In fact, it was not because of Sun Xiaojin's charm, but because of his great potential. All of the powerful parties in the South Shallow Sea Alliance had one requirement for their disciples, which was to avoid conflict with Sun Xiaojin as much as possible. If they could become normal friends with Sun Xiaojin, the power of the sect would focus on training them regardless of their potential. If they could become good friends with Sun Xiaojin, they would go from focusing on training to all-out training, regardless of the cost. Even if they were rotten wood, they would make sure that they could be gilded.
Of course, to be able to become friends with Sun Xiaojin, even if it was just a normal friend, their strength would not be too low. Otherwise, the two would not even have a place to interact, let alone become friends.
And the reason for all of this was Sun Xiaojin's potential.
Top rank potential was extremely rare even in the ancient era. According to the probability, out of ten top rank demonic beasts, at least five would be able to become Demonic Kings. In the Water Ape race, Sun Tai and Sun Xiaojin both had top rank potential. Without any surprises, one of them would become Demonic Kings, or even both of them would become Demonic Kings. If that were the case, the big parties in the South Shallow Sea Alliance would not pay so much attention to Sun Xiaojin. Inside Sun Xiaojin's body, besides the Water Ape bloodline, there was an even more noble bloodline called the Red Gold Ape bloodline. It was one of the top ancient demonic beast bloodlines.
Therefore, once Sun Xiaojin became a Demonic King, he would completely activate the Red Gold Evil Ape bloodline and become a powerful Demonic King.
A powerful Demonic King meant too much. After all, even King warriors had different levels of power. Top King warriors were way more powerful than normal King warriors in terms of power and deterrence. The best example would be the Dragon God Celestial Palace in the East Shallow Sea. With the power of the old Dragon King alone, the other four powerful parties did not even dare to think about it. All these years, they had been waiting for the old Dragon King's life to run out.
Sun Xiaojin did not even look at the crowd as he led Ye Chen toward the palace in the center of the light cover.
The palace was deep and spacious, and its color was ancient blue. In the center of the palace, there was an octagonal platform. On each of the eight sides of the platform, there was a stone tablet. The first stone tablet had the word "Sky", the second "Earth", the third "Mountain", followed by "Lake", "Thunder", "Wind", "Water", and "Fire".
The stone tablets were extremely ancient, emitting a vast aura. The eight stone tablets combined together seemed to be able to suppress everything.
Sun Xiaojin pointed at the circular hole in the middle of the platform and said, "This is the Undersea Spiral Tunnel. This is your first time here, so you should train on the seventh floor. If you go any further down, you will feel extremely uncomfortable, and it will be hard for you to calm down and train. As for training inside, you do not need to worry about people plotting against you. No one would dare to attack you inside the tunnel.
"Seventh floor? What are the requirements for the people who enter the tunnel? "
"Normally, the higher your power, the deeper you will be able to go. However, this is only for us beasts. You humans can use martial arts to increase your power, but under the same cultivation, you will not be able to go as deep as us beasts. The pressure of the tunnel will affect three aspects: the will power, the Zhen yuan, and the body. Your will power is very powerful, and your Zhen yuan is also very pure. However, the total amount is too little, which will cause your body to be under even more pressure. Once your body cannot handle it anymore, you will not be able to go any further, and you will have to stop immediately."
"Let's go down then!"
Ye Chen also wanted to try out the mysteries of the tunnel.
"Let's go!"
Sun Xiaojin walked onto the platform and arrived at the entrance of the tunnel.
It was a spiral staircase. The hole was twenty meters in diameter, and the staircase was nine meters wide. Near the wall of the staircase, there were rooms that were three meters wide. Therefore, the staircase that could be walked on was only six meters wide.
The two followed the staircase and started to go down.
First floor!
Second floor!
…
Seventh floor!
"Eh?" Sun Xiaojin was a bit surprised. He thought that the seventh floor would be Ye Chen's limit. He did not expect that he would be fine without any change in his expression.
Eighth floor!
Ninth floor!
…
Thirteenth floor!
"It seems like I have underestimated you."
It was the first time that Sun Xiaojin had seen an Astral Reaching Realm warrior reach the thirteenth floor. In the past, no one had even reached the seventh floor.
Ye Chen said, "In terms of Zhen yuan and body, I do not have much of an advantage. But, my will power is more than enough to make up for it and surpass it."
"Will power? Interesting. Those who walk on will power will basically become top warriors. You are qualified to be my rival in the future."
There were not many people who could get Sun Xiaojin's approval. In other words, Ye Chen had made Sun Xiaojin feel threatened. It was the kind of threat that he did not have much confidence in winning against Ye Chen at the same level.
After reaching the fifteenth floor, Ye Chen finally felt that he had reached his limit.
In terms of will power, he could handle it easily, but his Zhen yuan and body could not handle any more pressure. Even if his will power had canceled out a part of it, he would not be able to avoid it.
"Brother Sun, I will train here!"
Under the invisible pressure, even Ye Chen found it difficult to speak.
Sun Xiaojin nodded. His tall and sturdy body continued to walk down. Soon, he disappeared on the next floor.
Retracting his gaze, Ye Chen was about to let out a breath to relieve the pressure. But, just as he opened his mouth, he closed it immediately. He was afraid that if he let out a breath, it would cause an imbalance between the pressure inside and outside, which would cause his chest bones to collapse and cause serious injuries.
"I should still be careful."
