Theoretically, the energy tide of the Blood Pool can only exist for five days, but this does not mean that everyone can cultivate in the Blood Pool for five days.
Just like Ye Xinyue and Han Yue last time, they only lasted for less than two days before running away.
This was because Ye Chen used his strange fire to purify the fire poison in their energy.
Although the three women are much stronger than before, apart from Ye Xinyue who possesses the Fallen Heart Flame, Han Yue and Nalan Yanran dare not absorb this energy so recklessly.
Three days later, Nalan Yanran, the weakest among them, woke up first. Then, feeling the abundant battle qi in her meridians and the burning pain from her dantian, she had no choice but to come out of the blood pool.
Seeing that she was the only one among the eight who couldn't hold on any longer, and even Xiao Yan, whom she had always looked down on, was still persevering, the girl felt a sense of defeat creeping into her heart.
Indeed, how ridiculous was the arrogance I had back in the Gama Empire? Here, I could probably easily find thousands of people like myself.
Fortunately, after nearly two years of following the monstrous genius Ye Xinyue, Nalan Yanran felt that her resilience had greatly increased. So, after only a moment, her emotions had recovered, and she sat cross-legged on the spot to stabilize her Dou Qi realm, which had broken through to the sixth-star Dou Huang level...
He broke through from a three-star Dou Huang to a six-star Dou Huang in just two days. Such a terrifying speed of improvement demonstrates the powerful effects of the Heavenly Mountain Blood Pool.
No wonder it attracts hundreds of thousands of geniuses from the entire Northern Region of Central State to compete for just a few spots...
Another day passed, and this time three people woke up and left the blood pool. Judging from the powerful aura emanating from them, it was clear that all three had gained a great deal.
However, unlike Nalan Yanran, they didn't need to wait for their companions, so they hurriedly went down the mountain.
To Nalan Yanran's surprise, Xiao Yan was still not among the three...
Gazing at the black figure amidst the crimson mist, Nalan Yanran was completely lost in thought.
So, the boy I used to look down on was actually so much more talented than me?
Unfortunately, Nalan Yanran was unaware of the immense pain the young man in black was enduring, a pain he had been enduring for four days...
"No, if this continues, the fire poison in this energy will probably burn my meridians to a crisp, and then I'll really be ruined!"
Feeling the throbbing pain within his body, Xiao Yan's forehead was already covered in sweat.
If an ordinary person's body were filled with fire poison like Xiao Yan's, even if they could endure the excruciating pain, they might ultimately be crippled...
Xiao Yan dared to do this because the cultivation technique he was practicing at the time could separate and condense the toxicity and pure fire attribute energy in these fire poisons during the cultivation process, thereby obtaining a poison fire that was even more powerful than beast fire, and it could also greatly enhance the poison gas. It could be said to be the best of both worlds!
This was precisely the alternative cultivation method for the Burning Technique that Xiao Xun'er had carefully chosen for him before she left!
Finally, realizing he had reached his limit, Xiao Yan jumped out of the blood pool without hesitation. Ignoring his surroundings, he sat cross-legged and began refining the fire poison...
……
……
Two more days have passed.
At this moment, the energy tide at the top of Tianshan Mountain began to slowly dissipate, and the crimson energy in the blood pool was also rapidly decreasing due to the lack of replenishment.
Only Ye Xinyue remained in the original blood pool. Even Han Yue had emerged half a day earlier and successfully stabilized her cultivation at the nine-star Dou Huang level...
"Why isn't she out yet? I hope something's happened to Sister Xinyue." Nalan Yanran looked at Han Yue beside her with some concern.
However, compared to her, Han Yue, who already had experience, was very calm, and even had a happy smile in her eyes.
"Don't worry, judging from Xinyue's condition, she's probably not far from breaking through to the Dou Zong realm..."
"Can a Dou Zong really break through?" Even Xiao Yan, who had finished refining the fire poison, couldn't help but ask this question.
Although the outside world speaks of the Heavenly Mountain Blood Pool in incredible terms, and he himself has experienced it firsthand, none of the many people who left before him have broken through to the Dou Zong level...
This even includes Tang Ying and Mu Qingluan, who are both nine-star Dou Huangs!
Therefore, Xiao Yan didn't quite believe the claim that the Heavenly Mountain Blood Pool could help people break through to the Dou Zong realm.
Han Yue glanced at him indifferently and said calmly, "Of course, but it depends on the person..."
okay.
Xiao Yan pretended that he didn't understand.
However, he was still very grateful to Ye Xinyue at this moment and hoped that she could really achieve a breakthrough.
