That's right, it's a progress bar.

On the edge of the river bank, Xu Bai stood above, staring at the simple but huge building below, with excitement in his eyes.

Although the water here has dried up, it is still a little damp. Only the progress bar floating on the building made him feel unusually eye-catching.

The progress bar can't be activated just by relying on books. This can be seen from the first time he was in Fierce Tiger Stronghold.

Now that the clues are gone, he can only rely on Kong Xu to tell fortunes. It doesn't matter. The important thing is the new progress bar. This is the biggest gain for him.

The progress bar is in the water, maybe it has something to do with water. If he guessed correctly and it really has something to do with water, then Lin Yong may not have a good life next.

In the beginning, Lin Yong's so-called reliance was because he could move freely in the water. If Xu Bai went into the water, his combat effectiveness would be greatly reduced, so this is the capital of Lin Yong's arrogance.

But things are different now. If this progress bar can really comprehend water-related skills, the so-called arrogance capital will be gone.

At that time, Xu Bai can jump into the water and blow Lin Yong's head off.

Thinking of this, Xu Bai rubbed his hands, looked at the distance, and jumped directly from the edge of the river bank.

This height has absolutely no impact on his current strength.

As he jumped down, the whistling wind could be heard in his ears, and before long, he had landed firmly on the bottom of the river.

The bottom of the river was a little slippery, but it had no effect on Xu Bai. After he jumped into the river, Ye Family Head and the others looked at each other and followed Xu Bai to the dry river bottom.

Although they couldn't understand why Xu Bai jumped down, it was always right to follow them, so they jumped down without hesitation.

After Xu Bai came down, he walked directly towards the huge building. When he reached the edge of the building, he realized that he was still some distance away from the progress bar.

When viewed from a high place, the progress bar is above the building, and there is definitely nothing related to the progress bar on the edge, or even the progress bar is blocked.

Thinking of this, Xu Bai exerted his strength on his legs, and his body jumped high, like a soaring eagle, and landed steadily on the top of the building.

The progress bar appeared in front of me again, and Xu Bai, who was standing on the roof, walked over quickly without hesitation.

There is a gust of wind blowing around from time to time. After all, it is very deep here and there is no water. Plus, in the wilderness, wind is normal.

The wind blowing from time to time, mixed with the unique coldness of the river bottom, was like a bone-scratching steel knife passing through Xu Bai's body, but Xu Bai didn't notice it at all, and came in front of the progress bar step by step.

The golden progress bar was particularly dazzling. After crossing the golden progress bar, Xu Bai discovered that there were several strange patterns underneath the golden progress bar.

He couldn't understand what the pattern was, but that didn't mean Ye Zi couldn't understand it.

Ye Zi has been following Xu Bai. When she and Xu Bai came to the roof together and saw the words left on it, she couldn't help but utter a surprised voice. "Young master, it's a demon text."

Hearing this, Xu Bai turned to look at Ye Zi next to him and said, "What do these demonic writings mean?"

Humans have human writing, and monsters must also have monster writing. These are two principles that go hand in hand.

But he didn't know Xu Bai. After all, he had only been in this circle for a short time, so acquaintance would be a strange thing, so he was the one asking.

Ye Zi walked closer, carefully identified it for a while, and then said, "Diverting Water Altar."

When Xu Bai said this, he didn't react at all. It was the first time he heard it, but Kong Xu behind Xu Bai's face changed and he couldn't help shouting out.

"What, Diverting Water Altar?"

Xu Bai frowned and said, "What is this? Is it famous?"

Diverting Water Altar? Never heard of it.

Kong Xu came back to his senses and said, "I have heard of this name before. It is said that when the human race and the demon race were fighting, the demon race was beaten to pieces by the human race and was in panic all day long, so it was just a street rat at that time."

"The demon race used to rule this land, but with the gradual development of the human race, they have taken the initiative in this world. Anyone who is a demon race will find it unbearable, so this huge psychological gap gives them a serious revenge mentality."

