Free Web NovelThe two fell silent again, the scene before them completely beyond their comprehension, and the two big shots were just speechless.
“Plop...”
Crystal-like raindrops splattered on their faces.
...
The rain fell heavily.
But Mingxi and her group did not stop their journey.
Because Hanguo, who had gone ahead to scout, sent back exciting news.
Not far ahead was a lake.
If all went well, that would be their destination for this trip—Wangyue Lake.
Mingxi pushed aside a patch of Euonymus alatus in front of her, and the entire forest seemed to suddenly shed its gray haze.
A blue-green lake finally appeared before their eyes.
It lay quietly in the land encircled by giant trees, like a glazed cup accidentally overturned by a deity.
Beautiful Silver Flowers floated on the water, each petal curled like half a moon.
The leaves struck down by raindrops fell into the lake.
A group of vermillion fish surfaced, their caudal fins gently tapping the leaves, dragging them towards the bottom of the lake.
It was as if they were cleaning the lake surface.
Rain threads slanted into the water, stirring up countless transparent umbrella fungi, and the silver-white Silver Flowers drifted away with the ripples. freёweɓnovel.com
The last ray of twilight fell into the lake, startling thousands of ethereal blue light points.
“Is this... Wangyue Lake?”
Chen Xin’s damp little face was filled with awe.
This place, and the ethereal beauty of Bloodless Despair Abyss’s surface, were two completely different kinds of beauty.
Bloodless Despair Abyss was unrealistically beautiful, making one marvel and appreciate it at first glance, even wanting to enter and lose oneself in it.
But this lake possessed a beauty that one couldn't bear to disturb.
As if disturbing it would be a blasphemy against a deity.
Lin Chen wasn’t as emotional; he immediately pulled out the map Yuan Qing had given to Mingxi, “According to the map, this should be it.”
“Luo.”
“As.”
Little Silver Flower, Black Pearl, and Bright Crystal had already burst with curiosity, splashing into the lake without any hesitation.
Black Pearl, who plunged into the water and instantly disappeared.
Little Silver Flower, who flew into the silver moss flowers to pick half-moons for vanity.
And Bright Crystal, who took off her red soul tuan to mimic Nezha stirring up the sea.
These three were like mischievous monkeys from Mount Emei—naughty and uncontrollable.
Mingxi: “...”
Others are wild by three parts, you guys are wild by ten parts, huh?
Seriously, thank you.
However, according to the information provided by Yuan Qing, there was no danger here; it was the safest place in the entire Wanmo Territory.
Even encountering fierce and bloodthirsty wild Transcendent creatures was fine; there seemed to be a soothing power here that could keep Transcendent creatures' emotions in a pleasant and stable state.
This was also why Mingxi didn't stop the three rebellious ones from rebelling.
Transcendent creatures are sensitive; ❀ Nоvеlігht ❀ (Don’t copy, read here) if this lake truly had a problem, the three of them wouldn't be so unrestrained.
“Abyss power.”
Golden Yuanbao flew to her shoulder, confirming Yuan Qing’s statement.
It also said that this lake was very warm.
Mingxi nodded.
“Guangguang, what are your thoughts?”
Guangguang had already been scanning.
Although it felt that it was now flesh and blood, definitely a high-level intelligent life, in fact, it was indeed a void data body, so it didn't have the same feelings as Golden Yuanbao and the others.
“No thoughts, but I detected fluctuations of the power of rules, the kind that can be absorbed.”
The power of rules in Wanmo Territory was actually not scarce; like Tower Killing and Bloodless Despair Abyss, both had complex fluctuations of the power of rules.
But those powers of rules were condensed but not gathered; they were merely the dissipated energy of the rules themselves.
In short, these rule energy fluctuations were different from the existence of the Thunder Pool; they could not be collected by Time Realm.
This meant that Wangyue Lake was very likely also a special Energy Pool.
“What kind of energy forms the power of rules?”
Mingxi was curious.
Guangguang: “All attributes.”
“...That’s amazing.”
No wonder this lake could make all Transcendent creatures feel intimate and warm.
An all-attribute Energy Pool, how could it not be intimate and warm?
“Why hasn’t anyone discovered its peculiarity?”
Whether it was the information Lin Chen and his team collected or the intelligence Mingxi found herself, the description of Wangyue Lake was always—a magical and beautiful, but otherwise unremarkable, ordinary lake.
Although the experiences of Yuan Qing and Qiyue Yao proved that the legendary Nine Gods Temple should be here.
So it really wasn't special at all.
But it was also true that no one had discovered that it was actually an all-attribute Energy Pool.
“Based on known information and a large amount of empirical data, I performed multiple deductions, and the greatest possibility I arrived at is that its energy is all supplied to the Nine Gods Temple, so it is both an all-attribute Energy Pool and an ordinary lake.”
Mingxi felt that Guangguang’s deductions were still quite reliable.
The chance of error was very low.
“Then how do we find the entrance to the Nine Gods Temple?”
Yuan Qing and Qiyue Yao did enter the Nine Gods Temple when it appeared, but they had no idea how to find its entrance.
At that time, they were being hunted by a powerful exploration team; the other members of their team died, leaving only the two of them who luckily ran to Wangyue Lake.
Due to their severe injuries, they both fainted by the lake.
At that time, Qiyue Yao was much more seriously injured than her, and she was less injured because she had been protected.
When she woke up, Qiyue Yao was still unconscious.
And after she woke up, she only stayed inside for less than two minutes before they were both ejected, so Qiyue Yao had not actually seen the Nine Gods Temple with her own eyes.
“The reason I am sure that place was the legendary Nine Gods Temple is because I saw ten palaces, nine small palaces floating in mid-air like satellites, guarding the giant palace in the center in an arching posture.”
Yuan Qing had returned to Wangyue Lake several times, even harming herself and others, trying to create the exact same conditions as before, but she never saw the Nine Gods Temple again.
Therefore, Yuan Qing and their experiences could only serve as a reference, not the correct answer.
“It’s a pity that Chiyu is still digesting.”
Who knows how much metal Chiyu swallowed in Dunyit Space.
Steel Cannon and it took the Moon Solitude Potion at the same time, but Steel Cannon’s effects disappeared long ago, while it’s still flashing and breathing.
Eating too much even disrupts its endocrine system.
Bright Crystal even suggested giving its nickname to it.
Facts prove that reliable people, once they become anxious, might do things even more unreliable than unreliable people.
It’s like a celestial crane spitting blood, or an ice silkworm breathing fire.
Who would have thought that Madam Chiyu would also have such a hilarious day.
Now, it’s finally back home, but it’s just lying in a bubble.
Although Chiyu’s understanding of the Nine Gods Temple was also ambiguous, the Nine Gods Temple was, after all, its former home; perhaps seeing Wangyue Lake would make it remember something?
“How about throwing it in the water to try? Maybe the Nine Gods Temple will sense its aura and appear on its own?”
Guangguang sincerely offered a bad idea.
Mingxi considered it and decided to accept its bad idea.
What if a blind cat stumbled upon a dead mouse?
