Chapter 53 Royal Body
The Jade Pool Gathering is truly grand. Even before it begins, many extraordinary individuals have already settled in this sacred land, and masters from all over the world have gathered here.
Especially among the younger generation, all sorts of outstanding talents are converging on the Jade Pool.
"Fellow Daoist, the matter of the rare stone is rather urgent. Let's go and see the rare stone first." The Holy Maiden of Yaochi personally led the way for him.
They rushed to the Immortal Pool, intending to seal the strange stone there.
As for the others, most of them were in the front courtyard of Yaochi, the gathering place for the grand event, where countless heroes from all over the world gathered.
Behind the Jade Pool, in the Immortal Pool, a grand competition of Origin Techniques took place.
Ahead, a misty fog enveloped the area, surrounded by fragrant flowers and singing birds, resembling a mythical world. Some rare and exotic creatures, resembling three-legged golden crows, fire phoenixes, and qilin, appeared before quickly disappearing.
Even if they were mixed-blood races, it was enough to demonstrate the profound depth of Yaochi.
How could an ordinary holy site possibly collect so many terrifying species?
Beside the Immortal Pool stands an ancient tree, vigorous as a writhing dragon, dozens of meters tall, stretching towards the sky. Rooted in the Immortal Pool, it is lush and verdant, bearing several fruits with a rich, fragrant aroma that soothes the skin and makes one's pores open – clearly a peerless medicinal treasure.
Beneath the ancient peach tree lies a crystalline stone with nine orifices and eight openings, seemingly breathing in and out the essence of the sun and moon, appearing quite mystical.
"The Holy Spirit of Yaochi?" Lu Zhao stared at the unusual stone.
"How did you know, fellow Daoist?" The Holy Maiden of Yaochi's expression changed.
This source stone did indeed contain a Holy Spirit, but until the end of the original story, this Holy Spirit never came into being.
Moreover, the Holy Spirit is not a peaceful being; the instinct for killing is ingrained in one's very being.
"I possess the Origin Technique, so I can naturally see through the cause and effect. I still advise Yaochi to act cautiously and not follow the old path of some holy lands, which ultimately led to the destruction of the entire sect," Lu Zhao said, shaking his head at the crowd.
"This is a benevolent spirit..." said one of the Supreme Elders of Yaochi. They naturally knew this, but there were some secrets they could not reveal.
"You may think you have some methods, even the means to influence such a being, but have you ever considered that this is a perfected Holy Spirit, who, upon birth, is infinitely close to an Emperor? What means do you have to influence an Emperor?"
"Young friend, you may not know this, but since this stone was obtained from Yaochi, many sages have chanted scriptures for it and transmitted some benevolent ideas."
"Never mind, it doesn't matter anyway." Lu Zhao was speechless at this point.
In the end, the Holy Spirit did not choose to be born.
So let's just leave it to fate; he'll just have to do what he's supposed to do.
Just then, Elder Yaochi arrived with a young man whose aura was powerful and whose blood energy was extremely vigorous.
Sure enough, under Lu Zhao's all-seeing eye, he saw through the young man's changes.
It is the Fighting Holy Ape, whom I once saw in the Yaoguang Stone Workshop.
"You've cultivated the Heavenly Eye?" The Holy Prince walked towards him.
"Not bad, you've managed to cultivate the Heavenly Eye by sheer luck." Lu Zhao nodded slightly.
"Holy Ape, please," an elder from Yaochi invited.
The Holy Prince walked to the strange stone, cut open his wrist, and a lot of blood flowed out, falling onto the nine-aperture, eight-hole strange stone.
"Please, young friend, do your part and guide the blood into the strange stone," an elder from Yaochi said, asking Lu Zhao to help them nourish the strange stone.
Lu Zhao immediately activated his Origin Technique, leaving countless Dao traces on the strange stone.
The strange stone shone brightly, and at the same time, all nine orifices opened, swallowing and exhaling the essence of the sun, absorbing all the holy blood that had flowed down, and its vitality became much stronger, constantly trembling.
"Please stay a few more days, as this stone needs some nourishment," said the Holy Maiden of Yaochi, inviting the two to stay.
"Of course, no problem." Lu Zhao nodded slightly.
Lu Zhao stayed in Yaochi for the time being, becoming a distinguished guest of the Yaochi Holy Land.
At Lu Zhao's request, he lived very close to the Immortal Tears Tower.
The strands of Dao principles hanging from the Immortal Tears Tower can be comprehended by Lu Zhao to improve his strength and make him more powerful.
He even wanted to use the West Emperor Tower to put more pressure on himself.
By making one's foundation more and more solid, until it becomes completely uncontrollable, one will naturally enter the Dragon Transformation Realm without having to actively break through.
For the next few days, Lu Zhao spent almost all his time cultivating here.
Comprehend the principles within the Western Emperor Tower and continuously refine yourself through its various secret realms.
Connect the major secret realms, and then enter the Dragon Transformation Secret Realm in one fell swoop.
In the past few days, more and more young people have arrived. These are all holy sons of various religions, and there are even many royal figures from the Central Plains.
These people came to Yaochi to participate in the grand event, and they also wanted to show their skills here.
The royal family of Zhongzhou, in particular, still looked down on most of the holy sons of the Eastern Wilderness, believing that these people were too weak.
Indeed, most of the holy sons in the Eastern Wilderness are relatively mediocre in strength.
It's fine for ordinary people, but if they were to face these king-level bodies, the difference in strength would become apparent; the two are simply not on the same level.
In the Eastern Wilderness, only a few people, such as the Holy Son of Yao Guang and Ji Haoyue, are worthy of their high regard and are classified as being on the same level.
After nourishing the strange stone, Lu Zhao prepared to return to his residence to comprehend the Dao principles.
However, the news was seen by several holy sons and spread instantly.
Instantly, all the holy sons and the royal bodies of Zhongzhou rushed over.
"Ye Fan, you're hiding here?" a royal body from Zhongzhou shouted.
"Why are you using this trick again?" another member of the royal team shouted.
"Heh, if you looked different, we might not have recognized you so quickly. That's your own problem."
"I am not the Holy Body Ye Fan. There are some Source Technique Masters over there. Please come and ask them if I have changed. Wouldn't that reveal the truth?" Lu Zhao pointed to the crowd.
Soon, a master of Origin Arts arrived and carefully examined Lu Zhao's face.
"This young friend is in his original form; he did not use any transformation techniques," the Source Technique Master concluded.
Upon hearing the conclusion of the Source Technique Grandmaster, all the young people's expressions changed immediately.
From that moment on, they finally understood one thing: a powerful figure comparable to a Saint Body had grown up.
In the future, what will weigh on their heads, besides the Holy Body, will also be this young man.
"What's going on? Could he really not be Ye Fan? Have we been mistaking him for someone else all this time?" a Holy Son asked in confusion.
"I don't care if you are Ye Fan or not. We came all the way from Zhongzhou for you. No matter what you look like or whether you have a Holy Body, we will still take action," said one of the King-level experts.
"This is the Feather King, who is said to be able to continuously transform his body into feathers, and his strength will increase by one point after each transformation."
"Behind him are the Twin Kings of Zhongzhou. If these two physiques were to fight individually, they might not be that strong, but together they are practically invincible. Even Jiang Taixu, the God King of the Eastern Wilderness, could only kill the previous Twin Kings separately."
