A whistling sound rang out from all directions. Boundless Heaven and Earth Yuan Qi surged in from all directions like rivers flowing into the sea, alarming all the swordsmen in the Rising Dragon League.
"The Longyuan Pond is about to open."
"This is the first time I've seen the Longyuan Pond open."
Many disciples of the True Dragon Dynasty were pleasantly surprised.
The opening of the Longyuan Pond was a grand occasion.
The dragons in the sky above the palaces of the True Dragon Dynasty let out dragon roars, shaking the sky and earth.
Boundless natural energies gathered from all directions, eventually converging into streams of dragon-shaped streams of energy above the Rising Dragon Platform. The streams of energy roared loudly as they dove down one after another, drilling into the ground beneath the Rising Dragon Platform.
The cracked ground of the Rising Dragon Stage stabilized.
As the ground of the Rising Dragon Arena cracked open, an incomparably dense aura gushed out.
Boundless natural yuan qi condensed into the shape of a dragon, penetrating into the cracked ground of the Rising Dragon Platform. Following that, a pool of water gradually rose. The blood-red pool was not very big, about ten meters by ten meters in size. The blood-red pool looked very viscous, like mercury.
When all the Yuan Qi of Heaven and Earth entered the pool, the water rippled endlessly. Layers upon layers of ripples spread out. Countless bubbles popped out and countless cyclones appeared. It looked like the blood-red pool was about to boil.
Vaguely, there seemed to be countless small dragons swimming in the blood-red pool.
"The three champions can enter the Longyuan Pond to cultivate." The True Dragon Emperor waved his hand and said.
Xiao Bieli, Long Yue, and Chu Mu moved. They came from three different directions and floated above the Longyuan Pond. Chu Mu immediately felt the majestic energy emitted by the Longyuan Pond. It contained a faint pressure, the pressure of a dragon.
"Not only is the Dragon Origin Pond's water rich and pure in strength, it can also raise cultivation. It also contains a special dragon's power that can refine the body, causing it to become even stronger." Chu Mu thought to himself as he descended.
With a splash, Chu Mu, Xiao Bieli, and Long Yue fell into the blood-red viscous liquid of the Longyuan Pond.
This was in front of everyone. However, none of them cared. If others had such an opportunity, they wouldn't care either. In fact, they would look forward to it.
After all, it wasn't something shameful. On the contrary, it was the honor of being the champion.
Once he entered the Longyuan pool, his body was immediately enveloped by the blood red pool water. Pure and extremely rich Yuan Power frantically gushed into his body from all directions.
Huge Yuan Qi filled their meridians. Chu Mu quickly channeled the Divine Wilderness Sword Art and began to cultivate.
The Divine Wilderness Sword Essence left his Dantian and entered his meridians. It swept away the majestic Yuan Qi that was constantly flowing into his body and quickly transformed it into Divine Wilderness Sword Essence. It caused the amount of Divine Wilderness Sword Essence to continuously increase.
Ever since his Dantian had undergone a mutation, Chu Mu had not cultivated the Divine Wilderness Sword Essence to the peak of the early Second Sky of Creation Realm. This was because his Dantian had expanded and its capacity had increased by ten times. The quality had also increased by ten times. In addition, the energy he absorbed wasn't enough and the speed of transformation wasn't fast enough. It wasn't easy to fill it up.
But now, it was completely different. He didn't need to take the initiative to absorb it. The rich and pure energy continuously flowed into his body from all parts of his body and filled his meridians. It caused Chu Mu's meridians to feel bloated. Under the Divine Wilderness Sword Essence's transportation, the rich and pure energy seemed to be half-willingly refined. Unknowingly, it increased Chu Mu's refining speed.
Every time the Divine Wilderness Sword Essence completed a full cycle and returned to his Dantian, the Divine Wilderness Sword Essence Sea in his Dantian would expand. The growth was very obvious. At this rate, Chu Mu felt that he would soon be able to cultivate to the peak of the early Second Sky of Creation Realm. Then, he would successfully break through to the intermediate Second Sky of Creation Realm. Before that, he would need to spend a long time.
As the rich and pure Yuan Power flowed into his body, Chu Mu also felt a strange energy faintly entering his body. But this energy was very tenacious and condensed. It was not affected by the Yuan Power at all. Instead, it flowed in his body by itself. Everywhere it passed, Chu Mu only felt a twitching sensation. It was both numb and painful. It was very strange.
"This is the power of the dragon?" Chu Mu could not help but think to himself. He could feel that wherever the fine and condensed energy passed, his body would be affected and strengthened.
With a thought, Chu Mu thought of the Heavenly Desolate Sword Body cultivation technique. He immediately split his attention into two. He cultivated the Divine Wilderness Sword Art while activating the Heavenly Desolate Sword Body.
As expected, once the Heavenly Desolate Sword Body was activated, the speed of absorption of the power of the dragon clearly increased. The numb and painful feeling all over his body also became more intense, but it was still within a tolerable range.
The three of them were distributed in three different parts of the Long Yuan Pond, not interfering with each other. The blood-red viscous water of the Long Yuan Pond was decreasing at a speed that could not be seen with the naked eye.
