A cluster of golden light lingered at the bottom of the dark Pill River and itappeared extremely dazzling. However, at the bottom of the Pill River, whichwas filled with a frightening pressure, only the golden light cluster wouldinfrequently explode and form gold coloured air bubbles, which emitted a slightclear sound in the process…

One could vaguely see a figure seated within the dense golden light that was acouple of hundred feet in size. The viscous Nirvana Golden Qi around his bodywas just like numerous water streams that continuously poured into that figure.A slight buzzing sound quietly appeared.

After one sight shot into the light cluster, the figure finally graduallybecome clear. Green coloured scales reflected a faint green light. However, onecould vaguely see a faint bright red colour in the gaps between those scales. Alittle bloody scent emerged from within.

Lin Dong had already sat for three days at the bottom of the Pill River.

During these three days, the pressure around him grew increasingly stronger.This situation was as though the pressure of the entire Pill River wasgradually gathered towards his direction. That endless growing pressure wassufficient to cause one to feel fearful.

In the face of this gradual increasingly terrifying pressure, the pores allover Lin Dong’s body was still gradually pressured by the great force untilblood traces flowed out from all of his pores. Although he was not seriouslywounded, the continuously increasing pressure would definitely reach quite aterrifying degree, should this continue.

At this moment, Lin Dong finally completely sensed just how great a price hemust pay if he wanted to successfully absorb all the Nirvana Golden Qi at thebottom of this Pill River…

That increasingly terrifying pressure was something that even he, who hadpracticed the Green Heaven Materialized Dragon Skill, did not dare tounderestimate…

Although the pressure was frightening, Lin Dong also reaped plenty of benefitsduring these three days. As traces of Nirvana Golden Qi entered his body, hecould clearly sense that his physical body was also gradually beingstrengthened and the tempering originated from within. Even his blood and fleshappeared to be nourished with strength…

Following the strengthening of the physical body, the Yuan Power that flowedwithin Lin Dong’s inner channels also grew increasingly powerful. It was justlike galloping river water that whistled past. Waves after waves of unusuallypowerful energy were directed to all of Lin Dong’s limbs and bones.

Lin Dong could clearly sense that the strengthening of his Yuan Power duringthese three short days, could be comparable to ten times that from his normaltraining!

This was quite a frightening number. However, it was not overly incredible.The Nirvana Golden Qi was something that was agglomerated from extremely pureNirvana Qi. The Nirvana Qi that was contained in just a little trace of it,would be able to compare with the result of the training of an ordinary personin one day…

Of course, with the strengthening of one’s physical body and Yuan Power, thething that really surprised Lin Dong was another matter that occurred.

There were quite a number of things in Lin Dong’s Dantian. The one thatoccupied the middle was a fist size dim golden coloured Yuan Dan. The Yuan Danwas slowly rotating and continuously swallowing the vast and powerful YuanPower.

Above the Yuan Dan was a large cluster of green coloured Qi. Dragon roars wascontinuously emitted from within. The aura churned and it vaguely gathered intoa rising dragon manner.

This cluster of green Qi was naturally the Heavenly Dragon Qi that Qing Zhihad left behind. It was far too wild and violent and Lin Dong was unable tocompletely absorb it. All he could do was to gradually control it through theGreen Heaven Materialized Dragon Skill and allow these Heavenly Dragon aura tonaturally merge into his body.

At the bottom of the Yuan Dan was a flowing golden light. There was anextremely mysterious ripple present within the golden light. This was the YuanSpirit Qi that he had obtained after swallowing the Yuan Spirit within Lin LangTian’s body. From a certain point of view, the Nirvana Golden Qi that Lin Dongwas currently absorbing could be considered the same type of energy.

Lin Dong clearly did not understand the utility of the Yuan Spirit Qi, whichwas not something that he could control at his level. Hence, he had alwaysplaced it within his Dantian while waiting for his strength to advance beforecontrolling it in the future.

That was Lin Dong’s plan. However, during these three days when he wasabsorbing Nirvana Golden Qi, he discovered that each time he absorbed a littleof the Nirvana Golden Qi, there would be some golden light charging into hisDantian and merging with this Yuan Spirit Qi, gradually strengthening thelatter in the process.

This event also caused Lin Dong to be a little shocked. This Yuan Spirit Qiwas after all something that belonged to that Yuan Spirit. Although Lin Dongbelieved that he had already eroded all of the consciousness within it, thisoccurrence still caused him to feel a little uneasy.

Fortunately, as the Yuan Spirit Qi grew stronger, it did not break free of hiscontrol. Only the golden light became brighter by the day. The originallysomewhat illusory golden light had also become a lot more corporeal.

