After a while.
Ji Yuan felt that he had been walking down for the ti it takes an incense stick to burn, estimating that he had reached dozens of ters beneath the surface.
In a trance, Ji Yuan took a step forward, and the cold disappeared instantly, the surrounding air becoming extrely hot.
He paused for a mont, then stepped back, only to find it still hot. Unconvinced, he retreated several more steps, finally feeling the coolness again.
He understood that the cold air was being pushed out by the heat.
With a slight delay, he was sowhat distanced from the Ice and Fire Elder, so he hurried to catch up.
The two descended dozens of ters underground again, until Ji Yuan couldn’t bear it and was forced to activate the protective effect of his Spirit Robe, finally revealing a vast, spacious stone hall before his eyes.
No longer the cramped and narrow passageway, but a huge, wide stone hall.
His gaze bypassed the Ice and Fire Elder ahead, spotting in the center of the hall... a magma pool!
The area wasn’t large, roughly only one zhang wide, and the magma inside the pool churned continuously, resembling a volcano about to erupt.
Could there be Water Transport in the magma pool?
Could the Fla Sword be forged here?
"This is the Ice and Fire Pool. Now it’s dayti, so it’s the Fire Pool. What you see may resemble magma, but it’s actually just boiling water... boiling water reaching a certain limit."
"When night falls, the pool water will transform into the Cold Pool Ice Pond. Rember not to get close. Your Li Family can forge the Flying Sword sword embryos either during the day or night. It’s up to you to decide."
After the Ice and Fire Elder finished speaking, Ji Yuan didn’t rush to say that he wanted to forge the Fla Sword during the day, instead contemplating as he spoke: "Junior wishes to stay here and observe, and only after understanding the differences in Water Transport between day and night can I decide which Flying Sword to forge."
"Very well."
The Ice and Fire Elder finally showed a hint of a smile.
"Then stay here to perceive. I won’t bother you. Just rember one thing: whether it’s day or night, don’t step into the Ice and Fire Pool. Once inside... not even immortals could save you."
The Ice and Fire Elder spoke this last sentence very seriously.
Ji Yuan solemnly nodded.
"Senior, rest assured."
"Mm, cultivate well."
With that, the Ice and Fire Elder transford into a fiery Escape Light and left along the path they ca by.
Henceforth, only Ji Yuan remained in the stone hall.
He took a deep breath and then gently tapped the Storage Bag at his waist with his right hand.
Four streams of light flew out and finally landed on the stone walls around the hall, transforming into four bright pearls, instantly lighting up the entire stone hall.
With the illumination, Ji Yuan discovered that the pool in front of him wasn’t really magma, but bubbling, boiling water, like... molten iron.
’Indeed, in the Cultivation World, the world is vast and full of wonders.’
Ji Yuan was just about to sit down when he recalled the Ice and Fire Elder’s reminder and retreated a few more steps before sitting down at ease.
In the space of just a breath, he sensed the rich Water Transport contained within the stone hall.
Remarkable indeed!
Ji Yuan was still considering that it usually took him four or five days to completely forge the Flying Sword sword embryos.
But that was in other places; here...
It wouldn’t work.
The water changes daily.
If forging the Fla Sword started in the morning and wasn’t completed by nightfall, how would the flow of Water Transport continue?
It seed he needn’t worry about this; with such rich Water Transport, the Flying Sword would surely be forged within a day.
’Certainly, it’s a place verified by the Li Family for forging Flying Swords, how could they overlook such matters?’
With new Heart Thought, Ji Yuan began to carefully perceive the Water Transport here.
He wasn’t in a hurry to absorb it.
Although he initially planned to forge the Fla Sword, he ultimately needed to observe the night Water Transport.
If the Water Transport at night proved better, forging a "Cold Mirage Sword" wouldn’t be impossible.
After all, having co, why hurry?
Thus, he waited for more than half a day, and the originally boiling, churning pool water suddenly subsided in the Ice and Fire Pool.
Ji Yuan imdiately opened his eyes.
Previously bubbling with fiery red steam, the pool water now subsided.
The surface beca exceedingly calm, the previous red gradually fading away.
In just a few breaths, the center of the lake had already turned transparent.
...Truly marvelous!
Ji Yuan watched the scene change, and the lake water cooled faster and faster.
A mont later, the entire deep pool showed no trace of red anymore.
The pool water... had returned to normal.
But this normalcy lasted only a few breaths; then Ji Yuan sensed an icy aura emanating from the pool water before him.
"Crack... crack..."
The lake surface rapidly began to freeze, but the ice quickly fractured inch by inch, sinking into the water, and subsequently, the deep pool no longer showed any sign of icing, only extre coldness.
Ji Yuan’s physique was far superior to that of ordinary people, so he could withstand it; otherwise, trying to forge a Flying Sword in such frigid conditions would be exceedingly difficult.
The lake water remained unfrozen but was exceptionally cold.
This was enough to indicate that the water before him was no ordinary water.
Ji Yuan thought about filling a Jade Bottle with so to show Hua Yaoyue but decided against it.
If he really wanted to do so, he’d have to wait until the Flying Sword was successfully forged.
