"The Dragon Pond is a secret place that has existed since ancient times. It is said that it was once the residence of a true dragon. The Dragon Pond itself has a strict restriction. Only those who have reached the Harmonious Spirit Realm or above can enter. After entering, not only can it greatly improve our demonic energy and physical fitness, but it can also increase our chances of entering the Half Law Realm."
"There are records of humans entering the Dragon Pool in the history of the Dragon Pool. However, the result was a little shocking. Since ancient times, there were nearly ten people who entered the Dragon Pool. All of them were people who had done favors for our Dragon Tribe. Among these ten people, only three of them managed to obtain great benefits from the Dragon Pool and left. The remaining seven could not endure the enormous pressure of the Dragon Pool and died."
"That's why I don't know whether it's a good or bad thing to invite you, Yang Li." Long Ci said with some apprehension. Although he trusted Yang Li, he was still a little uneasy about entering the Dragon Pond. After all, those who had entered the Dragon Pond were all very outstanding.
Even so, seven of them had died. A seventy percent death rate made it difficult for him to make up his mind. However, from his point of view, the only way he could repay Yang Li for saving his life was to use his own life in exchange for Yang Li's. It was precisely because of this high death rate that the chief of the Flood Dragon Tribe had agreed so readily.
For the Flood Dragon Clan Leader, if Yang Li could survive, then their Flood Dragon Clan would have a great help in the future. Those who could survive the Dragon Pond would never be unknown! If Yang Li could not survive, then it wouldn't be a big loss to the Flood Dragon Clan. Therefore, when Long Ci spoke, he immediately agreed.
Naturally, Yang Li didn't know about this. After hearing Long Ci's words, Yang Li smiled faintly and said, "Long Ci, cultivators go against the heavens to seize fate. If we give up a great opportunity because of a moment of danger, then we don't need to fight for our lives!"
Long Ci was taken aback when he heard this. Then, he revealed a relaxed smile and said, "You're the one who's open-minded. In that case, I've been worrying too much."
Yang Li shook his head smilingly and said, "Why don't you tell me more about the Dragon Pool?"
Long Ci's face turned serious when he heard this. He said seriously, "This time, both Zi Xu and Yang Li will be entering the Dragon Pool. According to what I know from the ancient book, and what my father and some other elders who have been baptized in the Dragon Pool have said …"
"The Dragon Lake not only targets the demonic power and physical qualities, but also the mind!"
"After entering the Dragon Pool, there will be a huge pressure surrounding your body. If you can withstand this pressure, your body's quality will be greatly improved. If you can't, you will die."
"After the pressure passes, the water in the Dragon Pool will enter your body, bringing you intense pain and burning your spiritual energy. Similarly, if you can withstand the pain, you will gain benefits. If you can't, all of your spiritual energy will disappear."
"After the Spiritual Energy Test, it's the Mind Test. This test shouldn't be a problem for Yang Li. After all, the two months of Mind Test in the Mysterious Thunder Realm wasn't for nothing."
"However, the most terrifying test isn't the Body Test, the Spiritual Energy Test, or the Mind Test. It's the last test, the Law Test!"
"As we all know, after the Harmonious God realm is the Half-Law realm. In the Half-Law realm, one has to comprehend the laws, and their attacks will contain the power of the laws. This is also why no matter how powerful we are, we can't challenge those in the Half-Law realm. That's because we don't understand the laws. If we comprehend the laws, then there's nothing more to say. Challenging those in the Half-Law realm is just a piece of cake."
"And the fourth test of the Dragon Pool is the Law Test. In the fourth test, you can see all kinds of laws. You'll be in close contact with the laws that are most suitable for you. However, with our current cultivation, we won't be able to comprehend the laws. At most, we can only understand a little bit."
"This experience will leave a deep impression on us. When we comprehend the laws in the future, it will be of great help."
"However, this stage is also the most dangerous one. The slightest bit of carelessness could cause one's mind to collapse and be devoured by the nomological laws. At the same time, the nomological laws here are mostly suitable for our Demon Race. Therefore, it is extremely difficult for humans to comprehend anything from within. Those humans who have entered this stage have most likely died in this stage."
Yang Li quietly listened to Long Ci's introduction. He also understood in his heart that although all races could cultivate, it was inevitable that some laws were suitable for the Demon Race, and some were suitable for the Human Race. Of course, it was not that the Human Race could not comprehend the Demon Race's laws, it was just that it would be much more difficult to comprehend.
When Long Ci finished his introduction of the Dragon Pool, Yang Li and Zi Xu also understood. After asking some other questions, the three of them entered into a state of cultivation, adjusting their state for the upcoming journey.
Two days later, a Flood Dragon arrived at Long Ci's cave. The three of them opened their eyes at the same time. Long Ci looked at the Flood Dragon and said, "Are you here to take us to the Dragon Pool?"
