Chapter 185 (1/2)
The silence of Shu Sanqi made other drillmasters feel confused and not know what on earth he was thinking about.
Soon Shu Sanqi said, “Decades of years ago, I once went to the Green-deer School to visit a friend, and accidentally heard my friend mention the founder of the empire actually owned a super pool of spiritual power called the Four Holy Souls, and around the pool, there existed the phantoms of four kinds of mythical creatures, namely Green-dragon, White-tiger, Rosefinch and Snake-tortoise…”
Many drillmasters failed to stay calm even before Shu Sanqi finished his words, and couldn’t help asking if it was true, because it meant in the world actually existed the super-class Pond of Spiritual Power.
“My friend has always been steady. He mentioned the stuff by accident after he was drunk. When I intended to confirm it later, my friend refused to talk about it any more, said it was just a rumor and asked me not to take it seriously,” Shu Sanqi continued.
The crowd of drillmasters all felt surprised and suspicious.
“But anyway, the Pond of Spiritual Power Bai Lingshi generated this time is definitely extraordinary, and it looks seemingly different from other first-class Pond of Spiritual Power, about which we don’t have to make too many conjectures.”
The words of Shu Sanqi couldn’t disperse the confusion of the other drillmasters.
But they were all clear they would violate the taboo if they paid too much attention to the cultivation secret of Bai Lingshi.
Suddenly, when Young Man cast a casual glance on the optical screen, her eyes got widened, and she said in a surprised tone, “How could it be?”
Shu Sanqi and other fellows got alert in the hearts, and when they looked at the screen, they found, in the Gang-producing Lake, Bai Lingshi had already gone, leaving Lin Xun meditating on his stone platform alone.
However, the water of the Gang-producing Lake was disappearing at a speed that you could notice with your eyes, and the surface of the lake thereupon was sinking continuously, which made Shu Sanqi and the others feel shocked, since what was gathered in the lake was actually the purest original Gang Qi, and it had taken years to have such a large scale.
But now the original Gang Qi was disappearing at a surprising speed!
How could it be?
All people present looked different in a flash. If the Gang-producing Lake disappeared completely this time, the Blood-thirsty Camp would have no necessity to exist anymore!
“Could it be possible that the anomalies caused by Bai Lingshi when she made a breakthrough were so amazing that it led to this?”
“No way! Have you ever witnessed the promotion of someone could lead to such a change?” somebody retorted.
“Could it be possible that it might have something to do with Lin Xun?”
When someone put forward the suspicion, many drillmasters couldn’t help looking at Lin Xun, and found Lin was cultivating alone. His breath was as calm as the peaceful ocean all over, and not a single hint of unusualness was found on Lin’s body.
But the more ordinary Lin Xun performed at the moment, the more unusual they felt. They all thought that Lin Xun shouldn’t have behaved like this, since he had cultivated for nine days and still had no sigh of making a breakthrough. Was it normal?
But it appeared to be too absurd to say Lin Xun had something to do with the abnormal change of the Gang-producing Lake, and no one dared to confirm.
Just when Shu Sanqi and other guys present felt shocked and confused, the surface of the lake sank even deeper. No one was clear about how much original Gang Qi had disappeared. If the situation went on, the consequence would be severe.
Shu Sanqi and other guys all looked solemn, and they even didn’t get time to pay attention to Lin Xun any longer.
Just at this moment, an earthshaking boom burst out suddenly from the body of Lin Xun who was cultivating, with the power to sweep the whole place.
Boom! The place where the lake was located looked as if it had been struck by a terrifying windstorm, which made everything on the spot get disordered.
With the buzz of the Spiritual Projector, the optical screen it produced began to shake violently at the moment, and the scene it displayed just became blurred and twisted, which made it impossible to discern clearly what was happening in the Gang-producing Lake.
“Let’s go and have a look!”
The figure of Shu Sanqi flashed, and disappeared in an instant.
Obviously, Shu couldn’t hold back the suspicion in the heart, or keep calm any more. He couldn’t wait to find out the truth.
Other drillmasters also realized what was happening, and followed him quickly.
Those abnormal changes happened so fast that they even had no time to react. If something irretrievable happened to the Gang-producing Lake, none of them could take the responsibility.
…
When Shu Sanqi and other drillmasters arrived, they got stunned by what they saw.
The Gang-producing Lake almost dried up, with only a thin layer of water there, and rocks at the bottom of the lake were mostly exposed.
It was the liquid of the original Gang Qi, instead of ordinary water. Now most of the liquid disappeared, which made Shu Sanqi and other drillmasters feel like their hearts were bleeding.
How could it be?
Most drillmasters cast their eyes on the last stone platform over the lake, on which Lin Xun was struggling to get up awkwardly. With his clothes torn into pieces and his hair disheveled, Lin Xun looked as if he had been affected by the explosion just now.
But he didn’t get hurt.
Was there any connection between the lad shabby in dress and the Gang-producing Lake nearly drying up?
No one could make sure what had happened just now, since the scene was just too unimaginably queer. It looked as if the entire Gang-producing Lake had exploded, which made people feel frightened and confused.
Such kind of thing had never happened before.
Young Man couldn’t help asking Lin Xun anxiously, “You little jerk, have you made the breakthrough?”
Lin Xun nodded, “Yes, I was so luck.”
Lin looked a little bit strange now. With his eyes looking vacant, Lin seemed to be thinking about something hard to resolve.
Young Man felt relieved at once, and said, “That’s great. That’s be great…”.
