Chapter 252 The Secret at the Bottom of the Pond

"Ah Xuan, don't hesitate later. If you get caught in the fire on the water, it will be even more troublesome."

Manager Shang warned seriously.

Li Xuan looked at the blazing white sea of ​​fire on the lake and smelled the strange burnt smell filling his nose. He didn't know what to say.

He couldn't figure out why the water would catch fire.

"Is there any flammable gas in this water?"

Li Xuan tried to find a reasonable explanation himself, but he looked at the big sun in the sky and couldn't help but be silent.

"Forget it..."

He shook his head again, thinking that it was useless to think about it now.

No matter what, Li Xuan had to go down.

Strength is the root of everything.

Only when he has enough strength can he protect Princess Ankang and Yu'er under any circumstances.

"Let's practice the Turtle Breathing Technique first and get ready."

"This Sun Flame Pond is more dangerous than the Moon Shadow Pond."

"According to records, many more people died in the Sun Flame Pond."

"Ah Xuan, you must be careful."

"If things are impossible, just float up first and try again next month."

"As long as you haven't broken through to the Marrow Training Realm, you still have a chance."

Manager Shang said worriedly.

In fact, there are some things he didn't tell Li Xuan.

Being able to pass the test of the Sun Moon Yin Yang Pond will not only improve your cultivation and directly advance to the Marrow Training Realm, but also allow the body to undergo a transformation like washing the marrow and removing the hair, raising the upper limit of martial arts.

Among so many talented people, who doesn't have the potential to break through to the Marrow Training Realm?

They just want to make themselves have higher potential and go further on the road of martial arts.

The more talented people are, the more cruel they are to themselves.

As long as it is a bitterness that will benefit them, they can't wait to finish it.

This is the case with absorbing the essence of the tiger, and the same is true for soaking in the Sun Moon Yin Yang Pond.

The pursuit of a higher realm is what gives them the courage to make such an attempt.

It’s just that some people are too persistent and even risk their lives.

Manager Shang didn’t have the good luck to soak in the Sun Moon Yin Yang Pond, and he didn’t even have the chance to try.

But he had seen someone jump in and only a scalded body floated up.

Either grit your teeth and reach the bottom to complete the breakthrough.

Or repent in time and turn back.

If you use up all the strength in your body halfway, you will only have the despair of waiting for death.

Manager Shang didn’t want Li Xuan to end up like this.

In particular, he knew clearly how persistent the little black cat in his arms was in pursuing strength.

This persistence is a good thing, but also a bad thing.

This double-edged sword may hurt him at any time.

Li Xuan naturally heard Manager Shang’s concern for him.

But to be honest, Li Xuan couldn’t guarantee that he would return safely.

He had understood since when that cultivation was against the will of heaven and a gamble that would cost his life.

Unless he gave up, this gamble would last until the last moment of his life.

Li Xuan took a breath and made preparations. He meowed at Shang Zongguan and prepared to go into the water.

Shang Zongguan sighed silently, then loosened his arms, held Li Xuan in his palms, and let him jump into the "sea of ​​fire" after getting ready.

The fear of fire is deeply engraved in the instinct of every creature.

Li Xuan was the same.

But the next moment, he took a deep breath and resolutely jumped into the Sun Flame Pond.

"Plop."

As a sound rang out, Li Xuan's figure disappeared in a sea of ​​fire.

Shang Zongguan couldn't help but step forward, ignoring the heat, staring at the surface of the Sun Flame Pond.

"Ah Xuan, be careful!"

Shang Zongguan frowned and said in his heart.

…

Underwater.

Li Xuan barely opened his eyes.

The water of the Sun Flame Pond was very hot, and when parts of his body came into contact with the water, he felt a burning pain.

It felt like applying the hottest pepper in the world all over his body, which was more painful than burning.

Li Xuan looked back and saw that the white flame on his tail was slowly extinguished until it disappeared completely.

But in just a short while, a small patch of his tail had become bald.

"It's real fire, not an illusion."

There was a special odor in the water, and Li Xuan couldn't say what it smelled like.

If he had to say it, it might be similar to the smell of rotten eggs.

He couldn't smell it underwater, but he could feel it with his body, and the feeling was very special.

The water of the Sun Flame Pond was not as dark as that of the Moon Shadow Pond, and it was even very clear and transparent.

From time to time, bubbles would rise from the bottom of the pond and pass by Li Xuan's body.

Whenever this happened, he would feel a burst of boiling heat.

Li Xuan thought, perhaps these bubbles are the secret of the burning surface of the Sun-flame Pond.

But he had learned his lesson, and swam away from these bubbles, fearing that they would burn him.

But as he continued to dive, the density of the bubbles became higher and higher, gradually reaching a level where he had no time to dodge.

Every time Li Xuan was hit by a bubble, he was burned and grimaced in pain.

