Chapter 199 - mountain-like pressure (1st update)
There were illusions of fresh flowers, the descent of the Fairy Palace, and the beauty of the Heavenly Mountain. There was even a strange fragrance floating about. It was as if the fairy lake had turned into a delicacy, tempting the taste buds.
It was incredible, but it actually happened.
“When I was hanging around outside the frontier, I heard the old man tell a story about the fairy lake, “Chu Zhongtian suddenly said.
Ye Sheng looked at him.
Chu Zhongtian said, “When the old man was young, he grew up in the grasslands. At that time, Great Qin was not the ruler of the world, but the later stage of the Dragon Dynasty. The suppression of the grasslands was not enough, so many geniuses from the grasslands went to the nine regions. Some were killed, some settled down, and some were unknown. Some were like the old man, making a name for themselves.”
Ye Sheng nodded. This was the history of several decades ago. In the late period of the Dragon dynasty, officials were corrupt, aristocratic families were rampant, and the land was annexed. The lives of the common people were very hard. When the world was in turmoil, there were naturally heroes who rose from the grass and drew their swords to swing at the world.
Qin I and King Ye made their fortunes at that time.
When the old man with the sword was famous, it was in the land of the nine prefectures. Most people thought that he was a person of the nine prefectures, but the truth was not like this. He grew up in the prairie.
“When the old man told me about the Fairy Lake, he told me that he had seen a fairy, “Chu Zhongtian said.
Ye Sheng said in surprise, “The fairy of the Fairy Lake seems to be from a long time ago,
right?”
Kun Yu nodded and said, “At least five thousand years old.”
“How could the old man with the sword have seen a person from five thousand years ago? Unless he entered the Fairy Lake and saw it here,”Ye Sheng guessed.
“It’s not the Fairy Lake, but a different place. The old man was very clear. He didn’t expect to meet a fairy there, and he didn’t expect that someone would live to this day.”Chu Zhongtian shook his head.
Ye sheng asked, “What place?”
Chu Zhongtian shook his head and said unhappily, “No matter how I asked, the old man wouldn’t tell me. He said that when my cultivation base is high in the future, I will naturally know. Nonsense.”
“These experts don’t have a rigid way of doing things, so there’s no need to pay attention to it. But I didn’t think that there would actually be someone who could live for five thousand years?”Ye Sheng was really shocked.
Five thousand years, what kind of concept was this?
Ye Sheng knew that Xiantian could live to three to five hundred years old. Jindan was estimated to be higher, but it definitely could not be more than a thousand years old.
As for the emptiness realm, they definitely could not live to five thousand years old. At most, they could live to two thousand years old.
Whether it was in history books, miscellaneous stories, biographies, or the mouth of storytellers, no one had lived up to five thousand years old.
This was equivalent to immortality.
Moreover, didn’t the fairy ascend?
The meaning of the sword-wielding old man was that he had seen it before, so it must be in this world.
The More Ye Sheng thought about it, the more strange he felt. There were many problems, as if there were too many secrets hidden under the surface of this world.
“I’m still too weak right now. When I have the strength in the future, I’ll definitely dig out these secrets, “Ye Sheng muttered.
Bang!
Right at this moment, the forbidden area above the fairy lake suddenly exploded. Tens of thousands of runes shot out, surging, and blossoming with light, flickering extremely intensely.
“It’s opened,”someone suddenly said excitedly.
The Fairy Lake had finally opened.
Everyone unconsciously approached it, wanting to be the first to enter and take a good seat.
The Fairy Lake would overflow with Dao Charm. It wasn’t divided equally among everyone, but rather, who had the ability and who absorbed the most.
Being close to the center would definitely be the best.
Layers of restrictions were disintegrating and slowly falling down, revealing a path.
The golden path spread out, and the Fairy Lake was right in front of them. The Clear Lake water emitted a strange fragrance, causing many people to be unable to remain calm.