After all, if Xiao Yan were to rely solely on his own cultivation, it would probably take him at least two years to make such a leap from a three-star Dou Huang to the current seven-star Dou Huang.
Moreover, he still has a considerable amount of fire poison in his body. If he can completely refine it, not only will the poisonous fire within him become stronger, but his cultivation level may even increase by another star...
At that time, he himself will be only one step away from becoming a Dou Zong!
Finally, Ye Xinyue didn't keep the three of them waiting for too long. A burst of energy roared in the sky, and then the energy in this world began to fluctuate violently.
"Is this... really about to break through?!" The powerful members of the Gold-Eating Rat Clan, who were the landlords, immediately understood what was happening when they saw this scene.
This is a strange phenomenon that only occurs when someone breaks through to the Dou Zong realm by using the blood pool of Tianshan. Over the years, they have seen it a few times.
With a clear whistle, Ye Xinyue's figure shot directly into the sky, her aura surging and almost enveloping the entire mountain peak...
A moment later, the aura gradually subsided, and then Xiao Yan and the other two saw a girl walking towards them step by step through the void.
"Soaring through the air, that's the mark of a Dou Zong powerhouse!" Nalan Yanran excitedly grasped Han Yue's hand beside her.
The latter's originally elegant face was now radiant with a bright smile...
"I'm sorry to have kept you waiting..." The girl with a bright smile lightly touched the ground with her toes, looked at the mountain peak where only four people remained, and said apologetically.
"However, all that effort wasn't in vain; I've finally broken through to the Dou Zong realm..."
Chapter 351 Resolving the Crisis
After leaving the Tianmu Mountains, Ye Xinyue and the others originally thought they could leave directly.
What they didn't expect was that the area outside Tianmu Mountain was even more bustling than before...
"So you've finally come out?" The Yellow Spring Venerable, dressed in black, looked at the last four people descending the mountain, his whole demeanor turning sinister.
He had already investigated all the people who had come down the mountain before, and the possibility of them being the murderer was very small. Even Tang Ying and Mu Qingluan had been called in for questioning...
If it weren't for the fact that Sword Venerable and Wind Venerable had arrived here in advance, Yellow Spring Venerable might have actually used some methods against them.
After all, there are only a handful of people capable of killing Wang Chen.
However, although no definite suspect was found, Venerable Huangquan learned from these people that a powerful stranger was involved in the blood pool competition.
The unfamiliar Dou Zun opposite him made him both wary and vaguely suspicious.
"If it really was that woman who killed Chen'er, then I will definitely make her pay the price. It concerns the reputation of my Yellow Springs Pavilion, so even if she has to pay a price, it doesn't matter..."
Thinking of this, Venerable Huangquan's murderous intent intensified.
Of course, in terms of pure strength, Venerable Huangquan is even weaker than Venerable Tianhuo.
But don't forget that this is the Northern Region of Central Continent. When Venerable Huangquan came to participate in the Four Pavilions Conference, he also brought many powerful figures from Huangquan Pavilion with him...
He only needs to hold off the Dou Zun on the other side, and the remaining Dou Huang level juniors can be easily defeated or even killed by the Huang Quan Pavilion's experts!
This is also an important reason why Venerable Huangquan is so fearless.
The moment Ye Xinyue and her three companions stepped out of the mountains, almost everyone in the room turned their attention to them. Even though all four were quite composed, they were stunned by the intense attention they were receiving.
Swish!
In a flash, Venerable Heavenly Fire appeared beside Ye Xinyue and the other two women.
Tianhuo Venerable glanced casually at Xiao Yan beside him, merely frowning slightly before ignoring him and directly transmitting his voice to Ye Xinyue, asking, "Xinyue, something's not right. During the previous competition for spots, did you kill a Yellow Springs Pavilion disciple named Wang Chen?"
Ye Xinyue was stunned for a moment, somewhat unexpected. Could it be that such a grand scene was simply because she had killed a disciple of the Yellow Springs Pavilion?
"Yes, that person tried to steal our spirit fox using tricks, but I killed him in the end..." Ye Xinyue didn't hide anything and told the whole story.
"Senior Tianhuo, is this situation something the Yellow Springs Pavilion has caused?"
Ye Xinyue looked somewhat incredulous. She probably thought that the Yellow Springs Pavilion alone didn't have such great power.
"Don't worry, most of them here are just a bunch of onlookers..."
"However, we still need to be careful later. Many experts have come from the Yellow Springs Pavilion. I don't think that old ghost of the Yellow Springs will let this go so easily."
Ye Xinyue nodded, but didn't seem to care too much.
Because she knew very well that once her identity was revealed, even if the Yellow Springs Pavilion still wouldn't give up, she could still use incentives to lure the powerful figures around her to protect her...
