Chapter 1436 troubles
In the holy land, the Holy Spirit held Xiao Zhen's wounded figure with both hands and walked step by step into the abyss along the stone steps.
The abyss has no bottom, only endless darkness. The more the Holy Spirit goes down, the more intense the darkness outside his body becomes, as if even the stone steps will absorb light. When all the light comes here, it will disappear without a trace.
If it weren't for the holy light emitted from the Holy Spirit, I would probably not see a few fingers if I put my hand in front of me.
As powerful as the Holy Spirit, the holy light on his body can only illuminate the three-foot range.
Because it is too dark, you can't see the surrounding mountain walls at all, and you don't know if there is anything else next to it. There are only steps under the feet of the Holy Spirit. Because of the holy light, you can also see some vague shadows.
In the end, even the holy light on the body of the Holy Spirit was swallowed up by darkness, and the world was as dark as the dead.
After a while, the Holy Spirit came to a lake.
The surroundings were still dark and dull, but the water in the lake was radiant, shining like a glowing diamond in the dark.
"Walking into the lake, you may be reborn and have the power to defeat the enemy." The Holy Spirit placed Xiao's body by the lake and said calmly.
Xiao Yiran still looked like a skinned and bloody man, and the injuries on his body were not healed.
Struggling to get up, Xiao walked towards the lake without saying a word.
"Don't you want to know where that lake is?" The Holy Spirit suddenly said again.
"I just need to know that it is enough to have the power to defeat An Tianzuo here to take revenge." Xiao's throat recovered a lot. Although his voice was still a little hoarse and harsh, he was able to speak.
"The alien dimension cannot gain a foothold on the earth. Any alien dimension creature will be suppressed by the earth's rules when it comes to the earth. Even the invincible strongman at the end of the world is no exception. Therefore, if an alien dimension creature wants to descend, it must rely on the bodies of the local creatures on the earth to retain some of its combat power."
The Holy Spirit paused and continued, "But later a powerful man from another dimension discovered a place where he could not be suppressed by the rules of the earth and could use his own power at will."
"Isn't that a holy land?" Xiao said.
"At first there was no holy land, there was only one lake." The Holy Spirit continued: "Within a certain range of that lake, the power of alien organisms will no longer be suppressed, but once they are far away from the lake, the suppression of the power of the earth's rules will reappear. So the alien powerhouse went into some research, hoping to use the water in the lake to help alien organisms completely get rid of the suppression of the earth's rules."
"But no matter how many powerful alien creatures are exposed to the lake, their bodies will melt into the lake like snowflakes. After that, the strong man found many alien creatures and local creatures on earth for experiments, but the results were very surprising. No powerful alien creature can withstand the power of the lake, but local creatures on earth will not be affected by the lake. For you humans, this terrifying lake water is no different from ordinary lake water and will not cause harm to your bodies."
Xiao just listened quietly, without interrupting the Holy Spirit.
The Holy Spirit looked at the lake and continued, "But the local creatures on Earth who were down the lake died one by one, and none of them could come back alive."
"Why? Didn't you say there is power to avenge me?" Xiao turned around, and his face without any facial features was facing the Holy Spirit, questioning in that harsh voice.
"Later, the strong man checked a lot of human historical resources and myths and legends, and finally realized that this lake was called Trouble." said the Holy Spirit.
"Troubles? I have never heard of any area of myths and legends, there is such a lake." Xiao thought for a while and said.
"You may not have heard of the name of this lake, but you must have heard of it on the other side of the lake." The Holy Spirit looked into the distance of the lake.
Xiao's eyes were destroyed and he could not see anything, so he had to ask, "Where is the other side?"
"On the other side." The Holy Spirit's answer surprised Xiao.
"This lake leads to the other shore?" Xiao was surprised and happy. He knew what the two words on the other shore mean: "Take life and death as this shore, Nirvana as the other shore, abandon all troubles, and obtain the other shore where infinite merits and wisdom?"
"This is just a guess. No one knows whether the other side of the Lake of Troubles is the other side, because no one has ever reached there. Although this lake is small, even the strong people at the end of the world cannot reach the other side. Only by swimming through the lake can we reach the other side. However, no one who has come back alive after the creatures that have come down to the lake has been able to come back alive."
"Then what's the use of me going to the lake?" Xiao asked.
"I once saw with my own eyes that a man who was absolutely impossible to live swam through the lake of troubles, lived to the other side, and could never be promoted to myth with a pure human body. He actually broke the taboo and promoted to myth with a pure human body." The Holy Spirit said calmly.
"Who is he? What happened in the end?" Xiao asked.
"You don't need to know this, you just need to know that the wounds on your body are difficult to completely recover. Even if you don't die, you will only be a useless person in the future. Now there are only two roads in front of you, swim through the lake of troubles and go to the other side, be reborn in Nirvana, or..."
Before the Holy Spirit could finish his words, Xiao jumped into the lake with a thud.
Strangely, the lake water looks clear and transparent, as bright as flawless crystal. You can clearly see the bottom of the lake, not too deep.
But after Xiao jumped down, no matter how hard he struggled, his body could not float on the water and kept falling down.
It looked like the lake water had no buoyancy at all. No, it should be said that it was not only lacking buoyancy, but also like an abyss with terrifying suction, pulling Xiao's body to sink continuously.
And no matter how Xiao struggled, there was no slight tide of waves in the lake, nor any sound of water, and it was as quiet as dead.
"It's not a good habit to not wait for someone to finish his words." The Holy Spirit looked at Xiao who was sinking in the lake and said to himself: "Even if it is a natural disaster-level creature on earth, after entering the lake, it will be dragged into the bottom of the lake like countless invisible resentful spirits, and eventually disappear into part of the lake. Over the years, there are only that person who can reach the other side, and there are no less than 100,000 creatures in the lake."
...
Zhou Wen originally wanted to take Yaer to the west area for a walk, but who knew that after Li Xuan learned the news, he actually asked to follow Zhou Wen to come to the west area with him.
"Old Zhou, I heard that the very popular female host has her home in this city." Li Xuan drooled and looked around.
"Which female host?" Zhou Wen asked casually.
"It's the one who hosted the show with Professor Gu, named Su Yi, who is popular now." Li Xuan was still looking around, and he didn't know what he was looking for.
