Chapter 79: The Bottom of an Unknown Valley, the Secret of the Current
On Giant Lizard Island, there is a grand canyon that spans almost the entire island.
It is as if the two places are cut off from each other. It is as wide as 1000 feet and as deep as 1000 feet. Over time, the grand canyon is spread by cultivating monks, but also gradually developed a chilling nickname.
It was called the valley of death.
The meaning was very clear. Other than birds, no other creatures could leave the canyon, and no other cultivators dared to approach it.
If Su Yi had not been forced into a desperate situation, he would not have chosen to jump down from there. Fortunately, he had made the right bet.
At the bottom of the canyon that was a thousand feet wide, if one looked up, they would not be able to see the face of the canyon. It was as if they were looking down from above, like an abyss.
Looking up from the bottom of the valley, one could only see a sliver of the sky.
At the bottom of the valley, one could only see Su Yi lying in a pool of water. He slowly opened his eyes.
Only to see the sky that was like a thin line appear in his eyes.
“I am actually still alive…” he muttered to himself.
Soon after, his eyes were filled with awe as he transmitted his divine thought. When he realized that his immortal destiny seal was still intact in his mind, he immediately let out a sigh of relief.
He felt the true essence in his body, and he felt empty. He only remembered that in the end, he used the move of the Flowing Shadow Flash to lock onto a demon beast, and then flashed over.
He only felt that under that degree, the true essence in his body was quickly extracted, and then he lost consciousness.
He supported his body and stood up. He looked around and found that he did not know where he had come to. When he saw the thin line-like sky above his head, he understood that he was at the bottom of the canyon.
He did not expect that the bottom of the canyon was so deep that he could only see a little bit of the blue sky. Then, he took out a vitality replenishing pill and put it into his mouth. This was what was left in the ruins the last time.
The pill entered his mouth and turned into dense true essence that flowed in his body. He let out a long sigh and felt that all the strength in his body had returned.
Suddenly, he found that there was a small mouse lying in the pool of water, but it was already dead. Su Yi looked at it with a faint smile on his face and then said, “thank you, little guy.”
After saying that, he moved the true essence in his hand and actually buried the demon mouse’s body into the ground.
In the end, it was this small demon beast that saved his life. If it was not for this small demon mouse, then in the end, the one who would be cut off from the immortal path would be him, Su Yi.
He bowed slightly to the small mound that he had raised to express his grat.i.tude. Then, his gaze became sharp again. He had to face this place.
Although this place was s.p.a.cious, there was nothing else. There were shining stone walls and boulders everywhere.
It looked gloomy and quiet. It was truly terrifying. He slowly walked a few steps, but he found that he did not know where to go to walk out of this valley.
Could it be that he had to climb up?
He looked at the extremely tall wall, and his entire body trembled. He did not know if Xuan Lingzi was still standing guard up there.
He could not climb up just because he wanted to. If there was no other way, he definitely would not consider climbing up there.
Whether it was the matter of the Nie family branch or the upcoming Tiandao sect compet.i.tion, he could not waste his time here.
With this thought in mind, he looked at the two ends of the valley. He could not see the end of the valley. At the same time, there was no light. He could only hear the sound of water flowing.
“Eh? The water is flowing?”
Su Yi, who suddenly realized this, started to look at a stream not far away.
The stream here did not look like a stream, and the river did not look like a river. However, like a ca.n.a.l, there was a small stream of water flowing slowly to the top of a valley.
This stream of water was also endless.
Other than that, he also saw that the cobblestones where the water flowed had some light white frost on them.
Seeing this, Su Yi’s raised his eyebrows. He actually used his hand to touch the white frost and put it into his mouth to lick it. A familiar taste came from his taste buds.
The taste of the white frost was very salty. It was the unpolished coa.r.s.e salt crystal. Then, he put his hand into the current and pulled his finger back. He put it into his mouth and licked it. There was also a faint salty taste.
Soon, Su Yi had a rough guess in his heart.
The upstream of this current must be connected to an exit. After all, Giant Lizard Island was an island in the sea.
At that time, he would be able to pa.s.s through the mouth of the sea and return to the surface.
Thinking of this, he moved his feet slightly and poured his true essence into it. Then, he started to fly towards the upper reaches of the current.
His surroundings seemed to be dark. Under the tiny sliver of the sky, it seemed rather dim. However, it was not so dark that he could not see his own fingers.
For a cultivator like Su Yi, it was naturally not a problem. One could only see that his vision was still clear. It was blurry as he sped through the canyon, and the whistling sound of the wind could be heard by his ears.
One could imagine how fast Su Yi’s speed was at this moment.
However, Su Yi was not satisfied with this. Against those old monsters and old fellows, he was still forced into such a desperate situation.
He was still not strong enough. If he could become undefeatable in the Great Dao, then who would dare to provoke him.
At this moment, an extremely terrifying thought emerged in Su Yi’s heart. This was also what he had always been determined to do in the future when he achieved supreme achievements.
The surrounding environment was rapidly changing, and Su Yi still had not reached the end of the upper reaches. A trace of solemnity appeared on his well-defined face.
The bottom of the canyon was longer than he had imagined. Suddenly, his fast-moving body stopped.
Just now, his feet touched a stream of water, and a numbing sensation spread to his calves. He was so shocked that he quickly stopped and jumped onto a huge rock.
He looked at the stream of water curiously, but did not find any living creature in it. Where did that numbing sensation come from?
Under his careful observation, he finally found something. In the slowly flowing water, there were tiny electric arcs flashing on the surface of the water.
Su Yi raised his eyebrows and showed a strange expression. Why was there electricity in the seawater? He did not understand why there was still electricity flashing in the water.
Soon after he calmed down, his ears moved slightly and a sizzling sound entered his ears. Moreover, this buzzing sound was quite familiar to Su Yi.
It was like the sound he had encountered when he had just arrived at the Giant Lizard Island.
“It’s the Thunder Bamboo!”
