As he walked to the side, Shi Ling couldn't help but look up at the precipice above the waterfall. At that place, a large amount of lightning was gathering, and Shi Ling could clearly feel the frightening power of all the lightning gathering together.
Shi Ling was thinking if he had used the lightning bolt to deal with him when he was fighting Qian Hee, would he have been dead by now?
Thinking about that, Shi Ling could not help but laugh bitterly and whispered, "In the end, I'm still too weak. If I were a little stronger, I wouldn't need to fear that kind of thing. How could those water monsters harm me?"
With that, Shi Ling bit his lower lip, and then immediately stepped on the ground. He then leaped into the air and headed towards the waterfall, and with the Floral Pupil's eyesight, Shi Ling could clearly see the cave behind the waterfall. Thus, when Shi Ling passed through the waterfall, he steadily landed in the cave behind the waterfall.
Shi Ling stood at the entrance of the cave, and after looking around for a while, he looked into the depths of the cave. Although the surrounding light was very dim, to Shi Ling who had a Floral Pupil, darkness was nothing to him, so when Shi Ling walked forward for a few hundred meters, he saw a small lake inside the cave.
As he walked, his eyes locked onto a small island in the middle of the lake. The island was only the size of a house, but there were all kinds of plants growing on it, including the Luo Hua that Shi Ling was looking for, it was completely purple, and it even gave off a faint fragrance. As long as he ate it, all of the smell on his body would be covered up.
When Shi Ling saw the Luo Chang Flower, he could not help but laugh. After wasting so much effort, he finally found this thing. How could he not be happy? Therefore, they walked towards the island on the lake.
However, before Shi Ling could get within ten meters of the lake, Shi Ling once again saw that on the surface of the lake, water pillars shot up into the sky and exploded with several splashes. Countless water droplets splashed out and fell on the ground, but soon after, the ground emitted a faint white smoke, like the water landing on a hot iron furnace.
When Shi Ling saw this, his pupils slightly contracted as he whispered, "Corrosion?"
That's right, Shi Ling clearly saw that when the water droplets fell on the ground, they actually corroded it! To be able to corrode the floor of the cave, one could tell how corrosive the lake water was.
Under the gaze of the Floral Pupil, he could see that it was covered with a layer of faint blue light. This was an energy body that could not be seen by the cultivator, but Shi Ling could see it with the help of the Floral Pupil, but after Shi Ling saw the blue light halo, sweat started to roll down his forehead. He muttered: "Weak water? "I never thought that this lake was actually made of weak water. It seems that I have really underestimated this cave."
When Shi Ling said this, his eyes revealed a strong sense of interest. He immediately took a step forward, but his body immediately exploded forward. The speed of his movement was so fast that it could no longer be seen with the naked eye.
It seemed that because Shi Ling was near, the lake's surface exploded again and again. Countless water droplets splashed out like a rain of arrows, but Shi Ling was able to dodge them all with his sharp agility.
Soon, Shi Ling arrived at the edge of the lake. Immediately, he fiercely stepped forward, and with a sudden burst of force, his body was sent flying like a cannonball. Shi Ling, at this moment, completely wanted to rush to the island in one go because he wanted to save a lot of time. After all, he did not know how long Wu Tie's nail would be able to sustain the lightning attack in the outside world.
Therefore, when Shi Ling rushed to the surface of the water, he extended his hand out as if he was trying to pluck a flower from the water.
However, it was as if the heavens were deliberately going against Shi Ling. Just as Shi Ling's hand was about to touch the edge of a Luo Chang Flower, the water lake below him suddenly exploded. The extremely corrosive water lake suddenly formed a huge bowl shaped protection barrier that protected the entire island.
And because Shi Ling didn't have enough time to retract his hand, he came into direct contact with the protective barrier made of weak water.
It made Shi Ling's body tremble, and he immediately retreated backwards. At the same time, he also took out a piece of cloth from the Heart Ring s and wiped his hands, as if he wanted to wipe off the weak water on them.
When Shi Ling landed back by the lake, he saw that his hands had turned red and even the outer layer of skin had fallen off. The piece of cloth that was used to wipe the water had turned into slag.
When Shi Ling saw this, he gritted his teeth and looked towards the island in the middle of the lake. At this moment, he was completely surrounded by weak water and had no way to get in.
At the same time, outside of the cave, on the precipice of the waterfall, Qian Hee was still standing next to the nails. At the same time, outside of the cave, on the precipice of the waterfall, Qian Hee was still standing next to the nails, with a serious expression on his face as he looked at the sky.
Every day, the lightning web suddenly enveloped the surroundings, giving off a feeling as if they were in a thundercloud.
As the lightning increased and its power increased, the amount of power that the nail needed to bear also increased. At the beginning, the nail was relatively stable and there was no violent reaction. However, as time passed, it began to tremble and cracks began to appear on its surface.
When Qian Hee saw this, he took a deep breath and looked down at the waterfall. He muttered to himself, "Hopefully you can get out as soon as possible. The longer it takes, the more I can't even guarantee what will happen."
With that, Qian Hee pressed his palm against the nail. Immediately, his mana seeped into the nail and he quickly saw that the cracks on the nail were slowly healing.
Then, at this moment, a loud roar came over: "Qian Hee, it's you!"
When Qian Hee heard the discordant voice, he turned his head to look. In the end, he saw the situation that he was most unwilling to see, where his enemy, the other Mountain and River List expert Wang Lan, was charging towards him.
