Ye Qing glanced at the pond, and his heart skipped a beat. Since he had arrived at the deepest part of the second layer of the Demonic Dragon Secret Ground, there was nothing more to be said. He had to give the pond a try.
With a slight movement, Ye Qing took the lead and entered the pond. There was a thick layer of ice on the surface of the pond, but it did not affect Ye Qing at all.
A cluster of Molten Green Lotus Fire appeared in the center of his palm, and Ye Qing instantly shattered the ice and entered the pond.
While moving stealthily inside the pond, Ye Qing's eyes flickered as he sensed the fluctuation of space.
There was a space inside the pond, and it was a miniature world!
Ye Qing had already touched the door of the miniature world. All of a sudden, a huge stream of water swept past, bringing Ye Qing's body to the deepest part of the pond, and opened the door to a miniature world!
Ye Qing's eyes lit up. Indeed, there was another miniature world inside the pond, and it was very different from the one in the Demonic Dragon Secret Ground.
Green mountains and clear waters appeared before Ye Qing's eyes, as if he had arrived at another world.
In this miniature world, everything was green, and there were many trees. Looking into the distance, there was a towering mountain, and on top of the mountain, there was a long sword that shone with a cold light!
Ye Qing's eyes lit up. That wooden long sword contained a powerful energy, and it should be the key to opening the third layer of the Demonic Dragon Secret Ground!
"Mister Ye, that wooden sword is very important!"
Huangfu Lan said, her eyes filled with anticipation as she looked at the wooden sword on top of the mountain.
That wooden sword was the legendary Five Elemental Swords. In order to open the third layer of the Demonic Dragon Secret Ground, one must obtain the Five Elemental Swords!
The so-called Five Elemental Swords were the five elemental swords of metal, wood, water, fire, and earth. They were located in the miniature worlds of the second layer of the Demonic Dragon Secret Ground.
With the wooden sword in front of him, Ye Qing's body moved, and he flew into the air. Soon, he arrived at a high altitude and dashed toward the wooden sword.
Using the Heaven's Wander Steps, Ye Qing's speed reached an unimaginable level. In a short period of time, he approached the wooden sword on the mountain peak!
"Whoosh!" The wooden sword emitted a sword energy that filled the sky and spread in all directions. Many trees on the mountain peak were turned into dust on the spot. The scene was extremely terrifying!
No one was controlling the wooden sword. Just the Sword Qi released by the wooden sword was already very terrifying. It was simply frightening.
If not for Ye Qing's proficiency in swordsmanship and his strong physical body, he would have perished under the impact of the Sword Qi.
"What a powerful wooden sword!"
Ye Qing's eyes narrowed. He sent a message to Huangfu Lan and Ah Kun, telling them to stay away from the wooden sword. Otherwise, they would be injured.
Huangfu Lan knew how powerful the wooden sword was. She had already taken out the Clear Sable Sword to defend herself. She didn't dare to get close to the wooden sword.
On the other hand, Ah Kun was fine. His physical body was unparalleled, and the wooden sword couldn't hurt him.
The wooden sword was only a hundred meters away from Ye Qing. However, Ye Qing's body stopped. He didn't immediately take the wooden sword.
This was because Ye Qing released his Divine Soul and found a terrifying existence in the surroundings!
Under the investigation of Ye Qing's Divine Soul, a terrifying mechanical beast appeared. It was a mechanical snake that emitted a terrifying aura.
The snake's body was very long. It was at least two thousand meters long. It looked very ferocious and terrifying. It was created by humans who were proficient in mechanical techniques. Its combat strength was comparable to experts in the sixth tier of the Divine Treasure Realm.
Moreover, the mechanical snake seemed to have intelligence. It knew how to control its body and take the initiative to attack humans.
The mechanical snake's mission was to protect the wooden sword. When the mechanical snake saw that someone was coming, it didn't hesitate and immediately launched a fierce attack.
"Boom!"
A thick tail swept over. Ye Qing was the first to bear the brunt of the attack and was hit by the mechanical snake.
Ye Qing's body floated back quickly with a solemn look on his face. The mechanical snake was indeed powerful. If Ye Qing didn't use the Ruyi Jingu Bang, he could only try to use his flames to restrain the mechanical snake.
Huangfu Lan stood behind Ye Qing with an anxious look. She was worried for Ye Qing. The mechanical snake was too strong and had intelligence. It wasn't an ordinary mechanical puppet and was difficult to deal with.
"Young Master Ye, be careful!"
Huangfu Lan exhaled with worry written all over her face.
Ye Qing stayed where he was and didn't attack for the time being. He wanted to see how strong the mechanical snake was. Now wasn't the time to launch a fatal attack.
"Boom!"
The mechanical snake's tail swept over with great force and terrifying power.
However, Ye Qing relied on his tyrannical physical body to forcefully resist the attacks of the mechanical snakes. His body flickered with a brilliant golden light as he displayed the Indestructible Golden Body!
In terms of physical strength, Ye Qing didn't lose to Ah Kun in his Rock Leviathan form. A mere mechanical snake couldn't break through his defense.
As time passed, more and more martial artists entered the mini world. When they saw the wooden sword, their eyes were filled with desire.
It was rumored that after gathering the Five Elemental Swords of Metal, Wood, Water, Fire, and Earth, one could open the third level of the Sinister Dragon Mystery Dimension. Once the third level was opened, one would definitely obtain many treasures!
The third level of the Sinister Dragon Mystery Dimension was a treasure trove for everyone. Everyone present wanted to obtain it.
"Look, that's the legendary Five Elemental Sword!"
"It's just a wooden sword from the Five Elemental Swords. However, each Five Elemental Sword is extremely valuable."
"It's rumored that when the restriction of the Sinister Dragon Mystery Dimension is opened, the Five Elemental Swords will appear. No wonder even the members of the Heaven Leaderboard are here!"
"That's right. The legendary members of the Heaven Leaderboard are elusive and rarely appear. Now that they've come to the Sinister Dragon Mystery Dimension, Peak God Taba definitely isn't the first!"
The crowd discussed animatedly. The appearance of the wooden sword made everyone's eyes burn with passion.
However, after seeing the powerful mechanical snake, everyone immediately dispelled the thought in their hearts.
What a joke. It wasn't that easy to obtain the wooden sword. At the very least, one would have to break through the mechanical snake!
The powerful mechanical snake could easily kill the geniuses in the fifth tier of the Divine Treasure Realm present. Not many people could fight against the powerful mechanical snake!
Perhaps only the members of the Heaven Leaderboard would have the strength to fight against the mechanical snake.
"Look, isn't that the genius Ye Qing who killed Peak God Taba?"
"That's right. He's Ye Qing. I wonder if he can kill the mechanical snake!"
"In my opinion, no matter how strong Ye Qing is, he still won't be a match for the mechanical snake. Rumor has it that the mechanical snake's vitality is extremely strong. It won't be that easy to kill it."
"The mechanical snake is most afraid of flames. If Ye Qing's flames are strong enough, he might have a chance."
The crowd discussed animatedly. When they saw Ye Qing fighting the mechanical snake, they stopped in their tracks. Some of the smarter geniuses wanted to take advantage of the situation when Ye Qing was exhausted. If they could successfully kill the mechanical snake and take the wooden sword, it would be a great opportunity for them.
A wooden sword alone wouldn't be able to open the third level of the Sinister Dragon Mystery Dimension. However, the members of the Heaven Leaderboard who came to the Sinister Dragon Mystery Dimension would definitely buy the Five Elemental Swords at a high price. Any type of Five Elemental Sword could fetch a high price.
