Xia Yan and the Jade Green Luan stood on the grassy shore of a lake.
The hundred-meter-wide lake shimmered under the light, with the occasional fish leaping from the surface. Not far away was a seven- or eight-meter-wide river, scattered with fallen leaves and small dead branches as it flowed into the lake.
This was the nearest small lake.
This would do.
Xia Yan summoned the Demon Suppressing Pagoda. A vast suction force surged forth, and the lake surface suddenly churned as an endless stream of water was drawn into the Demon Suppressing Pagoda.

Water cascaded down like a waterfall, directly onto the Blazing Apricot Delicate below. Receiving Xia Yan's mental message, it released a terrifying heat. Crimson ultimate fire abruptly surged skyward.
Before the lake water even touched the flames, it had already boiled, turning into thick white, high-temperature vapor that spread outward.
Gradually replenishing the moisture in the air.
After five minutes, Xia Yan stopped. The air within the Sixth-Layer Space was still unbearably dry, but he could not continue. If the humidity became too high, living creatures would be unable to dissipate heat and would be steamed alive by their own body temperature.
He was only adding a little moisture.
Xia Yan had been choosing all along. Now, he looked toward a spot within the Sixth-Layer Space, only twenty li from the center. There was no magma there, only a charred-black expanse. The terrain within a one-kilometer radius was depressed, with its deepest point reaching five meters.
It could hold at least four million tons of water.
It could serve as a source of drinking water.