After a while, Wang Lan had already closed in on Qian Hee, but he did not dare to get too close. He stopped when he was about a hundred meters away from Qian Hee, not because Wang Lan was afraid of Qian Hee, but because the nail containing the terrifying lightning energy beside Qian Hee made Wang Lan feel a little afraid.
The dozens of people behind Wang Lan were all attracted by Qian Hee's nail. As veterans of Spirit Sword Sect, they could naturally see that the reason the surrounding lightning and thunder had gathered at this place was because of this nail. From this, they could indirectly see how powerful this nail was, if they were able to get their hands on it, then it would undoubtedly be like adding wings to a tiger for themselves.
So, many people had greedy expressions on their faces. Qian Hee was quite calm and had an indifferent expression, as if he was not the one being surrounded and the one being attacked was not him.
At this moment, Qian Hee said in a deep voice, "Wang Lan, I don't want to be entangled with you anymore. I'll give you a quarter of an hour to leave my sight, I can pretend I didn't see you. Otherwise, I will make you regret being here!"
Saying that, the corner of Qian Hee's mouth rose slightly. His smile was as evil as a big pervert seeing a naked beauty.
Hearing this, Wang Lan scoffed. No matter what, he could still be considered a outer sect expert, if he was scared by Qian Hee's words, then he wouldn't have to appear and stay in his mother's embrace forever to drink milk.
So, Wang Lan took out his mana from his Storage Ring, it was a double-edged sword, with two blades on the left and right of the sword hilt, Wang Lan held the sword in one hand and looked at Qian Hee coldly while whispering: "Anyone can boast, but when you have the ability, see the real thing in your hands!"
Following that, he saw a deep sword mark appear on the ground. The double-edged sword did not even touch the ground, and just by relying on the tiny bit of sword Qi, he was able to cause a crack to appear on the ground. From this, one could see how sharp it was.
Since the other party didn't want to listen, then he had no other choice. Although he didn't want to do anything too big at this moment, trouble had already come to him and he had no choice but to deal with it.
Therefore, when he saw Wang Lan charging towards him with a double-edged sword in hand, one of his hands stuck to the metal nail on the side. The next moment, a tyrannical mana poured into the metal nail.
Immediately, the lightning that was heading towards the spikes began to throb, as if it had been attracted by something special.
Crack! Crack! Crack! A bolt of lightning shot towards Wang Lan. When Wang Lan saw this, his pupils suddenly constricted. He immediately used his double-edged sword to collide with the bolt of lightning.
Boom! As the double-edged sword and lightning clashed, a dull explosive sound could be heard. Wang Lan staggered back a dozen steps before regaining his balance.
Wang Lan was indeed worthy of being a Mountain and River List Ranker. When facing the lightning and calamity, he could actually rely on his own tyrannical mana in combination with the double-edged sword, in order to block it.
However, at this moment, Wang Lan's expression was a bit ugly. Wang Lan, who had experienced the might of lightning, did not want to come again.
Since he had already warned them to leave, he would not listen. However, since that was the case, he might as well stay, and then he would see Wu Tie's hands form a seal, and his mana would once again be injected into the metal nails. Soon after, the lightning in the sky began to explode, and in the end, it formed into the shape of a lightning snake.
"..."
At the same time, in the cave, Shi Ling was sitting cross-legged not far away from the water lake.
At the same time, many of the injuries on his body were also recovering at a speed visible to the naked eye. Those injuries were left behind during the battle with the water monster outside the waterfall, and also from the injuries caused when he came into contact with the Weak Water Barrier.
After taking a few healing pills, Shi Ling started to recover his mana. Not long after, the originally dull Magic Source started to regain a new life in Shi Ling's body.
Soon, Shi Ling's mana and physical strength were almost fully restored. He immediately opened his eyes and looked at the lake and the protective barrier made of water. The question was, how could he break the protective barrier without harming the herbs on the island?
If he used a highly destructive martial skill, although he could destroy the protective shield, it would inevitably cause all the herbs on the island to be corroded by the weak water. However, if he didn't use a strong one, how could ordinary methods pass through the protective barrier?
The question was, should Shi Ling do this?
Shi Ling couldn't help but frown. At the same time, he kept pacing back and forth, while his head was working even faster.
But not long after, Shi Ling's footsteps suddenly stopped. He wiped his hand on the Heart Ring and saw that it appeared in Shi Ling's hand.
Shi Ling looked at his Soul Accumulating Pendant and rubbed his chin with one of his hands. Last time, when they met weak water, Shi Ling had sneaked into the weak water to retrieve the water source in order to repay Wang Chuan's kindness. Shi Ling later on knew that the water source could shorten the cycle of producing Spiritual Source.
Thinking about that, Shi Ling turned his head and looked at the weak lake in front of him. Immediately, he muttered to himself: "If I throw the Soul Accumulating Pendant into the weak lake right now, and let it absorb the weak water source, wouldn't the water protection cover return to normal water?"
As Shi Ling said this, his face revealed an expression of excitement. He walked to the side of the water's edge and sat cross-legged, at the same time infiltrating his mana into the Soul Accumulating Pendant. Afterwards, the Soul Accumulating Pendant was wrapped up by Shi Ling's mana.
The Soul Accumulating Pendant slowly floated into the air. Under Shi Ling's control, it slowly moved towards the lake below.
