Chapter 3 Fright at the Bottom of the Lake

After Chen Nan returned to the inn from Shenfeng Academy, he quickly packed up his things and left, and then checked into another inn.

The day after he left, Dongfang Phoenix and the little princess led six or seven beautiful girls into the inn. These people surrounded the room where Chen Nan originally lived and then used magic, lightning, and wind blades.

The flames... raged wildly, and the house collapsed in an instant.

The owner and waiters of the inn were trembling with fear. They didn't know why these students from Kamikaze Academy were so angry.

When Dongfang Phoenix discovered that there was no one in the house, her face was livid with anger. She asked the little princess: "Little trouble, didn't you say he lives here?"

Hearing the words "Little Trouble", the little princess said unhappily: "Don't call me Little Trouble, I hate this name. He did live here before. Who knew that this guy was so cunning and escaped first."

"

The girls next to them all smiled after hearing this. The little princess's name was so unique, and she was already famous. One girl said: "Little trouble, are you afraid that your brother will be beaten? Send him a message in advance.

Did you let him escape?"

The little princess screamed: "That scum is not my brother. I hate that guy so much, otherwise I wouldn't come with Sister Phoenix to deal with him. Also, if I don't call you Little Trouble, you can call me Little Sister."

"

To the little princess's chagrin, all the girls laughed. One of the girls laughed and said, "You're only sixteen and you want to be a sister? Haha, I think Little Trouble sounds nice. Besides, everyone in the college knows your name. I guess."

It can’t be changed.”

The girls did not find Chen Nan, so they had no choice but to compensate the innkeeper with a certain amount of gold coins and evacuate.

In the afternoon of that day, when Chen Nan came here to "observe the enemy's situation", after seeing the scene in front of him, he couldn't help wiping away a cold sweat and said: "Women are really scary. Fortunately, I have the foresight."

The bright moon is in the sky, and the clear light is spreading.

The watery moonlight makes the entire Sin City hazy, and it looks like it is covered with a veil from a distance.

It was late at night, but Chen Nan didn't feel sleepy at all. He pushed the door open and jumped lightly onto the roof. He spread the mat on the tiles, then lay on it and looked up at the moonlit sky.

On this full-moon night, he had a vague feeling of uneasiness in his heart. He had always believed in his spiritual sense. At first, he thought that something dangerous would happen, but as time went by, he denied that kind of spiritual sense.

guess.

Rather than saying it was a feeling of uneasiness, it was better to say it was a tremor from the soul. Ruoyouruowujian Chennan felt that something was calling him. It was that call that resonated with his soul, making him feel out of place.

As time went by, the call became stronger and stronger, and he was surprised to find that his body actually emitted a faint light and exuded a sacred aura.

This was definitely not the golden true energy that came out of his body when his family's mysterious power was running. Instead, it was similar to the faint holy light exuding from the hand bones of ancient gods. This holy light made Chen Nan feel extremely comfortable, but he

It became increasingly difficult for my heart to calm down.

At this time, he had clearly sensed the call. It came from the north of the city, from the direction of the ruins of the God War!

Chen Nan felt confused in his heart. His body was emitting a mysterious "holy light". His intuition told him that this holy light was exactly the same as the light emitted by the divine bones. He vaguely felt that this seemed to be the same as his resurrection from the ancient cemetery of gods and demons.

And out related.

An hour passed. After a fierce struggle in Chen Nan's heart, he couldn't bear it anymore. He stood up and rushed towards the north of the city.

When he began to practice the Xuan Gong passed down from his family, he found that the "holy light" on his body disappeared, but the vague call still lingered in his heart.

After leaving the city, Chen Nan walked into the mountains and forests. The mountains were very quiet at this time, with only the occasional chirping of night birds, the gentle breeze blowing in the night, and the fragrance of flowers and plants filling the forest.

He listened carefully to the call and walked quickly through the mountains. Birds and beasts living in the forest were frightened away by him from time to time.

Half an hour later, Chen Nan arrived at the ruins of the God War, where he slowed down. Originally this place was inaccessible, but recently due to rumors of the God's Hand, there are cultivators in and out every day within a radius of thirty miles, and it is only at night that this place is the busiest.

peaceful.

Chen Nan climbed over the peaks broken by the ancient gods and came to the dry lake valley. The river had changed its course and the original lake had turned into a trough.

There are no tall trees in the valley, only some low shrubs and flowers. The call that made Chen Nan feel uneasy originated from here. He stood motionless in the middle of the valley, letting go of his body and mind, integrating himself into this world, holy

The brilliance emanated from his body again.

