Chapter 174: Journey to the Nine Serene Springs



"Going to the Beast Region? A fortuitous opportunity suited for me?"

"Could it be, husband, that you're planning to take me to the Nine Serene Springs this time?" Cai Lin asked, having learned quite a bit about the continent's secrets recently.

"Yes, exactly the Nine Serene Springs!" Gu Fei nodded with a smile.

The Nine Serene Springs are located deep within the earth, typically regarded as the sacred land of the Nine Serene Deep Ground Python Tribe. When members of this tribe seek to advance their cultivation, they usually immerse themselves in the waters of these springs, which greatly aids in their breakthroughs.

Although the waters of the Nine Serene Springs are extremely cold and yin-infused, they are one of the best places in the world for snake-like magical beasts, who naturally lean towards yin energy, to refine their bodies.T/his chapter is updat/ed by nov(ê(l)biin.c/o/m

"Husband, the Nine Serene Springs are under the control of the Nine Serene Deep Ground Python Tribe, one of the three major beast tribes in the Beast Region. When do you plan to go there?" Cai Lin inquired further.

"We'll depart immediately!" With Gu Fei's current strength, there were very few places in this world that he couldn't reach. However, a significant part of his confidence came from the fact that Zi Yan, a Four-Star Dou Saint, would be accompanying him. With her by his side, there was little Nine Serene Deep Ground Python Tribe could do to threaten them.

"No time to waste, let's head out now!" Zi Yan said with excitement. The last time she visited the Beast Region, the opportunity she encountered allowed her to soar in cultivation like a rocket, reaching the level of Dou Saint. She was eager to see what new opportunities awaited this time.

The three of them quickly made their preparations and, just like before, quietly left the area. They left behind instructions for Xiao Yi Xian and Qing Lin to inform others that they had entered seclusion.

...

The Nine Serene Deep Ground Python Tribe's true stronghold lies deep underground. However, they also have many branches on the surface. Among the three major magical beast tribes in the Beast Region, they have the largest population. However, this large population also lead to impure bloodlines.

According to the elders of the Nine Serene Deep Ground Python Tribe, if this continues, their ancient bloodline might be completely diluted within a century, causing the tribe to degenerate to the level of ordinary magical beasts. This has led to significant internal conflict and debate within the tribe. But without a replenishment of ancient blood, this fate seems inevitable given their rampant reproduction rate.

...

Deep within the Nether Serpent Vein, there lay a massive, dark chasm, hundreds of feet wide and seemingly bottomless. A terrifyingly cold yin wind constantly howled up from the depths. Just standing near it could make a person's blood and Dou Qi feel as if it were freezing.

At the bottom of this chasm was the sacred pool of the Nine Serene Deep Ground Python

Tribe.

The Nine Serene Springs!

This was one of the primary objectives of Gu Fei and his companions.

There were no guards stationed near the chasm, as everyone knew that the frigid yin wind coming from the dark abyss was the best natural guard. Even a Dou Ancestor wouldn't dare venture too deep for fear of being trapped forever.

As the chilling yin wind continued to howl, the space nearby suddenly distorted slightly. Three figures slowly appeared- Gu Fei, Zi Yan, and Cai Lin.

Glancing at the dark abyss below, Gu Fei smiled and without hesitation, they broke through the icy wind and descended into the depths of the chasm.

The chasm was incredibly deep; a regular Dou Venerate would need about an hour to reach the bottom. But with their speed, the three of them reached the ground in just a few minutes.

As they neared the bottom, a massive lake appeared before them. The chilling yin energy that could freeze even Dou Qi emanated from this lake. The lake was enormous, with its waters a deep yellow color. Streams of yellowish mist, tinged with the scent of blood, continuously rose from the lake, swirling upwards.

"This is the legendary Nine Serene Springs," Gu Fei said as he slowly approached the enormous lake. The closer he got, the more he could feel a subtle yin energy trying to

infiltrate his body.
