Chapter 696 - The person in the depths of the pond
Huuu. Huuu.
Deep down in the Greatlaw Goldpond should be very quiet, but at this moment, it was rolling with waves as thick golden lake water violently whistled, as if it had formed a massive golden vortex.
The centre of the vortex was actually a colossal seated figure.
The colossal figure was naturally Mu Chen’s Great Solar Undying Body. But at this moment, the Sovereign Celestial Body, which was initially a few hundred feet in size, had actually shrunk down to several dozen feet in size.
It was caused by the dreadful pressure of the Greatlaw Goldpond.
Within the Sovereign Celestial Body, Mu Chen quietly sat and his body was slightly trembling. The surface of his body was covered in dried blood. 2,000 feet down the Greatlaw Goldpond, the pressure had practically slightly penetrated the Sovereign Celestial Body as it pressed onto him.
If it wasn’t for him having an achievement in his physical body, he would have been crushed into fragments by the pressure that had penetrated the Sovereign Celestial Body.
But even so, the intense pain that spread throughout his body still made him uncontrollably tremble. But the pain was endured as he clenched his teeth.
Huuuu.
Under the layer of dried blood, Mu Chen lightly inhaled as both of his hands slowly changed seals.
Boom!
When the seal was formed, the Great Solar Undying Body abruptly exploded with myriad feet of brilliance. Flames of light were also rolling and spreading out. The mysterious and majestic Goldpond energy was sucked over and being devoured by the Great Solar Undying Body.
Mu Chen had pushed his Great Solar Undying Body to the limits, so the golden energy was constantly whistling over and endlessly poured into the light figure.
The golden energy was undoubtedly a hundred times thicker than before!
With such stunning energy pouring in, the surface of Mu Chen’s Great Solar Undying Body was rapidly being covered with golden light and the eight snakes were swiftly shuttled, greedily devouring the golden energy.
The eight golden snakes were swiftly swelling up at a visible speed.
A blazing sensation spread throughout every corner of the Sovereign Celestial Body. That feeling was as if he was in a furnace. However, as the burning sensation got more intense, Mu Chen could feel that the foreign pressure was getting weaker. Evidently, his Sovereign Celestial Body was gradually getting stronger after absorbing the Goldpond energy, so the resistance was also getting progressively stronger.
Time slowly lapsed at the bottom of the Goldpond.
As time passed, the golden light that enveloped the Great Solar Undying Body was getting stronger. Looking from afar, it seemed as if there was a golden membrane on the surface of the Sovereign Celestial Body.
Mu Chen, who was in the Sovereign Celestial Body, abruptly opened his tightly shut eyes. His gaze was directed outside the Sovereign Celestial Body and saw a huge golden snake swiftly moving on the surface of his Sovereign Celestial Body. The golden snake wriggled and golden claws were abruptly stretched out from beneath the snake. On the head of the snake, golden lumps were rising as well.
This was the sign that the snake was evolving.
At the sight of it, Mu Chen’s eyes flashed across with a smear of thought. Shortly after, he shifted his gaze towards the seven golden snakes and realised that they were also slowly evolving as well. As they evolved, Mu Chen could sense a bizarre energy quietly surging from their bodies.
That fluctuation made the Great Solar Undying Body slightly tremble, as if it was impatient.
“Daluo Golden Body, so it requires the snakes to evolve into dragons…”
Mu Chen’s gaze flickered. The eight golden snakes needed to evolve into dragons to refine the Daluo Golden Body, but it clearly required a significant amount of Goldpond energy. Also, that energy was only sufficient deep down.
“Then you can absorb all you want!”
Mu Chen grinned as his seals changed. A powerful suction force surged from the Great Solar Undying Body that devoured the endless Goldpond energy that was flowing over.
And when the Sovereign Celestial Body was sucking the Goldpond energy, the eight snakes were also greedily devouring it. Along with that, the evolution speed had also increased.
Three days passed in the blink of an eye deep down in the Goldpond.
Mu Chen opened his eyes once again in the Sovereign Celestial Body as he heard a hissing noise that abruptly resounded. He raised his head and saw eight snakes endlessly struggling on the surface of his Sovereign Celestial Body. As those golden snakes struggled, golden scales continually fell from their bodies. As golden light surged, dragon claws had also slowly stretched out.
When dragon horns appeared on the heads of those golden snakes, the hissing noise from the eight golden snakes abruptly turned deep, they had actually turned into genuine dragon roars. The dragon roars were broad and powerful as they raised golden waves in the depths of the Goldpond.
“Success!”
Mu Chen looked at this scene with joy. He had finally fed those eight golden snakes.
