Chapter 167 - Locking Chain (2/2)
The chain of the Dragon Lock Well was thick and huge. It was tied to a huge rock. Wei Huo walked over and saw the words ‘Dragon Lock Well’ written on the huge rock.
The other end of the chain extended to the bottom of the well. The well’s mouth emitted a blue light that illuminated the interior of the temple.
Wei Huo grabbed the chain and started pulling it out. The water in the well started shaking, and the blue light in the temple began flickering. Wei Huo kept pulling the chain, and the temple’s light started drifting. The atmosphere became weird.
Wei Huo continued pulling on the chain. Soon, water droplets fell from his hand. The water-drenched chain was as bone-chillingly cold as if it could freeze souls.
The chain creaked and the well water kept moving. Soon, a weird sound came from the bottom of the well. It was like the sound of a bull. It was so deep that it caused the ground to shake and the stones to beat.
Wei Huo pulled the chain out to see what was inside the well.
It was said that in the Dragon Lock Well was the source of the spring eye, an outlet into the sea. If pulled, it would trigger a super flood.
There were Dragon Lock Wells all over the country, but no one had ever heard of anyone pulling out all the chains in the Dragon Lock Wells. No expert had investigated this, and no one had used sound waves or placed two devices inside a well to check the situation.
Gulp! Gulp!
The sound of bubbles could be heard from the bottom of the well. The well seemed to be boiling, and air bubbles were popping up continuously. The well water was rising as Wei Huo piled the chain into a small mountain. He pulled the chain to the third floor of the temple and threw it out of the broken window before continuing.
The chain became heavier. If Wei Huo was not powerful, he would have had to find hundreds of people to pull the chain.
Splash!
The sound of chains rubbing against each other was heard. Well water gushed out of the well’s mouth and flowed through the crack outside of the steeple. Wei Huo was still pulling the chain out. He had to figure out what was in the Dragon Lock Well. Was there really a True Dragon?
Boom! A terrifying sound came from the well, as if something was rolling over.
Wei Huo felt the chain in his hand sink and almost pull him back.
He was confused. What was that chain?
The well water kept surging out and flowing out of the steeple and down the mountain. At that moment, the temperature outside the mountain was still high. It was at least 70 degrees. The moment the well water flowed out, the ground immediately produced sizzling sounds.
The well water began to nourish the charred ground. A few animals who had been lucky enough to survive in the cave plunged into the water and swam freely.
The amount of water flowing out of the Dragon Lock Well kept increasing. The first floor of the steeple was filled with water, and well water kept pouring out of the gaps between the doors and windows on the first floor. A few waterfalls were formed on the mountain, and water gushed out as if it wanted to drown the land.
Wei Huo was still pulling the chain. Meanwhile, the chain was getting heavier. At that moment, dark clouds started to gather in the sky. It seemed like it was going to rain!
Wei Huo was confused. Could the Dragon Lock Well really be a sea pass? Once the chain was pulled out, would it cause a flood?
The dry ground was gradually moistened. The heat wave was not over yet, but the temperature of the world was dropping. Cold well water kept surging out, lowering the surrounding temperature.
Wei Huo continued pulling the chain, but a sudden force was coming from it. If Wei Huo had not used his Domain Force, he would have been dragged into the Dragon Lock Well by this force. Wei Huo’s eyes narrowed as he pulled.
Soon, a clunking sound came from the Dragon Lock Well!
