Brother Li screamed in fear and subconsciously tried to struggle, but his body was sinking into the lake at a certain speed and did not melt.
"How do you feel now?" someone asked impatiently.
Brother Li's face changed in shock. "My body... my body is falling uncontrollably. I don't feel any pain... Hurry and pull me up!"
You Fuyue frowned. She swung out a silk ribbon, which wrapped around Brother Li's upper body with a 'swish'. When she tried to pull him out, she found that no matter how hard she tried, she couldn't pull him up.
By this time, the liquid had soaked through the silk ribbon. You Fuyue felt herself being pulled forward, almost falling into the lake.
clang!
The silk ribbon was violently cut by a long sword.
An arm was put around You Fuyue's waist and she was led to the open space behind.
After the two of them stood still, Huangfu Xiangyao quickly released his hand from her waist, his eyebrows moving slightly, and he asked in a softer tone, "Are you okay?"
"Thank you." You Fuyue pursed her lips, and a strange feeling flashed through her heart.
She seemed to recall something and warned, "Miss Yun Zheng sent me a message before we entered the lake. She said the lake was treacherous and there was only a quarter of an hour left before it was safe to enter. She told me to think twice before entering."
Huangfu Xiangyao nodded, "I and several others have received her message."
When You Fuyue heard this, he immediately understood that it seemed that the geniuses of Qiongtian were very united.
Huangfu Xiangyao looked uneasy, and said apologetically, "I'm sorry for cutting your silk ribbon without your permission. I will compensate you after we leave the secret realm."
You Fuyue looked up at his handsome face and nodded for some reason.
Actually, she still has a lot of...satin ribbons.
There were dozens of geniuses present, and more than a dozen of them, after seeing Brother Li fall into the lake and be safe, jumped in as well, driven by their lust.
The other Tianjiao didn't jump into the lake because of various considerations. They didn't have the black token, and they didn't know when Yun Zheng would emerge, so they left the area and went to other places to search for the token.
…
The people outside the secret realm could not see the scene where Yun Zheng and the dozen or so young geniuses who jumped into the lake with her were at the moment.
The practitioners sitting in the audience looked confused and curious.
"What's in that lake?!"
"What's the origin of that mysterious grass?"
Meanwhile, on the high platform, Patriarch Feng's expression changed. He knew of the silver lake's existence, but he didn't know much about it. He only knew it existed at the same time as the mural, and that it was incredibly dangerous, so even he didn't dare enter it lightly.
Unexpectedly, in this secret realm ranking competition, one of the black tokens would be placed in the middle of the silver lake, which made the difficulty dozens of times higher.
Patriarch Feng pursed his lips. These tokens were placed there by the great ancestors...
When Yuchi Hong, who was standing by, saw Yun Zheng doing such a stupid thing, he was immediately delighted. This little bitch could finally stop jumping around!
The head of the Gong family narrowed his eyes slightly, and a dark look flashed in his eyes.
At this moment, Yuchi Hong looked at Zongren Wu and Dizun, wanting to make a few sarcastic remarks, but he saw that they looked calm and composed. He swallowed back the words he was about to say, his smile disappearing in an instant, and his mind was in turmoil for a while.
Could it be that little bitch Yun Zheng still has a chance to come out? !
…
The other side.
Yun Zheng pinched Jiuying's head with her right hand. After she was completely submerged in the lake, she first felt a tightness in her chest, and then she arrived in a small world.
"Ouch!"
Jiuying screamed in pain, and the whole beast fell heavily to the ground, flattening an area of black grass.
Yun Zheng raised her eyes, and what came into her sight was a stretch of black grass that seemed to stretch as far as the eye could see. The grass swayed in the breeze, making a rustling sound.
At this moment, she felt the spiritual power in her body dissipating wildly.
Jiuying's wounds were healing, and in the blink of an eye, the four severed heads grew back.
Jiuying laughed crazily, "Hahaha, you're dead. You can't get out once you come in! Neither you nor that damn dog can get out! Go to hell!"
Its tone was full of resentment and hatred.
The moment it finished speaking, Yun Zheng raised her right hand expressionlessly and slapped one of its heads.
Snap——
With an extremely loud sound, Jiuying's head was slammed away and his neck was stretched a lot.
"Damn humans!" It cursed angrily, and its nine mouths opened and closed at the same time, making a particularly unpleasant and harsh sound.
Just when Jiuying was about to attack Yun Zheng again, a little boy with a particularly delicate and cute appearance appeared beside Yun Zheng.
Jiuying's pupils widened and he quickly retracted his head.
"Tao...Lord Taotie..." Jiuying swallowed.
Taotie tilted his head and asked, "Can I eat half of your body?"
"Please spare my life, Lord Taotie!" Jiuying trembled all over, begging for mercy tearfully. As he spoke, he transformed into a humanoid figure. He was obese, with flat, ordinary features and eyes the size of green beans. Without hesitation, he sank to his knees.
He said with tears in his eyes, "Master Taotie, I really am not tasty, but I can be your servant and find lots of food for you."
"I will be your most loyal servant!"
Yun Zheng's mouth twitched slightly: "..."
This ferocious beast, Jiuying, really speaks one way to people and another to ghosts. He also particularly likes to give up his dignity in order to save his life.
