#599 - Golden Lotus, Snow

He pulled the gourd out of the spirit pool. After so long, the water in the pool had already shown a slight decrease. Although this gourd couldn't be manipulated, it was still a magic weapon, and its capacity was considerable. Not to mention a pool of water, it could even drain a river.

The formation of this spirit pool seemed to be related to the special environment of this Great Barren Death Ground. He wondered if the portion of spirit pool water he collected could be replenished.

If it could, that would be great. He would have an endless supply of Immortal Transformation Pool water in the future.

It was just that he couldn't release his spiritual power and divine sense here, so he couldn't manipulate magic weapons as freely as he could outside. Many methods were restricted, otherwise, this spirit pool would have been drained long ago.

Anyway, he could come back anytime. He didn't need the Immortal Transformation Pool water for himself; he was taking it for his main body's women and children, so there was no need to rush.

Just as he was about to leave, the black-robed doppelganger stared at the spirit pool beside him and suddenly let out a soft exclamation.

He saw that in the center of the pool, a petal tip faintly revealed itself as the water level decreased.

The black-robed doppelganger pondered for a moment, then directly jumped into the water.

Upon reaching the bottom, the black-robed doppelganger immediately discovered the wonderful use of the spirit pool water. His body was unconsciously absorbing the pool water, which contained a massive amount of immortal spiritual energy. Moreover, his senses became more acute under the influence of the pool water, and the speed of absorbing the surrounding immortal spiritual energy obviously increased several times. Even his perception of the surrounding Great Dao became clearer.

The black-robed doppelganger suddenly understood.

No wonder Immortal Lingxiao's cultivation improved so quickly in the Immortal Transformation Pool. So that was the reason.

Without time to think, the black-robed doppelganger quickly arrived at the location of the petals and immediately widened his eyes.

He saw a huge golden lotus blooming in the pool water, with nine petals open, shimmering with a faint, shadow-like halo. It swayed gently with the ripples of the pool water, so beautiful that it was unreal.

In the center of the blooming petals, a lotus seedpod grew quietly, surrounded by swaying stamens that were extremely moving.

And within the lotus seedpod, there were nine huge golden lotus seeds, each the size of an adult's fist, with a glazed luster alternating, sparkling and translucent, and incomparably gorgeous, making the black-robed doppelganger's heart flutter.

Moreover, the black-robed doppelganger could feel that these nine lotus seeds seemed to contain a shocking life force.

The black-robed doppelganger immediately remembered what the two Snowdrift Holy Land Holy Ancestors had said before.

"I heard that in that forbidden land, there is an supreme treasure medicine. Taking one at random can break through the shackles of lifespan and greatly increase life expectancy…"

It seemed that the treasure medicine he was talking about was the golden lotus in front of him!

Dao crystals and spirit pool water were not of much use to the main body, but this golden lotus could provide a strong life force, and the benefits to the main body were self-evident.

The black-robed doppelganger's eyes were full of joy. He circled the golden lotus a few times, then grabbed the root of the golden lotus, wanting to pull it out by the roots, but found that the golden lotus didn't move at all. With his current strength, he couldn't shake the golden lotus in the slightest.

The black-robed doppelganger's eyes showed even more surprise. He then summoned a flying sword. Since he couldn't pull it out, he would chop it down.

But to his disappointment, this flying sword, which already belonged to the category of immortal swords, couldn't leave any traces on the surface of the golden lotus at all. The golden lotus itself was like an extremely powerful magic weapon!

This also highlighted its extraordinary nature even more.

The treasure was in front of him, but he couldn't take it away. This feeling made people feel a little uncomfortable.

He was a little unwilling and used the flying sword to pry the lotus seeds. This time it was very easy. The lotus seeds seemed to have matured and easily separated from the golden lotus.

The black-robed doppelganger was overjoyed.

Since he couldn't understand the golden lotus, it was good to get these nine lotus seeds!

Anyway, the golden lotus couldn't run away. It wouldn't be too late to come back and take it after his strength improved.

Moreover, with his current cultivation and understanding of Dao techniques, he couldn't refine treasures of the golden lotus's level at all. Taking it back would be a waste.

Maybe leaving it here could nurture lotus seeds again.

Thinking of this, he felt much more comfortable.

After taking out the nine lotus seeds one by one, the black-robed doppelganger jumped out of the water again.

He took out a lotus seed and examined it carefully, and found that the lotus seed became more and more mysterious after leaving the pool water, and there was a rich fragrance that went straight into his nose, and taking a breath made people feel swayed.

Good treasure!

Flipping his hand and taking back the lotus seed, the black-robed doppelganger turned and walked towards the way he came.

The bones of corpses piled up into mountains under his feet, making a cracking sound as he stepped on them.

Some corpses had been buried here for an unknown number of years. Even if their own strength was incomparably powerful, they couldn't resist the erosion of time, and some had even weathered on their own.

The black-robed doppelganger's heart moved. Could it be that the nurturing of the golden lotus was due to the endless withered bones outside?

The corpses flowed away, seeping into the earth, being absorbed by the golden lotus, and nurturing the golden lotus seeds with a huge life force…

If that was the case, it would make sense.

The black-robed doppelganger continued to move forward, casually collecting a portion of storage rings along the way, but he didn't stop because of this, gradually approaching the light curtain along the way he came.

Suddenly, his footsteps stopped, his gaze fell on a half-withered corpse, and he stopped.

At the waist of this corpse, there was a white token scattered, with the two characters "Snowdrift" engraved on it.

"Snowdrift…"

These two words made the black-robed doppelganger involuntarily think of Snowdrift Holy Land, and he bent down to pick it up.

This token was neither gold nor jade, and its texture was peculiar. Even after a long time, there was no sign of decay. The front was engraved with the word "Snowdrift", and the back was engraved with an image of a middle-aged man sitting cross-legged, with an immortal demeanor and extraordinary bearing.

"Could it be that this guy is the founding ancestor of Snowdrift Holy Land?"

The black-robed doppelganger's eyes widened a bit: "It can't be such a coincidence, right?"

Shaking his head, the black-robed doppelganger put away the storage ring next to the corpse before continuing to move forward.

At this time, outside the Great Barren Death Ground, outside the light curtain.

A group of figures appeared, looking at this peculiar scene that divided the world from a distance, their faces full of shock.

"Eldest Brother, is this the Great Barren Death Ground?"

A young girl asked curiously.

The man called Eldest Brother nodded and sighed: "That's right, this is the Great Barren Death Ground. For endless years, many people have stepped into it in order to pursue the Great Dao and to conquer this forbidden land that no one dares to set foot in easily, but no one has ever been able to walk out. Countless strong people have been buried in it! Among them, there are no lack of Mysterious Immortals, Golden Immortals, and even Immortal Kings…"

Eldest Brother pointed to the hazy light curtain, his mind agitated: "Do you see the twisted Dao field inside? That is all the chaotic and condensed Dao at its peak. If anyone can truly enter it and not be affected, then they must have truly understood all kinds of Dao to the supreme realm. As far as I know, this kind of person does not exist in the entire Immortal Realm."

The surrounding senior and junior brothers and sisters immediately changed their faces.

Countless strong people have been buried in it, including Mysterious Immortals, Golden Immortals, and even Immortal Kings?

That's terrible!

"But…"

The young girl blinked her eyes and pointed to a corner of the light curtain and asked: "Isn't there a person there?"
