"The Demon Pool has truly been activated…!"
Ye Qianqian’s eyes widened as she watched the blood flowing from the intense struggle between the various sects and the Sky-Eye Main God Cult into the rune grooves at the bottom of the Demon Pool. The blood activated the runes, emitting scorching heat that slowly melted the snow in the pool…
As the frozen Demon Pool was completely activated and released, it erupted like a volcano, spewing forth boiling, blood-red liquid…
"Ah…"
The next moment, the people from the various sects and the priests and believers of the Sky-Eye Main God Cult within the Demon Pool were filled with terror…
The surging heatwave made them feel as if they were engulfed in flames, scaring many into scrambling out of the pool…
"What's going on? Is this a Demon Pool or volcanic lava?"
The people from the various sects and the believers of the Sky-Eye Main God Cult stopped their fighting, staring at the completely activated and boiling Demon Pool in shock. They said with trepidation, "Are people really able to obtain mysterious powers by entering it?"
Elder Zhang Qing shook his head and said gravely, "We shouldn't take this risk!"
Zhong Yulong also frowned, surprised by how terrifying the Demon Pool was. It left them in a difficult situation.
Wan Yunting and Zhou Ruoxi, Chen Qiuyun and Master Jinyu, Zhang Xian'er and Ye Qianqian also stood on the opposite side of the Demon Pool’s edge, forming a three-way standoff with the various sects and the Sky-Eye Main God Cult. They eyed each other warily, none daring to rashly enter the Demon Pool.
After all, the Demon Pool was currently like volcanic magma, constantly emitting waves of heat. The blood-red liquid in the pool had swallowed those who had died miserably within it from the various sects and the Sky-Eye Main God Cult, appearing extremely terrifying. No one dared to go down…
This inevitably led to suspicion!
There had always been legends that the tenth generation sect leader of the Demon Cult cultivated by entering the Demon Pool, thus obtaining its mysterious power, creating the Heavenly Demon Art, and achieving invincible divine power throughout the land.
"Heavenly Demon Art!"
Zhong Yulong thought of something and suddenly flew down. He saw that on the large standing stone, around the two large characters for Demon Pool, many words were flashing with red light. It was precisely the incantation of the Heavenly Demon Art!
Upon seeing this, Wan Yunting, Zhou Ruoxi and the others, along with Master Kong Wu and Elder Zhang Qing, as well as the priests and believers of the Sky-Eye Main God Cult, all looked at the incantation of the Heavenly Demon Art recorded on the stone…
"If one enters the Demon Pool and practices the Heavenly Demon Art simultaneously, will it be successful?" the injured Xian Yun raised his eyebrows and said.
As soon as he spoke, the priest of the Sky-Eye Main God Cult’s eyes widened. He immediately memorized the incantation of the Heavenly Demon Art and then leaped into the Demon Pool…
Zhong Yulong’s old eyes widened, and Elder Zhang Qing, Master Kong Wu, and the others all turned to watch the priest of the Sky-Eye Main God Cult leap into the Demon Pool. His old face was filled with pain.
But he immediately circulated his internal energy to resist the terrifying heat within the Demon Pool, while loudly reciting the incantation of the Heavenly Demon Art…
"Not good, it seems he’s actually succeeded!"
Seeing this, Xu Guizi and Dan Yangzi couldn’t help but quickly turn to look at their sect leader Zhong Yulong…
Instantly, Elder Zhang Qing’s eyes widened in disbelief. He also memorized the incantation of the Heavenly Demon Art and jumped into the Demon Pool…
"Master…"
Xian Yun couldn't help but worry, fearing that Elder Zhang Qing and the priest would obtain the mysterious power from the Demon Pool…
As expected, Zhong Yulong’s heart grew anxious, and he leaped down…
"Wait!"
Ye Qianqian, seeing this, also wanted to jump down but was held back by Wan Yunting. She glared at the priest of the Sky-Eye Main God Cult, Zhong Yulong, and Elder Zhang Qing in the Demon Pool…
"Ah…!"
The next second, the first to let out a tragic cry was the priest. His old face was filled with terror as he shouted to the believers on the shore, "Quick, save me…"
Suddenly, the believers rushed to find a way to pull him up, but he was still swallowed by the surging, boiling blood of the Demon Pool. Like a quagmire, it slowly dragged the priest down, and he instantly disappeared into the boiling blood…
"High Priest…"
Seeing this, the believers of the Sky-Eye Main God Cult became anxious, and chaos erupted…
"Elder…!"
"Master…!"
"Sect Leader…!"
