They didn't know how long they stayed in this quiet and dark underground palace. The dark environment made them forget the passage of time.
In the darkness, the two of them didn't know whether it was a long time or a short moment.
In the stone chamber, the lake water kept pouring in, and the two innocent hearts seemed to be getting closer to each other. Their fingers were intertwined, and their whole bodies were almost immersed in the lake water.
Water splashed everywhere, time passed endlessly, and although the endless darkness swallowed up everything in front of them, the fire of hope in their hearts was burning brightly.
The lake water poured in and filled half the height of the stone chamber. The two of them thought hard about how to open the mechanism, but still had no clue.
In the dark stone room, they could only feel the undulating water in front of their eyes, and the waves rolled up and rushed towards the two people. They had to hold each other, otherwise the buoyancy and impact of the lake would scatter them. Perhaps in this way they could
Feel the remaining comfort in each other's hearts.
"I'm sorry, it's my younger brother who has caused trouble to my older sister."
Ye Yinfeng's extremely guilty words came from the quiet stone room, with endless loneliness and sadness in his tone. He was not sad for himself, but for the peerless-looking Nangong Xianchen next to him. Such a country is as beautiful as a fairy.
He was somewhat unwilling to accept that she was in danger because of him.
"We still have a chance. The water in this stone chamber is not overflowing. I think this mechanism may be related to the lake. Perhaps the lake must overflow to a certain limit before the buoyancy or pressure of the water can open the mechanism."
The two intertwined hands were stained with water, whether from sweat or from the lake water rushing toward them.
The upper and lower parts of their bodies were already soaked in the lake water. The waves were constantly hitting them, and their clothes were covered with water drops.
"The noise outside has stopped, should we go out and take a look."
Outside the stone chamber, the roaring sound of collapse had stopped, and the entire underground palace was immersed in deathly silence.
The sound of water passes by like ruthless years, and the sound of the rushing lake water echoes the sound of two closely connected and pounding heartbeats. Who said darkness is synonymous with loneliness.
"No, all the roads outside are blocked. The big rocks will still keep moving under the buoyancy of the lake. In the water, it is even more dangerous. Our reaction speed is slower in the water. If we accidentally get hit by
It will be crushed by the moving rocks." Nangong Xianchen rejected the other party's proposal.
Ye Yinfeng felt depressed. The lofty ambitions he had just born were completely shattered by this reality. He could only blame himself for his lack of strength, otherwise he would not have let her get involved in danger for him.
For a moment, although the two of them intertwined their fingers, they looked at each other in silence. They could only see the twinkling light in each other's eyes.
The lake water poured in even faster, and the water in the stone chamber was almost up to their necks. The two clung to the stone wall, barely able to steady themselves, and the strong water pressure pushed their chests
There was a dull moment, and their breathing became heavier.
The road outside the stone room was like a shrewd hunter setting up perfect traps one after another. Inside the stone room, the water was overflowing higher and higher, but the small pebble mechanism still did not make any movement.
Ye Yinfeng felt that he could not help but tighten his grip in his hand. His heart trembled inexplicably. At this moment, a hint of coldness came from the delicate hand, and then the hand trembled slightly.
The lake water pouring into the stone chamber became more and more full, and a chill spread from the lake water, and the icy coldness rushed straight towards the boy and girl.
At this time, there was a chill in the stone room, causing the two people to shiver constantly, and their clothes had already been soaked in the cold and biting water. At first, they didn't feel anything, but as time went by, it continued to invade
The chill that came rushed towards the two of them like a sharp blade.
The jade hands in his hands were shaking more and more violently, and then Nangong Xianchen's body also started to tremble slightly.
The delicate body of the beautiful woman next to him trembled slightly, and Ye Yinfeng, who was keen, felt extremely heartache, a burning sensation like a piercing heart.
"Sister, what's wrong with you?" He couldn't help but ask with concern. In the dark stone room, his anxious and flashing eyes couldn't eliminate the coldness radiating from the body of the lady beside him.
Nangong Xianchen didn't answer, as if she was enduring some kind of severe pain. She didn't seem to want the other person to know the pain that suddenly hit her.
