The Heavenly Saber Novel - Chapter 824
Chapter 824 Heavenly Lake Secret Realm (2)
After Li Qing filled a large amount of Heavenly Lake Water with Yin Yang Chaos bottles, he remembered another thing, and that was the egg of the Seven-Colored Immortal Phoenix!
During this period of time, Li Qing had always placed it in the Chaos Spirit Pool. However, the Seven-Colored Immortal Phoenix was still unable to hatch. It could be seen how much energy it required.
Now that he had arrived at the Heavenly Lake Secret Realm, this unique environment was much better than the one in Yin-yang Chaos Bottle. Perhaps he could succeed.
Li Qing sneaked into the bottom of the Heavenly Lake to find a place rich in immortal spiritual energy, so that he could satisfy the needs of the Seven-Colored Immortal Phoenix.
Within the Heavenly Lake, the deeper the location, the denser the immortal spiritual energy. As Li Qing continued to sneak into the bottom of the pond, the boundlessness of his energy had already reached a level that shocked him.
The Heavenly Lake was unfathomable. Li Qing dived down for a long time, but he still couldn’t reach the bottom.
The pressure under the water became more and more intense. Li Qing had no choice but to activate the Ancient God Golden Body to increase his resistance to pressure.
The moment he opened the Ancient God Golden Body, his heart skipped a beat. He could only faintly feel a trace of connection coming from an extremely distant place.
“Hmm? What’s going on? Why is there such a connection?” Li Qing couldn’t help but frown.
“After the seven-colored immortal phoenix is settled, let’s go check it out.” A faint premonition arose in his heart. Perhaps that distant connection was related to his Ancient God Golden Body.
Finally arriving at the bottom of the Heavenly Lake, Li Qing chose a suitable location to place the Seven-Colored Immortal Phoenix. Immediately after, he saw that the eggshell of the Seven-Colored Immortal Phoenix emitted a resplendent Seven-Colored Immortal Light, fiercely absorbing the immortal spiritual energy in the Heavenly Lake.
“Yi, your reaction is so big! You can’t be so exaggerated, right?” Li Qing felt that it was a little strange.
“Could it be that the immortal spiritual energy in the Heavenly Lake has a special meaning for the Seven-Colored Phoenix? It seems to make sense. The name of the Seven-Colored Phoenix carries an immortal character. Naturally, it needs to absorb this immortal spiritual energy, not just ordinary spiritual energy!” He soon understood this point.
No wonder the primordial spiritual energy was unable to hatch the Seven-Colored Immortal Phoenix. So this was the problem. The Seven-Colored Immortal Phoenix needed to devour the immortal spiritual energy. Ordinary spiritual energy could no longer satisfy its needs.
“Looks like there’s a good chance that I can hatch the Seven-Colored Immortal Phoenix this time! I’m very curious about this most heaven-defying creature in history.”
Li Qing looked around. The bottom of the pool was very dark, but it could not hinder his divine sense from investigating. He quickly saw the situation here clearly.
“Eh, these crystalline stones … look familiar!” Li Qing’s eyes narrowed.
“That’s right, these crystalline stones are the ones I saw at the bottom of the Little Heavenly Lake on the seventh floor of the Ancient God Tower!”
“Exactly the same!”
“Back then, I didn’t understand what these stones were for, but now I vaguely understand.”
“The immortal spiritual energy in the Heavenly Lake cannot come from nowhere. It can only come from something.”
“It’s like my Chaos Spirit Lake. There are countless stalagmites at the bottom of the lake. These stalagmites were dug out from the Origin Space of the Spirit Sea back then. They can continuously convert spiritual energy!”
“The Heavenly Lake in front of us must be the same. The main function of these crystalline stones is to transform into immortal spiritual energy. Let’s simply call them immortal spiritual stones.”
“The small stones on the seventh floor of the Ancient God Pagoda should have been taken from the Great Heavenly Lake by the Ancient God back then. Their main purpose is to continuously convert immortal spiritual energy, right? However, the amount is too small. They are far from being comparable to the Great Heavenly Lake.”
Li Qing walked to one of the Immortal Spirit Stones and wanted to pick it up. However, he discovered that these Immortal Spirit Stones were firmly combined with the Heavenly Lake and could not be shaken at all.
“As expected, those stalagmites from back then were also unshakable, but unfortunately, they were still defeated by my Heavenly Saber in the end.” Li Qing couldn’t help but smile.
“No wonder there are only a few Immortal Spirit Stones on the seventh floor of the Ancient God Tower. It seems that it is a bit difficult for an Ancient God to shake the power of this Heavenly Lake.”
He took out his Heavenly Saber and sighed, “It’s time to start digging for stones again, just like before!”
He didn’t know if these stones could be regenerated. Li Qing didn’t dig too many stones in a certain area. Instead, he dug them separately. He dug out a few Immortal Spirit Stones from each area and then moved his position.
If he came, he could guarantee that the Heavenly Lake’s functions would not be destroyed and that the immortal spiritual energy in a certain area would not disappear.
