"Haha, from now on, I'm the Vice Commander!" Yang Wu laughed maniacally as soon as he walked out of the Rose of Death's tent.
During this period of time, he had endured humiliation and finally gotten rid of his identity as a prison slave soldier. Furthermore, he had risen to the heavens in a single step and became a Vice Commander. This was a title that he had obtained through his own merits. It was different from his previous hereditary title of Viscount. The former was obtained through his own efforts, while the latter was obtained through the shadow of his predecessors.
It was a completely different feeling. Yang Wu couldn't help but want to tell this news to everyone in the world. He wanted to tell Shou Hou, Wan Lanxin, and Little Man. He even wanted to tell his separated parents and younger brother that he had taken the first step to revitalize the Yang Family.
If he was in any other military camp, there would definitely be a large number of soldiers coming to congratulate him when he was promoted to Vice Commander. However, this was the Death Legion, a legion without military rules. No one cared about Yang Wu as the new Vice Commander because they were the laziest group of people. They would only respect him if he had enough strength to deter them.
Yang Wu quickly suppressed the excitement in his heart. He had to first go to the Cold Adjutant to receive everything that belonged to him. He also had to go to the Purification Pool to completely remove the bad luck that was branded on his body.
Only after going through the baptism of the Purification Pool could he be considered to have truly gotten rid of his identity as a prison slave. The Purification Pool was an important place in the military and was guarded by a King. No one could easily enter it.
Soon, Yang Wu arrived at the Cold Adjutant's tent. The Cold Adjutant had already prepared Yang Wu's Vice Commander's exclusive reward.
"This is your reward. Your merits are also recorded. You can use it to exchange for pills, battle techniques, weapons, etc …" The Cold Adjutant was still coldly explaining some matters to Yang Wu.
Yang Wu memorized all of this in his heart and felt an inexplicable sense of responsibility. His position as Vice Commander wasn't just a title, he had to make contributions to this position.
"Are there any other questions? If not, you may leave," the Cold Adjutant said.
Yang Wu said, "Adjutant, I want to go to the purification pool to wash away the bad luck!"
"No problem. You and Sun Dou are allowed to go to the Cleansing Pool together!" The cold-faced adjutant showed a rare friendliness.
For a young man that even their leader valued, he needed to lower his pride a little.
Yang Wu cupped his hands and said gratefully, "Thank you, Adjutant!"
After that, the cold-faced adjutant quickly wrote down a pass and stamped it with his seal. Then, he let Yang Wu take it. It was enough for him and Skinny Monkey to enter the purification pool together.
Yang Wu thanked the cold-faced adjutant again before leaving the tent to look for Skinny Monkey.
Skinny Monkey already knew about Yang Wu's matter. He was already waiting outside. When he saw Yang Wu come out, he immediately went forward to congratulate him, "Congratulations Big Brother on becoming a Deputy Commander."
"Haha, let's go to the Purification Pool first. We'll celebrate after we come out." Yang Wu welcomed the skinny monkey and laughed heartily.
This was definitely their happiest day in a while.
Yang Wu and Skinny Monkey didn't have time to greet Li Dazui. Entering the Purification Pool was their top priority.
The Purification Pool was located in a valley to the east of the military camp. It was a pool formed by diluting the spirit spring. Some plants that could purify bad luck were planted in it. At the bottom of the pool was the most important "Purification Stone". This kind of Purification Stone had the ability to purify all kinds of bad luck and evil energy.
Some soldiers who had been fighting outside all year round liked to stay near the Purification Pool to heal their wounds. This was because the Purification Pool could also purify the evil energy and evil energy on their body, making it difficult for them to go berserk.
Under the lead of a soldier, Yang Wu and the skinny monkey-like man arrived in front of the Purification Pond. Around them, there were many naked soldiers. All of them had injuries on their bodies, and their bodies were exuding a dense Evil Qi. The Purification Qi emitted from this place was purifying their Qi, causing their facial expressions to become much more peaceful.
"This is the Purification Pool. After you hand over the documents, you can enter the pool. You can only soak in the pool for a quarter of an hour. If you exceed that time, you'll have to bear the consequences." The soldier who led Yang Wu and Skinny Monkey said as he pointed at the pool of water in front of them.
"Alright, thank you, brother!" Yang Wu said gratefully. He then stuffed a piece of gold into the soldier's hand.
A trace of joy flashed across the soldier's face, but he quickly hid it and said, "The Purification Pool has the ability to purify all kinds of bad luck. However, if you soak in it for a quarter of an hour, your fighting spirit and killing intent might be wiped out. This isn't a good thing for us soldiers, so you'll have to take care of yourselves."
After that, the soldier turned and left. It was obvious that he had said all this because of the gold that Yang Wu had given him.
"Let's go, brother. We'll soak in it for a while to get rid of the bad luck. It's just a formality anyway." Skinny Monkey said disapprovingly.
"No, before we were imprisoned, we were branded with a slave seal. This seal was injected into our bodies using a special method. Only the water in the Purification Pool can purify it, so we must wash it properly." Yang Wu said seriously.
