Unstoppable Martial Arts: Starting from Fist Technique Deduction
Chapter 285 - 53 Exploration

Chapter 285: Chapter 53 Exploration

Right after Lin Yuan completely killed Xiang Liangji, in the distant treetops of the dense forest, someone felt a deep terror in their heart.

"Lin, Lin Yuan, hiding so deeply, actually, actually." The burly man was shocked, his tongue even tied in knots.

He witnessed with his own eyes, Lin Yuan transforming into a monster a zhang tall, instantly crushing Xiang Liangji, which far exceeded his expectations.

"Run, run, run!"

"From now on, I must never have the mindset of a fisherman benefitting from conflict. I must escape immediately, the further away, the better!" His expression was terrified, his back cold, and almost instantly, he fled towards the edge of the island.

But just as he gently tapped the treetops with his feet, flying into mid-air.

An exquisite lotus mark suddenly appeared on his chest.

"What is this?"

The golden lotus reflected in his eyes, causing his pupils to suddenly constrict.

"Not good!"

Boom!

Like spring thunder exploding, almost instantly, the whole black-robed burly man was dizzy from the violent energy and rapidly fell downward.

Thud.

Just as the burly man crashed to the ground, a black boot had already stepped on his chest.

His chest heaved rapidly, suppressing the surging breath in his heart. He opened his eyes, only to see a pair of indifferent eyes staring directly at him.

Seeing this, the burly man knew he could no longer escape.

"I ask, you answer!"

Lin Yuan spoke calmly.

"Okay, okay." The burly man sighed in relief: "Senior Brother Lin, I am willing to serve you, just spare my life."

As long as he performed well, it seemed there might be a chance to live.

Lin Yuan was noncommittal and asked, "Who sent Cai Bao?"

Cai Bao was also a character from the Cloud Hidden lineage, but clearly seemed intent on killing him after the treasure was obtained.

There must be a reason behind this.

The burly man paused at the words, thought for a moment, then sighed: "Cai Bao’s father is also one of the mountain masters of the Cloud Hidden lineage, knowing that Black Dragon Pool hides a secret treasure."

Lin Yuan shook his head slightly, obviously dissatisfied with this answer.

The burly man took a deep breath and said again: "He came here this time at the behest of someone ranked eighteenth, Chou Junhao."

"Chou Junhao?" Lin Yuan frowned: "I am not involved with this person. Why does he seek trouble with me?"

"You rely on Qi Yu to get rid of trouble. You’ve gotten too close to Qi Yu, he doesn’t like it, and wants to eliminate you." After the burly man finished, he glanced at the thoughtful Lin Yuan and added: "Chou Junhao has extremely high aptitude, entered the Martial Academy for eight years."

"After three years of dormancy, he entered the top hundred in the fourth year, defeated Gu Dan ranked fiftieth after six years, and defeated the twenty-eighth ranked Sun Shichu of Qingmu Martial Academy two years ago. Now he’s within the top twenty. He’s called the Cloud Hidden Little Lu Rong."

"In another two years, he should be able to enter the top ten."

"Cloud Hidden Little Lu Rong?"

Upon hearing this, Lin Yuan laughed.

Everyone respects Lu Rong. But he obviously couldn’t care less, because Lu Rong disappointed everyone in Ningping Town and diminished his aura in Lin Yuan’s mind.

"Is there anything else you’d like to say?" Gathering his smile, Lin Yuan asked again.

The burly man suddenly broke out in cold sweat, his lips trembling: "Senior Brother Lin, let me go, let me go. I’ve said everything I wanted to say. Oh, there’s one more thing, one more."

"Hmm?"

"The Demon Sect, the Demon Sect has moved. They’ve already made a move now, ambushing near Changle Village." The burly man hurriedly said, revealing the secret he’d heard beside Cai Bao.

"Changle Village?" Lin Yuan’s heart stirred upon hearing this.

Isn’t this the second territory his master arranged for him?

Has the influence of the Demon Sect already infiltrated here?

Lin Yuan nodded and said solemnly: "Since you haven’t held back, I’ll give you a swift end."

"You!" The burly man was suddenly shocked.

"On your way!"

After Lin Yuan finished speaking, energy burst from beneath his feet, causing the burly man’s chest to collapse instantly.

His eyes widened, and he immediately stopped breathing.

After doing all this, Lin Yuan pondered briefly, and his figure disappeared again.

Not long after, around Lake Heart Island. The poor two big ships were instantly swallowed by raging flames.

And at the central pool, Lin Yuan stood on the shore once more.

Lin Yuan’s eyes were deep and distant, staring at the ancient, still pool below, a few hesitations surfaced in his heart.

"To go down, or not to go down?"

It was rare to face such a choice.

He always preferred security, but he also understood that wealth and honor come with risks.

He couldn’t possibly have everything under control at all times, often facing sudden circumstances.

And now, the situation was like this.

"The Smoke Rain Ink Spirit Flower only grows in humid and cold places. Black Dragon Pool is rumored to have had black dragons appear, and the previous black aura forming into a flood dragon clearly bears some relation to this legend."

Lin Yuan pondered in his mind, constantly analyzing: "And when I obtain the Smoke Rain Ink Spirit Flower, the black aura will have been completely eradicated, the water monsters lurking in Black Dragon Pool for a long time have been cleared. Even if I say I go deep into the pool, even if there is danger, it should not be exaggerated, it should be manageable."

Thinking of this, Lin Yuan also gained some confidence.

He no longer hesitated, after exploring the surroundings once again, ensuring no one was spying secretly. He took a deep breath, then leapt into the pool.

