It took a long time for Lu An and Ling Chong to search the entire mountain range to ensure that they did not miss anything. After the first person, the two found two people in the same situation. They should be Celestial Masters from different cities and had not met yet.
Just like before, Lu An killed the two people.
The three people were in the same state and ferocious. Even Ling Chong was psychologically shocked. Along the way, Ling Chong frowned and said in a deep voice, "Could it be … that the people who die in the city are in this state?"
Lu An glanced at Ling Chong and said, "It should be."
"Then what kind of power is this?" Ling Chong frowned even more, and his voice even trembled as he said, "It can affect people's minds in such a large range and even go deep into the sea of consciousness. The effect is so long-lasting. Ordinary Divine Sense attacks and illusions can't do it!"
Ling Chong didn't know about the existence of the Bloody Mountain Lunar Red Stone. Even the thirty-one sects might not know about it. The matter of the Bloody Mountain Lunar Red Stone was too confidential, and Lu An couldn't talk about it.
"So we have to find the source as soon as possible and stop this power from spreading," Lu An said.
Ling Chong nodded after listening, but soon his body shook violently, and his mood suddenly became flustered. He looked at Lu An and said, "Leader … if we really find the source, will we also be affected and become like them?!"
Ling Chong's body trembled as he said, "I don't want to become like that. I'd rather die than become like that!"
Hearing Ling Chong's words, Lu An frowned slightly. In fact, this was the problem he had been most worried about in this operation. If the Bloody Mountain Lunar Red Stone absorbed too much power and became too powerful, it was possible that even the Divine Sense of a Level Eight Celestial Master would be affected. The consequences would be unimaginable.
"If there is really such a risk, I will let you all leave first," Lu An said, "Don't worry, I won't let you take the risk."
Ling Chong was stunned when he heard this. He was relieved, but suddenly realized something and quickly asked, "What about the leader? Won't the leader leave? "
"Yes." Lu An nodded slightly and said, "Don't worry, I have the power of space and Deep Ice. With these two powers, even Divine Sense attacks can't hurt me."
Hearing Lu An's words, Ling Chong was slightly relieved. Of course, Lu An did not tell the truth. The real reason was that he would not be affected at all.
"Let's keep going," Lu An said. "I hope the city ahead hasn't suffered yet."
Ling Chong nodded with a heavy heart. After all, this was the first time they encountered such a crazy person. It was very likely that the crazy person had already reached the city ahead and started another massacre.
The two of them flew forward at an extremely fast speed. After the two left the mountain range, it didn't take long for them to arrive at a large lake.
In order to search thoroughly, the two of them naturally extended their perception into the depths of the lake. However, the two of them were clearly stunned because they discovered that after their perception entered the lake, it was like a stone sinking into the sea. Their perception was completely out of their control and had entered an endless abyss. There was no feedback at all.
How strange!
Immediately, the two of them stopped above the lake. Looking at the endless lake, the naked eye's visibility from the surface of the water was very limited. The entire lake was dark green, and the color alone was obviously different from a normal inland lake.
"Leader, this lake is very strange," Ling Chong said with a frown.
Lu An nodded slightly. A normal lake definitely did not have the ability to block external perception. It was very likely that there was something special inside that did this.
"Let's go," Lu An said. "Let's go in and take a look."
Ling Chong's heart tightened when he heard this. To be honest, he was a little frightened by the previous three people. However, he could not shrink back and let the leader enter the lake alone. He could only brace himself and follow.
Bang!
Bang!
The two of them quickly entered the water and moved toward the depths of the lake.
In order to prevent unforeseen dangers, Lu An slowed down and did not even rush down. He stopped at a height where the light could reach. The two of them could still see each other with their naked eyes.
After entering the water, their perception was completely blocked. Therefore, the perception released outside of their body was chaotic and did not have any effect at all. They could only see their surroundings with their naked eyes.
However, the two of them were only at the surface of the lake. Once they entered the depths of the lake, there would be no light. This meant that the two of them could only rely on the light released by their bodies to see their surroundings.