Arriving at the door of the room next to him, Ye Chen opened the door and walked in.
The room was neither too big nor too small, three meters in both width and length. There was only a cushion on the floor, and nothing else.
Sitting on the cushion with his legs crossed, Ye Chen closed his eyes and entered the training mode.
"So slow!"
In the past, once Ye Chen activated his martial art, his Zhen yuan would circulate at a high speed like a rushing river. But, in the tunnel, the Zhen yuan's circulation speed was reduced by ten times. Every step forward was extremely difficult, as if there was a mountain inside.
"My body is at its limit, and so is my Zhen yuan. Fortunately, my will power is more than enough. Otherwise, training here would not be worth it, and it would be hard to concentrate."
Ye Chen had a preliminary understanding of the underwater tunnel's function. It was to use the pressure to push one to their limit, allowing them to improve even faster. Of course, too much pressure was not a good thing, since a person's potential could not be forced out all of a sudden. If one could not even move his mind, then there would be no training at all. There had to be a limit, and that limit would have to be controlled by oneself.
Soon, Ye Chen realized that the slow circulation speed of Zhen yuan was not a bad thing. Sometimes, if the circulation speed was too fast, it would be easy to miss out on the details. But now that it had slowed down, Ye Chen had a new understanding of the Green Lotus Sword Spell. He could clearly see the minute changes when the Zhen yuan was circulating. Every meridian it passed through actually had a slight difference.
"When the Zhen yuan passes through this meridian, it will produce a slow acceleration effect."
"The inner wall of this meridian is not smooth, which causes the Zhen yuan to vibrate."
…
After one month, Ye Chen had actually trained to the peak of the fourteenth realm of the Green Lotus Sword Spell, and had made two breakthroughs. It should be known that there were five breakthroughs from the peak of the fourteenth realm to the fifteenth realm. Making two breakthroughs was definitely unexpected.
Normally, when most people came to the underwater tunnel, they would be able to train faster. However, Ye Chen's will power was just too powerful. He was only at the peak of Late Astral Reaching Realm, but he had the master level sword intent. This kind of will power had allowed him to perform extremely well under extreme pressure. Most importantly, even if other people had the master level sword intent at the peak of Late Astral Reaching Realm, they would still not be able to compete with Ye Chen. They would at most be able to double the effect. But, it should not be forgotten that Ye Chen's master level sword intent was based on his extremely powerful soul. With a powerful soul, his sword intent would be even more powerful, which would give him endless motivation.
In other words, when battling with the same level of sword intent, Ye Chen would be able to last longer than anyone else, maybe even ten times longer. Ye Chen did not even know where the limit of his soul was, because only after reaching the Sea of Souls Realm would he be able to fully use his soul power. Right now, Ye Chen was only guessing.
The first two breakthroughs were easy to make, but the latter three would be much more difficult.
However, after two months, Ye Chen had still managed to reach the fifteenth realm of the Green Lotus Sword Spell, which was the highest realm. Once he reached the fifteenth realm, Ye Chen felt the pressure around him lighten up. His whole body felt light, as if he could float in the air.
Inside his dantian, on top of the blue lotus, countless lotus heart sword qi started to appear. One, two … ten, twenty … ninety-nine … ninety-nine lotus heart sword qi appeared in total. But, Ye Chen knew that this was only the number on the surface. Every time he used up a lotus heart sword qi, a new one would be born. As long as his Zhen yuan was not completely used up, the lotus heart sword qi would be endless, and it would be able to burst out a sword qi tornado.
"Doubled! My battling power has doubled again!"
Ye Chen, who was always calm, could not help but feel his blood boiling. At his level, the meaning of having his battling power doubled was obvious. Before, his limit was the battle power of a Soul Warrior. But now, he could completely compete with spirit warriors, and even kill normal spirit warriors.
"This Green Lotus Sword Spell is so powerful! Out of the ninety-nine lotus heart sword qi, even if only ten of them could be used at the same time, it would be enough to shock the world. After all, each lotus heart sword qi has a power close to the Amaranthine Nature. If ten of them were to be used at the same time, who in the same realm would be able to block it?"
"It turns out that the power of the soul has just been revealed. Before, I had buried the advantage of the soul power."
All this time, Ye Chen had only been training normally, using the comprehensive ability of the soul power. But now, he finally understood that under normal circumstances, the effect of the soul power could not be shown at all. Why did his immortal body training speed increase when he was being chased by the four Sea of Souls Realm demi-beasts from the Ao family? And why did his training speed increase when he was under the pressure in the underwater tunnel? It was all because of the pressure, because only pressure could bring out the real advantage of the soul power. Before, he could only use twenty to thirty percent of his soul power. But now, thinking about it, he realized that it was such a waste of resources.
"The more pressure there is, the more potential I have. I am still far from reaching my limit. But, once I understand the advantage of the soul power, it means that the future will not be peaceful anymore. How could normal training create pressure?"
Hehe!
Forcing a smile, Ye Chen thought to himself, 'Doesn't this mean that I am the reason for the chaos in this era? I am one of the reasons for the chaos in this world.'
Ye Chen had never thought that he would not be able to become a Life and Death Realm warrior. Therefore, when the world was in chaos, he would be one of the most important people.
Also, he had to thank Xiao Feng ¢Drizzle for tipping him twenty thousand Qidian coins, and Watermelon Skin N0 for tipping him twenty thousand Qidian coins.
