261: Dragon Heart Flame
Xiao You couldn't help but exclaim, "immortal slaying sword? What a domineering name!"
Lu Xingchen chuckled, "Don't worry about whether the name is domineering or not. Now that those three have been dealt with, it's time for us to enjoy the Dragon Power baptism!"
Xiao You nodded heavily and said with a smile, "The Dragon Power concentration in the center of the Dragon Pool is dozens of times that of the outside world. In these ten days, my strength will definitely increase significantly!"
With that, Lu Xingchen and Xiao You no longer paid attention to the others. They spread their Dou Qi Wings and flew towards the center of the Dragon Pool.
The others dared not voice any objections and dispersed, each searching for a suitable spot.
Upon reaching the center of the Dragon Pool, Lu Xingchen and Xiao You separated, sat cross-legged in the water, and began to absorb the Dragon Power.
However, after just five minutes, he felt something unusual.
The Dragon Power was normal, but the Fused Spirit Fire within his body began to stir restlessly, surging in all directions.
Lu Xingchen was not surprised but rather pleased.
Such an unusual movement from the Fused Spirit Fire indicated that there must be a Spirit Fire nearby that could contend with it, making the Fused Spirit Fire feel threatened.
Not only could he absorb Dragon Power, but he could also find another Spirit Fire—it was an absolute bargain!
Lu Xingchen immediately exited his Cultivation state and, guided by the Fused Spirit Fire within his body, dived deeper into the Dragon Pool.
"Word Spirit, Dustless Land!"
Lu Xingchen used another Word Spirit.
The function of "Dustless Land" is to form a Domain around the body, blocking external objects from entering; it is a defensive Word Spirit.
By using "Dustless Land" at this moment, Lu Xingchen could block the pressure of the pool water, creating an independent space around his body.
The Dragon Pool was very deep. Lu Xingchen descended over a thousand meters before reaching the bottom of the Dragon Pool.
Immediately, he saw the Spirit Fire he had been longing for.
It was a golden-yellow flame, burning fiercely in the Dragon Power-filled pool water, giving off a peculiar sensation.
Lu Xingchen speculated that this Spirit Fire must have formed under the nourishment of a large amount of Dragon Power.
Let's call it Dragon Heart Flame!
Lu Xingchen approached the Dragon Heart Flame, and under the effect of "Dustless Land," the pool water around the Dragon Heart Flame was pushed away.
Lu Xingchen held it in his hand, feeling the powerful Dragon Power and restless vitality.
The quality of this Dragon Heart Flame was even slightly higher than Glazed Pure Fire; it was the most powerful Spirit Fire he had encountered in his Cultivation to date!
After preparing, Lu Xingchen absorbed the Dragon Heart Flame into his body and activated the "Burning Art" to slowly refine it.
This refinement was relatively smooth; he did not encounter the previous problems.
Although the Dragon Heart Flame was slightly superior in quality to Glazed Pure Fire, the difference was not too great, making it easy to balance the power of the two Spirit Fires.
But even so, Lu Xingchen spent a great deal of time.
It took him a full five days to completely absorb and Fuse the Dragon Heart Flame.
The quality of the Fused Spirit Fire advanced another level, and the rank of "Burning Art" also rose from earth rank high grade to low-grade heaven rank.
It could be said that Lu Xingchen, by his own power, created a Heaven Rank Martial Skill!
By the time Lu Xingchen left the bottom of the pool and returned to the surface, it was already the morning of the sixth day.
He felt a little nervous.
Xiao You had said that the Dragon Pool would only be open for ten days. He had already spent half that time absorbing the Dragon Heart Flame. Would he be able to absorb and refine enough Dragon Power in the remaining time?
But very quickly, Lu Xingchen was pleasantly surprised to find that his speed of absorbing and refining Dragon Power was several times faster than before, which was incredibly satisfying!
However, upon closer thought, this was also normal.
The Dragon Heart Flame was originally condensed from Dragon Power, so absorbing it naturally accelerated his Dragon Power Cultivation speed.
Over the next five days, Lu Xingchen remained immersed in the Dragon Pool, absorbing Dragon Power.
After all, the Dragon Pool contained the accumulation of Dragon Clan masters for over a hundred years. Even though Lu Xingchen absorbed it desperately, he couldn't drain the Dragon Pool dry.
However, he also absorbed enough Dragon Power. This Dragon Power would continuously nourish his Physical Body, increase his Physical Body strength, and actively protect him in battle.
Lu Xingchen could confirm that in just these five days, the Dragon Power concentration in his body had already surpassed You Potian.
A single Opportunity gained was equivalent to ten years of You Potian's arduous Cultivation.
If Lu Xingchen were to fight You Potian now, he was confident that even without using the immortal slaying sword, he could easily defeat You Potian.
Five days passed quickly, and Xiao You's calm and clear voice echoed within the Dragon Pool.
"All you Dragon Clan Prodigies, time is up. Please leave the Dragon Pool! The next time the Dragon Pool opens will be ten years from now. It needs time to recuperate; we can't keep exploiting it."
Lu Xingchen and Xiao You broke through the water and flew side by side towards the outside of the Dragon Pool.
Xiao You stared intently at Lu Xingchen and said in a deep voice, "Xingchen, how do I feel like you've become stronger again?"
Lu Xingchen chuckled, "Absorbing a large amount of Dragon Power from the Dragon Pool, of course I'd become stronger. Xiao You, I owe you a lot this time. If I hadn't followed you back to the Demon Domain, I wouldn't have had so much Dragon Power to absorb."
Xiao You smiled and said, "We are brothers; there's no need to be so clear-cut. Besides, this is what you deserve. If you hadn't defeated those three, you wouldn't have been able to enter the center of the Dragon Pool. I also benefited from your good fortune."
Lu Xingchen chuckled, "Then let's continue forward!"
The man and the Dragon flew out of the Dragon Pool, only to see Xiao You staring at him with a solemn expression, while You Potian stood behind her, grinding his teeth.
Lu Xingchen ignored You Potian and cupped his hands in a salute to Xiao You, saying, "Greetings, Clan Chief Xiao You. Thank you, Clan Chief Xiao You, for giving me the Opportunity to enter the Dragon Pool."
Xiao You nodded slightly and said in a deep voice, "Lu Xingchen, allowing you to enter the Dragon Pool for Cultivation was already an exception, yet you severely injured three Dragon Clan Prodigies, causing my son and the Young Clan Leaders of the other two Dragon Clans to lose their chance to enter the Dragon Pool. Shouldn't we settle this account?"
Upon hearing this, Lu Xingchen's heart sank.
Indeed, trouble might be late, but it would never be absent.
Lu Xingchen said in a deep voice, "It was You Potian and the other two Young Clan Leaders who actively provoked me, trying to expel me from the Dragon Pool. I was merely acting in self-defense. Moreover, You Potian, as a member of the Netherworld Clan, actually betrayed his own kind and helped outsiders deal with me. Shouldn't Clan Chief Xiao You settle this account?"
Upon hearing this, Xiao You frowned, then smiled and said, "What a sharp-tongued young man, truly worthy of being the Human Race War God. However, I am no longer interested in distinguishing right from wrong, nor am I very concerned about the lives of the Young Clan Leaders of the other two Dragon Clans."
"I only know that you injured my son and ruined his Opportunity to Cultivate in the Dragon Pool. No matter what, you must give me an explanation!"
Hearing this, You Potian, who was standing behind Xiao You, looked at Lu Xingchen with a triumphant expression, almost giving him the middle finger.
What if you are the Human Race War God?
In our Demon Domain, you still have to listen to my mother!
