Chapter 285 The Strange Lake
Su Ren walked around the lake in the mountains, looked at the moon in the sky and then looked at his reflection on the lake.
Then he picked up a stone and threw it at the moon in the lake.
The imagined splash of water by the stone did not happen.
When the stone touched the moon in the water, it was as if it was sucked in, and not even a ripple appeared on the water surface.
"It turns out to be a teleportation array. It looks like this is the entrance."
Su Ren stood on the shore, gathered his strength, and jumped over in one step.
A dizzy feeling came over him, and after a few seconds, Su Ren found himself in an unfamiliar world.
The sky looked as if it had been washed, but it was not blue but white with a hint of transparency.
The strangest thing was the ground. Su Ren looked down and found that he was actually standing on an endless lake.
That’s right, I was standing on the lake and didn’t fall in.
It can even create ripples when you walk.
Su Ren squatted down and tried to scoop up some water with his hands, but he touched nothing, as if he was touching air.
It was just strange that the water surface produced ripples as it should have when Su Ren scooped up water with his hands.
Su Ren once again used the river god skills to control the water surface, but found that he failed.
That only means that this is not water, but an illusion.
"Ice Dragon King."
Su Ren summoned the Ice Dragon King and let it take him into the sky.
Once you're in the sky, your vision becomes wider, but looking around, there's nothing else except the eerily calm lake.
Moreover, the entire space was eerily quiet. Apart from the conversation between Su Ren and the Ice Dragon King, there was not even the sound of wind.
"Fly up, as high as you can."
The Ice Dragon King carried Su Ren up into the sky. They didn't know how long they had been flying, but they still couldn't see the end of the sky.
And their distance from the lake seemed to have not changed at all.
Su Ren didn't believe it and let the Ice Dragon King fly back to the lake surface, and then used his drilling skill on the lake surface.
A deep cave entrance suddenly appeared on the ground. Su Ren took back the Ice Dragon King and jumped down in one step.
But a strange scene happened again. The moment Su Ren jumped down, he suddenly appeared above the place where he had just stood.
Then Su Ren fell into the hole again and began to repeat the falling process until Su Ren withdrew from the hole and he stood on the lake again.
"Interesting. I guess I can only try the sword-drawing slash."
Su Ren didn't waste any time. He took out the magic sword Thousand Blades and slashed at the lake.
The blade light cut through the surface of the lake and extended to the end of the sky.
The entire lake surface instantly split into two, with a huge crack appearing in the middle, just like normal lake water.
But the depth below is still bottomless.
After just a while, the cracked lake surface merged together again like two pools of water.
"When you cut off the water with a sword, the water will flow even more."
This sentence is enough to describe the scene that Su Ren is seeing now.
Drawing the sword and slashing was actually useless against this strange lake surface.
You can cut them open, but you can't destroy them.
Just as Su Ren was making various attempts, it was already 6 o'clock in the morning outside.
The many professionals who were waiting at the gate of Honshu City rushed out at the moment of 6 o'clock .
The sky and the earth were filled with their figures, so densely packed that it looked quite spectacular.
But those who are anxious are just some individual people and those with impatient tempers.
Others knew that it would be useless even if these people arrived a few minutes earlier.
Not to mention that the Yamata-no-Orochi had disappeared, even if it was there, it would be impossible for them to kill it in a short period of time.
Maybe these people will become food in the mouth of Yamata no Orochi.
However, there are also people with powerful influence who are anxious, such as Yamada Nobuno who is very anxious now.
The Yamata-no-Orochi suddenly disappeared, and as the master of the Yamata-no-Orochi, he was unable to sense any trace of the other party.
This made him feel that something was not right and was not going according to his plan.
Although he was anxious, he had to pretend nothing had happened and stood at the city gate, nodding and bowing to everyone.
"Be safe and come back safely!"
At this time, Suigetsu Takeshi and everyone from Suigetsu Society stood up and walked to the door. Seeing Yamada Nobuno's expression, Suigetsu Takeshi shook his head.
It is really embarrassing for the lord of a big city to be like a welcoming boy at the city gate.
He had heard of the name Yamada Nobuno before, but it was not because the other party was so strong, but because his reputation as a coward had spread throughout the Sakura Country.
Whenever anyone with a little bit of power came to Honshu Castle, Yamada Nobuno would wag his tail to greet them.
Moreover, Yamada Nobuno was a well-known drunkard and womanizer, which made Shuiyue Wu even more disdainful.
If he were to sit on the throne of the emperor, he would immediately deprive this kind of waste of his position as city lord.
Seeing Shuiyue Wu and others coming, an imperceptible sharp light flashed in Yamada Nobuno's eyes, and then he quickly put on a smile and greeted them.
"President Shuiyue Wu, are you leaving too?"
“I wish you a great start and a great victory!”
Shuiyue Wu chuckled when he heard this.
"Thank you for your kind words, Lord City Lord. Keep a good eye on the city gate. If I can capture the Yamata no Orochi, I can give you one of my bones if nothing else."
After Suiyue Wu finished speaking, all his subordinates burst into laughter. They thought that their president was treating Yamada Nobuno like a dog.
But that's normal, because they obviously don't take Yamada Nobuno seriously.
Hearing such sarcastic words, Yamada Nobuno did not get angry, but bowed and said:
"Thank you for your concern, it's good to have a bone."
Upon hearing this, everyone in Shuiyue Society smiled again.
Passersby couldn't help but shake their heads when they saw this scene.
This Yamada Nobuno's reputation as a coward is well-deserved.
Even after being laughed at like that, he still managed to thank them with a licking face.
While everyone was laughing at Yamada Nobuno, it was Suigetsu Takeshi who narrowed his eyes and took a closer look at Yamada Nobuno.
A dog that bites doesn't bark.
He insulted Yamada Nobuno in this way, and anyone would have been angry, but Yamada Nobuno remained calm and composed without changing his expression.
Either Yamada Nobuno is really a waste, or he is the kind of person who hides his true identity very deeply.
Shuiyue Wu no longer went to see him, but left the city with his men.
After the people from Suigetsu Society left, Yamada Nobuno's face immediately darkened.
"Shui Yue Wu, I'll let you be arrogant for a few more days. When you kneel in front of me, I'll see if you can still be arrogant!"
However, this process only lasted for less than a few seconds because there were other people walking out of the city gate.
Yamada Nobuno's smile returned to his face, and he stood at the city gate doing his welcoming work.
In less than half an hour, almost all the professionals in the city left Honshu Castle and headed for Yamanaka Lake.
When there was no one around, several agile figures appeared at the city gate with a large group of people.
After exchanging a look with Yamada Nobuno, they led their men and quickly ran out of the city.