After all, given the Ye family's current reputation, countless people would likely want to associate themselves with her in such a public setting.
relationship.
However, to the surprise of Ye Xinyue, Venerable Tianhuo, and the others, Xiao Yan, who had been silent all along, suddenly spoke up at this moment...
"Senior Sister Ye, it seems that the Yellow Springs Pavilion won't let this go this time. They outnumber us and we're likely to suffer losses..."
Xiao Yan's deliberately lowered voice rang in their ears.
Ye Xinyue's expression shifted, but instead of revealing her own plan, she asked in return, "Then do you have a solution?"
Xiao Yan didn't feign mystery, but said directly, "Besides Venerable Huangquan, I've also discovered Venerable Jian and Venerable Feng from the Four Directions Pavilion here. My teacher and Venerable Feng are old friends. I can reveal my identity and try to get Venerable Feng's help..."
"If Venerable Feng can stand on our side, then with two Dou Zun experts on our side, even that old monster Huang Quan wouldn't dare to turn against us rashly."
Xiao Yan's words surprised Ye Xinyue and the others.
"Your teacher is actually an old friend of Venerable Feng?"
I never expected that Xiao Yan would have such a fortuitous encounter...
Of course, Ye Xinyue did not connect Xiao Yan with Yao Zunzhe at this time. After all, Yao Zunzhe had disappeared for many years. Even though he was once famous in Zhongzhou, after so many years, many of the younger generation probably had never even heard of the name "Yao Chen".
Upon hearing Ye Xinyue's surprised and doubtful words, Xiao Yan simply smiled slightly.
"Alright, you can try. If it doesn't work, it's okay, the people from the Yellow Springs Pavilion won't dare to do anything to me..." Ye Xinyue patted his shoulder and said with a smile.
Xiao Yan nodded again, but his curiosity about Ye Xinyue's background had only grown stronger...
"What, you've finished discussing it? Then, who is the murderer who killed my disciple? You can step forward now..." Venerable Huangquan said coldly, looking at Venerable Tianhuo and the others who had finished their conversation.
As he spoke, the four experts from the Yellow Springs Pavilion stepped forward simultaneously, revealing their powerful auras unique to high-level Dou Zong.
Upon seeing this, Venerable Tianhuo's eyes flashed with flames, but he remained silent, directly blocking the imposing aura of Venerable Huangquan and the others.
Xiao Yan immediately stepped forward, took a deep breath, clasped his hands in a fist and said in a deep voice, "Venerable Feng, I would like to ask you to look at something!"
Upon hearing this, Venerable Feng was also taken aback. He hadn't expected that he, who was just watching the show, would get involved.
However, Venerable Feng was a gentle person. Although he did not recognize Xiao Yan, he did not show any anger. He smiled slightly and said, "Little guy, this is a matter between you and the Yellow Springs Pavilion. It seems to have nothing to do with me, right?"
Xiao Yan smiled, took off the ancient black ring left by Yao Lao from his finger, and then tossed it towards Venerable Feng...
If things are really as the teacher said, and the other party is truly trustworthy, then the other party will definitely help without hesitation.
Of course, if the result is different from what I expected, then my future path will probably be many times more difficult.
With a slight frown, watching the dark object fly towards him, Venerable Wind, under the watchful eyes of countless people, grabbed it and gently opened his palm...
Suddenly, a strangely familiar jet-black ring came into his view.
"This is……"
The moment his gaze fell upon the jet-black ring, the faint smile on Venerable Wind's face slowly froze...
Chapter 352 Ye Xinyue's Invitation
Upon seeing the true nature of what he held, Venerable Feng's body froze instantly, as if transformed into a statue.
His gaze was almost fixed on the ring that was deeply embedded in his soul imprint, and a terrifying storm roared and formed above the Wind Venerable's head...
This sudden turn of events stunned everyone present.
Although Venerable Wind did not say anything or show any expression at this moment, anyone could understand that a huge storm was churning in his heart!
Amidst countless astonished gazes, after a long while, Venerable Wind's body finally began to gradually soften...
His hand gripped the ring tightly, and his eyes gradually closed, as if he were lost in an eternal memory.
A soft voice, carrying an undeniable authority, slowly emanated from the room.
"No one is allowed to touch this man!"
The sound wasn't loud, but it clearly reached the ears of tens of thousands of people present.
As the sound traveled, the entire sky seemed to freeze, and a gentle breeze swept by, bringing with it a stunned expression...
"Lord Wind, what do you mean by this?!"
An angry voice rang out; it belonged to Venerable Huangquan, who was determined to take revenge.
