Chapter 1479 First Arrival at Phantom Canyon

Upon hearing the name Phantom Canyon, Lu Chen's heart stirred. Wasn't this the place he was looking for? Once he obtained the Floating Light Feather Robe, he would be one step closer to the secret realm from the War of the Gods era.

"That's great!" Lu Chen said excitedly, then, realizing he was getting a little carried away, he quickly composed himself and added:

"Such an opportunity could indeed make the Gu family wary, but obtaining the protection of a powerful figure is not an easy thing."

Lu Chen did not reveal his true purpose, as he was well aware that the consequences would be unimaginable if he did.

Hao Yun smiled slightly, as if he had already planned this. "Brother Lu, there's no need to worry too much. If you can bring out another pot of immortal wine like this, it should be able to attract the attention of a Transcendent Realm expert. After all, this wine of yours is no ordinary item. You should have confidence."

Lu Chen, however, was unconvinced. While the wine brewed from the Pure Spirit Creation Fruit was precious, to attract the attention of a Transcendent Realm expert, he would probably need more substantial treasures.

Lu Chen has many treasures, but he is unwilling to give them away for free.

However, while Lu Chen readily agreed on the surface, he actually had other plans.

Next, the three left the "Drunken God Tower," and after they flew into the air and arrived outside the city,

Hao Yun summoned a Saint-grade flying boat, its shape was beautifully streamlined, and it emitted a soft golden light.

Lu Chen and the Jade Purity Saint leaped onto the flying boat, which, under Hao Yun's control, sped towards the Phantom Canyon like an arrow.

Just then, Lu Chen suddenly frowned. His keen senses detected several figures following them. "Someone's tailing us," Lu Chen said in a low voice.

"Do you think those people might have been sent by Gu Nanqiao?" Sage Yuqing couldn't help but ask.

"It should be fine. After all, Brother Lu took Yao Ji away, so it's normal for the Gu family to send people to chase after him. However, I heard that Gu Nanqiao is always arrogant. I guess he never dreamed that anyone would dare to go against him. Gu Nanqiao is probably furious right now. It's really gratifying." Hao Yun said with a smug smile while controlling the flying boat.

"No matter what, we have to be careful. It's not good to have them following us around all the time."

Lu Chen calmly said, "If all else fails, find a secluded place and kill them all."

Hao Yun's eyes flashed with surprise upon hearing this. He didn't understand where Lu Chen, a cultivator at the Nascent Soul stage, got the confidence to say such a thing. However, he still nodded in agreement.

“Brother Lu is right. If we continue to be followed by them, we may run into trouble before entering Phantom Canyon.”

"Don't worry, my flying boat is extremely fast, they can't catch up." Hao Yun said with a confident smile.

He quickly formed a hand seal, and the next second, Lu Chen clearly felt the speed of the flying boat beneath his feet increase significantly.

The airship traced an arc in the air at great speed, quickly leaving the people behind it behind.

Lu Chen seized an opportunity to subtly inquire, "Brother Hao, do you know of any places in this Divine Domain where the water is particularly unusual, for example, the water is exceptionally heavy?"

"Extra heavy water?"

Hao Yun pondered for a moment, then seemed to have thought of something, and slowly said, "Isn't what you're talking about heavy water?"

"Yes, yes, it's heavy water. I didn't expect you to know about heavy water. Tell me more about it." Lu Chen asked excitedly.

Upon hearing this, Hao Yun quickly gathered the fragments of memory in his mind and then said:

"I remember once seeing an ancient jade slip, which recorded that in ancient times there was a mountain called Buzhou Mountain, and at the foot of the mountain was a lake. A drop of water in the lake could weigh ten thousand catties, so it was called the 'land of heavy water'."

However, it is said that after the War of the Gods, many places disappeared, including Mount Buzhou.

Upon hearing about the War of the Gods, Lu Chen assumed the other knew something he didn't, so he pressed for more information:

"Do you know why the War of the Gods happened, and who participated in this great war?"

Hao Yun shook his head, a helpless smile on his face. "Brother Lu, you think too highly of me. Those were things from tens of millions of years ago, and there are very few records left."

We've only heard that the Youqiong clan possessed a jade tablet containing a map, which recorded those vanished places. Unfortunately, the Youqiong clan has disappeared without a trace, and the legends surrounding them have become shrouded in mystery.

Hearing this, Lu Chen fell into deep thought. The Land of Heavy Water, Mount Buzhou, the War of the Gods—these ancient and mysterious existences seemed to paint a magnificent picture, slowly unfolding in his mind.

Yun Fengyuan once said that the war of the gods was caused by the appearance of the "List of Saints", which led to the collapse of Mount Buzhou, the breaking of the pillar of heaven, the flooding of heavy water, the ten suns in the sky, and the suffering of all living beings.

However, Hao Yun seemed unaware of this information, so Lu Chen didn't press further. If he wanted to learn more specific details, he would probably have to ask the mysterious woman he had saved.

At this moment, Hao Yun saw the disappointment on Lu Chen's face, and he smiled mysteriously and said, "Brother Lu, don't worry. Although I don't know where the ancient land of heavy water is, I know of a place that perfectly matches the characteristics of the land of heavy water."

Upon hearing Hao Yun's words, a hint of surprise flashed in Lu Chen's eyes. He immediately looked intently at Hao Yun, "Oh? Is what Brother Hao says true? Where is that place?"

Hao Yun smiled mysteriously and slowly said, "This place is called Xuanbing Pool, located deep in the Qingming Mountains. I only heard about this place by chance when I headed northeast."

Legend has it that the environment around the Xuanbing Pool is mysterious and unpredictable, and strange phenomena often occur. The water in the pool weighs over a thousand jin, making it difficult for ordinary cultivators to approach.

Moreover, the area is shrouded in mist year-round, and is inhabited by many ferocious immortal and demonic beasts, making it rarely visited. While it cannot be confirmed whether this is the legendary land of heavy water, it is certainly worth exploring.

Lu Chen repeated the name "Mysterious Ice Pool," quickly considering the possibilities of this location.

Judging from Hao Yun's description, this place does indeed match the place he is looking for; now all that's missing is the "Floating Light Feather Robe".

After a brief moment of contemplation, Lu Chen smiled and said, "It does sound like a mysterious place. I was just asking casually. With my current cultivation level, it's best to focus on cultivation."

Hao Yun didn't take it seriously, treating it as casual conversation. At that moment, he quickly lowered the altitude of his flying boat and flew towards a canyon.

Soon, the airship slowly landed in an open area, the environment of which was very different from what Lu Chen had imagined.

The canyon isn't a desolate and treacherous natural landscape; rather, it resembles the heart of a sect, filled with an air of mystery…
