784 Bottomless Pit (2)
In ancient times, every time those dragon princesses went ashore to fall in love with human scholars, they always liked to give this kind of pearl.
The Water Repelling Pearl that could take effect at the bottom of the black sea or even the bottomless pit was not inferior to a high-grade Earth-rank artifact.
There were only a few in the current cultivation world.
“Fellow Daoist Nine Nether, I’m sorry for not preparing your share.”
“There are only three top-grade Water Repelling Beads in the Crystal Palace.”
“However, with Fellow Daoist’s ability, you probably don’t need this pearl, right?”
The three of them carefully used the Water Repelling Pearl to protect themselves. Just the deep sea pressure alone was enough trouble for them.
In comparison, Jiang Li’s ease and satisfaction formed a sharp contrast with them. That kind of Water Repelling Pearl was indeed useless to him.
After adapting for a period of time, the four of them began to use various methods to increase their weight to accelerate their descent.
Soon, everyone had hundreds of thousands of kilograms of things hanging on their bodies.
This made them able to maintain a high diving speed in the black seawater that was increasingly chaotic and difficult to use escape techniques.
With the three of them leading the way, Jiang Li saved a lot of time.
They nimbly avoided some spatial traps and seemed to fall endlessly.
Due to the fact that there was a lot of fire and earth attribute energy mixed in the seawater below, his Dragon Race bloodline could not unleash its full effect.
The deepening underwater pressure made his capillaries contract and his lips turn pale.
Even he began to feel some pressure.
Falling in the darkness, there was nothing to use as a reference point. This made time seem especially long.
Soon, they no longer knew how deep they had dived.
By contacting the parallel minds of the outside world, Jiang Li could still accurately determine the time. Then, he fell for 36 hours.
Finally, at a certain moment, they acutely sensed something.
“The pressure on my body suddenly decreased!”
The four of them supported each other, proving that they were not wrong.
The surrounding water pressure became smaller as if it had returned to 70 minutes ago!
They continued to fall. After another seven minutes, the pressure on their bodies indeed returned to its original level.
“It’s a cycle!”
“That’s right, it’s a very hidden spatial fluctuation. In this passage of the bottomless hole, two spaces are connected to each other.”
“Every time we fall to the node below, we will be teleported back up. This cycle continues until we die of old age. This is the secret of the bottomless pit!”
In the senses, they were still descending.
However, the water pressure on their bodies began to fluctuate like a roller coaster.
With their strength, how could they not sense it?
At this moment, they had fallen into a repeated passageway. No matter how long they fell, they could not reach the bottom.
“This is where the three of us stopped last time.”
“We’ll have to rely on Fellow Daoist Nine Nether next.”
In order to prevent Jiang Li from abandoning them, they had been unwilling to reveal all the information earlier.
Only then did they reveal the reason why they needed the jeweled golden trident.
After the first attack on the Crystal Palace, these three guys had used the Water Repelling Pearl to explore the bottomless pit.
However, they were blocked by this circulation passage and could not continue deeper no matter what.
At that time, they could only slow down and search bit by bit. In the end, they discovered three round holes and the words of two mermen on a stone wall in this repeated passage.
The three holes were exactly the same in shape and size as the golden trident. Only then did they return to the Crystal Palace and snatch it again.
After another cycle, they immediately began to slow down their fall.
The four of them each took charge of a direction and began to search as they slid down.
In this bottomless pit, most probing methods were suppressed to a certain extent.
This prevented them from descending too quickly.
It took nearly a day to search and discover the three round holes they mentioned on a stone wall.
In order to prevent them from joining forces to lie to him, Jiang Li even checked carefully.
These three small holes were very old and did not seem to have been poked out recently.
After checking, he took out the jeweled golden trident and inserted it.
Sure enough, the trident stabbed in smoothly.
Then, he sensed that a gem at the end of the trident suddenly loosened, as if it could turn.
This exaggerated trident was actually the key.
He pressed the gem and gently turned it a few times.
The surrounding seawater shook slightly, and the surrounding space seemed to have changed.
The two overlapping spatial nodes were gone.
Without the obstruction of the node below, a faint white light shone from the bottom of the bottomless hole.
This time, not to mention the three reincarnations of the Immortals and Buddhas, even Jiang Li felt a special aura.
It was extremely pure and powerful, and the quality was something Jiang Li had never seen before.
Was that immortal qi?
“Below!”
The moment that aura appeared, the other three immediately released the rope and dived down as quickly as they could.
The three people who had agreed to share the immortal qi together had already revealed their ambitions before they even obtained it.
Jiang Li was not surprised at all.
This was because he did not plan to share the immortal qi with these three guys.
Retracting the trident, he also used his Dragon Race’s Water Escape Technique to chase.
The dragon blood in his body had reached the level of a Dragon Palace descendant.
Jiang Li’s underwater movement speed was naturally faster than the three.
Soon, he caught up and saw a white carp made of pure energy below.
He continued to run down like lightning.
“That’s the immortal spiritual qi!”
The four of them reached out and grabbed the white carp.
The powerful Daoist Five Plague was at the front and was about to obtain it first.
However, at this moment, a purple-red tongue that was clearly poisonous suddenly shot out from the Grass Lady’s mouth and wrapped around his leg.
After being pulled, his advantage was gone. Instead, it was Daoist Death Gate who took the initiative.
Just as he was about to succeed, a pitch-black chain shot over from behind and slowed him down. It was Jiang Li who attacked.
In order to prevent others from obtaining the immortal spiritual qi, from the moment the four of them dragged each other down, they started fighting in the not-so-wide passageway.
Their strength was all top-notch in this world. Even if they held spiritual qi balls in their hands and smashed people, their power could not be underestimated.
The aftershock of the collision spread.
A large area of the bottomless hole collapsed. Countless gravel rolled down and collapsed with them.
They did not care about being buried by these rocks. They continuously used their methods to attack their plastic teammates.
The shock wave spread out along the bottomless hole.
The huge jellyfish above was awakened. It angrily released light spots, wanting to find the guy who woke it up.
The shock wave that followed below seemed to have awakened something.
Jiang Li was currently stabbing the Human Emperor’s Battle Halberd into Daoist Death Gate’s stomach.
From the bottomless hole further down, a suction force came.
The suction force was even stronger than the former City God’s Hall.
He pulled the four of them down.
The terrifying suction force actually made them unable to resist.
After a moment of dizziness, Jiang Li crashed into a wide space.
However, what was surprising was that there was no water there.
Under the bottomless hole in the deep sea, there was actually such a dry place.
What was this? It had the ability to suck them over.
Jiang Li checked his surroundings and discovered that there were doors, windows, and a staircase that led up.
However, the door could not be opened, and the window could not be opened.
“This… seems to be a pagoda?”
