Invincible Divine Doctor of the Beautiful Lady-Chapter 843 - 817: Underground Palace

Tangyu kept diving deeper, and the further down he went, the harder it became. He had to dive a full hundred meters to reach the bottom of the pool.

The water at the bottom was incredibly terrifying. A single drop of it on an ordinary person would undoubtedly freeze their skin to death. The Chilling Evil Qi within the water also frantically wanted to invade Tangyu’s body, but it was blocked by his Immortal Spirit Qi.

"I finally reached the bottom. It’s a hundred meters deep—a truly frightening depth. People below the Earthly Realm probably wouldn’t be able to make it down here," Tangyu thought to himself, scanning the surroundings with his mind. The bottom of the pool was surprisingly vast, with a diameter of over ten meters. However, the area around him was sealed off, causing Tangyu to frown slightly.

"Sealed off? Impossible. This water is flowing, not stagnant, and I can sense that the Chilling Evil Qi is emanating from down here." Tangyu touched the walls around him, finding them to be ice-cold to the touch, and even he could feel a heart-piercing chill.

"Such terrifying ice, it must be thousand-year ice. Ordinary strength can’t break it. Even if I attack with all my might, I might not be able to destroy this thousand-year ice. Moreover, it’s unclear how thick this ice is. Strange, this place is indeed strange and likely has a significant connection with the Holy Land ruins."

While pondering, Tangyu quickly surveyed the entire cold pool, which resembled a cage of ice.

The more peculiar it seemed, the more intrigued Tangyu felt.

"I should go up and ask Sister Qian Shanxue to take a look." Tangyu immediately made up his mind, realizing he knew too little about such matters, so it was best to have Qian Shanxue examine it personally.

Soon, Tangyu returned to the surface of the cold pool.

The goblin was waiting anxiously, occasionally staring into the cold pool: "Why hasn’t he come up yet? Could Mr. Tang have met with some mishap? Oh dear, if something really happened to Mr. Tang, how would I explain it?"

As the goblin was worrying, a violent disturbance came from the cold pool. The goblin’s eyes instantly focused on it, and sure enough, Tangyu emerged from the cold pool and landed on the ground in an instant. He shook his body mightily, and his Immortal Spirit Qi repelled all the water, leaving him completely dry, as if he had never been in the water at all.

Seeing this scene, the goblin was dumbfounded, staring at Tangyu in utter amazement: "Mr. Tang, you—"

This scene was beyond belief. If he hadn’t seen it with his own eyes, he wouldn’t have trusted it. It was simply too magical.

Despite soaking in the cold pool for so long, Tangyu emerged completely dry, defying all logic.

Tangyu casually remarked, "Don’t be so surprised. Our clothes are made with advanced technology; they don’t get wet. Why make such a fuss?"

"Ah—" The goblin was baffled by Tangyu’s explanation. Could it really be so?

Ignoring the goblin, Tangyu used a communication talisman to notify the others, and soon, Qian Shanxue and her group arrived promptly.

"What’s the matter, Tangyu? Any discoveries?" Qian Shanxue asked.

Tangyu nodded and replied, "Yes, Sister Qian Shanxue. I just investigated the bottom of the cold pool and found it quite peculiar. However, I couldn’t completely understand it, so I wanted you to come down and take a look. The pool is a hundred meters deep, and the bottom is extremely terrifying. Those below the Earthly Realm likely won’t be able to reach it."

"Oh—" Qian Shanxue’s eyes flickered with an unusual light as she gazed into the cold pool and surveyed the surroundings. Her brow furrowed slightly: "This cold pool is indeed strange, with a constant flow of Chilling Evil Qi rising from below. The water also has a peculiar, decaying smell. There’s definitely more to this place than meets the eye. Come on, Tangyu, let’s go down and take a look. Everyone else, stay up here."

With that, Tangyu and Qian Shanxue plunged into the cold pool together.

The goblin watched with a heart full of trepidation. The Fairy had actually just jumped into the cold pool? Wouldn’t she be frozen? freewebnoveℓ.com

Descending, Tangyu and Qian Shanxue quickly reached the bottom of the cold pool again. Qian Shanxue moved her hand, and a bright shining crystal ball appeared, illuminating the dark bottom of the pool. Tangyu couldn’t help but glance at the crystal ball, which shone like a miniature sun, truly remarkable.

With the light, the two of them examined the bottom of the pool, where everything was covered in thick thousand-year ice, filling the area with an overwhelming Chilling Evil Qi. Even those in the Earthly Realm would not dare to stay here for long, as it would pose a significant life threat.

Qian Shanxue’s star-like eyes scanned the area, finally settling on a spot. She walked over, and Tangyu followed. Bringing the crystal ball close to the ice wall, they saw a faint passageway behind the ice wall.

"There’s a passage," Tangyu exclaimed with joy, realizing they’d indeed found something.

