Ancestor Xu Elder paused for a moment before waving his hand and saying, "Yue Songyang, protect Wei Chen. He is our hope in the formation aspect of the Temple of Martial Arts. In the entire Southern Ming Divine Domain, there is no Formation Master. Wei Chen's importance is more precious than your life. Do you understand?"
Ancestor Xu Elder placed a heavy burden on Wei Chen, who felt the weight of the expectation but had no choice but to accept it.
With Ancestor Xu Elder's words, Qian Youshi had nothing more to say, and it was decided that Yue Songyang, Deputy Hall Master, would escort Wei Chen to the Azure Green Pool to set up the formation.
Under the cover of night, Wei Chen and Yue Songyang quietly approached the Azure Green Pool without alarming anyone.
"Wei Chen, the water pressure down there will be immense. You must act according to your abilities. If you can't hold on, come back immediately. Your life is far more important than setting up the formation," Yue Songyang cautioned before they entered the water, worried that Wei Chen might push himself too hard. In reality, Wei Chen was more astute than anyone else; how much benefit the Temple of Martial Arts could gain was not his primary concern. He was willing to expend great effort to set up the formation mainly because he wanted to experiment with those two formations. Until now, both formations had only existed in his imagination, and he had no idea what kind of effect they would ultimately produce.
"I understand, but my formations need to be at least fifty miles underwater to achieve an effect that won't be noticed. If it's too shallow, the mental strength of someone at the Sixth Level Divine Realm might detect it, and all our efforts would be in vain," Wei Chen said seriously as he looked at Yue Songyang.
"Fifty miles? I have no problem with that; after all, I've been at the Sixth Level Divine Realm for a long time. Diving down seventy or eighty miles is my limit. But you... can you handle it?" Yue Songyang expressed his concern. Once they reached beneath the Azure Green Pool, he needed to remain vigilant against any potential dangers and wouldn't be able to assist Wei Chen against the water pressure.
After a brief pause, Yue Songyang added, "Wei Chen, if you can't hold on, don't force yourself. We can do without the formation; we just hope you can pass on your knowledge of formations to the Temple of Martial Arts. Everything else is unimportant."
"Heh, I won't act recklessly. Don't worry," Wei Chen replied with a carefree smile, which made Yue Songyang feel that he wasn't taking his words seriously.
"Let's go; we’re heading down."
Yue Songyang led the way into the pool without causing a single splash. Wei Chen followed closely behind, and soon they disappeared without drawing anyone's attention. The Azure Green Pool was renowned as the most forbidden place in the Southern Ming Divine Domain; ordinarily, no one would dare to "swim" there. Who would have thought that Yue Songyang from the Temple of Martial Arts and Wei Chen from Duke Sui's Residence—an emerging core disciple—would choose this critical moment to dive into the Azure Green Pool?
Inside the Azure Green Pool, there was an unmistakable sense of something amiss—a sign that a treasure was about to emerge. According to tradition, when a treasure was about to surface, it was extremely dangerous within the Azure Green Pool; no one would choose this time to enter. Typically, those seeking breakthroughs in the Azure Green Pool would wait for calm waters without rising tides before diving just a few miles deep.
Thus, when Wei Chen and Yue Songyang entered the Azure Green Pool, no one expected them to head in that direction.
Yue Songyang had been in the Azure Green Pool before and felt nothing unusual this time either. However, for Wei Chen, this was his first real experience diving into it. Following above with his mental strength felt entirely different.
After descending just a few miles deep, Wei Chen felt an immense water pressure that made him feel uncomfortable all over.
Noticing something was off with Wei Chen, Yue Songyang quickly sent a message: "Wei Chenzi, how are you doing?"
Wei Chen replied through thought transmission: "Vice Master, I feel something is wrong. It's only four or five miles deep; although the water pressure in Azure Green Pool is strong, logically speaking I should be able to withstand it without any issues. But right now it feels strange; it's as if all surrounding pressure is converging towards me—I can't escape it."
Inside the Azure Green Pool was an energy that Wei Chen couldn't comprehend; ever since he entered the water, it had been pressing down on him. As he descended deeper and deeper, that energy became denser and created a sticky sensation throughout his body—very uncomfortable indeed. It wasn't an overwhelming force but rather an unsettling feeling accompanied by fear. The unknown always brings fear—especially in Azure Green Pool where he could only rely on his mental strength for perception; all other senses were useless.
Yue Songyang sent another message: "Pressure? If it's too much for you to bear, we’ll leave immediately."
"Not for now, let's take a moment here while I figure out what that thing is," Wei Chen communicated, choosing not to dive deeper. He maintained his position, surrounded by Divine Power, sealing every pore in his body to resist the assault of the strange energy.
However, his Divine Power was limited, and that peculiar energy quickly overwhelmed it, burrowing into his body.
