In the valley.

The seven people gradually stopped and lined up, each looking down and then looking up again.

There is water at my feet, cold and cold to the bottom, but it seems to be stagnant, with no waves, no waves, and no light. From this point of view, a lake with a radius of dozens of miles lies quietly in the valley.

In the middle of this strange lake, there is a white jade stone platform, which is more than ten feet in size and three to two feet high. It is smooth and smooth, surrounded by stairs, and hangs quietly above the lake. There happened to be a ray of bright skylight pouring down, making the entire jade platform shine!

Yuan Xinzi watched for a moment and affirmed: "There must be an out-of-bounds magic circle on the jade platform..."

Li Su and others also believed it, but did not say anything. Instead, they took a few steps back.

Yuan Xinzi was about to order someone to explore the way, but when he saw his only six subordinates hiding on both sides of Lin Yi, he could only snort secretly and pace back and forth by the lake, very eager to try.

Lin Yi silently looked at the lake and the jade platform more than ten miles away.

The distance is still shrouded in vast darkness, and there is faint thunder, just like the beginning of chaos with endless variables, but also unpredictable. Only the ray of skylight pouring down above the lake seems to be opening up a glimmer of life in the night's dawn and desolation!

Langxiao Terrace and the lake where it is located should not be located at the end of this world, but in the middle, restricting the four directions, which is not without meaning...

There was a sound of water, and Yuan Xinzi couldn't help but step into the lake. Just as he was about to set foot, the man jumped back to the shore. But in just a short moment, the hem of his robe was covered with a thin layer of black ice. He hid his feet, still shivering, and said in surprise: "No wonder there are no waves, it turns out that the lake is all black water..."

Li Su asked curiously: "Elder Yuan Xinzi, what is Xuanshui?"

"The condensed but not solidified Xuanbing is Xuanshui. Its fallen feathers sink immediately, and it has the power to freeze the soul... Humph!" Yuan Xinzi replied with lingering fear, only to realize that he was talking to a junior, and he felt that he was falling. Knowing his identity, he couldn't help but snorted, and then said: "Lin Zun! There must be mysterious ice deep in the bottom of this lake, which is extremely dangerous. It is extremely difficult to climb to Langxiao Terrace from here!" He had already shaken off his clothes. The thin ice on the robe looked at Lin Yi.

Lin Yi took two steps forward, leaned down, lifted up his sleeves, and reached out to gently flick them in the lake water.

The water splashes and disappears, and then there is no light, no sound and no trace. However, a bone-chilling chill penetrated the body, the breath of blood was stunned, and the entire palm was covered with frost and stiff!

Lin Yi's eyes moved slightly, and he clenched his fist gently. But in an instant, the frost disappeared, and the stiff fingers regained their freedom. After a while, he straightened up, turned to Yuan Xinzi and others and said, "Since you know it's not easy, just do it according to your ability!"

Yuan Xinzi was still staring closely at Lin Yi's right hand, but the other party swung his sleeve and put it behind his back. He was a little surprised, then nodded easily and said: "Lin Zun is an expert, naturally he is not afraid of hardships..." Before he could finish his words, he turned to Li Su and others who looked troubled and smiled teasingly: "You juniors If you want to cross the water, you will overestimate your ability..."

Li Su and the other five remained silent, each feeling a little frustrated.

Yuan Xinzi raised his hand and took out a few jade talismans, and said proudly: "This is the Yin Fire Talisman, which has the ability to restrain black ice. Fortunately, I spent a lot of money to buy a few pieces just in case. Who would have expected it?" Comes in handy here!”

For the monks in the Demon City, the Yin Fire Talisman is no stranger. This talisman is embedded with three points of demonic yin fire, which can be used to defend yourself against enemies. However, it is of limited use because of its high value, so few people are interested in it, and it is no more than usual at this time.

Li Su and others' eyes lit up, and they hurriedly asked, "Can I transfer one or two..."

"Haha!" Yuan Xinzi's laughter was a little cold, as if he was taking the opportunity to release his inexplicable resentment, but he pretended to be generous and said: "With Lord Lin here, how can I hide my secrets? A thousand sacred stones..."

"..."

When several people were trading, each had their own inexplicable thoughts.

Not to mention Yuan Xinzi's character, he is at least shrewd, philistine, decisive when the opportunity arises, and also somewhat vindictive. He has always been resentful of the disrespect towards the juniors, but he was unable to act out due to scruples. Now that he finally got the chance, how could he be merciful? Fortunately, Li Su and others gained a lot, so they had no choice but to accept their fate...

Lin Yi had no intention of asking anything about this, and stood alone by the lake for a moment. The thunder and fire of the evil spirits in his body had spread all over his body along with the protective magic power. After a while, he walked towards the lake. After only a few steps, the person fell. He closed his breath and concentrated, and continued to move forward.

After a while, Yuan Xinzi and others entered the water one after another...

Lin Yi had the thunder, fire and magical power to protect his body, so he was not afraid of the bone-chilling cold in the water. But here and now, water avoidance tactics, various escape techniques, and spiritual consciousness cultivation are all useless. He had no choice but to step on the bottom of the lake and move forward slowly. The sediment removed is like an underwater swamp...

In a short time, the person was submerged more than ten feet under the water. When the boundless darkness hits, the world becomes vast for a moment!

Lin Yi continued to castrate, gradually entering the depths of the lake. Yuan Xinzi, Li Su and the other six people followed, looking for direction in the cold.

