Capítulo 1236: Chapter 1236: The Legend of the Divine Water
“Well, then I must listen closely!”
Chen Feng said with a faint smile.
Hu Yiming cleared his throat and casually began to tell Chen Feng.
It turns out.
The Tie Sect had long been scheming to uncover the Five Elents Sect’s secret stash.
So, over the years, they have been relentlessly searching for the whereabouts of the Five Elents Linglong Tower.
The Divine Water Pagoda was accidentally discovered by the Tie Sect during one such search.
About half a year ago.
In the rural outskirts of Coastal City, in a small village called Jiancheng Village.
The Tie Sect conducted a wide-scale search there.
Initially, they found nothing at all.
The Tie Sect was about to leave empty-handed.
But at that mont, they inadvertently heard a legend circulating among the villagers.
Behind Jiancheng Village, there’s a river called Sand River.
Legend has it.
Deep within this Sand River, there is a treasure that resembles a pagoda.
Every year on the night of the full moon.
This pagoda-like treasure erges on the water’s surface, absorbing the essence of the moon, radiating a pale blue light.
However, none of the villagers have ever actually seen this treasure.
There were villagers bold enough to venture out near the river on such nights to see.
But they never witnessed the supposed glowing treasure.
As ti went on, no one bothered to verify it further, rely dismissing it as a legend.
Nonetheless.
This legend caught the Tie Sect’s attention.
After all, at that ti, their search for the Five Elents Linglong Tower was in a shroud of mystery, yielding no results.
Finally, a clue erged, even if it was just a legend.
They wished to verify it.
What if the Divine Water Pagoda was truly there?
Thus, the Tie Sect imdiately dispatched an Earth Rank Perfection expert to lead the team, arriving at Sand River behind Jiancheng Village on the night of the full moon.
That night, upon arrival.
The experts searched alongside the riverbank.
It was indeed as the villagers claid.
Under the bright moonlight, the river surface was extraordinarily calm, with no anomaly in sight.
Nor was there any pagoda-like treasure.
Consequently, the Tie Sect mbers were very disappointed and prepared to retreat.
But at that mont.
The Earth Rank Perfection expert leading the team noticed sothing unusual.
To be exact, he sensed sothing unusual.
It should be noted, the sensory perception of an Earth Rank Perfection expert is extrely keen.
He could sense a strange ripple arising within the river water.
Although this ripple was very faint.
It was still detected by the leading Earth Rank Perfection expert.
So, without a second thought, he led his team into the river.
Upon entering the water.
The leader, along with the other experts, were all stunned.
At the deepest part of the river’s bottom.
A blue pagoda, over half a ter tall, emanating a pale blue glow, was floating there.
Witnessing this scene.
The Tie Sect experts were instantly ecstatic.
For that blue pagoda was precisely the Divine Water Pagoda they had been searching for tirelessly.
From appearance to all other aspects, it matched the descriptions in their records exactly.
Yet, villages had said that on the night of the full moon, this Divine Water Pagoda would float to the surface and absorb the essence of the moon.
Why was it now subrged at the river bottom?
No wonder it remained undiscovered.
Thinking about this, the Tie Sect experts beca very curious, eagerly moving closer.
Upon this inspection, the experts finally saw clearly.
The Divine Water Pagoda was indeed floating upwards.
However, wrapping around the pagoda was a rust-covered iron chain.
The other end of the chain was wrapped around a massive boulder at the river’s bottom.
In essence, this iron chain firmly tethered the Divine Water Pagoda.
It was precisely due to this reason.
The Divine Water Pagoda couldn’t rise to the river’s surface as the legend claid.
But who tied the iron chain around the Divine Water Pagoda?
And given the rust on the chain, it must have been there for quite so ti.
This aroused great curiosity among the Tie Sect experts.
But with the Divine Water Pagoda right in front of them.
They didn’t have ti to ponder it too much, hurriedly swimming closer to take the pagoda away.
However, when they swam to within ten ters of the Divine Water Pagoda.
Suddenly, a giant change occurred!
The experts felt the riverbed shake.
All of a sudden.
An enormous creature erged from the riverbed’s silt, blocking the front of the Divine Water Pagoda.
The experts imdiately fixed their gaze.
It turned out to be a blue giant python, several tens of ters long and as thick as a water barrel!
The sight terrified the experts greatly.
Though the Sand River is vast, and its waters deep.
They never expected such a gigantic creature to reside there.
More horrifying still.
Upon its ergence.
The Tie Sect experts, including the leading Earth Rank Perfection expert, felt an overpowering pressure.
That pressure’s intensity was no weaker than that of a Heavenly Rank expert!
aning.
This was indeed a Heavenly Rank Giant Python!
The Tie Sect experts felt their scalps tingle.
In the next mont, abandoning thoughts of the Divine Water Pagoda, without a word, they swiftly swam back to the riverbank.
In such a dire situation, escaping to preserve life was paramount.
They didn’t possess the courage to fight with the Heavenly Rank Giant Python.
For such a confrontation would only lead to one outco: death.
Luckily.
As the Tie Sect experts fled.
The blue python did not pursue them.
It simply circled around the Divine Water Pagoda, seemingly guarding it, refusing to leave.
Upon seeing this, the Tie Sect experts breathed a sigh of relief.
Back on the riverbank.
None dared linger, hastily back to the Tie Sect, reporting the event to the Sect Leader.
Upon hearing the report, the Sect Leader wasted no ti, imdiately dispatching a Heavenly Rank expert to test the blue python’s strength.
But that Heavenly Rank expert only engaged with the blue python briefly before retreating in defeat.
Considering battle in water, even for a Heavenly Rank expert, was inconvenient, restricting strength severely.
Moreover, the blue python was inherently powerful.
An ordinary Heavenly Rank expert stood no chance against it.
Thus, the Heavenly Rank expert was left with no choice but to retreat in defeat.
Since then, the Tie Sect had to temporarily abandon their plans to seize the Divine Water Pagoda.
Given the blue python’s ferocity, compounded by fighting underwater.
Even a Heavenly Rank expert wasn’t its match.
Faced with no options.
The Tie Sect could only keep the matter confidential, dispatching people to secretly monitor Sand River, waiting to devise a thod to tackle the blue python before making further plans.
And so it dragged on, remaining unresolved till this day…
