Immortality: Start Cultivating Immortality From Pingshan Mountain

Chapter 178 The mist, moonlight, and panic in Jiao Palace

“What, entering the lake and entering the water house?”

“Absolutely not, Brother Chen. As the saying goes, a gentleman does not stand behind a dangerous wall. If the old dragon goes back on his promise, it will be difficult to escape once he enters his lair.”

“That’s it, Chen Baotou, monsters are cunning by nature, and they have no respect for promises and honesty. It is unwise to put yourself in danger.”

“Shopkeeper, I also think what Yang Kuaishou and the old foreigner brothers said is reasonable, and if you must go, please be sure to take Kunlun with you.”

“Also, Brother Chen, this lake is at least a hundred meters deep. No matter how good the water quality is, people would not dare to enter the water lightly. This matter is too dangerous. According to Yang, it is better to wait quietly on the mountain.”

 In front of the broken monument on Yinghai Mountain.

Chen Yulou briefly explained his plan.

Of course, the agreement with Zhou Jiao was omitted, and it was only said that the old Jiao invited him to enter the Xiashui Mansion of Fuxian Lake.

 Unexpectedly, it immediately attracted a lot of opposition.

Even Kunlun, who had always been obedient to his orders, looked unacceptable.

Yuan Hong and Kunlun are both overlords in the forest.

Partridge Whistle didn’t try to persuade him, so he could only nod his head and agree.

 Chen Yulou waved his hand, indicating that he didn't need to worry.

 Now that the old dragon is asking for help from him, it is like he has his lifeline in his hands.

  “…that’s good too.”

 But the clues can actually be seen from Lao Jiao's actions.

 There seems to be no winner.

 Unless it can give up the temptation of transforming into a dragon.

 But there is a strong sense of confidence in his words.

"But…"

 Otherwise, after entering the water, you will never dare to do anything easily.

"this…"

 Afraid, alert, vigilant.

Whether it is Jiaolong Water Mansion or the ancient city in the lake, he wants to see it.

Among the group of people, although he has good water skills, he is not sure about diving into a large lake of 100 meters.

 That is to be killed for treasure.

　　Seems to be discussing.

If it were the earth, dragon, and sea of ​​fire, it would actually be like "fish can leap in the sea, and birds can fly in the sky."

Facing the worried faces.

 A previous confrontation.

I saw him talking about this.

"Don't worry, Chen will never make dangerous moves. Since he agreed, he is absolutely sure."

 Just look at those fishermen.

 But from the frowning brows, it can be seen that he is still filled with surprise and doubt in his heart at this moment.

 At the port before.

If someone else were to hold the dragon slough today, the outcome would have been doomed from the moment they appeared on the lake, let alone the conditions.

 Luofu is a born phoenix.

“There’s no need for it, Brother Dao, if there is really danger, Chen is confident that he can still escape with all his strength.”

“Chen, let’s go first, and we’ll be back in half an hour at most, how about that?”

 These factors are all due to his intimidating strength.

What's more, after merging with the water-dividing beads, Chen Yulou's ability to control the water is no weaker than that of the big fish in the lake. Even if he does it underwater, he will not look down upon it at all.

After much thought, he couldn't think of a better way.

Partridge Whistle frowned.

But Chen Yulou had made up his mind, and this trip into the water was not entirely a temporary decision.

 Old foreigners are even more naturally afraid of water.

“Okay, Brother Dao, the old dragon is still waiting for you.”

Partridge Whistle also wants to say something.

 Chen Yulou just shook his head and smiled.

In recent years, due to constant storms and waves on the lake, they would rather farm than fish in the lake.

 The main reason is that after knowing each other for so long, Chen Yulou has shown many methods, such as collecting qi, strengthening blood, internal refining, and swordsmanship, but he knows nothing about the nature of water.

As for the remaining two men, their strength is too low. Let alone escorting the plundering formation, I am afraid that Chen Yulou will have to take care of them.

 For people who rely on water all year round, can we say that their water quality is not good?

If they are like this, what about others?

 “Then please wait a moment.”

