The entire lake was as calm as a mirror.
Even with a gentle breeze blowing across the shore, the vast lake remained completely undisturbed.
Not even a single bird flew over the lake.
They were as if they were in a Jin-style sound zone, isolated from the outside world.
There wasn't even the sound of insects chirping around.
Xiao Zhenyu frowned and said, "Something's not right with this Hu."
"Powerful, powerful, powerful..."
As soon as Xiao Zhenyu finished speaking, echoes reverberated throughout the area.
Lu Haotian frowned immediately.
Tao Yue rolled her eyes with a look of utter disdain.
"Anyone who isn't blind can tell something's wrong."
The problem is, what's wrong?
Lu Haotian frowned and said, "Normally, places with echoes should have large reflective surfaces."
For example, high strength or high mountain.
An echo is formed when sound strikes a reflecting surface and bounces back.
But this place is so empty, apart from the mountain behind us and the black dot in the middle of the lake, there isn't even a tall building.
And where did that echo come from?
This doesn't make sense.
Tao Xing's heart sank immediately.
He asked the people present, "So what should we do now?"
Crossing the river?
There was no road ahead, only water.
"And this lake is so big, how are we going to get across?"
Tao Yue interjected, "Why don't we go back the way we came?"
Lu Mengmeng twitched her ears, directly shattering their beautiful wish.
"We can't go back."
You'd better find a way to cross the river quickly, otherwise you're probably doomed.
Everyone was startled by Lu Mengmeng's words.
Throughout the journey, Lu Mengmeng's formidable fighting skills undoubtedly made her the center of the team.
Moreover, she handled everything with ease.
This was the first time I'd ever seen her so on guard.
Tao Yue asked with a stiff expression, "Jimei, what's going on? You could have told me beforehand."
This will give me some mental preparation.
"When the time comes to run, you should know how to run."
Lu Mengmeng said firmly, "A whole bunch of reptiles are coming this way."
Judging from the sound, there must have been at least several hundred thousand.
I think you can't beat them..."
Without a doubt, the snakes encountered here could not possibly be the non-venomous green snakes found in rural areas.
As an ancient secret realm, if it doesn't give you any random attributes instead of snakes, that would be considered giving you extra care.
Based on the level of danger they had encountered along the way, Lu Mengmeng had no idea that the owner of this secret realm would be so kind.
As expected.
Before long, the Tao siblings, whose hearing was better, heard a rustling sound that sent chills down their spines.
Tao Yue suddenly felt a shiver run through her body.
"Then what are we waiting for? Let's swim over there!"
Without thinking twice, she plunged into the lake.
With a "plop!", Tao Yue plunged into the diving shore, but no matter what she did, she couldn't surface.
She couldn't even lift herself up when she was in the water.
The group was immediately shocked.
Tao Xing and Xiao Zhenyu quickly grabbed Tao Jiao's feet and pulled him back.
Upon touching the water, he felt weak all over and his whole body sank downwards.
It seemed poised to sink into the river with it.
Fortunately, the place wasn't deep, otherwise there really wouldn't have been a way to rescue them.
Lu Mengmeng frowned, puzzled, and asked, "Is this the Weak Water?"
What is the Weak Water?
Xiao Zhenyu asked the question without even realizing it.
He considered himself to have grown up in a family of sorcerers and to have been well-informed since childhood.
There's no reason I haven't heard of this before.
Lu Mengmeng is feeling very conflicted right now.
This world is very similar to her original world, but there are also many differences.
For example, in this world, because spiritual energy has been completely extinguished, there are no cultivators.
Naturally, there is no such thing as "weak water".
But the fact that this Weak Water appeared in this realm made things truly bizarre.
How exactly did this Weak Water come about?
Lu Mengmeng didn't keep the people present waiting any longer, as someone explained the nature of the Weak Water.
"Fenglin Island is located in the center of the Western Sea, covering an area of 1,500 li. The island is surrounded by the Weak Water on all four sides, so small that even a feather cannot float on it, and it is impossible to cross."
To put it simply, air travel is prohibited in this area, so people can't float on it.
No one can get through it.
If I'm not mistaken, that black dot in the middle of the lake is Fenglin Island.
Many phoenixes live there.
If someone wants to sign a contract, finding one or two would be ideal.
The phoenixes here are different from the hybrid birds we see today.
It is a purebred phoenix.
If one could obtain a contract, it would certainly be of great benefit to Doufapo.
Under normal circumstances, cultivators would not reveal such opportunities to others.
Lu Mengmeng is no exception.
Because the creatures on the island might be demons, Lu Haotian was certain that if he told the truth, he would definitely form a phoenix contract.
Lu Mengmeng herself was not very happy.
After all, if the little cub is bound by a contract, there will be even less time to play with her in the future.
Who knows how many snacks they secretly buy for Little Phoenix!
