Refining the Mountains and Rivers-Chapter 1658B – Demon Pool

Chapter 1658B – Demon Pool

Now, Big Bull's soul was fused with the earth vein. It had been this way since ancient times, and though Big Bull seemed to be immortal because of this, it was actually constantly suffering from the pain of being crushed by the mountain.

Unless the Jade Gate fell, Big Bull was doomed to be an eternal prisoner! It did not want to endure another day of this painful suffering and torment, so it agreed to Rourou’s request so quickly.

Of course, Rourou had a reason for stating her promise…reincarnating from the Demon Pool was something that only the most powerful great demons had the qualifications to do. To be able to retain one’s spiritual wisdom and one’s soul completely to ensure that they had double the power in their next life also required the luck of the Demon Clan’s bloodline.

As for why this great demon, who had lived underneath Bull Fighting Mountain for countless years, had believed Rourou’s words straightaway…it was because of some other secret reasons. Big Bull had already detected her presence the moment she stepped into the mountain.

She lifted her hand, and Big Bull, who was standing in front of her, suddenly shattered and dissipated with a pop! A perfectly round elixir that was gold in color started to form and eventually landed in her hands.

Rourou looked down at it with a satisfied look on her face. She nodded her head and tossed it straight into her mouth.

Crunch –

It felt like she was casually eating a sweet.

The corners of Qin Yu’s mouth twitched. This brutal scene that he just witnessed felt extremely outrageous. That was it? You ate Big Bull’s elixir, what about the promise that you made to it just now?

Gu-dong –

Rourou swallowed the elixir and licked her lips, seemingly feeling that the taste of the elixir was not bad. She reached out to grab Qin Yu and stepped forward. In an instant, both their silhouettes disappeared.

When they reappeared, they were now outside of the three mountains. Qin Yu gasped for breath as he turned his head to look behind him. He could vaguely see a tall and majestic mountain that rose beyond the clouds.

Star Picking Mountain!

This teleportation had shifted them across a shocking distance, past an entire mountain. With Qin Yu’s physique, his chest felt like it was tumbling back and forth and his face paled.

Rourou looked at him, “What? After stealing and eating some of my food, you still want to take your time and wait for people to come and chase after you?” She scoffed after saying these words; it seemed like she was now in a much better mood.

After eating this great demon’s elixir that was integrated with the earth vein for millions of years, she was now contaminated by the earth vein as well. This could help her better hide her aura and she did not need to be as cautious like before.

Therefore, Rourou was able to bring Qin Yu with her and teleport to this place using a teleportation Divine Way.

Before now, she definitely would not have been able to do this.

Qin Yu thought for a while before asking, “And what about that Big Bull?”

“It was stupid so it got eaten by me; is that my fault?”

How bold and overbearing.

Qin Yu rubbed his temples, “I just think that you didn’t seem like you were lying to it.”

“Hmph! Prince Qin, I’m afraid you have not heard of the saying that goes, ‘The prettier a woman is, the more her words are not to be trusted’.”

Qin Yu coughed lightly, “Of course Lady Rourou is incomparably beautiful, but I definitely think that you are an exception.”

Rourou rolled her eyes, “Boot-licker!” Turning around to leave, she added in a small voice, “Before I ate the elixir, I had already sent its soul away. However, it’s not that easy to enter the Demon Pool. Whether or not it is able to successfully reincarnate depends on its own luck.”

A smile formed on Qin Yu’s face.

After passing through three mountains, there was still a river in front of them. Once they had gotten across this river, they would have left the Jade Gate realm and would have officially stepped through the Central Desolate Divine Area’s borders.

In this boundless world, there were countless powerful people. The Great Desolate held the broadest and most boundless world…we are coming!

……

Even though the Demon Clan was no longer as bountiful now as compared to their ancestors, their lineage had been passed down for so many years. Foundation was something that was not lacking.

The Demon Pool was the most important foundation to the Demon Clan. No one knew the origins of the Demon Pool. It seemed that ever since the Demon Clan was born, it had already existed.

