Chapter 941: Chapter 498: Eighth Life: Dragon Transformation Pool, Supreme Treasure Land! (Part 2)
"We don’t know the specifics either, but it should be related to the Eastern Sea Demon Race."
Upon hearing Lu Yuan’s inquiry, Luo Xin pondered for a moment and divulged all the information she knew.
"The Fierce Beast Lineage and the Eastern Sea Demon Race share the same origin, so it’s not surprising to see them join forces."
Lu Yuan said with a solemn expression.
According to Luo Xin.
The prodigy sent by the Eastern Sea Demon Race this time was named Yao Hong, merely possessing Perfect Soul Palace Cultivation, a power that posed no threat.
What was truly frightening was the thousand-year-old Ink Flood Dragon that commanded the Fierce Beast Lineage.
This flood dragon had been dwelling in the Spirit Void Cave Mansion for over a thousand years, with cultivation unfathomable, far beyond the confrontation of these young prodigies from the Human Race.
"I personally saw that Ink Flood Dragon in action from afar before. Its power already reached the Half-step Celestial Mandate Realm, and in the entire Spirit Void Cave Mansion, perhaps only the royal prodigies carrying heavy treasures could contend with it."
Luo Xin’s tone was heavy.
What does Half-step Celestial Mandate Realm mean?
One should know that the Great Li Ancestor, reputed as the strongest of the Royal Family, has just barely reached the Half-step Celestial Mandate Realm.
Although their talent is not bad, they haven’t even been cultivating for thirty years. How could they be a match for that thousand-year-old Ink Flood Dragon?
"Half-step Celestial Mandate Realm?"
Upon learning this information, Lu Yuan also fell silent.
Even though he had experience from multiple lifetimes of cultivation, in the face of absolute power disparity, this experience didn’t play much of a role.
After all, he was currently only at Perfect Soul Palace Cultivation, a whole Great Realm away from that thousand-year-old Ink Flood Dragon.
"The metamorphosis from Soul Palace Realm to Nirvana Realm is a supreme transformation from mortal to celestial. Is the chasm between mortal and celestial something so easily crossed?"
"This time, there are over a thousand prodigies of the Human Race entering the Spirit Void Cave Mansion. No matter how strong the Fierce Beast Lineage is, it might not be able to wipe out everyone at once."
"Let’s find a place to hide first. We’ll leave when the exit of the secret realm opens."
Lu Yuan shook his head, deciding to quit while he was ahead.
The Celestial Mandate Inheritance was tempting, but one needed to be alive to claim it.
With that thousand-year-old Ink Flood Dragon in charge, if they insisted on heading to the core area, it would be akin to seeking death.
"Senior Sister Luo Xin, let’s go."
Lu Yuan put away most of the fierce beasts’ corpses and planned to part ways with the others, leaving with Luo Xin and Su Rhyme.
After all, he didn’t know these prodigies at all. Saving their lives was already quite generous; how could he stay in the group and act as a volunteer bodyguard?
Moreover, the more people there are, the easier it is to become a target for the fierce beasts.
In comparison,
bringing only Luo Xin and Su Rhyme was undoubtedly much safer.
Furthermore, Lu Yuan hadn’t cut off all ties.
He left a few fierce beasts’ corpses for these prodigies, enabling them to recover faster from their injuries, which was already quite considerate.
As to whether they could survive, it all depended on their own fortune.
"Please wait, Dao Brother!"
Seeing Lu Yuan about to abandon them, the people were instantly dismayed, as anxious as ants on a hot pan.
But Lu Yuan didn’t have the habit of being a savior, ignoring their desperate pleas as he sped forward.
Luo Xin and Su Rhyme exchanged glances and hurriedly followed along.
Now that the Spirit Void Cave Mansion was fraught with danger, with a massive hunt by fierce beasts, staying beside Lu Yuan was undoubtedly the safest option.
Just as Lu Yuan, along with Luo Xin and Su Rhyme, was about to disappear from the crowd’s sight,
"Dao Brother Lu Yuan, I know the location of the Dragon Transformation Pool!"
A man in a blue robe gritted his teeth and suddenly shouted out.
"Swish!"
Upon hearing this news, Lu Yuan halted his steps and swiftly returned, appearing in front of the blue-robed man in an instant.
"You should know the consequences of deceiving me."
Lu Yuan stared at the blue-robed man. Although his tone was calm, the killing intent in his words made the man shiver.
