Chapter 2518
Trepidation remained after the crowd stood up . They kept their head lowered, hands hanging by the waist . Everyone was afraid of provoking him .
He ignored them and said: “Since we’re done here, I can finish my own business . ”
He took out a treasure box taken from the stone forest . Some of the crowd has seen it before during that process but no one knew what was inside .
“What is that?” A participant from that event asked .
Even Jianyao and the saber saint held their breath, wanting to know what was inside as well as his “own business” .
Jianyao found the whole thing perplexing . Remember, he casually handed the nine secrets over to Liu Chuqing .
Given the circumstances, Li Qiye didn’t come to kill Ma Mingchun and the legion, not for the nine secrets either .
All three weren’t worth a trip from him; doing them was only out of convenience . Perhaps this particular business of his was his actual goal in coming to this place, something worthwhile .
Something as precious as the nine secrets weren’t worth his time, but this matter or thing was? It must be something earth-shattering .
Though she has seen numerous treasures and had plenty of experiences, she still wanted to see what Li Qiye was here for .
When he opened the box, a reflection flashed like undulating waves as if it contained jade water .
“Alright, let’s begin . ” He smiled and poured the water out .
“Splash . ” Sure enough, everyone saw that it was extremely clear water once he flipped the box upside-down .
Everyone became surprised . In the beginning, they thought that it contained a peerless treasure, not just this clear liquid .
Strange enough, this liquid had something about it . It exuded an immortal mist so as it fell down to the lake, it looked like the flowing current of a paradisiacal spring .
Perhaps an immortal realm had a crack, allowing this water to ooze down to the mortal world .
This stream of water seemed especially tiny compared to the great lake, akin to a drop of water in an ocean .
Nothing really came of it in the beginning but after a long while, changes to the lake occurred .
“The water is becoming clear . ” The first person to notice told everyone .
The crowd was still wondering what the water was; they looked over after hearing the guy .
Sure enough, the water in the lake was changing at a rapid rate . Prior to this, it had a golden color just like molten gold - dazzling and beautiful .
After the clear liquid started pouring down, the lake turned clear at the dropping point . This clear shade began to spread at an incredible pace . The water of the lake looked just like the liquid in the treasure box now .
Remember, this lake was massive and would require an incalculable amount of clear liquid to fill it up . Strange enough, just the tiny stream from the box was enough to fuse with the entire lake .
“No, not just this one, the other eight are becoming clear too . ” Someone spotted this change first .
It seemed that the nine lakes were connected, so the clear liquid spread from the golden lake to the rest .
They initially had different colors and today, this difference was amplified even more . This was no longer the case .
“The world had a wrong understanding of this legend . ” Jianyao immediately realized something and murmured .
She found that for millions of years now, the sages and geniuses have misunderstood this phenomenon .
People leaped to the sky and saw the receding colors replaced by clearness . The scene was magnificent and stunned them .
“What is going on?” This question popped up in various groups .
One ancestor emotionally said: “This is the first time I’ve seen the lake changing color like this . ”
“No!” He suddenly had an epiphany: “The lake changing color doesn’t refer to their individual shade becoming amplified . This is the real change, this clear liquid! We have misunderstood it all along . ”
The experts nearby were taken aback after hearing this conjecture . Everyone came today and thought that the lakes were changing color as planned since this has always been the case in the past . The ancestor’s speculation said otherwise .
A while later, the lakes have finally changed to the clear shade .
“So this, this is the real thing?” An old man took a deep breath .
The common belief of this phenomenon has been shattered today to the astonishment of the crowd .
“Yeah, I think this is it . ” An aged member of a clan struggled to calm down .
People exchanged glances without speaking, still unable to digest this new change in belief .
Not only were they wrong, but the geniuses and sages from the past were mistaken as well . This included True Emperors and top prodigies .
“So ridiculous . ” Many smiled wryly .
“Well, if this is the real color, what secrets are hidden behind it . ” Another reacted .
People said that during the color-changing process, one could find the profundities of the grand dao, even the nine secrets .
But that pertained to the previous misconception of the lakes . If this was the real phenomenon, what was hidden behind it?
