Chapter 1548 A Finishing Touch in Water
Fang Qiu nodded.
If they had some of their men in the open and some in the dark, they wouldn’t be discovered by other forces. However, it was indeed a good idea to hide among their own forces and organizations.
As long as they hid well, it would definitely play a surprising role in the snatching of the relic.
On the hill, with the withdrawal of the Gospel Division, the Huaxianese completely occupied the entire hill.
In the meantime, news of what had just happened quickly spread.
“The Huaxianese have occupied the area where the Laozi Relic is located and driven away the Gospel Division, one of the top forces in Zhongdong!”
“It’s amazing! John Doe of Huaxia sent an S-level expert flying with one punch. The Gospel Division doesn’t even dare to fight back.”
As the news spread, all the forces from all over the world were shocked.
“John Doe actually sent an S-level expert flying with one punch?”
“Is this true? When did John Doe become so powerful?”
“In addition to John Doe, the Huaxianese have four S-level experts. If these four people are as strong as John Doe, it means that the Huaxianese have terrifying power.”
“It would appear that we must be careful.”
“They drove away the Gospel Division, one of the two top forces in Zhongdong, as soon as they arrived. Moreover, they directly injured an S-level expert of the Gospel Division. Huaxia is determined to be enemies with the whole world this time.”
“Humph, we can’t defeat them, but some other forces may get to do it!”
“Haha, John Doe is obviously making an example of them. He defeated the Gospel Division to warn us, but we won’t be fooled.”
“It seems that we have to send more experts there. Otherwise, we may not be able to stop John Doe.”
For a moment, the major forces and organizations all over the world who wanted to compete for the Laozi Relic began to send more experts to Zhongdong. Otherwise, with the strength that John Doe had shown, they would gain nothing from the relic.
…
On the hill.
After occupying the entire area, everyone guarded their own areas. Without any hesitation, John Doe, the four patriarchs, and Master Numinous immediately began to search and check the location of the Relic Mysterious Realm, trying to find a way to open the gate of the relic.
To Fang Qiu and the others, since they had come here, all they wanted was the relic.
It would be great if they could enter the Laozi Relic and take away the things there before the forces of other countries arrived.
In this way, they could avoid a great battle.
Even if they knew that it would be difficult to take away the things in the Laozi Relic before the people from other countries and forces arrived, they had to at least try their best.
Therefore, everyone’s attention was focused on the Laozi Relic.
Because they were all big shots in Wulin and most of them had searched for the ancient ruins, everyone had their own way to find the gate of the relic. From the beginning, they used their own methods to search for the exact location of the gate on the hill.
Someone even dug out the video recording the gate of the relic and tried to find the exact location of it from the video, only to find that it was so far away that they couldn’t see it clearly at all.
Meanwhile.
Just like when Fang Qiu was in Jiaxiang County, he was observing the srroundings while spreading the stones in all directions, trying to trigger the gate of the relic in this way.
The hill was neither big nor small, but its environment was not complicated. At a glance, one could find that it was a hill covered with green vines and seaweed, which appeared very ordinary.
In this case, Fang Qiu threw stones for a long time, but he still couldn’t find any clue.
He looked at the ground but only to find that there was nothing special about it.
“Could it be on the plants?”
With a flash of wit, Fang Qiu began to observe the plants on the ground carefully as he walked. Soon, he came to the center of the whole hill.
“Eh?”
Fang Qiu was originally here to observe the plants. As he walked, he suddenly missed a step. Then, he quickly took a step back, squatted down, and pulled the vines on the ground where he had missed.
Whoosh!
As Fang Qiu lifted the vines, a big net naturally woven with vines was immediately lifted, revealing a pool with a diameter of about five meters hidden below.
It was a pool that looked extremely clear but was so deep that people couldn’t see the bottom at a glance.
“There are no rivers in all directions. How could there be such a fine pool on this hill?”
Fang Qiu was astonished.
On the way here, he had been observing.
There was a river a few kilometers away. However, there was practically no stream of water near this mountain range. However, the vegetation on this mountain range was much more exuberant compared to other places.
Fang Qiu had always thought that it might have something to do with the Laozi Relic, but now it seemed that it was because of this pool.
“Is this an underground water source?
“In such a special place, there is actually a water source like a well, and it’s right in the middle of this hill?”
At this point, Fang Qiu suddenly had an idea.
From a high altitude, this hill looked like an eye. The sunken area was like the whites of the eyes, and the whole hill was like the eye. But in the center of the eye, there should be another area, a small spot with a deeper color than the original color of the eye.
