Chapter 10 Cold Stone
After signing the contract, Ye Wuyou entered the whistling pit. The pit was very deep and the sun could not shine in. Fortunately, a soul lamp would be placed in the pit every distance. As long as the soul power was injected into the soul lamp, the soul lamp would shine. The blessing of the soul lamp, although the sunlight was not seen all year round, it also lit into the daytime.
When he arrived at the bottom of the mine, Ye Wuyou saw a clear pond with blue waves rippling, as if a beauty was lying across the pond. The surface of the pond was covered with a thin layer of fog, making his beautiful figure not so real, and everything was like a beautiful illusion. The bottom of the pond was shining with many fluorescent lights, like dancing elves, beautiful!
"The floating light leaps gold, and the quiet shadow sinks into the jade! I thought it was just a fantasy in the hearts of the ancients, but I didn't expect that there was such a beautiful scene in the world!" Looking at the scenery in front of me, Ye Wuyou murmured.
What shines is the purpose of Ye Wuyou's trip - cold stone. Cold stone is a very magical substance. Cold stone cannot be preserved for a long time. Once the cold stone leaves the cold pond, it will disappear at a speed visible to the naked eye. A fist-sized cold stone will turn into nothingness in about half a year. Therefore, cold stones are rare in other places in the Giant Spirit Continent. Therefore, cold stones bring huge profits to Dongyang every year due to their unique role and rareness.
The water quality of the Hantan is very unique. It is particularly heavy. Even if the water is good, it will fall down in the Hantan. If you enter the Hantan, you will find an inexplicable suction force pulling you into the Hantan. The more you go in, the stronger the suction force. So if you want to go into the Hantan to catch cold stones, you must resist the cold pool and the suction force of the cold pool water at the same time. If you want to resist these, you must activate your soul power with all your strength, which will make the soul power consume very quickly. If you have not left the Hantan before your soul power is exhausted, then congratulations, you will never be able to see the sun tomorrow again.
Looking at the clear and transparent water, Ye Wuyou suddenly had the idea of touching it. He gently touched the cold pond water with his hand. He didn't feel anything yet. The conditioned reflex at his hand shrank back, and then there was an unimaginable pain.
"Wow!" Ye Wuyou looked at his red fingers and let out a sore cry! The so-called coldness and bone-blackness, Ye Wuyou's move was a good lesson for him. The cold pond water was cold, and Old Man Xu had repeatedly told him. At first, Ye Wuyou didn't care, because in his opinion, as long as it was water, the temperature would not be lower than zero degrees Celsius. Obviously, Ye Wuyou had not been able to convert it yet.
"Even if you consider the air pressure, no matter how low the temperature of the water is, there will be a limit. The cold pond water gives people the feeling of pricking deeply into your hand. This is not just a cold level. Even if you stay in the cold pond for a long time, it will hurt to death even if you don't feel cold. Well, it may not be necessary. You may have no feeling before you die! Is this really water? Or is it that the physical and chemical laws of your previous life not useful here?" Ye Wuyou scratched his head and asked himself in confusion.
"Well! No matter what, I'm here to catch cold stones. Exploring something is not my task!" After a long time, Ye Wuyou felt that his fingers could move, so he decided to try again. This time he wrapped his fingers with his soul power and carefully reached into the cold pond.
"Um! It's so cold!" Ye Wuyou exclaimed, but this time he found that he could withstand the cold water of the cold pond and retracted his hand. Ye Wuyou found that the soul power on his finger had disappeared.
In fact, the reason why the cold pond water is so cold is because the cold pond water contains a trace of ice-attributed soul power. After using soul power to offset it, the cold pond water is also relatively cooler and heavier water, and will not cause any harm to people. However, the water contains soul power that indicates that there is an ice-attributed treasure hidden in the cold pond. It seems that this treasure is in the deepest part of the cold pond. No one is sure to find this thing before the soul power is exhausted. A third-level soul guide once went down to the cold pond and was eager to find this treasure, but this third-level soul guide was forced to retreat after diving into the cold pond about 500 meters. According to this soul guide, if he did not retreat, his soul power would be exhausted in less than five minutes. In order to survive, he had to give up. However, since then, the third-level soul guide has settled in Dongyang Town. This is a later story, so I won't mention it for now.
Back to the book, Ye Wuyou gathered different amounts of soul power in his hands to explore the extent to which the cold pond water consumed the soul power. After trying the chicken wings, Ye Wuyou felt that if he was counted as the limit, he could stay under the water for five minutes and count the reverse route, which means that Ye Wuyou had two and a half minutes of diving time.
