The lake water was clear and bright like a pool of fine wine. Multicolored light overflowed, mists rising, mists curling about. It was a sparkling and translucent expanse.
The Immortal Transformation Pool was at the summit of an enormous mountain. Even though it wasn't that large, it gave one the misconception of a world.
Correct, it wasn't like a pool of water, but rather a lively and beautiful small world. This place seemed to contain the secrets of the origin of life.
"There is a sound!"
A pool of jade liquid connected the endless blue skies, releasing the sound of surging tides. It was as if someone was seated in the void, explaining the great dao of the creation of heaven and earth.
The immortal pool's surface was clear and crystalline, multicolored mists swirling about. Five colors shone brilliantly, water specks speckling about. It wasn't that intense and could be considered gentle, but it made quite a few people frown. It was because they could vaguely hear heaven and earth chanting ancient scriptures.
Putong!
A cultivator couldn't hold himself back any longer, the first to jump into the lake, fiercely diving down to search for emperor weapon fragments and other holy objects.
"It is definitely the extreme dao emperor weapons that shattered here. It is the great dao scriptures within them that are echoing!"
Qiang!
There were cultivators who raised their swords, fighting for the sake of choosing an advantageous position. With a pu sound, a head flew, blood splashing outwards, corpse falling onto the ground.
Everyone couldn't remain calm when facing the immortal pool, all of them taking action. Many people jumped into the lake one after another, wishing to fish up world shocking holy objects.
Peng!
Intense fluctuations transmitted outwards. Two sect master level figures took action, stirring up a great wave. The immortal pool's life essence energy flowed in all directions, making the hearts of everyone here tremble.
If one could obtain either the Immortal Transformation Pool or the Ancient Dragon Cave, then they would have a sliver of hope of verifying the dao. This legend spread far and wide, so everyone was naturally moved. Everyone wanted to obtain something.
In that short instant, there were already several dozen people who jumped in. The others weren't willing to fall behind, jumping in one after another.
"Something's not right, why isn't a single person coming up?" Ji Ziyue muttered softly.
The lake water was clear, pure like sapphire. Streak after streak of auspicious multicolored light swirled about, but no one jumped out from the water surface, only entering but not coming out.
Many experts were alarmed, already sensing that something was wrong. They all stopped their footsteps, and those who had just jumped up also cried out in alarm, forcefully flipping back.
"Just now, a great figure also jumped in, not coming back up …" Someone said softly.
The others all shivered inwardly, no longer daring to act blindly blindly. Could it be that something unexpected happened to these people, dying below? People were scared.
"Let this old man take a closer look." One of the Dragon Seeking Earthly Masters stepped forward and opened his eyes to observe the Immortal lake.
Everyone held their breaths and quietly listened to what he was going to say. They were faced with an immortal land that could prove their Dao, but they were unable to enter. Everyone was nervous and anxious.
"There should be no problem. This is a true land of ascension, indescribably wondrous, unparalleled in the world. How could there be danger …" the Dragon Seeking Geomaster muttered to himself.
Ouyang Ye stepped forward. He came from the Eastern Wastelands and was extremely famous in the Origin technique world. He was infinitely close to becoming an Origin Master, and his methods were outstanding.
"This immortal lake is extremely perfect, not the slightest flaw to be found. It could be said to be a place where true immortals descended. There are definitely no problems. They didn't come up, could it be that they are hiding below?"
The Genesis Technique Grandmasters from the Eastern Wilderness all stepped forward and agreed with Ouyang Ye's judgment. This was a perfect place for immortal ascension.
A Genesis technique grandmaster said, "Brother Ye is also here. His Genesis techniques are unique, and as the successor of our Eastern Wasteland's Heaven Masters, I believe that he must have some brilliant ideas."
"Little friend Ye, don't hide anything. If you have any ideas, I hope you can share them and give us some pointers," Ouyang Ye said in a neutral tone.
Ye Fan glanced at him. This old thing had bullied him time and time again in the Eastern Wasteland. When his identity as a Saint Physique was exposed in the northern region's Divine City, he had almost died because of it.
At this moment, if no one else was present, Ye Fan would have already made his move and sent this old thing to hell. However, he was walking together with several powerful experts, so he was not easy to deal with.
"You've already said what you need to say. What else do you want me to say?" Ye Fan said.
