Chapter 379

The two brothers walked along the way, happily and harmoniously, and the atmosphere was harmonious, as if they were as close as brothers.

Soon, they arrived at the location of the Dragon Transformation Pool.

On the outer layer, countless martial artists were tightly guarding it. Secretly, there were even many experts closely paying attention to this place, and their spiritual senses were covering it layer by layer.

Once any outsider attempted to approach here, they would be brutally and directly bombarded and killed！ There was no room for negotiation at all.

There was once a steward of a first-class family who came to offer tribute to the Yang Family. After delivering the tribute, somehow he got lost and strayed into a place ten miles outside the Dragon Transformation Pool. Before he could even say a word, he was killed on the spot by the experts of the Yang Family who were guarding this place.

After the matter spread, that first-class family not only didn’t dare to ask for guilt, but also sent someone to bring twice as many gifts to apologize.

This precious place of the Yang Family had always been a tightly guarded position.

Although it is within the Zhongdu City, within a radius of dozens of miles centered on the Pool, the most primitive state is still maintained. At first glance, I am afraid that I think I have strayed into some great wasteland.

The clouds and mist are lingering, and you can’t see your fingers when you stretch out your hand, covering a large area. The lush mountain forest looms, and there seem to be occasional figures flashing in the mountain forest.

In the deepest part, it is the Pool that can wash the scriptures and refine the marrow!

When Yang Zhao and Yang Kai arrived here, they also quickly shut up and did not speak. Yang Zhao took a step forward and cupped his hands and said, Disciple Yang Zhao, ordered to come to the Hualong Pool, dare to ask which senior is sitting here?

From the clouds and mist, a voice drifted strangely： “Old man Xiao Zhengqing. It turns out that Young Master Zhao has come. There is still one person beside Young Master Zhao. Who is it？”

Before Yang Kai could answer, Yang Zhao had already quickly taken over the conversation and said with a smile： “It’s my younger brother Kai！”

The voice in the clouds and mist was silent for a while, as if thinking about who the younger brother Kai in Yang Zhao’s mouth was. After a long while, he said： “Since you have come, the two young masters can come in.”

As he spoke, the clouds and mist lingering in front seemed to be fiddled with by two invisible big hands, rolling and surging towards both sides, revealing a clear passage in the middle.

It was only at this moment that Yang Kai and Yang Zhao were shocked to discover that on both sides of the revealed passage there were actually quite a number of capable experts from the Yang family standing.

And the one closest to the two of them was actually less than five zhang away.

Just now, these people were wrapped in the cloud and mist, and neither of the two brothers noticed. They don’t know what kind of profound mystery was contained in that cloud and mist.

These capable experts of the Yang family were obviously a bit different from those outside. Their auras were all calm, and most of them were at the True Yuan Jing realm. Their cultivations were also much more vigorous than those of ordinary people. Occasionally, there were some Divine Movement Jing people scattered among them, and each one looked at the two of them with a solemn expression.

Yang Zhao and Yang Kai looked at each other, and their expressions couldn’t help but become serious. They raised their heads and strode forward with big steps.

“Greetings to the two young masters！”

“Please come in, two young masters！”

All the way along, these martial artists all nodded slightly and respectfully greeted the two of them.

Yang Zhao had a smile on his face and walked with a dragon-like gait.

Yang Kai, however, remained silent. He quietly released his spiritual consciousness to sense the surroundings and was secretly surprised in his heart.

Although he was also a member of the Yang family and even a direct descendant of the Yang family, he still had no understanding at all of what kind of vigorous capital the Yang family had.

But after this exploration, he suddenly discovered that these martial artists around here, at the same Jing, were undoubtedly much stronger and more powerful in combat than the ordinary disciples from the first- and second-rate sects.

Their vigor, energy and spirit, the intensity of their flesh and blood, the vitality of their qi and blood, their bones and meridians, and the quality of their true yuan all seem to be purer and more surging.

Yang Kai estimates that two people here are enough to defeat three enemies of the same realm outside.

Of course, this is just a comparison among ordinary disciples.

Even so, it is still astonishing enough.

Moreover, the clouds and mist around here are rather strange. When the divine sense is probed into them, it seems to have penetrated into a pool of stagnant water and there is no response at all.

There should be some kind of formation operating here.

After walking for a full stick of incense time, the front suddenly became bright. The clouds and mist suddenly disappeared, giving people a feeling of seeing the light at the end of the tunnel.

Beside a huge pool, three white-haired and white-bearded old men were sitting cross-legged. At this moment, they were looking over here with shining eyes.

When they saw the two people walking out of the clouds and mist, the old man in the middle smiled slightly and said, ‘Yang Zhao？’

Yang Zhao’s expression became serious, and he quickly clasped his fists and said, ‘It is this disciple. Greetings to the three seniors！’

To be able to guard beside the Dragon Transformation Pool, whether these three people are surnamed Yang or not, their status in the Yang family will not be too low. They can even be on a par with the elders in the clan.

That’s why Yang Zhao is so solemn.

Xiao Zhengqing and the other two smiled slightly, seemingly very satisfied with Yang Zhao’s attitude. Their gazes then turned to Yang Kai, and they asked suspiciously, “Is this the one under the knee of the previous generation’s fourth, Yang Yingfeng？”

“That’s right. Yang Kai greets the three seniors.” Yang Kai nodded lightly.

In his heart, he was also shocked.

These three people were actually all top experts in the Divine Movement Realm. In other words, any one of them was no worse than Ling Taixu before his promotion. At this moment, they were actually guarding the side of the Dragon Transformation Pool, showing how much the Yang Family valued this place.

