We're practicing all martial arts, so why did you switch to easy mode?

"What, are you planning to take action against the dark clouds?"

Su Chen remained silent, but Yun Xi, who was beside him, seemed to see through his thoughts and gave a teasing smile that was quite charming.

However, Su Chen did not notice the smile. Upon hearing this, he glanced at Yun Xi but did not reply.

He did have this idea, but now was not the time to act; he needed to become stronger before he could make a move.

Or wait until Wuyun is alone. After all, He Qiu of the Holy Origin Sect is no pushover. He is one of the top martial artists among those who entered the Demon Cave. With his current strength and various methods, he may be able to kill Wuyun, but he is definitely no match for He Qiu.

“Yunxi, the demon tide has only temporarily receded and will return later, so we plan to leave the ruined city first. We have just received news from other sects that a pure yang pool several miles wide has been discovered near Demon Cave Mountain. All the other sects that received the news have rushed to Demon Cave Mountain. I am also preparing to take people there. I wonder what your plans are?” Xiang Cheng said as he walked over.

Pure Yang Pool?
Before Yunxi could speak, Su Chen's expression shifted slightly, revealing a look of joy.

The Pure Yang Pool is recorded in the secret manuals of the Zi Yang Sect and is an excellent raw material for refining Pure Yuan Pills.

As is well known, even the same Pure Yuan Pill can vary in quality, ranging from inferior to superior.

However, if pure yang water is added when refining the Pure Yuan Pill, the quality of the refined Pure Yuan Pill will be improved by at least one level.

Of course, this is not the greatest use of the Pure Yang Pool.

Its greatest use lies in the pure Yang energy it contains. With the help of this pure Yang energy, one can directly refine Pure Yuan Pills without the need for other materials. Pure Yuan Pills refined in this way are at least of superior quality.

The Pure Yuan Pills currently being refined by various sects are actually made by infusing pure Yang energy into various medicinal herbs.

With the Pure Yang Pool, such trouble is unnecessary.

As long as there is enough pure yang water, martial artists can use it to refine pure yang pills.

The Pure Essence Pill refined using this method is not only time-saving but also simple to operate.

That's why Su Chen showed such an expression after hearing about the Pure Yang Pool.

There's no other reason than that he's currently lacking Pure Yuan Pills.

If I could obtain the Pure Yang Pool, I might be able to use it to refine Pure Yuan Pills for my own cultivation.

Moreover, from Xiang Cheng's words, we know that this Pure Yang Pool is very large, and it may be able to provide him with enough pills to cultivate the remaining supernatural powers.

I just don't know if I can cultivate directly using the Pure Yang Pool.

This way, we might be able to save time and directly obtain pure yang water.

"It's not clear yet; we'll have to wait and see."

Thinking about it this way, it seems that he has no choice but to go to this Demon Cave Mountain.

After hearing this, Yunxi also became quite interested in the Pure Yang Pool, so she nodded and said, "I will go and take a look when the time comes."

She agreed to go, but didn't plan to go with Xiangcheng.

Xiangcheng understood what he meant, nodded, and didn't say anything more.

Before leaving, Xiang Cheng glanced at Su Chen.

He originally didn't intend to tell Su Chen this news, after all, news of the Pure Yang Pool is extremely precious in the entire Ten Directions World, and no one would easily leak it.

However, the commotion caused by the Pure Yang Pool within the Demon Cave this time was so astonishing that many sects became aware of it.

The news spread, and almost 90% of the sect's disciples heard that a Pure Yang Pool had appeared in Demon Cave Mountain. Even if he wanted to hide it, he couldn't.

It's better to be frank and let Su Chen hear it.

After all, even if Su Chen heard it, he might not be qualified to compete with them for the Pure Yang Pool.

He also did not intend to invite Su Chen to join.

Without the protection of the prestigious Ziyang Sect, Su Chen might not even be qualified to enter the Demon Cave Mountain.

There's no need to worry.

"Are you planning to go to Demon Cave Mountain?" Yunxi asked Su Chen shortly after Xiang Cheng left.

Su Chen didn't hide anything and nodded: "I have that idea."

"This matter is a bit strange." Suddenly, Yunxi changed the subject.

"What's strange?"

Yunxi pondered and said, "I have been to the Demon Cave a few times before, and I have also been to the Demon Cave Mountain, but I have never heard of the Pure Yang Pool, let alone found it. Its sudden appearance this time makes me suspect that it is a trap!"

This is not unfounded; some clues have been detected.

Recalling the unusual occurrence of the previous demon tide, Su Chen pondered for a moment and also felt that it was somewhat strange.

