The Path to Immortality

Fang Ping was washed by the huge waves before and was already swept into a position close to the bottom of the river. Now he only dived more than ten feet and gradually saw the source of the light.

It was a water curtain formed by magic power!

Behind the water curtain... there seemed to be a huge cave entrance?

"Could it be the water house of the two black-scaled dragons?"

Fang Ping pondered for a moment and had a guess in his mind.

Comparing the shape and size, it seemed that it could only be the cave of the black-scaled dragon.

It is unlikely that there are other monsters of the same size nearby!

"Oh no, I was accidentally swept to the vicinity of the black-scaled dragon's nest..."

Fang Ping's first reaction was to run quickly.

If he was a little slower or unlucky, he would bump into the returning black-scaled dragon, and he would be miserable.

But he just swam one step and suddenly stopped.

Will there be any good things in the water house of the two black-scaled dragons?

Speaking of which, the previous black-scaled dragon at the eighth level of Qi training did not roar for help until it was severely injured, and attracted the second black-scaled dragon.

If the water palace was not extremely important and could not be easily left, why didn't the black-scaled dragon ask for help earlier?

Moreover, Fang Ping immediately thought of another strange thing.

Although the Canglan River is not a place like the secular place in Liang State where the spiritual energy is meager and difficult to practice, it is definitely not a place with abundant spiritual energy.

It is already rare to attract a black-scaled dragon at the eighth level of Qi training to be active here.

Why can it attract a second one of its kind with strength close to the tenth level of Qi training?

Thinking of this, Fang Ping had a bold idea in his mind.

Go down and take a look!

Liu Wuchen and other senior brothers, at least there are more than ten people, and they fled separately. The second black-scaled dragon at the tenth level of Qi training is indeed strong, but it has not established a foundation after all. It will take some time to chase them down, right?

As for the fact that there is a third black-scaled dragon hidden in the water palace besides the pair of black-scaled dragons that are probably male and female...

No matter how you think about it, the probability is too low!

After hesitating for a moment, Fang Ping made up his mind, urged his magic power, and swam to the water palace at the bottom of the river at full speed.

Soon, he came to the water curtain.

Fang Ping didn't know much about formations, but he could still see at a glance that the neatly-formed water curtain formation in front of him was definitely not a spell that could be arranged by monsters, but a formation arranged by human cultivators.

However, this formation itself was arranged rather casually, and it was old and lacked maintenance, causing the water curtain to almost collapse.

In addition to isolating the river water, it has basically lost its protective effect.

The cultivator who arranged the formation at the beginning may have died or left here.

But even so, it is still running, blocking Fang Ping who was trying to sneak in outside the water palace!

"Perhaps this water palace originally belonged to a human cultivator, but was later occupied by these two black-scaled dragons?"

While secretly guessing, Fang Ping took out the Tianyang Sword, urged his magic power, and slashed at the water curtain.

The magic power of the Five Elements Sutra had just been added to the Tianyang Sword, and the scorching temperature of the magic sword itself made the nearby river water boil.

However, Fang Ping's full-strength attack on the water curtain only made the water curtain shake slightly.

Obviously, even a formation that was almost collapsed was not something that a cultivator of the fourth level of Qi training like him could easily break.

Fang Ping, who was a little unwilling, condensed the Fiery Sun True Fire, compressed it to the extreme at this stage, and blasted at the water curtain again!

The blazing flame exploded violently, causing the water curtain to tremble violently.

"There's a way!"

Fang Ping was in high spirits, urged the Fiery Sun True Fire, and launched six or seven attacks in succession. Assisted by the attack of the Tianyang Sword, all concentrated on one point in order to achieve the effect of breaking the surface with a point.

"Hua La~"

Under his continuous attacks, the water curtain formation, which was already on the verge of breaking, made a slight cracking sound, and then shattered with a loud bang.

Along with the sound of gurgling water, the river water that was boiled by the true fire poured back through the entrance of the water palace.

Fang Ping himself was pushed by the rapid backflow of water and rushed into the depths of the water palace involuntarily.

"Success!"

Fang Ping had no time to be happy. While controlling the water-avoiding talisman, he tried his best to stabilize his body in the turbulent river water, and quickly observed the situation in the water palace.

The cave of the black-scaled dragon was very large, and the interior was extremely empty. There was only one passage for the black-scaled dragon to enter and exit. On the top and sides of the passage, there were several treasures such as night pearls randomly inlaid.

If one was pried off and taken to the secular dynasty, it would definitely be a priceless treasure.

Unfortunately, for cultivators, they were no different from ordinary stones.

Soon, Fang Ping followed the backflow of the river water and was washed all the way to the center of the water palace.

This place is very open, and the main part is a natural stone house with a radius of hundreds of meters. It seems to be the place where the two black-scaled dragons live and eat.

The remains of swallowed monsters and even fish and crabs in the river can be seen everywhere on the ground nearby.

Fang Ping quickly scanned and even saw the remains of suspected human monks and broken pieces of magic tools. It is estimated that the monks passing by Canglan River were too unlucky and happened to be hit by the black-scaled dragons and regarded as snacks.

In addition, one of the resting places of the black-scaled dragons was built into a nest-like shape with reefs, corals and other materials, in which two huge black-scaled dragon eggs lay quietly!

Even the backflow of river water only impacted them and shook them continuously, without any substantial impact.

"Black-scaled dragon eggs!"

Fang Ping's eyes lit up.

This kind of dragon-like monster has the potential to become a foundation-building monster. The value of two eggs added together may not be less than the white-feathered spiritual crane that the granddaughter of the inner sect elder Wang got!

If the eggs can be stolen, they can definitely be sold at a high price!

But his excitement only lasted for a moment, and then turned into frustration again.

Monster eggs are living things, and must be taken away with a special spirit beast bag. Otherwise, even if they are forced into a storage bag, they can only be used to make scrambled eggs.

Fang Ping can't predict the future, so naturally he didn't prepare a spirit beast bag in advance.

As for moving them away by manpower... Such a big black-scaled dragon egg might be caught up by the furious black-scaled dragon before it swims ashore, and its ashes will be scattered!

"What a pity, I went deep into the treasure mountain, but I can only return empty-handed!"

Fang Ping could only give up with regret.

Is there no other valuable items in the water palace?

Just as he looked around, Fang Ping suddenly noticed that there seemed to be a specially opened stone chamber in the darkness at the right end of the square stone palace.

From the direction of the stone chamber, pure spiritual energy came faintly, as if there was another world.

Fang Ping immediately controlled the bubbles of the water-avoiding talisman and swam over quickly.

As soon as he entered the stone chamber from the half-open stone door, he felt the rich water spiritual energy.

If there were cultivators who specialized in water-based skills, the effect of practicing here would probably be no less than being near a first-level spiritual vein!

Fang Ping was surprised to find that directly below the stone chamber, there was a deep crack at the bottom of the river, which actually bred a natural spiritual spring!

It was the spiritual energy emitted by this spiritual spring that made the stone chamber so rich in spiritual energy.