A Martial Artist reaching the meridian stage can already rely on the energy to filter out oxygen from the water, and if resonating with the true essence of water, they might even be able to breathe in water like fish.

Even Lin Yuan’s cultivation of the Great Sun True Essence can barely sustain staying underwater for an hour.

But underwater, his strength can only be exerted six or seven tenths. After all, underwater is not land, the force points are entirely different.

This is why snake demons and other major monsters lurking in Black Dragon Pool, even as powerful as Lu Rong, had little means against them.

Lin Yuan submerged in the water, the Great Sun True Essence floating in his eyes, illuminating like a searchlight in the abyss, constantly looking around.

The second realm of martial arts insight allows him to explore a radius of several dozen yards even underwater. Even in the face of danger, he can handle it with confidence.

The lake water was emerald green, occasionally drawing one or two fish near. Especially drawn to the faint glimmer in Lin Yuan’s eyes, they swam continuously around him.

Lin Yuan waved his hand, dispersing the small fish, and continued to sink.

The rock wall of the pool was like an inverted funnel. Apart from the mountain supporting the island, the further down it went, the wider it became.

He kept descending for about the time it takes to burn half an incense stick.

"I’ve reached the bottom!"

Lin Yuan waded through the silt up to his knees, his feet touching the solid crust. The rock wall in front of him was like a large figure, supporting the Lake Heart Island.

After carefully sensing the environment around him, Lin Yuan only felt a faint chill pervading the surrounding air.

Bubble bubble.

He exhaled two bubbles, closed his eyes, and felt the chill.

"It’s on the right."

It was pitch-black underwater, making him rely on his spirit sense. The pressure seemed to compress his spirit as well, and Lin Yuan dared not fully unleash it.

He gently moved his feet, like a fish, swimming toward the source of the chill.

As he advanced, the chill grew even denser.

"What is this thing, to evoke such a chill?" Lin Yuan softly waved his hands, suspending his body in the water.

A cavity within him silently dissolved, dispersing the turbulent cold wave.

"Proceeding, I can still withstand it for now. If I truly can’t handle it, I’ll retreat."

After a slight contemplation, Lin Yuan moved his feet again and swam forward.

As he swam, the bone-chilling cold made him extremely uncomfortable.

Unknowingly, his body became covered in a thin layer of frost.

Bubble.

Lin Yuan exhaled a turbid breath again.

"It’s too cold. There must be something terrifying here. I have already spent the great sun intent from eight cavities." Lin Yuan’s eyes showed a hint of thought: "I have a total of twenty cavities in my body, I must save half to ensure my safe retreat."

"Burn two more cavities, then retreat." Calming himself slightly, Lin Yuan waved his hands again.

He clearly felt his body starting to stiffen.

Moreover, the consumption rate of the great sun’s intent within him increased.

But he did not stop, instead, he vigorously swam forward.

There were almost no ordinary fish around now, even two-yard-long fish dared not swim here. Clearly, this was the forbidden zone of Black Dragon Pool.

The surroundings were silent, only the sound of flowing water echoed in his ears.

Just as Lin Yuan’s tenth cavity was about to burn out, his eyes suddenly flickered.

"What is that?"

From afar, he saw a section of curved rock, unexpectedly appearing vaguely in the distance.

But the water was too deep here, the light too dim, making it impossible to see anything clearly.

Yet Lin Yuan distinctly felt he seemed to see that section of rock, like a curved blade, tall and resolute.

And those rocks seemed to be dozens of feet high, densely stacked like numerous shadows swirling at the bottom of the water.

Looking at it, suddenly he just felt his vision blur, and his spirit within rapidly consumed. A dizzying feeling rose in his mind.

"Danger, retreat, retreat, retreat!"

Lin Yuan awoke with a start, instantly retreating backward. However, those overlapping shadows seemed to transform into a vortex, generating an immense suction force, trying to pull Lin Yuan into it.

"Three cavities, unleash!"

Feeling his body almost irresistibly drawn towards that shadow, his heart sank as he shouted.

His hands struck out in thousands of afterimages in the water.

"Pure Green Lotus Energy, Sixth Seal, Sky Splitting!"

The three cavities within him abruptly dissolved, and a golden fire lotus instantly appeared beneath his feet.

Gazing at the vivid golden lotus, a sharp light flashed in Lin Yuan’s eyes: "Explode!"

Buzz.

In the darkness, a golden light suddenly emerged.

Only to see beneath Lin Yuan’s feet an enormous force fiercely pushing his body outward.

Feeling his body rapidly moving away from those bizarre overlapping rocks, Lin Yuan let out a silent sigh of relief.

Finally tearing away from that strange pull, while swimming outward, Lin Yuan glanced back at the spot he had just been.

At almost the moment of the golden fire lotus explosion, it was also pulled by the strange power, annihilated almost instantly. Even the surrounding water was entirely drawn, flowing towards that eerie place.

Seeing this, Lin Yuan dared not linger, swimming back the way he came.

About an hour later, Lin Yuan looked at the human-shaped rock base, finally relaxing slightly.

And once he calmed his mind, he felt another cold aura.

"Did I disturb that chill just now, and now it has manifested?"

Lin Yuan stared at a glint embedded between rocks, slightly stunned.

But the faint chill emanating from it posed little threat to him.

Lin Yuan paddled his hands toward the glimmer.

"Hmm, is this a scale?"

Looking at the oval black scale about the size of a basin in his hand, Lin Yuan was stunned.

This fish-scale-like shape, with slightly translucent edges.

Yet for just one scale to be this large, how massive might its body be?

Lin Yuan couldn’t help but be shocked.

Without much hesitation, holding the scale, he kicked his legs and swam upward.
