Eternal Tranquility

The next night, it was time for the lake water to be sucked away again, and Liu Qinghuan, who had recovered, was already waiting at the deep pit in the lake.

It is said that a big whirlpool is about to form. Why did Liu Qinghuan appear here at this time?

That's right, Liu Qinghuan, who has committed suicide once, is ready to commit suicide again! After a night of hard thinking, he thought that since the lake water could take him out of the maze very quickly when it surged back, then when the lake water receded, it would naturally take him into the depths of the maze very quickly, and it was very likely that he would reach a certain end point. Where!

Although the process will inevitably be "squeaky", Liu Qinghuan can't think of a better and faster way to explore the maze.

"Gudong, Gudong!" Several bubbles suddenly appeared in the center of the pit.

coming! Liu Qinghuan cheered up.

With a gurgling sound, the bubbles that emerged began to form in clusters. The pit shook slightly, and a round hole appeared in the center. The round hole rotated like a blooming flower, growing larger in circles, and then a large hole was formed, and the lake water rushed into the hole crazily.

Liu Qinghuan jumped in when the entrance of the cave could accommodate one person. He didn't want to stay outside and be torn apart by the whirlpool, so it was safer to go in first.

As soon as he entered the hole, the suction force appeared. This time he was a little prepared and tried his best to maintain his balance in the water. It's just that there are a lot of undercurrents in the water, and the maze passages are winding, so they will still hit the wall from time to time.

An hour later, after countless collisions, he was dizzy and lay on the ground for a long time. Only then did he realize that the suction had disappeared, the water was gone, and there were stars rising in front of his eyes. While his energy and blood were surging, the spiritual power in his body also disappeared. Disorder occurs.

He did not dare to be careless and quickly meditated to channel his spiritual power. He didn't expect the maze to be so huge. He used the power of suction and water flow to walk for an hour. By now, he was probably deep into the Qushang Swamp.

After straightening out his spiritual power, Liu Qinghuan stood up and looked at where he was. This is finally no longer a maze passage, but a square hall. The hall was still built of bluestone, about five or six feet long and three feet wide. The ground was very dry, but there were traces of water flowing over the walls. It was clear that the hall was empty and empty.

Unwilling to give in, he searched carefully in the hall and finally found a few remaining bone fragments in the cracks on the ground. The bone fragments seemed to have existed for many years, and the bones had turned white, with extremely subtle spiritual energy fluctuations on them.

This should have been left behind by the death of a certain spiritual beast or demonic beast a long time ago. After all this time, spiritual power is still attached to it. I guess the beast's cultivation level must have been quite high back then. He squeezed it gently with his spiritual power, and the bone fragments shattered into powder and fell from between his fingers.

Searching the hall again, there was no other discovery, no exit as expected, no source of suction, and no idea where the lake water went.

After walking out of the hall and walking out of the shot along the bluestone passage, I finally discovered the existence of water stains again, and other forks also reappeared here.

Liu Qinghuan touched his chin and fell into deep thought. He had some vague ideas about this underground maze, but they have yet to be verified.

For the next period of time, Liu Qinghuan rested and practiced during the day, and took a ride at night to wander around the maze tirelessly. Most of the time, he would be taken to stone halls similar to the previous halls. These stone halls were large and small. Except for the occasional bone or two, nothing else was found. But this is also reasonable. After all, the suction force in the maze is so strong, and it is washed away by the lake water all year round. Even if there was anything before, it will be sucked away one by one, leaving nothing behind.

There are gains to be made. After countless "snap bangs", Liu Qinghuan is becoming more and more able to control her body in the rapid torrent, and she is less and less stuck on the cave wall. After getting used to the suction, now I can use the suction to roam freely in the maze.

At the same time, although his cultivation was still at the early stage of the fourth level of Qi training, his spiritual power had become much purer, and the original light blue color had become more solid. This can be regarded as an unexpected gain, because every day he has to constantly sort out the spiritual power that was messed up by the terrifying attraction, and he must always maintain the spiritual power output of the shield, which makes his control over his own spiritual power much higher than before. cut. Now every ounce of spiritual energy in his body has been restrained in an orderly manner, and the use of spells has become smoother. He can now move at will. At the same time, the enhanced micro-control ability also allows him to save time when using spells. A lot of unnecessary spiritual power.

