Soul Emperor Martial God

The group of Heavenly Talents quickly followed.

But in fact, there wasn't much surprise in their hearts.

The Spirit Pond is something most forces have.

Its effect is twofold: for the younger generation of a force, especially those children just embarking on Martial Arts Enlightenment, to enter and soak, achieving the effect of cleansing and refining.

Secondly, it provides Martial Artists with soaking, having a certain effect of accelerating cultivation speed and cleansing the body.

Almost all relatively powerful forces have a Spirit Pond.

However, due to the different materials used to construct a Spirit Pond, there are distinctions in the strength of its effects.

The Spirit Pond built by ordinary forces is mostly refined into liquid using Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures, integrated into the pond to achieve the effect of the Spirit Pond.

How the Spirit Pond of the Heavenly Hidden Academy is constituted is unknown.

Perhaps its effect is much stronger than the Spirit Ponds of ordinary forces.

But among the Heavenly Talents present, except for a minority, most of them come from major forces and are no strangers to repeated soaks in Spirit Ponds since childhood.

Why would they care about this brief soak for several days?

What everyone now thinks about most is how to deal with the battle in three days.

No one wants to be a servant disciple.

As everyone walked, they pondered.

However, when everyone arrived at the Spirit Pond, they were dumbfounded, showing a startled expression as they looked at the huge Spirit Pond ahead.

No, perhaps it should be said this is not a pond, but more like a big lake.

With an area of at least several miles in radius.

Even before approaching, a dense Spiritual Energy had already come rushing face-on.

Over the entire lake surface, Spiritual Energy rose and drifted, its density even reaching a milky white color.

At the very center of the Spirit Pond, a Spiritual Energy storm raged fiercely.

"Such a terrifying Spiritual Energy storm, such an astounding density of Spiritual Energy." Everyone was astonished.

"Go in, kids." Deacon Youu waved his hand.

More than twenty thousand Heavenly Talents were instantly cast into the Spirit Pond.

"Rest assured and cultivate here, I will come to wake you in three days."

"Oh right, do not approach the Spiritual Energy storm in the middle, otherwise, don't blame me if you get torn into pieces for not warning you."

With that, Deacon Youu left.

The group of Heavenly Talents then hurriedly began cultivating in the Spirit Pond.

Xiao Yi was with Lih Fengxing and others.

"How on earth is this Spirit Pond constructed, how could the level of Spiritual Energy be this high?" Lih Fengxing and others were somewhat astonished.

"Indeed impressive." Xiao Yi nodded.

The effect of this Spirit Pond is likely better than soaking in a batch of refining liquid made from Ninth-grade Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures.

At this moment, a figure flickered and arrived; it was Fang Shushu.

"Xiao Yi." Fang Shushu called.

"Brother Fang..." Xiao Yi replied.

"Oh." Lih Fengxing and the others looked at Fang Shushu, saying, "Weren't you one of the twelve Heavenly Talents who crossed the Xuan Lock Chain earlier?"

"Yes, I am Fang Shushu." Fang Shushu cupped his hands, saying, "You are friends of Brother Xiao, right?"

"Then, from now on, you are my friends too."

"Fang..." Lih Fengxing cupped his hands, just about to say something, then smiled wryly, "Brother Fang, I am Lih Fengxing."

The Eldest Prince also cupped his hands and chuckled lightly, "Brother Fang, your father really picked a name for you, almost let you take advantage."

Among the twelve strongest Heavenly Talents, everyone naturally wanted to make friends.

"Haha." Fang Shushu laughed, saying, "My father is a Martial Arts Fool, he hates reading the most."

"He once told me he also hated me extremely, so he gave me the name 'Shushu' to represent that he found me more annoying than reading."

"Ha." Upon hearing this, everyone smiled softly.

Then Fang Shushu smiled, saying, "Tsk tsk, this Heavenly Hidden Academy is really rich."

"There's long been a rumor that there is a Spirit Vein beneath this Spirit Pond, now it seems it's indeed true."

"Otherwise, this Spirit Pond couldn't possibly have such a dense Spiritual Energy storm."

"Spirit Vein?" Upon hearing this, everyone's faces changed.

"Spirit Vein?" Xiao Yi was also astonished.

The so-called Spirit Vein is a vein of Spirit Stone.

Simply put, beneath this Spirit Pond, deep underground, lies a wealth of Spirit Stones.

The value of a single Spirit Stone need not be stated.

The value of a Spirit Stone Vein is immeasurable.

This is the foundation of a major force.

And this is merely the tip of the iceberg seen by these newly admitted disciples.

The name of the Heavenly Hidden Academy as the First Academy in the Central Region is indeed well deserved.

"Brother Xiao, shall we go near the Spiritual Energy storm?" Fang Shushu glanced at Xiao Yi, eyes full of restlessness.

"Is it dangerous?" Xiao Yi asked.

"I don't know." Fang Shushu shook his head, uncertainly said, "It probably isn't."

"Then let's go have a look." Xiao Yi nodded.

"You guys stay and cultivate here, I'll go with Brother Fang for a trip." Xiao Yi said to Lih Fengxing and others.

Everyone nodded.

The two flashed near the Spiritual Energy storm.

"Tsk tsk, the Spiritual Energy is even denser." Fang Shushu exclaimed in delight.

"Looks like the closer you get to the Spiritual Energy storm, the denser the Spiritual Energy becomes."

"Just don't know what the effect would be if cultivated within the Spiritual Energy storm."

As he spoke, a flash of light shot from Fang Shushu's hand, as he casually took out a High Grade Primordial Artifact.

With a flick of his arm, he tossed the High Grade Primordial Artifact into the Spiritual Energy storm.

Chchch...

A slight sizzling sound followed as the entire High Grade Primordial Artifact was ground into powder within.

"Gulp." Fang Shushu was startled.

Xiao Yi's face changed, "Even a High Grade Primordial Artifact couldn't withstand this shredding force."

"This Spiritual Energy storm is no ordinary thing." Xiao Yi frowned.

He kept feeling that he seemed to recall something.

"Forget it, let's just cultivate near the storm." Fang Shushu shook his head.

"Be careful." Xiao Yi said solemnly.

Around the storm, the Spiritual Liquid in the Spirit Pond was forming a vortex, a suction force born from within.

If you are to cultivate near here, you must withstand this suction force.

Otherwise, if sucked into the storm, even Body Cultivation Martial Artists would be shredded into pieces.

"Okay, understood." Fang Shushu nodded and began cultivating.

Xiao Yi frowned, contemplating something.

With his abilities, resisting this suction force was not a problem.

As for cultivating, he had little interest.

He currently mastered four complete Martial Ways, namely Domineering Sword Technique, Frost Sword Dao, Purple Crystal Spirit Flame Martial Way, and Earth Vein Gold Fire Martial Way.

His Qi Spring Elemental Power, too, had reached over four heights.

Before figuring out what's going on with the fifth Martial Way, there isn't much sense to his cultivation.

Even if his Qi Spring reaches five heights, without the fifth complete Martial Way forming, he cannot break through.

However, looking at the Spiritual Energy storm in front of him, he suddenly had an epiphany.

"Storm, Martial Way." Xiao Yi murmured to himself.

His cold eyes gradually closed.

A thread of enlightenment spontaneously emerged in his heart.

Beside him, Fang Shushu was startled by this, "Epiphany state? Brother Xiao, don't scare me."
