Lin Yi glanced at her and immediately took out a wooden bowl from the Jade Pendant Space, scooped a bowl full of river water and handed it to her, "Warrior, drink this bowl of Spiritual Knowledge River water!"
"…" Duanmu Yu rolled her eyes, took the wooden bowl and took a sip, smacking her lips while frowning, "Except for the slight bitterness, this is just ordinary river water."
"It can be seen that the key is definitely not in the river." Lin Yi concluded.
"Then where is the key?" Duanmu Yu asked.
"In the river." Lin Yi was very sure. If this River of Spiritual Knowledge was just an ordinary river, he would definitely not think so, but this river was not only extremely wide, but it was also shrouded in a layer of inexplicable fog. No matter how he looked at it, it was unusual. If there was nothing strange about it, Lin Yi would feel strange instead.
"Do you want to go down and have a look?" Duanmu Yu asked. Although the river could not be seen at a glance, the nearby river water was still very clear, and even the bottom of the river could be seen at a glance. If they just explored near the shore, even if they encountered danger, they could escape in time. There should not be any big problems.
"It's best not to do this unless it's a last resort." Lin Yi shook his head decisively. Although he couldn't say why, his intuition told him that this river was definitely not simple. If they rashly went down the river, they might encounter a terrible crisis.
"But besides going down the river, what else can we do?" Duanmu Yu said helplessly.
"Let's not worry about the River of Spiritual Knowledge for now. Let's find the Spiritual Knowledge Grass first. Didn't you say it was near the River of Spiritual Knowledge?" Lin Yi suggested. The matter of the River of Spiritual Knowledge could be put aside for now. It would not be too late to figure out what to do next. In contrast, the Spiritual Knowledge Grass was more important. If they could find the Spiritual Knowledge Grass, it did not matter much whether the River of Spiritual Knowledge could temper the Spiritual Knowledge.
"Not nearby, but in the river." Duanmu Yu said.
"In the river?" Lin Yi was surprised when he heard this and could not help frowning, "Is the so-called effect of the River of Spiritual Knowledge referring to the Spiritual Knowledge Grass?"
"That's possible." Duanmu Yu nodded. The matter of the River of Spiritual Knowledge was only recorded in a very small number of ancient books, but there was no substantial conclusion that could be passed down. The so-called tempering of Spiritual Knowledge was only a very vague description. Maybe it was referring to the Spiritual Knowledge Grass, but it was not clearly mentioned in the ancient books.
"So we really have to go down there?" Lin Yi couldn't help but have a headache. His intuition was rarely wrong. Unless it was absolutely necessary, he really didn't want to go into the river.
"That's not necessarily the case, we can wait for the river to ebb, then we can go down the river to find the Spiritual Knowledge Grass, as long as we come up in time before the tide rises." Duan Muyu said. This was a method passed down by her master. Otherwise, it would not be so easy to find the Divine Sense Grass growing in the river.
"Alright." Lin Yi's eyes lit up. Such a wide and boundless river would definitely have high and low tides. Even if it was still risky to wait until the tide was low, it was much less risky than entering the river rashly. This method was feasible.
After the two agreed on the plan, they meditated and rested by the river, while conserving their energy and waiting for the tide to ebb.
Not long after, the river slowly receded, and the bottom of the river near the shore was revealed to the two. Lin Yi and Duan Muyu got up at the same time, glanced at each other, and went down the river to look for the Divine Sense Grass.
However, although the tide was ebbing, the river was not completely drained, only a small part of the riverbed was exposed. Lin Yi and Duan Muyu could only hurry up and search this part of the riverbed. When the tide rose, they would have to hurry back to the shore and wait for the next ebb.
What the two did not expect was that the bottom of the River of Spiritual Knowledge was unexpectedly green, with all kinds of water plants everywhere. It was not easy to find the Divine Sense Grass that they had never seen before, even if Duan Muyu knew some of its general characteristics, it would not be easy.
"Let's take our time, there is no limit to the number of times we can search. This time we will first search a section, and next time we will search another section. If there really is a Divine Sense Grass, I believe we will find something." Lin Yi said.
"En, then let's start from the deepest riverbed and wait for the tide to rise before we go to the shore. This way, we will have a little more time." Duan Muyu suggested.
"Okay." Lin Yi nodded.
The two immediately began to search the riverbed closest to the center of the river. This place was three or four miles from the shore, but even so, with Lin Yi's Divine Sense, he could not detect how wide the river was at the moment, let alone the boundary of the other side. This River of Spiritual Knowledge was really a bit wide, people who did not know might think it was a sea.
"This mud is a bit deep." Lin Yi frowned when he walked halfway. At this time, the mud had already reached his thigh. According to this, when they reached the farthest end, the mud would at least reach his chest. If it was an ordinary person, it would be extremely difficult to even move a step, let alone find the Divine Sense Grass in this environment. Even if they waited until the tide rose, they would not be able to retreat, and even their lives would be lost in the river.
However, this was only for ordinary people. For a master of the Foundation Establishment Stage, it was nothing. At most, there would be some hindrance in their movements. Lin Yi was still a Soul Body. Although all the parts in his body were still there, his weight was much lighter than his body. As long as he controlled it a little, even if he stood on the mud, he would not sink.
Of course, Lin Yi actually had a more convenient method, which was to transform into a Soul Body. However, he always felt that this place gave him an inexplicable sense of crisis. If something happened to his Soul Body, he might not even have a chance to react, so he did not dare to do this rashly.
On the other hand, Duanmu Yu was also calm, walking on the mud as if she was walking on flat ground. She looked more elegant and neat than Lin Yi, and she was also silent. Seeing Lin Yi looking at her in surprise, she smiled and explained, "Silent Leaf Fall is a specialized light body martial technique of our Ye Ling Sect."
"Very good." Lin Yi sincerely praised. This was not a compliment. With his insight, he could see the value of Silent Leaf Fall. Using it to deal with the mud was really overkill. This kind of silent light body martial technique could only show its greatest value in actual combat. As the Eldest Senior Sister of Ye Ling Sect, Duanmu Yu was indeed not simple.
Duanmu Yu smiled slightly, and then began to carefully search for the Divine Sense Grass in the omnipresent pile of water plants. Lin Yi also did not neglect. This place was not suitable to stay for long, and they had to move quickly.
The two of them were very efficient, but even so, they still found nothing. When the tide rose, they returned to the shore empty-handed and looked at each other.