An extremely cold feeling of ice came from Yiren's delicate body, and her slender hands that kept trembling became colder and colder.
Ye Yinfeng was anxious, and an idea flashed in his mind, and he quickly transferred Taiqing Qi from his palm to her delicate hand.
In his Dantian, the extremely strong Taiqing Qi was like a circling giant dragon, just as he circulated the Qi throughout his body.
The lake water in the stone chamber suddenly seemed to be boiling, waves were rising and falling, and the rolling waves were filled with layers of white air, but these Ye Yinfeng could not see them.
Nangong Xianchen felt a warmth like the spring sun coming from her hands, and couldn't help but feel her beautiful eyes. The spring sun-like energy spread throughout her body like a warm current in an instant, and her
As soon as the biting chill in the body encountered this warm current, they fled away one after another, and were finally completely swallowed up by the warm current.
Ye Yinfeng didn't know the situation of the beautiful woman beside him, but he still kept pouring the Taiqing Qi into her. He also didn't know that just when he was pouring the Qi from his palm into that delicate hand, the lake in the stone chamber
The white mist-like smoke became thicker.
But at this moment, Nangong Xianchen, whose body was as warm as the sun, watched carefully. She did not expect that such a thing would happen. Her beautiful eyes stared unblinkingly at the lake filled with smoke.
While Ye Yinfeng was injecting the true energy into Nangong Xianchen's body, he was constantly running the Taiqing pure energy, turning it into giant dragons that kept walking around his body. One Great Zhou Tianhou, two Great Zhou Tianhou,??
?????.
He strangely felt that his true energy seemed to be purer and stronger, but the true energy he injected into the beautiful woman next to him could only account for a very small part of the true energy in his body.
He didn't notice at all that the smoke from the boiling lake in the stone chamber slowly gathered around his body, and finally penetrated completely into his body.
He just felt that his cultivation realm seemed to have reached a limit, and this limit seemed to be broken like a layer of tissue paper, and he could break through to the innate realm.
Being multitasking, he couldn't help but feel puzzled. He didn't understand why, because no matter how hard he tried to use his true energy to sprint towards the limit, which was as easy to break as a thin piece of paper, he couldn't sprint past it. And that
The limit of Tao is as immovable as a rock.
"That's enough, I'm fine. You can collect your inner strength."
Nangong Xianchen's voice suddenly came to his ears. Although his tone was tired, it was also full of joy.
After listening to the soft words of the sweetheart next to him, he withdrew the inner energy that was injected into the palm of her hand.
At this time, Ye Yinfeng felt that the energy in his body was so pure and strong that he could glimpse the realm of one energy transforming into three pure states. This made him feel happy, and his self-confidence also improved a lot.
Such a predicament was also taken lightly by him. Ever since his family was destroyed, he had never narrowly escaped death. After he was targeted by assassins from the Assassin's Sky Alliance, he had never been on the verge of life or death.
Perhaps due to the increase in self-confidence, his mood has also become more open, and it has not yet reached the moment of complete despair.
Thinking of the inexplicable shivers of the beautiful woman next to him just now, he was about to ask, but unexpectedly, a wave hit the two people and rushed towards them. The two of them accidentally choked on the lake water.
The slightest surprise that the two of them had just risen was covered up by the oncoming lake water. The lake water in the stone chamber roared like a gushing water. The two people gradually rose up due to the buoyancy of the lake water, and reached the top of the stone chamber.
top.
At this time, Nangong Xianchen scanned the room and found a slightly convex small round stone on the top of the stone room. Could this be the location of the mechanism in the stone room?
Her exquisite thoughts did not escape Ye Yinfeng's perception. Such a subtle and fascinating discovery made the two of them even more surprised.
He raised his eyes and looked towards the place where Nangong Xianchen had just looked. In the haze, he also discovered the slightly convex small round room. He couldn't help but be overjoyed, let go of the slender hand, and swam across the lake by himself.
Floating on the water, he could reach the pebble with his hand. He felt happy and reached out to press the pebble.
