C31 (1/2)
As soon as he entered the Dragonize Pool, Long Chen felt as if countless strands of energy were trying to tear him apart, and an unknown object was crazily rushing into his meridians. The pain made Long Chen let out a low roar, and his eyes instantly became bloodshot; his veins bulged, and his body visibly thickened.
The surrounding people all retreated. Huang Nianwan, who had originally submerged in the Dragon Transformation Pool, now stared at Long Chen without a single ripple on her clean face.
Long Chen shut his eyes tightly. Countless green dots of light gathered in his body and surged back and forth in his meridians. Some of them had already been destroyed.
Long Chen let out a low roar, and his robe exploded. The ancient book entered Long Chen's skin in a flash, and as it squirmed, an image of a book appeared on the inside of Long Chen's left arm. A dim light flashed on Long Chen's right arm, and a hazy purple halo appeared around Long Chen's body. The green dots of light in the Dragonize Pool all dodged the halo, quietly floating around Long Chen.
When she saw the purple light, she narrowed her eyes and stared at Long Chen, as if she wanted to see through him.
The green dots of light in his body became extremely docile after the appearance of the purple halo, no longer emitting any of the violent aura from before. He carefully circulated through Long Chen's meridians. He was afraid that he would anger that purple halo. The tearing pain had dissipated by quite a bit. However, his body was still as sturdy as before.
”Tsk tsk, it's just as I expected. That shouldn't be the case.” Sharp Scale's voice came into his mind.
”What?”
”Your physique is indeed not ordinary. I have almost caught up with the divine beasts, but I have not even seen this physique of old man. Tsk! Tsk! I had waited in the Dragon Transformation Pool for such a long time and still didn't die. ”Tsk tsk.” The sound of scales flying unceasingly resounded in Long Chen's mind, making Long Chen's teeth itch.
No wonder he had to skip the first two ponds and directly come to the Dragon Transformation Stage. It was to verify his expectations.
”Hey hey hey, boy, don't think too much. I did this for a reason and for your own good. The first two ponds can't help you rebuild your meridians, and besides, with me here, what are you afraid of?” Sharp Scales quickly explained.
Long Chen was about to say something, but he quickly interrupted, ”Do you have any body tempering cultivation technique?”
”No!”
”I have it, it's a martial art of my own. I didn't know if you could cultivate it before, but now I'm sure your body can, but I have a request.”
”What request?”
”Don't show off in front of the Monster race, don't ask them why. There are too many reasons for this. Remember, if the one who is in trouble isn't you, then I will be the one.”
Seeing that the sharp scales were extremely serious, Long Chen agreed. Countless words poured into Long Chen's mind like a broken dam.
”Path of Desolation!” The three words rumbled in his mind with a majestic and incomparably domineering aura.
Just like before, a drastic change occurred. Everyone who was submerged within panicked as they swam upstream. Who would have thought that such a thing would happen after rushing in with so much difficulty? Everyone thought that something strange was going to happen to the Dragonize Pool again.
From the outside, it was impossible to see what was happening inside with the green pillar of light. The only thing they could see was that the sides of the pillar were constantly twisting and the hundreds of people inside rushed out.
The sect elders stationed in the sky all had different faces, not knowing what was going on. A Sect Leader couldn't stand it any longer, so he rushed down to grab a frightened sect disciple and ask him why. After hearing what was going on, the Sect Leader's expression immediately changed, and he threw the disciple in his hand away and flew into the air.
”What's wrong?”
”A surprising change has occurred again!” Hearing this, everyone's expression changed greatly.
After listening to the panic-stricken nephew in front of him finish narrating the changes in the Dragonize Pool, Xuan Ning frowned and pointed at a golden circle floating in front of him. The golden circle rotated and the green light pillar outside the Dragonize Pool displayed a scene; this was the Dragonize Pool that Long Chen was in, but it wasn't just Long Chen who was inside, there was also a handsome youth who was staring at Long Chen.
”Body tempering?” Xuan Ning muttered as he performed another incantation to look at the other Dragonize Pool. The other pools were unharmed. Xuan Ning heaved a sigh of relief.
The sound of chaos came from outside, Xuan Ning's figure blurred, and in the next moment she appeared in the sky outside, ”What are you panicking for? It's just that there are some fluctuations caused by body tempering. ”
”Body tempering?” It wasn't like anyone from the demon race had come here to train. Everyone was filled with doubts. Xuan Ning flipped his hand and a golden circle appeared in his palm. Inside the golden circle was the scene of Long Chen and Huang Nianwan. Upon seeing this, the Sect Leader and the elders let out a sigh of relief.
”No wonder the people of the Dragon Realm are stronger than the people outside. They are all in body tempering then.” Someone exclaimed. The others all chimed in.
”Ninth Prince, then the disciples that came out …” someone asked tentatively.
”Those who come out on their own can't be blamed.” After saying that, Xuan Ning returned to the golden tent. Everyone sighed, going in wasn't easy, what wasn't there originally was shocked by their own strength. There was still a portion of people who didn't know what was happening, and had completely followed along after them after seeing that everyone was running outside. It was just as King Ning Ning had said, coming out on their own, they couldn't blame anyone else.
There were some people who wanted to fight against injustice for their own disciples. However, when they thought about Long Chen's identity, they could only back down and blame their disciples for being impatient.
”There are demons in the primal chaos, and they refine the Dao and enter the body. The ninth level of the Dao is one pattern, and the ninth is to return to the first level is to ascend into the primordial chaos!” The opening words of the Rising Desolate Dao echoed in Long Haochen's mind. A scene flashed in front of his eyes. Long Chen only saw the back of a white-clothed man as lightning surged and snakes danced wildly in the sky.
The white clothed man rose from the ground and shot straight up into the sky. The lightning pool churned, and countless hundreds of feet wide arcs of lightning shot towards the white clothed man. His sleeves fluttered, and his hair crazily danced.
BOOM! BOOM! ”Boom!
The sound of the explosion was deafening. The man in white was covered in endless white light. His laughter was still as loud as before. His laughter was overbearing and filled with disdain.
Boom!” BOOM! BOOM!
In the end, the white light turned into a golden light, and the sky turned golden. The lightning pool was destroyed by a ray of golden light.
The lightning pool was destroyed, and a face appeared in the sky. It was a half smile, half cry, half half cry. The white clothed male had his hands behind his back, and endless golden light converged in front of his body, turning into nine rows of symbols.