The moonlight is like water, everything is silent, and a luminous figure stands alone and silently in the middle of the valley.

At this moment, Chen Nan's heart was extremely empty. With his eyes closed, he could feel the plants and trees nearby. He saw two birds sleeping with their necks crossed in a tree, and he saw a mountain rat emerging from a hole.

He poked his head out and saw a wild fox watching him secretly and vigilantly...

Although he closed his eyes, the nearby scenery was really transmitted into his mind. In the extreme silence, he merged into the world, and everything nearby could be sensed by him.

Finally, he finally discovered the source of the call, which suddenly came from under his feet. A faint wave came from the ground. In a daze, he seemed to hear a woman's cry: "I... want... to... see... the sky again...

…day……"

Chen Nan suddenly woke up with a start. When he carefully captured the ethereal sound, there was no sound at all. Only the faint fluctuations were transmitted into his heart.

"Underground...that fluctuation actually comes from underground!" He lowered his head and muttered to himself.

Chen Nan pulled out the long knife from behind and concentrated all his strength on the blade. In the hazy moonlight, the long knife glowed with dazzling light, as bright as the blazing sun, and he struck the ground with all his strength.

"boom"

There was a loud noise, sand and stones flew up, and a huge crack appeared in the center of the valley. Suddenly, a clear spring rushed out of the crack more than two meters high, and clear water splashed from the air to the ground.

Chen Nan was startled and hurriedly backed away, but what surprised him even more was what was behind him.

The huge cracks he made with his long knife were slowly expanding, and the nearby soil was sinking downwards. It seemed like an earthquake had occurred in the valley, and the entire surface began to shake. Chen Nan was shocked and ran out of the valley quickly.

He stood on the edge of the valley, looking at the changes in the valley in surprise. The entire valley was slowly breaking up, and crisscrossing cracks appeared in the valley. The broken soil layers continued to collapse downward, and spring water continued to gush out from those cracks.

surface.

After careful observation, Chen Nan discovered that there was actually a broken rock layer under the surface, and five feet below the broken rock layer was an underground lake. The power of his sword opened a gap in the underground lake, causing the water below to surge up, causing nearby

The faulted rock layers and soil collapsed, causing a chain reaction that completely shattered and collapsed the faulted rock layers above the underground lake.

In just a few moments, the dry lake valley turned into a lake, and the water level continued to grow, causing the birds and animals living nearby to flee in panic.

Chen Nan looked at the diverted river not far away and it became clear that the underground lake must have been formed thousands of years after the river was diverted, and that the river must have a secret channel connected to the underground lake.

Half an hour later, the water level in the lake stopped rising and slowly calmed down. A beautiful small lake appeared in the original valley. The lake was as flat as a mirror, the moonlight was like water, and the breeze mixed with the fragrance of wild flowers gently blew.

At this moment, the mountains and forests are quiet and beautiful.

Chen Nan felt excited, the call came from the bottom of the lake!

The deepest part of the lake exuded a ball of holy light, and he could vaguely see that the faint light seemed to come from a piece of white jade. He knew that it was the left hand of the ancient god that many practitioners had been searching for for many days, and it must be the one who called him here.

The mysterious treasure in the left hand of the ancient god!

Chen Nan couldn't tell how deep the small lake was. He didn't know if he could sneak to the bottom of the lake safely. The mysterious object in the hands of the ancient god was indeed attractive, but the dark bottom of the lake made him feel a hint of danger, which made him uncomfortable.

Dare to jump into the lake easily.

He threw a huge boulder into the lake. The boulder made large splashes and ripples, but there was no movement in the lake. He was still a little worried and thought of catching a mountain beast nearby and throwing it into the lake, but the lake just now

The huge sound when the rock formations in the valley sank had already scared away the nearby birds and beasts, and he turned around without any gain.

Looking at the dark bottom of the lake, Chen Nan hesitated for a moment. Finally, he took off his coat, took off his long knife and placed it on the ground. He jumped into the lake with two gleaming daggers in his hands.

The water in the lake was extremely cold and the light in the lake was very dark. He could only vaguely see the scenery within three or four feet. Fortunately, the divine bones at the bottom of the lake were emitting a faint light, giving him a clear target.

Chen Nan worked hard to dive, and soon he came to the junction of the original lake valley and the underground lake. The water was six feet deep here. Although he felt some pressure, his body was not seriously injured.