Nangong Xianchen saw his actions, but her heart trembled inexplicably, and a fierce crisis suddenly surged in her heart. She was about to speak to stop him, but it was already too late.
Ye Yinfeng stretched out his hand and pushed down the small round stone. With a strong pressure, the small round stone was easily pressed into the stone wall on the top of the stone chamber.
After the small pebble sank into the stone wall, a low roar suddenly sounded.
The door of the stone chamber slowly closed, and suddenly the stone chamber became airtight, and no water from the lake poured in.
Then there was another rumbling sound, and Ye Yinfeng was horrified to find that the stone wall above his head was slowly falling downwards. Although the speed was slower, he could still clearly feel the pressure coming from him.
.
There was a panicked splashing sound, and Ye Yinfeng swam to Nangong Xianchen's side.
The two hands were grasped together again. Maybe they felt that it had become a habit to hold both hands in this secret palace, or maybe it was the two people who held each other's hands tightly in this dark and quiet stone room.
We can comfort each other in this helpless situation.
Nangong Xianchen also clearly saw the slowly falling stone wall. In the darkness, her pale face overflowed with a trace of holy light.
However, Ye Yinfeng, who was holding the beautiful hand next to him, did not have that kind of fear in his heart. He was just guarding the fairy-like Nangong Xianchen calmly. At this time, his heart was still and his mind was empty.
The stone wall above their heads pressed down hard, and they were almost at the water's surface. Only their heads were exposed and pressed against the slowly falling stone wall.
Slowly, the stone wall reached the surface of the water, and the two of them had to sink into the water at this critical moment.
Nangong Xianchen suddenly thought of the round stone under the corner of the stone wall. The two obscure small round stones protruding in the stone room were not accidental. There must be something fishy in them.
The two of them were completely submerged in the lake in the stone chamber. At this moment, the stone wall above the stone chamber was slowly falling down. The pressure in the water, coupled with the slowly falling stone wall above the stone chamber, two strong pressures directly pushed these two people.
A burst of blood surged under the pressure.
Nangong Xianchen pulled Ye Yinfeng and swam towards the bottom of the stone wall at a very fast speed, as agile as two fishes.
The two swam to the bottom of the stone chamber and continued to look for the raised pebble. They searched frantically for a while, but found nothing.
Ye Yinfeng let go of the other party's delicate hand and searched around at the bottom of the stone wall. Suddenly, he felt a heavy feeling in his heart. He had exhausted all his breath. The stone wall above his head was pressing down, making it impossible for him to stick his head out for air.
Nangong Xianchen's internal strength was higher than him. At this time, she had not yet reached the point where her body was exhausted. She didn't notice his condition at all. She was anxiously looking for the small pebble protruding from under the stone wall.
piece.
And just when Ye Yinfeng ran out of breath and felt suffocated, he found that the Taiqing Qi in his body was starting to circulate on its own. A stream of strong breath came from the "Yongquan Point" at the bottom of the soles of his feet, and instantly he was
It flowed all over his body, and it turned out that he could still breathe in the water. This discovery made him overjoyed, and he wanted to open his mouth to cheer, but he choked on a mouthful of lake water and the breath came out of his mouth.
Without the trouble of suffocation, Ye Yinfeng could not help but speed up swimming underwater after discovering the wonders of Taiqing Qi.
Finally, his hard work paid off, and he found the small raised round stone. At this time, Nangong Xianchen also looked for it, and he could only vaguely feel his figure in the water.
Ye Yinfeng grabbed the beautiful woman's delicate hands that kept sliding with both hands, and his meaning was self-evident.
At this moment, the stone wall at the top of the stone chamber has fallen to the bottom of the stone chamber, which is only as high as a person.
Holding his slender hand tightly, Ye Yinfeng suppressed the joy in his heart and pressed down on the small round stone with his left hand with all his strength.
Their hearts were beating nervously, and their hands clasped together were trembling slightly, hope was right in front of them.
Yiren's slender hands were as delicate as slippery, and even though the two of them were underwater, they still did not hinder the dreamlike feeling.
After pressing this button, the two of them suddenly felt heavy in their hearts.