"Some of the demon clan have the intention of dying together, so they set up Five Elements Demon Altar Formation, which is divided into five types: metal, wood, water, fire, and earth. If successful, the masters of the human race will be exterminated. It is really as easy as flipping a finger."

"And this Diverting Water Altar is one of them. He is just one of Five Elements Demon Altar Formation, but it has been destroyed. It seems that what we see now should be a fake."

Following Kong Xu's explanation, Xu Bai also understood what was happening now.

Fake?

Something to do with water?

It doesn't matter, as long as it has something to do with water, he is determined by this progress bar.

Xu Bai touched his chin, secretly thinking about what to do next.

There is still something to be said for whether the liver should be done right here or if this thing should be removed.

Before, when Xu Bai met Female Daoist Abbot, Female Daoist Abbot once left a palm print on the tree, and he got Cosmic Shift from it.

He didn't dig out the bark of the tree at that time, just to preserve the integrity of the progress bar.

After all, he has never tried whether the progress bar will disappear if he digs it out.

This is not something he needs to gamble with, and there is no need to gamble, so after thinking about it for a long time, Xu Bai still doesn't plan to take this thing away, but to keep it here.

"You guys should go back first, as long as I'm alone." Xu Bai said.

Everyone was stunned.

They are a little confused about what Xu Bai is thinking.

In this place, a fake was found, and there is indeed much to ponder.

The other party is a monster in the water. It just so happens that this place is related to water, and he created a fake.

It seems that the other party's actions will definitely not be trivial, but there is no need to stay here forever. Without clues, staying here is in vain.

But for the sake of talking about it, no one wanted to ask. After all, it is better not to know something than to know it. The less you know, the safer you will be.

Ye Zi is very well-behaved and sensible. She knew that the young master would not let her stay here, and she must have his thoughts, so she did not force her to stay.

Kong Xu asked, "Lord Xu, do you want to make a fortune now?"

Xu Bai nodded and said, "Let's do the calculation first. After the calculation, you can go directly. By the way, during this period of time, you still have to arrange for someone to bring me some food and drink."

Kong Xu agreed, and began to count the fortune-telling objects carefully.

This time instead of using a compass, a tube for drawing lots was taken out.

Xu Bai He couldn't understand what skills or subtleties there were in fortune-telling.

But since Kong Xu wanted to change the method, he must have his own ideas, so Xu Bai did not interfere.

There were many wooden lots in the lottery bucket. Kong Xu shook it for a while and dropped one of the lots to the ground. When he picked it up, his expression changed slightly.

"It's strange. It was a sign of great misfortune before, so why is it changing to a sign of good fortune now?" Kong Xu raised his hand and scratched his head, expressing his confusion.

To talk about this fortune-telling method, it is extremely complicated just from the perspective of hexagrams.

It's not like Kong Xu has never seen things turn from bad luck to bad luck.

After all, any small thing will cause huge changes, but the current situation is that the only ones that cause huge changes are the few monsters in front of them.

Apart from that, there is nothing else. Aren't these demonic texts simple? Kong Xu carefully looked at these special words in front of him, but after reading for a long time, he still found nothing. He even felt that they were very ordinary.

"Don't worry about the hexagrams anymore, what I want is clues." Xu Bai said.

A bad thing turns into a good thing? Others didn't understand the reason, but Xu Bai looked at the golden progress bar in front of him and already understood the meaning.

Judging from the situation, the content in the progress bar should not be much different from what he imagined. When the time comes, it will definitely be an excellent means to defeat the enemy.

Thinking of this, Xu Bai became more and more excited.

Kong Xu When Xu Bai said this, he also knew that it was his old habit. After all, as a fortune teller, he must have calculated good or bad luck at the first time, and fell into a situation of occupational disease.

He put away the lottery bucket again, and then he didn't take anything, just raised his index fingers.

There was a faint brilliance emerging on his body, and at the same time, fine beads of sweat broke out on his forehead. The temperature at this time was lower than usual. After all, he was under the river, but Kong Xu was performing fortune-telling, and the load on his body was increasing.

