Their entire bodies were submerged in the water, and the feeling of the energy became stronger.
The energy in the lake water was very pure. Furthermore, the deeper one went, the greater the water pressure, the stronger the energy became.
Lan Jue took Zhou Qianlin with him to absorb the pure energy. This energy only needed to be slightly converted to be absorbed by the body. Moreover, less than 20% of the impurities were filtered out.
This meant that if they cultivated in the lake, they would be able to cultivate faster than outside.
In other words, the Heaven and Earth Yuan Qi in the depths of the lake was much richer than outside.
The deeper they went, the dimmer it became. However, this was not a problem for Lan Jue. Lightning surrounded them, illuminating their surroundings.
The lake was very clean, but there were not many creatures in it. Occasionally, they would see one or two fish, but they were not big.
Like the other creatures on the Barrows, these fish were not aggressive. When they discovered them, they would even come over and look at them curiously.
Whenever this happened, Lan Jue had to quickly restrain his power of thunder and lightning to avoid hurting these creatures in the water.
The depth of the lake was much deeper than Lan Jue had imagined. Soon, they had dived to a depth of 200 meters.
However, they still had not reached the bottom.
Here, Lan Jue's spiritual power could only detect about 100 meters. He could feel that they would reach the bottom of the lake if they continued to dive for more than 100 meters.
The depth they were at was something he had not been able to detect before.
The world at the bottom of the lake was very quiet, and the clear lake water felt like it was embedded in a crystal.
With Lan Jue's help, Zhou Qianlin did not need to worry at all.
Lan Jue had been the one to help regulate her internal energy.
She only needed to constantly feel the water around her.
The energy contained in the water was enough.
They swam forward for another ten minutes.
They had finally dived to a depth of 300 meters. Under the illumination of the thunder and lightning, they could finally see the bottom of the lake.
The bottom of the lake was very flat, and there were all kinds of pebbles everywhere. These pebbles were of different colors, giving them a unique sense of beauty.
Each piece was like a sparkling and translucent jade.
Lan Jue could sense through her mental power that these pebbles contained some energy.
Although the energy was not strong and did not even meet the requirements of the lowest level of energy gems, there were enough of them. Perhaps the energy contained in the lake came from these pebbles.
The feeling of exploring the world was wonderful. Even if there was nothing in the end, the experience of diving into the deep water was enough to satisfy Lan Jue.
At this moment, he suddenly felt a suction force coming from the front.
This suction force was not pulling at their bodies.
Instead, it was absorbing his spiritual energy.
Lan Jue was shocked and quickly withdrew her spiritual power.
Then, he looked forward.
There was nothing different in the deep lake. Everything was so calm, and there was nothing at all.
But Lan Jue's heart couldn't help but beat faster.
He was absolutely certain that there was something at the bottom of the lake.
Pulling Zhou Qianlin with him, Lan Jue activated his Discipline. A web of electricity wrapped around them, and they slowly made their way towards the source of the suction force.
At the same time, he carefully withdrew his own psychic energy.
They crossed the hundred meters in the blink of an eye. Suddenly, Lan Jue felt the water in front of them ripple strangely. A gentle suction force appeared, but this time it wasn't pulling at their psychic energy. It was pulling at their bodies.
The two of them looked at each other. Where did the suction force come from in such a calm lake?
Lan Jue's heart skipped a beat, but he didn't continue forward. He turned to Zhou Qianlin and pointed upwards.
The Soulcaller gem:
Lan Jue: We're probably in the right place.
Just to be safe, we'll go up first. We'll wait for the Wine Master and the Pauper, then we'll come down together.
Zhou Qianlin nodded, and gave Lan Jue a thumbs up. "Alright."
Caution was the right thing to do!
If Lan Jue had been alone, he would have continued onward to explore the area. But he had Qianlin with him, and for safety's sake it was better to be safe.
However, just as the two of them were about to make contact with the Wine Master, the suction force suddenly grew stronger.
Suddenly, the originally weak suction force in front of them grew stronger. Before they could react, a strong stream of water had already sucked them in.
Lan Jue and Zhou Qianlin were both ninth level seventh rank Adepts!
They were the best of the best.
However, in the face of this powerful current, they discovered to their shock that they actually didn't have much strength to struggle.
