Geng Shu blushed and said, "I never said I had any other ideas. I know you were only trying to help me just now."
"It was my fault for forgetting we were still underwater. I instinctively opened my mouth to speak, letting the lake water rush into my mouth and break through my qi gate."
"The water of Heavenly Dao Lake really is extraordinary, so fierce and overbearing. Thank goodness you helped me just now, or it might truly have taken my life."
They had not originally thought Heavenly Dao Lake was all that dangerous. After comprehending the secrets of the Heavenly Dao within it, they could even make its water serve them.
But now it seemed they had underestimated this place. Since it could make countless people tremble at the mere mention of it, it naturally had its own terrors.
Once the matter had been explained, neither of them dwelled on it any longer. Instead, they began examining their surroundings.
After all, they had now entered another space, and they had no idea where it was.
Neither of them acted rashly, though they sensed no danger here either.
"This place is truly miraculous. It looks as though some kind of screen has separated it from the surrounding water. Whoever created this place must have possessed an incredibly profound cultivation."
After looking around, Geng Shu could not help speaking, addressing Xu Tong as well.
Xu Tong said, "I don't think this place was created by anyone. Perhaps it formed naturally through the Heavenly Dao."
It was not that he doubted anyone in this world could be so powerful. Rather, he felt that if someone really had created this place, it should not have been so quiet.
There appeared to be no danger here, and neither of them sensed any threat.
