Reborn as the Strongest Immortal Cultivator in Modern Times

The next day, Ye Yu went out to the market to buy camping equipment and returned to the guesthouse with a large bag on her back.

Seeing that Ye Yu had prepared everything so quickly, Zhu Deng asked in surprise, "Are you getting ready to leave already?"

"Yes, I'll set off after lunch."

Zhu Deng instructed, "You should camp on the route I took you yesterday. Other places are generally fenced off; the government is very strict about managing forests. Also, don't cross the border; try to avoid those areas. There are many trees and fog on the mountain, and many wild animals roam there, so be extra careful when you go."

Although he had heard that Ye Yu was very skilled, he had never seen it with his own eyes, so he gave Ye Yu a few more instructions.

Ye Yu thanked the rugged-looking but sensitive Northeastern man, saying, "I'll remember Brother Zhu's reminders."

"No need to thank me. It's nothing. Just be careful."

Zhu Deng waved his hand and went to greet the guests.

After having lunch and saying goodbye to Zhou Xueyang, Ye Yu set off for Changbai Mountain.

She went to a secluded spot to put her things away, and tried to avoid cameras as she walked toward the path that Zhu Deng had discovered.

Four hours later, it had gotten dark, and a thick fog began to rise in the mountains.

Ye Yufei climbed onto a large tree and watched as the景区 staff began clearing out the tourists.

The fog grew thicker, visibility was extremely low, and the wind was howling.

After the tourists and staff had all left, Ye Yu used his divine sense to confirm that no one else was nearby. He then took out a Wind Travel Talisman and jumped into the pool in a flash.

She was very fast. Even if there were cameras, everyone would think that something had been blown into the pool. No one would have imagined that someone would dare to jump into the icy and mysterious Heavenly Pool.

As soon as Ye Yu entered the water, she immediately used her spiritual power to envelop her entire body, forming a blue protective shield that isolated the pool water.

She had heard before that there was a water monster in the area, and some people even claimed to have seen it, making the mysterious rumors seem more real.

The area where Tianchi is located is rich in spiritual energy, and the shape and shape of the mountains are similar to those of a dragon. It is not surprising that such a place would give birth to some creatures.

Ye Yu spread her divine sense to the maximum and tried to conceal her aura as much as possible; she still wanted to be careful.

When we first descended to 100 meters, we could still see some algae, but as we went down, it was pitch black and we couldn't see anything.

Ye Yu could only rely on her divine sense to descend to about 400 meters without encountering anything. Moreover, she had reached the deepest point and could not descend any further.

She was puzzled. Had she guessed wrong? The spirit stone wasn't found in this Heavenly Pool? Instead, it was in another mysterious cave that no one knew about?

She was momentarily annoyed, wishing she had asked the priest to think more carefully about where it was probably found.

Ye Yu was somewhat unwilling. She used her divine sense to carefully scan the bottom of the pool and suddenly discovered a crevice about ten feet long behind a boulder on the far left, from which water was constantly flowing out.

Her face lit up with joy, and she swam in quickly.

As soon as Ye Yu entered the crevice, she felt that the water temperature here was higher than outside.

After diving about a thousand meters, Ye Yu felt the water temperature getting higher and higher, so she had to strengthen her spiritual energy shield.

Five hundred meters down, Ye Yu's face began to turn pale. Her injuries had not fully healed, and her spiritual power could not last much longer.

Ye Yu ate a few more pills to speed up her pace, hoping to find the exit as soon as possible.

She continued downhill until she finally saw light about two or three hundred meters ahead.

Ye Yu swam towards the light with all her might. As soon as she surfaced, what she saw was spectacular.

This is a cave with a very large space. The walls are inlaid with many fluorites that emit green light, and there are also spirit stones that emit soft white light among them. That is why the light here can be seen when you are underwater.

She was in a steaming hot river, the scalding water flowing through the cave, its destination unknown.

Ye Yu swam to the shore, walked to the wall of the cave, pried off a spirit stone that emitted a soft white light, closed her eyes, and absorbed the spirit stone completely.

"It really is a spirit stone!"

Looking at the spirit stones scattered on the cave walls, Ye Yu was overjoyed. Although these were only low-grade spirit stones, they were more than enough for her at the moment.

Ye Yu immediately pried off several more pieces, sat cross-legged on the spot, and began to absorb and cultivate.

Twenty minutes later, her pale complexion had completely recovered, and her spiritual energy, including the injuries she had sustained, had been fully restored.

Ye Yu stood up and began to examine the cave.

The cave was quite long, and at the very front was a dark entrance, the destination of which was unknown.

Just as she was about to walk forward, she heard a noise coming from the river she had just come up from.

Turning around, I saw many bubbles rising on the surface of the river, as if something was about to emerge from it.

Ye Yu was very vigilant. She took out her bone sword and spread her divine sense across the river to try and find out what was going on.

But just as she was about to probe the riverbed with her divine sense, she saw several fiery red, lizard-like creatures leap out of the river and pounce on Ye Yu.

Ye Yu's expression hardened, and he swung his bone sword forward, the sword energy striking the lizards and sending them flying into the wall.

Then, one after another, many lizards jumped out of the river, and Ye Yu had no choice but to swing his sword to defend himself.

More and more lizards came ashore, and Ye Yu was overwhelmed.

She threw many fireballs at them, but strangely, when the fireballs exploded, the lizards were neither killed by the explosions nor burned to death.

Ye Yu frowned; these lizards didn't seem to be afraid of fire or high temperatures.

Thinking of this, she used the Ice Seal spell, casting several incantations to freeze the lizards that were rushing towards her into ice blocks. Then she shot bone needles at them, and the ice blocks and the lizards' bodies shattered directly.

"So they're not afraid of fire, but of ice. Then why did they jump out of the river? Is it because they can only survive in the high temperatures of the water?"

Ye Yu didn't have time to think about these issues for the moment. Knowing that the Ice Seal spell was effective, she found it much easier to deal with the lizards.

Ye Yu's bone sword and ancient needles flew together, shattering the frozen lizards one by one.

But these things seemed endless, and Ye Yu's spiritual energy was being depleted quickly. She had no choice but to absorb spiritual energy while fighting them.

Finally, Ye Yu simply absorbed the spirit stones with his left hand and built an ice wall in the narrowest part of the cave with his right hand, directly blocking the lizards outside. He thought to himself, these must be the water monsters that people talk about.

As for getting out later, she'll figure that out later. At worst, she can improve her cultivation level and then try to break out.
