Bang!
Lu An's body rushed into the whirlpool under the protection of the power. Within the thousand feet wide whirlpool, his figure appeared extremely tiny. Being protected, he did not feel the slightest bit of pressure from the outside world.
He rapidly advanced downwards. Very quickly, he saw a special space. Before he could react, he had already rushed in!
Bang!
Lu An heavily fell to the ground. However, he firmly grasped onto the rocks on the ground to prevent his body from rolling. Otherwise, it would be terrible if he rolled out of the eye of the formation and into the whirlpool.
Lu An could sense that the power protection around his body had completely disappeared. In other words, from now on, he could only rely on himself.
Lu An struggled to stand up from the ground and began to observe his surroundings.
Firstly, he was in a special space. This space was indeed not large. It was hemispherical with a radius of around ten feet. In other words, he was ten feet away from the whirlpool above his head. His maximum range of movement was only twenty feet.
Secondly, this special space was not empty. On the contrary, it was still seawater. However, the seawater here carried a distinct chill. Even Lu An could clearly feel it. This did not mean that the seawater was colder than the Deep Ice. Instead, the seawater carried a bone-piercing aura. It was as though a hurricane was blowing through his body, incessantly stimulating his limbs and bones. Could this be the so-called pure power of the sea?
Thirdly, this place was extremely noisy. Although Prince Qi had mentioned that this place was noisy, Lu An did not expect it to be noisy to this extent! Previously, under the protection of Prince Qi's power, he did not feel anything. After all, the powerful power isolated sound outside. But once the protection was lost, the whirlpool produced a tremendous noise that Lu An could not hear anything clearly. He even tried to shout out loud, but even his own voice was difficult to hear.
Lastly, the power of this whirlpool was extremely great.
Lu An frowned. He carefully observed the strength of this vortex. At a depth of 46,000 feet, this massive vortex was formed by the interaction of two undercurrents. This pressure was absolutely not something that Lu An could resist, even if he used all of his trump cards. In particular, Lu An could not see the water flow in the whirlpool at all. Under such tremendous water pressure and power, even if Lu An released 'Wrath of the Ocean' against the whirlpool, the Deep Ice produced would be shattered by the tremendous power in an instant. There was no possibility of escaping at all.
The only way was to become a level eight Heavenly Master, as Prince Qi had said. As long as he became a Level Eight Heavenly Master, it would not be difficult for him to escape from here.
Listening to the deafening roars around him and looking at the raging vortex in front of him, Lu An did not continue watching. Instead, he returned to the center of the entire formation and sat cross-legged on the ground.
In the seawater, Lu An slowly closed his eyes. He needed to first sense the power in the surrounding seawater. He could also sense the purity and density of this power. However, the person in the black fog had said that he could not rely on any external power to increase his strength. Therefore, if he wanted to use this power, he had to transform it into his own power.
Thus, Lu An first used 'Spirit'.
Extracting the power of 'Spirit' from the seawater and absorbing it into his body was the best method for him.
However … when the power in the seawater came into contact with Lu An's body, something strange happened.

After seeing Lu An sitting cross-legged in the center of the formation, Prince Qi left the seabed. However, she did not return to Heavenly Tiger Island. Instead, she went to Life and Death Island.
She had been to Life and Death Island many times and was very familiar with this place. She even had a special feeling about it. When she arrived, she found that Yao and Beauty Yang were both there. These two women were so concerned about Lu An. How could they not come to inquire about him?
Seeing the two women's anxious expressions, Prince Qi, who had always been a straightforward person, directly said, "He has already gone."
Hearing Prince Qi's words, the two women trembled!
Lu An had really gone …
Although the two women had already expected this, they still lowered their heads when they heard the result. They were the ones who had pushed Lu An into the abyss. If something really happened to Lu An, they would not be able to make up for it even if they died.
"Don't worry, I will go and see him regularly." Prince Qi looked at the two women and said, "He is not someone with a weak will. He should be fine for the time being."
