Chapter 21: Devil Lake Devil Shadow

  Under the night sky, the gentle breeze blows softly.

  Ye Han sat quietly, amidst the pile of gravel in the mountain valley, three small blue crystals dissolving rapidly into three wisps of green smoke that were absorbed through his nose and mouth.

  The blue smoke entered Ye Han's body, quickly merging into the heart area, and was merged by the faint air machine that had been lurking there. A moment later, the air machine that grew from the hair to the thickness of a toothpick emitted a strong life fluctuation, like a small blue dragon, and continued to hibernate in his heart area...

  Ye Han let out a sigh and slowly opened his eyes. Suddenly, the entire world seemed to be different in his eyes, revealing a more vibrant side. His facial skin was even smoother, his hair was jet black, and his teeth were like white jade, arranged neatly and clearly. Both of them emitted a faint aura of life.

  This is the benefit brought by the Blue Life Crystal, although it did not greatly enhance his strength. However, it increased his vitality and recovery ability, expanding Ye Han's overall life potential, which is the most important thing.

  According to the concept of internal martial arts, the external world is the macrocosm, and the human body is the microcosm. They do not interfere with each other and form their own system. The heart, liver, spleen, stomach, and kidneys perform their respective functions, maintaining the overall operation. Only when the life force is strong can it drive the development of the physical limit to the extreme. This is what is meant by the harmony between heaven and man, and the unity of all things. For thousands of years, the internal martial arts cultivation has reached the realm of Zhang Sanfeng and Yang Luchan, but it is difficult to make further progress. The road ahead has been cut off, and there is no way to advance because of the limitations of the human body and the era.

  It is said that 'a golden elixir enters the abdomen, and one lies on a nine-layered lotus platform in heaven', with life force flourishing to such an extent, potential has already become unlike that of humans. Speed surpasses bullets, taking the enemy general's head in a formation of ten thousand soldiers, able to predict the arrival of danger beforehand, the aura on one's body can intimidate ferocious beasts... because wild animals' senses are even more acute, able to perceive the terrifying life force on one's body. If someone from past lives truly reached that step, it would no longer be just internal martial arts that decide, definitely having great fate and great virtue rewarded.

  And now, these blue life crystals are Ye Han's great opportunity, the catalyst for further development of his internal potential as a practitioner of Internal Family Fist!

  Slowly exhaling a breath of air, Ye Han fell silent for a moment, then lifted his head and gazed up at the sky.

  Another round moon hangs in the sky, sprinkling its bright and clean moonlight.

  "Another year of full moon night. Alas, I have been in the Luojia mountain range for so long now?!"

  In the ancient times of past lives, those mountain-dwelling Qi cultivators who ate wind and drank dew were actually all masters of internal school fist methods. Of course, it wasn't just Xingyiquan, but also Taiji, Bagua and other even more ancient fist techniques.

  These people often disregard fame and fortune, see through the mundane world, many are pioneers in developing the most ancient human potential, some have gone very far. Just like Ye Han now, can even reach the limit of human body, speed like lightning, running wildly in the mountains like a monkey, seen by woodcutters below the mountain, still thinking it's a god-like being, that's why there are so many legends about White Ape and Pure Yang.

  It's just as they say, "A hundred days in the mountains is a thousand years in the world." For people like them, their vitality is much stronger than ordinary people, with a long lifespan and simple thoughts. In the deep mountains and old forests, it's hard to feel the changes of the outside world.

  More in line with Ye Han's current feelings, but to hear the Tao in the morning and die in the evening is the pursuit of a lifetime for people like them.

  Ye Han's entire mind was emptied and fell into a very quiet and serene state.

  It's a bit like the "Tao" of ancient Taoism and the "Zen" of Buddhism. Perhaps when one reaches this level of spiritual realm, everything becomes interconnected.

  Ye Hansheng was deeply immersed in this state and couldn't extricate himself! His entire being was like a cold, lifeless stone, devoid of any movement or sound. If someone were to approach him at this time, even if their strength far surpassed his own, they would be unable to sense his presence.