In any case, the area of this Heavenly Lake was so large, with endless Immortal Spirit Stones, Li Qing wasn’t worried that there wouldn’t be enough to dig it up.
He threw the Immortal Spirit Stones he dug into the Chaos Spirit Lake. From then on, this Spirit Lake had a new function, which was to continuously convert Immortal Spirit Qi into Immortal Spirit Qi.
“If this continues, my Chaos Spirit Lake will sooner or later become one of the best cultivation sites in the world. As long as I cultivate inside, I will definitely be able to travel thousands of miles a day.” Li Qing secretly rejoiced in his heart.
After digging for more than half a month, Li Qing finally stopped. It was almost enough. There was no need to go too far.
After that, he returned to the island to check on Liu Ke’er’s condition. He found that she was still comprehending. The situation was not clear, so he did not disturb her. He temporarily left this place and went to the mysterious place where the call was made.
As long as Li Qing turned into an Ancient God Golden Body, he would be able to sense this connection. Very quickly, he found a specific location. It was on the island in the middle!
It was in this place that Li Qing faintly felt an extremely terrifying aura. However, he gave up exploring because he didn’t want to cause any complications.
The result was related to the Ancient God Golden Body!
“The only thing that has anything to do with the Golden Body of the Ancient God is the Ancient God! Back then, the Ancient God grew up in the secret realm of the Heavenly Lake and regarded this place as his hometown. After his death, he might return here to bury himself.” Li Qing thought to himself.
Relying on this connection, Li Qing dived into the seabed and soon found a huge hole below.
When they entered, they discovered that there was actually a golden light surging within it. It possessed an extremely majestic power that made them unable to breathe.
As they advanced along the cave, the golden light in front of them was dazzling. Even their divine sense was unable to detect the situation inside, so they could only barely rely on the naked eye to identify it.
When they passed a certain corner, they suddenly opened up. A huge space appeared. In front of them, they could see a golden giant that was over a hundred feet tall standing there with its head raised, emitting an unyielding aura.
However, on this golden giant’s body, there was a palm print on its chest, piercing through his body, completely unable to heal.
As soon as Li Qing saw the palm print, he could confirm that it was made by the Emperor’s Extreme Opening Heaven Palm.
The Ancient God had once fought with the Extreme Emperor, and had been struck by the Extreme Emperor’s Heaven Opening Palm, becoming the fatal wound of the Ancient God’s life.
This wound didn’t look big, and it should be a wound that could be easily healed for a Dao Realm existence, but Ancient God kept it.
It wasn’t that he wanted to keep it, but that he simply couldn’t heal the wound.
The Great Perfection Realm’s Emperor’s Extreme Splitting Heaven Palm is enough to pierce through everything and cause eternal injuries. The limit of your strength will remain there. Unless you have a way to eliminate this power, you will be able to maintain this state forever.
Only the Ancient God’s vitality was strong, so he didn’t die on the spot and could still live for a period of time.
Li Qing couldn’t help but sigh. The Ancient God’s lifespan should have been very long, but in the end, he died early. The Polarity Emperor’s palm print was the most important factor.
Before he arrived at this giant, a thought suddenly surged through his mind, “My descendant, you’ve finally found this place.”
Li Qing couldn’t help but be stunned. He didn’t expect that he would be treated as a descendant of the Ancient God! Moreover, what was going on with this thought?
“Don’t panic. This is the thought I left behind before I died. As long as I complete my mission, it will disappear.”
Li Qing said, “Senior Ancient God, you made a mistake. I am not your descendant.”
“But I can clearly sense the bloodline of Ancient Gods Clan on you! However, the concentration is too low. The bloodline concentration of humans is too high!”
Li Qing said, “I am actually a human. I only obtained the blood crystal in the Ancient God Tower and merged it with myself. As for Ancient Gods Clan, it has been extinct for countless years!”
The thought fell silent for a moment and slowly said, “Is it extinct? Well, extinction is extinct, sooner or later. Ancient Gods Clan is said to be the most perfect race in the world, but there is also a fatal flaw, that is, the fertility rate is too low.”
“I’ve already anticipated this since I created this race.”
The sound of this thought gradually dissipated, becoming smaller and smaller until it was completely inaudible.
Li Qing knew that ever since then, Ancient Gods Clan had completely disappeared from the long river of history. He could only occasionally remember it from their ruins. This race was said to be the most perfect in the world, but it was still an imperfect existence.
At this moment, a dazzling golden light suddenly erupted from between Ancient God’s eyebrows. Then, a golden ball flew out from within and merged into Li Qing’s eyebrows before he could react.
He closed his eyes and remained silent for a long time before slowly opening them. “Is this the Eye of the Ancient God?” He whispered.
Ancient Gods Clan had an innate divine ability, the Eye of Ancient God. It could emit a golden light, turning everything in the world into golden stones.
What Li Qing inherited just now was Ancient God’s own Eye of Ancient God. Compared to what he possessed, it was of course thousands of times more powerful!
At the center of his eyebrows, a golden eyeball slowly cracked open, emitting ten golden rays of light. Wherever it passed, it turned into a golden stone.
