Chapter 525 This Item is Destined for Me
This Underground Dark Stream was truly too vast, with waterways densely packed, appearing one after another.
Compared to the previous Abandoned Mine Cave.
He Song even felt that this Underground Dark Stream was actually more suitable for his closed-door cultivation.
While exploring this enormous Underground Dark Stream, He Song also developed some other thoughts about this Underground Dark Stream in his heart.
As a Golden Core Cultivator, He Song's Divine Sense could now extend a full hundred and fifty kilometers in radius.
Under such circumstances, he still couldn't quickly explore this enormous Underground Dark Stream completely.
This indicated that this enormous Underground Dark Stream definitely stretched for more than a hundred and fifty kilometers.
And as He Song continued to explore forward, this enormous Underground Dark Stream, within the range of He Song's Divine Sense, still had no end in sight.
It wasn't until hundreds of kilometers away that He Song finally explored an Exit.
Such an enormous Underground Dark Stream, according to He Song's estimation, was likely at least several thousand kilometers long, and possibly even tens of thousands, or even hundreds of thousands of kilometers in length.
Within a vast area spanning thousands of kilometers, the Monster Beasts that could be nurtured were naturally numerous.
Just the auras of Foundation Establishment Demon Beasts that He Song sensed already numbered several.
There were even more auras of Qi Condensation Stage Monster Beasts.
He wondered, if He Song were to completely explore this enormous Underground Dark Stream, how many Foundation Establishment Demon Beasts he would find within this enormous Underground Dark Stream.
During He Song's continuous exploration, the situation within the Underground Dark Stream gradually unfolded before He Song's eyes.
This place seemed to be rarely visited by Cultivators, and a large number of Monster Beasts thrived and multiplied in this enormous Underground Dark Stream.
In the absence of disturbance, in this enormous Underground Dark Stream, naturally, with the passage of time, more and more powerful Monster Beasts would appear.
Perhaps, if enough time passed, and if the area here was as vast as He Song had guessed, it might really be possible for a Golden Core Demon Beast to be born.
However, all of this was just He Song's speculation.
The current He Song had not yet completely explored this enormous Underground Dark Stream.
Even its area had not yet been fully determined.
Regarding this, He Song was neither arrogant nor impatient, merely concealing his own aura and continuously exploring within this Underground Dark Stream.
And so.
As time passed.
By the time He Song had thoroughly explored the situation of this Underground Dark Stream, several hours had already passed.
This Underground Dark Stream was located thousands of meters Underground.
Although there were connections to the surface, they were few, mostly Deep Pools and Great Rivers.
These places were all occupied by Foundation Establishment Demon Beasts.
Moreover, the area of this Underground Dark Stream was not as large as He Song had previously imagined.
But it was still not small.
This Underground Dark Stream stretched for tens of thousands of kilometers deep Underground.
The Territory of an Immortal City was basically only about thirty thousand square kilometers, occasionally exceeding that slightly.
If this Underground Dark Stream were on the surface, it would probably be a vast lake large enough to occupy the area of an entire Immortal City.
But unfortunately.
This Underground Dark Stream, stretching for tens of thousands of kilometers, according to He Song's guess, should not be able to nurture a Golden Core Demon Beast.
Golden Core Demon Beasts also needed Cultivation, and they also needed a sufficient area to grow before they could ultimately break through to the Golden Core Stage.
Although this Underground Dark Stream stretched for tens of thousands of kilometers, compared to a Golden Core Demon Beast, it was just a small piece of land.
At most, it could only nurture some Foundation Establishment Demon Beasts.
Wanting to successfully break through to the Golden Core Stage in such a small place was still too difficult.
According to He Song's estimation, if this place wanted to successfully give birth to a Golden Core Demon Beast, its area would probably need to be increased quite a bit more.
Perhaps, if the area of this Underground Dark Stream could reach hundreds of thousands of kilometers, then the birth of a Golden Core Demon Beast would not be impossible.
In an Underground Dark Stream stretching for hundreds of thousands of kilometers, in the absence of almost any Cultivator intervention, the probability of giving birth to a Golden Core Demon Beast was still relatively high.
After all, such a vast area could occupy the Territory of several Immortal Cities.
Even in an Immortal Prefecture, such a huge area was extremely conspicuous.
In the absence of Cultivator intervention, the birth of a Golden Core Demon Beast was naturally a certainty.
Unfortunately.
There are no ifs in this world.
An Underground Dark Stream that only stretched for tens of thousands of kilometers, although it had nurtured many Foundation Establishment Demon Beasts and was sparsely populated, its area still limited the growth potential of the Monster Beasts within it.
