Jinglan Ancient Lake.
Hayashikawa and his group of seven had been in the lake for a few hours. All they could see was a deathly gray fog. Even though they had amazing eyesight as cultivators, they could only see a few hundred meters around them. They could not see anything further.
This feeling of losing their vision made them feel inexplicably anxious. Fortunately, Hayashikawa was by their side. The ice attribute cold air he released could isolate them from the corrosion of the deathly fog, so they did not consume too much of their energy and felt more at ease.
After the incident at the market, everyone looked at Hayashikawa with more caution. Although this Junior Brother's strength was only at the Peak of the Foundation Establishment Stage, at the last moment, he condensed the deathly fog into ice crystals and shot them with terrifying power. No one dared to underestimate him.
If the previous Mu Yuyi was just a child without any battle prowess, but he was extremely important. But now, this child was so aggressive that his existence could no longer be ignored.
"Yuyi, how much spiritual power have you consumed?" Luo Yuxi asked with concern.
Ever since they entered Jinglan Ancient Lake, Luo Yuxi had been standing within three meters of Hayashikawa, afraid that something would happen to him.
"I've consumed 30 to 40 percent!" Hayashikawa said.
In fact, his true consumption was not even 10 percent. As long as he absorbed the spiritual energy here, his recovery speed would be much faster than his consumption speed. There would not be any problems at all.
Of course, he could not let others know about this.
Uncle Luo directly handed Hayashikawa a jade bottle, which contained ten precious Soul-Condensing Pills. "This is a Soul-Condensing Pill. After eating it, you can replenish a large amount of spiritual power. You don't have to save it. Once your spiritual power has been consumed by more than half, take one to prevent any unexpected situations!"
"Thank you, Fourth Senior Brother!" Hayashikawa said politely after receiving the jade bottle.
"You don't have to thank me, we have to thank you. If it weren't for your ice attribute protection, we would have to consume 10% of our spiritual energy every two hours. That's 10% of the spiritual energy of a Nascent Soul Stage cultivator. Even with the Soul Condensing Pill, it would be difficult to replenish it. We have to return within a day after entering the Ancient Still Water Lake, and this is the ideal time without taking into account other dangers. If there is any danger, the consequences will be very serious!" Uncle Luo said.
After hearing this, the rest of the people nodded, especially Lian Yifan and Liu Yong. Their cultivation was now at the Peak of the Gold Core stage. Without Hayashikawa, their journey would be more difficult.
The group's speed was not slow, but it was not fast either. They could not fly, so they could only walk. Walking on the scorched black barren land was a very boring thing to do. Coupled with the uncomfortable death fog around them, even a cultivator with an excellent psychological quality could not help but feel a little scared. As they went deeper and deeper, this feeling became more and more intense.
"Do you feel more and more depressed?" Chen Feiyu took the lead and asked.
Chen Feiyu, who had always been an elegant scholar, had the best mentality among the seven people. Therefore, he was the most sensitive to the changes in his state of mind and was the first to discover that something was wrong.
"I feel it too!" Luo Yuxi nodded and said.
Although the others were not as sensitive as the two of them, if they could not discover the abnormality after being reminded, then they really did not live up to the name of the Luo River Seven.
"I keep having the feeling that this Ancient Still Wave Lake is like an ancient ferocious beast. And now, we are walking inside its body. That kind of oppressive and heavy feeling is suffocating!" Chen Feiyu said with a frown.
"According to the information from the Dayin Tower, this is indeed a normal reaction after going deep into the Jinglan Ancient Lake. The higher the cultivation, the deeper the feeling of depression. This is also the reason why cultivators above the Spirit Severing stage rarely come here." Luo Yuxi said.
"It is said that once a Spirit Severing stage cultivator enters this place, they will feel a terrifying sense of danger. This feeling will drive them crazy, and even kill those who are not mentally strong!" Fang Jin said.
"That's scary. Fortunately, my cultivation is not high!" Lian Yifan said with lingering fear.
"Don't be happy too early. If Junior Brother was not here, the two of us would not have been able to go deep into the Jinglan Ancient Lake. As for the oppressive feeling that can drive a Spirit Severing stage cultivator crazy, you and I don't even have the right to feel it. This fog is enough to make it difficult for us to move." Liu Yong said as he patted Lian Yifan's shoulder.
Everyone fell silent. Indeed, the danger of the Jinglan Ancient Lake was a little beyond their imagination. Even the Luo River Seven, who stood at the top, felt a little powerless.
Fortunately, everyone's temperament was different from ordinary people. After a short while, they set off again.
Along the way, they also met cultivators who came in to search for treasures. These people were mostly of the Nascent Soul stage. Judging from the environment of the Jinglan Ancient Lake, this stage of cultivation was the safest to enter.
Most people avoided the Luo River Seven when they saw them, but there was no lack of people who had a grudge against the Luo River Sect. Unfortunately, with the Luo River Sect's seven here, even if they were of the Nascent Soul late stage, they would not be able to take advantage of them.
Just as everyone was starting to relax, the grey fog around them began to swirl slowly, and it became faster and faster. Not long after, it turned into a terrifying storm that covered the sky.
"What's going on?" Everyone's faces changed slightly. Hayashikawa also hurriedly swallowed a Soul Solidifying Pill, just in case.
Before anyone could understand what was going on, a large number of black shadows began to appear in the grey fog. The whistling of the wind suddenly became louder, mixed with the sound of suppressed whistling and flapping of wings.
"What is that? There are other living creatures in the Jinglan Ancient Lake? "Lian Yifan asked in shock.
Everyone's faces turned ugly. Obviously, they had indeed encountered a living creature in the Jinglan Ancient Lake. No matter what it was, to be able to live in such a harsh environment, it was obvious that it was not something docile.
"Whoosh!"
A shadow flashed past in front of everyone. Its huge wings were no less than five meters long. One could vaguely see that the wings were made of white bones, and there was even a disgusting green slime on them.
Furthermore, from the huge shadow in the distance, it was obvious that this creature was not just one or two. It was probably a creature that lived in a group.
"It's a bone plate!!! It is an ancient creature in the Jinglan Ancient Lake. Everyone, be careful. Do not let the slime on its body touch you! " Luo Yuxi's pupils shrank. From the information that he had purchased, he had found the record of this terrifying creature.