He nodded and said, "What you said makes sense. Maybe this is a conspiracy by demons. But I still plan to go and see. If there really is a Pure Yang Pool, it might be able to improve my strength."

“Just as I thought!” Yunxi smiled.

Regardless of whether there was a trap or not, she was prepared to go and check it out.

After all, the Pure Yang Pool is too precious; even a Martial Immortal might not be able to ignore it.

Besides, it's her.

The path from the Divine Power Realm to the Martial Immortal Realm requires countless resources and endless accumulation before even a sliver of opportunity can be found.

Although she had reached the pinnacle of supernatural powers, she was aware of her own situation and knew that breaking through to a higher realm was a long way off.

Therefore, when she encountered a treasure like the Pure Yang Pool, she was determined to fight for it no matter what.

"Then let's go."

Su Chen glanced around and found that most of the people had left, so he spoke to Yun Xi.

Although he invited Yunxi, he didn't wait for her at all after he finished speaking, and flew away immediately.

Upon seeing this scene, even Yunxi, who had had similar experiences before, was still stunned for a moment.

He then shook his head in annoyance and left.

……

Deep beneath the Demon Cave Mountain lies a massive spring, from which gurgles crimson water.

The spring water boiled and surged, and a huge figure could be vaguely seen swimming in it, occasionally revealing a corner of the iceberg and exposing its dark scales, making the entire underground place gloomy.

"Lord Thousand Dragon Saint." Suddenly, the ground rolled, and a lizard emerged from it. It was the lizard demon that had escaped from Su Chen's hands earlier. At this moment, its body had shrunk, and it looked like a seven or eight-year-old child.

Reaching the edge of the spring, the lizard demon knelt on the ground and respectfully called out.

Perhaps upon hearing his voice, the blood pool, which had been just a few ripples, suddenly surged into a raging torrent, exuding immense majesty.

The lizard demon was so frightened that it lay prostrate on the ground, trembling, not daring to even breathe.

Thousand Dragon Saint's body churned and blood splattered, but strangely, even under such turbulent waves, not a single drop of blood fell on the lizard demon.

"How are things going?"

At this moment, the voice of Thousand Dragon Saint came. He was a dragon who had cultivated to the Saint Realm and had been hiding underground.

Before he cultivated to the Saint Realm, he rarely appeared in the public eye. Apart from a few demons he had subdued, no one knew that a terrifying dragon lived underground.

Even the martial artists of the Ten Directions World were unaware of this matter, because when those powerful figures from the Ten Directions World swept through the Demon Cave, he did his best to hide himself, using the concealment function of the Blood Pool to successfully evade the detection of the powerful figures from the Ten Directions World, and has continued to cultivate until now.

Now, the Blood Pool is of no use to his cultivation, and he is unwilling to be trapped in the Demon Cave forever. He wants to leave the Demon Cave to gain experience elsewhere, otherwise, he will only die of old age there. However, the Demon Cave has already been occupied by warriors from the Ten Directions World. If he shows himself, he will be met with attacks from the powerful figures of the Ten Directions World.

Although he was strong, he was no match for them.

He still vividly remembered the scene when the warriors of the Ten Directions World occupied the Demon Cave, which cast a shadow over him.

Even though so many years have passed and his strength has increased many times over, he has not been able to erase this shadow.

Even if the opponent had only sent one martial artist back then, he wouldn't be able to resist them today.

As he grew stronger, he became increasingly aware of how terrifying his opponent's strength was.

Immortal level!

The opponent's strength is definitely at the Celestial level!

The immortal level among demons is actually equivalent to the martial immortal, only the names are different.

The Divine Power Realm and the Martial Immortal Realm may seem to be only one realm apart, but in reality, the difference is so small that they are worlds apart.

The gap between the pinnacle of supernatural powers and the ultimate martial arts realm is like the gap between heaven and earth.

Too many exceptionally talented individuals are trapped in this state, unable to break through it throughout their lives.

From mortal to immortal.

Four simple words, yet they cannot fully express the sorrow.

No matter how proud or talented a prodigy is, they all have to lower their arrogant heads when facing the Martial Immortal Realm.

This level of understanding will make them realize that so-called talent is actually insignificant in the face of them.

The amount of things needed to break through to the Martial Immortal Realm is immeasurable.

Even so, if you meet all the conditions, you may still be missing a tiny opportunity. And that tiny opportunity may be something you never realize in your entire life, or it may be something you realize in the blink of an eye.

If you can't grasp the meaning, you can't break through; if you can, you can break through in no time.

