326. Chapter 326: Mysterious Soul
And just when Long Xuan was disappointed, a sound came from behind.
Long Xuan's face changed, and he subconsciously darted to one side, only to see a silver snake covered in lightning brushing past him. After one attack failed, it drilled into the small lake in front and disappeared.
"There can actually be living things in such a place with dense lightning. It seems that this kind of creature is not afraid of being struck by lightning. Sure enough, even in the most dangerous places, there may be unknown creatures surviving."
Long Xuan didn't waste time on that thunder snake and continued to walk forward.
There were dense water puddles and lakes here. If someone else came here, it would be very troublesome to be ambushed by these creatures hidden in the water.
But he could see the progress in the water. As long as he paid attention to the back, these creatures in the water would not pose any threat to him.
Sure enough, as he went deeper, he encountered more and more various creatures.
Some big-eyed frogs could also spit lightning, and the lightning attack was extremely fast, making people impossible to guard against.
I believe that if someone else walked to this place, even if they were not hit by the lightning in the sky, they would be killed by various creatures covered in lightning.
Only Long Xuan could move unimpeded here.
Not long after, he finally walked to the very center of the Thunder Swamp, the place where the thunder was densest.
In this place, he had to change a position every ten seconds on average, otherwise he would be struck by the lightning in the sky; the frequency of lightning here was really too high.
However, the greater his expectation, the greater his disappointment.
He originally thought that there must be heaven-defying treasures at the very center of the Thunder Swamp, and his heart was full of expectation.
However, when he walked here, he found that there was nothing here. Except for some living things in each lake, from which he could get some beast materials after killing them, he didn't find anything valuable here.
Long Xuan, who was unwilling to give up, searched around for a while, and finally stood in front of a lake.
Looking at this calm and waveless lake surface, Long Xuan frowned slightly.
He stopped in front of this lake not because he found any treasure, but because he found that there were living things in the other lakes, but only this lake had none.
There must be a demon if something goes wrong; this lake might hide a huge secret.
This secret might be an opportunity, or it might be a greater danger.
He felt vigilant in his heart, took out a spirit medicine from the storage ring and threw it into the water, and then used soul force to pull it, making the spirit medicine sink rapidly.
However, before the spirit medicine sank a few meters, it had already been crushed into a thin line.
Long Xuan was shocked, couldn't help but take a few steps back, and slowly showed a solemn look.
At this time, he already knew what was going on with this lake; the density of the water in this lake was really too great.
According to his estimation, humans only needed to dive a few meters to be crushed into meat mud by the terrifying water pressure.
In this way, it was explained why there were no living things here; what kind of creature could survive under such terrifying water pressure.
However, being able to have such a large water pressure in such a shallow water area was simply not in line with common sense, and this was not a place with amazing gravity.
Long Xuan showed a thoughtful look.
"Nine-Yuan Heavy Water?"
Suddenly, this vocabulary popped up in his heart, and soon his eyes lit up, showing a look of surprise.
Since he prepared to include strange objects like heavenly water, heavenly wind, and heavenly earth into the body tempering plan, he had intentionally collected information in this regard.
Nine-Yuan Heavy Water was a kind of heavenly water with a very high ranking, ranking ninth on the Heavenly Water List.
The ability of Nine-Yuan Heavy Water was compression; this was a kind of heavenly water that could compress water to the extreme.
This heavenly water was just a drop of water, and its weight could reach ten thousand catties, or even heavier than a mountain.
Once it melted, just a drop of water could turn into a lake, or even a sea.
The characteristics of Nine-Yuan Heavy Water were heavy weight and high density, which was a bit similar to this lake.
So he suspected at this time that this lake might be turned into by Nine-Yuan Heavy Water.
Long Xuan's breathing became rapid.
There was indeed a heaven-defying treasure at the center of the Thunder Swamp, and it was not in vain that he had been busy for so long.
Nine-Yuan Heavy Water was really too useful to him; this was simply a body-tempering artifact, tailor-made for his Purgatory True Demon Art.
"You kid has some knowledge, actually being able to recognize at a glance that this is Nine-Yuan Heavy Water."
"However, you only guessed half of it; where is the real Nine-Yuan Heavy Water so weak."
"If this is the real Nine-Yuan Heavy Water, how could it be something that you, an Essence Refining Stage Gu cultivator, could subdue?"
"Before you even approached here, you would have already been killed by the Nine-Yuan Heavy Water that had given birth to spiritual wisdom."
Suddenly, an old voice sounded from the side, which startled him. Long Xuan hurriedly looked for the sound.
Seeing that the speaker was an old soul, this soul floated on the Nine-Yuan Heavy Water, using the Nine-Yuan Heavy Water to condense a tall human body to resist the thunder falling from the sky.
Soul bodies were most afraid of thunder. I believe that if there was no Nine-Yuan Heavy Water to protect his body, he would have already been struck to death by thunder eight hundred times.
"Who are you? Why come to such a place?"
Looking at this mysterious soul, Long Xuan showed a look of vigilance.
Looking at the progress, this person was undoubtedly a Gu King.
This Gu King soul body actually hid in this thunder place that was the greatest threat to the soul; either his brain was sick or his strength was amazing.
He was really scared by all kinds of mysterious souls; such existences were often one more insidious than the other, and one more difficult to deal with than the other.
And they would always want to find a shell to possess and be reborn. He was afraid that his flesh would be taken a fancy to by these mysterious souls.
The mysterious soul showed a bitter smile and sighed: "Who I am is not important to you, you can call me Shui Lao."
"As for why I came here, of course, it is to avoid being chased and killed by enemies, otherwise which soul body would dare to come to this place where thunder gathers, unless the brain has water."
