The sparring session came to an end and Lu Ming witnessed the power of the Ancient God Body. Lu Ming returned to his residence and waited patiently.
Seven days later, the Blood Pool was officially opened.
Lu Ming and more than twenty young men of the Eighth Tribe followed a few old men to a huge stone palace.
In addition to them, many people from the Eighth Tribe had gathered outside the stone temple. They were all here to watch.
"Blood Pool, open!"
An old man shouted softly.
Then, a few old men stepped forward and condensed strange runes in their hands. The runes flew toward the gate of the stone palace. The gate opened with a rumble, revealing a dark entrance.
"Go in. Remember, do your best. The longer you stay in the Blood Pool, the more bloodline power you absorb and the stronger your awakened Ancient God Body will be."
An old man warned.
"Yes!"
The twenty or so youths nodded in unison, and then walked towards the door.
Lu Ming was among them. When they entered the gate, the gate closed with a rumble.
When the gate was closed, the gate glowed and an image appeared above the gate. It was the image of Lu Ming and the others in the stone palace.
They could see everything from the outside, which was why so many people came to watch.
"I wonder how many people will awaken the Ancient God Body this time."
"About half. Every time, it's about half. I hope it's more this time."
"I hope someone can awaken the Orange Ancient God Body."
"I wonder what level of Ancient God Body Lu Ming will awaken?"
"He has condensed the Ancient God Heart, so he'll at least have the Orange Ancient God Body. It's not impossible for him to awaken the Yellow Ancient God Body."
"Once the Yellow Ancient God Body is awakened, his future will be limitless."
Many people were watching and talking about it.
After Lu Ming and the rest entered the door of the stone hall, they saw a pitch-black passageway. They walked along the passageway. After walking for a hundred miles, the light in front of them lit up. They actually came to a huge space. This space was very bright and there was a small lake on the ground.
The water was blood-red and there was a terrifying energy rippling out.
"Is this the Blood Pool? It's a lake!"
Lu Ming sighed.
"Let's go in. Remember, hold on for as long as you can. There's only one chance, so we have to seize it."
Gu Zhuo warned everyone.
Everyone nodded and slowly walked down the blood pool.
Lu Ming also stepped out and entered the blood pool.
As soon as he stepped into the blood pool, a strange, powerful energy rushed toward Lu Ming. It entered Lu Ming's skin and entered Lu Ming's Ancient God Heart.
"This is … the aura of an Ancient God!"
Lu Ming could sense that the energy pouring in from the blood pool contained a rich Ancient God aura.
Lu Ming quickened his pace. Soon, his entire body was submerged in the lake. From all directions, even more energy rushed towards Lu Ming and surged into the Ancient God's Heart.
The Ancient God's Heart started thumping. As the energy poured in, the Ancient God's Heart beat even faster. It even released a burst of energy to absorb the energy from the outside world.
Outside the stone hall, everyone waited quietly.
About three hours later.
Splash!
The lake water churned. A youth rushed out of the lake and landed on the shore, gasping for breath.
"I … failed!"
The youth's eyes were filled with disappointment and loneliness.
He had not awakened his Ancient God Body, but he could not withstand the energy in the blood pool. This meant that he had failed.
There was a strange energy in the blood pool. Each person could only enter once. If they entered a second time, they would be expelled by the energy.
If he did not succeed this time, he would not be able to awaken his Ancient God Body again.
"Gu Feng failed. Sigh, although I knew that his chances of success were low, I still had a glimmer of hope. What a pity …"
Outside the stone hall, someone sighed. It was Gu Feng's family.
Gu Feng's failure was just the beginning. Following that, more and more people failed and rushed out of the blood pool.
Once they entered the blood pool, a powerful energy would rush into their bodies. When the energy accumulated enough, it would even cause their bodies to explode.
Therefore, many people could not withstand it.
This was a test of one's willpower and the density of their Ancient God Bloodline. The denser one's Ancient God Bloodline was, the easier it was to absorb the energy.
Take Lu Ming for example. His Ancient God Heart was constantly absorbing the energy. He did not feel any pressure at all.
As time passed, more and more people failed. After half a day, half of the people had failed.
These people who had failed all had ugly expressions as they sighed in despair.
The people outside the stone hall became nervous.
That was because those who could stay in the blood pool for half a day had a high chance of awakening their Ancient God Body.
Roar!
Suddenly, a loud roar came from a direction of the blood pool. Waves of blood surged in that direction, forming a whirlpool.
At the same time, a huge figure appeared out of thin air.
This figure was not real, but a phantom.
This was the true phantom of the Ancient God.
The phantom of the Ancient God raised its head and roared, exuding an aura of supremacy.
Then, a loud roar came from under the lake. Then, the figure of a young man appeared. His body began to swell. He was originally about two meters tall, but soon he grew to three meters, then four meters.
Crimson scales also appeared on the surface of his body.
Someone had succeeded. He had successfully awakened the Red-armored Ancient God Body.
Finally, the young man's body stopped growing when he was eight meters tall.
As his cultivation increased in the future, when he transformed into the Ancient God Body, his height would also increase.
At this time, the phantom of the Ancient God in the sky disappeared. It turned into a ray of light and entered the young man's body. The young man's body began to shrink to the size of a normal person. He landed on the shore with a smile on his face.
"Congratulations, Gu Tong!"
"Congratulations on awakening the Ancient God Body."
On the shore, the young men who had failed came over to congratulate him. They were all envious.
Outside the stone hall, many people were also happy.
Every tribe member who awakened the Ancient God Body would strengthen the strength of the Eighth Tribe.
This young man's success seemed to be the prelude to success. Following that, more and more young men succeeded.
Two days later, a total of eleven young men and women had awakened the Ancient God Body. However, they were all red-armored. None of them had an orange-armored Ancient God Body.
Two days later, only two people were still in the blood pool.
One was Lu Ming, and the other was Gu Zhuo.
"Gu Zhuo is very talented. I wonder if he can awaken the orange-armored Ancient God Body."
"Let's wait and see. If he can stay in the blood pool for three days, he might awaken the orange-armored Ancient God Body!"
"It's hard to say. Gu Ming stayed in the blood pool for five days."
Outside the stone hall, many people were looking forward to it.
