The Realm of Magic was completely closed off and had no connection with the outside world. The energy in the Realm of Magic would not dissipate on its own unless Lu Li mobilized it. Then where did that strand of energy go?
Lu Li was excited. If the energy disappeared, then it must have gone somewhere. If he could find that strand of energy, he might be able to find a solution.
Lu Li began to search at once. Soon, he found a clue.
He found a strand of residual energy in the barrier of the Realm of Magic. It was so small that it was almost indiscernible. But Lu Li could tell that it was different from origin energy.
Lu Li observed for a long time. To his surprise, the energy was being absorbed by the Dharma Realm. The Dharma Realm was absorbing the energy Lu Li transferred in.
If it could be absorbed, then the energy could be transformed, right?
Why was the Realm of Magic absorbing the energy?
Either there would be changes in the Realm of Magic or the energy would be transformed.
Lu Li was cheered up by this realization. He quickly extracted the energy from his body and channeled it into the Realm of Magic.
The Realm of Magic was large. It wouldn't matter even if all the energy in Lu Li's body was drained. He could just let the Realm of Magic absorb the energy for nothing.
The energy was constantly being absorbed. The energy in Lu Li's body was decreasing and he didn't feel so bad anymore.
Lu Li channeled energy faster and faster. The energy in the Realm of Magic was increasing as well.
Lu Li even extracted the energy from his soul and channeled it into the Realm of Magic.
Then, he waited quietly for the Realm of Magic to absorb the energy and see if it could be transformed into pure energy.
"Eh?"
Qian Gang and the others noticed that Lu Li was no longer trembling and he had calmed down. They were confused.
Lu Li's previous expression was not an act. He was really in pain.
What did it mean? Lu Li had found a solution.
Qi Tianyu was the most upset. He had thought something would happen to Lu Li and he was ready to watch the show. Little did he know that Lu Li was fine.
Lady Jing looked at Lu Li, deep in thought. She said nothing and closed her eyes to cultivate.
Lu Li channeled some energy into the Realm of Magic and the energy was being absorbed gradually.
He looked on eagerly, hoping that the Realm of Magic could transform some pure energy. After all, he had been cultivating here for so many years. He was essentially working for the Realm of Magic. If he couldn't spare some energy, then what was the point of cultivating here?
This Heavenly Lake was also wasted.
Half a month had passed. Most of the energy in Lu Li's body had been drawn into the Dharma Realm and the Dharma Realm had absorbed a lot of energy as well.
But to Lu Li's disappointment …
The Dharma Realm had absorbed so much energy, but there was no change. It didn't grow any faster, and it didn't transform any pure energy for Lu Li to absorb. It was as if the Dharma Realm had been absorbed in vain.
Lu Li had no other choice but to extract more energy. He was in the pond and the energy in the pond was constantly flowing into his body. If he did not, he would feel bloated again.
"Forget it, we should keep the goodies within the family!"
Lu Li continued to observe for more than half a month. Then he closed his eyes and began to cultivate. Every once in a while, when his body couldn't take it anymore, he would extract some energy.
He wanted to wait. Perhaps after a few months or a year or two, there would be some changes in the Dharma Realm, or perhaps it would transform into pure energy?
He continued to study the soul skill taught to him by the Swan Ancestor. This soul skill was an offensive skill, a single attack skill, similar to a sword of soul. Lu Li did not know the specific power. He would have to study it thoroughly before he could find out.
Every half a year, Lu Li would stop cultivation, extract some energy from his body and soul and send it to the Dharma Realm.
Still, the Dharma Realm didn't change much. It was just growing larger, but it couldn't be transformed.
Soon, two years had passed. Lu Li didn't even bother to look at the Dharma Realm anymore. Every time he went with hope, he would come back disappointed.
The Dharma Realm was the same as before. Not much had changed.
On the contrary, Lu Li had made great progress in studying the soul skill taught to him by the Swan Ancestor. He believed that after he finished cultivating in the pond, he could master the skill.
Time flew by. Soon, two and a half years had passed. Lu Li had been cultivating in the pond for nine and a half years. In another half a year, he would finish cultivating in the pond.
Qian Gang and the others had all made significant progress, but Qi Tianyu was the most obvious.
Since Lord Qian Gang and Qian Liu had been to the pond, and some of them had been here twice, the effect was not so obvious.
Qi Tianyu's physical body, on the other hand, had made significant progress. His qi and energy were more than 10 times stronger than before. When he went out this time, he would be more powerful than the middle stage of the Asmodian Lord. He might not be able to defeat Qian Gang and the others, but he wouldn't be far behind.
Lu Li's change was the least. Most of the energy Lu Li absorbed was taken away from the Dharma Realm. Otherwise, he would explode and die.
Of course, it was not to say that he didn't make progress. His physical body was two or three times stronger and so was his soul.
If he could absorb all the energy, he would be about the same as Qi Tianyu.
Lu Li was disappointed!
He had thought that after 10 years of cultivation, his abilities would be improved by leaps and bounds. He didn't expect that it would be so little.
He had offended many people this time. Qian Gang, Qian Liu and Qian Yu must be his sworn enemies. When he left the pond, they would think of ways to torture him.
He was an unyielding man. He might make a scene and be killed by the three.
But what could he do?
There was nothing he could do. He was not born in the Abyss of Devils. The Pool of Ancestors there rejected him. It was good enough that he could survive and his soul was two or three times stronger.
He had more energy in his body but he didn't stop. The soul skill taught by the Swan Ancestor was at the most critical moment.
If everything went well, in three or four months at most, he would be able to master it. By then, he could leave this place.
"Phew, phew!"
Qi Tianyu opened his eyes, which were filled with excitement. Not only had his physical body and soul become ten times stronger, but he had also comprehended a powerful Dharma Art in the past ten years. It was a Dharma Art that he had failed to comprehend for many years. It was the Sacred Ancestor Tian's signature move.
He had been transformed since he entered the pond to cultivate. He believed that he could defeat Qian Yu easily. Qian Liu and Qian Gang might not be able to defeat them, but they couldn't kill him either.
"Qian Jing, I will make you see me in a different light. I will conquer you."
Qi Tianyu looked at Lady Jing with glistening eyes. In the past, he didn't dare to have wild ambitions. Now that he was more powerful, he was tempted.
His powerful abilities gave him confidence. He also wanted to win over this beautiful goddess that all the young warriors in the Abyss wanted.
"Ha, ha!"
Qi Tianyu looked at Lu Li, but he could not hide his murderous intent. He could tell that Lu Li's abilities didn't improve much, which meant that Lu Li was less important to Ancestor Tian.
Qi Tianyu's status would be elevated as well as his abilities.
It would be easy for him to kill Lu Li, not to mention that Qian Gang and the others wanted to cut Lu Li into pieces as well …
