Chapter 5294: The key is in the river

Translator: 549690339

Lin Yi looked at her and took out a wooden bowl from his Jade s.p.a.ce. He filled it up with river water and handed it to her.Hero, drink this bowl of river water!

Duanmu Yu rolled his eyes. He took the wooden bowl and tasted it. He smacked his lips and frowned.Other than being a little bitter, this is just normal river water.

From this, it can be seen that the key is definitely not in the river. Lin Yi concluded.

Then whats the key? Duanmu Yu asked.

In the river. Lin Yi was very sure. If this was just a normal River, he wouldnt think that way, but this River was extremely wide and covered in a layer of fog. No matter how he looked at it, it was unusual. Lin Yi would find it strange if there was nothing strange about it.

Do you want to go down and take a look? Duanmu Yu asked. Although he couldnt see the end of the river, the water nearby was still very clear. He could even see the bottom of the river with a single glance. If he just fumbled around the area near the sh.o.r.e, he would be able to escape in time even if he encountered danger. There shouldnt be any big problems.

Its best not to do this unless its the last resort. Lin Yi shook his head decisively. He couldnt give an exact reason, but his instinct told him that this River wasnt as simple as it seemed. If he went in recklessly, he might run into some kind of danger.

But what else can we do other than go down the river? Duanmu Yu helplessly said.

Lets not worry about the spirit Sense River for now, lets look for spirit sense gra.s.s first, didnt you say it was near the spirit Sense River? Lin Yi suggested. He could put the river of consciousness aside for now and think of a way to figure it out. The spirit gra.s.s was more important-if he could find it, it didnt matter if he could refine his spirit sense in the river.

Not nearby, but in the river. Duanmu Yu said.

In the river? Lin Yi frowned,Could it be that the so-called spirit Sense rivers spirit sense tempering effect is referring to the spirit sense gra.s.s?

Its possible. Duanmu Yu nodded his head. Aside from a few ancient records, there was no concrete conclusion that had been pa.s.sed down. The so-called tempering of the spiritual awareness was just an extremely vague description. Perhaps it was referring to the spiritual awareness gra.s.s. It was just that the ancient records did not clearly point it out.

So we really have to go down? Lin Yis head started to hurt-his instincts were rarely wrong, and he really didnt want to go into the river unless he had to.

Thats not necessarily the case, we can wait for the river to ebb and then go down to find spirit sense gra.s.s. As long as we come up before the tide rises, itll be fine. Duanmu Yu said. This was a method pa.s.sed down from her sect. If it wasnt for this, how could it be so easy to find the spiritual awareness gra.s.s growing in the river?

Alright, he said. Lin Yis eyes brightened. A River this wide had to have a tide, and going down when the tide was low would still be risky, but it was much less dangerous than just going down like that. It was a feasible idea.

After the two of them had come up with a plan, they sat down by the river to rest and recuperate while waiting for the tide to fall.

After a while, the river water receded, and the bottom of the river appeared in front of the two. Lin Yi and Duanmu Yu stood up at the same time and looked at each other before entering the river to look for the consciousness gra.s.s.

It was low, but it wasnt completely dry yet-only a small part of the riverbed was exposed. The two had to hurry and search this part of the riverbed-theyd have to return to sh.o.r.e when the tide came and wait for the next low tide.

What the two of them didnt expect was that the bottom of the river of consciousness was unexpectedly lush and green. All kinds of aquatic plants could be found all over the ground. It was easier said than done to search for spiritual awareness gra.s.s that they had never seen before. Even if Duanmu Yu knew some of its general characteristics, it would still not be an easy task.

Lets take it slow. Theres no limit to the number of times we can search. Well search one section this time and another next time. If theres really spirit sense gra.s.s, I believe well find something. Lin Yi said.

Well, then lets start from the deepest river bed. When the tide rises, well look for the sh.o.r.e. That way, well have more time. Duanmu Yu suggested.

Sure. Lin Yi nodded.

The two started searching from the center of the river-it was about four miles away from the sh.o.r.e, but even with Lin Yis spirit sense, he couldnt tell how wide the river was, let alone the boundary of the other side. This spirit Sense River was so wide that it made ones hair stand on end. People who didnt know might think that it was an ocean.

The mud is a little deep. Lin Yi frowned when he was halfway there-the mud was already up to his thighs, and it looked like hed have to reach his chest at the very end. Itd be hard for a normal person to even move, let alone find the spirit sense gra.s.s in this environment. They might even lose their lives if they couldnt even get back to the water.

But this was a normal person-it was nothing to a Foundation Stage master. At most, there would be some obstruction to his movements. Lin Yi, on the other hand, was still in his Yuan spirit form. Although he had all the parts in his body, he was much lighter than his body. As long as he controlled his weight, he wouldnt sink even if he was standing on mud.

Of course, Lin Yi actually had an even simpler way, and that was to transform into a spirit. However, he felt that this place gave him a strange sense of danger. If something happened to his spirit, he might not even have the chance to react. He didnt dare to do that.

Duanmu Yu, on the other hand, was equally calm, walking on the mud as if it was flat ground. He looked even more elegant and silent than Lin Yi, and when he saw Lin Yis surprised look, he smiled and explained,Silent falling leaves is a special light body martial art technique of our spirit leaf sect.

Its not bad, Lin Yi praised from the bottom of his heart. This wasnt a compliment-he could see the value of silent leaves. Using it to deal with mud was a waste of talent. This kind of silent movement technique could only display its greatest value in actual combat. As the big Senior Sister of the leaf spirit sect, Duanmu Yu was indeed not simple.

Duanmu Yu smiled and started searching for spirit sense gra.s.s. Lin Yi didnt waste any time either. They couldnt stay here for long. They had to be fast.

The two of them were very efficient, but even so, they still got nothing. When the tide rose, they returned to the sh.o.r.e empty-handed and looked at each other.

It seems that this matter isnt that easy. We have to be prepared for a protracted war. Duanmu Yu said with a bitter smile.
