Chapter 837: Whirlpool at the Bottom of the Lake
The clan leaders of the nine clans weren’t the only cultivators present; there were many regular people around too.
When the news of the Black Emperor Key spread, the fact that Long Chen had beaten Wu Guangyu to become the champion of the Martial Youth Competition was not shocking anymore. They were more concerned about the location of the Black Emperor Key.
Theoretically, anyone could get the key. This was due to the situation at Tianyi Water City.
Long Chen was currently standing next to Tianyi Lake.
Tianyi Lake was at the center of the Water District. There was more water than land in the Water District, as there were lakes everywhere. Tianyi Lake was the largest of them. Long Chen could not even see the other side of the lake when he stood on the edge, which showed just how gigantic it was.
It was as large as the gigantic tree beneath Heavenly Wood City.
At the center of Tianyi Lake, there was a city built on top of the water. This was the legendary Tianyi Water City. From afar, it looked like a pure white fortress. The miraculousness of its architecture and its elegance put it on the same level as Heavenly Wood City.
The water within a five-hundred-meter radius of the city was extremely calm. However, it was completely different beyond that. The rest of the lake spun quickly around the city, forming a gigantic whirlpool. While Long Chen stood on the edge of Tianyi Lake, water splashed out constantly, making it feel like it was raining.
The copious amounts of spinning water resulted in a very strong current. Those who had not reached the Earthly Martial Realm could not even stand in the lake; even Long Chen would likely be greatly affected by it. Long Chen knew that it was not going to be easy for Wu Lian and the others to find the Black Emperor Key within the whirlpool.