"Paralyze? Am I really going to expose my Stellar Power now?"
"If Deputy Hall Master Yue Songyang discovers my Stellar Power, my identity will be revealed. I absolutely cannot let that happen!"
Wei Chen felt anxious and restless, but at this point, he had no choice but to fight back; being exposed was far better than allowing that strange energy to invade his body!
"Calm down, Wei!"
Just as Wei Chen was about to unleash his Stellar Power to fend off the strange energy, a voice echoed in his ear.
"Killing God Senior? Thank goodness you finally showed up! Please tell me what I should do!" Upon hearing Killing God Senior's voice, Wei Chen felt as if he had grasped a lifeline, his spirit trembling with excitement.
Killing God Senior smiled slightly and said, "Relax and let that energy in. I never expected there would be such a place within the Endless Divine Realm! You really have incredible luck."
"What do you mean?" Wei Chen was taken aback; how could that strange energy be considered lucky?
"Let the energy enter your body, and you'll understand. You are in for a big gain; your luck is beyond words," Killing God Senior replied. Just as he finished speaking, Wei Chen's Divine Power defense was completely torn apart, and the strange energy surged into his body like a swarm.
In an instant, Wei Chen's expression brightened. He realized that the energy was flowing through his meridians on its own, converging toward his Dantian and condensing there.
"Condensing and compressing within my Dantian? What on earth is this?"
"Could this strange energy actually be a cultivation resource?"
In Wei Chen's understanding, any energy that could flow through meridians and ultimately be stored in the Dantian was considered a cultivation resource. The initial Soul Power, followed by magical power, spiritual power, and later Stellar Power and Divine Power—all were similar. As long as it could be stored in the Dantian, it posed no harm to the body.
Although he didn't know what this energy was, with Killing God Senior's assurance, Wei Chen felt at ease. Killing God Senior had seen much in his time and surely knew what this strange energy was; if Wei Chen had good luck, it meant that this strange energy was likely beneficial.
With his worries set aside, Wei Chen steadily accepted the influx of strange energy. Oddly enough, although the strange energy surged violently toward him, it wasn't "rude" or aggressive upon entering his body. They flowed in like well-trained soldiers lining up to enter Wei Chen's body. Despite the massive amount of strange energy gathering around him, they all entered his meridians in an orderly manner without causing him any harm.
Seeing Wei Chen in a daze, Deputy Hall Master Yue Songyang hurriedly transmitted a message: "Wei Chen, how are you doing?"
"I'm fine now; let's continue diving deeper," Wei Chen reassured Yue Songyang. Only then did Yue Songyang feel somewhat relieved. If anything happened to Wei Chen, it would truly be a significant loss for the Temple of Martial Arts.
“Wei Chen, are you really okay?” Yue Songyang, Deputy Hall Master, asked again. Wei Chen affirmed his condition, and only then did Yue Songyang lead the way deeper into the Azure Green Pool.
As they descended further, Wei Chen felt the purity of the strange energy increasing. It seemed that the deeper they went, the more refined the energy became, filling Wei Chen with a chilling sensation throughout his body.
That chilling feeling was not uncomfortable; rather, it was pleasant, carrying a unique warmth that felt soothing.
“Killing God Senior, the situation is stable now. Can you tell me what this strange energy is?” As Wei Chen and Yue Songyang descended steadily without any vitality issues, he had the opportunity to inquire about the strange energy from Killing God Senior.
Killing God Senior explained, “Child, this energy is a more advanced energy system than Divine Power in the Endless Divine Realm. In the world where Bloodshed Shop is located, such energy is quite rare. Of course, when I was in that world, this kind of energy was inexhaustible.”
Regardless of whether Killing God Senior was boasting or not, Wei Chen learned an important fact from him: the strange energy had significant origins!
“Killing God Senior, could you be a bit clearer?” Wei Chen asked.
Killing God Senior chuckled, “In the world where Bloodshed Shop exists, Divine Power also exists; however, the Divine Power there is purer than that in the Endless Divine Realm. But above Divine Power, there is another type of energy known as Green Energy. That energy is truly the finest energy of the Spatial Plane where Bloodshed Shop resides. When cultivating to above Tenth Level Deity, Green Energy becomes essential.”
“The Green Energy in this Azure Green Pool is abundant. It must have been caused by some incident when Bloodshed Shop came to sweep through and dominate Endless Divine Realm years ago. At the bottom of this pool lies a cluster of Sea Palaces; those Sea Palaces are built in the style of Bloodshed Shop. Once you reach the bottom, take a good look around; you might discover something new. I can’t sense much from this distance.”
After hearing Killing God Senior's message, Wei Chen replied helplessly, “Killing God Senior, how could I possibly dive that deep? No one in the entire Endless Divine Realm can do that!”
“Heh heh, child, don’t lack confidence. Others may not be able to do it, but you certainly can.”
