Lin Yun looked at Gu Yan, clenched his hand, and a Life Profound Spirit Fruit appeared, which he then threw to Gu Yan: "This is your reward for letting me join the team."
Gu Yan quickly reached out to catch it. As the Life Profound Spirit Fruit landed in her hand, the rich vitality caused a tempting blush to appear on her cold and beautiful cheeks. She then bit her lip and softly said, "Thank you."
She understood that following the team was insignificant compared to the value of this Life Profound Spirit Fruit.
"Meeting you here in the Chaotic Demon Sea is fate," Lin Yun smiled. Along the way, Gu Yan and her team had indeed helped him.
After speaking, Lin Yun turned to look at Gu Ya beside him, then reached out and stroked the young girl's head. With a flip of his hand, another Life Profound Spirit Fruit appeared, which he then handed to her under the envious gazes of the surrounding Gu Family disciples.
"Is... is this for me?" Gu Ya looked at the Life Profound Spirit Fruit, wanting to take it but not daring to. She stared at Lin Yun and timidly asked.
"Thank you for taking care of me these past few days," Lin Yun smiled slightly and forcefully placed the Life Profound Spirit Fruit into Gu Ya's hand. Only then did she happily accept it.
"What are your plans next?" After distributing the two Life Profound Spirit Fruits, Lin Yun turned to Gu Yan and asked.
"There are still two months until the Five Family Martial Gathering begins. I want to use the power of the Life Profound Spirit Fruit here to break through to the Life Profound Realm," Gu Yan mused.
Hearing this, Lin Yun nodded. His gaze then shifted to the clear and calm lake surface and he said, "I will be going to the bottom of this lake next."
Gu Yan was clearly stunned by Lin Yun's words. She also glanced at the calm lake surface, but quickly withdrew her gaze. With her intelligence, she naturally guessed that there might be something at the bottom of the lake, but she didn't ask further.
"Okay, then you go. Be careful. If there's enough time, we'll guard for you outside."
Lin Yun smiled and nodded, then patted Gu Ya's little head and turned to walk towards the lake.
"Big Brother Lin Yun, be careful," Gu Ya said, waving her small hand behind him.
"Okay!" As Lin Yun's voice fell, his body was quickly enveloped by Origin Power. Then, with a splash, he leaped into the icy lake water.
Seeing Lin Yun enter the lake, a Gu Family disciple whispered, "Sister Gu Yan, why is he going to the bottom of the lake? Is there some treasure down there?"
Gu Yan glanced indifferently at the Gu Family disciple and said, "One should know when to be content. Eating too much, be careful not to choke."
The Gu Family disciple heard this and awkwardly nodded, no longer asking questions.
"Pass down the order, set up camp and guard here. I need to go into seclusion to break through to the Life Profound Realm," Gu Yan finished speaking, waved her hand, then took out the Life Profound Spirit Fruit, sat down cross-legged, and closed her eyes.
Inside the lake, Lin Yun's thoughts were constantly churning.
If nothing unexpected happens, there should be Earth Core Spirit Essence down here! I wonder if I can get the Flame God Ancient Token without the Ancestral Stone.
Let's go down and see first.
Thinking this, Lin Yun swam towards the bottom of the lake at an extremely fast speed.
From the outside, the lake appeared vast, but only after going deep inside would one realize that the area above was merely the tip of the iceberg.
Being inside, looking into the depths, the profound darkness was like the gaping maw of a demon, making one feel a little creepy.
As he gradually went deeper into the lake, Lin Yun also sensed that the vitality in the lake was extremely rich, but there were no life forms whatsoever.
It's similar to the description in the original work, it's really quite strange. The thought flashed through his mind, and his body continued to descend.
After several minutes like this, some reddish light suddenly appeared in the endless darkness.
At the same time, the temperature of the surrounding lake water also became scorching hot.
As Lin Yun went deeper, the area of reddish light below also grew larger and larger. Then, he saw a stretch of magma that extended to the end of his sight.
The fiery red magma spread out at the bottom of the lake, like a carpet of flames. The magma bubbled and simultaneously scorched the surrounding cold lake water, making it boiling hot.
Lin Yun hesitated as he looked at this scene.
The original work said the Heavenly Flame Cauldron could pass through directly. Forget it, let's give it a try.
Thinking this, he flipped his hand, and the Heavenly Flame Cauldron roared out. His body moved and he drilled into the cauldron. Only then did he control the Heavenly Flame Cauldron to transform into a rainbow light and rush into the scorching magma below.
*Plop!*
The Heavenly Flame Cauldron indeed entered without any obstruction.
"As expected!" A smile appeared on Lin Yun's face. Then, he shot out from the Heavenly Flame Cauldron.
What greeted his eyes was an empty square, devoid of any magma or lake water. Fiery red rocks were neatly laid out on it, simple yet with a hint of ancientness.
After looking around, Lin Yun's gaze settled on the very center of the square. There was a stone pool about dozens of feet in size. Fiery red magma surged in the stone pool, and in the center of the magma, green light spots constantly emerged, condensing into green liquid above.
An extremely rich vitality emanated, as if even the surrounding space had become full of life.
"Earth Core Spirit Essence!"
Seeing the green liquid, Lin Yun established a task in his mind.
Task: Obtain Earth Core Spirit Essence. Reward: One bottle of Earth Core Spirit Pill.
Task: Obtain Flame God Ancient Token. Reward: Ten million Xuan Yuan Pills.
Hearing the tasks in his mind, a smile immediately appeared on his face.
"The rewards are not bad. With this thing, plus the rewarded pills, I should be able to break through."
Thinking this, Lin Yun's gaze observed the magma stone pool. There was a trace of reddish light on it.
"As expected, there's a formation!"
After sensing the energy on the formation, Lin Yun still shook his head and muttered to himself, "It seems I still have to go down and get the Flame God Ancient Token first."
Looking at the magma stone pool, Lin Yun gritted his teeth and jumped into the pool.
As soon as he entered the magma pool, he felt his body suddenly sink. Opening his eyes, he saw the isolated world beneath the magma pool.
"Hiss..."
Lin Yun gazed at the scene before him, a look of indescribable shock slowly surfacing on his face.
In the darkness, massive magma rivers, tens of thousands of feet wide, flowed slowly through this dark space. These magma rivers crisscrossed, weaving through the darkness, forming an extremely vast and complex network.
He was positioned high up, looking down. Those ten-thousand-foot-wide magma rivers were like colossal magma dragons prostrate in the dark space, silent and vast.
After calming his mind, Lin Yun's gaze swept towards the distance.
"I need to find the stone coffin first."
