Silent, dark.

This is Xiao Chen's most intuitive feeling at the bottom of the lake.

People with weaker psychological quality may not be able to bear this kind of feeling.

Many people like diving because there are all kinds of fish and all kinds of beautiful corals on the bottom of the sea.

Because of the beautiful scenery, I like sports like diving.

But the bottom of the lake is different, it's so dark here that you can't see anything.

Even with the searchlights, the visibility was less than ten meters.

There are strangely shaped stones everywhere, without any sense of beauty.

Less time is okay, but after a long time, it will be very boring.

Not to mention Xiao Chen, Bai Ye and others on the shore are already bored watching it.

"It's also fortunate that I didn't go with Brother Chen, it was really hard."

Bai Ye said.

"This is completely different from underwater diving."

"It seems that in a short time, it still won't end..."

The knife took out the cigarette, handed it around, and lit it.

"Has it been more than half an hour?"

"Ok."

Chi Feng looked at the time and nodded.

"It's just that the crack is very big, otherwise, sneaking in it will feel like a closed space, and it will be even more uncomfortable."

"..."

Xiao Chen slowed down, and kept repeating the movement of diving, which was very boring.

He also wanted to smoke a cigarette, but at the bottom of the lake, he definitely couldn't do it.

"Hopefully it leads to Tianjueyuan, otherwise...it's not in vain."

Xiao Chen found a big rock, sat on it, and took a rest.

He put away the Xuanyuan knife and released his spiritual sense, without any sense of danger.

"Where did the water monster go? Is it really not in this lake?"

Xiao Chen frowned. Judging from the monitoring, the last time the water monster appeared was three days ago.

Then, during these three days, several groups of people passed by, but the water monster never appeared again.

"Is it back to heaven and abyss?"

After Xiao Chen rested for more than ten minutes, he continued to dive.

He had forgotten how far he had dived, anyway, in the endless darkness, his sense of distance became very weak.

Suddenly, a bright light appeared in front of his eyes.

This lifted Xiao Chen's spirits, and hurriedly turned on the searchlight.

"Is it over?"

Xiao Chen took out the Xuanyuan Saber, operated the 'Chaos Jue', and got ready for the battle.

Although he felt that it was impossible to reach Tianjueyuan so soon, but...if it didn't lead to Tianjueyuan, it might be the lair of the water monster.

Xiao Chen slowed down, tried not to make any noise, and slowly swam forward.

"Quick, there is an abnormality below..."

Xiao Lin, who had been staring at the screen, also found something and shouted excitedly.

Hearing Xiao Lin's shout, everyone gathered around again.

"What's shining?"

"Isn't it coming?"

"Will you encounter a water monster?"

"..."

Everyone's breathing could not help but slow down, or even hold their breath.

They were all staring at the screen, and their heartbeats accelerated a lot, as if they were in the real scene, and they were with Xiao Chen.

"Goddess of Luck, you must bless Brother Chen."

Bai Ye thought silently in his heart.

Xiao Chen at the bottom of the lake held Xuanyuan Dao tightly, and slowly approached.

"what is this?"

Xiao Chen was surprised, is it an underground cave?

So high that the lake didn't fill it completely.

And the light comes from above.

It is very high, looking up, it looks like a well.

"Is that the sky? Why do I feel like I'm a 'frog in a well'?"

Xiao Chen looked strange, looking at the 'wellhead' above, wondering what was outside?

At the same time, he guessed that the underground cracks at the bottom of the lake did not extend all the way down, and some of them were parallel.

Above this, it may also be somewhere in the no-man's land, connected to this underground crack.

But it seems that it is very high, at least hundreds of meters, which makes the 'mouth' on it look like the size of a wellhead.

"Do you want to go up and have a look?"

Xiao Chen hesitated, but dismissed the idea.

Ahead, the cracks are still there, so we can move on.

Moreover, there are also traces of water monsters.

This is not the lair of the water monster, it's just a passing place.

Xiao Chen took off the diving goggles and oxygen mask, and turned on the communication equipment.

"Uncle Qi, are you watching?"

"Watching and watching."

There was a rush of responses, coming from the earphones.

"hehe."

Listening to these voices, Xiao Chen smiled and looked up.

"Did you see it? I'm now a 'frog in the well', and I don't know where this leads."

"Well, I saw... what does your place look like?"

Xiao Lin asked.

"It looks like an underground cave, at least five or six hundred square meters."

Xiao Chen sized it up and said.

"There are traces of water monsters everywhere, it stayed here..."

"That means you're looking in the right direction... haven't seen it all this time?"

"No, I suspect now that it has gone back."

Xiao Chen wiped his wet hands, took out a cigarette from the bone ring, lit it, and took a deep puff, showing a satisfied expression.

Finally... I can smoke one, beauty.

Xiao Chen was chatting with Xiao Lin and the others while swallowing clouds and mist.

"Uncle Seven, is there anything unusual in the lake?"

"No, what you looked like when you left is what you look like now."

"Well, then you all stay by the lake. If there are no water monsters, the lake is relatively safe."

Xiao Chen nodded.

