Someone reminded Xie Li that the Blood Mirror Pool was a forbidden area for the scorpion people, the cultivation ground of the Scorpion King, and no one was allowed to enter without permission.
“So what? All I know is that, in this situation, only the water from the Blood Mirror Pool can save Ling Xiao! Do you really want to watch him die? Is this how we scorpion people treat our benefactors?”
Xie Li roared in anger.
“I was just saying, don’t get angry. What I mean is, can he withstand the water from the Blood Mirror Pool? What if we fail to save him and end up killing him instead?”
The scorpion person smiled bitterly.
Xie Li looked at Ling Xiao and asked, “Young Master, will you go or not?”
“Go!”
Ling Xiao had no choice.
He was not afraid of death.
But he did not want to die either!
Since the Blood Mirror Pool offered a chance for him to survive, he had to try.
He, who was not even afraid of Temur Mutu, would he fear cultivating in a forbidden place like the Blood Mirror Pool?
…
The Blood Mirror Pool was not a small pond.
Only after being brought in by Xie Li did Ling Xiao realise that the place was full of winding paths, the space was extremely vast, and the structure was highly complex.
If someone unfamiliar entered, they would definitely be trapped inside.
At the entrance, Xie Li was so nervous that she did not know how to proceed.
She had never been here before and had no idea which path to take.
“Take the third path from the right.”
Ling Xiao said.
Xie Li was stunned for a moment, but she still followed his instructions and walked over.
Although his body was extremely weak, Ling Xiao’s soul was perfectly normal. Relying on his powerful soul force to determine the correct path was not difficult for him.
In the deep and eerie paths, a strange atmosphere permeated, making people feel very oppressed.
Xie Li held Ling Xiao even tighter, partly to prevent anything happening to him, and partly, naturally, because she was afraid.
Ahead on this path, faint lights kept flickering.
Xie Li immediately breathed a sigh of relief.
Although she had never entered, she had heard the Scorpion King describe the general scene of entering the Blood Mirror Pool. Since there was light ahead, it was basically correct.
Closer now, the light grew brighter.
After passing through the deep path, Ling Xiao and Xie Li were surprised to discover that inside was actually a huge space.
The space here was no smaller than the Scorpion King’s palace.
In the centre of the palace was a blazing fireball.
Strangely, this fireball actually formed a three-dimensional Tai Chi diagram shape.
That is, a Tai Chi sphere.
Half was white, half was black.
And within you there is me, within me there is you, emitting a gentle light.
Near this Tai Chi sphere, there was also a small room, which should be where the Scorpion King usually cultivated. The room was not large, but it was made of special materials that could absorb both black and white energies simultaneously.
“Sister Xie Li, is this the Blood Mirror Pool?”
Ling Xiao could not help feeling somewhat puzzled.
Should the Blood Mirror Pool not be a pool of water?
“I don’t know either. This is not quite like what the Scorpion King described. According to the Scorpion King, at the end of the passage, there should be a small blood pool, and inside it is stored the greatest treasure of our scorpion tribe, the Blood Mirror.”
Xie Li smiled bitterly.
“Could we have made a mistake?”
Ling Xiao was stunned for a moment. Just now, when he used his soul force to confirm the passages, he discovered that two of them had effects that aided healing and cultivation, but this one was clearly stronger.
Could it be that this was a place even the Scorpion King had never been to?
And what was that room about?
Ling Xiao’s mind was a bit confused.
Never mind, just trust his intuition.
“Sister Xie Li, take me over there.”
Ling Xiao made his decision.
This was the choice his soul told him, and he believed it would not be wrong.
Xie Li nodded, holding Ling Xiao as she walked towards the Tai Chi sphere.
The moment they approached the Tai Chi sphere, the huge sphere actually began to rotate faster, and then the black side generated a terrifying suction force, pulling the two of them inside.
“Sister Xie Li, hold on to me tightly!”
Ling Xiao’s voice rang out in the darkness.
Xie Li thought Ling Xiao was afraid, but little did she know that the instant they were sucked into the Tai Chi sphere, Ling Xiao had already sensed the terrifying power of this Tai Chi sphere.
Without hesitation, he released his entire Mountain River Martial Soul.
Only the Mountain River Martial Soul could withstand such terrifying power.
If Xie Li was too far away, she would definitely die.
Day and night alternated, rotating ceaselessly.
Ling Xiao could feel the Mountain River Martial Soul beginning to operate at full speed.
The two terrifying energies released by the Tai Chi sphere were actually swallowed, absorbed, and transformed by the Mountain River Martial Soul without reservation.
Xie Li held Ling Xiao tightly as she stood there, and the energy overflowing from the Mountain River Martial Soul also seeped into her body.
“Sister Xie Li, don’t overthink it. Start cultivating. I don’t know what this Tai Chi sphere is, but for now, it is extremely beneficial to both of us. It will definitely help your cultivation advance greatly.”
Hearing Ling Xiao’s words, Xie Li nodded, closed her eyes, and began to allow those powers to surge into her body, rather than resisting them.
Ling Xiao did not resist either.
The Tai Chi sphere energy transformed through the Mountain River Martial Soul permeated every part of his body, beginning to repair his nearly shattered internal organs and heavenly veins.
His flesh and blood turned into pure energy forms.
Ling Xiao’s body began another completely new evolution.
After this evolution, his comprehension of the mysteries of light and shadow would likely experience a tremendous leap.
Of course, this was just Ling Xiao’s speculation.
Given the current situation, his judgement should be correct.
Because everything was developing in a positive direction.
The Tai Chi sphere grew smaller and smaller, while the Red Sun in the Mountain River Martial Soul grew larger and larger, releasing increasingly astonishing energy.
The Eye of the World also began to undergo certain special changes, becoming smaller and smaller, until finally it actually merged into Ling Xiao’s left eye.
It was no longer an ability separate from Ling Xiao’s body, but had become an ability of Ling Xiao himself.
The colour of his left eye also began to change. The pupil actually turned into the appearance of a Tai Chi sphere, rotating and emitting terrifying energy, completely connected to the sea of his soul.
This left eye could not only see through all flaws in martial arts, see scenes hundreds of miles away, and release terrifying soul force to control enemies’ souls.
Even more terrifying was that the several abilities of the original “Soul Judgement” had also merged into the left eye.
The predecessor of “Soul Judgement” was “Soul Dice”, a type of soul secret art.
But whether it was a secret art or not, it had always been an external object.
But now it was different. It was no longer a secret art, but had become an ability of Ling Xiao himself.
No need to cultivate; as Ling Xiao’s strength increased, it would continuously strengthen.
Tai Chi Eye!
Yes, let’s call it the Tai Chi Eye.
The Tai Chi Eye is a special ability that can be concealed normally. If he wants to use it, he can activate it through soul force.
This way, he can hide this terrifying ability.
In future battles, it will become even more fearsome.
