Chapter 397: Star Lake Phenomena
ir strength wouldn't allow them to survive for long.If they don't leave, even the fluctuations of the battle between Golden Immortal-level powerhouses could easily tear them to shreds.Please: m.bqg99....On the silent lake of Starry Abyss, stars seem to flow against the current. This is where the name "Starry Abyss" originates from. Above the surface of Starry Abyss, countless stars shimmer and twinkle. Their light converges on the lake's surface, creating a breathtaking spectacle. However, this seemingly flat surface appears as if it's made up of countless mirrors reflecting the starlight. This unique environment gives off an otherworldly feel; from afar, it seems like fallen stars are rising back into the sky, adding a touch of mystery to this peaceful lake.
On the placid surface of the lake, a small boat rocked gently. At the stern, a barefoot strong man with a straw hat on his back, rowed silently, lost in thought.
At the edge of a table inside the boat house, several people sat. There was a middle-aged woman in plain clothes, with her black hair pulled up, revealing a graceful neck. She had some freckles on her nose, but she was still somewhat attractive. She was the highest cultivator on the boat, at the ninth level of Qi Refining, and remained silent.
Another pair of grandfather and grandson turned out to be acquaintances of Lu Xia Tian's, Zhao Yuan Jun and Zhao Li, the Zhao family grandfather and grandson they had met at Di Yan Mountain. At this time, Zhao Yuan Jun was already a cultivator at the first level of Foundation Establishment. Unexpectedly, the other party's opportunity was also quite good. He could still successfully build a foundation at this age, which was rare and unprecedented. As for his granddaughter Zhao Li, she was now a graceful young lady. Both parties had practiced the Concealing Breath Technique, and the first time they approached each other, they sensed the familiar aura on each other's bodies. It seemed that the Zhao family grandfather and grandson didn't expect to meet Lu Xia Tian here either.
Besides these three, there was a young man in brocade robes holding a fan named Wu Xing, his beautiful younger sister, Wu Yiy, wearing a green skirt. There was also a yellow-haired old man who called himself Huang Laogui. As for the one rowing the boat, he called himself Zuo Xian.
Lu Xiaitian had arrived at this deserted Star Lake for several months. Star Lake was vast and boundless, but it was desolate and uninhabited. The spiritual creatures were scarce here, and even in such a large lake, demonic beasts rarely appeared. The spiritual energy was also very thin. Under such circumstances, naturally few cultivators were willing to come here. Even the invading foreign cultivators selectively ignored this place, after all, Star Lake had no value worth fighting for. Although the place was vast, it had no defensible points and no spiritual creatures to be used. It was useless to occupy it. Moreover, the Moon Viewing Cultivation World was vast and boundless. Although the foreign cultivators were a coalition of several domains, they could only focus on attacking key points. How could they possibly divide their troops everywhere

Lu Xiaotien had been carefully leaving the Fire-Riding Tribe's cave range after leaving Yin Feng Valley, only then taking out his Qingfeng sail and rushing all the way to Ji Xing Lake to search for the legendary Ji Xing Stone. It took him several months of searching. Not even a single spirit stone was found, let alone the legendary Ji Xing Stone. He even began to doubt if Su Hongchou had lied to him. But then he thought that Su Hongchou had no reason to deceive a junior like him. Moreover, Lei Wantian was present at the time, and even if Su Hongchou didn't acknowledge him as a junior, he would still have to consider his reputation within the sect.
Lu Xia Tian didn't discover these cultivators on board until now, and he found out that they were also searching for the Ji Xing Stone. After inquiring, he learned that he was a latecomer, and even the Zhao family grandfather and grandson, who had stayed here the shortest time, had been circling around Ji Xing Lake for over three years.
At the invitation of these people, Lu Xia Tian thought to himself that instead of bumping around aimlessly like a headless fly, it would be better to follow this group. Since they were all looking for the Ji Xing Stone, after so many years of searching in this Ji Xing Lake, they must have some clues. There's strength in numbers, and this isn't something that just depends on high cultivation level. Sometimes, a bit of luck is also needed.
“There’s something strange about this lake. I’ve been rowing for a while now and I’m getting tired. Now it’s your turn.” Left Xian, after rowing at the stern of the boat for a while, gasped for breath, “This decrepit Jixing Lake is like a dead lake. Even fish are rarely seen here normally. I think finding the legendary Jixing Stone will take quite some time.”
After finishing his words, Zuo Xian had already walked over from the stern of the boat, picked up the spirit tea on the table, and gulped down a few mouthfuls.
“You’ve only run this far and you're already out of breath Shame on you, claiming to be in the middle stage of Foundation Building.” Huang Laogui said with a sarcastic tone, “You wouldn’t be trying to cheat, would you”

"Alright, Yellow Old Monster, if you have the guts, go ahead and try." Zuo Xian chuckled with amusement.

"Try if you dare! If I find out that you're slacking off, I'll paddle you into the lake!" Huang Lao Gui rolled up his sleeves and walked to the back of the boat. He grasped the oars in both hands, ready to row, but suddenly felt a weight on his hand. He couldn't help but let out a surprised exclamation.

"What's wrong" the wooden club woman asked in a hushed voice.
“It is indeed rather strange. The water in this lake seems to have an alluring quality; it takes quite a bit of effort to paddle against it. It’s no wonder that Left Immortal couldn’t handle it.” Old Monster Huang had a peculiar expression on his face, clearly having just chastised Left Immortal, and now he was saying this, essentially talking to himself.

"Is that so I'll give it a try." Wu Xing also walked over with great interest.
Everyone who had tried this discovered the anomaly. Even Lu Xia Tian shook his oar, finding that the water beneath was incredibly viscous and the boat's hole moved increasingly slower.Of all the people present, only Zhao Li was a Qi Refining cultivator, while the rest were Foundation Establishment cultivators. Logically, they wouldn't need to take a boat; they could simply fly with their magic artifacts. However, the spiritual energy in this Starless Lake was extremely thin, and there were few spirit creatures nearby. While flying with a sword didn't pose much pressure on Foundation Establishment cultivators for short periods, they had been searching here for two or three years, some even longer. Cultivating normally still required spirit stones, and if they kept flying by sword, the consumption of spirit stones and magical energy would be unbearable even for a Foundation Establishment Ninth Layer cultivator. Moreover, finding the Starless Stone relied heavily on luck, and simply flying with a sword wouldn't guarantee success. That's why this group of people traveled together, taking turns rowing. With their Foundation Establishment strength, a light shake of the oar could propel them a considerable distance.Although taking turns rowing was much slower than flying with a sword, it significantly reduced their consumption, making it a necessary compromise.

Lu Xiaotian didn't mind the consumption, but he valued these people's knowledge of Jiuxing Lake far exceeding his own. Therefore, he wasn't in a hurry to go it alone.

“Could this be the legendary heavy water, with star stones emerging” Zhao Yuanjun’s expression suddenly became excited as he saw that the water beneath the boat was a noticeably deeper blue than in other parts of the lake.
“Heavy water appears, star stone emerges Where did this saying come from” Everyone present, including Lu Xia Tian, wore expressions of surprise. However, the astonishment of Mu Chai woman and others was that they were completely unfamiliar with the phrase. As for Lu Xia Tian, his surprise stemmed from the fact that Zhao Yuan Jun, whose cultivation level was at the bottom among the foundation-building cultivators, actually knew quite a bit. Coupled with the fact that he had learned the art of concealing one's breath from Zhao Yuan Jun, Lu Xia Tian felt a stir in his heart. Perhaps this old man wasn't as simple as he appeared on the surface.
