Falling in Love to Escape the Original Book Plot [BL]-Chapter 260: Rootless Broken Water 1

"Let’s test with a few more rabbits." The double suggested.

At the same time, he removed twenty rabbits from the space and handed ten to Zhen Yuan.

First, they tried throwing the rabbits across the river.

However, the rabbits couldn’t fly across and were irresistibly sucked into the river.

Seeing this, Zhen Yuan and Shen Xu tried different methods but the result was the same.

"Ayuan, you head left and I will go right. Let’s see if there is a safe point on this damned river."

"Okay."

Soon after, Zhen Yuan walked to the left, and Shen Xu went to the right.

Ten metres from their starting point, both threw a rabbit into the river.

However, the result was no different from before.

As soon as the rabbit touched the river water, it disintegrated and instantly vanished.

Seeing this, Zhen Yuan frowned and continued walking.

This time, he walked to the one hundred metres point and dumped another rabbit.

Unfortunately, the result was the same.

Five hundred metres...

Two kilometres...

Ten kilometres...

Thirty kilometres...

One hundred kilometres...

After dumping the final rabbit, Shen Xu and Zhen Yuan returned to the starting point.

"We can assume the entire river is dangerous." Shen Xu stated and subconsciously frowned.

"We can’t fly over it or swim across."

"Mmh." Zhen Yuan nodded with a thoughtful expression.

"Did you realise something?" The double questioned and Zhen Yuan nodded before speaking.

"If I am not mistaken, it’s rootless broken water."

"Rootless broken water?" Shen Xu couldn’t help but frown.

Rootless broken water was a strange water that inexplicably appeared in random places.

As far as anyone knew, the water was destructive and had no cultivation benefits.

Thinking of this, Shen Xu sighed.

"Rootless broken water destroys everything it touches. We may not be able to cross this river." He said.

"Let’s search the library before giving up. There is also Yang Shi, Feng Xue, Xiaomu, Xiaolei, and Xiaoren. They may know something." Zhen Yuan said and Shen Xu immediately agreed.

After deciding, the two erected their portable cave and activated the usual formations before entering the space.

"Everyone, gather at the peach garden." Shen Xu said and his voice resounded in the entire space.

Soon after, everyone gathered at the stone table in the peach garden.

"Master, is something wrong?" Feng Xue asked.

"We have encountered rootless broken water." Shen Xu informed and several people frowned.

"What is rootless broken water?" Li Wenqiang asked.

"It’s a strange water that appears at random places. It’s highly destructive."

"What’s the big deal? Just go around it." Xiaolei suggested and several others nodded in agreement.

Hearing this, Shen Xu shook his head and began explaining.

"It has formed into a long river with no end in sight. Also, there is an iron heart tree on the opposite bank. Ayuan and I want to collect the iron heart fruits."

"This..." Yang Shi frowned and turned to Feng Xue.

"My inherited memory is incomplete and there is only a single mention of the rootless broken water. What about yours?" He asked but Feng Xue shook her head.

"I haven’t received all my inherited memories." She said.

"Master, I know this." An eager voice suddenly chirped.

"Xiaomu..., you know how to deal with the rootless broken water?" Shen Xu asked in a surprised voice.

"I know." Xiaomu nodded and began explaining.

"Water feeds wood so I am particularly knowledgeable about water treasures."

"Xiaomu, is there a way to cross the river?"

"There is one." The wood fire stated and quickly continued.

"Master, you need to refine an earthen boat."

"Earthen boat?"

"Earth absorbs water, hence the two have an overcoming relationship. However, not any earth will do."

"What do you mean?" Shen Xu asked.

"Although it’s destructive, rootless broken water is a precious natural treasure and ordinary earth treasures cannot contain it." Xiaomu explained.

Hearing this, Zhen Yuan narrowed his eyes with a thoughtful expression.

"Can we use the space soil in the Earth area?" He asked.

"As expected of Lord Zhen." Xiaomu praised and quickly continued.

"Although the space soil has not completely awakened, its origin cannot be underestimated. The soil in the earth area should be sufficient to cross the river. However, ..."

"However?" Shen Xu asked.

"Master, I don’t know if you can refine the soil." Xiaomu said in an embarrassed voice.

On one hand, its level was low and on the other, its master was weak.

"Are you looking down on me?" Shen Xu asked, glaring at Xiaomu.

However, Xiaomu didn’t answer.

Instead, she lowered her head and looked away, not daring to meet her master’s eyes.

"Let’s try it first." Zhen Yuan said, rubbing his wife’s hair to soothe his emotions.

After that, Shen Xu collected some earth element space soil and went to his refining room while Zhen Yuan went to the library.

Time passed and in the blink of an eye, it was two years later; equivalent to twenty-four days outside the space.

At this time, Zhen Yuan and Shen Xu looked at each other and smiled.

"Finally." Shen Xu exclaimed.

"Congratulations." Zhen Yuan said with a doting expression.

"Who knew it would be so difficult to refine the space soil?!" The double complained in an aggrieved voice.

He thought he would succeed in a month or so when he first went into seclusion.

However, things didn’t turn out as expected.

At times, the fire was too weak and at others, the method was wrong.

In the end, Zhen Yuan researched and Shen Xu experimented before they were able to successfully refine ten earthen boats.

"It’s too bad the rootless broken water cannot be stored." Shen Xu lamented.

He originally planned to refine some earthen gourds to store the rootless broken water.

However, during his research, Zhen Yuan discovered that rootless broken water could not be removed from its place of origin.

After being removed, it would lose its destructive effect and become ordinary water.

Thinking of this, Shen Xu shook his head and sighed.

’This treasure is too inexplicable.’ He thought.
