Chapter 526 Underwater
Look at the edge of the sword!
Nangongli’s place of retreat!
Who would have thought that there is a large formation hidden by the West Lake, and dozens of surrounding peaks can be moved freely.
Following my induction, a few of us ran all the way, and suddenly, I felt something was wrong!
"Wait!" I shouted and stopped.
The three of them also stopped with me, "What's wrong, kid?" Aotian asked.
"The sword intent seems to have moved over there." I pointed to the south and said. The feeling before was clearly in the east, so why did it go to the south again now?
I just kept looking ahead and didn't see the mountains moving. How could this happen?
"It seems that it is indeed a formation. Nangong Li's skills in this formation are not bad. Even I didn't notice the mountains moving." Aotian said.
Not only Aotian, it stands to reason that we can definitely feel the movement of such a large mountain range, but the fact is that we didn't find anything, the mountain range changed its previous position!
"Sure enough, it's not that simple!" After the elder brother said, he looked around and walked to the lake. I saw him reaching out to scoop up a handful of lake water, put it to his hand, smelled it, and drank the last sip.
After that, the eldest brother thought about it on the spot, and then jumped into the lake without saying anything!
"Hey!" The monk shouted quickly when he saw this scene.
"What's wrong? Don't worry, my eldest brother will be fine." I glanced at the monk and thought that my eldest brother was originally a water ghost, and going into the water was a common occurrence for him, so he would definitely be fine.
Unexpectedly, the monk was still a little uneasy, "I once heard from my disciples that no one has ever come back alive after going down to the West Lake."
Hearing the monk's words, I looked at him in surprise, and then looked at the calm West Lake. There was nothing special about the lake, but the elders of the Holy Sword Dao would not have made any mistakes.
Is there something else under the water that I can't see?
"Aotian, can you see anything?" I asked.
Aotian looked at it twice and finally shook his head.
He is practicing physical education and doesn't know much about anyone. The person here who knows the most about water is probably my eldest brother. But now that he has gone down, we can only wait on the side.
We were bored, so we just sat on the floor. Because I was worried about my elder brother, I couldn't say a word and looked at the lake from time to time.
The lake was still calm, and there was no movement below, as if Big Brother had never been down there.
"No, I want to go down and take a look!" After an hour, I finally couldn't sit still!
How could a person stay underwater for so long? Although there are too many things I have experienced now that cannot be explained by common sense, the monk's words just now gave me a bad feeling.
"Calm down. With Sun Zhongmou's strength, there are few people in the world who can hurt him. If something happens to him, even if you go down, you won't be able to help. You might as well wait and see here!" Aotian
Stopped me.
I was extremely anxious, but I had to admit that what he said was true.
About half an hour later, a whirlpool suddenly appeared on the water. The three of us were attracted by this. Then a water column suddenly appeared in the middle of the whirlpool. I saw the figure of my eldest brother standing on the water column!
"Brother!" I shouted excitedly!
The eldest brother glanced at me, then frowned and stared at the lake, not knowing what he was thinking.
When the water column subsided, the eldest brother jumped to the shore.
"How about it?"
The elder brother shook his head, "The water surface was originally calm, but not long after I entered it, a huge whirlpool suddenly appeared under the water, as if it wanted to lure me into the middle. I struggled for a long time before I could get out!"
As soon as I heard this, my heart dropped.
If even Big Brother doesn't notice what's under the water, then no one on our side can. Likewise, there must be something heart-stopping under the water.
The eldest brother's current cultivation level is comparable to that of Li Qiu Shui, but he is unable to detect the underwater secrets.
"This lake is indeed a large formation eye. Originally, I wanted to destroy the formation eye and then look at the sword's edge. Now it seems I can only find other ways." The eldest brother said.
I'm so worried. I know Han Xue is nearby, but I can't find her. How can I feel calm?
Any other way?
I tried again, but still couldn't reach it. Whenever I was about to reach that mountain peak, the feeling of sword intent suddenly changed direction.
"It's getting late, let's go take a rest first." Aotian said to us.
Everyone is really tired during this time, so I can't force them to help, so I can only agree.
After that, we went to find an inn nearby and rented two rooms. Naturally, we disguised ourselves well before arriving so that it would not be easy for others to see us.
I stayed with the monk. As soon as the monk came in, he sat down on the chair and started drinking heavily. His previous appearance of a flowery monk appeared again.
"Hey, monk, how much do you know about the Holy Sword Way?" I kicked him, kicked him up from his position, and then sat on it myself.
This guy has no eyesight at all. After all, I am also the leader of a sect. He is sitting while I am standing. Is this appropriate?
The monk didn't care much, he was holding his wine flask with a satisfied look on his face.
"I don't know much about the sect, monk. After all, you also know that in addition to the Holy Sword Dao, I also have a master, the Xiaoyao Ancient Buddha of Buddhism. Strictly speaking, I can only be regarded as half of the Holy Sword Dao."
"But I know, monk, that every month the sect will select a group of disciples to practice in the snow-capped mountains, and they will never come out again. The sect's explanation is that those people were secretly trained by the sect, and they will only become disciples after they have completed their studies."
Return to the sect." The monk recalled.
These he was talking about should be the group of disciples who were sacrificed. For the sake of the safety of the sect, Xue Ao asked his disciples to sacrifice, which led to the decline of the holy swordsmen's talents, and finally the sect was exterminated by Buddhism.
"Sect Master, do you think if we gather that group of disciples, they will be a big help to us in the future?" The monk thought for a while and suddenly said to me.
I shook my head helplessly, but in the end I still didn't have the heart to tell him this fact.
I don’t know what happened to the Buddhist condor in the Holy Sword Way, but he is a strong man who can compete with Aotian!
"Sect Master, do you feel that something is wrong with your elder brother?" We stayed in the room for a long time, and the monk suddenly said to me.
"Huh?" I frowned and looked at the monk.
This is not because I am angry, but because I have felt this way before, but my belief in my elder brother made me keep telling myself that this was just an illusion, and I did not expect that monks also feel this way.
So, brother is really hiding something from us?
"Sect Master, your eldest brother is already very good at water. There are strong people in Tianyuan Continent who can freely enter the water, but they all need some means to support them. Your eldest brother stayed in the water for an hour without any preparation. On the mainland
In terms of water properties, he ranks among the top five among humans!" The monk seemed to be afraid that I wouldn't believe it, and deliberately patted his chest and said to me.
I nodded and motioned for him to continue. I already knew that my eldest brother is a water ghost. It’s not surprising that he has good water properties.
But what the monk said next shocked me.
"Your elder brother has been underwater for so long. It's impossible that he didn't discover anything. According to my observation, he should be an extremely proud person. What he said about encountering a whirlpool after entering the water should be true, but he did not resist.
Instead, he allowed the whirlpool to pull him to where he wanted to go."
"Otherwise, with his strength, how could a mere underwater whirlpool trap him for so long? Besides, your eldest brother is extremely arrogant and doesn't seem like the kind of person who would back down just because of a whirlpool." The monk said to me.
I nodded. His analysis coincided with mine, but I believed that my eldest brother would not harm me. He must have seen something that he didn't want me to see.
When I think of this, I feel unhappy!
