344 Upheaval in Yinghuang! (1)

What appeared in front of Xu Qing was a huge blue lake. The water looked clear but upon closer inspection, one could tell that the water here was frozen.

There was also some colorful vegetation growing in the surroundings. Even the top of the cave where the lake was located was covered in moss.

The humidity was strong here.

Xu Qing’s gaze swept across the surroundings. Regardless of whether it was the inspection from the shadow eye or his perception at this moment, he didn’t sense any danger here. However, Xu Qing was still vigilant and carefully walked toward the lake. After he got close, he looked at the bottom of the lake.

Under the clear frozen lake, the bottom of the lake was clearly visible. After taking a look, Xu Qing fell silent.

The bottom of the lake was covered in countless bones and gravel.

Looking at the structure of the densely packed bones, they belonged to both men and women. It was as though this place had experienced a tragedy many years ago.

“I found this place by accident and have come here many times but I haven’t encountered any danger. There are also no strange changes to the bones at the bottom of the lake.” Wu Jianwu leaned over and swept his gaze over. He was afraid that Xu Qing would misunderstand his good intentions and hurriedly explained.

Xu Qing nodded. After careful observation, he discovered that the frozen water quality here was still a little different from the immortal jelly recorded in Grandmaster Bai’s pharmacopeia.

There was more fragrance from this lake.

This was especially obvious near the lake. The fragrance from the lake enveloped the entire area and when it entered one’s mouth and nose, their mouths would be filled with sweetness. It was fine at first but after smelling it for a long time, one would feel extremely disgusted.

This didn’t match the description of the immortal jelly.

However, Xu Qing guessed that before this place experienced the drastic changes, there was a high chance that this place was a pool surrounded by immortal Qi.

The lake water here was very likely formed by the immortal Qi mentioned in the pharmacopeia. However, it experienced unfathomable changes, so the thing that formed looked like immortal jelly but was different.

It could be considered a mutated immortal jelly.

Xu Qing didn’t know its exact effects but he felt that it should have considerable research value.

He retracted his gaze and was about to take some more.

However, at this moment, Xu Qing suddenly exclaimed softly and looked carefully at the bottom of the lake.

The life fires in his body burned at this moment and his cultivation erupted, forming a sea of fire storm.

At the side, Wu Jianwu’s eyes were wide open as he was swept back by Xu Qing’s aura.

“What’s going on!”

As soon as Wu Jianwu spoke, Xu Qing had already gathered the power of his life fires in his eyes, causing his eyes to surpass the stars at this moment, emitting a resplendent light as he stared at a spot at the bottom of the lake.

There, amidst the bones and a large amount of rubble, there was a large stone that gave Xu Qing a sense of familiarity.

“What are you looking at? Is there anything good inside? It’s a pity that this lake water is strange and I don’t dare to go down. I also thought of a way to fish out the bones inside but I couldn’t…” Wu Jianwu noticed Xu Qing’s gaze and hurriedly spoke.

However, before he could finish speaking, the stone that Xu Qing was staring at seemed to have been grabbed by an invisible hand. It suddenly shifted and was pulled out, slowly penetrating the lake until it was dragged out and floated in front of Xu Qing.

This scene caused Wu Jianwu to gasp.

Xu Qing observed the large stone carefully. After a long time, he found the reason for the familiarity.

That was the aura of Extreme Heaven Saber.

This stone contained the divine charm of the Extreme Heaven Saber.

Xu Qing was quite surprised as he stored it.

The shadow also returned silently. It was the one who went over to take out this large stone earlier.

As the large stone was taken out, the location where it was before revealed a broken stone tablet that was originally hidden below.

As the surrounding lake water slowly fluctuated, the silt on the stone tablet dissipated to the edge, revealing some words and images.

Xu Qing immediately looked over.

“Purple Green Kingdom’s Immortal Cleansing Pool?” Wu Jianwu, who was at the side, also sensed it. When he saw the words clearly, he exclaimed.

Xu Qing was also very surprised. After taking a closer look, he noticed that the image on the stone tablet seemed to be a map of the Nanhuang Continent.

On it was the location of the Purple Green Kingdom’s Capital. It was the current Purple Earth. There was the location mark of the Immortal Cleansing Pool, and a mark at the side that said Crown Prince’s Residence.

Looking at its location, it was none other than the ruins of the Extreme Heaven Dao Temple that Xu Qing wanted to go to previously.

Xu Qing stared at the lake. The origin of this place was already clear. At the same time, the name Purple Green Kingdom appeared in Xu Qing’s memories again.

The first time he heard of Purple Green Kingdom was in Purple Earth when Chen Feiyuan told him about the eight great families.

Only then did he know that long, long ago, there was such a country with mystical bloodlines in the Nanhuang Continent.

“They can form symbiosis with magic treasures…”

Xu Qing recalled the feeling Chen Feiyuan gave him back then. He was clearly very weak but also very strong.

After a long time, Xu Qing retracted his gaze and took out some more of the mutated immortal jelly. He didn’t stay any longer and turned to leave the location of the lake.

He returned to the outside world.

Wu Jianwu sent him all the way to outside the entrance of the crack. At that moment, he crossed his hands and looked at Xu Qing eagerly, wanting to say something but hesitated.

“I won’t tell anyone else. You can rest assured.” Xu Qing cast a meaningful glance at Wu Jianwu. With a sway of his body, he transformed into a rainbow and left.

Wu Jianwu was left alone. He stood there with a melancholic expression, worrying about his gains and losses.

A long time later, Wu Jianwu gritted his teeth fiercely.

“I can’t worry too much. Although this Xu Qing is domineering, he should be a person who keeps his promises. At worst… I won’t return to the sect for a while until I nurture my precious children!”
