Chapter 1587 - Sudden change on the summit
"Something not right?"
After a while, on the peak of the Mo Sword Mountain, the middle-aged man frowned and exclaimed in a low tone of surprise.
The other 100 plus Celestial Phenomenon Ascendants that followed closely behind the peak looked at each other in dismay, and their brows revealed surprise and bewilderment.
At the edge of the Pool of Destiny, the black fog was still rolling.
The white-colored odor that had been continuously rising from the pool had already completely disappeared, and even the white and misty water of the pool had become a bit clearer.
"This... It doesn't seem to be the same as what we've heard? " A lady in red with a pretty face couldn't help but mutter.
"This kind of water can still be effective?" Yet another voice resounded. The one who spoke was a skinny Black Costume Old Man with white hair and a beard.
"Whether it's effective or not, let's take it back to the city first!" The middle-aged man pondered for a bit, then said, "Once we get the water, we must leave the Black Sword Mountain. If the nearby dead spirits come, we won't be able to escape even if we want to."
"Right, right, we have to hurry."
"We need to leave quickly. Although we attacked the other few locations of the Undead Spirits to shift their line of sight, they will understand very soon. Our target is this' Pool of Destiny '."
"..."
"Jiang Liang, get some water!" Everyone else, pay attention to your surroundings! " The middle-aged man abruptly waved his hand.
"Yes sir!"
Everyone answered and immediately dispersed, vigilantly observing their surroundings.
On this mountain peak, the death aura was very dense. If one didn't pay careful attention, then perhaps even if the dead spirit invaded within 100 meters, it wouldn't be able to detect it.
"Whoosh!"
Almost at the same time, a petite man dressed in green who was facing a rather young man in green suddenly shot towards the "Pool of Destiny".
With a flick of his finger, the young man called Jiang Liang arrived at the edge of the round pond. With a thought, a huge bucket that seemed to have been carved from jade appeared in front of him. However, just as he grabbed the jade bucket and was about to fill it with water, he froze and stared straight at the round pond.
"Jiang Liang, what are you waiting for? Hurry up and get the water. We don't have much time left!"
The middle-aged man soon noticed Jiang Kuang's abnormality and could not help but frown. He immediately let out a low shout and a hint of anger could be seen between his brows.
"Commander, there's … There's someone here! "
As if he had awoken from a dream, Jiang Dang turned his head and yelled out loud, his face showing unconcealable astonishment.
"Someone's here? "Who's there?" The middle-aged man's face was grim, and he was even more dissatisfied. Seeing Jiang Kuang making such a big fuss out of nothing, the surrounding people were also stunned.
"Commander, at the bottom of the pool! There's someone at the bottom of this pool! " Jiang Liang pointed at the round pond and hurriedly explained.
"What?"
The moment the middle-aged man heard that, his expression changed. As soon as his voice fell, his figure had already appeared beside Jiang Kuang and his gaze that was as sharp as a blade fell onto the "Pond of Destiny". Through the water in the pool that was tens of meters deep, he could faintly see the bottom of the pool that was emitting a white glow.
At that instant, a lump of black shadow was faintly visible at the bottom of the pool. One could vaguely tell that it was a person who sat cross-legged.
"How is this a human, it's clearly a dead spirit!"
The middle-aged man's expression became even more unsightly. Although he did not see the "Heart Ring" within the black shadow, but besides the dead spirit, who else could it be?
"Is the water in this' Suicide Pool 'the nemesis of the dead?"
An indescribably astonished voice could be heard, but quite a number of people had gathered over due to their curiosity. When they saw the situation at the bottom of the pool, they all had extremely astonished expressions.
"That is only a legend after all. No one has really seen it."
"It definitely won't be us human cultivators. If it was really a human cultivator, the undead would not have let him stay at the bottom of the pool and would have long thought of all the ways to get him out. "
"From what I see, it might be a black rock that looks like a human, or a sculpture that the undead threw in."
"The possibility of it being a human or a dead spirit is indeed low."
"..."
Everyone started chattering and speculating at the same time.
"It doesn't matter what is at the bottom of the pond, we cannot afford to delay any longer. Jiang Liang, get some water immediately and then leave!" The middle-aged man's voice was low and deep, but his tone was unquestionable.
"Yes sir!"
Jiang Shan answered and scooped a spoonful of water from the jade bucket into the pond. In an instant, he filled the bucket with water, and with a thought, he stored the jade bucket back into his spatial space.
"Let's go!"
Glancing deeply at the black shadow at the bottom of the pool, the middle-aged man no longer hesitated. With a low voice, he turned around and flew away.
"Go?" Where to? "Since you're here, then stay behind!" At this moment, a sharp laughter suddenly reverberated from the peak of the mountain.
"Hmm?"
The middle-aged man had only dashed out a dozen meters when he heard what Duan Ling Tian said. His pupils constricted and he squinted as he looked over.
Within the churning black fog, the figures of nearly two hundred undead spirits actually flashed and appeared, surrounding them in a fan shape. The Qi that leaked out from their bodies was extremely powerful, and the "Heart Ring" on their left chest that continuously leaked out blood-red light, also revealed their cultivation level and strength.
Nearly two hundred undead, and not a single one was below the sixteenth step. Furthermore, even among them, the highest cultivation, was at the twenty-first step, and there were four of them.
The difference in strength between the two sides was already extremely great.
After understanding the current situation, the middle-aged man's expression became extremely serious, and the expressions of the hundred plus people around him instantly became extremely ugly. Seeing nearly two hundred dead spirits approaching step by step, everyone remained silent. The tense and depressing atmosphere began to linger around the crowd.
"Kill!" After a short moment, the middle-aged man suddenly shouted out, his figure was as fast as lightning, he brandished his weapon and rushed towards the Death Spirit like an arrow that had left the bow.
"Kill —"
Jiang Kuang and the hundred other Sky Magi Sect Elders roared out at the same time, and then they followed behind the middle-aged man, charging towards the group of undead spirits.
Shouts, fighting sounds, and the clashing of Strength Qi immediately resounded.
A great battle erupted at the summit of the mountain.
At the bottom of the "Suicide Pool", Tang Huan's heart was still as calm as still water.
Compared to the beginning, the speed at which he absorbed and refined the "Grandmist Immortal Liquid" had increased by several times. As his body continuously transformed, the power formed by the "Grandmist Immortal Liquid" became more and more relaxed as it merged with his body. This, in turn, increased the speed at which he transformed.
Ever since he started to refine the Grandmist Immortal Liquid, although the number of Dao Crystals within Tang Huan's Nascent Soul did not increase, he could clearly feel that his strength had been increasing almost every second. Once his flesh body transformed into the true "Celestial Body of the Sun", his strength would definitely experience a qualitative leap. However, at that time, if he wanted to successfully condense a Dao-crystal, he would probably need to use up more energy.
