All of them were Jin Dan realm experts.
After entering the water, monkey and the others channeled their Inner Cores and released their demonic qi, forming a demonic qi barrier around them that blocked out the lake water.
Little Fatty and Shi Jian released their spirit energy to form a spirit energy barrier as well, allowing them to breathe freely.
It was pitch-black beneath the lake.
The lake water was extremely murky as well. Although Su Zimo's vision was strong, it could not see through objects. His vision was not good with the mess of murky things blocking his vision.
Su Zimo was extremely cautious and his eyes were bright as his ears twitched – he did not dare to be careless.
Although the location of the great tomb was confirmed, no one knew what was in the lake.
The ancient battlefield was a space of its own and had existed for an unknown amount of time. It would not be strange for any monsters to be born in this lifeless lake water.
Furthermore, they had not discovered any traces of Little Fatty's senior brother, Leng Ming, up till now.
It was unknown if he had arrived here first!
Little fox was in Su Zimo's embrace and the remaining seven people formed a circle, protecting Qing Qing in the middle as they sank slowly.
Although the lake water was cold when they first entered, everyone was able to withstand it with their high cultivation.
Now that they were deeper into the lake, the surrounding water turned increasingly cold and emitted a bone-chilling coldness that even showed signs of penetrating their demonic qi and spirit energy barriers!
Not only that, the deeper they sank, the greater the pressure in the lake water.
Right now, apart from Su Zimo, even monkey felt a sense of pressure and had difficulty breathing.
"This lake doesn't look impressive but it's this deep?" Linghu was secretly shocked.
Monkey frowned slightly and asked, "How deep have we sunk?"
Su Zimo replied darkly, "We're more than 3,000 feet down!"
Over three hundred zhang, that was ten thousand meters!
The pressure at 10,000 meters underwater was frighteningly immense. If ordinary Jin Dan Perfected Beings were to enter this place, they would have bled from all orifices and died a sudden death – there was no way they could have lasted till now.
Furthermore, there was a pervasive chilling qi in the lake water!
Linghu secretly thanked his lucky stars.
If they were to do as he said and smash everything on the ground, they would not be able to find this place even if they smashed everything until the next year.
The lake water was turbid and the bottom was pitch black. It was like a bottomless abyss, waiting for everyone to jump in. It was eerie and terrifying.
The pressure around them was getting stronger and stronger. Other than Su Zimo, who was still able to remain calm, everyone else's Demon Aura and Spiritual Energy had begun to shrink.
The Golden Lion was a little anxious.
If this continued, when would it end?
If it sank another ten thousand meters, even Su Zimo wouldn't be able to withstand it and would explode to death!
"How much further?"
The Golden Lion was panting with difficulty.
Su Zimo shook his head.
In such an environment, his five senses were completely restricted.
Su Zimo muttered, "Let's go down a little more. If we still haven't reached the bottom of the lake, you guys go up first. I'll go down and explore myself."
The Little Fatty waved it off. He was sweating profusely and could not even speak. Slapping his storage bag, he took out a jade green bead.
The bead was the size of a baby's fist and seemed to be surging with jade waves within. It was dazzling and beautiful.
The moment the bead was taken out, it released a mysterious power that repelled the lake water around the nine of them, forming a jade blue light barrier. It was extremely spacious and could fit at least dozens of people!
Not only did the light barrier defend against the pressure of the lake water, it even isolated most of the chilling qi in the water.
Everyone felt invigorated and heaved a sigh of relief instinctively.
Su Zimo's eyes lit up. "Water Repellent Bead?"
Water Repellent Beads were mostly made from the Inner Cores of river demons and sea demons.
For this Water Repellent Bead to possess such power and be able to create such a massive light barrier at a depth of ten thousand meters, it was definitely made from the Inner Cores of sea demons!
For land cultivators, the Inner Cores of sea demons were way too rare.
There were three deep seas in Tianhuang Mainland and the demon races in the deep seas were even more diverse. Coupled with the unique environment, land cultivators and demons did not dare to enter the seas easily.
Of the eight demon regions, the three seas took up three of them!
"Brother Fatty, you're so strong!"
The little fox sprawled in Su Zimo's embrace and popped her head out, clapping her paws with a grin.
Shi Jian grumbled, "If you had such a treasure, why didn't you take it out earlier? I was about to suffocate to death earlier on. If I held on any longer, I would have fainted."
"There are already cracks on the Water Repellent Bead and it won't last much longer. I can only take it out at the most critical moment," Little Fatty wiped off the sweat on his forehead and explained.
In reality, he was not confident either.
If they continued sinking and the Water Repellent Bead cracked before they reached the bottom of the lake, this tomb exploration expedition would have failed.
Right then, Su Zimo's expression changed as he warned hurriedly, "Watch out!"
The water flow not far away suddenly changed, as though a massive creature was charging towards them!
The others were slightly slower and by the time they noticed it, a black shadow had already enveloped them!
Boom!
The black shadow collided heavily against the light barrier formed by the Water Repellent Bead and everyone shuddered.
Instantly, a crack appeared on the Water Repellent Bead!
Little Fatty's face was frightfully pale.
At this rate, the Water Repellent Bead would be completely destroyed in less than ten hits!
Everyone focused their gazes.
Outside the light barrier was a gigantic demon beast. It was silver-white in color and had a frightening gaze. It exuded a chilling aura and had sharp teeth that resembled daggers!
"It's an Ancient Frost Shark!"
The Golden Lion had a terrible expression. "Legend has it that this type of Frost Shark lives in the extreme cold of the deep seas and is extremely ferocious. It's already extinct in Tianhuang Mainland. To think that there would be one hidden in this lake!"
The moment he said that, waves rumbled on the other side.
Another huge shadow loomed over them!
It was another Ancient Frost Shark!
Two Ancient Frost Sharks could shatter the light barrier formed by the Water Repellent Bead in less than three breaths!
"Be careful, I'm going out!"
With a cold expression, Su Zimo left them with that statement and charged out of the range of the Water Repellent Bead's light barrier in a flash!
At that moment, everyone was at the bottom of the lake at a depth of 10,000 meters. Notwithstanding the bone-chilling chilling aura in the lake, the terrifying pressure alone was enough to kill most living beings!
The reason why the Ancient Frost Sharks could roam freely at this depth was partly because they were not weak to begin with. Secondly, it was because they lived here in the first place.
After countless years of evolution, they were able to evolve such a body and were already completely adapted to the environment around them.
At that moment, monkey and the others could not leave the protection of the Water Repellent Bead and could only watch everything outside from within the light barrier!
The Inner Core in Su Zimo's chest churned wildly and his blood qi surged with a frightening might. Even the surrounding lake water was affected!
"Om!"
A blood-red saber had already appeared in Su Zimo's hands.
Blood Quencher shuddered and shone brightly with a blood beam!
Within the lake, Su Zimo wielded Blood Quencher and his black hair danced; his eyes were deep and bright.
Rumbling demonic qi emanated from his mouth and nose. Against the scouring of the lake water, he was immovable like an inviolable divine being!
As though agitated, the two Ancient Frost Sharks turned ferocious and roared furiously. Abandoning the Water Repellent Bead in front of them, they turned and charged towards Su Zimo.
