He had agreed to do one thing for Cecilia even before he had anything ambiguous with Cecilia .
He had almost forgotten it until Cecilia reminded him . He thought that Cecilia came to the ancient continent just to collect the treasures of Water Class . In the middle of the desert, Cecilia had harvested a lot of Water Heart Crystals . He assumed that those crystals were the reason why she was here .
Today, Shi Yan finally understood that he was completely wrong after listening to her .
"You've agreed with me . Will you help me?" Cecilia begged him .
Shi Yan smiled and nodded naturally . "It's true . I agreed with you . Of course, I will help you . "
Shi Yan and Cecilia walked behind the group . When Cecilia talked to him, she held his hand, so they had to stop walking for a while, which gave them a little distance from the others .
People who walked in the front couldn't hear their conversation .
Mo Fou was still scouting ahead . That strange lake stood in front of him where the images of the suns and the moons were reflected . However, there weren't only one sun and one moon . They counted and found nine dazzling suns and nine bright moons .
Gray clouds stuck in the horizon . This place didn't have a single star, which made the reflections of the suns and the moons in the lake so odd .
It made people not dare to act rashly .
Mo Fou stopped . He urged his energy and tried to sense the surrounding .
Audrey frowned and said, "We need to swim across the lake . The areas around the lake are even more perilous . "
No one dared to doubt Audrey . They changed their visage and studied the lake . Their hearts sank and felt helter-skelter .
Audrey looked at Mo Fou and said indifferently, "You still need two more miles . You go first . "
Mo Fou's countenance changed .
According to their agreement, they would take turns to scout . After he finished his ten miles, the Wu brothers would take their turn . He had finished eight miles . If that damn lake wasn't there, he could finish his turn smoothly .
But now . . .
Mo Fou wore a dark face . He accepted his unfortunate fate, sighing and preparing to jump into the lake .
"Wait a minute . "
However, at this moment, Shi Yan called out from their back and sauntered to their front .
People didn't know what was going on and they just turned around to look at him . Mo Fou had no clue . He asked, "Is there anything you want me to do for you?" He sounded friendly because Shi Yan had helped him many times during this trip .
"You stay here . We will enter the lake first," Shi Yan turned to look at Cecilia .
They now noticed Cecilia following him closely . Her charming face was stern .
"You two?" Shang Ying Yue screamed in surprise .
Shi Yan waved his hand as he said, "That lake is a little strange . Let's go there first . We will notify you later . "
Mo Fou showed great gratitude .
They all could see that the lake had something weird . Mo Fou had prepared to encounter dangers . At this critical point, Shi Yan suddenly took the responsibility . Although Mo Fou didn't know his intention, he had appreciated Shi Yan from the bottom of his heart . He had made up his mind that whenever Shi Yan and Audrey had a dispute, he would stand on Shi Yan's side .
"Thank you," Mo Fou exhaled in relief . He backed off and said sincerely, "You must be careful . This lake isn't normal at all . "
Audrey frowned . She studied Shi Yan and then Cecilia, and then snorted . She didn't voice her opinion in this .
If Audrey didn't have any opinion, of course, no one would oppose it . They decided this task that way .
When Shi Yan and Cecilia came by the lake, he gestured and said to the others, "Guys, back off . I need to talk to Cecilia . "
Audrey nodded . The other warriors stepped backed and left Shang Ying Yue at her spot, looking at Shang Ying Yue and Cecilia worriedly .
Shi Yan smiled and didn't mind Shang Ying Yue who stood still at her spot . He asked calmly, "Can you explain the situation now?" He looked at Cecilia .
"I have an elderly teacher . Ten thousand years ago, she used to visit this area . . . " said Cecilia sadly .
Her teacher cultivated Water power Upanishad and she had lived for more than ten thousand years . The last time this planet opened, she had come here with her husband . They had made it to the Center of the ancient continent and reached this lake . Her husband went to the lake and sank little by little as if he was pulled by something invisible and drowned .
While he was sinking to the bottom of the lake, he sent his wife the soul message and asked her not to get into the lake no matter what . He told her to stay and wait for him .
Cecilia's teacher had waited for him .
Not long after that, the lake became normal and had no reflections . Everything became pretty normal .
Cecilia's teacher couldn't sense any commotion of her husband . She entered the lake to search but found nothing . Her husband seemed to have vanished into thin air .
Right after that, she stopped her expedition of this ancient continent to search the lake for years . When the ancient continent kicked her out, she hadn't found her husband yet .
It became a sickness in her heart .
Afterward, she left the ancient continent and returned to her life star . She had continued to search for her husband's whereabouts . Unfortunately, she didn't have a clue .
She was sure that her husband had disappeared in this lake on the ancient continent . Perhaps he had been dragged into a strange domain or confined somewhere . Probably . . . he had died . . .
