At this point, the surrounding scenery had undergone a fundamental change.
The first part of the journey was still a primitive cave, which was completely formed naturally. Now, whether it was the lake in front of them or the flat mountain wall, it was obvious that they were man-made.
In the empty lake below, there was a gray thing that kept circling around.
Vigilant, Luo Zheng and Lie Yu moved forward along the edge. In any case, there was no way back. He wanted to see what was at the end of the lake.
This man-made lake was not large, only about two or three li in length. At the end of the lake, the flat mountain wall began to shrink, finally forming a slender passageway.
After moving across the edge of the lake, the two of them discovered that the passageway was bottomless. It was actually a dead end!
Luo Zheng and Lie Yu looked at each other. Lie Yu took a brown wooden stick from his body and gently waved it in the air. The end of the wooden stick burst into flames.
Then, Lie Yu threw the wooden stick down.
The two of them watched as the flames in their field of vision became smaller and smaller, only disappearing after a long time.
Lie Yu's face revealed a gloomy expression. "It's too deep down."
Previously, they had fallen from above and were close to this man-made lake, so they were already very deep under the Sacred Spring Mountain. If they continued to fall, who knew where they would fall? Moreover, with such a strong gravitational force, it would be difficult to keep their lives.
"It seems that this is also a dead end." Lie Yu sighed. The thing he had been worried about had finally come true. He was afraid that they would be trapped here until they died.
"There's a way," Luo Zheng suddenly said.
"Where's the way?" Lie Yu hurriedly asked.
Luo Zheng raised his head and pointed upwards.
The passageway in front of them was a fault, but there was another passageway above it. However, this passageway was embedded in the ceiling.
"This …" Lie Yu also discovered that the other passageway was indeed connected to the one below them. The problem was that they could not walk on this path.
If they could fly, they would not have to waste so much effort.
Luo Zheng's eyes narrowed into slits. In the end, he turned around and looked at the lake behind them.
Reversal …
After Luo Zheng entered the Sacred Spring Mountain, he discovered that the source of power had undergone a reversal.
Furthermore, this reversal should have been carried out by all the energy sources at the same time. Thus, there was clearly some mechanism within the Sacred Spring Mountain that could control the energy sources to reverse this process.
At this moment, Luo Zheng saw that the road in front of him was actually hanging directly from the ceiling. He was more confident in his judgment!
This inexplicable road in front of them was definitely designed for people to pass through. The gravity here was so great that if a martial artist couldn't fly, they could only rely on the reversal of gravity to pass through.
Then the mechanism should be here?
There was nothing in the artificial lake behind him except for the gray thing. Was this thing the key to the gravitational reversal?
Lie Yu leaned against the wall. He had already lost his temper. He had gotten lucky this time and had obtained quite a bit of the Origin of Power. With his gains, it would not be difficult for him to rank first in this coming of age ceremony.
The problem was that he had to return alive. Otherwise, everything would be for naught.
When he saw that Luo Zheng was still trying to think of a way, he smiled faintly. This human fellow was quite resilient. He did not seem to be discouraged at all.
"It's useless. The terrain here is not complicated. We have not seen any forks along the way. Unless you want to jump down … If there is no other way, we will jump down and try our luck!" Although Lie Yu said this, he knew in his heart that jumping into that bottomless abyss would not bode well for them.
Luo Zheng did not answer Lie Yu's words. Instead, he walked towards the artificial lake.
"What are you doing?" Lie Yu was shocked. Only the center of the artificial lake had that gray thing. He could not tell what it was. In any case, no one in the Mountain-Crushing Tribe had mentioned it. Perhaps even the Prophet did not know what it was …
However, the source of power in the Sacred Spring Mountain had nurtured many terrifying creatures. The Mountain-Crushing Tribe's people had been warned not to provoke any of the strange beasts in the Sacred Spring Mountain!
"You will be sending yourself to death if you go down!" Lie Yu continued. He was afraid that if Luo Zheng died, wouldn't he be in an even worse situation?