After entering the underground lake, he vaguely saw the nearby scenery. It turned out to be an underground cave, which was filled with stalactites, stalagmites, stone pillars, stone flowers, stone mantles, stone waterfalls and other karst accumulations, which were various, magnificent and magical.

Chen Nan's heart skipped a beat here. He felt that danger was approaching him, but the water was so dark and hazy that it was difficult to detect anything unusual.

The ancient god's broken left hand did not sink to the bottom of the lake, but hung on a stone flower more than ten feet high from the bottom of the lake. The wave that led him out of the City of Sin came from there.

Chen Nan struggled to dive down. When he was less than half a foot away from the ancient god's hand bone, he felt a chill in his body. With the light emitted by the god's bone, he could clearly see the scene at the bottom of the lake.

The rock formations that originally fell from the lake valley were covered with water snakes on top of the soil and rocks, and more water snakes swam outward from the soil and rocks. Countless water snakes danced at the bottom of the lake, as densely packed as tangled grass.

The scene in the water made Chen Nan frightened. Although he knew that water snakes would not attack people, the consequences if he accidentally swam into a group of water snakes would be unimaginable.

The cave was about five feet deep, and when he carefully swam to the stone flower, he already felt great pressure.

The sacred bones emit a faint light, looking a bit weird at the bottom of the dark lake. The white jade hand bones are wrapped with a thin thread as transparent as silk, and on the thin thread is a thumb-sized jade Ruyi, which is crystal clear and radiant.

It is eye-catching, and you can tell at a glance that it is a top-quality jade. There is no trace of carving on it, as if it was made entirely from nature.

Chen Nan gently took out the jade Ruyi from the sacred bone, and then hung it around his neck. He could not suppress the excitement in his heart. The mysterious jade that the two ancient gods risked their lives to fight for actually fell into his hands.

superior.

He wanted to take away the divine bones together, but he thought that everyone knew that the ancient god's relic was with it. If he was found to have found this divine bone, he would face an endless pursuit, so he decided not to

Move it.

At this moment, a strong uneasy feeling hit his heart, and he felt a huge sense of crisis.

At this moment, Chen Nan noticed a fluctuation in the lake water above his head. He hurriedly looked up and saw a water monster that looked like a fish but not a fish, not a snake but a snake, attacking him quickly like an arrow. The water monster was about one foot long.

It had a single horn on its head, a snake's body and a fish's tail, and was biting at him with its bloody mouth.

Chen Nan hurriedly dodged to the side, and the water monster's sharp sword-like teeth passed him by, but its snake-like body suddenly wrapped around his waist.

This was his first time fighting in the water, but this did not affect his performance. The dagger in his left hand stabbed at the turning water monster's mouth, and the dagger in his right hand slashed hard at the snake body wrapped around him.

Blood surged, and Chen Nan's two daggers caused fatal injuries to the water monster. The dagger in his left hand penetrated deeply into the upper jaw of the water monster, and the dagger in his right hand cut off its body. The blood and water made his vision blurry for a while. The water monster

After a violent twist, it sank to the bottom of the lake and was submerged by the water snake in the blink of an eye.

He didn't dare to stop and hurried up the river. But at this moment, a water monster appeared again behind a cluster of stalactites nearby. This water monster was as thin as a bucket and was three feet long. It looked much more ferocious than the one just now. In the darkness

The eyes of the water monster at the bottom of the lake are as bright as lights, but they look very cold.

Chen Nan was not impressed by the rash action and stared at it coldly with two daggers in hand.

This water monster did not rush towards him, but opened its huge mouth and spit out a beam of lightning. Although he avoided the lightning, the water was conductive everywhere, and the powerful current made his whole body numb. In an instant, he lost his ability to move.

Ability.

The water monster twisted its snake body, and its long tail struck Chen Nan hard, pulling him out three feet horizontally in the water. Blood poured out of his mouth, and he was unable to use his skills to resist it.

, this violent whipping caused him serious internal injuries.

The severe pain in his chest and abdomen restored consciousness to his paralyzed body. Just as he was about to move, he suddenly found four or five more water monsters over three feet long swimming toward him from a distance.

Chen Nan felt his scalp numb. One such water monster was already too difficult for him to deal with. There were so many of them that there was simply no hope of defeating them.

Blood overflowed from his mouth, and his body remained motionless. Several water monsters smelled the smell of blood and rushed towards him quickly. They all opened their huge bloody mouths and exposed their white teeth, which was extremely scary.

When the bloody mouths of several water monsters were about to touch Chen Nan's body, he sank quickly and swung out two daggers like lightning. Blood surged and the two water monsters were seriously injured.

