Entering the Lake

The blazing sun in the sky slanted lower and lower, while on the other side of the horizon, a crescent moon slowly appeared.

Buzz!

At the very moment the sun and moon met, one could clearly feel the Heaven and Earth Yuan Power deep within Mysterious Spirit Mountain suddenly surge violently. The earth trembled slightly, and ripples spread across the calm lake, with shimmering light constantly emanating from the small island in the center of the lake.

"The Life Mysterious Spirit Fruit is about to appear!" Looking at this scene, Ying Huanhuan hurriedly whispered, her voice slightly hurried and joyful.

The teacher definitely won't need this item; it will probably end up being used by her and Qing Tan together.

Rumble!

The trembling of the island in the lake grew more and more violent, and the light emanating from the ground grew stronger and stronger. Then, suddenly, cracks spread out from the island, and then, a large tree, its entire body emerald green like jade, slowly broke through the ground!

The lush green trees, like newborn babies, grow from the ground, their branches and leaves spreading out, radiating rings of green light, exuding the power of life.

These light patterns coalesced on the tree trunk at an astonishing speed, with four particularly dazzling points of light among them.

Buzz!

As the light intensified, it gradually became tangible, and the four points where the light gathered materialized directly into four emerald green fruits!

"Four Life Mysterious Spirit Fruit!" Ying Huanhuan looked at the six emerald green fruits that had taken shape on the tree, her beautiful eyes filled with even greater joy.

"Is this the Life Mysterious Spirit Fruit? Such a Heaven and Earth Spiritual Object should have a guardian Magical Beast, right? Why didn't it take it away sooner?" Qing Tan stared at the large tree that had burst forth from the ground on the island in the middle of the lake and asked.

"This Life Xuan Spirit Tree can condense nine Life Mysterious Spirit Fruits, and it is only when the ninth fruit appears that it is truly ripe. The guardian Magical Beast has probably been waiting for that, but unfortunately, it probably won't live to see that day," Ying Huanhuan explained.

After explaining, she looked at Xiao Ming and said, "Master, this fruit..."

"Okay, okay, I understand."

Xiao Ming patted Ying Huanhuan and Qing Tan's little heads, but turned his gaze to the lake on the Mysterious Spirit Mountain. In the depths of the clear lake, there seemed to be a faint touch of bright red.

With a light stomp of his foot, a towering wave surged in the center of the lake, and a huge black shadow emerged from the water. This behemoth broke through the surface of the water, its shadow covering a radius of hundreds of feet, and an overwhelming aura of ferocity spread out.

This is a giant demonic beast with three enormous heads, somewhat resembling a dragon, yet extremely ferocious. It is the overlord of Mysterious Spirit Mountain, a Three-Headed Demonic Flood Dragon at the Lesser Life Xuan Realm Minor Completion.

Its massive body, hundreds of feet long, was covered in scarlet scales that resembled the hardest armor. As its enormous body writhed, it released waves of extremely astonishing power.

Each of the three enormous and ferocious, snake-like beast heads has a sharp, single horn that flashes with a chilling luster, as if it possesses a sharpness capable of tearing through space.

The Three-Headed Demonic Flood Dragon's scarlet and ferocious snake eyes were fixed on Xiao Ming and his companions around the lake. Its gaping maw was slightly open, and an extremely cold growl echoed out.

"Who dares to disturb me! How dare you lay a finger on my things, a bunch of ignorant fools... Ah, spare me, spare my life!"

The once majestic Three-Headed Demonic Flood Dragon suddenly changed its tune, trembling with extreme fear, as it had just sensed an extremely terrifying Aura.

With a slight gesture, Xiao Ming unleashed a massive storm of Yuan Power into the location of the Life Mysterious Spirit Fruit. The once dormant Life Xuan Spirit Tree suddenly trembled again, and Xiao Ming collected the four fruits, distributing them equally between Qing Tan and Ying Huanhuan.

After doing all this, he looked at the Three-Headed Demonic Flood Dragon.