"Dao Brother Lu Yuan, rest assured, this news is unequivocally true. I, Lin Hao, can vouch for it with my life."
The blue-robed man’s expression was tense, trying hardly to control his trembling voice.
Because he was well aware.
The young man before him, despite appearing harmless, was in fact a true and undeniable Godslayer.
"Take me there. If the news is genuine, I can ensure your safe return to the outside world."
Lu Yuan carefully scrutinized the blue-robed man, confirming his expression wasn’t deceitful before speaking slowly.
"The Dragon Transformation Pool? I didn’t expect even such a treasure land to emerge!"
Luo Xin and Su Rhyme’s pupils shook upon hearing this news, causing a storm of waves in their hearts.
According to what they knew.
The Dragon Transformation Pool was a supreme treasure land within the Spirit Void Cave Mansion, painstakingly built by Master Lingxu at great cost to cultivate direct lineage disciples.
This treasure pool was guarded by numerous arrays, capable of continually drawing Earth Vein Spirit Marrow from the depths of the earth, gradually condensing into Spirit Liquid.
It typically required over a hundred years to accumulate even a small pool of Spirit Liquid.
And it’s called the Dragon Transformation Pool because this Spirit Liquid possesses purifying marrow, capable of reshaping a Martial Artist’s aptitude and constitution.
It holds the power to defy fate and achieve rebirth.
Its preciousness cannot be measured in money.
The Great Li Ancestor accidentally entered the Dragon Transformation Pool by chance, which allowed him to soar and become the strongest in Great Li.
If Lu Yuan could obtain these Dragon Transformation Spirit Liquids, he would surely enter the Nirvana Realm in a short time.
By then, his power would advance by leaps and bounds, reaching an unimaginable height!
"The Dragon Transformation Pool is guarded by a Space Array, frequently shifting its location; even that thousand-year-old Ink Flood Dragon doesn’t know where it is. How did you find it?"
Luo Xin skeptically asked.
"There are too many eyes here. Let’s talk elsewhere."
Noticing the fervent gazes cast by the crowd, Lu Yuan frowned.
"Dao Brother Lu Yuan, this is my younger sister Lin Xuan. Could you take her with us?"
The blue-robed man introduced a frail young girl to Lu Yuan, with a hint of plea in his tone.
The young girl had an ashen complexion, like a frightened kitten, her whole body curling behind the blue-robed man, only daring to peek at Lu Yuan and the others with half her face.
Lu Yuan glanced at the frail young girl, his expression subtly shifting, somewhat surprised.
With his experience, he could easily discern that despite her frail health, the girl possessed terrifying talent.
She had reached the late stage of the Soul Palace Realm just at adulthood, even two or three years younger than Lu Yuan.
But this girl seemed to have some congenital defect, resulting in a flawed Divine Soul. Although she was a Soul Palace Martial Artist, her body’s condition was worse than a mortal’s.
"You’re planning to use the Dragon Transformation Spirit Liquid to compensate for her innate flaws?"
Lu Yuan pondered, finally believing Lin Hao’s previous words.
The Spirit Void Cave Mansion was perilous, but Lin Hao risked his life to bring this young girl along, showing he was confident about curing her ailment.
"Dao Brother, your eyes are sharp, indeed nothing escapes you."
Lin Hao bowed, a bitter smile on his face.
"Alright, this place is not safe for long. It’s time we departed."
Without further ado, Lu Yuan led Luo Xin and the others away from there.
As the crowd watched their departing backs, their expressions flickered with uncertainty, eventually dismissing any ideas they had in mind.
No words were exchanged on the way.
Lu Yuan traveled several hundred miles before ensuring no one followed him, then finally halted and turned to Lin Hao.
"Now you can speak."
"Perhaps Dao Brother Lu Yuan can see that Xuan’Er is exceptionally talented, even slightly superior to many royal prodigies."
"But she’s had a defective Divine Soul since childhood, leaving her frail with only a few years of life left."
Lin Hao made no secret, divulging the entire story to Lu Yuan.
"Our Lin Family scoured ancient texts and remedies to cure her, to no avail."
"Fortunately, persistence pays off. Though we couldn’t find a way to repair Xuan’Er’s Divine Soul,"
"By a fortunate twist of fate, we inadvertently obtained some information related to the Dragon Transformation Pool from an incomplete Jade Talisman!"