“Charge! Take a good seat!”Many people shouted and charged straight into the lake.
Bang! But the faster they charged, the faster they fell.
As soon as these people entered the Fairy Lake, they felt a tremendous pressure on their bodies. They were caught off guard and fell to the ground, screaming in pain.
Yuan Ling watched coldly.
The Yin divine priest closed his eyes speechlessly.
Chang Dexinran shook her head and said, “There is a lot of pressure in the Fairy Lake. The higher the cultivation base, the heavier the pressure. Moreover, it is close to the center of the lake, so the pressure is even greater. You Can’t just rely on snatching to get to where you want to go.”
As soon as she said this, the expressions of many people changed. They sensed that something was wrong.
The dozen or so people who had rushed in first didn’t understand this rule. They were suppressed at the outermost area.
The pressure was so great that it was impossible for someone at the first sky of the connate realm to go far.
“If you don’t have the ability, then don’t go in.”The seventh prince was in a bad mood. He mocked and turned around to go in.
Boom!
The first step he took caused his body to go limp. He was about to fall, but fortunately, his cultivation wasn’t low and he persevered.
When he stepped into the Fairy Lake with one foot, the pressure increased, causing the seventh prince’s veins to bulge as he tried his best to resist.
But halfway through, the seventh Prince finally stopped. His entire body was soaked through. There was lake water, and there was also sweat. His face was flushed red, and his eyes were bloodshot.
“He’s only at the Ninth Heaven of the Connate Realm?”The people outside were dumbfounded. He was only halfway there, and he was still a great distance away from the central region.
Amidst the discussion, Yuan Ling took a step forward and entered the center.
When the pressure came, Yuan Ling’s expression did not change. He directly stepped into the center and waded through the water. His steps were calm, and he quickly reached the seventh Prince’s position.
Yuan Ling did not even look at the seventh prince. He withstood the pressure and surpassed him with a step. Then, under the seventh Prince’s incredulous gaze, he walked to the position next to the center.
The people outside looked on in astonishment.
“He’s actually so relaxed?”
“It’s not that he’s relaxed, it’s that he’s too strong.”
“Yuan Qi sect disciples are indeed not something that mortals like us can compare
to.”
“This is Yuan Qi sect’s third master. How can a small amount of pressure stop him?”
Many people looked on in admiration. There were also people who saw how relaxed Yuan Ling was and immediately went into the water to give it a try.
They saw that most people had just come into contact with the lake water and were already suffocated by the pressure.
Inside, the Yin divine priest walked in alone and passed the seventh prince, but he could not get close to the central area.
“If the Yang divine priest was still here, we could naturally enter the central area together. But now, I can’t. “The Yin divine priest felt indignant, but he could only accept it. He sat on the surface of the water and closed his eyes to cultivate,
unlike others, the powerful ones sat on the surface of the water. For example, Yuan Ling, divine priest Yin, Chang Dexinran, Min Yun, and so on..
The seventh prince could not do it. He lay in the water.
Soon, more than a thousand people went into the water. The vast fairy lake was full of people. Most of them were in the periphery. There were only a few people in the central region
Yuan Ling was the only person in the central region. “Brother Chu, are you going down?”Ye Sheng asked.
“I’m going now. I definitely can’t compete with you, but I can get close to the central area.”Chu Zhongtian was very confident in himself.
He resisted the pressure and walked through the water towards the central area. Finally, he stopped in front of Chang de Xinran.
Chu Zhongtian was the person closest to Yuan
Ling.
This change made many people’s faces change. Didn’t this mean that Chu Zhongtian’s talent, potential, and strength suppressed them?
Now, only Ye Sheng and Kun Yu were left on the shore.
Ye Sheng did not even look at Kun Yu. His gaze was fixed on where Yuan Ling was, and he walked down step by step.
Under everyone’s gaze, Ye Sheng walked into the area of Fairy Lake.
Bang!
A pressure that was like a mountain smashed down.
