After so observation, the higher-ups of several sects noticed that the energy within the Heavenly Pool is extrely abundant, naturally ford, though it has no effect on martial artists above the divine realm, it remains a significant opportunity for martial artists at the divine scholar level.
After long-term experintation, it was discovered that the energy of the Heavenly Pool accumulates roughly one full portion over the course of a year, which is enough for twenty disciples at the divine scholar level to cultivate.
However, people are greedy; each sect wants more spots, hence the annual grand competition, where aside from rewards, the Heavenly Pool is a major highlight.
Like this year, the Sunlight Sect, ranked at the bottom, only gets three spots, while the Heavenly Sword Pavilion has a full five. Typically, disciples who have experienced the Heavenly Pool advance quickly to the divine realm, becoming inner sect disciples, the core of the sect!
In the past, the Heavenly Sword Pavilion's performance in the grand competition wasn't ideal, but this ti five people participated, and their sword bone cultivation is strong, so other sect leaders show great respect.
However, Lin Chen didn't overlook those sinister glances cast from the shadows.
Without even looking, Lin Chen knew that the disciples from the Sunlight Sect, Blazing Fla Sect, and Kaiyuan Sect harbored considerable resentnt toward him. After all, what he did in the Heavenly Water Secret Realm was like a slap to their faces.
Yet Lin Chen didn't take it too seriously, believing that if the roles were reversed, he couldn't see those people being so magnanimous.
"Alright, since everyone is here, let's get started! Let's go!"
The elder of the Kaiyuan Sect said, leading Yun Tianxing and others forward. The group quickly followed, arriving in front of a cave where Spiritual Energy was already seeping out before they even went in.
Then the Kaiyuan Sect elder added:
"Once inside, no fighting is allowed as your battles could destroy the Heavenly Pool; a consequence you cannot afford! You simply need to enter the Heavenly Pool where the Pool's Spiritual Liquid quickly helps in cultivation. Just perform the Divine Art and absorb what you can, stopping only when you're full, strictly no removing of the Liquid! It has a distinctive aura; if discovered, consequences will be severe!"
"Alright, that's it, the Heavenly Pool's space is quite large, enough for twenty of you, go in now!"
"Fellow elders, lend
a hand!"
With that, the elders of the five sects activated a formation, making the cave seem different. Lin Chen knew it was a prevention formation to stop others from stealing the Pool's Spiritual Liquid.
Seeing the formation closed, Yun Tianxing from the Kaiyuan Sect cast a cold glance at Lin Chen, but said nothing, proceeding inside with two disciples.
Ning Yan too looked poisonously at Lin Chen, though his physical wounds healed, the psychological scars made him long to tear Lin Chen apart to vent his anger.
But he also knew that now was not the ti to act on his desire against Lin Chen, his true intentions known only to himself.
As everyone entered the cave one by one, the five from the Heavenly Sword Pavilion were last. Lin Chen didn't miss the looks others gave, nor could he restrain his flickering gaze.
While training at the Heavenly Sword Pavilion, Lin Chen had a plan; now seeing the situation, he pondered whether to eliminate these potential troublemakers.
Yet, with so many elders present, even the bold Lin Chen wouldn't act impulsively.
Once Lin Chen reached the depths of the cave, he saw the so-called Heavenly Pool.
In front of everyone lay a vast, natural pool filled with a milky white Spiritual Liquid, exuding a refreshing aura.
anwhile, Yun Tianxing, Xuan Yan, and others already sat cross-legged in the pool without undressing, performing the Divine Art, absorbing strands of the milky Spiritual Energy.
Seeing this, Lin Chen thought to himself:
"This Heavenly Pool Liquid seems mysterious, I wonder how it affects my cultivation!"
After so observation, Lin Chen hesitated no more, finding a corner and entering the pool, activating the Sword Essence Art, with strands of Spiritual Liquid lding into his ridians.
"Hmm? This Liquid is similar to Divine Essence, though not as effective as Divine Crystals for cultivation, it contains a unique Spiritual Energy. Even my recently advanced cultivation feels like it might improve soon!"
Lin Chen continued absorbing the Liquid but soon sensed a consciousness erging from his Dantian.
"Hmm? Xiao Lian, could it be Xiao Lian can absorb this Liquid too?"
"Fine, let her try, this Liquid can only help, not harm !"
Thinking this, Lin Chen ignored Xiao Lian, letting her absorb freely.
With Xiao Lian's involvent, Lin Chen's absorption speed increased, clearly sensing the Liquid's benefits.
The Liquid, rging with his Divine Essence, refined it. Though Xiao Lian had already perfected his Essence, making this refinent less noticeable.
Yet, the Liquid not only purifies the Essence but directly enhances cultivation. In a short ti, Lin Chen noticed slight fluctuations and an uptick in his level.
Just as Lin Chen was pleased, his expression changed suddenly, sensing trouble!
Xiao Lian's previously moderate absorption suddenly surged wildly, drawing in massive amounts of Liquid, storing it in the Dantian.
From outside, a small vortex ford around Lin Chen, as vast amounts of Liquid entered his ridians and Dantian, with Xiao Lian consuming most of it.