"Keep an eye on these two, or you know what will happen."

"Yes, sir."

Seeing that Xiao Ming hadn't crushed him with a single finger for his earlier offense, the Three-Headed Demonic Flood Dragon was somewhat excited. The Life Mysterious Spirit Fruit was gone, but as long as he was alive, that was enough. Besides, there were still five Profound Spirit Fruits that hadn't fully formed yet; once they were, they would all be his.

He didn't care whether the Three-Headed Demonic Flood Dragon was lying or not, since he had a backup plan with the two women anyway.

After giving them a command, Xiao Ming went to the lakeside and jumped in.

From the outside, the lake appears to be enormous, but once you venture deeper into it, you'll discover that the area shown above is merely the tip of the iceberg. Standing within it, looking into the depths, the profound darkness resembles the gaping maw of a demon, sending chills down your spine.

There was no life in this lake at all; the vast lake was devoid of even a small fish, which was clearly strange.

Xiao Ming came specifically because of this strange phenomenon.

In an instant, Xiao Ming arrived at the bottom of the lake, where he saw a crimson expanse. This so-called crimson was actually a vast expanse of magma stretching to the horizon.

Fiery red lava spread out on the lake bottom like a carpet of fire, bubbling up and scorching the surrounding icy lake water.

Xiao Ming easily passed through the lava and arrived at the actual lake bottom. It was an empty plaza with no lava or lake water. Fiery red rocks were neatly laid out on it, exuding an ancient charm in its simplicity.

At the very center of the plaza is a stone pool, about several tens of feet in size, filled with fiery red lava. In the center of the lava, emerald green light spots are constantly emerging.

Emerald green light condensed about a foot above the magma, and a palm-sized ball of emerald green liquid floated in mid-air, emanating an indescribably rich wave of vitality, making the surrounding space vibrant with life.

The Earth Core Spiritual Paste is a rare and precious Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures that greatly benefits cultivation in the Life Xuan Realm. It is extremely valuable to powerful cultivators who Life Xuan Realm Great Completion. Xiao Ming naturally has no use for it, but he can leave it as a disciple.

He walked straight toward the Earth Core Spiritual Paste's core. Suddenly, beams of light lit up around the stone pool, and a huge array took shape on the ground. Then, a crimson beam of light shot out, tearing through space and slamming heavily into Xiao Ming. The latter did not stop walking, and upon closer inspection, there was not a tear in the hem of his clothes.

After putting away the Earth Core Spiritual Paste, Xiao Ming took a step and entered the rock pool, arriving at another space.

"This is the Demon Suppressing Prison? Interesting..."

What appeared before Xiao Ming Xiao Ming's eyes was a vast and endless Dark Space. This space was like a deep night sky, and at a glance, darkness seeped into his bones.

In that darkness, enormous rivers of lava, each ten thousand feet long, flowed slowly through this Dark Space. These rivers of lava crisscrossed and penetrated the darkness, forming an extremely vast and complex network.

Standing high above, Xiao Ming looked down at the towering rivers of lava below, which resembled giant lava dragons lying prostrate in the Dark Space, silent and vast.

This is an extremely important location on the Tian Xuan Continent, the Demon Suppressing Prison, which suppresses the powerful Demonic Race demons who were once captured by the Symbol Ancestor's forces. Over the long years, the Symbol Ancestor's forces have been trying to annihilate these tenacious Otherworldly Demons.

Within the Tian Xuan Continent, there exist three Demon Suppressing Prison. One of them is suppressed by the reincarnated Master of Life and Death, whose reincarnation is still in the Great Yan Dynasty. The Demon Suppressing Prison he suppressed has now mostly been broken. The other two are suppressed by the other two of the Eight Ancient Masters, the Flame Master and the Master of Darkness, and so far, there have been no errors.

Judging from its style, the Demon Suppressing Prison before us was clearly created by the Flame Master.

Ahem, I'll catch up on what I missed yesterday when I have time. I closed my eyes and slept for another hour today (д`).