Immediately after, the two of them showed the documents to the soldiers who were stationed here and were allowed to enter the Purification Pool.
The two of them were the first Prison Slave Soldiers to enter the Purification Pool through their own efforts in recent years. In the past, most of the Prison Slave Soldiers had died on the battlefield, so it was very difficult for them to get the chance to enter the Purification Pool.
Yang Wu and the skinny monkey-like man's mood suddenly became much more excited. After they arrived at the purifying pool, they quickly took off their clothes and then jumped into the pool of warm water.
Sizzle!
As soon as they entered the Purification Pool, they immediately felt a very cool feeling wash over their bodies. It made them feel very comfortable and calm. At the same time, traces of the bad luck that had been branded on their bodies were invisibly expelled.
They could clearly feel that their bodies had become ethereal. It was as if some kind of lock had been opened, releasing their original selves.
"This is so good!" Yang Wu and Skinny Monkey couldn't help but exclaim.
This comfortable feeling made them close their eyes and relax. The fatigue on their bodies was swept away.
At this time, the soldiers on the shore muttered unhappily, "Where did these two lunatics come from? How could they be so crazy as to jump into the Purification Pool?"
"Damn it. Don't they know that bathing in the Purification Pool is no longer allowed? Don't tell me they are two newbies? "
"Who cares? When they come up, we'll teach them a lesson."
…
These soldiers had seen blood on the battlefield. Even if some of the murderous aura was purified by the Purification Pool, their fiery personalities weren't so easily changed. When they saw the naked Yang Wu and Skinny Monkey soaking in the Purification Pool, they couldn't stand it.
However, Yang Wu and Skinny Monkey couldn't hear them. They were already enjoying the feeling of relaxation. They couldn't hear what others were saying.
Fifteen minutes passed quickly. However, Yang Wu and Skinny Monkey seemed to have forgotten the soldier's warning. They were still soaking in the pool. The powerful Purification Pool finally invaded their bodies.
First was the skinny monkey. He had the bloodline of the Primordial Monkey Clan, and the purifying power stirred up his bloodline. However, his bloodline resisted at the first moment. This caused the skinny monkey's body to quietly transform. Many monkey hairs covered his body, and his eyes turned scarlet.
This time, Skinny Monkey didn't go completely berserk. Instead, he clearly felt the changes in himself. His mind was inexplicably filled with fragmented memories. He muttered to himself, "How did I become like this? Am I a daemon? "
Skinny Monkey forced himself to calm down. He kept suppressing his bloodline, but the Purification Pool constantly stimulated his bloodline. He couldn't suppress it. At the same time, the Purification Pool wasn't very powerful. It wasn't able to dissolve his bloodline. It was because of this that Skinny Monkey's mind remained clear. That was how he awakened his original memories.
Not far away, Yang Wu's situation was different. Yang Wu's bloodline was stimulated as well. A terrifying battle intent surged out. The invincible presence swept out in all directions, causing the soldiers on the shore to shiver. They felt like the temperature was rapidly dropping. They couldn't help but move away.
Yang Wu's bloodline boiled. A few terrifying battle scenes flashed through his Divine Hall. There were birds flying across a thousand-kilometer-long mountain range. There were beasts trampling mountains and rivers. There were also experts in the air facing off against all sorts of vicious creatures. The domineering power was enough to destroy the world. It was terrifyingly powerful.
At the same time, his Death Dao Flower was affected by the Purification Pool's power. It kept shrinking, making the flower bud more condensed.
The Purification Pool's power would have wiped out the will of an ordinary warrior, but to Yang Wu and Skinny Monkey, it could only awaken their bloodline talents. It couldn't wear away their will.
The old general who had been guarding the Purification Pool noticed the commotion in the Purification Pool.
The old general had lost an arm. He sat in the air above the valley. It was as if he had merged with everything around him. No one noticed him. He was the One-Armed War King, Zuo Yidao, who had once killed the Barbarians and frightened them.
Zuo Yidao had been fighting for 50 years. When he was young, he had lost an arm on the battlefield. Everyone thought he would be crippled. But he used his powerful will to walk the path of a one-armed blade. In the end, he became a King. Unfortunately, his body's weakness prevented him from going any further. So, 15 years ago, he chose to guard the Purification Pool. He wouldn't fight unless it was absolutely necessary.
"The lifeforce of these two kids is shocking. Do they have powerful mutant blood in their bodies?" Zuo Yidao said to himself with a look of confusion.
He had long heard of some secret rumors. There were some freakish geniuses in the Transcendental World's national factions. They were born with the blood of the Aboriginals, allowing them to possess all sorts of extraordinary cultivation and combat talents. And Yang Wu and the skinny monkey-like duo in front of him seemed to possess such characteristics.
"Let me give them a try!" Zuo Yidao thought for a moment. He used his hands to guide the array. He isolated everything in the Purification Pool. His King presence formed a handprint that pressed down on the two people in the pool.
