Chapter 98: Strange Lake, Strange Fish, Strange Man

  Shui Hunyuer was stunned, and from yesterday he saw Bi Luodai wearing that big fox-shaped mask to cover her face, thinking she did so because of her ugly appearance.

  The sunshine shines on the white snow reflecting a crystal light, but it can't compare with the beauty of the emerald-like lake.

  Her delicate features are like the most beautiful work of art, carved out by a master craftsman with his life's blood, with a hint of shyness that cannot be shaken off in her eyes, shining with an unprecedented determination, even the stars under the night sky can't compare to her unique beauty.

  Beautiful! Water Lotus has always been confident in her own appearance, but when she saw Bi Luo's appearance for a moment, the whole person was like being struck by lightning. She had never seen such a beautiful beauty! That big magic hat is not to cover up ugliness, but to block this extraordinary face!

  "I believe him! He won't do that." Bi Luo bent down to pick up the magic hat, hastily put it back on her head, and once again covered up the face that could make powerful men willing to go to war for her.

  The forest and the stone forest are not closely connected, with nearly a thousand meters of open space between them. Qianjin cautiously warned against the vultures circling in the sky above their heads, these things can only be considered as birds of prey, but they can also rely on their own strength to grab a small horse that has just been born, and their sharp claws can instantly tear a person's head from their body.

  The vulture circled left and right in the sky, seeing that the prey was already quite close to the stone forest. The bird of prey's intuition knew that if this prey entered the stone forest, it would be even more unsuitable for itself to dive and strike.

  Suddenly, a vulture's wings shook continuously, its body resembling a sharp arrow swooping down from the sky, a pair of claws flashing with a cold light firmly grasping his shoulders.

  Qian Jin lowered his head and proceeded cautiously, feeling the vulture above him suddenly swooping down. His legs abruptly split apart in a bow-and-arrow stance. With both hands grasping the hilt of his saber, he made a reverse slash upwards, and his tenth-level Dou Qi surged into the saber like a long river. For the first time, Qian Jin felt as if he and the saber were connected by blood vessels. The vulture's body was split in two by the saber's light, falling to the snowy ground where it convulsed several times before completely dying.

  He glanced at the vulture on the ground and then looked at the distant forest, smiling faintly to himself: "This thing should be enough for several meals."

  It's winter anyway, and it's covered in ice and snow, so it won't spoil for the time being. I'll bring it back when I return.

  Qianjin once again infused the tenth-level Dou Qi into the Zhan Ma Dao, and only then did he truly experience for the first time what it meant to be a Dou Bing. The Dou Qi of ten level warriors connected together and infused into the Dou Bing, feeling completely different from when he was a ninth-level warrior before.

  At the 9th level of warrior, it felt like just pouring fighting energy into a more unobstructed container. At this time, there was indeed a bit of a blood connection feeling. Facing those three 9th-level warriors again, Dry Energy was confident that he wouldn't waste too much strength in battle. The connected and unconnected fighting apertures were two different realms.

  This is just the beginning of entering the realm of a 10th-level warrior. As time goes on, Qianjin knows that the meridian connecting the ten Doukong will become wider and wider, and the explosive Douqi will also become stronger and stronger. With the brute force trained in the endless world, even if Lukas invites someone who has entered the 10th level of warrior for many years as a bodyguard, he can definitely remove this threat to his life.

  The stone forest was as quiet as a small forest, with dry and crisp footsteps on the thick snow, making a crunching sound, which became the only sound in the stone forest.

  "The snow there was relatively thinner. Looking at the snowy ground of the stone forest, three pieces of snowy ground that were obviously thinner than other places soon appeared. Upon closer inspection, it could still be seen that there were signs of artificial work."

  "Compared to the wolves and knife hands of the endless world, this method of covering tracks is a bit rough. Gan Jing walked forward along the tracks, secretly sighing that the way this adventurer team was formed wasn't good, at least they should add a member who's better at covering tracks. Maybe it's because they're poor? Any adventurer with special skills wouldn't be cheap, and would have already been poached by large adventurer teams or even mercenary groups."

  The hidden trail extended to the front of a massive boulder and suddenly disappeared. Qian Jin looked up at the huge stone in front of him, which was about two or three people high, with a radius of nearly two meters. Carefully calculating, its weight was probably over 1,500 catties. With the heavy weight, plus the cold water and snow around the boulder that had frozen into ice, even if one had the strength of 1,500 catties, there would be little chance of moving the boulder.

  Qian Jin put down his horse-slaying knife and raised the Dou Qi in his body to its limit. With both palms tightly attached to the bottom of the giant stone, he exerted force to push it, but this boulder didn't show any signs of moving at all.

  "This thing is too heavy, isn't it?"

  Surrounded by the giant boulder, he couldn't help but admit that although he had trained his body to be strong and powerful in the blacksmith's place, compared to the combined strength of three adult adventurers, he might not even be a match. Yet, despite this, the boulder shouldn't have been pushed without any reaction at all.

  On the day when I didn't exercise, in Blake's blacksmith shop, after using it for a couple of hours, I could still drag that 1,000-jin heavy hammer slowly. Why can't I push this stone at all today?

  Qianjin learned to observe carefully in the endless world, and after circling around the giant stone for a very long time, he found that there were very shallow rope marks on the giant stone.