Looking at the cold stones in the cold pond, the distribution of the cold stones gives people the feeling that they have been washed up by water, but generally the cold stones are smaller, and the quality of the cold stones is evaluated according to the size of the cold stones, and they are divided into three levels: upper, middle and lower. Ye Wuyou needs to pay ten lower grade cold stones, while a medium grade cold stone is worth five lower grade cold stones, and the top grade ten, but the places where the medium grade and top grade cold stones are not good, Ye Wuyou can go now, and with Ye Wuyou's current strength, he can only try his luck on the shore.
After the test, Ye Wuyou spread his soul power all over his body, leaving only a pair of shorts. Looking at the ice crystals around him, Ye Wuyou shivered and found a cold stone five meters away.
Ye Wuyou retreated, accelerated, jumped, held his breath, and stirred up layers of water marks and waves! With the help of his soul power, Ye Wuyou felt that the cold pool water was about four or five degrees, but Ye Wuyou found that he fell uncontrollably in the water! Until the bottom of the pool, Ye Wuyou was surprised to find that the water in the cold pool pulled him in. Standing at the bottom of the pool was the same as standing on the shore. If it were not for the resistance of the water, Ye Wuyou even felt that he was still standing on the shore.
In the water, Ye Wuyou's soul power was consumed faster. He knew that he could not waste time, so he picked up the cold stone and ran back quickly. It would be fine if he didn't run. The cold pond water seemed to have died of taking the wrong medicine, and he grabbed Ye Wuyou tightly. Ye Wuyou had to use more soul power to offset the pulling force. Ye Wuyou's heart was beating fast. Now it was the time of life and death. Ye Wuyou didn't dare to delay at all. He tried his best to run, saying that he was running, but in fact the speed was faster than walking. Ye Wuyou felt that his legs were heavy, and he had to try his best every step. Time was walking minute by minute. Ye Wuyou consumed his physical energy very quickly, and his soul power disappeared like burning. However, the fastest consumption was Ye Wuyou's oxygen. Ye Wuyou was only a five-year-old child after all. How big the lung capacity can a child have? Thirty seconds passed Ye Wuyou felt that he was almost exhausted.
Finally, "Puff!!! Um!" Ye Wuyou still couldn't hold it in, and took a mouthful of cold pool water. Ye Wuyou felt that he had vomited countless needles in an instant, and was in great pain. He felt that he covered his mouth with his hands and mobilized his soul power to offset the ice-attribute soul power of the cold pool water entering his lungs. Ye Wuyou tried his best to squeeze every trace of his strength. His eyes were approaching the boss, and his eyes looked directly at a stone on the shore, because Ye Wuyou must now give him a target that he can see, otherwise he might not be able to hold on!
"It's approaching! It's approaching!!" Ye Wuyou roared in his heart! Finally, at the moment when his soul power was about to be exhausted, Ye Wuyou rushed out of the cold pond.
"Cough cough~ cough!!" Ye Wuyou walked on the shore to cough, and didn't even wipe the water from his body. When Ye Wuyou saw the cold stone, the place where he saw the cold stone was only seven or eight meters away from the shore. It was usually a journey of just now. However, this short seven or eight meters almost cost Ye Wuyou's life. Even if he was a few seconds later, Ye Wuyou's soul power would be exhausted. At that time, the part where Ye Wuyou stayed in the cold pond would be attacked by the ice-attributed soul power of the cold pond water. The coldness was enough to instantly make Ye Wuyou faint in pain. It was no different from being dead in this icy and snowy place.
After leaving the dangerous ground, Ye Wuyou did not dare to relax at all. He desperately activated the small amount of soul power in his body to resist the severe cold and prevent himself from being frozen. Fortunately, the cold on the shore was just simple cold. Ye Wuyou's soul power was consumed and supplemented roughly the same. In the cold pool, Ye Wuyou could not absorb any soul power, and it all depends on reserves. This was something Ye Wuyou had never expected before.
After a long time, Ye Wuyou recovered almost. He got up and wiped the water from his body, put on his clothes, and pondered at the cold stone that was fluorescent in his hand. The cold stone was very light, and it looked like he was holding a piece of ice in his hand.
"For such a small thing, I almost let you carry it here!" Ye Wuyou Nannan said. He was thinking of other ways to catch the soul stone. You must know that the cold stone in his hand is closest to the shore, and the others are ten meters away. Even if Ye Wuyou caught it, he would have no life to take it ashore.