As long as the demons of this world cultivated to the Major Demon realm, they would have a small chance of reincarnation in the Demon Pool after they died. Their flesh would condense and they would be reborn.

If their soul was complete and their spiritual wisdom intact, they would achieve an even greater aptitude for cultivation.

Of course, this ‘small chance of reincarnation’ was indeed very small. It was estimated that only one lucky Major Demon out of seven or eight hundred could be reborn.

Apart from this, they had two other options. Either one was so powerful that one could accumulate the Demon Clan’s luck, or one had to come from a very powerful background with someone who could be one’s backer.

Today at the Demon Pool, the waves were rolling viciously as a huge amount of Demon Clan luck accumulated. Flesh was condensing to form a minor demon.

The eyes of the demons who were guarding the Demon Pool lit up at the same time. They looked delighted because this meant that ten years later following the birth of this minor demon, the Demon Clan would have another important pillar. In the future, as long as this demon did not die halfway, it would become a shockingly powerful being.

However, there was one thing that made the great demons feel perplexed. The Desolate Area has been peaceful lately; there was no news of any great demons dying. Could it be that one of the elders who were in closed-door cultivation had failed to advance to the next realm?

Countless eyes concentrated on the Demon Pool as the egg containing the minor demon gradually stabilized. As their vision penetrated the egg’s outer shell, they could vaguely make out the silhouette of the being inside the egg. It was…a small bull?

Whoosh –

A figure suddenly appeared above the Demon Pool. She had green hair, wore green robes, and her beauty was unparalleled. Her eyes were calm as she looked at the newborn egg.

“Greetings, Green Goddess!”

All the great demons that were present bowed politely and respectfully.

There were a few gazes that were fiery and full of admiration, but they were immediately concealed cleanly for fear of offending this legendary figure of the Demon Clan. They might be directly chased out of the Demon Pool and lose their luck at cultivation and even worse, they might lose all chances to ever see the Green Goddess’ beauty in their entire life.

The Green Goddess waved her hands to let all the great demons get up from their bowing position. She focused her gaze on the Demon Pool and raised her eyebrows.

One great demon took in a deep breath before walking forward and cupping its hands, “Green Goddess, is there something wrong?” Reincarnation that happened at the Demon Pool was still a key sign of the continuation of Demon Clan’s luck, but there were some mistakes that had occurred before.

Many years ago, there was a human who cultivated using the Demon Clan’s methods. No one knew what kind of twisted methods they used, but they had really substituted their body for another great demon, and using this shell of a body, they successfully entered the Demon Pool to reincarnate.

Thankfully, this was discovered by the Green Goddess. Before this demon cultivator could steal any of the Demon Pool’s origins, he was directly killed by lightning.

The other great demons had a heavy expression on their faces.

Green Goddess hesitated for a while before she slowly shook her head, “There’s nothing wrong, it is indeed a great demon from our Demon Clan that underwent reincarnation.”

What was strange to her was that even though this bull demon had the power of a great demon, it was clearly not qualified enough to reincarnate in the Demon Pool.

Obviously, someone had opened the back door for it. What was even stranger is that as the guardian of this Demon Pool, she had not managed to find anything abnormal about it.

In my Demon Clan, who exactly could be powerful enough to do this? Her eyes appeared to be in deep thought.

……

The mountain road twists around each new peak, and an opportunity has come unexpectedly. The willow tree provides shade but the flowers give the light; there is light at the end of the tunnel. As the saying goes, ‘the heavens never blocks one’s way’...never give up hope!

A sorrowful Yang Fanshan, who chose not to pick the second option of escaping, was about to step out of the Jade Gate realm when suddenly, he saw the two saviors of his life.

He was so delighted that he was on the verge of crying!

As he wiped his tears, he took big strides forward for fear that these two people would disappear if he was any slower.

“Your Honor Qin Yu, My Lady, we meet again!”