Luo Zheng did not pay attention to Lie Yu's words.
If there was a way out, he would take it step by step and look for the greatest opportunity. If there was no other way out, he could only choose to take risks. This was Luo Zheng's way of doing things.
"Pu!"
With a leap, Luo Zheng jumped into the artificial lake.
The artificial lake was only three meters deep. After jumping in, Luo Zheng walked directly towards the gray thing. The closer he got, the clearer the gray thing became.
Not long after, Luo Zheng discovered that the gray thing was many thin wisps of smoke. The wisps of smoke were constantly floating and rotating around a sphere.
As he got closer, Luo Zheng could barely make out that the center of the smoke was actually a round Eight Trigrams Sphere!
At this moment, Lie Yu had also jumped into the artificial lake. He could not really watch Luo Zheng die … However, as Luo Zheng got closer and closer, the gray thing did not attack Luo Zheng. This gave Lie Yu a glimmer of hope. Could the problem really be here?
However, with Lie Yu's brain, he really could not think of a way out of here.
The closer he got to the Eight Trigrams Sphere, the slower Luo Zheng's footsteps became, and the more cautious his movements became.
If there was some powerful mechanism here, Luo Zheng would not have much room to resist!
Ten meters …
Fifty meters …
Thirty meters …
Ten meters …
Finally, Luo Zheng walked into the gray mist.
Before entering the mist, Luo Zheng had already held his breath. Although he was not afraid of poison, he was still afraid of accidents. He could only be fully prepared.
"It's okay." Luo Zheng's eyes became more and more excited. Perhaps his guess was correct. This thing should be related to the reversal of gravity!
Then, Luo Zheng grabbed the Eight Trigrams Sphere in the center!
This Eight Trigrams Sphere was like a piece of fired porcelain. Its surface was very smooth, and it was heavy in his hand.
Luo Zheng held it with one hand and carefully examined the Eight Trigrams Sphere. There were two holes on the sphere, one black and one white, and there was a gap in the center following the pattern of the Eight Trigrams.
After observing it for a while, Luo Zheng still could not figure out what was going on.
He tried to use his blood to recognize it as its master, and then used his perception to immerse the Eight Trigrams Sphere, but there was no reaction.
After trying several methods, Luo Zheng suddenly grabbed the top of the Eight Trigrams Sphere and twisted it.
"Crack!"
He actually twisted the Eight Trigrams Sphere, and the black part and the white part were reversed.
At this moment, Luo Zheng suddenly heard a roar in his ears. Then, he saw the power of the lake above his head directly pour down!
At this moment, Lie Yu also walked into the gray fog. He wanted to warn Luo Zheng not to touch that thing casually. If he accidentally triggered something, they would really be finished.
However, before he could say anything, Luo Zheng had already twisted it open …
"Hualala …"
Even if a basin of water was poured down, it would cause a great disturbance, let alone a lake of power of the lake.
After changing the gravitational force, the power of the lake directly fell from the artificial lake above to the artificial lake below, instantly drowning Luo Zheng and Lie Yu!
Lie Yu was really stunned at this moment. This was the power of the lake, and it was the power of the entire lake! He got it so easily?
The power of the lake fell from the sky and kept surging in the artificial lake below. After a while, Luo Zheng and Lie Yu floated up from the bottom of the lake.
"I … I'm going to absorb all of this power of the lake! Hahaha! " Lie Yu was so happy that he was about to go crazy. Not to mention absorbing the power of the lake, just absorbing a small part of it would make him, Lie Yu, qualified to be the leader of the Mountain-Crushing Clan in the future!
In the past, Lie Yu had never thought that he would have such a day, but now he was almost certain.
The only thing that made Lie Yu depressed was that after absorbing a small part of the power of the lake, he could no longer absorb it …
Although Lie Yu's physical body was far stronger than the warriors of other clans, there was still an upper limit. Under the crazy absorption of the power of the lake, his physical body quickly reached a state of saturation.
