Chapter 306 Underwater Formation Center
Hu Qing pulled Gu Yang to the center of the pool. The two of them hovered in the air, overlooking the pool below.
The water around the pool was dark green, as if it was eroded by some strange force, except for a white area in the center, which was where the pile of bones was.
The sunlight shines on the water, reflecting a silver ripple, but the field of bones is particularly dazzling, as if silently telling some horror story.
"This pond is quite problematic."
Hu Qing said in a low voice, his eyes filled with a bit of solemnity. His spiritual sense swept across the pool of water, sensing a cold aura emanating from the bone field, as if warning them not to approach.
Gu Yang gripped the Soul Devouring Blade tightly, his brow furrowed, "The question now is, how do we dig up this field of bones underwater?
Working underwater is too risky. If those earthworms or other monsters suddenly attack, we won't have time to react."
Hu Qing pondered for a moment and whispered, "Perhaps, we can use spiritual power to separate the water in the pond, revealing the bones underneath, and then use a spiritual power barrier to block the water."
Gu Yang heard this, and a hint of excitement flashed in his eyes: "That's a good idea! Let's give it a try!"
Hu Qing did it right away. He took out the King Sword from the storage ring, and the sword body was shining with a faint golden light.
He took a deep breath, and poured his spiritual power into the sword, causing a dazzling light to appear on the blade.
He gripped the sword with both hands and swung it fiercely towards the pool.
"boom--!"
The moment the sword energy touched the water surface, it exploded instantly, and the water in the pool was overturned by a huge force and exploded into the air.
Water splashed everywhere, and the bone field at the bottom of the pool finally revealed its true appearance.
The pile of bones looked particularly glaring in the sunlight, as if silently telling some horror story.
However, this was not enough. Although part of the pool was uncovered, the surrounding water quickly rushed in, trying to refill the area.
"Brother Gu, it's your turn!" Hu Qing said in a low voice, with a hint of urgency in his tone.
He was already prepared to create a spiritual barrier and release it immediately as soon as he landed.
Gu Yang nodded, gripped the Soul Devouring Blade tightly, and a hint of coldness flashed in his eyes.
He took a deep breath, his spiritual power surged in his body, and a faint layer of lightning appeared on the blade.
He suddenly swung his knife and shouted, "Lei Ben——!"
"Boom——!"
Several bolts of lightning burst out from the blade, moving across the water like silver snakes.
The power of thunder completely overturned the water in the pool, splashing into the sky and revealing the entire bottom of the pool.
The pile of bones looked particularly dazzling under the reflection of thunder. The surrounding green algae were all crushed by the rushing electric current, and the water became more turbid.
"Now!" Hu Qing shouted softly, pulling Gu Yang and quickly landing on the ground of bones.
He formed seals with his hands, and his spiritual power transformed into a barrier that enveloped the two of them.
The water splashed down again due to gravity, hitting the spiritual barrier like a waterfall.
The water pressure was so huge that ripples appeared on the surface of the barrier, as if it would break at any time.
"Hold on!"
Hu Qing gritted his teeth and quickly increased the spiritual power of the barrier.
A faint halo appeared on the surface of the barrier, and it finally stabilized.
Gu Yang stood inside the barrier, looking at the water curtain pouring down from above his head, secretly rejoicing in his heart:
"Luckily, Ah Qing reacted quickly, otherwise we would have been overwhelmed."
Hu Qing took a deep breath and whispered, "Time is running out. We must find out the secret of this boneyard as soon as possible."
Gu Yang nodded, quickly squatted down, and began to examine the bones on the ground.
There was still some moisture mixed in these bones, and they made a "crunch, cough" sound when stepped on.
"These bones seem to be bound here by some force." Gu Yang said in a low voice, with a serious tone.
He gently touched a white bone with his hand and felt a cold breath coming from the bone, as if warning him not to get close.
Hu Qing glanced at the pile of bones and whispered, “This pile of bones is the core of the formation.
Let's first check if there are any unusual bones nearby, and if not, we'll start excavating."
Hu Qing and Gu Yang squatted in the pile of bones, carefully searching every bone.
"There are actually hundreds of different types of these bones..." Gu Yang said in a low voice, with a hint of shock in his tone.
He picked up a monster bone and carefully examined the patterns on it, wondering to himself, "Where on earth did these bones come from?"
Hu Qing nodded, his eyes filled with a bit of solemnity: "Also, judging from the age of these bones, it seems that someone threw them here one after another.
This field of bones has probably existed for a long time."
The two men picked up the bones one by one and placed them aside in categories.
As the bones were cleared, a blood-red ground was revealed underneath.
Countless golden lines were carved on the ground, intricate and complex, like some kind of ancient runes.
The golden thread flickered faintly under the water, as if it could trigger this strange formation at any time.
"Sure enough, this is the core of the formation." Hu Qing squatted down and gently touched the golden threads with his hand, feeling a weak but stable fluctuation of spiritual power.
With a look of certainty in his eyes, he whispered, "This golden thread is the pattern of the formation. The key to the formation should be hidden underneath."
Gu Yang gripped the Soul Devouring Blade tightly, a hint of excitement flashing in his eyes: "Then what are you waiting for? Dig it up and take a look!"
However, at this moment, the water outside the barrier suddenly surged violently, forming huge whirlpools that slammed towards the spiritual barrier.
The water pressure was so great that ripples appeared on the surface of the barrier. There were already some cracks on it, and it felt like it would break at any moment.
"not good!"
Hu Qing let out a low cry and quickly formed seals with his hands, injecting more spiritual power into the barrier.
A faint halo appeared on the surface of the barrier, barely stabilizing its position.
However, the impact of water pressure caused beads of sweat to ooze out of his forehead. It was obvious that maintaining the barrier was not easy.
Seeing this, Gu Yang felt secretly anxious.
He gripped the shovel tightly in his hand and whispered, "Ah Qing, hold on, I'll dig up the ground!"
After he finished speaking, he quickly squatted down and stabbed the shovel into the ground.
"Crack——!"
With a crisp sound, the shovel broke into two pieces, but the golden thread on the ground did not move at all, without even a scratch left.
"This...how is it possible!" Gu Yang widened his eyes, his tone filled with disbelief.
He slapped the ground hard and found that it was as hard as iron and could not be shaken at all.
While maintaining the barrier, Hu Qing whispered, "This ground is protected by a formation, and ordinary tools cannot destroy it.
We must find the center of the formation to break it."
Gu Yang nodded, stood up quickly, and glanced at the piles of bones around him.
He whispered, "Where will the center of the formation be?"
