The Heavenly Saber Novel - Chapter 823
Chapter 823 Heavenly Lake Secret Realm (1)
Liu Ke’er couldn’t help but praise, “What a miraculous ability! The Xia Emperor Cauldron is indeed worthy of being called a Divine Weapon of the State. For many countries in the Central Region, this Xia Emperor Cauldron is probably the thing they have always dreamed of.”
Li Qing nodded, “That’s right, as long as I obtain this Xia Emperor Cauldron, it is basically equivalent to having a guarantee of national strength! Unfortunately, I only have one cauldron in my hand, and the other eight cauldrons have all been shattered!”
“Rumor has it that Cosmos Sect, one of the Four Great Sacred Grounds of the Eastern Region, was forged from the remains of Xia Emperor Cauldron back then.”
“This Cosmos Cauldron has undergone another transformation after being recast. It is very different from the Xia Emperor Cauldron of the past. The exact situation is unknown.”
Liu Ke’er said, “The Cosmos Sect only obtained one of the remains of the cauldron and it can become one of the Four Great Sacred Grounds of the Eastern Region. It can be seen how useful the Xia Emperor Cauldron is!”
“What matters is not the treasure, but the person who holds it! Look, I have also obtained the Xia Emperor Cauldron, but I do not dare to guarantee that I can reach a level comparable to the Four Great Sacred Grounds of the Eastern Region in the future.” Li Qing smiled.
A moment later, the three of them left the Xia Emperor’s tomb and returned to the ancient desolate warship.
Seeing the door close and the huge mausoleum floating in the endless starry sky return to silence, they couldn’t help but feel a trace of loneliness in their hearts.
“You came out so soon?” Ancient Desolate Lord asked doubtfully.
“That’s right. Things are going smoothly. There are no mechanisms inside. It’s unobstructed.” Li Qing said.
“How is that possible? The tomb of a supreme being of the Nine Tribulations of the Dao Realm is actually unguarded? Isn’t he afraid that his corpse will be robbed?” Ancient Desolate Lord said in shock.
“Of course, it’s impossible for them to be completely defenseless. At the final coffin, there is a very powerful formation that no one can destroy.” Li Qing said.
“Then what did you guys get inside? Can you show me?”
“Of course not.” Li Qing smiled faintly. Then, he floated a small bronze cauldron in his hand and lifted it in front of Ancient Desolate Lord.
“Just this thing? It doesn’t look too good. Was it the Dao Artifact that Autarch Nine Tribulations used when he was alive?” Ancient Desolate Lord said with slight disdain.
“That’s right. This thing is called the Xia Emperor Cauldron. It has unbelievable power. Although it is small, it is very heavy. It contains the will of countless people in the world. It is almost impossible to carry it.” Li Qing said.
“Such a small cauldron, can it have this power? Try activating the power inside!” Ancient Desolate Lord obviously didn’t believe it.
Li Qing tossed the tiny bronze cauldron forward. It rose in the wind and turned into a hundred feet tall. This was the true appearance of the Xia Emperor Cauldron. Then, it landed on the ground and emitted a loud boom, causing the ancient desolate warship to tremble violently.
“Stop! Stop! Stop!” Emperor Ancient Desolate Lord’s expression changed as he hurriedly shouted.
“Didn’t you say that you wanted to see the true power of the Xia Emperor?” Li Qing said with a faint smile.
“I already know how powerful it is. It’s too heavy. Please put it away first. Otherwise, my ancient desolate warship will be crushed by this cauldron.” Said Ancient Desolate Lord.
Li Qing put away the Xia Emperor Cauldron and said, “How is it? Do you know that I’m not lying to you this time?”
“As expected of a Dao Realm Nine Tribulations expert. The power of the Dao Artifact he used is indeed formidable!” Ancient Desolate Lord sighed.
“The Xia Emperor has a total of nine cauldrons. I only have one of them.”
“What? You mean there are eight more cauldrons? Then why didn’t you get all of them?”
“The remaining eight cauldrons have all been shattered.”
“What a pity!” Ancient Desolate Lord sighed.
“Let’s go. Let’s continue on to the Blue Wolf Star System.”
The Ancient Desolate Warship gushed out with a black light, and then disappeared from its original location. When it appeared, it was already in another starry sky.
“Eh, what’s the situation in that place ahead?” Ancient Desolate Lord looked into the distance, only to see a huge silver light appear there, like a galaxy leaking out from the ground. The scene was astonishing.
“I’m not sure. Let’s go take a look!”
The Ancient Desolate Warship sailed towards that direction. The so-called Mountain Watching Dead Horse seemed to be quite close, but in reality, it took an entire day for it to fly into the silver light.
This silver light was like a river, vast and vast, covering the entire starry sky. The Ancient Desolate Warship roamed within it, feeling as if it was a dream. It had an unreal feeling.
After swimming for an unknown amount of time, a huge whirlpool suddenly appeared in front of them, sucking in the Primordial Warship.
The Ancient Desolate Warship was not without resistance, but Ancient Desolate Lord was courageous. If he wanted to explore the secret, he would follow the whirlpool and enter.
After entering, it was as if a new world had been opened. In front of him was a vast ocean. However, it was different from the azure blue of ordinary oceans. The surface of the water here looked like a silver-white radiance.
Li Qing walked out to the deck of the Primordial Warship. Looking at the beautiful scene before him, he couldn’t help but take a deep breath, “What a rich spiritual energy! No, not only is there only spiritual energy, there is also a very holy aura, as flawless as immortal spiritual energy!”