But even so, Liu Qinghuan's patience was about to run out. He has been staying here for more than two months, and he is not here to practice Langli Baitiao's skills. If he doesn't find anything today, he will not waste time here anymore.

Following the direction of the undercurrent, he kicked the wall of the cave and changed direction, sliding out like a fish. Since he was able to control his body in the water, he always tried to choose the maze passage that he had never been to before.

However, the passage this time was very different from the past. In the past, it usually only took about an hour to reach the end of the passage, but this time he had been soaking in the water for nearly two hours and still hadn't seen the destination. Because he passed through so many side roads, he could no longer tell the difference between east, west and north, let alone memorize the route.

His heart was lifted, and he was increasingly looking forward to what would happen ahead.

After passing a few more forks, he no longer deliberately changed direction and allowed his body to be carried away by the current. Suddenly he felt a lightness on his body, the suction disappeared, and the water in the lake decreased sharply. Liu Qinghuan knew that he had reached the right place.

After walking forward for a while, there was no trace of water on the ground. Liu Qinghuan leaned over and touched the ground, and there was ashes in his hand. This place should have never been affected by the erosion and suction of water, otherwise there would not be such a thick accumulation of dust. There are not as many forks in the road ahead as before, and one will only appear at a long distance, but the blue stone remains unchanged.

Passing by intersections one after another, Liu Qinghuan suddenly stopped after a stick of incense and stared ahead. The maze is usually extremely dark because it is deep underground. Liu Qinghuan has been looking at it with his spiritual consciousness, but at this moment he was looking ahead with his naked eyes in confusion, and said to himself: "Is there a light ahead?"

If the darkness before was a thick black ink, now it is like a layer that slowly becomes thinner after adding water. He couldn't help but feel refreshed and quickened his pace. The passage ahead became brighter and brighter, and a half-open stone door appeared in the dim light.

One side of the stone door has completely fallen off and is leaning against the wall. There is only a narrow gap in the middle that can allow people to pass through, and soft light shines from inside.

There are footprints on the ground!

Liu Qinghuan's heart "thumped" as she put on the purple cloud cape with her backhand. He listened carefully, and after hearing no unusual movement behind the stone door, he slowly leaned over.

I saw a few shallow footprints floating on the dust on the bluestone ground near the stone gate. Just like a person who had been using the Quiet Cloud Art to walk, because the stone door was narrow, he put the Art Art away and dropped it to the ground so that he could pass through the gap in the stone door.

However, these footprints have only shallow traces left. The person who left them must have been here a long time ago. Only because the underground labyrinth is closed all year round and there are no other factors, the footprints will stay here for a long time.

Judging from the size of the footprints, they should have been left by an adult man. The gap in the stone door is narrower than that of an adult man, but for a thin boy, he can pass through it easily. He didn't take back Jie Yun Jue and went straight through the stone gate.

In front of you is a square stone hall, about five feet square. The high dome is inlaid with several moonstones. The soft light shines brightly on the stone hall. The walls are still blue stones, but the ground is neatly paved with blue bricks, which is a bit unusual.

Squatting down and brushing away the dust with his sleeves, he saw that the green bricks were crystal clear, without any impurities or flaws, and they were square and straight, covering the entire hall. When he was in the secular world, he had seen jade bracelets worn by wealthy women, which were clear and delicate, but compared with the green bricks on the ground, they looked like rough stones.

But no matter how beautiful it is, to immortal cultivators, it is just ordinary jade without spiritual energy.

Liu Qinghuan stood up and looked around. There is no obstruction in the hall. There are only some collapsed stones near the corners. Judging from the shape, they should be stone tables and benches. It is obvious that someone has lived here before.

In addition to the stone door that comes in, there is a door on the other three walls. He entered the door on the left first, which led to a corridor. After walking a dozen steps, he came to another stone hall.

It was still paved with sapphire bricks as in the hall, and there was a stone platform in the middle. The stone platform was tilted to one side, which showed that someone had disturbed it before. I don’t know if the other party gained something, but Liu Qinghuan didn’t. The situation inside the door on the right is the same as here.

Liu Qinghuan looked at the last door in the main hall, no longer holding out any extravagant hopes.
