Chapter 609

"No, not exactly in there . If it wasn't by accident, no one would have thought to enter from that pa.s.sage . " Andrela smiled mysteriously and led the way into the cave . Garen hurriedly followed along .

Soon after he had advanced into the cave for some distance, he stopped . He no longer moved after standing beside a spring .

"It's here . I'll lead the way, you follow . "

Once he finished speaking, he jumped straight into the spring .

Water soon splashed around the spring with a width longer than a meter .

Garen was confused but he also jumped into the spring .

The moment he entered the spring, something soft and warm covered his whole body as though soaking in a hot spring .

Strangely, the temperature of the spring was not high, only about the temperature of the sea .

Bubbles floated up . Through the cloudy blue water, Garen saw that Andrela was waving a bright green glow stick at him at the bottom .

He hurriedly swam like a fish in order to keep up . After training for so long at the sea, water became a second nature to him . He swam at a moderate pace behind Andrela .

The two of them had already swum in the spring longer than ten minutes yet they were still heading further down . The surroundings of the spring were dark and it was still extending as though there was no bottom .

Finally, the tunnel in front of them made a horizontal turn and no longer went deeper .

After a while, another pa.s.sage that turned upwards appeared .

The whole spring was a U-shaped pa.s.sage, just like the shape of the island .

Following the pa.s.sage upwards, the two of them could not help but swim faster .

Huala!

Inside a small dark cavern, two heads emerged out of an oval spring at a corner .

With a loud splash, two dark figures leaped out of the water and landed firmly by the side of the spring .

Garen snapped his fingers and a freezing white mist circled around both their cloaks and soon dissipated .

All the moisture in their cloaks became ice and with a gentle shake, all the ice fell off on the ground .

The water on both of them had dried instantly .

"This is already out of the scope of Secret Techniques . " Andrela sighed .

Garen smiled without replying and only silently scanned the cavern .

"This is the place where the Mother Stream ran through, the only point where Mother Stream can be seen" Andrela sighed, "You definitely cannot imagine what Mother Stream looks like . "

"In this cavern?" Garen was piqued by curiosity . What did the legendary Mother Stream look like in reality? He could not guess .

"Follow me . "

Andrela walked ahead, away from the spring towards one of the cavern's stone wall .

Garen only noticed when he came near, the stone wall was, in fact, a hole that got blocked . The stone piece that blocked the hole was too similar to the surrounding with no apparent flaws . If no one checked properly, there was no way to know that there was a hole here .

He also noticed that on the ground at the left side of the stone piece laid a pile of white bones . It did not seem to belong to humans . It was more like lizards' bones put together but there was no rotten smell that drifted out .

"I lived here for five years . Previously, creatures similar to lizards lived in the spring but it was all eaten by me . " Andrela shrugged and placed all ten of his fingers on the stone piece and pulled outwards .

With the rumbling sound of rolling stone, the stone piece moved out of the way and a hole with the height of a person was immediately revealed .

Andrela did not go in . He only stood by the entrance quietly peering inside, his eyes showing a trace of obsession .

A green light from inside the hole was also reflected on it .

Garen could not help but hold his breath, similarly stunned by the amazing scene inside the hole .

A large cavern was connected to this hole on the other side .

Inside was a stream running from left to right with no sound whatsoever . No matter it was the sound of water, the flow of air or creatures swimming inside it, there was none .

It was a stream dozens of meters wide .

It was no normal stream water but some sort of glowing green fluid . It gushed out from a gray vortex on the left and rushed into a gray vortex on the right .

The light from the stream glowed, dyeing both of them green .

The hole they were at was located high up in the large cavern, just like one of the many holes of a beehive .

"This is the Mother Stream…" Andrela muttered .

"How are you so sure?" Garen finally snapped out of it . He could see such a spectacle in the Secret Technique World, but even if he had been through all sorts of thing, he still felt that it was incredible .

"It's that I'm sure…once you get closer you will understand . " Andrela smiled bitterly .

Slightly puzzled, Garen went inside the cavern .

Only a step, a gentle and warm aura covered him and expelled gently .

"This is …aura!!??" He looked at Andrela, startled .

