The red-clothed girl said, "Why think so much? Let’s start activating the Ancient Blood Pool now."
Xiao Zheng’s eyes lit up, agreeing, "This is the main task. My realm has hit a small bottleneck. I hope to break through with the help of this session of soaking in the Ancient Blood Pool."
The red-clothed girl asked, "Are you aiming to break through to the Late Stage Martial Saint?"
"Yes." Xiao Zheng nodded.
The red-clothed girl said, "To step from being a Great Grandmaster into the Martial Saint Realm, Vigorous Air Liquification is necessary. From the Early Stage to the Late Stage Martial Saint, the already liquified vigorous air must gradually transition to a solid state. If, in the end, you can condense a Gang Pill, you would have succeeded."
Xiao Zheng suddenly understood and joyfully said, "Thank you for the guidance." Previously, he had been sowhat puzzled about how to break into the Late Stage Martial Saint. Now, with the Netherworld King’s insightful guidance, he imdiately understood.
The red-clothed girl smiled slightly, saying, "It’s a small matter."
Xiao Zheng thought of another matter. Since there was such a "senior" here, it would be a sha not to ask for advice, so he asked, "Since the Late Stage Martial Saint requires condensing a Gang Pill, then how do you cultivate the Peak of Martial Saint and even its Ninth Heaven?"
The red-clothed girl did not hold back, "After condensing the Gang Pill, it’s a process that requires patient and continual practice. You progressively enlarge the Gang Pill until it reaches the maximum you can hold, and that equals stepping into the peak. By then, you’ll see a new heaven and earth."
Xiao Zheng curiously asked, "What kind of new heaven and earth?"
The red-clothed girl smiled, "You should have already seen it."
Xiao Zheng felt his heart suddenly jump, "You... you’re talking about spiritual power?"
The red-clothed girl nodded with a smile.
Xiao Zheng was sowhat delighted. Previously Wang Daoxuan had told him that cultivating spiritual power helps in breaking through to the Supre Realm, and it seems to be true!
The red-clothed girl said, "Enough talking. Bring the Blood Essence Fruit; I need to start the Ancient Blood Pool."
Xiao Zheng promptly took out the Blood Essence Fruit and handed it to the red-clothed girl.
The red-clothed girl threw the Blood Essence Fruit into the Ancient Blood Pool. The next mont, as if it sensed the arrival of the Blood Essence Fruit, the Ancient Blood Pool suddenly lit up with patterns that eventually converged into a huge, complex design.
Xiao Zheng looked over, and although he didn’t understand the aning of the design, just one glance made him feel that so rules seed to be secretly contained within those lines, corresponding to sothing existing in the void.
Then, his heart suddenly skipped a beat.
"Hmm?"
Xiao Zheng was slightly surprised and quickly examined his body internally, but found nothing unusual.
"What just happened? Why did my heart suddenly skip a beat?" Xiao Zheng was a bit puzzled. He looked again at the patterns, the mysterious feeling still existed, but the unusual heart skip did not occur again.
"It must have been an illusion," Xiao Zheng muttered to himself, "Or perhaps this Ancient Blood Pool is so profound that it triggered so instinctual agitation in , just like ordinary creatures might feel surprised or scared when seeing a top-level ferocious beast."
After the pattern in the Blood Pool lit up, three Blood Essence Fruits floated in the air, emitting a faint red glow and slowly rotating. Then, they remained in this state, with no further changes.
The red-clothed girl had a solemn expression. She opened a cut on her palm, forcing out blood to rge into the Blood Essence Fruit. An amazing transformation occurred imdiately! The Blood Essence Fruit suddenly started trembling violently.
Bang!
With a loud bang, the three Blood Essence Fruits exploded in mid-air, shattering into countless fragnts shooting in all directions. Xiao Zheng was just about to intervene to prevent the fragnts from scattering and going to waste when another change occurred.
The entire Blood Pool glowed red, enveloping the countless fragnts from the exploding Blood Essence Fruits, then lted them all as if fire was lting ice.
"It should be ready now."
The red-clothed girl said.
As soon as she finished speaking, the red light within the Blood Pool suddenly intensified. Then, a layer of blood water erged from the bottom of the Blood Pool, slowly rising until it filled the entire Ancient Blood Pool.
The blood water in the Blood Pool was as thick as rcury, yet it emitted a fragrance, gently rippling, giving off a tempting aura. Xiao Zheng couldn’t help wanting to jump in just from slling it.
"To enter the Blood Pool, clothes must not be worn; they need to be taken off." The red-clothed girl’s face suddenly reddened, "Moreover, because there are only three Blood Essence Fruits, the resulting pool water is limited, so we have to share this pool."
Xiao Zheng laughed heartily, "No problem, you go first. Call when you’re done, and I’ll keep a lookout in a corner nearby, I promise I won’t peek at you."
The red-clothed girl’s face turned even redder, "The blood pool imrsion has a rule—it must be unbroken from start to finish, so we... need to be in it together."
"What?" Xiao Zheng’s eyes widened.
His heart began to pound.
Damn, soaking in a bath with the Netherworld King!
And they have to undress completely!
That’s... just thinking about it is exciting.
The Netherworld King is the most powerful woman in this world.
"Well... in that case, maybe I shouldn’t use this blood pool." Xiao Zheng thought for a mont, then smiled wryly. Although the thought was a bit thrilling, as a man, he shouldn’t take advantage of a woman, right? Even if this woman is far stronger than he is, a terrifying existence.
The red-clothed girl, a Martial Artist after all, hesitated at first but had since adapted. She shook her head at Xiao Zheng’s words and decisively said, "We are all martial artists, seeking the Martial Arts Peak. How can worldly rules bind us? Let’s begin."
"This... this is sowhat improper." Xiao Zheng was still hesitant.
"What, I’m not afraid as a woman, yet you, a dignified man, are scared? Are you even a man?" The red-clothed girl was already a bit annoyed.
Am I a man?
For a man, the impact of this question is enormous, especially when it cos from the mouth of a charming and attractive woman.
Xiao Zheng imdiately made up his mind, his expression turning serious, "Those who achieve great things don’t bother with trivialities, I won’t be polite then." Saying so, he began to undress.
"Turn around!" The red-clothed girl shouted with a flushed face.
"Ahem, okay." Xiao Zheng chuckled dryly and turned around.
Then, he started undressing, but at this mont, out of the corner of his eye, he saw a set of red clothes fly up gently and fall to the ground. Sohow, seeing this scene, his heart pounded once more.
Thud.
The red-clothed girl jumped into the Ancient Blood Pool, the entire Blood Pool bursting with red light, looking extrely frightening!
