out last...

It is said that it is pitch dark underground and nothing can be seen. However, for cultivators, the darkness is no obstacle. Looking at this place is like daylight. I can only see that due to the erosion of water for many years, there has long been another under the pond. Another huge cave was washed away. After millions of years, the water flow will eventually open up the upper and lower caves, turning Mingyue Lake into a deeper mountain pool.

There is no water in the lower pool, although the sound of water flowing can still be heard, and the ground is as wet as the upper level, indicating that it was once filled with water, but now it is a huge hole. , the water is gone!
