The current situation was clear. The lightning pool was the entrance to a certain 'treasure'. However, no immortal could break through the surging lightning liquid above the pool, much less touch it.
Not even a true immortal expert like God Lord Yan could do it.
Lin Jin even suspected that it would be the same even if Immortal Carefree was here. The lightning liquid was untouchable. It could only be broken by chanting a Heavenly Mantra.
Right now, only Huang Yingnv could use Mystical Immortal Melody. Lin Jin learned that Mystical Immortal Melody was a special supernatural power. Even among immortals, only a handful could cultivate it.
During the golden age of immortals, it wasn't difficult to find immortals or monsters who could use Mystical Immortal Melody. But now, less than one in ten immortals still existed. Naturally, the already rare ones became even rarer.
It was said that the only ones who knew Mystical Immortal Melody were Xuan Dao Sect's Spiritual Sage and Huang Yingnv.
Huang Yingnv was called aside and God Lord Yan personally taught her the Heavenly Mantra's incantation. Of course, this was a secret so no one else but Huang Yingnv could hear it.
Especially Lin Jin and Huo Yuan.
Lin Jin didn't force her. This wasn't the main point. There was another possibility, and that was to find a way to extract the Heavenly Mantra's contents and use it against Huang Yingnv. Or, he could just kill her without leaving a trace. This way, when Lin Jin found Spiritual Sage Miao Yan, he could get him to recite the Heavenly Mantra.
This was the biggest possibility but it was difficult to realize. Putting aside the fact that someone like God Lord Yan wouldn't reveal the Heavenly Mantra's contents, even if he did, Lin Jin wouldn't be able to kill Huang Yingnv. After all, Huang Yingnv was innocent.
Not to mention, Lin Jin would definitely fall out with God Lord Yan and a huge battle would ensue.
Not to forget, Lin Jin was only bluffing so no matter how one looked at it, he wouldn't take the risk.
It was better to play it safe.
Huang Yingnv had already memorized the Heavenly Mantra. Although she was clearly terrified, she was still a monster so she knew what was going on.
It could be said that she had no other choice but to listen to God Lord Gu's orders.
Following this, the Oriole Woman leapt into the air and transformed into a yellow-feathered bird. She began to fly towards the Lightning Pool, and at the same time, she began to sing.
From time to time, it would hum softly, and from time to time, it would resound loudly. The wonderful sound entered the ears, but no matter how hard they tried, they could not hear the specific content clearly. They only felt that it was very pleasing to the ears, and it made them want to continue listening.
"What a formidable Heaven's Path Incantation." Huo Yuan's face was filled with shock. At the same time, he muttered, "God Lord Yan, he actually prepared so well. He said that he prepared for more than 100 years. It seems like he wasn't exaggerating at all."
Lin Jin was very curious. He was curious to know what lay beneath the lightning pool that could make God Lord Yan yearn for it so much that he had been scheming for centuries.
Monk Huo Yuan was shocked. Compared to the two of them, God Lord Gai was filled with excitement and anticipation.
Out of everyone present, he was probably the only one who knew what was hidden beneath the Lightning Pool.
While Lin Jin was paying attention, he was also observing everyone else's actions. After all, as a 'physician', he had accomplished his duty and that was to save Huang Yingnv.
It was hard to say if God Lord Yan would kill him after he had outlived his usefulness.
Perhaps he really wanted to, but he wouldn't dare to act recklessly. Lin Jin could only hope that Northern Qi's Xiang Yun could get to Xuan Dao Sect as soon as possible and inform Wise Sage and the others.
This was Lin Jin's biggest trump card now. It wasn't just a bluff.
He had an agreement with Northern Qi's Xiang Yun. If Northern Qi found Xuan Dao Sect and notified Reverend Miao Yan, she would follow his instructions and use a special spell to activate the blood pill Lin Jin gave her.
The blood pill was the ghost-blood beast's clone. Once it was activated, Lin Jin would be notified immediately.
And with that, Lin Jin would have his next move.
But before that, Lin Jin could only try his best to maintain this fragile balance. If he could avoid falling out with them, he would. In short, Lin Jin realized that he and God Lord Yan were quite similar in certain aspects.
For example, they both liked to plan before taking action, and their plans were always very detailed.
Huang Yingnv was still circling in the sky, constantly casting her Mystical Immortal Melody. Miraculously, the raging lightning pool was gradually weakening under the influence of Mystical Melody.
Although it was slow, the weakening was obvious.
God Lord Yan's eyes glinted with excitement. At this moment, no one spoke or conversed. Everyone's attention was focused on the lightning pool.
Time trickled by but there was no news from the ghost-blood beast. In other words, Northern Qi's Xiang Yun hadn't met Wise Sage yet.
With that, Lin Jin hoped that the lightning pool would weaken slower.
Perhaps because it had been too long, one of the immortals God Lord Yan brought here suddenly said, "The lightning liquid in this lightning pool is quite powerful. It would be great if we could refine some of it for our own use."
God Lord Yan seemed to be in a good mood as he smiled and said, "Ze Ji, I advise you not to do that. Two hundred years ago, a Thunder Immortal had the same idea as you. He wanted to steal the lightning liquid from this lightning pool and use it for his own use. But after that, this Thunder Immortal died on the spot."
The immortal named Ze Ji's expression changed and he didn't dare to say another word.
The Thunder Immortal was clearly a true immortal, just like Huo Yuan. Huo Yuan was a Spiritual Master Huo Yuan while the Thunder Immortal was a true immortal expert who specialized in thunder.
Even true immortals had died to this lightning pool. So what if a hollow immortal who specialized in thunder wanted to peek into it? Wasn't that suicidal?
Perhaps because the lightning pool was less than half of its original size, God Lord Yan was clearly delighted. He then said, "Everyone, this lightning liquid has been formed for thousands of years and its origin is a mystery. But one thing is for sure, it's not something an immortal can control. Whether it's a hollow immortal or a true immortal, they'll die upon touching it. Moreover, it can't be refined. If anyone dares to touch it recklessly, don't expect anyone to save them."
God Lord Yan didn't say this at first and only said it now. It was obvious that he had other plans. He might even be hoping that someone would touch it.
At the same time, he was warning everyone that before the lightning pool ran out, even if there was only a tiny bit left, they shouldn't recklessly enter. Otherwise, they would have to bear the consequences.
Lin Jin even felt that God Lord Yan was saying this to him, no, to 'Curator'. Despite God Lord Yan's calm demeanor, Lin Jin was sure that he was extremely nervous right now.
After all, the lightning pool was about to disappear. God Lord Yan must be worried that 'Curator' would beat them to it and take the treasures within.
