Lake of Life

Biodata

Geography and Properties

• The lake is vast and fed by smaller tributaries, including an underground waterway 226.
• Its waters contain dense life force. The lake produces Life Origin Water, a rare resource that can restore youth to those nearing the end of their lifespan, rapidly heal critical injuries, and improve a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast’s chances of surviving a Thunder Tribulation 226 635.
• Like the Ice Fire Yin Yang Well, the Lake of Life naturally shields the presence of those within it 635.

Inhabitants and Control

• The lake’s innermost area was forbidden even to the Sky Azure Bull Python and Titan Giant Ape. Gu Yuena and the Fierce Beasts dwelt there, while the two Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beasts guarded its outskirts 104 227 289.
• After the Fierce Beasts emerged from seclusion, Di Tian proposed declaring the lake a forbidden zone and asserting their authority over the Star Dou Great Forest 352.
• Lin Xiao later took control of the lake and the position of Co-Lord of Soul Beasts from Gu Yuena 666. He appointed Bi Ji, whose life attribute suited the lake, to manage its surrounding territory as the Verdant Goddess 670.

Story Role

• Lin Xiao and Feng Yu sent a Ten Thousand Year Snow Lotus through an underground tributary into the lake. Di Tian subsequently forced Sky Dream Ice Silkworm to swallow it; the resulting transformation enabled the silkworm’s escape and helped prompt the Fierce Beasts to end their seclusion 226 227 352.
• Xiao Wu planted Blue Silver Grass seeds around the lake so Ah Yin could monitor activity there 306 336.
• Wang Qiu’er offered the Lake of Life to Lin Xiao as a dowry, bringing the contest over its control to a head 648 663 666.
