Chapter 201 Tongtian Lake


Chapter 201 Tongtian Lake

The bright moon hangs high in the sky, and the bright moonlight makes the ground soft. Even ordinary mortals can pass without hindrance under the moonlight with a pair of naked eyes. At this time, thousands of people gathered at the bank of Tongtian Lake, each watching the vast and boundless Tongtian Lake disappear eastward under the pull of heaven and earth.

Large waves are heading eastward, and the water level of Tongtian Lake is gradually declining at this time. The secret place in the lake that was previously unknown is now open to the eyes of the monks.

“Wherever there is any hole, it is just a reef.” The nearby monks muttered inwardly when they saw the moss-covered stones exposed under the moonlight after the tide appeared.

"Brother Hu, did you remember it wrong?" Lu Tianlin also looked at Hu Qianshan in surprise.

"You can't be wrong!" Hu Qianshan smiled, stepped on a magic weapon shuttle, rose into the air, and moved his hands, and dozens of scorching fireballs appeared around him.

Lu Xiaotian's eyes were dazzled. He did not dare to regard a method used in the later stage of foundation building as an ordinary fireball technique. Even on the third level of his foundation building, he felt that these fireballs were extremely hot. As for those standing closer, The Qi Refining monks complained that they couldn't stand it anymore, and they all yelled and retreated in horror. Only then did the high temperature that seemed to scorch people drop a little.

Dozens of scorching fireballs flew towards the moss-covered reef under Hu Qianshan's wave. After an explosion that shook the lake shore, a large fireball large enough to accommodate several people was revealed. A huge entrance for traffic.

“It’s out, it’s out!”

“Brothers, let’s go in to hunt for treasures. The floating orbs produced by the floating clam monster in Tongtian Lake are worth a lot of money. Not to mention other monsters, just getting one or two older Fuling Orbs is not a worthwhile trip.”

Seeing the reef cave exposed only a few miles away from the lake shore, people couldn't help but burst into joy. This reef cave is so secretive, there must be many monsters left in the cave because they will not have time to recede with the tide in the future. Normally, monks are afraid of the vast water of Tongtian Lake, and other monks dare not go into the lake at all. Now it was a smooth road from the lake to the reef cave. All they had to do was to wade through a piece of mud. Maybe there may be other monsters in the mud, but if you don't dare to take this risk, how can you continue on the thorny road of cultivating immortality?

Of course, the monsters in the mud cannot threaten the foundation-building monks.

"Brother Lu, Brother Yan." Hu Qianshan glanced at Lu Tianlin and Yan Tielin. The two gave knowing orders, and in the first wave, a mid-stage foundation-building monk led four early-stage monks to carefully enter the reef cave using magical weapons.

"Brother Lu, some foundation-building seniors have already entered the reef cave. Now it's time for us to show our performance. We must be quick and slow. Don't fall behind."

Foundation-building monks After entering, the only ones left were a large number of Qi Refining monks who served as cannon fodder and also served as search missions.

Listening to the shouts of the silver-haired old man who had perfected the Qi Refining Perfection, Lu Xiaotian smiled secretly in his heart. It seemed that there were only a handful of Qi Refining monks who knew about Hunyuan Daozang. Two people like Lu Feng and Lu Hui are really outliers. As groups of monks continued to descend from the shore into the mud at the bottom of the lake, Lu Xiaotian, like other Qi Refining monks, stepped on the mud and started to move forward.

"Fellow Daoist Lu, please follow closely. This Tongtian Lake is mysterious and unpredictable. If it weren't for the tide caused by the power of heaven and earth, it would be difficult for us to get a glimpse of it. There may be other monsters in this mud, a It's not worth the trouble." Lu Hui, who is usually relatively taciturn, said hello to Lu Xiaotian. Foundation-building monks can directly control magic weapons to fly, but Qi-refining monks can only rely on one pair of legs, which poses many dangers.

"Thank you for reminding me." Lu Xiaotian nodded. How could he not know this situation? When they were snatching the magic beads in the Wangyue Mountains, several monks were pinched in two by the demon crab's giant pincers.

Wow.

Before he finished speaking, a snake-like monster, as thick as a bucket and covered in mud, shook its body and opened its mouth to swallow the nearest monk from the Lu family. inside. This demonic beast is huge. The body that struggled out of the mud is already several feet long, and it looks like it is only half a small body.

There was another scream, and a monk from the Yan family was sucked into the leg by a huge demon leech. In the blink of an eye, all the blood and essence on his body was sucked away.

“Fourth, fourth-order monster!”

