Chapter 201: The Time Rings in the Spring Ravine, Falling Branches
There was clearly something in this pool, yet reaching a hand down, one could feel nothing at all; looking at it this way, it must be that Yunzhongjun had hidden the water of this pool somewhere else.
Lingxiang gazed at the Water Spirit Pearl in her hand, lost in thought for a long while, as if she had made up her mind, and began to condense Spirit Power into the Water Spirit Pearl.
Forget it, there is no other way anyway; I might as well treat a dead horse as if it were alive! Since Yunzhongjun hid the pool water, then I shall just fill this place up again!
Under the urging of Lingxiang's Spirit Power, the Water Spirit Pearl suddenly glowed with a lustrous blue light, and as it flickered incessantly, before long, water actually poured down like a waterfall, flowing into the deep pool.
It was just as Lingxiang had expected; the water pouring out from the Water Spirit Pearl was actually able to remain in the pool. It was only then that she discovered this deep pool was not entirely empty; right at the bottom of the pool where the Pure Spirit Water gathered, there was a stone pedestal. And as the Pure Spirit Water poured in, this stone pedestal slowly floated upward.
After half the pool was filled, one could clearly see what was in the center of the stone pedestal—it was actually a flower bed.
It was obvious now; surely the Penglai Jade Branch was meant to be planted in there, but since she could not currently execute the Cloud Treading Step, how could she reach it? Could it be that she had to swim over?
Lingxiang glanced behind her; in the dust, Long Qi and Liu Xia were locked in a struggle with Bai Wuchang, and Liu Xia had already used his hidden techniques, clearly having exhausted his full strength, while Banxia was taking advantage of the moment Bai Wuchang was distracted to rescue Lady Lu.
It was just that this Lady Lu was truly a troublesome matter!
Lingxiang stared at Lady Lu for a long while, and it was at this moment that Lady Lu suddenly raised her eyes to look at Lingxiang; the two of them stared at each other like this for a moment before Lingxiang turned her head away, muttering to herself: "This look seems to hold quite a bit of resentment toward me; I suppose Lady Lu blames my mother for the destruction of the Lu Family."
Wait, even so, how would she know who I am?
Lingxiang looked back at Lady Lu with suspicion, but Lady Lu did not look over again until she was rescued.
Enough, enough; the most urgent task is to escape first, and other matters can be discussed after entering Yunmeng Marsh!
The pool was already full, and when Lingxiang reached her hand in again, she could feel the touch of the water; she scooped up a handful, and it was actually filled with Spirit Qi. The stone pedestal in the center of the pool had also floated up, though it was still quite far away.
Lingxiang looked back once more and saw Bai Wuchang's sharp claws crushing Zhao Wuyang's sword to pieces; just as the claws were about to grab Zhao Wuyang, fortunately, Xinyi appeared in time to save him.
Forget it, the situation is now critical, and there is no time to worry about anything else.
Lingxiang channeled Spirit Power to her feet and leaped, executing the Cloud Treading Step; the moment she left the ground, a sharp pain shot through her foot, and after she landed on the stone pedestal in the pool, she immediately felt as if her ankle had shattered.
But at this moment, Lingxiang had no time to think; she had already heard Bai Wuchang's roar. Lingxiang endured the intense pain and crawled to the center of the stone pedestal, only to see that the flower bed enclosed by the stone was just like the roots of the Pengla Withered Tree she had seen at the Kunwu Sect—neither soil nor sand, looking like ice, yet feeling like a pile of rice in a grain shop when she reached her hand in.
"Not good! It's a Demon Aspect!"
Hearing Xinyi's loud shout, Lingxiang could not care about anything else; she thrust the Penglai branch directly into the flower bed and shouted loudly without looking back: "Hurry over!"
Although her luck was not great, she had always won every bet since she was a child; even though she did not know if it would be useful or not, she could only take the gamble!
Hearing Lingxiang's loud shout, everyone looked over immediately and was instantly stunned; even Bai Wuchang, who was about to manifest his Demon Aspect, was shocked by the scene before him.
In the center of the stone pedestal, a tree was growing rapidly, its trunk like jade, shimmering and verdant. Before long, the tree began to sprout, and the emerging leaves were like glazed glass. Once the leaves covered the branches, flower buds began to grow on the nodes, cluster upon cluster, like colorful lanterns.
When the last flower bloomed, the water in the pool suddenly lit up; the pool was no longer pitch black, and in its place was a sky.
It was almost night, but the sky in the lake was azure blue, with wisps of clouds drifting in the air, and flocks of strange-looking birds soaring through the clouds.
This is...
Yunmeng Fairyland!
Long Qi was stunned for a moment before suddenly coming to his senses, feeling a sense of foreboding in his heart. He looked at the stone pedestal in the lake and saw Lingxiang slumped on the pedestal beneath the Pengla Jade Tree.
Although the scene was as beautiful as a painting, Lingxiang's face was full of pain, and Long Qi knew she must have used her light-body technique again. Long Qi felt deeply self-reproachful and hurriedly shouted, leaping to fly to Lingxiang's side.
It was at this moment that Lingxiang flicked her fingers, and a hand made of water suddenly lunged out from the pool, grabbing Long Qi firmly and dragging him into the water.
"Don't worry about me! Get into the water quickly! Otherwise, it will be too late!" Lingxiang shouted.
Xinyi and Liu Xia were the first to react; Xinyi pulled Zhao Wuyang and went with Liu Xia to Banxia's side, grabbing her and Lady Lu, and they all jumped into the water together.
"Want to run? It's not that easy!"
Just as everyone leaped into the water, Bai Wuchang flew up, and at that moment, a Yellow Talisman flew over and struck him directly in the face.
It was Lingxiang's Breaking Demon Talisman!
As soon as Lingxiang threw the Breaking Demon Talisman, she rolled off the stone pedestal and fell into the pool. The moment Lingxiang hit the water, the Pure Spirit Water in the pool began to freeze, and the entire pool, under the radiance of the Pengla Jade Tree, formed a Dharma Array.
