Chapter 804: Entering the Pool

Ye Yuan felt a blur before his eyes, and found himself in a canyon.

"Such strong Yuan power! Even though I haven't seen the Ancient Desolate Liyuan Pool, I can already sense its location!" Yang Xiao exclaimed noisily as soon as he entered.

But the others also showed expressions of awe, clearly astonished by the surging Yuan power fluctuations.

Unable to contain their excitement, everyone walked toward the direction from which the Yuan power emanated.

Before long, a pool a hundred zhang in diameter appeared before their eyes.

The pool water was dark red, and the Yuan power fluctuations emanating from it made the holy sons and quasi-holy sons tremble inwardly.

The Yuan power fluctuations from the pool were so intense that they were frightening.

"Gulp, is this the Ancient Desolate Liyuan Pool? I always refused to admire our predecessors, but now that I'm here, I realize how hard it is to enter the second level!" Nalan Hong said solemnly.

These holy sons were all proud and arrogant, each thinking that once they entered the Ancient Desolate Liyuan Pool, they would surely reach the third level.

But sensing the Yuan power fluctuations of the pool before her, Nalan Chu knew she had been too naive.

Those who could enter the Ancient Desolate Liyuan Pool were all prodigies of heaven.

Yet the grade of the Chixia Holy Land had been lowered time and again, proving that the Ancient Desolate Liyuan Pool was not easy to deal with.

"Nalan Hong, stop wasting time! We only have five days. If you're not going in, I am!"

Yang Xiao had no such concerns; he leaped directly into the pool.

But though Yang Xiao seemed casual, he clearly didn't dare jump too far, only about five zhang out.

The others on the shore tensed up, their eyes fixed on Yang Xiao.

Yang Xiao initially appeared carefree, but as soon as he touched the water, everyone could clearly see his body stiffen, as if frozen solid.

Then, Yang Xiao's body trembled violently, and his expression turned extremely pained.

The others were alarmed. They all knew Yang Xiao's abilities; if he was in such pain at five zhang, this opportunity was clearly not easy to obtain.

Nalan Hong and Pei Kun exchanged glances, seeming to reach some tacit understanding. They leaped simultaneously, landing six zhang into the pool.

"Ye Yuan, aren't you going to test the waters?" Zhang Tianyi suddenly spoke.

Ye Yuan smiled. "You go ahead first. This pool water seems quite formidable. My cultivation level is a bit low, so I need to make some preparations."

Zhang Tianyi glanced at Ye Yuan, then leaped into the pool.

After that, Han Feng cupped his hands toward Ye Yuan and also jumped in.

Ye Yuan's face was calm, but his heart was far from peaceful.

Approaching the Ancient Desolate Liyuan Pool, Ye Yuan actually felt a mysterious force calling to him from the depths of the pool!

Ye Yuan was sensing this mysterious force, so he didn't rush into the water.

But after sensing for a long time, he still couldn't figure out what this mysterious force was.

At that moment, Yang Xiao, who had entered the water first, began to break through!

After soaking in the pool for just a short while, he directly broke through his bottleneck and advanced smoothly!

The powerful energy contained in the pool water was truly immediate in its effect.

After another quarter of an hour, Nalan Chu and Pei Kun both advanced!

Han Feng and Zhang Tianyi were not to be outdone, also breaking through their realms quickly.

"Haha, how refreshing! This instant alone is worth years of bitter cultivation! The Ancient Desolate Liyuan Pool truly lives up to its reputation!" Yang Xiao laughed heartily.

The others didn't speak, but their faces were filled with excitement.

Clearly, the power of the Ancient Desolate Liyuan Pool far exceeded their imagination.

Ye Yuan found that he couldn't seem to sense the mysterious force, so he simply jumped into the pool.

As soon as he entered the water, a bone-chilling cold instantly swept through his entire body, numbing every nerve and rendering him immobile.

"On the shore, I couldn't feel the water temperature, but once in the water, it's so bitterly cold." Ye Yuan was astonished.

However, Ye Yuan's physical body was extremely powerful. After the initial numbness, he quickly adapted.

At this moment, as his body soaked in the pool water, every pore seemed to open, bringing an indescribable comfort.

Powerful Yuan power drilled into his body through every pore, rapidly elevating his cultivation.

Ye Yuan unceremoniously absorbed the vast Yuan power in the pool, beginning to consolidate his realm in preparation for breaking through to the Immeasurable Realm.

One step, two steps, three steps...

Ye Yuan advanced step by step. With each step forward, the Yuan power in the pool grew stronger.

The tempering of the pool water not only affected his Yuan power but also greatly strengthened his physical body.

Ye Yuan reveled in the tempering of the pool water, drawing closer and closer to the Immeasurable Realm.

In the blink of an eye, a day and a night passed.

The expressions on the faces of the several geniuses grew increasingly twisted.

After a day, Han Feng and Zhang Tianyi had each advanced only two zhang, stopping at seven zhang.

The three holy sons of the Heavenly Enlightenment Realm were neck and neck, stopping at nine zhang!

It was worth noting that the previous holy master, Tu You, had only entered the second layer.

This time, all three of them had achieved that goal!

"Ah...!"

Suddenly, Pei Kun let out a pained cry and leaped out of the water back to the shore!

On the shore, Pei Kun's expression was grim.

He never expected to be the first eliminated.

Scanning the pool, Yang Xiao and Nalan Hong were at roughly the same distance, while Zhang Tianyi and Han Feng were also at the same distance.

Looking at Ye Yuan, he was slightly surprised.

Ye Yuan was still at five zhang.

Han Feng and Zhang Tianyi, whom Ye Yuan had defeated, had both reached seven zhang. How could Ye Yuan only be at five zhang?

Just then, Han Feng suddenly let out a long roar and took another step forward!

That single step brought him into the second layer, reaching eight zhang!

Pei Kun's expression changed. He hadn't expected an Immeasurable Realm martial artist to reach the second layer.

"Splash..."

Unwilling to accept defeat, Pei Kun leaped back into the pool.

This time, he advanced smoothly, going straight to nine zhang.

But at that moment, Pei Kun's face showed extreme pain, and he finally couldn't bear it, retreating back to the shore.

"Boom!"

Pei Kun punched the ground, unwilling. "Is my potential really only this much?"
