Half an hour later, Gu Yuan, who was deep at the bottom of the lake, felt that the two terrifying auras above him had completely disappeared, and then he slowly dived up.
“Hu…Hu…”
As soon as he emerged from the water, Gu Yuan's face turned slightly red and he breathed in the fresh air in big gulps.
"Damn it...I almost suffocated to death at the bottom of the lake!"
Gu Yuan cursed angrily, and a wave of fear rose in his heart. The two terrifying auras really made him tremble all over...
After getting ashore, Gu Yuan used his spiritual energy to dry his clothes, and then walked into the cave. He decided to find a way to return to the outer circle after absorbing the purple-robed old man. This place was really not a place for people to stay. It could be fatal at any minute!