Lin Dong was able to sense an unusually powerful fluctuation from within thiscluster of Yuan Spirit Qi. This kind of fluctuation had some difference fromYuan Power. However, Lin Dong could sense that this Yuan Spirit Qi appeared topossess an extremely shocking lethal force.

“I want to see just what you are thinking of doing…”

Lin Dong’s mind observed that cluster of Yuan Spirit Qi while muttering in hisheart. The interior of his body possessed the mysterious Stone Talisman and theDevouring Ancestral Symbol guarding it. Even his Dantian possessed that AncientUniverse Formation. Hence, he did not believe that this thing could misbehavein his body.

……

Time quietly flowed passed within this quiet bottom of the Pill River. In theblink of an eye, five days had already passed.

During these five days, the bottom of the Pill River continued to remainsilent while the outskirts of the Pill River grew extremely lively.

A large group of Desolate Hall Hall disciples were clustered together on theriver platform. Quite a number of people also stood on some of the platformssurrounding the Pill River. Although most of them were training, their eyeswere all gathered in one direction without any prior agreement. That place hadalready become an isolated zone with a whirlpool over it.

Their eyes were filled with surprise. This was because Lin Dong had alreadyremained at the bottom of the Pill River for five days. Moreover, he did notshow any signs of breaking out from the river…

The disciples of the Desolate Hall Hall were clearly aware of just what thistime represented. Currently, one of the four senior direct disciples of theDesolate Hall Hall, Fang Yun, was merely able to endure for four days beforebeing unable to endure the pressure and coming out of the river while receivingthe Pill River Head Immersion last year. Moreover, he was covered with freshblood and appeared exceptionally miserable when he came out.

However, the time that Lin Dong had currently endured for had already exceededthis timing. Did that not mean that Lin Dong’s mettle was even tougher thanFang Yun?

If this was really the case, it seemed that their Desolate Hall Hall was goingto produce another fearsome person. Moreover, this fearsome person had justjoined the Desolate Hall.

Chen Zhen’s and Wu Dao’s figure did not move above the Pill River. However,their eyes were locked onto the whirlpool below. Their expressions werebecoming a little serious.

“That little fellow is really able to endure…” Wu Dao fondled his beard. Hisvoice contained a joy and pleased note that could not be hidden.

“Enduring for five days. He could be considered to be above average amongstthe disciples of the four halls when it comes to receiving the Pill River HeadImmersion…” Chen Zhen also smiled. Of course, the most important thing was thatLin Dong still showed no signs of breaking out of the Pill River despite havingalready endured for five days. In other words, it meant that he could stillcontinue.

By relying on his exceptional ability, Chen Zhen was able to vaguely sense theobscure aura at the end of the whirlpool…

“This Pill River is unique. The pressure below will become increasinglyfrightening each day. Those last few days are truly the most difficult toendure through.” Wu Dao softly said.

“Let’s just wait. As long as this little fellow is able to endure for anotherthree days, his result will equal that girl Xiaoxiao…” Chen Zhen smilingly said.

Wu Dao nodded slightly. Three days might appear quite short but for Lin Dong,who was at the bottom of the Pill River, it was likely that he would have topay a hefty price.

Whether he could endure on would depend on his own ability…

……

Time passed by a day at a time under the great anticipation of the manydisciples in the Desolate Hall. The atmosphere of the Desolate Hall also soaredsuddenly as time passed. Some of the direct disciples who were usuallyundertaking a retreat and train bitterly were also disturbed. Finally, theycame out of their retreat and crowded around the Pill River.

When Lin Dong had entered the Pill River for the seventh day, this news wasdirectly spread everywhere. Some of the disciples from the other three hallsalso heard of it. Immediately, the Desolate Hall became lively. The disciplesfrom the other three halls would occasionally hurry over. After all, being ableto receive the Pill River Head Immersion and endure it for seven days, wassomething that only a rare few seniors could achieve.

Moreover, the thing that really caused their hearts to be shaken when that thewhirlpool was still completely calm when the seventh day arrived and there wasnot the slightest activity. The fellow deep under within the Pill River did notshow any signs of coming out…

Looking from the situation in front of them, it seemed that Lin Dong wouldvery likely endure until the eighth day. This result was something that onlythe senior sister Ying Xiaoxiao amongst the younger generation of the currentDao Sect had reached…

Could it be that this new disciple, who had joined the Desolate Hall for onlya couple of days, was actually as talented as that senior sister?

The faces of quite a number of disciples changed a little when they thought ofthis. This new person, who had become the champion of the Hundred Empire War,really did appear to have some ability.

The eighth day finally arrived while these many people were waiting quietly.After which, the entire Dao Sect began to show signs of boiling because of it…

However this boiling had not lasted for long when everyone became strangelyquiet. This was because they discovered that…

Lin Dong still did not show any signs of appearing!
