Wedding Night: I Am Forced To Marry A Dragon Girl-Chapter 851 - Nine Nether Divine Water

Chapter 851: Chapter 851 Nine Nether Divine Water

Along the way, Jiang Xiaobai was asking Gu Ning about various things.

Such as the other party’s identity, and where they were heading…

He even delved into gossip.

However, Gu Ning had his principles: what should be said was said, and what shouldn’t be mentioned remained unspoken.

For instance, the place they were about to visit was a complete mystery to Jiang Xiaobai.

In his free time, Jiang Xiaobai examined the storage ring that Gu Ning had given him.

...

Good heavens, the resources inside were so abundant they were staggering!

Not immortal stones, but treasures infused with special powers, items more precious than the stones themselves!

Jiang Xiaobai estimated that absorbing all those things should allow him to reach seventy percent of the Great Achievement!

Breaking through to true immortality was not far off!

As he pondered, the trio landed by a lake.

“You, go down.”

Gu Ning pointed at the lake and said, “Below is a Dark Spring. Once you enter it, you’ll receive great benefits. It will be tremendously advantageous for you.”

“This girl will be fine with me.”

Jiang Xiaobai nodded, and although he had a thousand words in his heart, he still didn’t speak.

He plunged into the lake, heading straight for the Dark Spring.

Indeed, he found a cavity where the water above formed a huge vortex; dreadfully, as Jiang Xiaobai approached, no matter how he struggled, it was futile—he was directly sucked into the swirl.

After a tumultuous upheaval, Jiang Xiaobai smashed fiercely onto the ground.

When he looked up, he realized this place was a world unto its own.

In front was a massive waterfall, presumably where water drawn from the lake fell.

Behind him, there was an old, dilapidated temple.

He could vaguely see someone sitting cross-legged inside, prompting Jiang Xiaobai to become immediately vigilant.

“Setting a trap for me, there are people here?”

Underestimating the situation, Jiang Xiaobai mutters and cautiously approaches.

“Enough, who are you sneaking around for, there’s only me here.”

An old voice came through, and Jiang Xiaobai immediately felt embarrassed.

“Well, my master said…”

“I know all about it, come over and sit down, I have a question to ask you.”

Jiang Xiaobai didn’t feel any hostility from the other person and also knew that Gu Ning would not deceive him, so he sat down at ease.

There was not a hint of light in this place, and Jiang Xiaobai could only see a gaunt silhouette opposite him.

“What is cultivation?”

Upon hearing this, Jiang Xiaobai was suddenly taken aback.

Was it really that sudden?

To be asked such a profound question right off the bat?

“It means getting stronger, just so others can’t bully me.”

“But if there was a great danger in front of you, would you still continue cultivating? If you knew that on the path of cultivation, there would be thousands of bones behind you, would you still be willing?”

The old man’s words stopped Jiang Xiaobai in his tracks.

“Probably not,” he said.

“Heh heh, the heart of a mortal.”

“But it’s okay to think this way, right? Who wants to kill every day, who wants to be in danger every day?”

Jiang Xiaobai spoke frankly.

“I didn’t say there was a problem; on the contrary, that is the true nature!”

The elder laughed out loud, sounding like a bellows.

“Enough talk, since Gu Ning sent you here, he has chosen you.”

“Go ahead, there’s a pool behind here. Sit in it, and the divine water will forge your foundation and make you unprecedentedly formidable.”

After that, the old man said no more, and Jiang Xiaobai, without any hesitation, headed to the back.

And indeed he saw a small pond…

“This is a pond? This is more like a lake!”

Jiang Xiaobai roared. No sooner had he finished speaking than he was fiercely kicked from behind, plunging into the lake with a splash.

A clarity spread through his mind, and Jiang Xiaobai had never felt so refreshed.

Very comfortable.

Like a popsicle on a scorching summer’s day.

“Weren’t you supposed to let me bear it? I thought it would be painful…”

Jiang Xiaobai muttered to himself and sank to the bottom of the lake.

The divine water around him was absorbed autonomously; he wanted to try the Kunpeng Swallowing Sky Skill, but he found that he couldn’t move at all.

With no other choice, he could only sink slowly, observing the boundless darkness and experiencing the clarity in his mind.

…

On the shore, Gu Ning and Qiao Yunshen were grilling fish.

Both were eating with great relish.

“Big sister, your cooking skills are really good. This grilled fish is so delicious; I have never eaten grilled fish this tasty before!”

Qiao Yunshen exclaimed.

“Xiaobai is even better at it. I learned all of this from him.”

Gu Ning laughed lightly and then wiped the grease from the corner of her mouth, “Girl, have you ever thought that what’s on your body isn’t an illness, but rather a stroke of luck?”

“A stroke of luck?”

Qiao Yunshen looked at Gu Ning puzzledly, “Big sister, how would you know?”

“I can tell. This stroke of luck will only be beneficial for you and not harmful.”

“But it involves Xiaobai.”

Qiao Yunshen didn’t understand what Gu Ning meant. She saw Gu Ning handing her a piece of jade.

“Keep it on you. It’s good for your condition.”

“If one day Xiaobai needs your help, I hope you can help him, can you?”

Qiao Yunshen patted her chest and nodded fiercely, “Of course, Xiaobai is one of my few friends. I will definitely help him!”

“I don’t have many friends, and I find him quite pleasing to the eye.”

…

Jiang Xiaobai didn’t know how long he had been immersed in this dark lake water.

Suddenly he felt that someone had lifted him up.

“Why did you suddenly bring me up?”

Jiang Xiaobai asked in surprise.

He had just clearly seen the old man’s face, which resembled nothing so much as a skeleton!

And the old man was looking at Jiang Xiaobai with a strange gaze.

“That’s wrong, you had no reaction at all down there, didn’t you feel anything?”

Jiang Xiaobai shook his head, “Not at all, very comfortable, like eating an ice pop.”

“Ss, you brat, you truly defy the heavens!”

“Do you even know what kind of water this is?”

“Divine water, that’s what you said.”

“…”

The old man took a deep breath and scrutinized Jiang Xiaobai again, tapping and knocking before assuring himself that Jiang Xiaobai was perfectly fine. The whole experience seemed as if he had seen a ghost.

“This is the water of the Dark Spring, chilling to the bones. Even celestials would feel icy cold with just a touch, and yet you, at Great Achievement, had no reaction at all. That makes no sense!”

“Are you hoping I had a problem?” Jiang Xiaobai rolled his eyes, “Alright, stop researching. I’m going to continue cultivating.”

“What will you cultivate, look down below and tell me what’s still there!”

Looking in the direction the old man was pointing, Jiang Xiaobai saw that the entire lake was empty!

Nothing left!

“That’s not right, just now I clearly felt like I was in the water.”

“That’s the normal effect, brat, mysterious, really mysterious!”

After saying that, the old man shook his head and walked away, leaving Jiang Xiaobai puzzled.

Scratching his head, he quickly began to inspect his body.

He didn’t find anything wrong with himself.

It was only when he examined his Zixiao Yuan Shen that he froze.

The Zixiao Yuan Shen, originally dark purple, now had threads of blue weaving through it, constantly fluttering about.

Adding a touch of agility.

It was quite beautiful.

“Is that it, it’s over? Just a bit of enhancement to my Yuan Shen?”

Jiang Xiaobai asked curiously. Then, the next second, he suddenly widened his eyes.

A terrifying power began to spread out from his Zixiao Yuan Shen.

He felt like he was about to burst!

“Quickly channel your spiritual power and cultivate; this is the gift to you from the Dark Spring!”
