The surging fire elemental energy protected his body, preventing him from being harmed by the cold currents.
Lin Xiu frowned as he continued to dive deeper into the water. Even if he was at the Earth Yuan Realm, he would still find it difficult.
He did not come here to temper himself but to explore the mysteries of the water. Thus, he used the power of the Nine Dragon Heaven Locking Armour to help him remove most of the pressure.
A layer of silver light gradually appeared on his body and Lin Xiu's breathing became much steadier.
Finally, he stepped on the muddy ground and began to gather his elemental energy bit by bit towards his eyes so that he could see what was going on underwater.
Everywhere he looked, there were corpses.
All of this caused Lin Xiu to feel a chill down his spine and his hair stood on end.
The corpses had been dead for far too long, but there was still a faint pressure coming from them.
On the corpses, the orchids swayed with the waves of the water.
Lin Xiu was extremely shocked. So many experts were actually buried everywhere, which meant that there must be a great danger here.
He did not dare to be careless and quietly covered the bottom of the pool with his spiritual awareness, observing everything.
Gradually, Lin Xiu discovered that there seemed to be a rather special place in the middle of the corpses. There was an empty space there that even the water could not reach.
He carefully controlled his body and gradually approached that place. Lin Xiu took out the Qingyun Sword from his spatial ring.
His eyes were filled with vigilance. After going around the corpses, he finally saw clearly.
There was a dazzling pearl in the empty space that was emitting a dazzling light.
Lin Xiu's breathing became hurried. This pearl was the legendary Water Avoidance Pearl that could allow people to walk in water like it was on flat ground.
There was not only land in the Immortal Martial Continent, but there was also a vast ocean.
As the ocean was not suitable for humans to live in, it was mostly inhabited by monsters and their strength was not inferior to humans.
But for some unknown reason, the monsters in the ocean did not get along with the monsters on land in the spirit region. Otherwise, if they joined forces, humans would not be able to resist at all.
And the Water Avoidance Pearl could be said to be extremely difficult to find in the human domain.
With the Water Repelling Pearl, he would be able to explore a wider world. From then on, he would be able to enter and exit the ocean without any obstacles.
Although he did not know why this bead ended up here, since Lin Xiu saw it, there was no reason for him to return empty-handed.
Out of fear of the unknown danger, Lin Xiu waved his hand and a burst of elemental energy shot directly towards the bead.
What was surprising was that the surrounding skeletons suddenly moved at this time, making a cracking sound.
The skeletons held the rusty weapons in their hands and approached Lin Xiu.
These skeletons were extremely powerful existences when they were alive. Otherwise, it would be impossible for them to still have such a terrifying pressure after falling for so many years.
But since their era was long gone, no matter how powerful these skeletons were, they were nothing more than a pile of dirt.
Lin Xiu focused and paid attention to every move of the skeleton. He took out a number of Tian Yuan chess pieces from his arms. As long as something went wrong, he would detonate these chess pieces.
As though they had not really moved for too many years, the skeletons moved extremely slowly. Many of the weapons in the hands of the skeletons fell directly to the ground and broke into two under the impact of the water.
This also made Lin Xiu relax a lot.
No matter how strange the scene in front of him was, Lin Xiu was determined to get that priceless Water Avoidance Pearl.
Both of his hands moved in a complicated trajectory in the water. Using the slow movement of the water, Lin Xiu was like a fish swimming in the water and quickly approached one of the skeletons.
"Mountain Quaking Fist!" With a low shout in his heart, his fists landed on the body of the skeleton like a barrage of bullets.
"Crack crack."
After being bombarded by Lin Xiu's fists, dense cracks gradually appeared on the body of the skeleton and in the end, it directly fell apart with a bang.
"Seems like because of the passage of time, the remaining power in these skeletons has become very weak."
After confirming the strength of these skeletons, Lin Xiu was no longer afraid and reached out to grab the Water Avoidance Pearl.
"Ah …"
As soon as his fingers touched the Water Avoidance Pearl, Lin Xiu could not help but let out a cry of pain.
It was simply too cold and the power emitted from the pearl made Lin Xiu's heart tremble.
Only until now did he understand that the strangeness of the pool was completely caused by the Water Avoidance Pearl.
But according to the records, didn't it say that the power of the Water Avoidance Pearl was extremely gentle and would not cause any harm to the human body? The current situation made him very puzzled.
Even so, Lin Xiu did not have the slightest intention of giving up.
All the fire attribute elemental energy in his body covered his right hand and at the same time, he mobilized the power of his bloodline and continuously increased the power of his blood. Only then did he manage to withstand the cold that penetrated through his body.
Without the slightest hesitation, Lin Xiu stomped hard on the ground at the bottom of the pool and his entire body shot out of the water like a cannonball.
What surprised Lin Xiu was that under the illumination of the moonlight, the power of the Water Avoidance Pearl began to be restrained and he no longer felt the slightest bit of cold.
At the same time, the water level in the pool actually began to drop at a speed visible to the naked eye.
It didn't take long before the situation at the bottom of the pool appeared in front of Lin Xiu.
Without the support of the Water Avoidance Pearl, those piles of corpses seemed to have completed their final mission. With a gentle breeze, they turned into dust and scattered in all directions.
But what surprised Lin Xiu was that the orchid grasses were all intact and remained at the bottom of the pool.
After keeping the Water Avoidance Pearl in his spatial ring, Lin Xiu leaped to the bottom of the pool and collected all the orchid grasses.
At this moment, Lin You's breakthrough was also at a crucial point. The spiritual power of the heaven and earth gathered towards him frantically.
Some of the Demonic Beasts in the distance also noticed the situation here, and their roars rose and fell continuously.
Lin Xiu came to Lin You's side and watched as the former's body became boiling hot and his aura continued to grow. A hint of joy gradually appeared in Lin Xiu's eyes.
Time passed quietly. At the final moment of Lin You's breakthrough, he suddenly opened his eyes and took out a small and exquisite box from his arms. A fiery red plant flew directly into the air.
"Fuse!"
Following Lin You's loud shout, a blue soul shadow flew directly towards the plant in the sky.
He had finally broken through to the Harmonious Spirit Realm!
