Du Feng didn't know that the people outside thought he was dead, and was desperately diving deeper. The deeper he went, the greater the resistance. He couldn't use his energy, he could only rely on his body and lung capacity to support himself. Because he had fused with the beasts, he was affected by the Origin of Ten Thousand Beasts. His body's quality was fully reflected at this time.
If it was any other warrior at the ninth level of the Qi realm, or even a warrior at the early stage of the Condensing Martial Realm, they would be scared to this depth. Under the situation where they couldn't use their Qi to protect their body, they couldn't withstand such high water pressure, and they didn't have such strong lung capacity to not breathe for a long time.
When they couldn't use their Qi, they couldn't use their fighting skills, swords, armors, talismans, arrays, and all other additional conditions were ineffective. When all the Cultivation skills returned to zero, the warrior's quality could be fully reflected.
"Gululu …"
The deeper he went, the darker the light became. Du Feng didn't know how deep he was. He only felt that his body was tied up with tape, and he couldn't move at all. Also, the pressure on his chest was so great that he couldn't hold his breath. He spat out a few bubbles, and almost choked on the water.
This situation was very dangerous. If he choked on such dense water, his lungs and trachea would be damaged immediately. In this place, there was no response from the heavens and earth. Even if he died, no one would know.
In the center of the deep pool was the water column from the Fountain of Life. Because the water was too thick, it didn't rise very fast. Only when it left the pool would it erupt and shoot up to the sky.
What was that? At this moment, a small bead flashing with blue light slowly rose from the bottom of the deep pool. Could this be the Pearl of Life that they were talking about? He didn't know if he could take it. Looking at the direction it was flowing, it followed the water column all the way up. Once it broke through the surface of the deep pool, it would definitely shoot up to the sky. The ones who had the highest chance of getting the Pearl of Life were the Winged Dragon and the Giant who were fighting.
Oh no! Du Feng wanted to reach out to grab the blue pearl, but he found that his hand was stuck in the water column. The water column looked slow, but it was actually very powerful. Although his hand had grabbed onto the Bead of Life, he was unable to free himself from the pillar of water. His entire body was being dragged upwards.
At this rate, it was only a matter of time before it broke through the surface of the deep pool and was ejected into the sky. If the winged dragon and the giant saw a tiny human holding a Bead of Life, they would definitely tear him to shreds.
"Ha!"
Du Feng exerted his strength and spat out another big bubble. However, his hand was stuck in the water column and couldn't move at all. It was as if he was stuck in a transparent column. The entire pillar continued to rise. It did not seem fast, but in fact, it had already risen half the distance.
It took him a long time to dive down such a deep distance. He did not expect to be carried by the water column for only a short while. In other words, he only had less than half of the time left to escape. This was because the higher the surface, the faster the water column surged up.
If this continued, he would lose his life. Just as Du Feng was feeling anxious, the green light on his body flashed again. It was the Wood Source Orb that Mu Gengnan had given him. It was starting to take effect. When this orb had been with Mu Gengnan, it had at most assisted him in his cultivation. However, after it entered Du Feng's body, it repeatedly displayed unimaginable effects.
"Whoosh …"
The green light spread from Du Feng's body to his arm, and then from his arm to his hand. Finally, it came into contact with the Bead of Life through his fingers. As soon as the blue and green lights came into contact, Du Feng's arm seemed to have been smeared with oil. In an instant, he slid out of the sticky water column and pulled the Bead of Life out of the water.
This time, he was in big trouble. The deep pool suddenly lost all its stickiness. Without the suppression of the water column, it directly exploded.
"Boom!"
The entire deep pool seemed like it was about to explode. All the water shot up into the sky. Even the water in the surrounding creeks began to flow backwards. All the water gathered together and then shot up into the sky endlessly. The winged dragon, which had been flying high in the sky, was suddenly struck by the thickened water column and was sent flying even higher into the sky. Even though it desperately flapped its wings, it could not escape the fate of being swept away.
"Hahaha, little thing, you still dare to fight with me?"
The giant's body rapidly grew larger. Clearly, the suppression of the Spring of Life was weakening. He took a step back and dodged the impact of the water column. His mountain-like body was clearly not as easily swept away as the winged dragon.
"Awooo …"
The snow wolf, which had been circling around the saber-toothed tiger, seemed to have been summoned. It let out a howl and turned around to run. It should be said that it was fleeing for its life. Because the suppression of the Spring of Life had weakened, it was currently at its weakest. It could be trampled to death at any moment.
"Gather!"
Not only did the giant's strength increase greatly, but the female tree spirit also clearly had an ultimate move. She muttered the word "gather" and then waved her hands. The surrounding trees all gathered in her direction. One by one, they merged into her body, and then her body began to rapidly grow larger.
Not only that, but her legs also became the roots of the trees. They extended towards the ground, and some even reached into the deep pool to absorb water. Now that there were no more mysterious restrictions, everyone wanted to take advantage of the chaos to gain some benefits.
"Roar, roar …"
The group of fourth-tier demonic beasts that had gathered in the surroundings all rushed over as soon as they saw the opportunity. They avoided the giant and the female tree spirit and rushed to the side of the deep pool to drink large mouthfuls of water. The demonic aura on their bodies became denser and denser. Clearly, they had obtained a lot of benefits.
Holy sh * t, just how much trouble did I get myself into? Seeing the chaos above, Du Feng really did not dare to go out. Fortunately, at this moment, one of the female tree spirit's roots extended down and even waved at him. It was very similar to how the girl at the entrance of the Hundred Flowers Brothel waved at him.
Someone had come to rescue him. Du Feng immediately reacted and hurriedly swam over to hold onto that thick root. If he knew that it was the female tree spirit's foot, he did not know if he would still be willing to hug it so tightly.
"Splash …"
The root wrapped around Du Feng and pulled him out of the water. Then, as the root shrank, he was once again hidden in the giant trouser leg. He knew that he was temporarily safe. It all depended on what the female tree spirit was going to do next.
"I've collected everything. Let's go."
Alright, it seemed like the other party already knew that he had obtained the Bead of Life. No wonder they came to rescue him in such a timely manner. In fact, if it was not for the abnormality of the Bead of Life, how could the suppression of the Spring of Life suddenly disappear?