"Leader …" Ling Chong swallowed hard and said, "This lake is very strange!"
"Wait for me up here. I'll go down and take a look," Lu An said.
When he heard Lu An's words, Ling Chong actually wanted to do so. However, he could not. He could only brace himself and say, "I'll go down with you, Leader."
Lu An did not say anything and immediately moved forward. Ling Chong saw this and quickly followed.
In order to be able to detect and respond to danger in time, Lu An controlled his diving speed and used a full four breaths to reach a depth of 300 meters. However, there was no sunlight here. They could only rely on the light emitted by their bodies to see their surroundings.
However, the situation was worse than they had imagined.
Even though their surroundings were filled with light, their vision was still very limited. The surrounding lake water was almost like a dark green dye. They could not see anything at all.
Even when Ling Chong raised his hand in front of him, he could only see a vague outline.
"Leader!" Ling Chong felt a little scared and hurriedly shouted to the surroundings.
"I'm here." Lu An was three meters away from Ling Chong. His perception and vision were also limited. This lake was indeed very strange. Moreover, the pressure of 300 meters was equivalent to the pressure of a normal depth of 400 meters.
The pressure of the water was very heavy. Lu An did not know how deep the lake was. It was not that he had not thought of using his power to directly lift the lake water and empty it completely. However, not to mention the depth of the lake, just the surface area alone was very difficult to do. If he emptied a part of the lake, the water would immediately flow back. It was better to dive to the bottom to see if there were any problems.
Since he could not see clearly, Lu An immediately released his power to push the surrounding lake water away, forming a space with a diameter of 300 meters with him as the center. Immediately, the dark green lake water disappeared from around him. Lu An and Ling Chong could see each other.
Ling Chong immediately heaved a sigh of relief. However, the lake area was not small. It would be too slow for one person to search back and forth. In order to save time and enter the ocean in time, Lu An said, "Let's split up and search the lake. Remember to push the surrounding lake water away. At least this way, we can ensure that we can sense danger in advance. If we really encounter danger, leave the lake immediately. "
Ling Chong's heart tightened. He really did not dare to split up. However, he knew that doing so would be too cowardly. He would definitely be laughed at when he returned. He could only nod stiffly.
"No matter what the situation is, we will leave the lake and meet up in 15 minutes," Lu An said. "Let's go."
Immediately, the two of them split up and started searching in completely opposite directions. Lu An was responsible for searching the north side, and Ling Chong was responsible for searching the south side. Ling Chong also opened a space of 300 meters around him or even larger to protect his own safety.
After splitting up, Lu An dived deeper into the lake not long after. The weight of the water was very heavy. It was not like normal water, but some kind of special liquid. However, even Lu An could not tell what this dark green water was for a while. However, since it could confuse perception, it was very likely to be related to the power of Divine Sense.
Finally, Lu An arrived at the bottom of the lake. In fact, the depth of the lake was not very deep. It was only about 10,000 meters. However, because the water was too heavy, the pressure here was comparable to that of the ocean at a depth of 40,000 meters. Even a Level 7 Heavenly Master could not bear it.
Lu An stood at the bottom of the lake. The space he opened allowed him to clearly see everything at the bottom of the lake. The bottom of the lake looked like ordinary soil and rocks. There was nothing too strange about it.
Just when Lu An had traveled several kilometers along the bottom of the lake, his eyes suddenly turned cold, and he immediately stopped. This was because something had suddenly touched the space that he had created!
It was just a touch. This thing had not yet entered the space. However, judging from the surface of the space, it was definitely not the terrain or rocks of the bottom of the sea.
Could it be … a strange beast?
A strange beast that could live under this kind of pressure should be a Level 8 strange beast!
Lu An's eyes turned cold. He became even more careful and vigilant. He stopped in place and increased the power he released, causing the space to expand again.
As a result, the thing that was originally at the edge of the space gradually appeared in the space.
When Lu An saw this thing, his eyes turned cold. He was obviously surprised.
This was … a plant?