Qian Shanxue also smiled slightly: "It appears to be a passageway. There might be an underground palace down here. It seems to be the ruins of the Ancient Holy Land."

"Sister Qian Shanxue, let me try breaking through this thousand-year ice," Tangyu volunteered.

Qian Shanxue glanced at Tangyu and then said, "Alright, you give it a try." With that, she stepped back.

Tangyu moved his hand, summoning a sword. He focused his energy, his gaze becoming sharp and intense.

Whoosh—

With a powerful slash, the sword imbued with profound meanings of Yin and Yang, unleashed immense power. Even the water seemed to part on its own, as if under an invisible force. The slash struck the thousand-year ice heavily.

Boom——

A terrifying sword heavily struck the Thousand Year Ice, causing it to crack. Soon, it shattered into fragments and flew apart. Yet, this strike had not completely gotten through.

Tangyu shook his head: "What a terrifying Thousand Year Ice. My sword only broke through half a meter. This Thousand Year Ice Wall must be at least two or three meters thick."

Tangyu swung his sword again. It wasn’t until the sixth strike that the passage fully opened. A long, dark corridor appeared before him. Even before entering, a chilling, creepy aura hit him, causing a shiver.

Such a terrifying atmosphere.

Such an ancient atmosphere.

Strangely, water did not flow into the passage.

"Sister Xue, what should we do now?" Tangyu asked.

Qian Shanxue said, "This place is strange, it seems to block the Communication Talisman. I sense it’s very dangerous inside. Let’s go back and arrange things before coming down to investigate properly."

"Alright." Tangyu nodded.

The two quickly went back to the shore.

Liang Youshan, seeing them return, couldn’t help but ask eagerly, "Boss, how’s it going?"

Tangyu nodded, "We’ve made some discoveries, but it’s too dangerous down there."

Qian Shanxue said, "Liang Youshan, you three, and Hu Yaomei stay here and don’t go down. Settle in the village and wait for our message."

Liang Youshan was a bit disappointed at not being allowed to go down, but he didn’t dare to defy Qian Shanxue’s orders.

"Liang Youshan, don’t let your guard down. People from the Yin Mountain King will soon target us. Your duty is to protect them, and avoid confrontation with the Yin Mountain King’s people," Tangyu instructed.

Liang Youshan nodded, "Understood, Boss. I won’t act recklessly. With our limited strength, we can’t face the Yin Mountain King. But if you’re gone, they will quickly target us."

Qian Shanxue said, "Don’t worry. For now, the Yin Mountain King won’t be too aggressive. I’ve already called for support. If the Yin Mountain King himself appears, I’m no match for him. I’ve asked Sister Chen Xi to come."

Sister Chen Xi——

Hearing this name, everyone couldn’t help but take a deep breath.

Even Tangyu was slightly surprised. That’s because Sister Chen Xi was extremely famous in Myriad Saints Valley. As the president of the Mysterious Clothes Association, she was considered the top female disciple of the Inner Gate. Her strength was unfathomable, rumored to have reached the Ninth Layer of the Earthly Realm.

Such a master was someone everyone could only look up to.

Tangyu’s eyebrows also raised. This meant the Yin Mountain King’s strength was also at the Ninth Layer of the Earthly Realm. Otherwise, Sister Qian Shanxue wouldn’t say she couldn’t match him and had to call Sister Chen Xi for help.

Now knowing the Yin Mountain King’s strength, Tangyu felt furious. His current strength was far from enough to confront the Yin Mountain King. This revenge would have to wait for the future.

"Alright, let’s go." Qian Shanxue waved her hand, but just as she was about to enter the pool, her brows furrowed, and she glanced back.

Everyone quickly followed her gaze. They saw a group of over a dozen people rushing over, led by the Left Protector. The Left Protector’s lips curled into a wicked smile, with an evil and unscrupulous look in his eyes as he scanned Qian Shanxue and the others, almost feeling a bit disrespectful.

Seeing them, everyone became alert, ready for battle.

Qian Shanxue looked over: "Left Protector, your dog nose is quite sharp, following us so quickly."

The Left Protector approached, smiling lightly, "Just a coincidence. We also got a lead and rushed over, but someone beat us to it. Luckily, it doesn’t matter whether we arrived first or last, right Qian Shanxue? If you want to hog everything, think twice about it."

"We can’t have it all, and neither can you," Qian Shanxue said.

The Left Protector wagged a finger, "No need to get so worked up, Qian Shanxue. We can explore the Holy Land Ruins together, and everyone gets what they can. We don’t want to hog everything either, but we can’t let you. Are you planning to fight here? Your numbers are insufficient. Wouldn’t it be better if we each acted independently, looking for our own opportunities?"

Qian Shanxue was silent for a while, then said, "Alright, let’s each rely on our luck. But don’t try any tricks, or you’ll face the consequences."