"That's right . " Andrela nodded . "Aura is a product of Spirit . In the Ancient Ender civilization, it was also called Power of Life . In the legend, Mother Stream flows out from an unknown void into another unknown void . It contains infinite Power of Life . This is why even if this stream is not the Mother Stream, it is at least a branch of it . There is no other explanation which I could find from the records . "

Garen suddenly thought of something and adjusted his vision .

Closing his eyes and opening it once again, the glowing green stream in front of him disappear . There was nothing in this large cavern except a vague flow of gentle air . He totally hid all the aura in his body, using the eyes of ordinary people to observe .

Sure enough, the whole Mother Stream was unable to be seen . The location where the Mother Stream situated was originally a dried up river with nothing inside it and both sides were blocked .

"I see, the Mother Stream in the legend can only be seen by the chosen ones . No wonder it was explained like that . " Garen nodded . Releasing his aura, the green light filled his vision again .

"You also discovered it . " Andrela nodded . "I have examined it from various perspectives and basically confirmed that this is the Mother Stream . "

Garen did not reply and went silent .

"What are you planning to do?"

Andrela smiled bitterly .

"I don't have any plans . I can't even get near it, what else can I plan?"

"You lived here for five years, there should at least be some results . "

"This is natural . " Andrela nodded, "I looked up all the information on Mother Stream . Whether it be myth legends or folk tales, none was spared . Pieced together, I had a thought . "

He leaned against the wall and explained while gazing at the Mother Stream .

"Mother Stream, also known as Stream of Life was said to contain a secret . Rumors had it that ancient warlocks nearing their death walked into the embrace of Mother Stream . There must be some meaning to it . "

He took out a silver ring carved with a double-headed bird .

"I found out that all the warlocks who entered the Mother Stream would wear an accessory made of silver stone . I don't know the reason . "

"This is a ring made of the silver stone?" Garen also took out the double-headed ring he got from Divine Master .

"Yes . I don't know who got their hands on this material and made double-headed rings out of it . These might be the last two accessories made from silver stone in this world . " Andrela regretfully said .

"I guess that when the warlocks lost all hope, they gambled everything they have to have the one last chance . "

"What chance?"

"The chance to reach a higher level . "

Andrela said in low voice .

"The legend of warlocks ended with a legendary expedition . For unknown reasons, they went to war with powerful invaders from another world . Finally, both sides suffered great losses . Various G.o.ds fell . I found out that whenever great warlocks suffered grievous injuries, someone would put them into the Mother Stream to have their injuries healed . Then, they would enter into battles again . "

He paused for a while .

"Later, the enemies found out about it . They used some sort of means to stop the healing abilities of the Mother Stream . Maybe this is the original way the Mother Stream should be . It was a Pyrrhic victory . Not long after, both sides disappear from history . "

"Your speculations are very detailed but this is all built on the fact that all the myth and legends are true . " Garen nodded .

"I tried to eliminate any interference to the best extent, sorting out all the data and compiling them . This final result should not have too many distortions . " Andrela shook his head .

"Mother Stream…" Garen looked at the running stream emitting green light, feeling out of this world . This feeling of standing before and looking at something that should only exist in legends, normal people would not be able to imagine it .

Imagine looking at the Egyptian pyramids from Earth . That kind of heavy feeling from looking at history enshrouds your mind and leave nothing else in your head .

"There must be a great secret hidden inside there . The warlocks have lifespans approaching thousand years and G.o.dlike powers . What is there on the level above them? There can only be immortality!" Andrela said seriously, then a bitter smile surfaced . "But I can't even get close to it . "

He turned to look at Garen .

"What I can't do, maybe you can . Your strength already reached a level out of my imagination . " His eyes contain hope and antic.i.p.ation .

Garen looked at Mother Stream, uncertainty in his eyes .

Suddenly, he took a large step .

Pa!

His boots stepped firmly on the ground inside the cavern . A huge force slammed on his body intending to expel him .

This force was vast as the sea . Even the strength of Garen's Living Secret Technique barely held on .

His body was covered in freezing white mist and was about to retaliate .

Suddenly, his view pa.s.sed through the Attribute Pane and his body stopped .

In the Attribute Pane, he saw an unexpected change .