"That is, the density of my One-Yuan Heavy Water is too great, which can disperse the thunder power to the greatest extent, otherwise, any soul body running here would have died long ago."
Hearing this, Long Xuan's heart sank. Listening to Shui Lao's meaning, this heavenly water was his; the Nine-Yuan Heavy Water was actually an object with an owner.
This was not easy to handle. He was determined to get this Nine-Yuan Heavy Water, whether it was for body tempering or for the Swallowing Heaven World Toad to increase its volume, these were the reasons he couldn't give up.
He concluded that heavenly water was an existence on the same level as a divine tree. Once he possessed heavenly water, the volume of the Swallowing Heaven World Toad would instantly become much larger again.
It just so happened that this Nine-Yuan Heavy Water was in the hands of a Gu King, and where did he have the courage to snatch things from a Gu King?
Long Xuan's eyes showed a thoughtful look, raised his head to look at the mysterious soul, and said again: "Listening to the senior's address to the Nine-Yuan Heavy Water just now as One-Yuan Heavy Water, is this not heavenly water?"
Shui Lao shook his head and smiled: "This is naturally heavenly water, but the information you learned is still limited."
"In the ancient times, Nine-Yuan Heavy Water was rampant, and I don't know how many human cultivators were drowned."
"A drop of Nine-Yuan Heavy Water can turn into a lake. Once it explodes instantly in the crowd, very few people can withstand the impact of such terrifying water flow."
"At that time, no one could contend with the power of Nine-Yuan Heavy Water."
"Finally, the human race paid countless casualties to suppress the Nine-Yuan Heavy Water."
"To divide its power, the ancients used heaven-reaching means to cut the Nine-Yuan Heavy Water into nine parts, thus forming nine kinds of heavy water from One-Yuan to Nine-Yuan."
"One-Yuan Heavy Water is the weakest, ranking at the very end of the Heavenly Water List, and Nine-Yuan Heavy Water is the strongest. Even if its power is divided, it still occupies the ninth position on the Heavenly Water List."
"At the same time, heavy water became the collective name for these nine kinds of heavenly water."
"That's why I was able to successfully subdue the One-Yuan Heavy Water with the mere power of a Gu King, otherwise, how could the Nine-Yuan Heavy Water in its prime state be something I, a Gu King, could subdue?"
"You are the only person who has been able to enter the Thunder Swamp in a hundred years, and I can only entrust you."
"I want to make a deal with you. Now I give you two choices: one is to kill the current head of the Shui Clan, Shui Wuqing, and then bring his head to see me."
"The second is for you to find me a shell, and this shell must be pure water attribute plus the Heavenly Water Body."
"No matter which of these two things you do, I will give you the water seed of the One-Yuan Heavy Water!"
Shui Lao looked at him with burning eyes, and his emotions were a bit excited.
Long Xuan's heart moved, sighing that this mysterious soul was indeed looking for a shell.
However, as long as it wasn't looking for his shell, he was relieved.
It's just that his requirements for the shell were really a bit high.
If it was looking for a pure water attribute genius or a Heavenly Water Body genius, although the difficulty was a bit high, it could always be found if he spent some time.
But letting these two conditions appear on the same person at the same time was no different from finding a needle in the ocean.
Geniuses who met these two requirements were probably rare to meet in ten thousand years; where could he find such geniuses for him?
Compared to searching the world for a pure water attribute Heavenly Water Body genius, I'm afraid the difficulty of killing the Shui Clan Head was even lower.
Long Xuan's eyes showed a thoughtful look; it was not difficult for him to guess that the current Shui Clan Head, Shui Wuqing, was undoubtedly the enemy who destroyed his flesh.
He was also chased and killed by Shui Clan Gu cultivators, so he had to hide in this place where Shui Clan Gu cultivators dared not enter easily.
And he called himself Shui Lao; could it be that his surname was Shui, and he also came from the Shui Clan.
Long Xuan immediately thought of the dog-blood drama of competing for the position of Head.
"Could it be that the senior failed to compete for the position of Shui Clan Head, and was chased and killed to this place by a competitor?" Long Xuan asked tentatively.
Hearing this, Shui Lao immediately broke his defense and scolded angrily: "Fart! What do you mean I competed with him for the position of Head? This position of Head is clearly mine!"
"The clan rules of the Shui Clan are that the strong are respected, and whoever is the strongest is the Head."
"I have One-Yuan Heavy Water on me, who can beat me of the same rank?"
"That despicable villain Shui Wuqing can't even hold up three moves from me!"
"I compete with him for the Head, is he worthy?"
"The position of Head is deservedly mine!"
Shui Lao glared angrily and roared loudly: "But he didn't know where he got the Two-Yuan Heavy Water, and then used the Two-Yuan Heavy Water to kill the previous Head, that is, his own father, and very easily framed it on me."
"Everyone knows that only I have heavy water, and I simply couldn't argue."
"I didn't even have a chance to explain, and was attacked by all the experts in the clan, broke my flesh, and had to run to this place to survive."
"The soul is most afraid of thunder power. Everyone thought that I would definitely die if I entered the Thunder Swamp, so they gave up chasing."
"Of course, they didn't dare to come in, including Shui Wuqing who also has heavy water."
"The power of Two-Yuan Heavy Water is simply not something he can control, so he cannot defeat me, and even less knows how to control heavy water to divide thunder."
"He also took it for granted that I would definitely die if I entered the Thunder Swamp."
"Hehe, this stupid pig doesn't even have the courage to enter the Thunder Swamp to take a look. Since he doesn't understand the truth of cutting the weeds and eliminating the roots, then I must let him know how heavy the price of leaving me is!"
Shui Lao clenched his fists, and his eyes were fierce. (End of chapter)