 Chen Yulou clasped his fists, turned around and left.

However, as soon as he took a few steps, he suddenly turned around, looked back at the honest but extremely determined face, and suddenly showed helplessness, "Go back, the shopkeeper is not gone forever."

 Kunlun has always been obedient.

 At this moment, he shook his head.

 In his heart, his life had been sold to him since the time when the shopkeeper brought him back from Yandang Mountain.

Not to mention, the fact that I can speak and read is all due to the gift of the shopkeeper.

Now, the shopkeeper is going to take risks, how can I ignore it?

 “Be obedient.”

 Chen Yulou knows his character better than anyone else.

This guy seems gentle, but in fact he is the most stubborn. Once he decides something, he will not be able to pull back ten cows.

"Half an hour, once the time limit has passed, the shopkeeper will not stop you, whether entering the water or the lake."

 Chen Yulou raised a finger.

 Seriously.

"real?"

Kunlun's eyes finally flashed with a hint of wavering.

“Of course, shopkeeper, when have I ever lied to you?”

 “Once a word is spoken, it is hard to follow it!”

 “Okay, then half an hour.”

Seeing that he finally stopped, Chen Yulou couldn't help but secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Being able to persuade him to stop was really not something that ordinary people could do.

 He raised his head and glanced into the distance.

The old Jiao standing on the tide was obviously a little impatient. Although he never spoke, the water in the lake below him seemed to be boiling, with turbulent ups and downs.

 No further delay.

 Chen Yulou took a deep breath.

Stepping on the blue rock, he jumped out in one step and floated to the big lake like a feather.

　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　‖

 See this scene.

The people on the Yinghai Mountain behind them were tensed up, and even their breathing became stagnant subconsciously.

 “Condensation!”

 At the moment when approaching the lake.

 Chen Yulou softly uttered a word.

In an instant, the undulating lake water beneath him seemed to have solidified. The invisible water gathered into a tangible step and floated lightly on the water platform.

At this moment, the water breeze blew by, making him flaunt his long robe and long sleeves. Coupled with the long sword at his waist, he was exactly the same as the sword fairy mentioned in the novels and storytellers.

 “Treading water?!”

Partridge Whistle’s pupils shrank suddenly.

 Looking in disbelief.

 From Pingshan to Chenjiazhuang and then to Zhelongshan, for several months, we almost lived and ate together. I thought I had learned enough about Chen Yulou.

 Until this moment.

He suddenly realized it.

 Looking at him, it turned out that he was like a flower in the moonlight and mist in the water, which I could never figure out.

 In secular martial arts, there is a saying that walking on water leaves no trace.

 But he knew that it was just using his true energy to forcibly raise his energy and skim across the water.

 Generally speaking, any good light-body kung fu can do it.

  It is just the length of time the water is stagnant.

 But the real treading on water has gone far beyond the scope of martial arts.

 Just like Chen Yulou standing quietly on the lake at this moment.

 The shoes should not be soaked in water, and the water should not touch the body.

 It is said that it is treading on water, but in reality it is treading on empty space.

 “My Lord…”

 Compared to him, the expressions of the people beside him were even more shocked.

“It turns out that the shopkeeper has already become an immortal.”

"Absolutely. Didn't you notice that the old dragon suddenly stopped moving?"

 “O land immortal.”

The two guys who were sent to drive the boat usually lived on the mountain, and there was already a layer of filters between them and Chen Yulou. Seeing him floating above the lake, they almost couldn't help but worship him.

 “Is this the master?”

Yuan Hong, who has never spoken.

 Amber eyes are as clear as fire.

 Looking at the figure on the lake, I was so excited that I couldn't speak.

It knew its master was powerful, as evidenced by the countless demons it killed along the way.

But it really didn’t expect that its master’s cultivation level had reached such a high level that Feng Xu could control the wind and tread water without waves.

 On the contrary, Kunlun is the calmest.

 In his mind, this is what a shopkeeper should be like.

Carrying a big halberd, he walked step by step to the rock outside Yinghai Mountain, sat down cross-legged, and glanced at Luofu on his left shoulder, a flash of determination flashed in his eyes.

