Su Mu didn't expect that his subconscious behavior of saving people would directly leak out.
However, this is also good.
Originally, he came here just to join in the fun. Now that he has been noticed, it means that the other party must have something he wants.
So, he declined Su Jianzhong's request to go deep into the pond on his behalf, and followed Mao Jincheng to the shore.
The other party took out a crystal clear orb from his arms. There seemed to be a layer of radiance inside the bead, which was constantly surging like water waves.
This is a rare treasure - a water-proof bead, which can take people underwater. It is a good gadget.
However, the water-proof bead in Mao Jincheng's hand is considered the lowest level and can only carry one or two people.
It is said that there are even magic weapons that can envelop the entire cave and dive hundreds or even thousands of miles deep.
The two of them allowed themselves to be wrapped in bubbles generated by the water droplets when they met the water, and directly used the heavy weight pendant to slowly sink to the bottom of the pool.
Along the way, the two of them didn't say a word, each thinking in their minds.
Soon after, they finally dived to the bottom of the pool and saw a cave as tall as a person on one of the rocks.
"Master Su Xian, please!" Mao Jincheng still looked kind and cheerful, and it seemed that the relationship between the two was like good friends.
Su Mu glanced at the other party and took the first step, stepping directly into the cave.
It is strange to say that this cave is located at the bottom of a pool, surrounded by bone-chilling water. But once you walk in, the cave is dry and clean, with no signs of water pouring in. It is very suitable for opening up a spiritual cave.<
/p>
Moreover, there is a faint layer of light emitting from the depths of the cave. Although it is not exposed, it does not appear dim either.
Although he didn't know what kind of medicine the other party was selling in his gourd, at least Su Mu knew that this was not the moment for the two to break up.
However, he was vaguely aware that from the moment the other party found out, only one of them would survive.
It's just that Su Mu was a little curious about what kind of tricks the other party was hiding, and he actually thought he could defeat him.
With such doubts in mind, the two walked along the cave for some distance, and a huge cave appeared in front of them.
The cave looks bigger than a football field and is four to five feet high. The air circulates naturally, making people not feel bored.
Looking around, there are dense stone pillars standing in front of the mountain wall.
Even more ingeniously, there are several streams flowing out from beside the stone pillars, converging into a small pool.
In the pool, there are some small fish and shrimps swimming leisurely.
Su Mu took a deep breath. The concentration of spiritual energy here was actually much higher than on the ground. It was roughly the same as Mu Yao Island where the Su family was located.
If a spirit gathering array can be set up here, a first-order spiritual vein may be nurtured within a few years.
However, what shocked Su Mu the most was that there were two stone gates inlaid on a stone wall on the east side of the cave.
The stone gate looks extremely simple and old, and the spiritual energy in the cave is emanating from the pores.
Lingtan Water Mansion?
"What you are really planning is not the snake above, but this place!" Su Mu suddenly realized at this moment, he looked calm and unaffected by the battle that would follow.
"Originally, I thought that this time I could keep you Su family members here without anyone noticing. But I didn't expect that you actually learned the secret book that your ghost father brought back from here, and your skills are pretty good.
Look!"
Mao Jincheng did not directly answer Su Mu's questions. Instead, like an old friend, he told the past events of more than ten years ago.
At that time, because he was just an errand boy, he was given a water-proof bead by the Mao family monks and asked to guard the entrance of the cave. He just happened to survive and became the only survivor.
After he heard the noise inside and noticed something unusual, he waited until the noise subsided before he dared to run in and check out the situation.
Unexpectedly, all the Qi-training monks of the Mao family and the ancestors of the Su family who came in early were all killed on the spot, leaving no one alive.
Because he was too scared and his own strength was low, he just packed up all the loot in a hurry and ran away.
Later, he led several stewards of the Mao family to secretly come here several times. Unfortunately, they could only get here at most, and they were unable to do anything about the stone door. They tried all means and could not push it open.
In the next few years, they deduced based on the results of repeated tests over the years that perhaps only those who were in the late stage of Qi training could forcefully open it with brute force.
By chance, during this period of time, the dragon snake actually occupied the Black Dragon Pond.
The Mao family tried several times but were unable to hunt it down, so they could only continue to hide this secret.
If Su Mu had not successively eliminated low-level monsters in the nearby mountains and forests, making them mistakenly believe that the water palace here might be exposed, they would not have taken dangerous measures and wanted to trick the Su family again.
Unexpectedly, due to his covert actions, Su Mu exposed the secret of practicing Qi and Blood Martial Arts, and was caught red-handed.
I can only say that some things in the world have their own coincidences.
"So, how did you find out that I actually practiced the martial arts secrets I brought back from here?"
Su Mu thought that he had done everything perfectly and didn't even show his strength directly in front of others. How come he was suddenly discovered!
"Previously, when you and I were exploring the water palace here, we found two things in a secret room outside the stone gate. One was the martial arts secret book brought back by your ancestor, and the other was a Qi...
Blood Yuan Dan. Originally, these two items were a complete set. Later, I, a monk from the Mao family, disliked that the secret book was only about martial arts and body cultivation, so I chose Yuan Dan.
After all, this Yuan Dan looks like a secret treasure that can assist martial arts practice, and its practical value is naturally higher than that of secret books.
However, I think your current martial arts cultivation should have reached the stage of minor success."
After finishing speaking, Mao Jincheng patted his chest, and a Yuan Dan passed through his chest and appeared directly in his palm.
It looked quite agile. There was a layer of red light on the pill, which made Mao Jincheng glow red. If it hadn't been tightly clamped between his two fingers, this pill would have planned to fly towards Su Mu. "Since I got it, except for its supporting role every time I practice, it has been as motionless as a dead thing. Just when you flew to save people, when you used all the energy in your body
Blood, Yuan Dan actually senses it. If I hadn't already refined it and carried it with me for more than ten years, it would really be attracted to you."
After listening, Su Mu showed an expression of sudden realization.
He just said that this mysterious root method must have a means to assist practice, otherwise he would have to spend hundreds of years to achieve something famous.
If he could really live for more than hundreds of years, would he still need Tianlinggen at that time? He must have advanced to the golden elixir stage long ago.
As we all know, monks with Tianling roots have almost no bottlenecks before the Golden Core stage, but once they break through the Golden Core stage, the role of Tianling roots is not that great.