The Qi Refining monks who descended into the mud were panicked. Although there were thousands of them, they could only pile up this fourth-order monster with a pile of people. Monster leeches, but those who get close will definitely die. No one is willing to use his own life to fulfill others.

Fortunately, the three aristocratic families of Yan, Lu, and Hu combined have more than thirty foundation-building monks. As soon as the demonic beast emerged from under the thick mud, several foundation-building monks came with swords and surrounded the demonic water. There was a lot of sword fighting, and hundreds of Qi-refining monks used various low-level spells. With a fierce attack, although the demon leech's defense was quite strong, a good tiger could not withstand the wolves. After killing more than ten Qi Refining monks, the plainclothes man screamed and was killed on the ground without holding on for long.

The other one is just a mud snake. In addition to its huge size and strength, it is actually just a third-level monster. After the initial panic, more than a dozen late-stage Qi refining people completed the Qi refining process. The monks rushed forward and chopped it into more than a dozen pieces.

The foundation-building monks took away the most valuable things, but some of the remaining materials were distributed to all the Qi-refining monks participating in the battle. Although more than a dozen people were lost, the benefits gained from the beginning made the morale of the thousands of monks present very high.

Of course, there were also those who had been close to the fourth-order demon leech before and were almost killed by the impact. Lu Feng was walking in front of a few people. His face was extremely pale at this time. It was obvious that he had been very frightened just now.

"Take these two elixir bottles. Each of them contains an elixir you want. It will be useful if you are exhausted and in danger." Seeing the two of them in critical moments, Lu Xiaotian didn't even think about it. He immediately pushed him to the front and gave each of them a Yuan Hui Dan in advance. "Thank you, fellow Daoist Lu." Lu Feng and Lu Hui took the elixir bottle with happy faces. However, there were so many people at this time that they couldn't show it too obviously, so they could only say thank you in a low voice.

Tongtian Lake is indeed as dangerous as the rumors say. Just in the miles of muddy ground from the lake shore to the reef cave, dozens of low-level monsters have appeared one after another. There are three beasts, which are equivalent to the fourth-level monsters in the foundation-building stage. This is mainly because of the tide. The water in this area has receded. Otherwise, even if several foundation-building monks besiege them, they can escape intact in the water.

This is still a muddy land. If you enter the reef cave, there is no guarantee that more powerful monsters will not appear in it. Lu Xiaotian also felt a sense of vigilance in his heart. The danger came not only from the monsters, but also from the foundation-building monks of the three families. Once they discovered that he had exposed his strength that he shouldn't have, they might also become suspicious of his purpose of lurking in.

Crossing several miles of muddy ground, Lu Xiaotian followed the Qi Refining monks and entered the gravel cave one after another. The reef cave was very large. After hundreds of people entered, they could still only occupy a small space inside. Unlike those muddy lake bottoms, the reef caves were filled with a large number of uneven, moss-covered stone depressions. Fish and shrimps could be seen from time to time in the low-lying water. Of course, some small animals may be several feet deep, or even dozens of feet deep. Not only did the temperature inside the reef cave drop a lot, the light also suddenly became much darker. However, the monks from several major families took out a lot of luminous pearls and placed them in some must-pass places. The three major families were well prepared, and the monks who entered felt a lot more at ease.

The reef cave is like a trumpet that is amplified countless times. The entrance is small, and the deeper you go inside, the bigger it gets. Even after thousands of people entered, they didn’t feel crowded at all.

"Did you see it? There is a floating clam demon there. It is so big. Not only the floating beads, but also the demon elixir must be valuable." A huge cyan clam that was as tall as a man was seen. When a large group of monks rushed in, he quickly fell from a stone into the water in the low-lying area next to him, but he was still seen by the monks.

The water in the low-lying pool is deep, but it is not a big problem for so many monks present. After hundreds of fireball spells, a large portion of the pool water splashed everywhere and evaporated in the blink of an eye. What was not evaporated also became scalding hot due to the scorching fireballs. The even more impatient monk got a few larger buckets from somewhere, scooped the water along the side of the pool and poured it to other places. It is not easy for ordinary mortals to drain this pool of water. However, with the physical strength and endurance of a cultivator, it does not take much time to drain almost all the water in the pool. What surprised the monks was that there were five floating clam beasts of different sizes inside.

"Kill!" The ecstatic monks have already used their own methods to attack. However, although the attack power of the Flying Clam Demon is weak, its defense power is super strong. Once you reach adulthood, it is not easy to break the clam shell even with a magic weapon. As for these Qi Refining monks who want to kill them, they can only take turns to attack.