“What kind of place is this? Why did such a vast ocean suddenly appear in this vast void?” Liu Ke’er asked.
Ancient Desolate Lord’s phantom appeared. He looked at the ocean in front of him and slowly said, “If what I expected is correct, this should be the legendary Heavenly Lake Secret Realm! This time, you’ve made a lot of money. Could it be that you’re really lucky? No matter where you go, you’ll always get benefits?”
“So it’s the Heavenly Lake Secret Realm! Rumor has it that Ancient God once entered the Heavenly Lake Secret Realm and grew up here.” Li Qing was a little surprised.
Back then, Crown Prince Shixuan said that Ancient God was banished by the Xia Emperor in the endless void and happened to encounter the Heavenly Lake Secret Realm, but now Li Qing knew that this statement was obviously unreliable.
Regardless of the truth, just letting the newborn Ancient God wander through the void, how long would it take for him to reach such a distant place? At that time, Ancient God was only a baby. No matter how talented he was, it was useless. If he didn’t have anything to eat or drink, he would probably have starved to death long ago!
From this, it could be seen that Ancient God definitely did not enter the Heavenly Lake Secret Realm because of luck, because this was simply impossible to achieve!
The only possibility is that Ancient God was thrown in by Lord Chang Sheng.
After Lord Chang Sheng took Ancient God out, it was impossible for him to raise such a baby. It was normal for him to throw him into this unique environment.
Ancient Desolate Lord said, “The secret realm of the Heavenly Lake is also of great benefit to me, an ancient desolate warship. You can move freely. I’m going to enter the bottom of the pond to nurture the warship.”
“Senior, go ahead. There shouldn’t be any danger here. We can protect ourselves.” Li Qing nodded.
Very quickly, the Ancient Desolate Warship sank into the bottom of the Heavenly Lake and disappeared.
Li Qing took Liu Ke’er and Xiao Bai and flew into the sky. Not long after, he encountered an island.
The island here was filled with a dreamlike color. The scenery was beautiful to the extreme. Trees were shady, flowers were lush, flowers were blooming, and the scenery was colorful.
Little animals lived leisurely in the middle of it, and when they saw strangers enter, they seemed to be calm and unhurried, and looked at them with curiosity.
“Could this Heavenly Lake be a place where immortals live? Why is the scenery so beautiful!” Liu Ke’er praised.
“Actually, it doesn’t matter if the scenery is beautiful or not. Most importantly, being here may help you comprehend the unity of heaven and man. You can try it.” Li Qing said.
“That’s right. When I entered this place, I felt relaxed all over. I felt like I was in line with nature.” Liu Ke’er nodded.
Very quickly, the place where they lived was easy to build, and they temporarily stayed here.
In fact, this place was not only beneficial to Liu Ke’er’s comprehension, but also greatly promoted Li Qing’s cultivation.
He directly entered the bottom of the Heavenly Lake and felt the abundant energy inside. As he began to cultivate, boundless immortal spiritual energy surged over and gathered into Li Qing’s body. The speed at which his cultivation increased was unbelievably fast.
“Based on this calculation, I’m afraid it won’t be long before I can reach the peak of the Void Realm’s third level and cross the Primordial Tribulation Fire directly.” Li Qing thought to himself.
A few days later, Li Qing temporarily left this small island and went to explore deeper into the Heavenly Lake secret realm.
Very quickly, he discovered the second island. The situation inside was still the same. The scenery was like a dream, and all kinds of creatures moved within it. It was incomparably harmonious and natural.
After searching for nearly half a month, there were nearly a hundred small islands in the Heavenly Lake Secret Realm. There were no dangerous creatures, and it was an incomparably harmonious place.
In the center of the Heavenly Lake, there was a very large island. After Li Qing entered, he could faintly feel a terrifying aura. However, after searching for a long time, he was unable to find any clues.
In his speculation, this terrifying aura should not be on the island, but in the depths of the island. However, in order to prevent complications, Li Qing forcefully stopped the idea of exploring further.
He returned to his original residence and saw that Liu Ke’er was still comprehending the nature of heaven and earth, so he did not disturb her.
Xiao Bai had a childlike heart and enjoyed playing with the small animals on the island. He used his own illusion abilities to become a cute little animal and mingle with them.
“This fellow doesn’t know how to seize the time to cultivate in such a good cultivation environment.” Li Qing couldn’t help but shake his head and laugh.
“By the way, this place is full of spiritual energy. There is even a surge of immortal spiritual energy. Let Xiao Jin out as well.”
He took out the Yin-yang Chaos Bottle, released Xiao Jin from it, and placed it on the surface of the water, allowing it to automatically absorb the energy within.
“The water of the Heavenly Lake here is not trivial. Why don’t I put some Yin Yang Chaos bottles back?” Li Qing had this thought again.
Back then, he had encountered a small Heavenly Lake on the seventh floor of the Ancient God Tower. He had also used Yin Yang Chaos bottles to pack some pond water back.
However, that little Heavenly Lake was far from being comparable to the one in front of him. Since he had encountered the Great Heavenly Lake, how could he miss it?
Li Qing took out Yin-yang Chaos Bottle and swallowed a large amount of water from the Heavenly Lake. He fused it into the Primordial Chaos Spirit Lake until it was completely filled.
With so much water in it, the Heavenly Lake didn’t seem to have changed at all. It was as if it was just a trivial loss. It could be seen how large its area was.