Ouyang Ye twirled his beard and said, "That's not right. You've obtained the inheritance of the Yuan Taoist Master, so you should have some unique ideas. I hope you won't be stingy and dispel the doubts of everyone here."
There were several sect master level figures beside him, and they were the ones who had invited him from the Eastern Wasteland. At this moment, he had nothing to fear.
"Old fellow, are you tired of living? Even now, you still want to sow discord. Be careful that Master Pang doesn't catch you and feed you to the dogs!" Pang Bo spoke in a boorish manner.
"Young man, why must you be so overbearing? This old man is merely seeking guidance on behalf of our fellow daoists," Ouyang Ye said.
"If Brother Ye knows, I hope you can give us some pointers so that our fellow daoists won't die in vain," an elder spoke.
From the way he addressed Ye Fan, one could tell that he had a certain degree of trepidation towards Ye Fan. A first-layer immortal-foundation expert actually spoke in the tone of someone of the same generation.
At this point, other than mortal enemies like the Yin Yang Sect and Ouyang Ye, at the very least on the surface, not many people were willing to offend the Saint Physique. His growth was simply too fast. In just a few years, he was already at the eighth transformation of the dragon transformation. Every time he was suppressed, he would grow even stronger, causing people to feel incomparable trepidation.
"Little friend, please enlighten us." A sect master level character spoke. Many people echoed his words.
Ye Fan naturally wouldn't offend the crowd. He circled around the immortal transformation pool and seriously pondered for a long time before speaking, "When things reach an extreme, they will always move in the opposite direction. If one is too perfect, there would definitely be a great regret. This place is undoubtedly the Flying Immortal Grounds, but there would definitely be great danger. Everyone, please be careful."
"What? It's said in the legends that the immortal transformation pool is a place of great danger? In that case, those who entered earlier all died?" Instantly, the countenances of many people changed.
"Little friend Ye, please don't be stingy and allow us all to have an immortal fate," Ouyang Ye spoke.
"When things reach an extreme, they will move in the opposite direction. When these three fuse together, there's no solution in this world." Ye Fan spoke. What he said was the truth.
Just the first 'when things reach an extreme, they will move in the opposite direction' was something no one could break. Back then in the forbidden grounds of the Absolute Beginning Era, the fourth generation Yuan Taoist Master died there in his later years.
"Little friend, this is where you're wrong. So many of us came here. Are you going to let us all return empty-handed? Since you obtained the Original Heavenly Book, you must have a way to break it. Don't tell me you're going to monopolize this place?" Ouyang Ye sneered.
"Old man, I think you're tired of living. Do you want to force us? If you want to die, just say it. "Dongfang Ye was like a barbarian. He held the wolf tooth club in his hand and glared at him.
"You …" Ouyang Ye was protected by several sect masters. Although she wasn't afraid, she was still angered by such direct words.
"Die far away. If I want to kill you, no one can stop me!" Ye Fan stood with his hands behind his back. His eyes were ice-cold as he stared at the Original Technique expert.
"Help …" Suddenly, the water in the immortal pool split open. A three-inch-tall silver person rushed out and cried for help.
This was an incomparably powerful divine sense belonging to the almighty expert who had just jumped into the lake. It was a humanoid god formed from the mind power in the space between his eyebrows.
At this moment, his physical body had disappeared. Only the silver person had escaped. This was enough to explain the problem — he had encountered a disaster!
"Dao friend, what happened?" A sect master shouted.
"Ah …" The silver person was incomparably terrified. A crack appeared in the space between his eyebrows. Then, with a bang, it shattered into four pieces and turned into a white light that disappeared into the lake.
"This was an almighty expert, but he died just like that!" Everyone couldn't help but retreat. Their bodies were shivering and their hearts were filled with cold air.
After a long time, a sect master opened his mouth and said, "Little friend Ye, please give us some pointers."
The people beside Ouyang Ye also spoke up one after another, asking him to explain and point out a path. The Heavenly Origin Book was a wondrous book. Many people were almost superstitious about it. They believed that it could decipher all the terrains in the world.
"Young man, don't be so solitary. In this kind of place, we need to work together. It's not too realistic to want to swallow the immortal transformation pond alone. Otherwise, there will be a great disaster," Ouyang Ye said.
