Chapter 53: Bottomless Pool
"What do you think of the sun in the sky?"
Yu Qing suddenly asked this question.
Liu Runtai frowned slightly when he heard this: "We asked around, and 'some people' said it was a curse."
Chen Yingyu also said: "Sister, the curse should be related to that thousand-year-old evil spirit. If we find 'it', maybe we can find out everything."
Qiu Qiheng, who was standing by, seemed to be thinking about something, and then asked her, "The sun is not that simple?"
Yu Qing chuckled: "It is indeed a curse."
She turned to look at the distant skyline. "The person who strayed in never existed, and all the news you heard was just what 'it' wanted you to know."
Qiu Qiheng's pupils suddenly shrank, and he didn't even dare to think about the meaning of her words.
If that's the case, then everyone who comes here, isn't it——
Were you all deceived by that thing?
The real reason they can enter the grassland is because they want to come in, so they can come in.
Instead of 'it' wanting them in!
Yu Qing looked at Chen Yingyu again and said, "The place we are going to is very dangerous. You should take the two brothers back with you."
Her voice is as gentle as spring breeze and does not make people feel uncomfortable.
Since these five people met her, it was fate, and she didn't mind helping them.
If Chen Yingyu went with the two young men beside her, it would be an unbreakable death.
Moreover, all three of them are pure and kind people, and will not do evil in the future.
Chen Yingyu heard this and reacted subconsciously: "I'm not going back."
As a member of the Xuanmen Association, she couldn't afford to run away.
Cheng Yunbao and Liang Yuzhou were equally unwilling to go back.
However, Liu Runtai frowned and said, "Miss Yu is doing this for your own good. Just obey and go back."
He thought clearly that Yu Qing must know something, and might even know the location of the thousand-year-old evil spirit.
His three disciples are talented, but their cultivation level is only below average at best.
When Liang Yuzhou heard this, his tone quickened and he said nervously, "Master! If you and Master can go, how can we not go?"
He was Liu Runtai's first apprentice and the one who usually took on the most missions.
"You guys don't listen to me, do you?"
"Master!" Chen Yingyu wanted to say something, but was interrupted by Liu Runtai's cold voice.
"And don't follow me secretly. You don't want to be a burden, do you?"
His words were indeed a bit harsh, but if he hadn't said so, there was no guarantee that his three apprentices would follow him secretly.
Qiu Qiheng naturally had the same idea as him. This time the situation was extremely dangerous, and even he could not be sure that he could return safely.
The three of them stood there, unable to say anything else for a moment.
In fact, the most powerful thing they have ever met is a little ghost who has been dead for several years.
A thousand-year-old evil ghost, if they follow it, they will probably become a burden.
"You won't be able to help if you go," Yu Qing said frankly. After a pause, she added, "I have two friends in town. Why don't you look after them for me?"
"Just consider it your mission."
Although they had never seen Yu Qing's abilities, the skills she had demonstrated previously required powerful spiritual power. They thought that with her around, she would be able to protect the Master and the Master.
But if they followed him, regardless of whether they could help or not, he would also have to worry about their safety.
After realizing this, the three of them agreed. This was the best solution at the moment.
Liang Yuzhou then bowed to her with an extremely respectful attitude: "Miss Yu, please take care of Master and Master. I will definitely reward you handsomely later."
"Don't worry, sister. We will take good care of your friend." Chen Yingyu looked calm, but she couldn't help feeling sad, but she didn't show it.
So, they had no choice but to go back first, and they were even more determined to practice hard, so as to avoid such a situation from happening again in the future and being unable to help.
Before the three of them left, Yu Qing put away the umbrella and handed the light pink parasol to Chen Yingyu.
"Let's go, it's almost time."
Yu Qing said this, and the direction she was heading was exactly the skyline where the grassland in the distance connected to the horizon.
Qiu Qiheng and Liang Runtai followed and walked side by side with her.
None of the three spoke during this time, and the atmosphere seemed a little solemn.
The sun is shining brightly and the temperature is scorching.
Fortunately, people who practice cultivation are not affected by the temperature and have strong physiques, otherwise Qiu Qiheng's elderly body would not be able to hold on.
After walking for about half an hour, we could vaguely see a red-haired seven-tailed fox in front of us.
Liang Runtai supported Qiu Qiheng and took two steps, looking at the fox vigilantly.
While he was thinking about his chances of winning against the seven-tailed fox, he heard Yu Qing say -
"Don't worry, I have tamed this seven-tailed fox."
The Xuanmen people do not refine ghosts or raise monsters, and they have the best way to deal with all evil spirits.
It is not easy for a fox to cultivate. To be able to cultivate seven tails requires at least a thousand years of cultivation.
Qiu Qiheng couldn't tell how deep the seven-tailed fox's cultivation was, let alone that she was a seven-tailed fox demon.
Plus what Yu Qing said.
So the two of them subconsciously thought that the seven-tailed fox was a fairy rather than a monster.
Being able to subdue the fox fairy to help them, the two of them had a deeper understanding of Yu Qing's strength.
My heart is full of admiration.
If he could even tame a seven-tailed fox demon, what could a thousand-year-old evil ghost be compared to?
Qiu Qiheng looked at his apprentice and suddenly felt that they were not here to help.
It's more like they are here to add to the burden.
Walnut leaned lazily on the grass and glanced over with his fox eyes.
She didn't stand up, but waited until Yu Qing and the other two came up to her before saying, "We found it. It's right there."
The fox raised its front paw and pointed in a direction.
It was a bottomless pool, dark and mysterious, with a calm surface and even the sunlight seemed to be deliberately avoiding it.
"What's the situation?" Yu Qing asked.
"It's in the water," Kurumi yawned, glancing at the two people following behind her, "Are you sure you want to go down?"
The black water looks normal, but it contains a strong yin energy.
With the cultivation level of these two people, they might be swallowed by the evil spirit before they even reach the destination.
When Qiu Qiheng and Liang Runtai heard this, they took out the treasures they brought from the association from their cloth bags.
They are two round and transparent jade beads.
Liang Runtai pinched the jade bead and explained, "This is a mid-grade Yin-avoiding bead. It can resist the entry of Yin energy into the body."
However, looking at the Yin energy condensed on the pool, he thought that the Yin-avoiding beads could only last for three minutes.
So he looked at Hu Tao and asked, "Master Fox Fairy, how deep is this water?"
Walnut, known as the Fox Fairy: "..."
She never imagined that one day she would be called a fox fairy, but she was too lazy to explain.
"I haven't been down there yet."
Liang Runtai was now in a dilemma. He thought about going down and checking the situation himself.
Yu Qing glanced at the sun in the sky. It seemed that the temperature of the air had risen since they arrived...
At the same time, the water surface suddenly began to bubble like boiling water, and hot steam filled the air and hit my face.
It seemed like something was blocking them.