But the prerequisite is that your knowledge base is deep enough.

Otherwise, even if you grasp this final step, breaking through it will be as difficult as ascending to heaven.

"The matter has been settled. News of the emergence of the Pure Yang Pool has spread, and now all the major sects and forces in the Demon Cave are rushing towards Demon Cave Mountain, just waiting for the Blood Pool to open so that the master's plan can begin."

The lizard demon said excitedly, as if he could see the future, the scene of him rushing out of the demon cave with Lord Thousand Dragon Saint and killing all those who trapped them.

"it is good!"

Thousand Flood Dragon Saint let out a wild cry of joy, his voice also filled with excitement. He had waited far too long for this day.

Now we finally have a chance to leave the Demon Cave.

Not only that, before leaving, he also wanted to give those human warriors who had broken into his home a huge surprise.

Don't you like hunting demons?
Then I'll let you taste what it's like to be hunted.

You probably don't know this, but beneath the Pure Yang Pool lies not the so-called Pure Yang Water, but the true demon!

Once you are all here, I will open the Blood Pool, break the seal, and unleash the Heavenly Demon.

At that time, everyone will perish at the hands of the Heavenly Demon.

This is a Heavenly Demon, a powerful force in the myriad worlds that is in no way inferior to the demon race.

In ancient times, the battles forced countless worlds to unite against the Heavenly Demon.

Although he was later banished from the myriad worlds, the infamy of the Heavenly Demon has not faded to this day.

Moreover, after so many years of recuperation, the Heavenly Demon's strength must be even greater, far surpassing that of these so-called prodigies.

Finding this demon seal was a matter of chance.

He had examined the Blood Pool before, but had not found the Heavenly Demon Seal within it.

It wasn't until he broke through to the Saint Realm that he glimpsed a trace of the Heavenly Demon Seal from the Blood Pool.

Later, as his strength increased, he began to constantly test the waters, trying to break the seal.

At first, he thought that if the seal was broken, he might have a chance to get out.

But one day, he inadvertently sensed a terrifying aura emanating from beneath the seal, and immediately realized that what lay beneath the seal was not a passage to the outside world, but rather the sealing of some horrific creature.

After more than a century of exploration, he finally determined what the creature sealed inside was.

He is a celestial demon who strikes fear into the hearts of countless people throughout the world!
When he first heard the news, he was so frightened that he couldn't sleep for several days.

His bloodline inheritance contained information about the Heavenly Demon, describing its terrifying nature almost ingrained in his very bones.

Naturally, this also affected him, making him live in fear for a period of time afterward.

He was terrified that the seal would be broken and he would die without a burial place.

In the time that followed, they worked tirelessly to reinforce the seal. Although their power was weak, they believed they could seal the Heavenly Demon for a few more years.

More than a century later, he never had such thoughts again.

Instead, he felt that rather than living in this dark and gloomy place every day, it would be better to release the Heavenly Demons, use them to escape the Demon Cave, and go out into the outside world to enjoy life.

Once the thought popped into my head, I couldn't stop it.

In the end, he simply abandoned the reinforcement and began to destroy instead.

During this time, he was also secretly accumulating power. The lizard demon was one of his subordinates during this period, with the purpose of acting on his behalf.

Today, everything is ready except for the final push.

He only needs to wait for the disciples of those sects to arrive so that he can break the seal and release the Heavenly Demon.

That will be the day he leaves the Demon Cave!
"Lizard Demon, keep a close eye on the situation outside, and let me know immediately if anything happens!"

After giving a word of advice, Thousand Flood Dragon Saint disappeared into the blood pool. He still had some minor matters to resolve, and he wanted to take care of them now to avoid any mistakes later. Thousands of years of waiting had passed, and he didn't want any problems to arise that would affect him.

"Yes!"

Upon hearing this, the lizard demon burrowed into the ground and vanished without a trace.

at the same time.

Martial artists have already arrived outside Demon Cave Mountain.

Seeing the soaring rays of light, all the arriving martial artists were extremely excited.

The pure yang energy they sensed within the rosy light further convinced them that this was indeed the Pure Yang Pool.

Meanwhile, thousands of miles away, Su Chen and Yun Xi were also rushing towards Demon Cave Mountain.

Suddenly, the two heard a noise coming from not far away.

"It's Xiangcheng and his group!"

Yunxi looked in the direction of the sound and soon saw Xiangcheng and his group fighting with demons.

Upon hearing this, Su Chen's eyes flickered, and he immediately said, "Let's go take a look!" (End of Chapter)