After about a stick of incense, Kong Xu opened his eyes and put his hands on the ground.

Faint rays of light intertwined on his hands, and finally converged into a word, which fell on the ground not far away.

--sly.

Just such a simple word, it was as if all Kong Xu's strength was taken away. Kong Xu stood up with the help of Old Sun, his face was pale.

"Lord Xu, I didn't see their specific location, but I calculated their ultimate goal, which is very similar to the word in front of me." Kong Xu said with a weak and pale face.

Xu Bai stared at the word "sly" and frowned deeper and deeper.

sly? Weird?

Or something else? It's just a trick word, and it's hard to associate it with anything else.

"Lord Xu, it's all because of my lack of talent and knowledge. They probably erased a lot of things when they left, but they left in a hurry and left some clues. However, these clues are not complete. I can only see this." Kong Xu said with shame.

Xu Bai said, "Don't blame yourself too much. It's good to be able to find some clues. Okay, you can go first. I have to think about it here."

If it were normal, he might still be stuck in a bottleneck. After all, he still needs to find other clues.

But things are different now. With the progress bar, he can finish the liver first, and he may not be able to achieve a qualitative breakthrough after finishing the liver.

If the underwater combat power can be improved, the opponent will have nowhere to hide.

At that time, he became reckless and searched everywhere along the river. He could always find the other party, and once found, Xu Bai would not be left alive.

"Yes!"

After everyone heard Xu Bai's instructions, they also understood, so they didn't stop here and turned around to leave.

"Master, if you need me to come over, just call me." Ye Zi said.

Xu Bai nodded. After they all left, he turned around and sat cross-legged on the roof, staring at the progress bar above.

The golden progress bar was growing slowly. He estimated that the grade of this progress bar should be high.

Everything has to be slowed down until he is done.

Time passes, gradually alternating, night replaces day, the noise quietly slips away, and silence covers the earth again.

Xu Bai, who was sitting by the river, just sat there quietly, looking at him non-stop, like an emotionless sculpture. The moonlight shone on his body, casting a layer of white light.

Fourth-Rank Puppet stood by quietly, everything was as usual.

Of course, everything is as usual only here at Xu Bai, at the bottom of the river far away from Xu Bai, there is a noise going on at the moment.

At the bottom of the river, there is an antique building.

The building is wrapped in a huge water bubble. From time to time, water bubbles sink from the river, exchanging the air inside.

This building is extremely vast, and there are hundreds of people standing in the building.

These people either have monsters wrapped around their waists or on their shoulders. In short, they are very scary, and they look like a group of monsters dancing around.

Lin Yong was sitting on a chair, his face full of anger. His right hand was clenched into a fist and placed on the armrest of the chair. At this moment, his state looked very gloomy, almost on the verge of getting angry.

He was very angry. Not long ago, some of his spies knew what Xu Bai was doing.

After all, what Xu Bai was going to do at that time must have been a big deal, so it was not difficult to know.

At that time, although he was unclear about Xu Bai's main purpose of collecting those things, he eventually ran away with everyone.

It's better to be cautious. The rabbit still has three burrows, so let's run away first.

But no matter what, he ran away again and must have felt very unhappy.

Wind Chime Prefecture Government Commander Zhao Yin saw Lin Yong's expression and said, "Those who achieve great things must not stick to small details. If you can't even bear this grievance, how can you achieve truly great things? How can you take revenge?"

The surrounding men were all silent. Apparently, they did not dare to speak at this moment.

On Zhao Yin's shoulder, there was a turtle lying down. The turtle's eyes were glowing with a cold light.

"Grieved?" Lin Yong turned his head sharply, as if he had found the source of his venting, and held his hands tighter, saying, "Do you think it's just a little grievance? That place was obviously going to be finished, and now we have to start over again. If we could drag all the people in LeShui Festival into the water, we could summon it out."

With that said, Lin Yong stood up, pointed at Zhao Yin's forehead, and said angrily, "Just because of you, you insist on asking me to deal with Xu Bai openly. I said you couldn't do this at the beginning."

