Chapter 304: The Bottom of the Scaled Lake
As the night gets darker, the moon moves to the middle of the sky. In the Linguang Lake, little sparkles of light have begun to appear, adding a bit of a blur to the scenery.
By the Linguang Lake, a group of four people quietly dived into the water.
It was Zhu Hui, Shawen and others that Ling Xiao had met before and had a duel with. After they had a battle with Ling Xiao, the latter escaped calmly. They did not dare to be careless and searched around first.
, found no traces of others, and decided to dive into the lake.
After all, the matter was so important that they couldn't help but be more careful. However, since no trace of Ling Xiao was found again, they felt a little relieved.
I think I just passed by by chance; and Linguang Lake is so wide, how could I encounter it again by such a coincidence?
However, they never thought that after Ling Xiao dived into the water, he did not stay away. Instead, after circling for a while under the water, he sneaked ashore again and lurked near them again.
This time, Ling Xiao deliberately eavesdropped, and quietly followed them for a long time, and figured out the general purpose of their trip.
The matter started more than ten days ago.
It turned out that the casual cultivator named Shawen discovered a cave at the bottom of the Linguang Lake by chance. According to him, it should have been left behind by a great cultivator of the Golden Core Stage after his death.
.There are probably many leftover techniques, magic weapons and other objects hidden inside.
Shawen had already gone to investigate before, but he was not strong enough to break through the cave's restrictions. So Shawen had no choice but to ask Zhu Hui and others for help.
Among them, the name of the female cultivator is Yi Rong. She is a junior disciple of a family that cultivates immortals near the Jiuding Mountains.
As for that middle-aged man, his name was Lou Jin, and he was also a very famous casual cultivator nearby.
Regardless of Zhu Hui, Yi Rong, or Lou Jin, they were all found by Sha Wen. However, since Zhu Hui was the tallest among the four of them regardless of status or cultivation level, it was natural that he also became Zhu Hui.
Hui took the lead. Shawen even fawned over Zhu Hui all the way, which also made Yi Rong very dissatisfied. As for Lou Jin, although he was taciturn, he obviously didn't think much of Shawen...
Of course, these have nothing to do with Ling Xiao.
Ling Xiao had no intention of caring about the dispute between the four of them. Instead, he became very interested in the cave they mentioned. It was probably the residence of a great monk at the Golden Core Stage. Of course, he also wanted to enter the cave.
Let's see if there is any chance of harvesting anything.
So Ling Xiao kept following them quietly. With his current level of cultivation and careful concealment, it was naturally difficult for Zhu Hui and the four of them to discover him.
When the four of them dived into the lake, Ling Xiao waited for a while before slowly approaching.
But unexpectedly, as soon as he started to move, there was a sudden squeaking sound beside him. Ling Xiao couldn't help being startled, and quickly turned his head to look, only to see a fourth-order monster lying not far away from him!
The fourth-level monster looks like a monster rabbit, but its skin color is very similar to the green of the surrounding vegetation. Unless you look carefully, it is almost difficult to detect.
But among the pair of eyeballs on top of its head, a pair of pupils are filled with five-color brilliance. It looks very strange.
And the aura on it is also very strange.
At first glance, it seems to be the aura of a fourth-order monster. But if you look at it carefully, it sometimes looks like a fifth-order, sometimes like a third-order... It changes unexpectedly. Moreover, Ling Xiao's spiritual consciousness cultivation is so strong.
?He had been carefully guarding his surroundings. But before the demon rabbit appeared, Ling Xiao failed to notice its existence!
Ling Xiao felt that it didn't seem to be hostile, and seemed to be very interested in him. It crawled in front of him and made "squeaking" sounds from time to time.
Ling Xiao was very interested, so he cautiously stepped forward and reached out to touch the top of its head.
The latter also crawled there meekly, only occasionally raising his head and licking Ling Xiao's hand, showing his closeness.