Hearing Prince Qi's words, the two women became even more worried. They looked at Prince Qi and asked, "What is the longest time someone has been in there?"
Prince Qi looked at Yao and said, "I only know of this hidden tomb. It has indeed allowed my clansmen to cultivate in there. The longest one lasted was about thirteen days?"
Thirteen days?
The two women's hearts shook. This time was even shorter than they had imagined!
"Then, did anyone successfully break through and come out?" Beauty Yang asked again.
"No." Prince Qi shook his head. "They were all brought out by someone else. Moreover, the clansmen who stayed the longest had huge mental problems after coming out. They had to recuperate for a long time before fully recovering. Even now, there are still aftereffects. They were originally very brave, but now, they have become the most cowardly clansmen in our Sky Tiger clan."
"… …"
Hearing Prince Qi's words, the two women became even more anxious. Even Beauty Yang showed an obvious look of panic. If Lu An's personality really changed after coming out, how would they explain it to the other women in the clan? How … how would they explain it to Fu Yu?
"The so-called hidden tomb is like a huge alchemy furnace. Lu An's strength can increase, but of course, there must be a certain degree of change." Prince Qi said, "It can change for the worse, but it can also change for the better. This all depends on the person, so you don't have to worry too much."
However, even if Prince Qi said so, she didn't believe it herself. Could someone who came out of that place really have a better personality?

Seven days later.
There was only half a month left before New Year's Eve and the world fell into chaos.
The women in the clan already knew that Lu An had gone to a special place to cultivate. Although they were worried, the only thing they could do was to help the Ice Fire Union develop better. The Ice Fire Union, which had obtained a huge treasure, attracted even more experts. On the eve of the world's chaos, the twenty strongholds of the Eight Ancient Continents were already filled with people. They only had to wait until next year to launch a large-scale attack.
Yao Yao returned to the Celestial Pond to cultivate, but every day, she would go to the Life and Death Island with Beauty Yang to gather information. Prince Qi would visit Lu An every day. Although she told Lu An that she wouldn't care about him, this was only to make Lu An lose all paths of retreat. This way, he would be able to completely immerse himself in cultivation.
Standing in the middle of the whirlpool, Prince Qi could clearly see the scene in the eye of the formation. Lu An was quietly sitting cross-legged in the center. Lu An had already maintained this state for seven days.
During these seven days, every time Prince Qi came, Lu An would be like this. Whether it was the direction he was facing or the position he was sitting in, there was not the slightest change. In other words, Lu An really hadn't moved at all.
If it weren't for the energy in the eye of the formation constantly converging towards Lu An, Prince Qi would really think that Lu An was dead.
At this moment, Lu An's entire body was covered in a deep blue light. However, when this light touched Lu An's body, it would turn into nothingness and merge into Lu An's body.
Even Prince Qi was curious about what this energy form was. However, it was only curiosity. There were too many strange things in this world. Even she couldn't know everything clearly.
At this very moment, within the eye of the formation, Lu An's eyes were tightly closed as he absorbed the energy around him. In just seven days, he could clearly feel that he had made significant progress!
The ocean energy was indeed very dense and could really increase his strength. It was so obvious that even Lu An felt that it was very strange! This strange feeling was something that Lu An had felt from the very first day he started cultivating!
At the very beginning, before he could completely refine the ocean energy into a 'spirit' form, the ocean energy was still flowing into his body and he couldn't do anything about it. However, the problem was that when the ocean energy merged into his body, he felt an extremely familiar and even intimate feeling!
Lu An had always trusted his intuition. He was very sure that this wasn't an illusion. This familiar and intimate feeling was very real. However, he didn't know why this was happening.
However, this intimate feeling also had a kind of estrangement. It was as if something was forcefully cutting it off, making it impossible for him to completely absorb the ocean energy. Otherwise, his progress would have been even faster!
Because of this problem, Lu An couldn't figure it out even after thinking about it for seven days. Until now, he could only give up.
However, Lu An always felt that there was an inconceivable connection between him and the ocean.