After completely confirming that it was highly unlikely that a Golden Core Demon Beast would be produced here, a weight in He Song's heart was lifted.
Since it was highly unlikely that a Golden Core Demon Beast would appear here, then He Song, whose Cultivation Level had already reached the Golden Core Stage, was naturally the ceiling-level existence in this Underground Dark Stream.
In addition, this place was sparsely populated, and He Song cultivating in closed-door cultivation here did not need to worry about his existence being noticed by others.
After almost completely exploring this Underground Dark Stream that stretched for tens of thousands of kilometers.
He Song slightly judged the direction, and then went straight, heading towards the place where he had entered the dark stream.
The Underground Dark Stream was rich in water vapor.
Cultivators with Spirit Roots containing the water attribute would have their Cultivation speed somewhat improved when cultivating here.
However, He Song possessed four Spirit Roots, and the only Spirit Root attribute he lacked was the water attribute.
In this way, the improvement in Cultivation speed for water Spirit Root Cultivation in this dark stream was of no use to He Song.
Under such circumstances, He Song naturally would not covet the rich water vapor here.
However.
Just as He Song was heading towards the Cave he had come from.
In a place less than five hundred kilometers from the Cave.
His Divine Sense suddenly detected a trace of abnormality at a certain moment.
The Divine Sense detected an abnormality, causing He Song to immediately stop his forward pace.
At this time, He Song, because he had already activated the Spirit Concealment Art, did not reveal the slightest bit of aura from his body.
Although he had summoned the Starfall Pearl and used the Starfall Pearl's barrier to envelop himself, he concealed the light of the barrier, making it completely inconspicuous from the outside.
It could be said that although He Song was now in this pitch-black Underground Dark Stream, he was like an invisible person, and there was no need to worry about being noticed by others at all.
The reason for stopping his forward pace.
Was mainly because the abnormality that He Song's Divine Sense had detected had aroused a trace of Vigilance in He Song's heart.
In He Song's Divine Sense perception, more than fifty kilometers away, a huge transparent Bubble suddenly appeared at the bottom of the dark stream.
No matter how turbulent the water flow in the dark stream was, this huge transparent Bubble remained intact, showing no signs of being broken by the water flow.
Being in the Cultivation World.
He Song had long known that Treasures of all kinds emerged endlessly in the Cultivation World, and the appearance of various magical items was also quite normal.
But. this huge transparent Bubble that appeared at the very bottom of the Underground Dark Stream instantly made the name of this item flash through He Song's mind.
"Water-Repelling Pearl?"
"Being able to form a huge transparent Bubble at the bottom of a turbulent dark stream, and maintain it unchanged year after year."
"No matter how the water flow rushes, no matter how strong the water pressure is, the Bubble always maintains its original size."
"Only the Water-Repelling Pearl recorded in the Jade Scroll could have such an effect, right?"
"However, this Water-Repelling Pearl basically comes from the Sea Region, so how could it appear here?"
"This place. is an Underground Dark Stream, could it be, that it is connected to the Sea Region?"
"But the Sea Region is hundreds of thousands of kilometers away from here, it shouldn't be possible."
"Could it be that it was accidentally obtained by some Cultivator?"
The name Water-Repelling Pearl flashed through his mind, and records about the Water-Repelling Pearl immediately flashed through He Song's mind.
Water-Repelling Pearls basically all came from the Sea Region.
The Sea Region in the Cultivation World was actually extremely far away from the Purple Cloud Sect, and the records on the Jade Scroll were also vague.
It was to the east of the Purple Cloud Sect, an unknown number of kilometers away.
The Sea Region of the Cultivation World was extremely vast, and there were many islands at sea, with numerous Cultivators.
Water-Repelling Pearls, which could allow Cultivators to build Abodes Underwater, or allow Cultivators to walk on the seabed as if on flat ground, were naturally indispensable.
In the Sea Region, this Water-Repelling Pearl was usually used to build Abodes, or to go to sea to fight Sea Monsters.
However, this Water-Repelling Pearl was something from the Sea Region, so why would it appear within the Territory of the Purple Cloud Sect?
Moreover, it was still in this sparsely populated Underground Dark Stream?
You must know that He Song had previously completely explored this Underground Dark Stream in its entirety, and even explored the small branches once.
It was just to worry about missing something, which would lead to subsequent dangers appearing in this place.
This place had been regarded by He Song as his Back Garden, his escape route for the future, so he would naturally be extremely cautious.
But it was under such circumstances that He Song had not detected that this Underground Dark Stream was connected to the Sea Region.