The Flood Dragon nodded and said in a muffled voice, "Yes, Young Patriarch. The Patriarch said that the Dragon Pool has opened. Young Patriarch can take us there now."
"Alright, I understand. You can go now." Long Ci said casually. The Flood Dragon retreated after hearing his words.
Long Ci turned to Yang Li and said, "I don't know much about the Dragon Pool Secret Territory. I hope that you two will take care of yourselves when you enter. I hope that you'll be able to obtain some benefits and leave successfully!"
Yang Li and Zi Xu responded with a smile. The three of them then got up and walked towards the Dragon Pool.
The Dragon Pool wasn't far from the mountain stream they were at. In less than fifteen minutes, the three of them arrived near the Dragon Pool. At this time, there were already many Flood Dragon Clan's demonic beasts guarding the area. After all, there were many demons who coveted the Dragon Pool.
In the past, when the Dragon Pool opened, there would always be some unknown demonic beasts who came here in vain, trying to enter the Dragon Pool. However, this year, the Dragon Pool opened earlier than expected. Therefore, there weren't many demonic beasts who came here. Instead, the Flood Dragons felt much more relaxed.
After Yang Li arrived at the Dragon Pool, he took a look at the surroundings. Although the Dragon Pool was called a pool, it was actually a huge lake. Judging from its size, it was about the size of a mortal city. On both sides of the Dragon Pool, there were lush green trees, which made the place seem full of vitality.
After Yang Li and the others arrived, Long Ci brought them to his father, Long Qin, the Patriarch of the Flood Dragon Clan. Long Qin was the same as Long Ci. He was also in human form. His appearance was like a mortal scholar, extremely delicate. If they didn't know his identity, they wouldn't have thought that he was the Patriarch of the Flood Dragon Clan.
After seeing Yang Li and the others, Long Qin smiled and nodded. He then told Yang Li and the others, "You can enter directly. However, it's best to not enter too close to each other. Otherwise, it will affect the benefits you will get. No matter which level you are in, if you feel that you can't take it, leave the Dragon Pool as soon as possible. That way, you will have a chance to survive. Don't use it all at once!"
Zi Xu and Yang Li nodded, indicating that they understood. Long Qin waved his hand and let the three of them leave. Yang Li and the other two flew off in three different directions. With three "putong" sounds, the three of them disappeared from the surface of the lake.
Seeing the three of them enter, Long Qin's gentle gaze suddenly sharpened. His scholarly temperament also disappeared without a trace. Instead, it was replaced by a dense killing intent. With a single glance, one could tell that this person was decisive in killing.
"All members of the Flood Dragon Clan, spread out your Divine Sense. Observe every single movement within a hundred miles. Observe every blade of grass and every tree! In this Dragon Pool, there are not only the young Patriarch of our Flood Dragon Clan, but also the young Patriarch of the Purple Devil Cow Clan and a heaven-defying talent of the Human Clan! "
"If they can come out alive, when they grow up, our Flood Dragon Clan won't have to worry about anything in the South Dragon Domain or even the Southern Region. Do you understand?"
"Yes!" The surrounding warriors of the Flood Dragon Clan replied. Their eyes also became sharp as they observed the situation around them cautiously.
Fortunately, they had only been in the Dragon Pool for seven days. If they stayed any longer, the flood dragons might not be able to hold on. After all, they had to be extremely tense during these seven days.
…
"The pressure doesn't seem to be as strong as Long Ci said. What's going on?" Yang Li felt the pressure around him with a puzzled look. According to Long Ci, the pressure should be enough to completely crush their bodies.
However, in Yang Li's senses, the pressure wasn't that great. It only made him feel slightly heavier, and it didn't put too much pressure on his movements. In fact, it wasn't even as oppressive as the pressure Long Qin gave him.
However, Yang Li soon realized that the pressure in the Dragon Pool was actually increasing! As time went by, the pressure became stronger and stronger. After a day, the pressure had reached its peak. Yang Li also found it difficult to breathe.
"This is a little bit of pressure, but it's still not enough. This pressure alone can't crush me!" Yang Li felt the pressure around him and thought to himself.
Although breathing became difficult and his body became extremely difficult to move, Yang Li did not care at all. Instead, he hoped that the pressure would be stronger so that he could improve his strength after releasing the pressure.
Although the situation on Yang Li's side seemed to be more serious, on the other side, Zixu's performance was exactly the same as his. Yang Li's physique as a human was actually exactly the same as Zixu's physique as a demon! If anyone else saw this, they would definitely be extremely shocked.
After all, it had always been a rumor that the body of the human race was inferior to that of the demon race. However, Yang Li had obviously broken everyone's understanding of this matter. After all, Yang Li had been paying attention to the training of his physique since the beginning.
Later, after the baptism of the Black Tortoise Secret Territory and the Black Thunder Secret Territory, his physique had improved to another level. This was also the reason why Yang Li could persist.