With the three of them here, and the mysterious formation outside and countless experts hidden within it, I’m afraid only those above the Divine Movement Realm could break through the defenses here.

After learning of Yang Kai’s background, Xiao Zhengqing just nodded slightly, and the other two also had no intention of speaking. It seemed that to them, Yang Zhao could arouse their attention and interest more.

They showed this so obviously, and Yang Kai didn’t have too many surprises.

“Senior, why did the family arrange for us to come to the Dragon Transformation Pool first this time？” Seeing that Xiao Zhengqing favored him quite a bit, Yang Zhao couldn’t help but have the desire to speak and quickly asked the doubt in his heart.

Xiao Zhengqing smiled faintly and said, “Naturally, it is to give you a better space for development. In the past few years when you were outside, you could only temper yourselves in first-class forces at most. The resources there are nothing compared to our Yang family. The cultivation techniques and martial skills you cultivated, and the medicinal effects of the pills you absorbed, have also produced a lot of impurities in your bodies. Entering the Dragon Transformation Pool can wash away all these impurities in your bodies！”

Yang Zhao’s face lit up with joy, and he said respectfully, “I will definitely not disappoint the family’s high expectations！”

Xiao Zhengqing laughed heartily and said, “Good, indeed the son of the family head is different from others. The Dragon Transformation Pool is right below, and you can go in on your own.”

Yang Kai couldn’t help but frown slightly. Although he didn’t expect Xiao Zhengqing to think highly of him, hearing these words still made him a little unhappy.

He didn’t say anything. Now that he has no power or influence, if he really said some harsh words, it would only be thankless and would also seem overreaching.

If he wants to change his view, there is only one way.

That is to make himself above the entire Yang family. At that time, anyone will have to obediently listen and act according to his face.

Yang Zhao nodded slightly. He and Yang Kai looked down and immediately saw a huge pool in front of them.

They could only see the outline and couldn’t see the water in the pool clearly at all, because above this pool, there was actually a thick layer of clouds and mist covering it.

But Yang Kai keenly noticed that this layer of cloud and mist was different from those they had just passed through.

The previous clouds and mists were only for confusion, but the layer above the Dragon Transformation Pool was condensed by the energy between heaven and earth. It seemed that the water in the entire Dragon Transformation Pool was the crystallization of energy, which steamed up and condensed into such a layer of cloud and mist covering the top.

“The Dragon Transformation Pool is a place where one can wash the meridians and cut the marrow. This opportunity is hard-won, so you must cherish it well.” Xiao Zhengqing smiled.

Another person interjected： “The Dragon Transformation Pool is also a place to test a person’s talent. The longer one can stay in it, the more it can show that the talent is outstanding. Yang Zhao, you must perform well. You are different from ordinary young masters. You are the son of this generation’s family head, and many people are optimistic about you.”

Yang Zhao’s face showed a hint of excitement, as if he couldn’t wait to prove himself. He quickly bow and say, “Yes!”

“Go！” Xiao Zhengqing waved his hand, and an invisible force wrapped both Yang Zhao and Yang Kai at the same time and gently sent them into the Dragon Transformation Pool.

The clouds and mists churned, and the two people simultaneously fell into the pool water and disappeared.

A chilly sensation assaulted him from all directions. It seemed as if there was indeed some mysterious effect within the waters of the Dragon Transformation Pool. Yang Kai clearly felt some energy pouring into his body through his acupoints and pores. As these energies entered his body, his entire being felt an excruciating pain.

But immediately, this pain suddenly vanished. Those energies drilled into his meridians and, under the refinement of True Yang Yuan Qi, merged into his Proud Bone Golden Body.

Yang Kai looked on in astonishment, suddenly feeling that this Dragon Transformation Pool… seemed somewhat overrated.

It didn’t have the mysterious effect as rumored.

Turning his head to look at Yang Zhao not far away, Yang Kai’s expression became even more peculiar.

He discovered that his second elder brother at this moment was like someone enduring tremendous pain. His entire face had turned an extremely flushed red, and his True Yuan was circulating frantically, drawing in the energy from the Dragon Transformation Pool into his own body.

Immediately, some impurities were expelled from his body. In the crystal-clear pool water, there were also some filthy substances added.

Yang Kai quickly swam a little further away, looking on in a daze.

Judging from Yang Zhao’s current appearance, the Dragon Transformation Pool clearly had an effect and could indeed help people wash their meridians and refine their marrow. But why couldn’t he feel it？

After thinking for a long time, Yang Kai had a sudden realization, his expression filled with surprise and suspicion.

If his guess was correct, it must be because of the Myriad Medicine Spiritual Liquid.

The All-Medicine Spiritual Liquid, if taken for a long time, can also wash the meridians and marrow, Youdaoplaceholder0 improving a person’s qualifications.

Ever since obtaining the All-Medicine Spiritual Liquid until now, as long as there are no irresistible factors, Yang Kai basically takes a drop every day.

After such a long time, the impurities in his body have probably already been completely expelled, and his qualifications must have also been significantly improved.

Now that he has entered the Dragon Transformation Pool again, how could it still have an effect？

The efficacy of the Dragon Transformation Pool must be inferior to that of the All-Medicine Spiritual Liquid.

Understanding this point, Yang Kai’s expression became disappointed.

Influenced by the concept from childhood, he was still quite looking forward to the efficacy of the Dragon Transformation Pool until just now, but he didn’t expect that it had no effect on him at all, so naturally he was a little disappointed.

Since the Dragon Transformation Pool has no effect on him and he has just entered and it’s not good to go out directly, Yang Kai suddenly felt bored and could only stay aside silently run the True Yang Art absorbing and refining the energy in the Dragon Transformation Pool.