"Do you really think I don't dare to kill you?" Ye Fan didn't have the slightest good impression of him. He took a large step forward and the Heavenly Origin Rune under his feet flickered. A scarlet dragon rushed out and turned into a scarlet sky as it pounced towards Ouyang Ye.
"Clang!"
A sect master took action and blocked the scarlet sky. The mountain peak shook violently and everyone was shocked. Ye Fan could really compete with a sect master.
"Little friend, why do you have to kill him?" That sect master said.
"We just look down on this lowly person. Have all these years been wasted on a dog?" Li Heishui was the first to speak. The others all stared at Ouyang Ye.
"This is the Land of Flying Immortals. It's accompanied by great calamity that can't be resolved. If everyone wants to obtain something, then search the shallow waters." Ye Fan spoke. He was the first to walk towards the lake.
Pang Bo, Dongfang Ye, Li Heishui, the Jade Lake Saintess, Ji Ziyue, and the others followed. They entered the lake and the water was knee-deep. They didn't dare to go any further.
The others also followed after seeing this. They scattered around the lake and searched carefully. Not long after, someone cried out in alarm, "Divine object!"
One of the middle-aged men scooped up a piece of scarlet jade from the water. It was as big as a person's head, and it was bright red and glistening. The multicolored light it emitted illuminated all the bones in his body, making his body almost transparent.
"Scarlet Jade King of the Ninth Heaven!"
"Heavens, this is a peerless divine object that even the ancient saints couldn't find. It can be refined into an immortal holy weapon!"
The group's eyes were red. The sect masters couldn't sit still and rushed over. Many people secretly wanted to snatch it.
Suddenly, the head-sized Scarlet Jade King turned into a scarlet rainbow and left the man's palm. It flew into the center of the lake and disappeared.
That young expert almost fainted. He thought he had ascended to heaven, but the next moment, he was kicked out. He let out a heart-wrenching scream.
"The peerless divine object that the ancient saints couldn't find in their entire lives … I hate it!"
The others were also stunned. They were all incomparably regretful. The Scarlet Jade King of the Ninth Heaven had gained intelligence and escaped on its own.
"There are treasures in the celestial pond. Since ancient times, fragments of imperial weapons have fallen here. Even Emperor Qing was born here. Quickly search!"
The people on the shore were boiling. This was just the beginning and someone had already seen a divine object. One could imagine what was in the lake.
"There really are treasures!" Pang Bo muttered. He poked Ye Fan and said, "You have to find the Heavenly Book of Origin. Search carefully and find two extreme divine objects."
"Yeah, if we can fish out an imperial weapon fragment, it'll be worth it no matter what price we pay." The barbarian's eyes shone.
"Little Ye, you have to look carefully." Little Moon of the Ji Family said in a small voice. The Jade Lake saintess smiled at the side.
"You guys follow me. I want to walk a certain distance in the depths," said Ye Fan.
Now, not only did Ye Fan make this decision, the others were also fearless. They walked into the depths bit by bit in search of immortal weapons.
Hong!
Suddenly, a great tremor sounded. The ancient dragon cave at the base of another great peak took in and spat out a true dragon origin. A draconic cry rose into the nine heavens and descended into the nine netherworlds.
It was clear that a group of sect master level characters had entered and triggered a great change. The ancient dragon cave seemed to have revived!
In the ancient cave, there were mortal immortal pills, fantasy grade divine marrow, and even sacred spirits comparable to great emperors. Many people's expressions changed.
"The ancestor of the Cai Clan, the fourth generation Yuan Taoist Master, has also come into being?!" Ye Fan was bewildered.
"Hehe …" Ouyang Ye laughed coldly and said, "The draconic energy here has returned to its origin. It can't be used by others."
As soon as these words came out, everyone looked at Ye Fan. Ouyang Ye was clearly telling them that they could kill him now.
"Ouyang Ye, you will die today without a doubt. No one can save you!" Ye Fan said calmly.
"Can you compare to me if you can't summon the draconic energy?" Ouyang Ye laughed coldly. He had already made sufficient preparations to eliminate Ye Fan.
"Something's wrong. Is there still a great emperor alive in this world?!" On the shore, the sickly old man spoke in horror. His dim eyes shot out two terrifying rays of light, causing the nearby sect masters to retreat in fright.
