Mortals cultivate immortality, I have a Chaos Tower

As the group continued to go deeper, they came to the heart of the Water Dragon Secret Realm. This area exuded a strong aura of water elements, and the surrounding scenery was like a dream. What came into view was a magnificent crystal palace, towering into the clouds, and made entirely of crystal clear blue crystals. Each piece of crystal exuded a deep blue light, as if carrying ancient power. Thick water mist filled the air around the Crystal Palace, as if adding a bit of majesty and inviolability to this mysterious place.

Jiang Shuiling looked at the crystal palace with amazement in her eyes: "Is this palace really the habitat of the water dragon? Its aura is so powerful, as if the entire palace itself is an ancient magic weapon."

Zhong Ling'er nodded, her eyes full of curiosity: "The spiritual power fluctuations in these crystals are very strong. Perhaps before the water dragon fell, it injected some of its power into this palace."

"It seems that this is our destination." Lin Fan said in a deep voice, holding the Qiankun Axe tightly in his hand, with a firm look in his eyes. They have come all the way, experienced many dangers, and now finally stood in front of the entrance of the Water Dragon Heritage.

As they gradually approached the crystal palace, the calm water surface suddenly began to waver, and ripples spread out in circles, as if the water surface was expressing some kind of anger. Then, a strong breath of water element burst out from the crystal palace, and the surface of the entire lake suddenly surged. Amid the splashing water, a huge dragon-shaped phantom rose from the crystal palace.

It was a water dragon emitting blue light all over its body. It was huge and hovered above the palace. Its scales sparkled like blue crystals. The water dragon's eyes were as deep as the sea, majestic and cold. Its gaze swept over Lin Fan and the others, as if it wanted to see through their souls.

"Who are you? How dare you trespass into my Water Dragon Secret Realm!" The voice of the Water Dragon Soul reverberated throughout the space like thunder, with a terrifying force. The lake and the surrounding air trembled slightly under the vibration of this voice, as if even the heaven and earth were submitting to it.

Faced with such pressure, Jin Buke and Jiang Shuiling both took a step back involuntarily, their spiritual power almost instinctively wanting to resist this powerful force. But Lin Fan did not retreat at all. He took a step forward, looked up at the Water Dragon Soul, and said loudly: "We came here to seek opportunities and improve our strength. If you are the guardian of this place, please give us a test to let us prove our determination and strength."

The Water Dragon Soul's gaze condensed slightly, and a trace of scrutiny and majesty seemed to be revealed in its cold dragon eyes. It looked down at Lin Fan, remained silent for a moment, and then let out a long roar that shook the earth. The huge dragon tail swung towards Lin Fan fiercely, bringing up countless streams of water. The water mist condensed into a sharp blade like a knife, and attacked Lin Fan and others in an overwhelming manner.

Lin Fan did not flinch, the spiritual power in his body burst out, golden light emerged from his body, covering him completely. He held the Qiankun Axe tightly with both hands, golden light condensed on the axe blade, and swung it out suddenly. The axe blade was like a dazzling lightning, with the power to tear through space, facing the attack of the Water Dragon Soul.

"Boom!" The axe blade and the sharp blade of the Water Dragon Soul collided in the air, and a huge shock wave spread out, shaking the surface of the lake into huge waves. Jin Buke and Jiang Shuiling were both forced to retreat several steps by the shock wave, while Zhong Ling'er quickly formed a seal, and a silver barrier rose up to stabilize their bodies.

"What a strong force!" Jiang Shuiling gritted her teeth, her eyes full of shock. Every attack of the Water Dragon Soul seemed to contain endless water elemental power, so strong that it was difficult to resist.

Lin Fan was not shaken at all, his eyes were still firm, wielding the Qiankun Axe to meet the attacks of the Water Dragon Soul again and again. The dragon tail of the Water Dragon Soul attacked him like a violent storm, with the momentum of destroying the world, but Lin Fan blocked it again and again with his powerful body and spiritual power, without any intention of retreating.

"Brother Fan, be careful!" Jin Buke warned loudly. He saw a blue ball of light condensing in the mouth of the Water Dragon Soul, and it was obviously preparing for some powerful attack.

"Come on!" Lin Fan shouted, his spiritual power surging wildly, the golden light of the Qiankun Axe became more and more dazzling, and the power condensed on the axe blade almost made the surrounding air vibrate. He poured all his spiritual power into the Qiankun Axe, suddenly jumped up, and chopped the water dragon soul with the sharp axe blade.

"Boom!" The axe blade fiercely chopped on the back of the water dragon soul, and the blue dragon-shaped phantom instantly disintegrated, turning into countless blue light spots floating in the air. The blue light spots were like stars, covering the entire lake, like the stars in the night sky.

"You have passed my test." The voice of the Water Dragon Soul was no longer as majestic as before, but was a little softer. The blue light dots gradually gathered into a ball of light and flew towards Lin Fan.

"The inheritance of the Water Dragon is bestowed upon you. I hope you will live up to the opportunity of this place." The voice of the Water Dragon's soul echoed in everyone's ears, carrying a hint of caution and expectation.

