Chapter 587: Entering the Lake

While the sun in the sky slowly descended, the moon began to leisurely surface on the other side of the sky.

Buzz!

At the moment when both the sun and moon appeared, the girls could sense that the Yuan Power in the depths of Mysterious Spirit Mountain suddenly began to surge violently. The land trembled slightly as ripples formed on the calm lake. A bright glow was constantly emanating from the small island in the middle of the lake.

"The Life Mysterious Spirit Fruit is about to appear!" Ying Huanhuan exclaimed in a hushed and excited voice as she watched this scene.

Such an item was definitely not something their Master would need, so it would surely end up being used by her and Qing Tan.

Rumble!

The island in the middle of the lake began to shake even more intensely, while the light that was emitted from the land became even stronger. Eventually, cracks began to spread across the island. Soon after, a giant tree, completely emerald green like a kingfisher, slowly broke out from underground!

This giant emerald-green tree was just like a newborn baby. It grew from the ground, while its branches and leaves spread outwards. Meanwhile, circular green light patterns that were filled with life force continuously scattered from it.

These light patterns gathered on the tree at an astonishing speed. Within them were four most resplendent glowing spots...

Buzz buzz!

The light intensified and eventually solidified. The four spots where the light had converged directly turned into four emerald green fruits!

These fruits hung on the branches, surrounded by circular light patterns, exuding a proud life force that made the natural Yuan Power in the air appear as though it possessed life

"Four Life Mysterious Spirit Fruits!" Ying Huanhuan gazed at the four emerald green fruits that had formed on the tree. The joy in her pretty eyes grew even more intense.

"Is this the Life Mysterious Spirit Fruit? Shouldn't there be a guardian beast for such a natural treasure? Why didn't it take them away earlier?" Qing Tan asked, observing the giant tree that had broken out from the island at the lake's center.

"This Life Mysterious Spirit Tree can form nine Life Mysterious Spirit Fruits. Moreover, it will only mature when the ninth fruit appears. The guardian demonic beast is probably waiting for that. Unfortunately, it will not be able to wait for that day to arrive," Ying Huanhuan explained.

After explaining, she then looked towards Xiao Ming and said, "Master, this fruit"

"Alright, alright, I understand."

Xiao Ming gently patted the heads of Ying Huanhuan and Qing Tan. Then he turned his gaze to the lake at the top of Mysterious Spirit Mountain. There seemed to be a faint hint of bright red color deep within the clear water of the lake.

With a light tap of his foot, a huge wave rose from the center of the lake, and a huge shadow emerged from the water. The shadow of the enormous creature that emerged from the water enveloped a thirty-meter radius, while a monstrously vicious aura spread from it.

This was the overlord of Mysterious Spirit Mountain, a three-headed Demon Snake at the Initial Profound Life Stage.

On the upper body of the gigantic demonic beast, there were three huge ferocious snake heads. Scarlet scales covered its massive body like the toughest armor, and every time it moved, it emitted waves of extremely shocking power.

Each of those snake heads had a sharp horn. A dense cold radiance flickered across them, making those horns appear as if they were sharp enough to tear apart space itself.

At this moment, the three-headed Demon Snake was staring at Xiao Ming and his disciples around the lake with its cruel scarlet eyes. Its huge mouth opened slightly, and an exceptionally dark and cold roar rumbled through the air.

"Who dares to disturb this king! You actually dare to lay a hand on something that belongs to this king? You bunch of death-seeking fools... Ah, mercy, please spare my life!"

The initially imposing three-headed Demon Snake suddenly changed its tone, trembling with utter fear. It had just sensed an extremely terrifying aura!

With a slight gesture of his hand, Xiao Ming unleashed a tremendous storm of Spiritual Strength towards the tree bearing the Life Mysterious Spirit Fruits. The tree, which had been quiet until then, trembled once more. Xiao Ming drew the four fruits towards him and evenly distributed them between Qing Tan and Ying Huanhuan.

He then turned his attention to the three-headed Demon Snake after doing this.

