Chapter 808: A Complete Transformation

By the third day, Han Feng and Zhang Tianyi could no longer hold on and withdrew from the Primordial Marrow Cleansing Pool.

Now only Ye Yuan remained in the pool.

And at this moment, Ye Yuan had already reached the fifth layer!

“What a terrifying fellow. He’s already at the fifth layer, yet he looks perfectly fine!” Zhang Tianyi exclaimed.

In both talent and strength, he was utterly defeated by Ye Yuan.

No matter how proud he was, faced with Ye Yuan’s terrifying talent, he had to lower his haughty head.

The facts were laid before him, leaving him no choice but to admit it.

Seeing that Ye Yuan showed no sign of stopping, the five had no choice but to consolidate their gains from the pool while watching Ye Yuan’s progress.

In fact, they could have left the Red Cloud Valley by now, but they couldn’t bear to leave without seeing how far Ye Yuan would go.

Two days passed in the blink of an eye. Ye Yuan had already reached the sixth layer, still with no intention of stopping.

But the time to leave the valley had come. If they didn’t leave now, they would be trapped in the Red Cloud Valley for three hundred years!

“Brother Ye, the time is up. We have to leave!” Han Feng shouted toward Ye Yuan.

“You go ahead. I’ll continue,” Ye Yuan said calmly.

The Primordial Marrow Cleansing Pool had a remarkable effect on his body. In just five days, his strength had soared significantly.

How could Ye Yuan be willing to leave now?

“Brother Ye, the Grand Elder said earlier that if we don’t leave within five days, we’ll be trapped here!” Han Feng said anxiously.

Ye Yuan had taught him, and he couldn’t bear to see Ye Yuan trapped here.

However, Ye Yuan did not reply.

“Time to go! If he wants to stay, let him stay! If you’re not leaving, I’ll go first!”

Pei Kun, the first to be eliminated, had long lost interest in this place. If not for wanting to see how far Ye Yuan could go, he would have left long ago.

Outside the valley was a light barrier. Pei Kun leaped and vanished through it.

Nalan Hong glanced at Ye Yuan’s back, shook her head, and also left.

“This guy is really hard to read!”

Yang Xiao muttered and chose to leave as well, with Zhang Tianyi following closely.

“Han Feng, if you don’t leave now, the passage will close!” Zhang Tianyi shouted at Han Feng.

At this moment, the light barrier outside the valley flickered, on the verge of extinguishing. If he didn’t leave now, he would truly be trapped.

Han Feng sighed in disappointment and finally turned to leave.

Shortly after Han Feng left, the light barrier, as if losing its last support, vanished.

Ye Yuan paid no attention and continued to improve himself as he pleased.

…

Five figures shot out from the lake water, and the parted water merged back into its original form.

The Grand Elder smiled as he looked at Pei Kun and the other four, but his expression quickly changed drastically!

“Where is Ye Yuan?” Shen Qin’s face was terrifyingly dark.

“Ye Yuan was reluctant to leave the Primordial Marrow Cleansing Pool and refused to come out, so we had to leave first,” Pei Kun said helplessly.

“What! You mean Ye Yuan is trapped in the Red Cloud Valley?”

Though he had anticipated it, hearing Pei Kun say it himself struck him like lightning.

Ye Yuan was the successor personally chosen by the Saint Lord, and now he was trapped in the Red Cloud Valley—this was too big a blunder.

Han Feng also said helplessly, “I advised Brother Ye, but he still refused to come out. Perhaps… he has some means to get out on his own.”

“Nonsense! This formation is one-way; it can only be opened from outside! Even if it were the Saint Lord trapped inside, there would be no return, let alone someone of his strength!” Shen Qin lost his composure.

“Then… what can be done?”

Han Feng was also panicked; he didn’t want Ye Yuan trapped inside for three hundred years.

Shen Qin waved his hand, looking quite irritated: “Return to the Holy Land on your own. I’ll stay here to calm down!”

The five dared not disobey and had to leave the valley.

After they left, a figure slowly appeared—it was Tu You.

“Saint Lord, what… what can be done?” The Grand Elder’s words echoed Han Feng’s exactly.

Clearly, the Grand Elder had also lost his composure.

Tu You, however, was not as worried as expected. Instead, he said, “Since he refused to come out, he must have some means. Let’s wait here for a month. If he hasn’t come out by then, I will forcibly open the formation and bring him out!”

The Grand Elder’s face changed: “How can that be! If the Saint Lord forcibly opens the formation again, your remaining lifespan…”

Tu You smiled and said, “At this point, I have long seen through it. My only concern is the Holy Land. I promised Ye Yuan to send him in a second time. If he can’t come out, I must keep my promise. If my death can earn his wholehearted dedication to the Holy Land, it will be worth it.”

The Grand Elder sighed deeply, his face full of self-reproach.

Suddenly remembering something, he slapped his thigh and said, “Oh dear! In my haste, I forgot to ask those brats which layer Ye Yuan reached!”

Tu You smiled and said, “Being able to stay in the pool for five days, he must have at least reached the sixth layer! Not asking is fine; perhaps when he comes out, he’ll surprise us.”

…

After staying in the sixth layer, Ye Yuan’s realm smoothly broke through to the Second Layer of the Boundless!

Now, with one more step forward, he would enter the central area of the pool—the seventh layer!

“Ah!”

As soon as he entered the seventh layer, Ye Yuan felt every cell in his body boil; he felt his entire body burning!

This sensation of being burned all over instantly made his whole body convulse.

Ye Yuan could even hear his bones cracking!

The pool water in the seventh layer was terrifyingly intense!

But Ye Yuan knew that if he could endure this pain, it would greatly benefit his future cultivation!

The Primordial Marrow Cleansing Pool transformed a martial artist’s body in every way!

By now, the pool water had scoured Ye Yuan’s meridians several times!

His current cultivation speed was several times faster than before!

Ye Yuan’s physical cultivation aptitude was very poor; without his past life’s alchemical knowledge, he could never have reached this point.

Previously, he had relied on the aid of pills to make breakthroughs.

It was not until he obtained the True Dragon’s blood that his physical aptitude was somewhat improved.

But this time, Ye Yuan’s body underwent a complete transformation on top of the original foundation!

Now, Ye Yuan’s cultivation speed was not inferior to that of some rare spiritual bodies.

Even without taking pills, Ye Yuan’s cultivation speed was no slower than anyone else’s!