While talking, Lin Yong put down his hand and walked back and forth.

Words came out of his mouth one after another. If Xu Bai heard it here, he would definitely sigh. Lin Yong's original plan was indeed very high.

"I told you not to have contact with him. How did those people in the last few places die? It's not like you don't know."

"As long as you don't have contact with him and do your own thing silently, after the thing is successful and you recruit that existence, he will definitely die."

"But you still want to find him, and you still want to find a way to assassinate him. Isn't this looking for death?"

There was a kind of anger towards his pig teammates in his tone of voice. Obviously, he felt that he had been cheated.

This is indeed the case. If Xu Bai had not been found, and there was not even a hint of news, Xu Bai would not have been able to follow these clues and reach them.

There won't even be any clues by then, they have already become it.

Zhao Yin The old god was sitting here, but after hearing Lin Yong's accusation, he also got angry. He took a few steps forward and grabbed Lin Yong's collar, with flames gushing out from his eyes.

"Do you think I want to do this? Summoning that existence you said can indeed make Xu Bai die for sure, but as for us, hundreds of us can't escape."

"Ask these people here, who is willing to do something like this and die together? Only you are willing, and none of us are willing!"

The subordinates originally had their heads lowered. After hearing what Zhao Yin said, a few couldn't help but tremble. Some even opened their mouths, wanting to agree with Zhao Yin's statement, but when the words reached their lips, they swallowed them alive.

Who wants to die if he can live? Who doesn't want to live well?

Only crazy people like Lin Yong would think of a way to die together, but they really don't want to.

Lin Yong was stunned for a moment, apparently unable to react due to the stern rebuke.

But he quickly reacted, grabbed Zhao Yin's collar with his backhand, and raised it in front of him in the same way.

"What the hell are you talking about?" Lin Yong no longer had the demeanor that a family leader should have, and cursed, "We are demon masters, descendants of demon masters. How did we fight against them back then? Have you forgotten! Ah? I'm scared to death now!"

By this time, Zhao Yin calmed down. He slapped Lin Yong's hand away, returned to the chair, crossed his legs, and his expression became extremely calm.

"Lin Yong, that was all in the past. Now that I can find a way to get rid of the emperor, this capable subordinate, I am nostalgic for my old love. There is no need to involve myself."

Lin Yong was stunned and didn't come back to his senses for a long time.

After a while, he sat down on the ground with a look of dejection on his face, looking very disappointed.

"Let me tell you the truth, when I was LeShui Festival, I didn't intend to let everyone die. I just wanted to drag Xu Bai into the water and kill him by taking advantage of his lack of underwater ability." Zhao Yin said slowly.

As if he thought it was not enough, he added another fire, which became the last straw that broke Lin Yong's body.

"You can ask these people whether they are willing to die generously, or whether they are willing to continue living. They only have one life, and they are not doing it for the so-called old love." Zhao Yin continued.

As he finished speaking, the people around him also raised their heads, and the men all took a step back.

Although no one spoke, the meaning was already obvious.

They don't want to die, they want to live!

To deal with Xu Bai, we just follow the trend. If there is no way to do it, we will not use the method of perish together that Lin Yong said.

Lin Yong turned around and looked around. When he saw the actions of his men, his eyes became more confused.

"Are you just going to give up?"

He couldn't understand why everything had changed drastically overnight? Zhao Yin stood up again, walked to Lin Yong, and said condescendingly, "Facts have proved that we have failed. Stop struggling. I will leave in a few days and take them with me. In this big world, there will always be a place for us to survive."

"Why don't you leave now?" Lin Yong raised his head. The confusion in his eyes was quietly disappearing, replaced by a clear understanding. "You want the remains of Diverting Water Altar."

Zhao Yin nodded and said, "You are right, you are the son of the altar leader Diverting Water Altar, so it will take me a few days to refine you and take out the remains. With it, we, the water demon masters, will live."

"You're dreaming!" Lin Yong clenched his fists and prepared to stand up to resist.

But before he could get up, the men behind him all took action, and all kinds of attacks came over him like an overwhelming force.

