Chapter 507 Wait and see what happens
Lu Sangjiu didn't expect these two people to leave together directly, but judging from the tone and content of the conversation, it seemed that Fan Xing was being bullied.
She felt that it was probably after they separated that Fan Xing felt unsafe with only two people in their team, so he took the initiative to join Fan Lin's team.
However, Fan Xing's personality is a bit soft, and since he actively asked to join, and there is one less person than the other party, he probably doesn't have much say in front of Fan Lin.
She would bring everyone here, probably following the guidance of her compass. That thing is really useful.
But now that their goals have collided with theirs, it's a bit difficult.
The treaty they signed before coming in stated that within the secret realm, they were not allowed to take the initiative to attack the Fan family.
Of course, if the Fan family made the first move, they could still fight back.
But they are not stupid, and they will probably remember this rule. If they really want to take action later, they will be restrained.
After thinking about it, Lu Sangjiu simply used the Thousand Faces of Floating Life to hide their aura while their sight was still blocked by the miasma, and hid it on a tree in the lake.
After a while, Lu Sangjiu saw the figures of several people, but there were only four people left in the team that was supposed to be five. The other one didn't know whether he had left or died.
Taking a closer look, the person missing was actually Sun Rang from Fan Xing's side. In this case, Fan Xing joined Fan Lin's team alone. No wonder the other party was so rude.
The situation was unclear at the moment, so Lu Sangjiu thought it would be good to have someone explore the way for them, so he simply waited and waited.
Fan Lin looked at the lake in front of him and was not reckless. He just looked at a male cultivator next to him and said, "Don't you still have some magical beasts? Let's let one go and have a look."
These monsters were probably intended to be used to explore the road, so the male cultivator didn't hesitate to release one of them and said, "Go to the bottom of the lake to explore the situation."
Warcraft stood by the lake, but he seemed a little hesitant, obviously not wanting to go down.
But the male cultivator then recited some spell, and the monster immediately seemed to be in pain. In the end, even if it was unwilling, it could only jump into the lake tremblingly.
Lu Sangjiu originally thought that even if something happened to it, it would at least be after it reached the bottom of the lake.
But I never expected that just after it entered the water, it didn't even have time to scream, and the entire beast was melted directly by the lake water! It's so shocking that there isn't even a bone left!
This effect is comparable to that of spirit-killing water.
It's just that the spirit-killing water is basically only useful for low-level monks. For high-level monks, it can only be used to destroy corpses and eliminate traces after the person dies.
But the level of the monster just now was about the Fusion stage. When it went down, it had a protective shield around its body, but it was still instantly dissolved.
Not only Lu Sangjiu was surprised, but the four people were even more surprised. Fan Xing, who was still quite close to the edge of the lake, turned pale and stepped back, almost crying from fear.
"What is this? How can it be so powerful?"
Someone frowned and thought for a moment, then asked uncertainly, "Could the miasma here be caused by the transpiration of the lake water?"
The miasma is also very powerful. In addition to taking detoxification pills, they also need a lot of energy to repair and maintain the protective shield around their body.
I thought this miasma was particularly powerful before, but when I thought about it again, if the miasma was only caused by a little bit of water evaporated from the lake, how powerful would the lake itself be?
Thinking about it this way, it seems that it is not too surprising that the monster will be instantly dissolved.
"So, is this lake so powerful because it is poisonous? In this case, how are we going to get down?"
Being able to melt away monsters instantly, even if their cultivation level is higher, they may not be able to last longer inside. What's more, they don't know what's going on below. It's too dangerous to go down there rashly.
At this time, Fan Xing suddenly said, "How about... use the Water Diversion Technique to drain the lake?"
Of course, it's impossible to disappear into thin air, but it's still possible to lead them elsewhere.
As for whether it would cause any damage to this place, they couldn't worry too much about the treasure.
Fan Lin thought he could give it a try, so he said directly to Fan Xing, "Come here!"
This lake may not be big or small, but it is still a very physically demanding task.
What's more, the lake water is also poisonous. If you are not careful, you may hurt yourself. Naturally, no one is willing to do it.
Fan Xing was assigned the task. He was obviously reluctant, but he didn't dare to say anything more. He could only say, "Then... I'll give it a try and ask a few people to protect me."
After saying that, she kneaded the secret and started to stir up the lake water.
In an instant, a whirlpool appeared in the center of the lake, and a water dragon rose up from it. Under the command, it headed towards the distance.
This secret realm has some restrictions on the true level of the monks, especially in this miasma forest, where the spiritual consciousness cannot spread very far at all.
Therefore, the water diversion technique can only divert the lake water to a place about two miles away from them.
It's far enough and the ground can absorb some of it, so there's no need to worry about backflow.
Just as Fan Xing was trying to drain the lake, Lu Sangjiu suddenly felt someone approaching from behind. She was startled and turned around to take action, but was pressed on the back of her hand.
Yan Xue's voice rang in her mind, "Don't get excited, it's me."
Lu Sangjiu breathed a sigh of relief, but became more and more curious about Yan Xue.
She used the Thousand Faces of Floating Life to hide her aura, but she was able to see through it immediately, and she even approached calmly?
After taking a look at Fan Xing and the others, it seemed like they would still be there for a while, so she finally couldn't help but asked out of curiosity, "How on earth did you see through my disguise and hide my aura?"
When it came to privacy, I thought Yan Xue might not answer, but she didn't expect that she gave the answer casually.
"Because I have a pair of eyes that can see through everything in the world."
As she said that, she smiled mysteriously at Lu Sangjiu, "Everything in the world, no matter how powerful the deception is, is useless in front of me. Are you envious?"
Lu Sangjiu was surprised and a little envious, but before she could say anything, Yan Xue smiled again and said proudly: "It's useless to be envious, this is my innate talent, and others can't envy it. "
talent? Only then did Lu Sangjiu vaguely realize that Yan Xue might not be human.
Generally speaking, when it comes to talents, they have to be demons or spiritual beasts. For example, her senior sister Luo Linlang's spiritual speaking skills are the talents of the ancient Fire Phoenix clan.
Although he thinks Yan Xue is very mysterious, Lu Sangjiu feels that after this job, the two of them will probably never have any intersection again, and there is no point in thinking too much.
So he put his thoughts back and continued to watch Fan Xing's actions.
At this time, about half of the water in the lake had been pumped out, and victory seemed in sight.
Just when Lu Sangjiu thought their method might be successful, the lake water suddenly began to bubble!