 Half an hour.

 This is the promise given to him by the shopkeeper.

Then he will wait here. When half an hour is up, as long as the shopkeeper has not returned, even if it is a sea of ​​swords and fire, he Kunlun will not blink an eye and will follow him to the death!

 “Senior Zhou Jiao, let’s go.”

Chen Yulou raised his eyes and glanced at Chaotou Laojiao.

Hand out his hand calmly.

"good."

Zhou Jiao glanced at him without much surprise in his eyes.

When it defeated its water arrow and water column killing array before, it had already seen how amazing Chen Yulou's power in controlling water was. not to mention.

If you can't even do this, how can you go down to the lake and enter its water house?

 I didn’t see the old dragon doing anything.

　　The tide gathering under the body suddenly dissipated, and it plunged into the lake. The huge figure walked through the lake and headed straight for the cave deep at the bottom of the lake.

Seeing this, Chen Yulou followed without hesitation.

 Once in the water.

 In an instant.

Countless lakes were rushing towards him from all directions, and it seemed as if there was a gust of wind roaring in his ears.

 But the moment of presence.

I saw a flash of green light all over his body.

An invisible aura immediately enveloped him, and the lake water outside him could no longer infect him at all. It lightly passed by his side. This feeling was quite strange, and he couldn't help but feel a sense of surprise.

To know.

 Even when he presented himself to Wang Xuan Palace.

　　When the corpse cave is introduced into the Feng Shui killing array of Qinglong Dunbi, at the most dangerous time, it is just rising from the water in the pool into the sky.

 A few days ago in Longtan, I also used my spiritual consciousness to carry the dragon slough ashore.

 Haven’t actually entered the cave.

Now is the first time to actually enter the water.

As the depth of the dive increased, even though he was protected by spiritual energy, he could clearly feel that the water from all around was getting heavier, squeezing his flesh and bones crazily.

but.

 Cleans the marrow and cuts the bones, strengthens the blood and internally refines it.

His muscles and bones have long been cast like molten iron, making it difficult for ordinary swords to pierce him.

 Ten meters.

 Fifty meters.

 Hundred meters.

The old dragon is worthy of being a great monster in the water. His speed is astonishing and there is no obstacle. Even the further down he goes, the more he returns to the sea like a dragon. Only a faint black shadow can be seen.

 It was already dark under the lake.

 Pitch black as ink.

Looking up, I could barely see a ray of skylight above my head through the mist, but after a few dozen meters, even the scorching sun couldn't reach here.

Chen Yulou could only barely see his surroundings with his pair of green wood spiritual eyes.

 As for the dragon.

It is guided by a ray of spiritual consciousness.

 Just be able to keep up from a distance.

 At this depth underwater, not only has it fallen into darkness, but there are also very few fish encountered.

  It seems that even they are.

 It is also unable to adapt to the environment at the bottom of the lake.

Without paying too much attention, Chen Yulou continued to dive to the bottom of the lake, following Zhou Jiao's breath.

Within a hundred meters, he could go without any hindrance, but once he passed a hundred meters, the water around him surged forward like a sudden collapse of the sky, as if the entire lake was rolling over him.

“This is a good way to train your bones.”

 Feeling amazing pressure.

 Chen Yulou did not retreat, but there was a hint of surprise in his eyes.

 The cleansing of marrow and bones and the external training of skin and flesh that martial arts practitioners pursue can now be achieved almost perfectly.

Although he has experienced several bone cuttings, blood strengthening and internal refining of the five internal organs.

  But there is still a long way to go from the Vajra Iron Bone.

 Now…

  This is a perfect opportunity.

　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　——

 Spit out a breath.

Chen Yulou tried little by little, using the power of the water to strengthen his muscles and bones.

In the skin that was originally as crystal clear as jade, dots of light like stars gradually appeared.

 The momentum of the whole body is also rising.

"Huh?!"

Zhou Jiao seemed to have his way and ignored him.