The next second, the disciples of the Kunlun Sect, and Xian Yun, Xu Yuxin, Xu Guizi, and Dan Yangzi of the Wudang Sect saw Zhong Yulong and Elder Zhang Qing in the Demon Pool also beginning to show expressions of pain, just like the priest of the Sky-Eye Main God Cult. It seemed that reciting the incantation of the Heavenly Demon Art was useless within the Demon Pool…
"Quick, pull them out…"
Seeing this, Master Kong Wu quickly instructed his disciples to extend the wooden poles they held into the Demon Pool. Zhong Yulong quickly grabbed a pole, and Xu Guizi and the others quickly pulled…
"Ah…"
Elder Zhang Qing let out a scream of fear and pain. Before he could be rescued, he was swallowed by the Demon Pool…
"Master…"
Xian Yun watched as Zhong Yulong was pulled out, but his lower half was gone. This terrified Xu Yuxin, Dan Yangzi, and the others, causing them to collapse onto the snow-covered ground…
Zhong Yulong also fell into a coma, barely clinging to life…
"This…"
Zhou Ruoxi and Zhang Xian'er were stunned. Ye Qianqian was still being held by her wrist by Wan Yunting. Looking at the tragic state of the Wudang Sect leader, she couldn't help but feel a lingering fear.
She glanced back at Wan Yunting, realizing thankfully that this guy had stopped her. Otherwise, she would have also impulsively jumped into the Demon Pool like them, dying without even knowing how.
"How exactly can one obtain the power of the Demon Pool?"
Zhou Ruoxi frowned deeply and looked at the man, her heart filled with worry.
Wan Yunting also raised an eyebrow. Could the legends be false? Was this Demon Pool simply volcanic magma?
That wasn't right either. He could clearly feel a very peculiar and dangerous aura emanating from this Demon Pool!
"Demon Sword!"
Suddenly remembering something, Wan Yunting quickly took down the Demon Sword he had been carrying on his back and opened the cloth wrapping, revealing the rusty Demon Sword…
Over there, Xian Yun, Master Kong Wu, and the others all turned to look at him, wondering what this rusty iron bar in Wan Yunting’s hand was…
"Roar…!"
Suddenly, a roar came from the passage. It was Liu Xiaohei’s voice.
Clearly, Liu Xiaohei was no match for the Main God and had been injured…
Ye Qianqian was anxious. She snatched the Demon Sword from Wan Yunting’s hand and leaped into the Demon Pool…
"You…"
Wan Yunting’s eyes widened. He could no longer stop her. Seeing Ye Qianqian holding the Demon Sword and entering the scorching, boiling blood of the Demon Pool, the painful heat made her cry out involuntarily…
However, a miraculous scene unfolded. The rusty sword in Ye Qianqian’s hand began to shed its rust. Instantly, a red light shot up into the sky, piercing through the clouds that had gathered above…
"Ah…!"
The next second, Ye Qianqian let out a sharp scream. She couldn’t control the power of the awakened Demon Sword and was instantly engulfed by the scorching red light. She exploded…
Wan Yunting immediately grabbed Zhou Ruoxi, Zhang Xian'er, Chen Qiuyun, and Master Jinyu, pulling them all back…
"What is that?"
Xian Yun looked at the Demon Sword soaring into the sky and immediately shouted to Xu Guizi and the others, "Quick, grab that sword…!"
Xu Guizi, Dan Yangzi, and Master Kong Wu all rushed forward. The believers of the Sky-Eye Main God Cult also rushed forward, wanting to snatch the Demon Sword suspended in mid-air…
"Ah…"
Dan Yangzi was the first to grasp the hilt of the Demon Sword. Instantly, the intensely hot sensation from the red-hot Demon Sword burned his entire arm to ashes…
This scene caused Xu Guizi and Master Kong Wu to retreat…
Wan Yunting’s sharp eyes narrowed, and he flew directly towards the Demon Sword…
"Yunting…!"
Seeing this, Zhou Ruoxi cried out in alarm. Chen Qiuyun and Master Jinyu looked on with worry…
Wan Yunting flew through the air, knocking away a believer. With his right hand, he grabbed the crimson hilt of the Demon Sword. The sensation of intense heat immediately transferred to his palm…
"Uh…"
Wan Yunting’s eyes widened. The internal energy in his dantian erupted, pouring all into his right hand. A surge of energy rushed out, and the Demon Sword began to tremble…
Seeing this, Wan Yunting was pulled into the air by the Demon Sword, and then rapidly plunged back into the boiling Demon Pool…
"Yunting…!"
This scene caused Zhou Ruoxi to cry out in panic. Chen Qiuyun and Master Jinyu also rushed forward, standing at the edge of the Demon Pool, looking at Wan Yunting in the pool with tense worry…
However, a bizarre scene began to unfold…
