I also don’t know how to describe it.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Don’t know how to describe it?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shen Chongming frowned and was about to scold him, but was stopped by a glance from Shen Wenxing beside him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Patriarch, this little guy is probably scared out of his wits.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A cultivator said with a faint smile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Next to him, Shen Wenxing took the opportunity to take over the conversation and glanced at the frightened Xu Zhan: \"You were lucky to escape with your life today.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Alright, everyone go back to your own business. From now on, anyone who goes to the river without permission will be dealt with according to family rules!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Upon hearing this, many cultivators clasped their hands and then manipulated the wind to head towards Yunshui City.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Once everyone had left, Shen Wenxing glanced at Xu Zhan, who still seemed dazed, and said after some thought, \"Take him to the manor.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shen Chonghong clasped his hands, and the group immediately flew towards the city manor.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Inside the side room.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xu Zhan had already changed into a clean set of clothes and stood somewhat apprehensively amongst them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Tell me in detail everything you saw at the bottom of the river.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shen Wenxing picked up the teacup in front of him and took a sip, speaking in a low voice.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This little fellow must have seen something extraordinary at the bottom of the river. With many people earlier, he had stopped Shen Chongming from questioning him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Suppressing his inner fear, Xu Zhan organized his thoughts and respectfully clasped his hands:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"A few days ago, I saw a big tortoise in the river. This time, I secretly went out intending to see if the tortoise was still there.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Who would have thought that when diving underwater, I suddenly felt a pulling force.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Afterward, it seemed as if my body was dragged into a strange place.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"There was only a faint gray light around, and it seemed as if countless people were whispering noisily in my ears.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this point, fear once again flickered in his eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Obviously, the scene he had just witnessed at the bottom of the river had left a shadow in his heart.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing this, Shen Chongming picked up a teacup and poured him a cup of tea, handing it to him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Don’t rush. Take your time to speak.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xu Zhan took a trembling sip of tea and, after calming down, continued, \"My body was torn and pulled downward by that force. I don’t know how long it was, but then I vaguely saw a massive city emerging from the darkness below...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Patriarch, Elder Patriarch, I... I really saw a massive city!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"A city much bigger than Yunshui City!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sensing his words sounded absurd and fearing that Shen Chongming and the others wouldn’t believe him, Xu Zhan pressuredly spoke.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Inside the side room, Shen Wenxing and the others exchanged glances, understanding each other.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Unless this little fellow had hallucinations, the underwater city he spoke of might truly exist.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What did you see in the city?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shen Chonghong asked curiously.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xu Zhan shook his head slightly: \"The city was shrouded in a gray mist, and I... I vaguely saw some shadowy figures in a blur.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Then I was pushed out by a force.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The room fell silent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What Xu Zhan saw at the bottom of the river was due to some reason causing hallucinations, or whether they truly existed, was unknown to them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But regardless of the situation, it was proof enough that the Laishui River was far more complex than imagined.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Chongming, take him down. For now, let him stay on the mountain.\" Shen Wenxing spoke after some thought.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before the matter of the underwater city was clarified, they couldn’t let Xu Zhan leave.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>One reason was to keep the secret; the other was to protect his safety in case someone tried to glean information from him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xu Zhan himself understood this, gratefully clasping his hands towards Shen Wenxing before leaving with Shen Chongming.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Big brother, what are your thoughts?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After the two had left, Wei Qiuling slowly spoke.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shen Wenxing got up, pacing, and after some thought, looked at Shen Chonghong: \"Go and find Li’Er.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shen Li had two combat pets in her possession, the Golden Toad and the Silver Thread Centipede.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The task of investigating the bottom of the Laishui River should undoubtedly be entrusted to the Golden Toad.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the dead of night, a group once again arrived at the bank of the Laishui River.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shen Li, dressed in a white dress, took a look at the Laishui River in front of her and then spoke to the Golden Toad: \"Be careful after going in; I can sense that there is something peculiar about this river.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Golden Toad nodded its large head and immediately leaped into the river.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As time gradually passed, about a quarter of an hour later, a golden light suddenly emerged from the turbulent river.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Golden Toad landed, enveloped by a dense cold air, with a layer of purple-black frost visible to the naked eye condensing on its surface, which was quite bizarre!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It shook its body, the golden light on its surface flickering, dispelling the purple-black frost. After slowly adjusting itself, it seemed to improve.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"How was it?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shen Chongming asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Golden Toad hesitated slightly and then said: \"I didn’t see the city, but there’s something quite strange at the bottom of this river.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I sensed a Yin Qi even denser than in the extreme Yin places of the Southern Border, and indeed found traces of a large demon beast having stayed there.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Master, Patriarch.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"This river is so strange that it might be best not to get involved easily.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After finishing, the Golden Toad involuntarily burped, exhaling a breath of thick Yin and cold air, instantly lowering the surrounding temperature.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shen Chongming turned to look at his father beside him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Let’s do as the Golden Toad suggested.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Let’s not meddle with the river’s secrets.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After considering for a moment, Shen Wenxing made a decision, then turned and walked towards Yunshui City.\u003C\u002Fp>",1078,"2026-06-06T03:07:11.939Z",1,"novelbin.me","b446816f5c89f578d3412adb25efbe79a90a5e945968be63c4e2e2f3847e900e","crafting-an-immortal-race-with-daily-hexagrams-chapter-464","crafting-an-immortal-race-with-daily-hexagrams-chapter-462",587,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fcrafting-an-immortal-race-with-daily-hexagrams-cover.jpg"]
