Chapter 144: Strange Lake
The three of them had been in a coma and no one knew how much time had passed.
Soon, the sun sets and it will be dark.
There is a large lake in the valley below the Yunhai Cliff, and they fell into it without any harm.
Seeing that it was already evening, the three of them could not move around any more. It must be very dangerous here, so they had to spend the night here and prepare to find a way out tomorrow.
Wen Yingxue and Long Yi were picking up dead branches around to make a fire, while Nie Chubai went into the forest to hunt some prey.
It had been a while since Wen Yingxue and Long Yi had lit the fire, but Nie Chubai still hadn't come back.
"Why is your master so slow? Could he be in danger?" Wen Yingxue asked worriedly.
Long Yi frowned and shook his head, saying: "How about I go find a master?"
Wen Yingxue immediately refused, "Let's wait a little longer. We can't all go into the forest one by one. It would be troublesome if we get separated."
The terrain of Yunhai Cliff is very dangerous. No one dares to set foot under the cliff. It is not an exaggeration to say that it is a primeval forest.
There must be a lot of dangers in there.
Just when the two were about to go find Nie Chubai, Nie Chubai finally came back with two pheasants and a bag of wild fruits.
Nie Chubai said, "I don't know what's going on. There's not a single animal within a five-mile radius. I was planning to just pick some wild fruits, but I ran quite a distance before I found two pheasants."
After hearing what Nie Chubai said, Wen Yingxue couldn't help but feel a little concerned: "Something seems a little strange here. Let's rest here for a day and leave tomorrow morning."
Nie Chubai nodded, then began to kill, pluck and open the chicken.
"Master! Madam! Look!" Long Yi suddenly shouted.
The two had never heard Long Yi's voice so flustered, and they couldn't help but turn their heads to look at him, and then they were also stunned.
Just now, the last ray of sunlight in the sky disappeared, and the lake that saved their lives underwent a strange change.
The entire lake was divided into two halves. The half closer to them was completely red and dazzling.
The other half emits a bright light blue glow.
"What on earth is going on?" Wen Yingxue asked with wide eyes.
Nie Chubai stood up, walked to the lake and touched it with his hand. Then he turned around and said, "It's still warm. At first I thought it was the sun that made the water so warm. Now it's dark, but the water is still hot."
Wen Yingxue immediately went to the side where the blue light was coming from and touched the lake water. She immediately shivered from the cold: "The water here is icy and freezing."
What exactly is this place? Why is there a lake like this?
"Long Yi, come here and let me use your dagger." Nie Chubai suddenly shouted.
His Broken Blade fell off the cliff with them and should have sunk to the bottom of the lake by now.
Long Yi brought two daggers, one was lost, and the other was still there.
Long Yi hurried over and handed the dagger to Nie Chubai. He took it and cut his finger directly, and blood immediately flowed out.
Wen Yingxue also came over and saw Nie Chubai's actions. She immediately understood what Nie Chubai was trying to do.
He put his bloody finger into the red-shining lake water, and after soaking it for a while, the three of them immediately made a surprised discovery.
The wound on Nie Chubai's finger was healing slowly at a speed visible to the naked eye.
"It seems that we are not dead. The wound on my back and the child are all due to this red light water." Nie Chubai raised his hand. The wound on his finger now only had a white mark.
"Since the water here can heal wounds, what about the water over there? What is its function?" Wen Yingxue asked.
The three of them came to the water with blue light again. Nie Chubai put his hand into the cold water again and stirred it twice, but nothing special happened.
Wen Yingxue speculated, "Do you think the water here can cure all poisons?"
After hearing Wen Yingxue's words, Nie Chubai nodded and said, "That's possible. I'll give it a try."
As he spoke, Nie Chubai took out a hidden weapon, which was poisoned.
Nie Chubai used a leaf to make some blue light water and put the hidden weapon in. As soon as the water came into contact with the hidden weapon, bubbles immediately appeared. After a while, the leaf was corroded and rotted.
"It has no detoxifying effect." Nie Chubai said.
"Then, would it be beneficial for cultivation?" Wen Yingxue asked, thinking of this possibility.
Nie Chubai's eyes lit up immediately, and he jumped into the blue water. He closed his eyes and practiced. Soon he opened his eyes and said, "That's right. When practicing here, the speed of internal energy circulation is very fast. It's much faster than at the Eight-Angled Mysterious Ice Lotus."
This is not a dangerous place at all; it is a paradise for cultivation!
"Hurry, let's eat the chicken first. After we finish eating, we will start practicing." Wen Yingxue said immediately.
What they need most now is to increase their strength. Although Yin Hongyi and Feng Yi are on the cliff, Ye Junyan is cunning and he may not die.
Nie Chubai came out immediately and gave Wen Yingxue roasted chicken.
Wen Yingxue’s situation is special now, she can’t starve.
Wen Yingxue's appetite has skyrocketed. She finished an entire chicken by herself. Nie Chubai was even frightened.
"Xue'er, is it really okay for you to eat so much? Will you feel bloated?" Nie Chubai asked.
Wen Yingxue felt it and found that she was only 80% full. She shook her head and said, "I don't feel full at all. I feel like I can eat a little more.
I don’t know what’s going on, but other people vomit all the time when they’re pregnant, but I’m always hungry.”
Nie Chubai came over again to feel Wen Yingxue's pulse, and when he found nothing wrong, he let go.
"It's okay, eat it whenever you want. I'll make it for you every day." Nie Chubai said.
"Yeah." Wen Yingxue nodded and picked up two more wild fruits to chew.
After eating, the three of them entered the blue water and began to practice.
Nie Chubai originally didn't want Wen Yingxue to go into the water, but Wen Yingxue insisted. Plus, there was the red water over there, so there was no need to worry about Wen Yingxue's health.
"If you feel uncomfortable, tell me immediately and don't force yourself." Nie Chubai reminded again and again.
Wen Yingxue nodded repeatedly and was almost swearing before Nie Chubai let her go.
On the other hand, Long Yi had already closed his eyes and started practicing.
The internal force method that Wen Yingxue is practicing now was taught to her by Yin Hongyi. Yin Hongyi's method of practice is more suitable for women.
It is better than the Shitian Pavilion's mental method that Nie Chubai gave her.
Calming her mind, Wen Yingxue began to practice. As Nie Chubai said, her internal energy circulated extremely quickly.
The three of them began to practice, but they did not notice that a huge black shadow suddenly flashed in the center of the lake, where red and blue intersected.