Roar!
When the eight snakes successfully transformed into golden dragons, they did not integrate into the Sovereign Celestial Body but twisted around the Great Solar Undying Body instead, issuing deep roars towards the depths of the Goldpond.
The roars seemed like an urge.
The eight golden dragons opened their mouths as violent gales whistled out, similar to tornados, as they swept towards the depths of the Greatlaw Goldpond. Deep down was filled with golden sludge, where the end could not be seen.
The sludge was gold in colour, as if it was melted gold, dazzling to the eyes.
Whoosh! Whoosh!
The golden sludge swept up in layers as it continuously swept towards the Sovereign Celestial Body.
Poof! Poof!
When the golden sludge enveloped over, it stuck onto the body of the Sovereign Celestial Body. In an instant, a white mist erupted from the Sovereign Celestial Body. It turns out that the golden sludge had a very fearsome temperature.
Mu Chen’s face instantly turned ugly.
He realised that under the envelopment of the golden sludge, even the Great Solar Undying Body was dissolving, bit-by-bit. The golden sludge that seemed harmless was actually the most terrifying thing in the Greatlaw Goldpond.
“Damn it!”
Mu Chen cursed with his teeth clenched. Those golden dragons had brought quite a troublesome thing for him. But, from the looks of it, it seemed to be the final step in refining the Daluo Golden Body.
Thus, no matter how shaken Mu Chen was in his heart, he had to persevere, no matter what, at this time.
Rustle! Rustle!
Earth-shattering golden sludge that was descending like a stormy rain was torn apart by the golden dragons. Under the envelopment of the stormy rain, the Great Solar Undying Body was gradually being covered underneath along with the eight golden dragons.
Ssssssiii! Sssssii!
White mist steadily rose as Mu Chen’s figure, which was seated in the Sovereign Celestial Body, was violently trembling at this moment. His entire body was red as blood continually oozed out. However, he tightly clenched his teeth and did not issue a single noise.
The horrifying temperature was not only burning the Sovereign Celestial Body, but also directly transmitted into him. Right now, he felt as if he was submerged deep in lava and would burn to ashes at any moment.
Mu Chen crouched down as sweat and blood combined together as they flowed down. His teeth were clenched, blood was similarly spewing out between the gaps of his teeth. Blood veins climbed in his black pupils, making him look particularly hideous.
Sssssssi! Sssi!
Golden sludge continually enveloped over as it nearly covered the entire Sovereign Celestial Body. Under the combustion of the golden sludge, the figure of the Great Solar Undying Body was shrinking, bit-by-bit.
As if it was melting.
Intense pain frantically pounded against Mu Chen’s mind. In the end, even with his will, it was a little intolerable. As fresh blood flowed down, his consciousness was getting weaker and weaker.
He could sense that under the envelopment of the golden sludge, the eight golden dragons were being fused into the Great Solar Undying Body, bit-by-bit. As long as he persevered, he would have successfully refined the Daluo Golden Body.
So at this time, he must endure it!
Rustle!
Just when Mu Chen was bitterly enduring, the golden sludge that continued to endlessly sweep out from the depths of the Goldpond, layers of the sludge was lifted.
Along with the movements of those layers of golden sludge, Mu Chen seemed to have felt something at that particular moment. He endured the pain and forcefully opened his eyes, directing his gaze down.
After that, his pupils abruptly shrank as a smear of astonishment surged in his eyes.
In the deepest parts of the Greatlaw Goldpond, golden sludge flew away and a golden stone stage was slowly being revealed. The golden stage was just roughly a foot in size. Right now, there seemed to be a petite silhouette quietly laid on the stone stage.
There is actually someone at the bottom of the Greatlaw Goldpond?
The sudden discovery involuntarily left Mu Chen in shock. At the moment, he was even able to endure the intense pain coming from his body as he hastily directed his gaze over. He realised that the silhouette on the golden stone stage was a naked small girl. Judging from the appearance, she seemed to be about eleven or twelve years old. She had long jet-black hair. Although her appearance wasn’t clear, from her petite appearance, she seemed very cute.
“Who is she? Why is she here?”
But at this moment, Mu Chen could not feel the slightest cuteness from her. Even he could figure this out by thinking with his butt that this weird little girl was entirely abnormal. Mu Chen also felt a dangerous aura coming from her.
Just when Mu Chen felt a chill from the appearance of the abnormal little girl, in the depths of the Greatlaw Goldpond, the eyelashes of the little girl gently moved. After that, she slowly opened her eyes under Mu Chen’s shocked gaze.
The pair of indifferent golden pupils made Mu Chen’s scalp instantly explode.
