After listening to Yue Lishan's explanation, Qin Luo saw Nuantang and the other two behind him, who were struggling to breathe under the pressure of the divine beast. He looked at Yinshuang and Fengliao's cultivation levels, which were about to break through to the Saint Realm, and then at Nuantang's low cultivation level. He sighed in his heart.
He absolutely had to enter the ancestral pool inside, not only to give Nuantang the opportunity to revert to her ancestral form, but also for the growth of the three silly children within him.
The Primordial Dragon, the Chaos Phoenix, and the Origin Qilin, once their appetites were whetted by the blood energy, became unstoppable.
At this moment, they were jumping around in Qin Luo's Qi Sea, and their urgent urging seemed to break through the Qi Sea and directly enter Qin Luo's consciousness.
The tender chirping echoed in Qin Luo's mind, making his already complicated thoughts even more difficult to calm.
That blood essence was indeed a great tonic. From the moment he entered until now, Qin Luo could even clearly feel the growth and changes of the Chaos Primordial Phoenix and the Origin Primordial Qilin.
A faint aura of chaos began to appear around the Chaos Phoenix, weaving through its feathers and making its form appear even more mysterious with each flicker.
Meanwhile, the Origin Qi was quietly growing on the Origin Qilin. These Qi gathered together to form strange patterns that flowed slowly across its scales, adding a touch of antiquity and weight to its already majestic aura.
But looking back at Nuantang, her face was flushed red under the pressure of the ancestral pool, her delicate body looked like it was about to collapse, and every breath she took seemed extremely difficult.
Although Yinshuang and Fengliao were about to reach the standard for breaking through to the Saint Realm, their mottled bloodlines could barely withstand the pressure. Beads of sweat rolled down their foreheads, soaking a corner of their clothes.
After a moment's thought, Qin Luo looked at everyone and slowly spoke:
"Since the cultivation environment here is extremely favorable for your breakthrough, stay here and concentrate on your breakthrough."
"As for the matter of taking away your fox clan's quota before, I have done my best to compensate you, so let's put it behind us."
Before they could even speak, Qin Luo's spiritual energy surged forth, gently enveloping Nuantang and helping her resist the overwhelming pressure of the divine beast.
Feeling the gentle spiritual energy emanating from her body, Nuantang had thought this was the last time she would see Brother Qin. Her heart was filled with bitterness and reluctance, and her eyes involuntarily welled up with tears.
But as the spiritual energy enveloped her, she immediately realized that Brother Qin was going to take her inside with him. A surge of joy welled up within her, her eyes brightened again, and her gaze towards Qin Luo was filled with dependence.
Just as Qin Luo was about to lead Nuantang and Yue Lishan to the depths of the Ancestral Pool, Yue Lishan's expression tightened. She hurriedly stepped forward, clenched her fists, and said loudly:
“My lord, with my bloodline and strength, I am fully capable of withstanding this pressure and will absolutely not be a burden to you. Moreover, in times of crisis, I can also help you with many trivial matters, whether it is scouting for danger or assisting in battle, I can handle it all.”
As she finished speaking, she glanced at Nuantang intentionally or unintentionally, a subtle glint in her eyes suggesting that she would protect Nuantang for Qin Luo when he faced his enemies deep within the ancestral land.
Seeing this, Yinshuang felt anxious and forced herself to hurry after him.
A captivating smile instantly bloomed on her face, a smile so alluring it could stir even the deepest desires in one's heart. She spoke in a soft, sweet voice:
“My lord, Silverfrost also longs to follow in your footsteps. I assure you that I will not hold you back.”
As she spoke, she swayed her graceful waist, trying to seduce Qin Luo.
Now that she has witnessed Qin Luo's power, she is no longer satisfied with the cultivation of a first-grade saint. If she can keep up and absorb higher-level blood energy, and further increase her foundation, she will probably be able to advance smoothly to the saint realm in the future.
Hearing this, Qin Luo remained calm, his gaze sweeping over Yue Lishan and Yinshuang. He understood their thoughts, but he had already made his words clear enough.
It was already an incredible stroke of luck that they had gotten so much benefit from his actions. He had his reasons for doing so and had no intention of explaining his request any further.
Without saying much, Qin Luo simply put his arm around Nuantang and then walked steadily toward the depths of the ancestral pool.
Seeing this, Yue Lishan hesitated for a moment, then quickly followed.
Watching Qin Luo and the others walk further and further away, Yin Shuang was extremely anxious. She gritted her teeth, disregarded the oppressive aura emanating from her, and chased after them.
But after taking only a few steps, the terrifying pressure from the divine beast pressed down on her, and she felt a sharp pain in her chest, as if a huge mountain was pressing down on her, making it difficult for her to breathe.
"puff!--"
In the end, Silver Frost could not withstand it any longer, spitting out a mouthful of blood, and her body fell backward uncontrollably.
She struggled to get up, but found her legs were weak and she couldn't muster any strength. Looking in the direction Qin Luo had left, her eyes were filled with resentment...
As they ventured deeper into the ancestral pool, the surrounding crimson color intensified, the light began to dim, and the oppressive aura of the divine beast became ever more palpable and heavier.
Under Qin Luo's spiritual protection, Nuantang's breathing gradually became steady, but looking at the blood-red light emanating countless oppressive auras around her, she couldn't help but feel a little worried.
But when she saw Qin Luo beside her, her worries were instantly dispelled. Looking at his tall and straight back, Nuantang felt a strange sense of security, as if as long as Brother Qin was there, nothing in this world could truly threaten her.
Yue Lishan kept a sufficient distance behind the two of them, which neither offended Qin Luo nor made him feel uncomfortable, and allowed her to keep an eye on the situation at all times.
Qin Luo remained calm and silent. Since Yue Lishan was capable of keeping up, he would let her go, considering it an opportunity for her to share in the good fortune. After all, if any unexpected situation arose deep within the ancestral pool, someone capable of withstanding the pressure would be needed to help protect Nuantang.
And so, the three continued their journey into the depths of the ancestral pool, which was filled with a thick, bloody hue. But the deeper they went, the worse Yue Lishan's complexion became.
Logically, once they stepped into this area, there should have been many descendants of divine beasts as adversaries, but they have been venturing in for so long now and haven't encountered a single enemy.
This unusual calm stirred a strong sense of unease within Yue Lishan.
"My lord." Yue Lishan finally couldn't help but speak, her voice tinged with caution and worry:
"This journey has been far too peaceful; it's highly unusual. Our ancestors who entered the Ancestral Pool mentioned that this area is frequently inhabited by descendants of divine beasts, with constant battles. Yet we haven't encountered a single enemy so far. I'm worried..."
She paused, not finishing her sentence, but her solemn expression revealed her inner worry.