Lin Fan took the blue ball of light and felt the surging water spiritual power contained in it. He closed his eyes and silently refined the power in the ball of light. The water spiritual power flowed along his meridians, as if nourishing his body, making him feel unprecedented fulfillment and strength.

Afterwards, Lin Fan distributed this power to Jin Buke, Jiang Shuiling, and Zhong Ling'er. However, among the three, Jiang Shuiling's reaction was the most intense. The moment the water spiritual power in her body merged with the power of the water dragon, it seemed to have reached some kind of extreme resonance. The spiritual power in her body surged wildly and directly broke through her original cultivation barrier.

"Ah!" Jiang Shuiling exclaimed, her whole body was wrapped in blue light, the power of water element continued to gather in her body, and her aura rose rapidly. Her original Jindan stage cultivation was actually blessed by the power of the water dragon, and she instantly broke through to the early stage of Yuanying!

Zhong Ling'er and Jin Buke were both stunned. They could both feel the rapid growth of power in Jiang Shuiling's body. The water spiritual power was so rich that it seemed as if she had turned into a surging lake or sea.

Zhong Linger sighed, "Sister Shui Ling is so compatible with your water attribute that she can actually break through to the early stage of the Nascent Soul directly. This is really unimaginable."

Jiang Shuiling stabilized the surging spiritual power in her body and slowly opened her eyes. Blue light flashed in her eyes, as if the shadow of a water dragon was swimming in them. She took a deep breath, calmed down, and said softly: "This water dragon power... seems to have brought my control over the water element to a whole new level. I never thought there would be such a big improvement."

Lin Fan nodded with satisfaction. Looking at Jiang Shuiling's progress, he felt sincerely happy: "It seems that this water dragon inheritance is a great opportunity for you. With such power, our future journey will be more certain."

Although Jin Buke did not break through to a new realm like Jiang Shuiling, he could also feel that the spiritual power in his body became more refined. He smiled and said, "Although I didn't break through directly like Sister Shuiling, my sword power has become more solid. With the blessing of this water dragon power, my sword will surely be more powerful and sharper when fighting against the enemy in the future." Jin Buke gripped the long sword in his hand, his eyes full of fighting spirit.

Zhong Ling'er also nodded slightly. Although she did not have a breakthrough like Jiang Shuiling, the spiritual power in her body became fuller and purer under the nourishment of the water dragon inheritance. She had a more thorough understanding of formations and water magic. "This time, the wisdom and spiritual power of the water dragon provided me with a lot of new inspiration for my formations. I think I can set up a stronger formation in future battles to protect everyone."

Lin Fan heard his teammates' feelings and nodded with satisfaction. Although the four of them had obtained different inheritances, all of them had gained their own improvements in this Water Dragon Secret Realm, which was undoubtedly a great help for the more severe battles that were about to be faced.

Jiang Shuiling closed her eyes and felt the surging Yuanying spiritual power in her body. She had never felt the response of the water element so clearly. The power of the water dragon not only improved her cultivation, but also brought her understanding and control of water magic to a new level. "I can feel that the inheritance of the water dragon is guiding me on how to control the deeper power of the water element."

Lin Fan smiled and encouraged, "Very good. Our strength has greatly increased now, and we can better cope with the challenges ahead. But don't forget that inheritance is only a means. The enemies we need to face in the future may be more powerful than this Water Dragon Soul."

He looked into the depths of the Crystal Palace, where a faint blue light was still flickering, as if calling them to explore the truth of this mysterious land more deeply. The inheritance of the water dragon was only the beginning, the power and knowledge in the secret realm had not yet been fully revealed, and their journey was far from over.

"Next, let's move on." Lin Fan said in a deep voice, with a hint of determination in his voice. He took a step and walked deeper into the Crystal Palace. Jin Buke, Jiang Shuiling and Zhong Ling'er followed closely behind. The four of them were full of confidence at this moment, and each of them had a stronger belief burning in their hearts.

As they approached the depths of the Crystal Palace, the surrounding scene became more and more mysterious. More runes began to appear on the blue crystal walls, and those runes flashed with a faint light, as if guiding them in the direction.

"These runes... seem to hide more information." Zhong Ling'er observed the runes carefully. She stretched out her fingers and injected spiritual power into them. A blue light appeared, and an ancient image appeared in front of everyone.

In the video, a huge water dragon is fighting with other powerful creatures. The lake is churning and the sky is thundering. It is obvious that this is the last battle of the water dragon. Although it is powerful, it is still defeated by several powerful enemies and dies here. The water dragon injects its spiritual power into the crystal palace, hoping that one day it will be obtained by someone who is destined to inherit its unfinished mission.

“So that’s how it is. The inheritance of the power of the water dragon is not just for strength, but also for its unfulfilled wishes.” Lin Fan murmured in a low voice, with a hint of respect in his eyes.

"It seems that what we have to do is not only to improve ourselves, but also to fulfill Shuilong's wish." Jiang Shuiling sighed. She looked at the last figure of Shuilong in the image and made a silent vow in her heart.

Jin Buk nodded, a sneer on his face: "Since we have obtained its power, its enemies will also be our enemies."
