"What's wrong with this water?" Zu An was taken aback. He had just come out to check and hadn't found anything unusual.
The Demon Emperor didn't say anything, but simply tore a feather off his robe and threw it in.
The Golden Crow clan can be considered birds to some extent, so many of their clothes and robes are decorated with feathers.
Feathers used in the Demon Emperor's clothes are naturally of the highest quality, as light and soft as if they were nothing, making the clothes warm in winter and cool in summer.
But these soft feathers, when they fall onto the lake, don't even float; instead, they sink straight down like stones.
"What's going on?" The people around were all startled.
The Demon Emperor said, "The water in this lake is so shallow that even a feather cannot float on it; it is truly a dead end."
The Golden Crow Prince immediately flattered him, saying, "Fortunately, Father Emperor's divine skills are unparalleled, otherwise we would have drowned long ago in such a desperate situation."
The Demon Emperor stroked his beard, clearly quite pleased.
Actually, he was in great danger just now and almost lost his life in there. This lake water is really special and not ordinary water. If he had been trapped in it and couldn't get out, he might have really lost his life there.
However, just like an eighty-year-old man still likes an eighteen-year-old girl, even when he gets old, he still can't resist the thrill of showing off.
Seeing grandmasters like Yan Xuehen and Yun Jianyue, as well as old friends like Yu Yanluo, who looked at him with admiration, he still felt a surge of pleasure throughout his body.
Wu Liang's expression was too exaggerated; his flattery was too much and came across as fake, so I simply ignored him.
That Zuan guy, wait, what's he looking at?
Looking at the vast lake before him, Zu'an thought to himself, "The phrase 'even a feather cannot float, it is impossible to cross' describes the legendary Weak Water. Could this place before me be the Weak Water?"
It looks more like a lake than a river.
"What are you looking at?" The Demon Emperor was worried that he had discovered some clues. The Unknown Land was too mysterious, and he was about to experience the Five Signs of Decay of Heaven and Man. This exploration was related to whether he could continue to live, so he dared not relax in the slightest.
1200ksw.
"Nothing, I was just wondering what this lake is made of," Zuan replied casually.
"Have you come up with any results yet?" the Demon Emperor pressed.
"If you haven't come up with any results, how am I supposed to?" Zuan shrugged, as if he had asked a stupid question.
Demon Emperor: "..."
"Stop wasting time, lead the way." The Demon Emperor snorted, not really angry about it, but instead turned his gaze to the vast, towering mountains to the side.
If there truly is a way to achieve immortality in the unknown lands, it must be found there.
Zuan shrugged, but didn't refuse, and went ahead to scout the way.
The three women instinctively moved closer to him. Yu Yanluo transmitted her voice through her inner energy, saying, "Should we find a chance to escape later?"
Yan and Yun opened their mouths as if to say something, but Zu An shook his head: "It's pointless. With the abilities of an Earth Immortal, we can't escape at all. Moreover, even if we secretly transmit our voices with our Yuan Qi at such a close distance, it would probably be difficult to escape the Demon Emperor's notice."
Yu Yanluo was startled and subconsciously looked at the Demon Emperor.
The Demon Emperor said calmly, "You're young, but your insight is extraordinary."
This clearly acknowledges that he could indeed sense the conversation between the two.
Yu Yanluo's face paled slightly, and Zu An patted her hand to comfort her.
The reason he knew this was because the Little Demon Queen hadn't dared to communicate with him telepathically on the high platform, for fear that the Demon Emperor beside her would hear.
Oh dear, if the Demon Emperor finds out about my relationship with the Little Demon Queen, I'm doomed.
"Father, let me place restrictions on them to prevent them from causing any trouble," Crown Prince Jinwu said, seizing the opportunity. He had just fought with several people, each of whom was highly skilled. In addition, having learned the true identities of Yan Xuehen and Yun Jianyue, he suddenly felt a strong sense of crisis.
"With me here, there's no need for that," the Demon Emperor said calmly. Below the Earth Immortal level, everyone is an ant, let alone Yan Xuehen and Yun Jianyue, who are the two with the highest cultivation levels, who are both seriously injured. There's even less need for that.
"Yes~" Crown Prince Jinwu was somewhat unconvinced, but worried that continuing to persuade him would seem like he was belittling his father's cultivation level.
At this moment, Zuan stopped: "I've found something."
In front of them was a huge rock that looked like a tortoise, and in front of its head stood a stone tablet.
Both the tortoise and the stone tablet were overgrown with weeds and surrounded by very thick vines, and you could vaguely see words written inside.
Upon seeing this, Prince Jinwu immediately stepped forward and unleashed a wisp of Jinwu flame, burning away the weeds and vines to the ground, revealing the true form of the stone tablet.
The stone tablet was made of an unknown material, yet it remained completely unharmed despite being scorched by the Golden Crow Sacred Fire.
There were indeed two characters written vertically on it, but these two characters looked like patterns. After looking at them for a long time, everyone looked at each other in bewilderment.
The Demon Emperor thought to himself: This seems to be ancient script. I had seen it by chance before, but unfortunately I didn't recognize it.
He turned to Wu Liang: "Do you recognize what's written on it?"
Wu Liang leaned closer to examine it: "This seems to be an ancient script, but it has been lost. I've only seen it in some ancient tombs..."
The Demon Emperor interrupted impatiently, "Stop talking nonsense."
Wu Liang was startled and hurriedly said, "I only recognize the first character, which seems to be the character '羽'. The second character is too complicated, and I've never seen it before."
"Feather?" The Demon Emperor frowned slightly, wondering what this meant.
The others were all lost in speculation, but Zu'an had a strange expression on his face. "These are oracle bone script!"