Now it seemed that this well-like water source should be that spot.
“A finishing touch in water?”
Fang Qiu suddenly had an idea.
He immediately jumped into the water and dived all the way to the bottom.
Now, Fang Qiu seemed to understand a little.
According to the ancient times of Huaxia, this mountain range was likely to be where the Dragon Vein was located, and this hill was the essence of the entire mountain range.
This place contained the entire mountain range.
Perhaps it was precisely because of the uniqueness of this terrain that Laozi was drawn here to leave behind a relic.
Of course, since the whole mountain range was supported by this single spot, there must be a jade mine under this spot. Without a large amount of Qi of Heaven and Earth, this mountain range would never have such spirituality.
On the other side, the others also saw John Doe jump into the water.
Because they couldn’t find the relic after searching for a long time, after seeing this scene, everyone came up one after another to see what was in the pool.
However, when they came to the side, they couldn’t see the situation at the bottom of the water at all, not to mention John Doe.
“What a clear pool.”
“What a deep pool.”
Everyone was surprised.
Although they were surprised by the existence of the pool, they did not jump directly like John Doe. Instead, they stood on the side and waited.
They would know whether there was anything unusual with the water when John Doe came up.
Under the water.
After diving into the water, Fang Qiu didn’t hesitate at all. He immediately activated his internal Qi and swam quickly toward the bottom of the water. He swam for more than a minute.
After diving for about 30 meters, he finally saw the bottom.
Although the water was very dark, Fang Qiu could see everything in the water because he had night vision.
Glancing at the bottom of the pool, Fang Qiu immediately found that something really appeared at the bottom.
It was a stone tablet.
It was about half a meter tall, surrounded by a layer of moss. It looked very ancient.
He swam quickly to the stone tablet.
Fang Qiu took a closer look and found that an ancient Chinese character, Tao, was carved on the stone tablet.
“Sure enough, there’s something unusual. The gate of the relic should be on this stone tablet.”
Fang Qiu nodded to himself as he pondered.
He had checked all the things outside and confirmed that nothing was related to the ancient ruins except for this pool.
In this pool, the only thing that had something to do with Laozi was probably this stone tablet.
Thinking of that, Fang Qiu directly touched the stone tablet.
He touched it.
Boh!
As expected, there was a wave of energy fluctuation on the stone tablet. A layer of ripples directly spread out from the tablet and quickly spread toward the top of the pool.
The next moment-
Woo! Woo!
The sound of flowing wind and water spread, which startled the people around the pool. They looked down at the pool one after another.
Then, they saw a layer of sparkling ripples breaking out of the pool and rushing straight into the sky.
“It’s the gate of the relic!”
“This is it.”
“Is it really underwater?”
The four patriarchs and Master Numinous were extremely surprised.
They didn’t expect that the gate of the relic was really at the bottom of the pool and that John Doe would find it.
Seeing the appearance of the gate, everyone immediately began to try to crack it without hesitation.
At the same time, Fang Qiu immediately swam up and came out of the water quickly. He also watched the gate of the relic and began to crack it.
He took a closer look.
Sure enough, the ancient characters in the Tao Te Ching appeared on the light curtain of the gate of the relic. These ancient Chinese characters kept flowing on the light curtain like water.
Thinking that there might be some connection between the Laozi Relic and the Mozi Relic, Fang Qiu immediately began to try the method he used when he entered the Mozi Relic, but it didn’t work at all.
Fang Qiu immediately tried another method by cracking the gate with the method of entering the ruins in Egyptt.
But it still didn’t work.
Fang Qiu even used the entry method of the relic in Zangjiang to see if the characters on the gate of the relic could form a formation.
After working for a long time, Fang Qiu found that these characters had nothing to do with the formation.
He tried all the methods.
Since he couldn’t find a way to enter, Fang Qiu directly took out his mobile phone and began to search for the whole Tao Te Ching.
After he got it, Fang Qiu quickly recited the whole Tao Te Ching word by word and then looked at the gate of the relic again.
While reading the words on it, he secretly arranged them according to the whole Tao Te Ching that he had just memorized in his mind.
As he did it, he found that one character was missing from the whole Tao Te Ching at the gate of the relic.
It was the character, Tao.
When Fang Qiu found this, his eyes suddenly lit up.
“Found it!”
Fang Qiu beamed happily.
Just then-
“Raaaargh!”
In the distance, an earth-shattering roar of a tiger suddenly came.
Someone was coming.