"It's really a good thing, but there are too many people, so there aren't many of them." Lu Feng looked at the busy people and curled his lips.

The Fuling Orb can be used to calm the mind and be used to make jewelry for long-term wear. It can help monks in the Qi refining period break through bottlenecks. As for those who are older, it is also very helpful for foundation-building monks. . Moreover, the color is suitable, and both male and female monks are quite fond of it. In addition, the duckweed and clam monsters have super strong defense, second only to magic items, and are difficult for ordinary monks to obtain. This tide has become an excellent opportunity. Whether it is a demon pill or a floating pearl, they are all very precious.

With so many people present, even if there are good things, they cannot be distributed to everyone. They will basically fall into the hands of a few family foundation-building monks, and then be converted into spiritual stones and distributed among everyone. superior. Lu Feng and Lu Hui have already reached the Great Perfection of Qi Refining, and they have the Huiyuan Pill refined by Lu Xiaotian. They don't need much of the spirit stones that were shared. Considering that the situation in the reef cave is not clear yet, they will spend it now. If you put too much effort into things that are not necessary, you will not be able to maintain the state of your heyday. Lu Feng and Lu Hui can be regarded as extraordinary people if they can maintain this and not gain from immediate interests. Lu Xiaotian nodded secretly among the crowd.

“You don’t plan to join in the fun, fellow Daoist Lu?” Lu Hui said with a blink.

"Fellow Daoist Lu is a great high-level alchemist, so he naturally looks down upon such frivolous wealth."

Lu Feng whispered, knowing in his heart that not everyone can use the Huiyuan Pill. For refining, the two of them only provided five copies of the materials for the Huiyuan Pill to Lu Xiaotian. Lu Xiaotian had already refined a batch of the pill. He had secretly opened it just now and took a look. It was still a middle-grade Huiyuan Pill. This kind of elixir-making rate and the quality of the refining are probably extremely powerful even among high-level alchemists. With Lu Xiaotian's apparent age and his cultivation in the alchemy path, I am afraid that becoming a junior alchemist is just around the corner. Even if they have become foundation-building monks, they must treat a junior alchemist with courtesy. Being able to make friends with someone who is so good at alchemy is an extremely rare thing for both casual cultivators and sect cultivators.

“A person who can survive in various dangers must have a strong sense of purpose and will not be easily tempted by other inducements. A little benefit now, unpaid, will not be a reminder later.” Lu Xiaotian said something profound.

"Fellow Daoist Lu is right." Lu Feng and the other two nodded. They naturally knew that Lu Xiaotian was referring to Hunyuan Daozang. Indeed, before entering Hunyuan Daozang, they should not consume too much mana. It would be even worse if it left trauma.

Sis.

A strange sound was not conspicuous among the jeering monks, but several foundation-building monks who were close had noticed the abnormality.

More than a dozen people found several medium-grade water spirit stones and ice spirit stones in the cracks of a rock. They were so happy that dozens of people swarmed in, broke the stones, and moved them away. Suddenly A dark cave was opened, and a cold air came out of it. Even the monks who had completed the Qi Refining Perfection couldn't help but shudder and get goosebumps all over their bodies. The cold air made the nearest monks in the Qi Refining Stage freeze to death, and a huge spider-like leg stretched out from the inside, directly piercing the chest of the nearest Qi Refining monk.

Immediately afterwards, a giant black spider with a body nearly ten feet long and several feet in diameter emerged from the spider's mouth. From time to time, a cold breath came out of the spider's mouth. As the eight long legs moved in succession, dozens of Qi Refining monks screamed and died in the blink of an eye.

"Adult Cold Midge Spider!"

The monks present were so horrified that they jumped on their hind legs. There were as many as three giant Cold Midge Spiders emerging from the black hole, and the two latter ones were even bigger. The aura has actually exceeded the initial stage of foundation building. Two green round eyes looked coldly at the human monk opposite.

Not only that, the black hole that suddenly opened seemed to be a bottomless pit. In the blink of an eye, there was a rustle, dozens, hundreds, and smaller gray midge spiders poured out of it like a tide. In the blink of an eye, there were as many as Thousands. The number of gray midge spiders has exceeded a thousand in a blink of an eye, and the inside seems to be exhausted.

"Retreat!" Originally, they rushed forward, intending to strangle the cold midge spiders who were in the foundation building stage together, but they didn't know that there was a powerful existence of the sixth level inside. And from behind, two more powerful auras emerged, together with as many as five cold midge spiders equivalent to the foundation-building stage. One is at the fifth level, and the other has reached the sixth level, which is equivalent to a powerful existence in the late stage of foundation building.