He is not Xu Bai. He does not have the strength to fight one against a hundred. He was seriously injured in an instant and his whole body was unable to move.

"You are simply treasonous. You are my Diverting Water Altar, and now you dare to do such a thing. If you die, how can you see those seniors!" Lin Yong only has one mouth to speak and roars.

Zhao Yin smiled and said, "After a person dies, there is nothing. Yes, it may become weird, but that has nothing to do with it anymore. I just want to live well now."

"Old Turtle, it's up to you."

On his shoulder, the cold old turtle retracted its limbs and head into its shell, jumped off his shoulder, and its body suddenly grew in size. In the blink of an eye, it had become half the size of a house.

A moment later, Lin Yong, who was lying on the ground, felt a suction force and was sucked into the turtle shell in a blink of an eye. The huge old turtle slowly rotated on the ground, and screams came from the turtle shell.

"Everyone." Zhao Yin looked at the men beside him and said, "As long as we wait a few days, everyone should stop causing trouble in these days. Xu Bai doesn't dare to go into the water. We don't want to mess with him. As long as I refine him, we will leave here.

With the Diverting Water Altar wreckage, wouldn't it be better if we can kill ordinary people, feed our monsters, and then use the wreckage to escape? "

No one dared to say anything, so they all nodded in agreement.

In this huge building, except for the screams of Lin Yong, there was no other sound.

Time gradually passed, and in the blink of an eye, several days had passed.

In the intercepted XunLe River, at this moment, Xu Bai is sitting on the roof, looking at the progress bar above seriously.

Fourth-Rank Puppet stood nearby, guarding solemnly and monotonously.

During this period of time, apart from eating and sleeping, Xu Bai has been working on the progress bar. Even eating and sleeping, he also spent time on the roof of this house.

He was waiting, waiting for the progress bar to be completed, waiting for the imaginary technique to appear, and then he would use this technique to kill.

In the past few days, Ye Zi came once again to deliver food to Xu Bai.

In normal times, Ye Zi would not have rushed over upon receiving orders from Xu Bai, but he came with news.

Bureau of Surveillance A Sizheng came. After learning about this incident, he didn't say anything. He just said that His Majesty would arrange for new officials to take office again.

This news had no effect on Xu Bai. Originally, Ye Zi didn't have to come over to explain it clearly to Xu Bai, but before Si Zheng left, he took out something and asked her to bring it to Xu Bai.

This is a piece of wood, about one meter high, with Xu Bai carved on it.

The carving was so lifelike that it looked like Xu Bai was printed on it. Ye Zi was surprised at that time. After asking, he learned that Si Zheng got it in the wild.

He didn't know what it was used for, but with the appearance of Xu Bai, Si Zheng thought about it and brought it over. Anyway, it was on the way, so it was handed over from Ye Zi to Xu Bai.

Xu Bai was particularly interested at that time. When he saw the wood carving, he was stunned because there was a progress bar on the wood carving, and watching the progress of the progress bar was a high-quality skill.

As for what this wood carving is and who made it, he doesn't know.

This made people feel very baffled. There was an extra progress bar inexplicably. Xu Bai himself was very happy, but when he thought about what was behind it, he felt that he couldn't be happy anymore.

After thinking about it, Xu Bai decided to ignore the wood carving for the time being and concentrate on the progress bar in front of him. After all, what he needed was water-related skills.

As for the wood carvings...

It won't move if you put it here. Although it is more than half a meter high, you can still keep it with you, so you don't have to worry about it falling.

After this period of hard work, Xu Bai finally filled up the progress bar in front of him.

Light blue text appeared in mid-air, gathered into a line of text, and appeared in front of Xu Bai.

[You observe Diverting Water Altar (imitation) and understand Water Adaptation Method.]

There was no new fusion situation this time, and after all, there were no associated skills.

Soon, the light blue text turned into messages and penetrated into Xu Bai's mind.

Xu Bai closed his eyes and digested all the information in his mind before opening his eyes again.

The latest properties appear before your eyes.