With doubts, He Song frowned and pondered.
But soon, He Song's brows relaxed.
This item must be destined for me.
Since he had already discovered the existence of the Water-Repelling Pearl, after a little thought, He Song immediately had the idea of going to explore it.
Water-Repelling Pearls were usually used to build Underwater Abodes.
He Song had not forgotten this piece of information.
In other words.
Where there was a Water-Repelling Pearl, there was likely an Abode.
Moreover, ordinary Cultivator Abodes would definitely set up a Formation outside the Water-Repelling Pearl to hide the existence of the Water-Repelling Pearl.
Otherwise, such a large Bubble in the water would probably be hard to not notice.
But what He Song saw with his Divine Sense at this moment was just a Underwater Bubble.
This indicated that the Formation outside the Water-Repelling Pearl might have long since completely dissipated due to the passage of time.
The original site of the Abode had only the Water-Repelling Pearl left, still exerting its effect.
This was why this Water-Repelling Pearl was revealed.
Under such circumstances.
What exactly existed in the Bubble formed by the Water-Repelling Pearl was naturally self-evident.
Thinking of this, He Song slightly checked himself.
The current He Song had completely concealed his aura.
Although he had the Starfall Pearl protecting him, there would not be any aura leakage, and he would not be noticed by others.
Naturally, even if he went to explore, it would not lead to any serious consequences.
After confirming that even if he faced a Golden Core True Lord, he did not need to worry about being noticed, He Song moved his body and quickly headed towards the place where the Water-Repelling Pearl was located.
Fifty kilometers away.
For He Song, whose Cultivation Level had reached Golden Core, it was not too far a distance.
Therefore, very quickly, He Song quietly arrived at the place where the Bubble was located.
At this moment, He Song hid his body in the Underground Mud and Sand, only revealing a pair of eyes outside, looking at the place where the Bubble was located.
Although he was Underground, the water flow in this Underground Dark Stream was also quite turbulent.
But with the eyesight of a Golden Core Cultivator, He Song could still see the scene in front of him clearly.
In sight, the water flow surged, and a circular Bubble stood abruptly on the Underground, completely isolating the inside of the Bubble from the outside water flow.
With He Song's eyesight, he could even see the dry, waterless soil inside the Bubble.
And on top of the soil, a large number of Withered Plants, which had turned into black withered branches of unknown plants.
When his gaze reached and saw these Unknown Withered Plants, He Song's heart was certain.
It seemed.
This place had indeed been inhabited by someone.
Looking at the large number of Unknown Plants appearing inside this Bubble, they looked very much like Spirit Rice, or Spirit Medicine, that had been artificially cultivated.
Although he couldn't tell what these Withered Plants were exactly.
But with plants and soil, one could naturally imagine that someone had lived here before.
This thought flashed through his mind, and He Song became more cautious, hiding himself even deeper.
Then he turned his eyes and looked elsewhere.
The area of the Bubble formed by the Water-Repelling Pearl was not large.
But it was not small either.
It was about six square kilometers in area.
Within this six square kilometer area, even though the water flow above was torrential, no water had entered the Bubble, and there was no sign of water flow washing over it.
His gaze swept over the large area of Withered Plants outside the Bubble, and He Song quickly saw the scene in the center of the Bubble.
The center of the Bubble.
Because the height was sufficient, the Structure inside the Bubble was not a low Abode, but instead stood tall, like a tall tower.
In the very center of the Bubble, a tall tower stood silently, surrounded by several Palaces, forming a mysterious symbol, with the aura of an Immortal's home.
Seeing such a scene, He Song's heart suddenly stirred.
At this moment, a hint of joy flashed in He Song's eyes.
The tall tower in the very center of the Bubble, and the surrounding Palaces, plus the Spirit Fields or Herb Garden that had been opened up outside.
These things appeared in front of He Song, and immediately made He Song realize.
There might really be a Cultivator's Abode hidden in the Bubble in front of him.
Although He Song had not yet entered it to investigate.
He did not know whether this Abode was a Golden Core Abode or a Foundation Establishment Abode.
However, based on the concealment and danger of this place, coupled with the existence of the Water-Repelling Pearl, being able to stand here for so long, this Abode was probably definitely a Golden Core Abode.
An undefended Golden Core Abode just appeared in front of him, He Song's eyes flickered, and he even felt a little unreal.
He had searched for many years before, but had never found any decent Fortuitous Encounter.
Previously, he entered that Abandoned Mine Cave and dug around for a long time, but only picked up all the Possessions of a Foundation Establishment True Person, plus a Foundation Establishment Demon Beast Corpse.