Watching others cultivate, especially when only their heads were exposed outside the blood-red water, was boring and not exciting at all. But those who knew about the Long Yuan Pond began to discuss.
"I remember that the highest record of people who entered the Long Yuan Pond to cultivate was 16 hours. The second place was 14 hours, and the third place was 14 hours. So far, in thousands of years, no one has been able to exceed 16 hours," a disciple of the Real Dragon Dynasty proudly boasted.
Immediately, many people cast their gazes over.
"Do you know, besides the majestic and pure Yuan Power and the power of the dragon, what other characteristics does the Long Yuan Pond have?" The disciple of the Real Dragon Dynasty was even more proud when he saw that he was being noticed.
"What characteristics?" Immediately, someone followed his words and asked.
"Haha, you've asked the right person." The disciple became even more proud, his nostrils almost pointing to the sky. "The water of the Long Yuan Pond is actually formed by Yuan Power and the power of the dragon. It's so rich and pure that it doesn't need to be actively absorbed. The Yuan Power and the power of the dragon will automatically enter the body to be absorbed and refined. But the longer it takes, the greater the burden on the body. It's simply impossible to bear. Naturally, one has to leave the Long Yuan Pond to end the cultivation, or one's body will collapse."
Everyone understood this principle. It might be easy at the beginning, but as time passed, the burden would become greater and greater. In the end, it would become a battle of willpower. It would only end when one couldn't bear it anymore.
"In addition, the Long Yuan Pond has another characteristic," the disciple of the Real Dragon Dynasty suddenly said mysteriously. "That is … high temperature."
"The temperature of the Long Yuan Pond will continue to rise, increasing the burden on the body. If one can't bear it, one has to leave. Otherwise, one will be burned to ashes by the increasingly high temperature."
Gurgling sounds could be heard once again. Bubbles popped out and burst, and steam surged up.
Chu Mu and the other two could already feel that the temperature of the Long Yuan Pond was constantly rising. Although the current temperature was still within the tolerable range, and would remain so for a period of time, but as time passed, it would definitely not be able to bear it.
Dispelling distracting thoughts and dividing his mind into two, cultivating the Divine Wilderness Sword Art and the Heavenly Wilderness Sword Physique at the same time. This was an extremely rare opportunity.
No one would complain about having a strong cultivation base, and no one would complain about having a stronger body.
In the blink of an eye, two hours had passed …
The Divine Wilderness Sword Essence in Chu Mu's dantian finally broke through the shackles, reaching the middle stage of the Second Heaven of Creation realm.
Now, the amount of Sword Essence he had was several times more than before.
But this was not the end, but the beginning. He could still continue to cultivate.
Four hours had passed … Three hours had passed …
The Divine Wilderness Sword Essence in his dantian underwent another change, reaching the peak of the middle stage of the Second Heaven of Creation realm. Then, it continued to absorb energy and successfully broke through, reaching the late stage of the Second Heaven of Creation realm.
After six hours, the temperature of the Long Yuan Pond had reached a high level. It began to make Chu Mu and the other two feel scorching heat, from the outside to the inside, and then from the inside to the outside.
Chu Mu, Xiao Bieli, and Long Yue closed their eyes tightly, completely forgetting everything in the outside world. They were completely immersed in their own cultivation, forgetting everything else.
The Sword Essence constantly rising at a speed that they could feel was undoubtedly a joyous thing, whether it was Chu Mu, Long Yue, or Xiao Bieli.
Long Yue was a Six Star Sword Of Gojoseon, and her cultivation was at the peak of the Sixth Heaven of Creation realm. Although she was at the peak, it was not easy to break through to the Seventh Heaven of Creation realm. On the contrary, it was very difficult. Since ancient times, many Six Star Sword Of Gojoseon had used more than ten years to successfully break through.
It could not be helped. The energy they needed was just too much.
As for an Eight Star Sword Of Gojoseon, the amount of Sword Essence required was more than a hundred times that of a Six Star Sword Of Gojoseon.
Long Yue's goal was to borrow the power of the Long Yuan Pond to successfully break through to the Seventh Heaven of Creation realm, stepping into the realm of a High Sword Of Gojoseon. Xiao Bieli's goal was also to borrow the power of the Long Yuan Pond to break through to become a Nine Star Sword Of Gojoseon.
As their cultivation rose, their bodies would not fall behind. Both of them cultivated body refinement techniques, and they were able to multitask. Therefore, they circulated their cultivation techniques and body refinement techniques at the same time, cultivating Sword Essence and body refinement techniques at the same time. They were able to keep pace with each other.
In the fourth hour, Chu Mu began to feel a swelling pain in his meridians. His body was constantly being washed by the power of the dragon, and it was painful. It was not pleasant. Long Yue and Xiao Bieli felt the same. However, in terms of the strength of their bodies, they were above Chu Mu. Their endurance was naturally stronger than Chu Mu's.
As the temperature continued to rise, the color of the three people's skin changed from a normal color to red. They looked like cooked prawns, emitting hot steam. It made the onlookers wonder if they were cooked and ready to eat.
After three hours of continuous absorption, the water level of the Long Yuan Pond had dropped significantly. Originally, it covered their necks, but now, their necks were exposed, and they were completely red …