"I'll take a break and get ready to continue."

"it is good……"

After chatting for a while, Xiao Chen turned off the communication, and took out the spiritual root of heaven and earth from the bone ring.

"@%..."

As soon as the spiritual root of heaven and earth came out, he looked at the strange environment, his small eyes were full of curiosity.

"Xiao Gen, look, is there any baby here?"

Xiao Chen touched the spiritual root of heaven and earth and said.

"#%..."

The Spiritual Root of Heaven and Earth didn't know what to say, it jumped up and down on the big rock, and then... a fierce one plunged into the lake, and swam happily in it.

"..."

Seeing this, Xiao Chen couldn't laugh or cry, I asked you to come out for treasure hunting, or for you to swim?

However, he didn't say anything more. If there was a baby here, this little guy would have gone there long ago.

From the looks of it, this place is just an ordinary underground cave, without any chance.

Thinking about it, if there was a chance, it would have been swallowed by the water monster long ago, and it was impossible for him to keep it.

"Xiao Gen, come up, I'm going to continue."

After smoking two more cigarettes, Xiao Chen yelled.

Heaven and Earth Spirit Root jumped onto the boulder, shook the water off his body, and jumped onto Xiao Chen's shoulder.

"Stay in the bone ring."

Xiao Chen put the spiritual root of heaven and earth into the bone ring, replaced the oxygen bottle, put on the oxygen mask and diving goggles, and went into the water again.

Crash.

He swam forward and soon passed through the underground cave, and the light dimmed again.

Xiao Chen turned on the searchlight, took a deep breath... like a lone brave man walking in the dark, walking alone.

"Cultivate hard."

Suddenly, Bai Ye on the shore said something and looked away.

"Ah? Xiaobai, why did you say that suddenly?"

Chi Feng asked curiously.

"Only by practicing hard can we be emotionally side by side with Brother Chen, instead of him walking in the darkness at the bottom of the lake while we watch in the sun."

Bai Ye said slowly.

"This feeling is very bad."

Hearing Bai Ye's words, everyone was silent and nodded.

"Yes, practice hard. Next time, even if Brother Chen goes to the mountains of swords and seas of fire, we will accompany him."

Xiaodao nodded heavily, sat cross-legged, and began to practice.

"You guys practice. I'll watch him. If there's anything else, I'll call you."

Xiao Lin said.

"Ok."

Everyone nodded and began to practice.

Originally, Li Hanhou was still a little hungry, and wanted to eat something... he didn't eat anymore. After practicing, he was no longer hungry.

Time... every minute and every second passed.

Xiao Chen in the underground crack could hardly feel the passage of time.

He passed two more underground caves, not as big as the first, but similar.

One of them had no light above it, so he lit it with a searchlight, but it was pitch black and he couldn't see clearly.

"Underground caves like this usually have bats and the like...these don't even have bats, which is unusual."

Xiao Chen sat on the big rock, lit a cigarette, and chatted with Xiao Lin without saying a word.

"Uncle Qi, what about Xiaobai and the others?"

"They are all practicing."

"Huh? So diligent?"

Xiao Chen was surprised.

"Well, Xiaobai and the others said that next time, whether you go to the mountain of swords or the sea of ​​fire, they hope to accompany you instead of letting you go on the road alone... So, they have to work hard to become stronger."

Xiao Lin said slowly.

Listening to Xiao Lin's words, Xiao Chen was moved in his heart.

"Hehe, Uncle Qi, tell them, haste makes waste, so don't be too anxious."

Xiao Chen smiled, and then changed the subject.

"The signal is getting weaker and weaker. Maybe I will disconnect if I go further... Three days. If I don't go back after three days, you will leave."

"it is good."

Xiao Lin agreed.

"Look at the big brother, don't let him run around, and take him out of no man's land."

Xiao Chen thought of something, and explained again.

"Just say what I said, I will join Nine Tails, don't let him be a light bulb."

He was really afraid that Nie Jingfeng would jump off the lake and chase after him just because of a single thought... Eldest brother can definitely do this. "

"Don't worry, I will take Senior Nie away."

"Ok."

"After confirming the path to Tianjueyuan, come back as much as possible, contact Jiuwei and go together."

"I know, I'm not afraid of something else."

"I won't say more, life is the most important thing, everything is alive."

"Hehe, Uncle Qi, I have understood this truth a long time ago, don't worry, you just go back to Longhai and wait for me."

"Well, don't keep us waiting."

"Okay... let's not talk, I will continue."

Xiao Chen turned off the communication equipment and continued to move forward.

half an hour later...

"Finally back, haha."

Li Jingheng waved his fan, looked at the lake in front of him, and laughed.

"There are people by the lake."

Elder Zhou stared at one place and narrowed his eyes.

"Oh? I plundered it first, and if there is a strong one, I will take it for my own use."

Li Jingheng glanced casually and didn't care.

They have done this kind of thing a lot, and they are already very skilled.

"No, look at that big guy... is it the one next to Xiao Chen?"

Suddenly, Mr. Zhou said in a deep voice.

"It's Xiao Chen and his group, they're back again!"