An hour after burning incense, I guess I have reached the bottom of the jade platform.

Lin Yi stopped and looked up. As far as the eye can see, there is chaos. The light from his phantom pupils shot out, instantly penetrating the dark water.

Hundreds of feet above, I saw the sky light shining and the jade platform floating...

Lin Yi stopped hesitating, used his feet hard and moved his arms to force himself up the water, but he unexpectedly lowered his head to look down. There seemed to be something strange in the place where I just landed, but it was ignored because of the thunder and fire protection. However, in the phantom pupil, under the thick sand and stones, a thin red light can be seen flickering...

What's the point of this hundreds of feet of lake bottom?

Lin Yi fell back, and when he touched the ground, he kicked out with both feet. The accumulated sand and gravel were stirred and slowly separated. He took advantage of the situation and made another move, and in the blink of an eye he dug a hole several feet deep. Without the obstruction, a piece of black ice can be seen lying quietly at the bottom of the lake. What's especially weird is that a thin and clear red light shines out from it, like a firefly in the night, small but present, and showing a strange aura.

what?

Lin Yi's eyes flashed with phantom pupils, he leaned down steadily, and stretched out his right hand covered with a faint firelight to grab it. The black ice was hard, but it could not withstand the power of thunder and fire, causing a few cracks to open in the dark ground. He used all his strength to penetrate it more than a foot deep, and then pulled it up suddenly.

"Kala——"

With a muffled sound of an explosion, a dark hole instantly opened in the hard and solid Xuan Ice, and a violent and inexplicable energy surged out from it, causing the surrounding Xuan water to sway.

Lin Yi raised his foot and kicked a few pieces of gravel, then stepped down hard, immediately blocking the hole. Then he took two steps back and stared at the thing in his hand. What he held in his hand was a stone pillar as thick as an arm, four or five feet long, dazzlingly fiery red, crystal clear as jade, and exuding fiery and compelling Qi...

"Fire... jade..."

At this moment, Yuan Xinzi, Li Su and others were attracted by the fire and came closer one after another. Yuan Xinzi made a sound in surprise, but was interrupted by Xuan Shui. He stood a few feet away, and once again danced and conveyed the message: "Lin Zun! This is Xuan Ice Fire Jade, a treasure of extreme yin and yang. It is very rare..."

Fire jade? nice one! There is something extremely yang in the extremely yin. There is no better way than the confusion of heaven and earth with the creation of yin and yang!

Inexplicably, Lin Yi seemed to have a flash of inspiration in his heart, but it was like a shooting star streaking across the sky and could not be grasped. He was slightly startled and put away the fire jade in his hand. As the light faded, the surroundings returned to darkness.

Yuan Xinzi stared for a moment, seemingly lost, and then started looking for it in the darkness. Li Su and the other five people who arrived later also followed around, each one full of expectations. If this continues, there may be something to be found, but if you want to break through the ice and find jade, it will be extremely difficult to just rely on the Yin Fire Talisman, which is not enough to protect your body...

Lin Yi didn't waste any more time, waved his arms and hit the water hard, then slowly floated up. When Yuan Xinzi and others saw this, they were afraid that something might happen, so they had no choice but to abandon the idea of ​​hunting for treasure and paddle up the river one by one.

There is a saying that a fallen feather cannot cross Xuanshui River. You can imagine the embarrassment of people walking there. Ups and downs, up and down again, until after more than an hour, a group of seven people arrived at the lake one after another. And the jade platform is still three feet above the ground, so it is not easy to climb over it...

Lin Yi arrived at the lake first, with a layer of golden dragon patterns flashing on his arms, and then he smashed with force. Before the mysterious water could rise, others rushed out and jumped onto the suspended white jade platform in the blink of an eye. Before its footing was stable, it was suddenly shrouded in a beam of bright skylight. This moment is like spring coming back from the severe cold, and the magic power in the body that has been stagnant for a long time finally shows signs of functioning freely...

"boom--"

"Ouch——"

"thump--"

"How can elders cross the river and burn the bridge..."

Lin Yishang was still feeling the difference where he was, and a figure fell down next to him with a "plop".

That elder figure was none other than Yuan Xinzi. He climbed up with an expression of rejoicing and ignored the movement below. He just looked up and said in surprise: "We have already arrived at Langxiao Platform, how can we cross the border..."

Lin Yi stood on the edge of the jade platform and looked down. On the surface of the lake, Li Su and the other five people were still struggling to keep watch. One of them had obviously been stepped on, and there were footprints on half of his face. It was with his help that Yuan Xinzi was able to escape easily.

What a burnt bridge!

But given the opportunity, who in this world would not step on others?

As long as you are willing and have a clear conscience, you will still have a good state of mind.

And where does the theory of cause and effect come from? Perhaps...attachment is the cause, and the original intention is the effect...

Lin Yi shook his sleeves, and a bunch of white light suddenly flew out. Five figures flew up from the water and fell onto the white jade stone platform in the blink of an eye. He swung the sleeves of his robe and put them behind his back, and Li Su and the others were immediately freed from restraints. But the five people were about to be rescued, but they each jumped up and glared at Yuan Xinzi.

Yuan Xinzi noticed something, took two steps back, and said unexpectedly: "How dare you do the following..."

At the same time, the white jade stone platform suddenly shook. Everyone ignored the argument and their expressions changed slightly. But in an instant, the sky suddenly became brighter and the wind howled...
