Chapter 1280: Demon Transformation Body Forging
With Ye Liuyun's physical body strength, a bit of it instantly melted away, showing how fierce this Demon Transformation Pool water is.
Lei Ming, seeing this, felt somewhat worried: 'What if this pool water melts us away and we can't recover?'
He was worried that his appearance would be ruined.
'No way! I already asked the Demon Race beforehand; they'll recover afterward!' Ye Liuyun confirmed.
'Alright then!' Lei Ming verbally agreed, but still tightly gripped Ye Liuyun's hand, having him lead the way down.
The clone directly jumped in.
A 'hiss' sound immediately rang out, and the clone's clothes were instantly melted away.
Moreover, the clone's complexion immediately turned painful.
'This pool water is highly corrosive. You'd better jump in all at once; otherwise, you won't have the courage to go further in!' the clone reminded them.
'Good!' Ye Liuyun also gritted his teeth, grabbed Lei Ming, and jumped straight in.
'Ah! I don't want to, I'm not ready yet…' Lei Ming, seeing the pool's horror, hesitated, but Ye Liuyun directly pulled him down.
She wanted to back out, but it was already too late.
'Plop,' he and Ye Liuyun both fell straight into the pool water.
Their clothes were instantly corroded away by the pool water.
'Ah!' Lei Ming cried out, immediately telling Ye Liuyun not to look at her.
She wasn't afraid Ye Liuyun would see her body, but afraid he'd see her skin being corroded and thus despise her.
At that moment, Ye Liuyun was enduring excruciating pain in his skin, and regardless of the reason, he had no mind to look at her.
'Hurry up and cultivate!' Ye Liuyun gritted his teeth, said that, then closed his eyes, fell silent, and focused on the hellish pain.
This feeling of pain was comparable to when he had previously taken body-tempering pills.
His entire skin was constantly melting away; he also had to exert himself fully, using True Essence to speed up the repair.
This time, the effect would be the same as when he recovered from battlefield injuries, and it would surely keep getting stronger.
However, this burning pain transmitted from the skin was more agonizing than being punched around or slashed with a knife.
Lei Ming quickly entered a cultivation state.
If he didn't focus on restoring his physical body, his speed couldn't keep up with the corrosion speed.
Thus, the three of them quickly became immersed, focusing on recovery.
What Ye Liuyun didn't know was that, at this moment, some Demon Race members who couldn't endure the pool's corrosion had run out of the Cultivation Room and been replaced by another batch entering.
Zuo Mu naturally also knew Ye Liuyun was extraordinary and would surely endure longer.
So he was also among the first to enter, wanting to compare with Ye Liuyun to see who could endure longer.
He had prior experience, having entered the Demon Transformation Pool once before, and moreover, the Demon Race's physical body is inherently far stronger than that of a Human Martial Cultivator. Therefore, he thought he should be able to stay inside longer than Ye Liuyun.
Ye Liuyun and the others were also exerting themselves fully to resist the pool water.
Soon, Lei Ming was the first to couldn't take it, jumped out from inside, and began restoring his physical body at the shore.
The nature of this pool water is that it constantly corrodes. Once a Martial Cultivator's True Essence is insufficient, they must come out immediately, otherwise the corrosion will reach inside the body, causing irreversible damage.
Although Lei Ming had also cultivated with Dual Essence Pills, his True Essence was fairly abundant.
But she constantly worried that her appearance would become ugly, so she dared not linger.
If she were allowed to cultivate in her true form, she wouldn't have this worry.
After she got ashore, she quickly recovered her appearance. After checking herself, she felt relatively satisfied and thus put her mind at ease.
In fact, her skin became even finer and smoother than before.
But to have her go back down and soak for a while, she no longer had that courage; the pain the pool water inflicts is not something ordinary people can bear.
So she quietly waited at the side for Ye Liuyun.
Ye Liuyun and the clone were now completely immersed in the pool water.
All the hair on his body had already been melted away.
The skin on his body was also constantly undergoing melting and repair; its current appearance looked quite terrifying.
But he knew this opportunity was rare, so unless absolutely necessary, he would absolutely not come out.
He and the clone both had Storage Yuan Stones, which could sustain them for a long time.
Thus, when half a day later, Zuo Mu came out of the Cultivation Room and learned that Ye Liuyun was still inside, he couldn't help but feel a deep sense of defeat.
'This Ye Liuyun is too strong! But he should probably come out by now!'
He thought that even if Ye Liuyun was stronger than him, it wouldn't be for too long, so he simply waited outside for Ye Liuyun.
However, this wait of his lasted three days.
Meanwhile, inside Ye Liuyun's Cultivation Room, there was still no movement.
'Could something have happened?'
Now not only Zuo Mu, but other Demon Race members as well had become worried, and they all had Zuo Mu go check.
Although doing so would disturb Ye Liuyun, after all it's not a cultivation realm disturbance; a brief interruption wouldn't cause any loss.
'Alright!'
Zuo Mu was also worried inside, so he went over and knocked on the door to inquire.
'I'm fine, still cultivating!' Ye Liuyun didn't even give him time to open the door, directly responding from inside.
Hearing the sound, Zuo Mu also relaxed.
But the surprise of him and the Demon Race folks was all reflected on their faces.
'Being able to stay in there that long?'
'He couldn't have not gone in, right?' Some also expressed doubt, thinking Ye Liuyun either had just gone in not long ago, or had gone in, stayed a while, come out, and then gone back in.
But no matter what, since Ye Liuyun was given a separate Cultivation Room, others also didn't feel good about disturbing him.
Anyway, there are still nine cultivation rooms, enough for some demon race members to take turns tempering their bodies.
Not everyone in the demon race is qualified to go in for body tempering; only those with high cultivation or who have earned merit get a chance to enter the demon transformation pool.
Ye Liuyun only emerged from the pool after another day or so.
The mysterious origin inside the storage yuan stone had been completely used up by him and his clone.
If they held on any longer, they might even be melted by the demon transformation pool.
So the clone couldn't hold up first, and Ye Liuyun directly recalled it back into the space world to recover.
And Ye Liuyun was the last one to come out.
When he came out of the water, Ye Liuyun's whole body had not a single patch of good skin, looking even uglier than a corpse demon.
But after recovering for a while, Ye Liuyun returned to his original state.
Although I don't know how strong his physical body is now, judging by the fineness and smoothness of his skin, it has indeed improved considerably compared to before.
"This time I should be able to withstand an attack from a peak heavenly sovereign expert, right?"
Ye Liuyun was secretly thinking that when Lei Ming saw he had recovered, he nevertheless lunged naked into his embrace.
"Ugh... here we go again!"
Ye Liuyun silently groaned in his heart.
"Hmph! Little brother, you're playing favorites! Aren't the other sisters also sleeping with you?" Lei Ming complained dissatisfiedly.
Meanwhile, his body kept rubbing against Ye Liuyun's embrace.