  Ye Han was like a part of the mountain itself, a protruding rock, devoid of any signs of life.

  In the fleeting moments of time...

  It wasn't until midnight that a light rain began to fall, followed by a loud clap of thunder.

  Rumble.

  It's like an earthquake, something massive is running.

  "What happened?"

  Ye Han suddenly opened his eyes, and he saw that at the foot of the mountain, large batches of wild beasts were frantically escaping. Whether it was aurochs, wild elephants, or lynxes and hyenas, even including high-level magical beasts like Dark Magic Tigers and Lightning Leopards, they all desperately ran forward.

  It was as if they had been cursed, something terrifying to the extreme was chasing them, and they were fleeing forward in droves.

  However, they fled to the boundless Dead Lake in front of them. Ahead was a dead end, but this group of wild beasts charged forward like crazy, non-stop.

  Ye Han was left staring in shock and dismay, a chill running through his heart.

  What kind of power drives these wild beasts to rush suicidally into the lake?

  He stood frozen, staring at the scene before him. Batch after batch of wild beasts charged into the lake, only to disappear from view, and then even more ferocious creatures took their place, charging once again into the lake, completing a terrifying yet tragic journey of self-destruction.

  In just a moment, tens of thousands of demonic beasts have fallen into the bottomless Lake of the Dead, but not even a ripple can be seen. Yet more and more ferocious beasts are still rushing towards this place like madmen...

  Ye Han's eyes were dry and his tongue was parched, almost to the point of incredulity. He finally understood why everyone in the Luojia Mountains would change color when mentioning the Undying Lake!

  What is this undead lake, it's simply a demonic lake that swallows endless life. Is there another abyss of death connected beneath this unfathomable deep lake?

  For thousands of years, how many skeletons have accumulated at the bottom of this deep lake?

  As soon as he thought of this, Ye Han felt a chill in his heart.

  It wasn't until half past nine that the suicidal behavior of the herd jumping into the lake gradually stopped.

  The remaining beasts and monsters, as if they had received a great shock, fled in panic towards the deeper parts of the forest.

  The entire Dead Lake surroundings, once again restored to a dead silence. The calm lake water, not even a ripple was stirred up, it's hard to imagine that just a moment ago, this seemingly ordinary lake water had swallowed thousands of lives!

  Rumble!

  The sky was filled with continuous thunder, and in the blink of an eye, it became a flash of lightning and thunder. The white lightning flashed wildly across the sky. Soon, bean-sized raindrops came pouring down pattering loudly.

  Affected by the scene just now, Ye Han's mood couldn't calm down for a long time, and he let the rapid raindrops hit his body, wetting his hair and clothes.

  "Rumble!"

  Another flash of white lightning illuminated the surroundings, momentarily dispelling the darkness, but it quickly darkened again, highlighting Ye Han's eye corners...

  He glanced up without realizing it, then withdrew his gaze. But immediately afterwards, Ye Han suddenly opened his eyes wide, and his pupils contracted abruptly.

  "What's wrong? What is it?"

  His gaze seemed to have stopped, staring incredulously at the sky where thunder and lightning were raging. There, the rain was pouring down like a deluge, amidst the rumbling sounds. Countless massive thunderbolts were rampaging wildly like dragons, with fierce winds and heavy rains, contrasting with the surrounding darkness that seemed like daylight...

  Ye Han saw that in the sky above this undead lake, amidst the raging thunder and lightning, there seemed to be a figure clad in black robes lurking in the shadows...

  "How is it possible?"

  At this moment, Ye Han was startled and almost jumped up.

  How could there be life in a thunderstorm? And what's more, a human being? It is really an unimaginable and unbelievable thing.

  According to the calculations of ancient science, on rainy days, the power of lightning is extremely terrifying. A rampaging flash of lightning's speed and energy explosion can instantly vaporize a person, its power will not be less than a small nuclear bomb explosion.

  How could anyone exist in such a terrible and extreme environment? This has really overturned Ye Han's past imagination, it's really unthinkable...
