"Master, doesn't this waterfall look like the water flowing from the underground river we were in?"
The master and his disciples rampaged through the secret realm, eventually arriving at a massive waterfall.
Below this waterfall is a large and deep pool.
The waterfall cascaded down a very high cliff, and its immense force sent chills down their spines, even as they stood nearby.
"It's a good thing we didn't choose to come out from the waterfall. If we had been hit by that waterfall, we probably would have passed out."
If they are thrown into the pool while unconscious, it's uncertain whether they will live or die.
"This waterfall is so big, I wonder if there are any treasures at the bottom of the pool?"
Besides Lin Xue's team, there were several other teams surrounding the waterfall, observing its condition.
"Even if there are treasures down there, who could resist such immense pressure and swim to the bottom of the pool?"
"Others were knocked unconscious by the huge impact as soon as they went down, and it's uncertain whether they'll come out alive!"
Although many people speculated that there was treasure at the bottom of the pool, no one dared to go down and try.
They dared not go down, yet were unwilling to leave just like that, so a considerable number of people gathered there for a while.
"Isn't this the old woman who broke the formation before? Are you planning to go down and take a look?"
Several cultivators recognized Lin Xue and her companions, so they stepped forward to greet them.
"Such a dangerous place, and you experts don't even dare to go down there, but you send a few old, weak, and disabled people to scout ahead. You're a wicked little devil!"
The man's words were full of scheming, and Lin Xue didn't tolerate it, directly retorting.
"Grandma, don't be angry. After all, you are the master of formations. Why don't you check if there is a formation covering this place?"
"What if it's just a trick of the formation? Maybe everyone can go in and explore?"
Although the provocation failed, he was even rebuffed.
However, the cultivator was quite composed and didn't get angry at all.
"Formation?"
After hearing this, Lin Xue was actually a little tempted.
But she didn't want to indulge him, so she turned her face away.
“I don’t see any formation here. Disciples, let’s go. Instead of wasting time here, let’s try our luck somewhere else.”
Besides the monk who spoke, there were several others who recognized the master and his disciples.
Upon seeing Lin Xue and her group, those people quietly retreated a bit. Although they didn't want to encounter Lin Xue and her group again, they weren't in a hurry to leave.
They were all thinking that as long as they ran fast enough, those shameless old men wouldn't be able to extort them anymore.
Seeing that Lin Xue and the others had left, several people also left the area.
Since there's no formation protecting this place, and there's no way to jump directly into the deep pool to investigate, we should look for opportunities elsewhere.
Regardless of whether there is any treasure here or not, they certainly don't have the ability to take it.
And so, some of the people who had regained consciousness left.
Some, still clinging to illusions, left disheartened when they realized no one could do anything about the place.
Finally, the waterfall was deserted once again.
The old lady took her apprentice for a walk around the neighborhood, and after a long time, they returned to the same spot.
"Master, didn't you say there was no point in exploring this place?"
Li Zichen was a little confused. Why were they back again?
"Junior brother, you just don't understand!"
"Given what just happened, if we don't leave, I doubt anyone here will either!"
"The reason my master said that was to lure everyone away so he could secretly come back and check."
"Master, do you think what I said is right?"
After reprimanding his junior brother, Zhao Yunting turned to ask his master.
"Hmm, my eldest apprentice has indeed become smarter!"
Lin Xue looked at Zhao Yunting with great satisfaction; it seemed that her teaching during this period had been effective.
"But Master, I don't see anything unusual about this place."
"Just like everyone says, this place may look like it has treasures, but it's far too dangerous!"
"No one dares to jump down to check. After all, the pressure from this waterfall is so great that even if we are cultivators, we probably couldn't withstand such a strong impact!"
If a Golden Core Realm expert were to come in, they might dare to give it a try, but these are all just novices who have only reached the Foundation Establishment stage of Qi Refining.
If he jumps down, wouldn't he just be asking for trouble?
"Some things that can't be solved with strength can be solved by relying on..."
"Human wisdom!"
After saying this, Lin Xue gestured to 629.
Upon receiving the message, the other party retrieved a small submarine from their spatial storage.
Everyone knows how strong a submarine's pressure resistance is.
Only in powerful cultivator worlds that rely on their own strength would they neglect to rely on external forces.
"Come in. They say the end of science is metaphysics, but if metaphysics can't solve something, we might as well teach it to science!"
629, a small figure, sat in the driver's seat, Lin Xue sat in the passenger seat, and the two apprentices were arranged to sit in the back.
As the submarine was activated, they plunged into the enormous abyss like a cannonball.
"ah!!!"
The two apprentices turned pale with fright, especially the younger one.
Startled by Lin Xue and the others' actions, they screamed in surprise.
"Junior brother, calm down!"
"You pinched my arm until it's red. If you keep pinching it, the skin will probably break."
Although Zhao Yunting was also very nervous, he trusted his master and was able to remain rational.
However, the junior brother next to him was too agitated. You can be excited, but he actually grabbed his arm and pinched it hard.
Zhao Yunting forcefully pried open his junior brother's hands, grabbed his head and shook it hard a few times until Li Zichen calmed down.
After he regained his senses, he realized that they had reached the bottom of the pool.
The submarine is made entirely of transparent material, allowing a clear view of the outside world.
Moreover, as the submarine approached, the colorful stones, illuminated by a soft light, emitted a faint fluorescence.
"Master, these seem to be rare refining materials from the outside world. If we can bring all these stones back, we probably won't lack refining materials when we take in more junior brothers and sisters in the future!"
Zhao Yunting peered out the window, wishing he could immediately go out and pry off every gem he could see.
"No, even though we've come down, the water pressure outside is still very high. Do you see the water rushing down from above? Even at the bottom of the pool, it still has a great impact!"
"If we go out like this, we'll definitely be thrown off balance by this force. If we lose control of our bodies, it will be difficult for us to get out alive!"
We've reached the bottom of the pool, but figuring out how to dig up all the treasures from outside is still a problem.
Unable to think of a solution himself, Li Zichen could only turn his gaze to his master and the sect's chief steward in front of him.