Ling Xiao couldn't help but feel a little stir in his heart, remembering that at first, he was noticed by Zhu Hui, Shawen and the others because of the sudden squeaking sound around him. Now that he thinks about it, the person who caused the sound at that time should be
Is this a weird monster rabbit in front of you? But after a fight between Ling Xiao and Zhu Hui, everyone forgot about this culprit...
Although the origin of this demon rabbit is somewhat unknown, since it is willing to stay with him, Ling Xiao naturally doesn't mind taking it in.
But I couldn't help but wonder why this demon rabbit was so interested in me. I guess it shouldn't be me who is interested, but something about me, right?
But at this time, of course, there is no time to think about this.
So Ling Xiao smiled, pointed at the scale lake in front of him, and said to the demon rabbit: "I want to go to the lake, do you want to come with me?"
Although most of the fourth-level monsters are still unable to understand human speech, their intelligence is far superior to that of ordinary beasts. Therefore, they can still barely distinguish some simple meanings.
Sure enough, the demon rabbit "squeaked" twice, as if to express its agreement. Then it suddenly jumped out and ran towards the lake first. Then it dived into the water without hesitation, and four short
His rabbit legs were gesticulating back and forth, as if he were swimming.
Ling Xiao couldn't help but smile. Not to mention, this demon rabbit's paddling skills were actually quite good.
But halfway through his smile, the smile on his face suddenly solidified...
I saw the green demon rabbit in front of me. As it swam in the scaly lake, its skin color gradually changed to an almost transparent water color!
Then, its aura began to slowly converge. In no time, it had completely converged, and even Ling Xiao could not detect it.
If Ling Xiao hadn't witnessed it slowly changing color and condensing its aura in the lake, even he would have doubted whether the demon rabbit was really in that position... What a terrifying method of concentrating its breath.
In comparison, although his breath-containing technique is also good at condensing breath, it is much worse than that of this demon rabbit.
…
After going through all the twists and turns just now, Ling Xiao sneaked into the Linguang Lake.
He had used his spiritual consciousness to secretly follow Shawen earlier. Shawen was the weakest in cultivation. In addition, Ling Xiao was cautious and only followed from a distance, so he was not noticed. At this time, he could judge that the four of them were
Slowly follow the person's approximate position from behind.
When it comes to hiding one's body, this demon rabbit is even more clever than Ling Xiao himself, so Ling Xiao doesn't have to worry too much about it. He just completely restrains his aura and dives towards the bottom of the lake.
Zhu Hui, Shawen and the others had stopped somewhere deep in the lake bottom. They seemed to be talking to each other, but in order to avoid being noticed by them, Ling Xiao did not dare to bring his consciousness close to them easily.
However, since they would stay there for such a long time, then it is very likely that the place they came to is the cave of the golden elixir stage monk they mentioned, right?
Ling Xiao's heart couldn't help but feel a little warm.
Slowly approaching the past.
Various aquatic plants and rocks at the bottom of the lake are scattered at random, and the terrain is extremely complex. Even though Ling Xiao roughly judged the location, when he approached there, he still almost couldn't find his direction several times. It can be imagined from this that their location is
How hidden.
Of course, if it hadn't been so hidden and so close to the Danding Gate, this cave wouldn't have been preserved until now.
Finally, they were within a hundred feet. Ling Xiao hid among a jumble of rocks under the water and secretly looked in the direction where they were.
The color of the demon rabbit also changed again, somewhat similar to the gray of the rocks, and it lay beside him.
Ling Xiao couldn't help but be impressed. Regardless of the strength of this demon rabbit, just the ability to hide its traces was already quite impressive.
I really don’t know what kind of monster this is...
Not far away, Zhu Hui and Shawen were also gathered around a rocky reef, whispering to each other.
It's just that the voices they spoke were too low, so Ling Xiao couldn't hear anything.
On the contrary, the chaotic reef in front of me seems ordinary at first glance. But if you observe carefully, you can notice that when the lake water flows near the chaotic reef, it will form circles that are almost imperceptible.
The vortex secretly transfers the flowing lake water to other directions...
Ling Xiao couldn't help but perked up and was able to confirm almost immediately that the chaotic reef in front of him must be the entrance to the cave.
Chapter completed!