  Quickly searching for marks on the surrounding stones, it soon became clear why several adults could move this block. Apparently they were using the surrounding stones, ropes and pulleys to lift it up. It's unknown where those ropes and pulleys have been placed.

  Qianjin searched everywhere for a long time, but finally had to give up and abandon the search. He also thought about using his saber to slowly chisel open the stone, but he gave up on that tempting idea as well. If the cave entrance were opened, it would be difficult to close again, and some magical beasts liked to eat Dou Shi to strengthen themselves. Opening the entrance might attract unnecessary trouble.

  "Whatever! Anyway, I know the place, what's there to be afraid of not getting a chance? Let's go find Feng Yun Dou Qi first!" Qian Jin gritted his teeth and stomped his foot, holding the horse-slaying knife as he quickly and carefully made his way through the stone forest, without worrying about leaving behind footprints that might be discovered by someone.

  One day, two avalanches occurred in a row. On top of the accumulated snow were three Snow Tigers. Anyone who wanted to enter from outside had to ask those three ferocious magical beasts with strong territorial awareness first.

  The Shilin was more sinister than Qianjin had imagined, and it wasn't until they had walked a distance of almost twenty meters that they finally exited the vast expanse of the stone forest. The lake was less than twenty meters away from the stone forest. As soon as Qianjin stepped out of the stone forest, he felt waves of heat rushing towards him, just like walking into a hot and steamy bathroom, without any hint of the cold winter of Siji Valley.

  He didn't have the energy to look for the source of the heat, so he took out the map from his chest again and carefully examined it for half a day. He then quickened his pace along the lakeshore with steaming hot water on his right-hand side.

  Hot! The dry and strong walk along the shore feels like being in a scorching summer, not feeling even a bit of the winter flavor in the four-season valley. The lake water is emitting high temperatures, but there's no sign of boiling or rolling, occasionally with several golden fish over one meter long jumping out of the water.

  "What kind of fish is this? It's not even cooked yet?" Gan Jing was getting used to the strange things in Siji Valley, but he remained vigilant, keeping an eye on the quiet lake water. Who knew what kind of giant monster fish might suddenly jump out and swallow a person whole with one bite. Dying in the mouth of a fish would be too humiliating.

  This lake with hot water is very large, and Qianjin walked along the shore for more than an hour. Seeing a huge stone with a height of over 20 meters and a diameter of about 10 meters, he showed a happy smile on his face.

  This mark is consistent with the map's records, and it's rare for people to enter the Four Seasons Valley on a daily basis. It seems that according to the map's records, "Feng Yun Dou Qi" should be on the other side of the stone block.

  Qianjin sped up his pace and circled around the huge stone, but didn't see any carving marks on it.

  "Could it be? Is it buried underground?" Qian Jing thought of the stories he had read before about traveling poets, where some people found a strong man's corpse and kindly buried him near death, only to find that the source of his strength was in the ground.

  Having walked to this point, Gan Jing had no intention of turning back. Since the bloodline of the Spirit King had not awakened, the path to becoming a great warrior was filled with thorns. The Gan family would not place any resources or energy on someone who failed to awaken their bloodline, everything could only rely on oneself!

  An expensive battle-ready sword. For the time being, it temporarily served as a trowel, scooping away clumps of mud. If this scene were to be seen by the lord of Auckland, he would surely scold loudly about the extravagance of using a battle-ready sword as a trowel.

  A tenth-level warrior with fierce brute force, after a short period of time, dug out a deep pit that could bury himself twice.

  "Isn't it this position?"

  Qianjin carried a sword and crawled out of the pit with a grey head and a dirty face, then chose a location to dig again...

  One hole, two holes, "three forts" five holes

  It was noon, and Qianjin had been fighting continuously for more than a dozen holes. In the hot and humid lake, his body was also sweating profusely, and his arms once again felt the long-lost feeling of fatigue.

  "What are you digging?"

  "The relic" Qian Jin's casual reply was suddenly cut off, his body shuddered with a chill, both hands gripping the Zhan Ma Dao tightly, he looked up at the source of the voice that was filled with teasing tone and slightly low male pitch.

  The sun poured down its scorching sunlight from the sky, and in an instant, Qian Jin only saw that his opponent was a tall and sturdy black figure. The relationship between them was like the deep pit looking up at the sky. This black figure gave off an aura of grandeur, as if he wanted to hold up the sky with his head and trample the earth with his feet.

  Let me talk about why I set the protagonist's name as Qianjin. Qianjin, moving forward, when I started writing this book, I hoped that my achievements could move forward a bit more, and after "Ji Mie Tian Jiao", I hoped that this book could make some noise in the world of fantasy novels, so the title is called "Making Noise in the World".

  Qian represents heaven and also represents yang. The power of Qian is naturally strong, just like heaven and the power of yang.

  This book, from the very beginning of creation, I didn't just think about the kind of web novel that would be popular for a short time. This time, I hope to write something with an unprecedented momentum, advancing, advancing, advancing! And also hope that the results will have the same momentum.

  To be honest, this book's first hour sales are better than "Ji Mian Tian Jiao"'s first hour sales. I really want to thank everyone for their support.

  The new book has achieved its best performance since "Gao Lou Xin Shu", whether it's the new book list, weekly push list or weekly click-through rate.

  So about the monthly ticket, can I take it a step further? Can you lend me one so I can show off for a bit?