The suction force swallowed them up, and Lan Jue discovered they'd been sucked into a giant vortex.
This vortex was formless and invisible. It could not be seen with the naked eye, but it could be felt.
The terrifying suction force forcefully pulled them down. That huge force was not something that the human body could resist.
Lan Jue pulled Zhou Qianlin into her arms. The blue light around them changed to a golden color. It was like a giant cocoon that enveloped the two of them.
Dizziness overtook them, but in Lan Jue's arms, Zhou Qianlin felt her heart stop. She felt calm and comfortable.
Suddenly, the dark world around them brightened, and the suction force disappeared.
The two of them felt the pressure around them vanish. Then, suddenly, their bodies felt empty, and they began to plummet.
Lan Jue's reflexes were quick, and she used her Discipline to stabilize them.
Then, they were stunned by what they saw.
They were in a beautiful, wondrous world. Mountains rose and fell as far as the eye could see, stretching as far as the eye could see.
On the hillside, there were large tracts of grape fields. The grapevines, which were less than a meter tall, were neatly arranged in rows and rows.
Between each grape field, there were rows of big trees, as if to distinguish something.
If it was just like that, it wouldn't be considered magnificent. But here, although the sky was also blue, it emitted a faint halo of water ripples.
Yes, the Spirit Mirror Lake was actually at the top of this world.
What was even more strange was that there was sunlight here. A sun that looked a little strange was suspended there, emitting a faint halo.
In the distance, other than the grape fields, there seemed to be many other crops planted. Everything looked so peaceful.
Unfortunately, this peace didn't belong to Lan Jue and Zhou Qianlin. Because when they appeared here, they were already surrounded.
A total of eight people surrounded them in the center.
These eight people were all dressed in coarse clothes, like farmers. Each of them held something that looked like a hoe in their hands, and they looked at them with unfriendly eyes.
Lan Jue and Zhou Qianlin still had water dripping from their bodies. In order to not let their bodies be exposed, Zhou Qianlin still nestled in Lan Jue's arms.
"Everyone, we mean no harm." Lan Jue used her Discipline to evaporate the water on the two of them, and raised her hand.
These people looked like farmers, but all of them were floating in the air, and they didn't have wings behind them.
This meant that they were all Level Nine Arcanists.
One of the oldest exuded an aura as deep as the sea, which was above Lan Jue's level nine, rank seven.
Facing so many strong people at the same time, it was naturally better not to make a move!
The elder looked at them coldly. "Who are you, and why are you here?
You'd better have a good explanation. "
Lan Jue smiled bitterly. "We're here to look for you. I didn't think we'd actually find you." He didn't hide his purpose.
He couldn't say that he and Zhou Qianlin were diving enthusiasts, and accidentally came here.
They didn't have any diving equipment on them.
"Looking for us?" The elder was surprised.
Lan Jue nodded. "Yes, we're here to look for the descendants of the three gods of wine. You must be them.
Do you think we can talk about it? "
The elder's face darkened, and his eyes flashed with shock. He suddenly shouted, "Take them!"
The other seven people raised their hoes at the same time, and a strange scene appeared. Each of them was covered in a layer of blood-red light, and a powerful pressure pressed down on Lan Jue and Zhou Qianlin from all directions.
Lan Jue had been observing their movements while they were talking. Seeing them suddenly make a move, he couldn't just sit back and wait for death.
Blinding lightning burst out from Lan Jue and Zhou Qianlin. Lan Jue pointed his right hand forward, and a strong electric light burst out from his body.
It was a golden ring of light.
The moment the ring appeared, it paused for a moment, and then expanded outwards. A low, muffled sound followed.
It was the sound of a ring of light exploding in all directions.
The eight people's abilities hadn't fully fused yet, and the powerful explosion shook them. The blood-red light that had just condensed was instantly blown away.
Lan Jue's attack didn't stop there, because he had only blown away the abilities of the other seven people. The blood-red light of the elder in front of him was still strong, and it spread rapidly, protecting the other seven people.
However, Lan Jue wasn't fighting alone. When the first golden ring exploded, he waved his right hand, and a fingernail-sized golden light flew towards the elder in front of him. At the same time, another golden ring of light expanded.
This time, the owner of the golden ring wasn't Lan Jue, but Zhou Qianlin.
"Boom, boom — —" Two explosions sounded one after another.