[Name: Xu Bai.]

[Realm: Third Rank Loose Cultivator.]

[Chess Saber Five Styles (Level 7): Full level.]

[Inverted Purple Firmament Gang Wind Yin Yang Melody (Level 7.5): Full level.]

[Returning Wind Flowing Snow (Level 5): Full level.]

[Movement Break Fourth Cycle (Level 6): Full level.]

[Cosmic Shift (Level 4): Full level.]

[Vajra Heart Demon Body (Level 4); full level.]

[Strengthening Kidney Gathering Art (Level 5): Full level.]

[Hundred Poisons True Explanation (Level 3): Full level.]

[Ingenious Craft Puppet Technique (Level 6): Full level.]

[Undying Body (disabled) (level 5): full level.]

[Water Adaptation Method (Level 5): Full level.]

[Comprehension: Full level.]

"Only the fifth level..." Xu Bai was slightly disappointed.

Human beings naturally move towards higher places, and so does their vision. In the past, he could be happy for a long time just by acquiring a low-level skill, but now level five is commonplace in front of him.

But that's fine, at least it's a skill, and it plays an important role for him.

Water Adaptation Method, as the name suggests, can adapt to water.

With this skill, he can breathe freely. Not only that, it also allows all his skills to play their due role.

Skills of level 5 and above can be fully effective underwater.

Those below the fifth level exert twice the power.

The key point lies behind. Skills below level five can exert twice the power, which means that his low-level skills have undergone qualitative changes.

It's right when you think about it. After all, it's only a fifth-level skill. It's already very good to be able to exert twice the power of those below the fifth level.

It's a pity that it can only be used in water. It would be really cool if it was on land.

Of course, Xu Bai still has other ideas.

"You can definitely do this in the future. When you encounter enemies, you can pull them into the water and fight them." Xu Bai touched his chin. With his clear thinking, he quickly came up with a new battle plan.

If you think about it carefully, this combat plan is quite perfect.

Do you want to experience my ability in its heyday? If so, just go to the water and have a battle with me.

Perfect!

Xu Bai stood up from the ground, clenched his fists hard, and his eyes shone with excitement.

He looked at the wood carvings aside. There was no progress bar for the wood carving, nor did he think about whose progress bar it belonged to, nor why it looked exactly like him.

These things are not the most important, the most important thing is...

Lin Yong.

Government order.

You're done.

The wood carving was tied behind Fourth-Rank Puppet with a rope and placed together with those Nameless Saber Scripture.

Xu Bai did not rush on his way immediately, but returned to the Ye Family with Fourth-Rank Puppet.

Give the package and wood carving to Ye Zi and ask her to take good care of it, and leave Fourth-Rank Puppet here to guard it.

Can Nameless Saber Scripture get wet? He didn't know that if it got damaged by water, he would really lose money.

After doing all this, Xu Bai did not let anyone else follow him. After all, these people did not have the ability to fight underwater.

He raised his feet and walked towards the XunLe River.

Ye Zi looked at Xu Bai's leaving figure, always feeling that someone was going to be unlucky.

XunLe River.

Zhao Yin is refining Lin Yong.

There is only one day left, and as long as there is one more day, he can refine Lin Yong and let the remains of Diverting Water Altar appear inside.

Lin Yong is not dead yet. As long as the remains of Diverting Water Altar are not refined, he will not die.

At this moment, Zhao Yin was not distracted. He even asked his subordinates to guard the door outside so as not to disturb him.

He could feel that Lin Yong was on the verge of collapse.

"I'm going to succeed." Zhao Yin thought to himself.

The more he thought about it, the more excited he became.

He seemed to have seen the future, waving to him, and his life would get better and better.

"Hurry up! As long as I refine it, I can escape. Who will care about Xu Bai?"

With this thought in mind, Zhao Yin couldn't help but speed up a bit more.

But at this moment, he suddenly heard something unusual.

The sound sounded like a fight, and it was in the water.

In the water?

"What's going on?" Zhao Yin was stunned, his face dull.