"Watch over these two ladies. Otherwise, you know the consequences."

"Understood, my lord!"

The Three-Headed Demon Snake felt a surge of excitement when it saw that Xiao Ming had not crushed him to death with a single finger for the previous offense. Losing the Life Mysterious Spirit Fruits was a pity, but at least its life was spared. Besides, there were still five Life Mysterious Spirit Fruits that had not yet formed, and once they did, they would all belong to it!

Xiao Ming didn't care whether the Demon Snake was lying or not. He had his own contingencies in place for the two girls.

After giving them a brief instruction, he approached the edge of the lake and then leaped down.

...

From the outside, the surface of the lake appeared extremely large. However, upon entering it, one would discover that the surface was merely the tip of the iceberg. Looking into the depths of the lake, the deep darkness resembled the large mouth of a demon. It was a sight that made one's hair stand on end.

Oddly enough, there were no living creatures within the lake, not even a small fish in this vast body of water, which was quite unusual.

Xiao Ming had come here specifically for this oddity.

In an instant, Xiao Ming arrived at the lakebed, where he saw a vast expanse of red color. This red color turned out to be a layer of lava that extended as far as the eye could see.

The fiery red lava spread across the lakebed like a flaming carpet. It bubbled up, simultaneously heating the surrounding cold lake water to boiling temperatures.

Xiao Ming easily passed through the layer of lava to reach the true bottom of the lake, which was an open square devoid of both lava and lake water. The square was paved with neatly arranged, fiery red rocks, simple in appearance yet containing a trace of antiquity.

There was a four-meter large rock pool at the very center of the square. Fiery red lava flowed within the rock pool, while jade green specks of light were continuously emitted from the center of the lava.

The jade green specks of light gathered together a foot above the lava after they were emitted. There was already a palm-sized cluster of jade green liquid suspended in the air. A kind of extremely dense and indescribable life force ripple was being emitted in a churning fashion. It appeared as though the surrounding space was full of vitality because of it.

This was the Core Spiritual Birth Serum, a natural treasure greatly beneficial for the cultivation at the Profound Life Stage. It was especially valuable for practitioners who had reached the Perfect Profound Life Stage. Xiao Ming naturally had no use for it himself, but he could keep it for his disciples.

Xiao Ming walked straight towards the Core Spiritual Birth Serum. Suddenly, rays of light lit up around the rock pool, and a massive formation took shape on the ground. After which, rays of scarlet red-light lines shot out, tearing through space and heavily striking Xiao Ming. However, the latter did not stop walking, and upon closer inspection, not even a tear in his robe appeared.

After collecting the Core Spiritual Birth Serum, Xiao Ming swiftly stepped into the rock lava pool and entered another space.

"This is the Devil Suppressing Prison? Interesting..."

What appeared before Xiao Ming's eyes was a vast and endless dark domain. This domain was as deep as the night sky, and a single glance made it feel as if the darkness was encroaching into one's bones.

Colossal magma rivers, each thousands of meters long, slowly flowed through this dark domain. These magma rivers intertwined and connected in the darkness, forming an extremely tremendous and intricate network.

From his high vantage point, Xiao Ming gazed down at these flowing magma rivers. They were like giant magma dragons crawling in the darkness, creating a scene that was both peaceful and vast.

This was an extremely important place on the Tian Xuan Continent, known as the Devil Suppressing Prison. It was where the Yimo Tribe members who had been captured by the strong practitioners of the Symbol Ancestor side were sealed. Over the long years, these practitioners had continuously tried to erode the tenacious life force of these Yimo in order to exterminate them in a long-term manner.

There were three Devil Suppressing Prisons in the Tian Xuan Continent. One was under the control of the reincarnated Life Death Master, whose Reincarnation was still in the Great Yan Empire. The prison she suppressed had mostly been breached by now. The other two were controlled by other two Ancient Masters the Flame Master and the Darkness Master. So far, no issues had arisen with these two prisons.

The style of the Devil Suppressing Prison before Xiao Ming made it clear that it was the one under the control of the Flame Master.