She stopped yearning for the day she could reunite with her husband . However, she wanted to see his remains . Thus, she accepted a disciple and taught her skills and abilities . She had even tried to find a Guiding Fruit for her to send her to the ancient continent the next time . She hoped that her disciple could fulfill her wish .
"My teacher used to tell me that this lake has some power of Water with the Space power . She couldn't see its real competence . She told me that it would be possible to enter the lake when I go there with someone cultivates Space power Upanishad . Then, we can decode the riddle of this lake," Cecilia looked at Shi Yan .
Shi Yan suddenly understood .
No wonder why Cecilia showed a deep interest in him when she saw him using Space power Upanishad . Later on, she wanted to go with him and shoulder to fight Mia's team .
Cecilia had wanted to count on his power earlier .
Because he knew Space power Upanishad .
"I want to enter the lake . I've promised my teacher to help her find her husband's remains . My teacher has done so many things for me to come here and to have my attainment today . I won't let her down," Cecilia looked at Shi Yan tenderly, "Please help me . . . "
"Alright," Shi Yan smiled and agreed with her . He turned to Shang Ying Yue and said to her, "You heard it, right . We know what had happened . I will jump to the lake with her . Don't worry . We will be alright . "
"I'm going with you guys," Shang Ying Yue suggested all of a sudden .
"No need," Shi Yan waved his hand to stop her . "I can deal with it . You just stay here . Leave it to me . "
Shi Yan didn't wait for Shang Ying Yue to talk more, directly jumping and pulling Cecilia into the lake . No water splashed . It seemed like they had just walked through a door and disappeared .
Shang Ying Yue was scared .
Shi Yan and Cecilia had jumped into the lake . She saw it with her own eyes . However, she couldn't see any signal of them in the lake . Cecilia and Shi Yan seemed to have vanished into thin air right at that moment .
The lake was still clear and bright like a mirror with the reflections of the suns, moons, and the cotton clouds . Everything looked normal .
Shang Ying Yue felt her hair rising on her nape .
Where have Shi Yan and Cecilia gone?
Audrey, Mo Fou, Sha Zhao, and the others also saw Shi Yan and Shang Ying Yue jump into the lake . They dashed forward and stood by Shang Ying Yue to look at the lake skeptically .
Shang Ying Yue took a deep breath . She told Audrey what she had found . Since she knew Audrey had a supernatural ability, she wanted to use her to find Shi Yan and Cecilia .
Audrey changed her visage . She immediately closed her eyes to urge the soul altar . She wanted to use the secret technique of the soul-searching of the Imperial Dark Tribe . She set her Soul Consciousness to the lake .
After a while, Audrey shook her head, her face cold . She confirmed, "This lake doesn't have their auras!"
They then wore heavy faces .
"Don't rush . Shi Yan isn't like the others . I think he could deal with it . " Audrey contemplated for a while and then comforted them, "We just have to wait here and see . "
Since they didn't have any better idea, they had to agree with her . They scattered by the lake and focused on the water, waiting for Shi Yan's commotion in silence .
---------------------
"Where are we? This is absolutely not the bottom of the lake!"
Cecilia looked at the sky and screamed in surprise .
Shi Yan also wore a strange countenance . Lifting his head to look at the sky, he mumbled, "Is it a real world?"
The dark red sky held nine suns and nine moons arranged in some particular formation . The eighteen suns and moons radiated the hot sunlight and the cold moonlight, which looked like a light column piercing through the sky and earth to illuminate this area .
The ground under their feet was like a massive crystal with dazzling light streamers moving inside .
Above their heads were the suns and moons and under their feet was the galaxy of stars . This strange world couldn't be caught even in their fantasy dreams . It looked so strange, indeed .
Shi Yan wasn't so sure if those things were all real . He urged his soul altar and focused on his Ethereal Extent and the Star power Upanishad .
Swish! Swish! Swish!
The sunlight, moonlight in the sky, and the starlight streamers underground suddenly surged torrentially as if they were revived . Together, they flooded his body .
The sunlight and moonlight columns above their heads moved, all shining on Shi Yan's body .
"Oh Gosh! They are real!"
Shi Yan couldn't help but whine, his face disbelieving .
It was not a fantasy world!
The suns, moons, and stars in the imaginary world couldn't bring him any energy . His Star power Upanishad couldn't work in a fantasy world . But it was real here . Is this place . . . still the ancient continent?
Cecilia covered her mouth, looking at the fierce shower of sunlight, moonlight, and starlight swarming Shi Yan . Suddenly, she saw an Ethereal Extent emerge over Shi Yan's head . She could even see the sun in that Ethereal Extent . Magically, it looked quite similar to the world they were at .