The chill in his body caused by taking the cold body pill would also be offset instantly.

"Meow, if only I had the chill in Ankang's body!"

The chill produced by the cold body pill was less than one-tenth of the chill in Princess Ankang's body, and the effect was extremely limited.

This made Li Xuan imagine that if he also had that chill in his body, he would not be afraid of these annoying bubbles at all.

Unlike the pressure in the Moon Shadow Pond, which increased the deeper he dived, the burning pain in the Sun-flame Pond continued to increase the deeper he dived.

Li Xuan had to constantly use the power in his body to offset the pain, otherwise he would not be able to hold on for too long if he just relied on his body to resist.

"It's only nine feet and nine feet deep, we'll get there soon."

He kept diving and headed deeper into the Sun Flame Pond.

But what Shang Zongguan said was right, the Sun Flame Pond was indeed more difficult than the Moon Shadow Pond.

Logically speaking, Li Xuan had already experienced the baptism of the Moon Shadow Pond once before, and had made considerable progress in both cultivation and physique.

But he still felt a little powerless when diving into the Sun Flame Pond.

It can be seen that the difficulty of the Sun Flame Pond is much higher than that of the Moon Shadow Pond.

"No wonder I was asked to soak in the Moon Shadow Pond first. If I had started from the Sun Flame Pond, I would have been cooked long ago."

Li Xuan thought about this and kept an eye on the consumption of his own power.

If he was not careful, he would have gone there without a chance to return.

"Maybe I can use the trick I used in Yueyin Lake again."

Li Xuan remembered the sprint and counter-sprint in Yueyin Lake. This is a tricky way to reach the bottom.

Anyway, I don't know what the principle of Sun Moon Yin Yang Lake is. As long as the body can touch the bottom of the lake, you can get benefits.

Li Xuan has such a trick, so he will not give it up.

His eyes were burned red at this time, but he still insisted on opening a little.

Because the water in the Sun Yan Lake is clear, Li Xuan can already see the bottom of the lake.

Five colors shine and shine, and they shine brightly.

The gorgeous golden light flickers at the bottom of the lake, forming a complicated pattern.

"This is..."

"Formation!?"

This is the first time that Li Xuan has seen the bottom of the Sun Moon Yin Yang Lake so clearly.

Previously in Yueyin Lake, the water was too dark and the vision was poor.

And he finally reached the bottom by a tricky way, so he didn't have the opportunity to look at the bottom of the lake carefully.

Today, at the Sun-flame Pond, he finally saw what was underneath this strange pond.

"It turns out that the magic is not the pond water, but the formation underneath?"

Li Xuan guessed, looking at the intricate and gorgeous formation at the bottom of the pond, he couldn't take his eyes off.

"Alchemy, formation, and those martial arts..."

"The methods of the human race are really endless."

Li Xuan sighed, knowing that the greatest advantage of the human race is always this creativity.

"It seems that there are still many things to learn in the future."

He smiled slightly in his heart, reminding himself to be humble at all times.

But the next moment, the burning pain interrupted his thoughts.

"Hiss——"

"It's almost over."

Li Xuan looked at the nearly two feet below and clenched his teeth tightly.

"Just a little bit more!"

The cold breath in his body has long been involved in resisting the burning pain.

It must be said that the effect of the cold breath has always been very good.

Whether it was in Yueyin Lake before or in Riyan Lake now, the effect of the icy breath far exceeded the power of blood and qi.

But this power was not enough compared to the power of blood and qi.

Although the purity of the icy breath would be improved every time after absorbing the coldness of Princess Ankang, the total amount did not change much.

However, Zhao Bugao mentioned when teaching Deng Weixian that if you want to obtain the icy breath, you can only do it at the stage of absorbing the blood of the tiger. After that, there will be no more opportunities.

But Li Xuan thought that he was a beastman, maybe a little different from the human race, and there would be other opportunities.

After thinking about going up, he must ask Shang Zongguan and Zhao Feng, and if not, go to Qianxing Pavilion to ask Ye Lao.

Li Xuan forced himself to keep thinking about other things, but his body couldn't help but tremble.

The burning pain had broken through his defense line, causing his body to react instinctively.

"It seems that distraction has its limits."

Just as Li Xuan had this thought, the pain in his body suddenly increased, causing his breathing to become disordered and he spit out some bubbles.

He looked down, at the bottom of the pool, which was only a little over ten feet away from him, and the golden formation was right in front of him.

"Huh?"

Li Xuan was in great pain, and suddenly found that there seemed to be a golden light constantly swimming in the formation below.

He looked closely, and it seemed wrong no matter how he looked.

"Why does it look like a fish?"

Although Li Xuan's eyes were burned and painful, his eyesight was still there.

There was indeed a golden-scaled fathead fish swimming leisurely in the formation.

The scales on the fish looked very beautiful, but...

"Why is this fish so fat?"
