“What?”
A glint of coldness rose in the eyes of Patriarch of Law Enforcement. He had thought that inside the Pond of Dragons was not miraculous liquid but something toxic and that Master of Fairy Fox was trying to set Lu Li up. As a result, Patriarch of Law Enforcement took out his iron rod at once. He bellowed as he tried to pound Master of Fairy Fox, “You evil creature. How dare you harm Li-er?”
Master of Fairy Fox was staring at the pond in shock. She never expected that Patriarch of Law Enforcement would launch an attack against her all of a sudden. When she realized what had happened, the iron rod was already right in front of her face. She sensed a swift and fierce force above her head. Her head was about to be crushed in a second.
“Great-grandpa... stop!”
Patriarch of Law Enforcement heard a shout calling for him. Hearing the voice of Lu Li, Patriarch of Law Enforcement stopped right away. Even so, that swift and fierce force still knocked away Master of Fairy Fox.
“Lu Li, how are you doing?”
Patriarch of Law Enforcement came around. He had been blinded by his sudden anger. Master of Fairy Fox was Lu Li’s spiritual beast, and she would never harm him. When Patriarch of Law Enforcement used psychic power to check, he could only vaguely sense Lu Li’s presence in the Pond of Dragons and nothing else.
“I... am okay. Do not mind me. Do not... come in!”
Lu Li shouted again, painfully. The Liquid of Dragons in the pond was boiling more violently as if Lu Li was a ball of fire that had heated the Liquid of Dragons in the pond.
“What?”
Ke Mang checked more carefully. He noticed something strange. “The liquid in the pond... is decreasing.” He yelled in shock.
“Whoosh!”
The Master of Fairy Fox came back. She did not blame Patriarch of Law Enforcement. After all, he was Lu Li’s great grandpa. What could she say?
She stared at the pond. Her big eyes were filled with confusion. “Is master a gifted man? The Liquid of Dragons is declining quickly. Good heavens, master has absorbed so much Liquid of Dragons. That is weird...” She murmured.
Patriarch of Law Enforcement and Ke Mang turned to her as the former asked coldly, “What is happening?”
“I... I don’t know!”
Master of Fairy Fox shook her head and answered with fright, “Previously, when we got into the Pond of Dragons, there was no such reaction. We would just absorb a little Liquid of Dragons to enhance our bodies. Master... has absorbed too much Liquid of Dragons. I don’t think the most talented Silver Dragons could be like him!”
More than half of the Liquid of Dragons in the Pond of Dragons was gone. Lu Li’s head was revealed from the water and what was left of the Liquid of Dragons was still being absorbed by Lu Li at a horrifying speed.
“He... will he be okay after taking in so much Liquid of Dragons?” Patriarch of Law Enforcement asked while frowning. He threw a glance at Lu Li.
“I am not sure.”
Master of Fairy Fox shook her head, “Liquid of Dragons is miraculous, but master absorbed too much of it. As you must know... we may not be able to bear something when we take in too much even if it is something beneficial!”
Patriarch of Law Enforcement and Ke Mang pulled a long face. Their eyes flickered in hesitation, wondering if they should get Lu Li out.
Too much water drowned the miller!
Liquid of Dragons was good. The thing was, would Lu Li’s body be able to take it? However, Lu Li said not to disturb him. Patriarch of Law Enforcement could not make up his mind.
Lu Li was sitting in the Pond of Dragons with his head stuck out of the water. The Liquid of Dragons inside the pond was bubbling up and swarming toward him. It was being absorbed quickly.
He seemed to be in pain, shaking. He felt as though he had been thrown into a furnace. His veins were popping out of his face. His hideous expressions made him like a beast under attack.
Over half of the liquid inside the Pond of Dragons had been absorbed, but Lu Li had not stopped. Master of Fairy Fox’s jaw was dropped. She once heard from Master of Silver Dragon that even the most talented of them had only absorbed less than half of the Liquid of Dragons in the pond.
“Is he trying to absorb all the Liquid of Dragons?”
Master of Fairy Fox murmured. Then, she worked up the courage to warn Lu Li, “Master, Liquid of Dragons is good stuff but... if you absorb too much, you will not be able to take it. Many Silver Dragons once... had their bodies exploded because of this.”
Patriarch of Law Enforcement added, “Lu Li, do not force yourself. Take what you can and leave.”
“Do not mind me!”
Once again, Lu Li screamed. He did not even open his eyes. He seemed like a drunk that abandoned himself for more alcohol.
The fact was!
He could not control the absorbing of the Liquid of Dragons because... it was not him that was absorbing it, but the silver dragon mark.
As soon as he dived into the Pond of Dragons, the silver dragon mark inside his Core of Soul began to move about in the Soul Pond. Following that, the Liquid of Dragons from all sides began to boil and surge toward him. He had no control of it.
When a large amount of Liquid of Dragons entered his body, he felt like he was being stabbed by countless needless. The painful sensation was similar to what he experienced during the three days and nights at the Wicked Sorcery Mountain.
To be honest, Lu Li could just go ahead and leave. But he had chosen to stay because the silver dragon mark was a part of him. The Liquid of Dragons must be beneficial to him since the silver dragon mark desired to absorb it.
What was more!
His body was being reinforced at a fast speed, which he could tell. It was painful, but he could stand it. Hence, he chose to stay.
As time went by, the Liquid of Dragons in the pond was decreasing. Master of Fairy Fox’s mouth was opened wide. She trembled, in fear.
She was afraid that Lu Li’s body might explode. He had taken in too much Liquid of Dragons. The energy gathered in his body had reached a critical amount. If he were to burst open, then an area with a radius of three miles could be turned barren.
Furthermore, Lu Li’s momentum was increasing. Master of Fairy Fox felt suffocated as if there was a volcano inside Lu Li that might erupt at any minute.
Patriarch of Law Enforcement had already activated the Mystic Armor. He kept his psychic power on Lu Li and was ready to rescue him at any time. Patriarch of Law Enforcement asked Ke Mang to leave the cave. He would not survive if Lu Li were to explode.
Patriarch of Law Enforcement did not know why Lu Li insisted on absorbing the Liquid of Dragons, but he respected Lu Li’s choice. If Lu Li were to explode, Patriarch of Law Enforcement had decided to stay here and be buried with Lu Li. He would not have the courage to go back and face Bai Qiuxue, Jiang Qiling, Lu Zhengyang, and all the others.
Time moved on. A small amount of Liquid of Dragons was left in the Pond of Dragons. The momentum of Lu Li became threatening. He would bellow every now and then. He was like a trapped demonic beast at the moment.
“Hiss~Ah~”
Lu Li grimaced and gasped. The momentum grew more appalling. He consumed too much Liquid of Dragons, way more than he could take. Still, some of it was not consumed and was lurking inside his body. He was like a bomb that could go off any minute now.
“I cannot take it anymore—”
When all the Liquid of Dragons was absorbed, Lu Li felt that the energy inside him had accumulated to a critical point. It was as if he would explode the next second. He made a prompt decision and stood up. He shouted and smashed his fist upward.
“Swish, swish~”
A fist-like shadow whooshed out from his arm. That shadow extended until it became longer than 100 feet.
“Boom, boom, boom!”
The fist-like shadow swooshed by. The stone ceiling was cracked. The mountains were shaking and so was the ground. The entire mountain wobbled violently. Amid the terrified stares of the many Haechi beasts and Fairy Foxes outside, the mountain split up and stones were flying around. The entire mountain had burst open...