 In fact, it always stayed behind with a trace of energy and attention, paying attention to every move of Chen Yulou.

 For this person.

To be honest, it is still unwilling to do so.

The masters of the natural species and Fuxian Lake were so grasped by humans.

 It’s just that this person’s strength is truly amazing.

But what he didn't expect was that Chen Yulou was so arrogant that he dared to enter the lake alone.

  After all, it is good that humans are the overlords of the land.

But no matter how strong he is at controlling water, the Water Mansion is not an area he can easily touch.

 So, Zhou Jiao actually had the intention of watching a joke.

 But the strength that Chen Yulou displayed along the way made him become shocked from being unwilling to do so.

 Until this moment.

 Feel the increasingly astonishing breath in the distance, like the bright moon and the scorching sun.

 There is only admiration left in its heart.

 It is as difficult to enter the water as to climb to the sky.

You can also use this to practice.

 This talent is definitely the only one he has seen in his life.

Zhou Jiao never thought of it in Fuxian Lake for more than a thousand years.

 “Senior, why don’t you leave?”

 A moment later.

 A laugh suddenly sounded in my ears.

Zhou Jiao looked up and realized that Chen Yulou had caught up with him at some point.

 The figure is suspended in the water.

He was looking at himself with a smile.

"Coming…"

Facing those eyes, Zhou Jiao always felt like he was being penetrated. He quickly put away the distracting thoughts in his heart, did not dare to delay, turned around and swam straight to the bottom of the lake.

 Not long.

 Under the originally dark water.

There were actually streaks of glittering mist floating in the air.

The area is illuminated so brightly that you can faintly see the cornices, brackets, towers and pavilions.

 Suppress your inner wonder.

 Following behind Lao Jiao, he gets closer step by step.

Chen Yulou then discovered that it was actually a palace at the bottom of a lake. It looked very old. It had been soaked in water for many years, and many places were dilapidated.

 But these do not affect its amazingness at all.

"Empire?"

 Chen Yulou secretly guessed.

Zhou Jiao alone would definitely not be able to build such a magnificent palace.

And the genus of dragon has the nature of collecting treasures.

Then there is only one kind.

This is where it was moved back and rebuilt bit by bit from the ancient city that sank into the lake.

Passing through the courtyard, sure enough, totem marks from the ancient Dian Kingdom can be seen everywhere. As for the starry mist he saw earlier, they were beads inlaid around the dome.

 Blooming brilliance on its own in the water.

 A cursory scan.

 At least there are nearly a hundred.

Mingyue Pearl!

Chen Yulou has been immersed in Daodouxing for many years, and he recognized it at a glance. It was not the legendary Suizhu or Luminescent Pearl, but a luminous stone that could also illuminate.

 The ancients polished it into the shape of beads.

  Used to replace the ever-burning lamp.

 It’s just that even he didn’t see much.

I don’t know where Zhou Jiao found it.

 “Sir, follow me.”

 Perceiving the wonder in his expression, Zhou Jiao couldn't help but feel very satisfied.

　　One hundred thousand marshes in southern Yunnan.

There are countless dragons.

But it dares to say that there is no water palace that can compare with its Jiao Palace.

Even if it is a real dragon living in the sea, I am afraid it is nothing more than this.

"good."

 Chen Yulou nodded.

Walking through the ancient palace with hands behind his hands, water droplets would rise from time to time as people and dragons moved around. It looked very strange, as if he was walking in a dragon palace.

 Waiting through the front hall and atrium.

 As soon as you enter the depths of the temple.

From afar, Chen Yulou saw a magnificent palace appearing in his sight.

Countless gold, silver, bronze, porcelain and jade, piled up randomly in all directions like sand and gravel.

 And in the deepest part of the palace.

There is a stone platform made of sapphire.

The middle of the stone platform was deeply sunken, and a shallow hole as big as the mouth of a bowl was dug out. A bright moon bead was placed there, and its brilliance shone brightly, illuminating every detail around it.

　　Under the mist and moonlight.

 A long whip wrapped in gold threads is suspended in the lake.

 “Hit the ghost with a whip?!”
