Chapter 3912: A Tranquil Lake 🌊

Published: January 4, 2025

“The mixed light tribe is doomed this time; several experts have been completely wiped out.” A venerable from a distance, witnessing the scene, couldn't help but turn pale and said, “I heard they found a stone book emitting scriptures inside that tree hollow. They wanted to use their entire clan’s power to barge in and seize the stone book, but unexpectedly, they were completely annihilated.”

“What kind of terrifying thing is inside that even the earth venerables couldn’t fight back?” Another venerable shivered, keeping a distance from the tree hollow.

“That thing carries a strong chaos aura, and has a strange power akin to the origin of the universe. It seems that all creatures here possess this aura,” Qin Chen was shocked, his brow furrowing.

In that situation just now, if he had intruded, he would also be in grave danger, uncertain if he could escape alive.

However, what puzzled Qin Chen the most was that everything here, like the black shadow, devouring void insects, and the black tentacles, all carried a strong chaos aura of the universe’s origin—an aura that could not be sensed anywhere else.

Qin Chen halted his desire to search for these treasures and continued deeper.

Suddenly.

Ahead, the dragon nest seemed to come to an end, revealing a lake before Qin Chen.

What lay before him was a large lake, its waters shimmering like jade, with gentle breezes that felt refreshing. By the lakeside, numerous veneration figures sat cross-legged, each using their law chains to probe into the lake as if they were fishing for something.

After seeing this scene, those unaware of the situation wouldn’t even know they were in the secret realm of the myriad divine treasury, deep within the dragon nest, thinking they were merely by the shore of a peaceful lake in the universe.

“How could there be a large lake here?”

Looking at the lake, Qin Chen was also taken aback; it was completely different from his imagination of the depths of the dragon nest.

The emerald waters rippled, sparkling in the light; to the uninformed, it would seem like a paradise, who would have thought this was deep within the dangerous dragon nest in many people's imaginations?

At least, in Qin Chen’s mind, the depth of the dragon nest should be a terrifying existence, like the sword tomb’s sword-burial abyss, completely dark and dreadful, never expecting it to be such a serene scene.

It was too surprising.

Swish! Qin Chen arrived at the lakeside.

There were already some veneration figures at the lakeside. Upon seeing Qin Chen arrive, their gazes became fixed.

Qin Chen had already proven his strength; ordinary tribes would likely not dare to engage such a powerful true dragon tribe expert.

“Hmm?

Something's not right!”

When Qin Chen reached the lakeside, he noticed something off about the lake. Its shimmering surface made him initially think it was some kind of special source water, but as he approached, he found the lake unfathomably deep, giving an incredibly profound feeling; when probing with his soul, his soul light was entirely absorbed.

This was actually a lake of condensed soul power.

Moreover, this soul power carried a strong chaos aura, even giving Qin Chen a feeling of the universe’s origin and the beginning of all things.

“Why do I feel the origin of the universe's birth from this lake? What exactly is this lake?” Qin Chen was shaken.

From the soul aura of this lake, Qin Chen felt the origin of the universe; his mind trembled, and the book of origin quickly appeared, making a rustling sound.

Qin Chen felt everything around him vanish, his eyes fixated solely on the lake. In the depths of his mind, the lake transformed into a special existence; to others, it was merely a lake, but to Qin Chen, it represented origin and the beginning… At this moment, Qin Chen was completely immersed, for in this lake, he saw something extraordinary, something he couldn't describe, but felt it contained the origin of the universe's creation, the rules governing the universe, and encompassed the origin, immortality, life and death… even all things and all living beings in the world.