At this moment, he felt that the powerful electric current once again made him lose the ability to move, and at the same time, a giant tail hit him hard. His body quickly fell to the bottom of the lake, looking at the grass-like water snake at the bottom of the lake, Chen Nan

Scared to death.

A sharp pain restored his body's consciousness again. More than a dozen water snakes had bitten him. Chen Nan felt numbness at the place where he was bitten, and this numb feeling was rapidly spreading to all parts of his body.

He knew that he was poisoned, so he vomited blood while forcibly operating the Xuan Gong. A layer of faint golden light came out from Chen Nan's body, shaking off the water snake that bit him, but then countless water snakes squirmed and moved around.

He was buried underneath.

At this time, both his arms and the space between his hands and feet were covered with water snakes, and Chen Nan couldn't help but feel a layer of pimples on his body. Although they were blocked by the body's protective energy, they could no longer hurt him, but there was still a feeling in his heart.

Waves of cold air.

Through the dense water snakes, Chen Nan saw several water monsters biting the two injured water monsters. Blood surged. At the same time, more than a dozen water monsters swam there, with more than a dozen pairs of strange eyes as bright as lights in the darkness.

The cold electricity was so intense that it made people palpitate.

In just a short moment, the two injured and bleeding water monsters were torn apart and eaten by their companions, not even a single bone was left. Chen Nan felt a chill when he saw it. This is really a world where the jungle eats the strong, and weakness means death.

.

Although the water monsters kept looking at the bottom of the lake, they had no choice but to retreat when faced with the densely packed tens of thousands of squirming water snakes.

After a long time, the bottom of the lake returned to calm. Chen Nan's family's mysterious skills continued to circulate. He had expelled the toxins from his body, but the serious internal injuries could not be healed in a short time. He slowly bent his knees and squatted on the ground.

, then he kicked his feet hard on the ground, and his body rushed upwards like a golden arrow.

More than a dozen water monsters felt the strong fluctuations in the water and quickly chased him. Chen Nan was secretly anxious. He aimed two daggers at his shoulders, preparing to sting himself before losing consciousness and use the pain to regain consciousness.

At the same time, he pushed his Xuan Gong to its limit, filling the surface of his body with body-protecting energy.

A powerful electric current hit him again. The moment Chen Nan sensed the electric current, he stabbed the dagger gently into his shoulder. The electric current was not as violent as he imagined. He knew that the body-protecting energy emitted by his family's Xuan Gong was rising.

It has had a certain effect.

Due to the pain in his shoulders and the effect of the body-protecting Qi, Chen Nan did not lose the ability to move this time, but the water monster was much faster than him. Several water monsters caught up with him in the blink of an eye, opening their huge mouths to bite him.

go.

Chen Nan had no choice but to turn around and fight several water monsters at close range. Two sword energies were inspired by two daggers and pierced the bodies of the two water monsters, causing their blood to surge. But he was also attacked by a water monster.

The giant tail gave him a strong blow, making him feel like his muscles and bones were about to break.

Fortunately, he was pulled upwards, and the powerful force made him rush out of the underground lake quickly. The injured water monster was once again besieged by his companions, and in the blink of an eye, no bones and flesh were left.

When Chen Nan was only ten feet away from the lake, the water monster was following him again. He threw the two daggers out with all his strength, and he vaguely saw blood surging. The water monster seemed to know that he was about to escape from the lake, and this time he would not

Then attack the injured companion and rush towards him together.

At this moment of life and death, Chen Nan mobilized every ounce of power in his body. At this time, his body's golden light flourished, like a blazing flame. The lake water around him boiled, and his body rushed forward like a golden arrow.

He got out of the water and fell to the shore not far away.

The moment his body touched the ground, Chen Nan collapsed, without any strength left in his body. He gasped for air, greedily breathing in the fresh air.

Normally, he could stay underwater for half a day without taking a breath, but today, in a life-or-death situation, he was repeatedly injured, and coupled with constant strenuous exercise, he exhausted his energy prematurely and almost choked on the water.

After a long time, Chen Nan finally regained his breath and stood up unsteadily.

"There is such a perverted water monster at the bottom of the lake. If I hadn't escaped quickly, I might have become an immortal this time!"

The lake has returned to calm, the divine bones are emitting a faint light on the dark bottom of the lake, and the water monsters have long since disappeared.

"XXXX... actually caused me to harm myself..." Chen Nan cursed while bandaging the wounds on his shoulders.

He rested for a while by the lake, then picked up the coat and long knife on the ground and rushed towards Sin City.
