Blood Fairy was about to take action. She told Lu Li the pros and cons.
After all, the pond was the core of the sacred mountain. If something were to happen to the pond, then the sacred mountain would be affected as well. By then, the powerful warriors of the sacred mountain would be alerted and that Asmodian Lord would sense it at once.
The advantage of taking action was that Lu Li might be able to refine the pond and control the entire sacred mountain.
With the sacred mountain, Lu Li's abilities would be enhanced. He might even be able to fight against Saint Emperors. At the very least … Saint Emperors might not be able to kill him.
Of course, this was just Lu Li's speculation. He thought for a while and asked, "Blood Fairy, what do you think is the possibility of taking control of the pond?
Also, what kind of changes would occur in the Refining Heavenly Lake?
I will have to face Asmodian Lord after I take control of the pond. Can the sacred mountain save my life? "
Blood Fairy pondered for a moment before replying, "Master, I think there's a sixty percent chance of refining the Celestial Lake, but I don't know what will happen if I do.
Asmodian Lord?
I don't know exactly how strong Asmodian Lord is. But if you can take control of the sacred mountain, I think you can stay alive. Not even a dozen Saint Emperors working together can crack the mountain. "
"Can't crack it?"
Lu Li was intrigued. If he could take control of the pond quickly, then he could use the sacred mountain to fend off Asmodian Lord's attacks and he could survive.
Sixty percent!
Blood Fairy had always been conservative. She would not say anything she was not sure of.
If she said sixty percent, then it must be at least seventy percent. Seventy percent was worth the gamble.
"Deal!"
Lu Li was determined. He had offended too many Asmodians in the Asmodians' Abyss. If he could not improve, sooner or later, he would be in trouble.
Cultivating in the pond for 10 years did not improve his abilities. The Realm of Dharma had changed, but Lu Li did not think it had improved his abilities.
What was more, he had killed two warriors from the Asmodian Abyss. If this was exposed, he would be skinned alive, or at the very least, alive.
He had absorbed so much energy from the pond. Who knew if the pond would be in trouble? Therefore, he decided to take a gamble. If he could take control of the sacred mountain, he might be able to embark on a different path.
"Blood Fairy, do it!"
He shouted and flew out of the heavenly pool. He landed on the shore and sat down cross-legged. Then, he closed his eyes and activated the Mark of the Great Path to sense everything around him.
Blood Fairy dived to the bottom of the lake and began to forcibly take control of its core.
This was the moment when the Formation of Heaven's Pool was at its weakest and the best time to control it. If they missed this chance, Blood Fairy would not have another chance, and neither would Lu Li.
Lu Li used the Trace of Dao to sense everything at the bottom of the pond. He could tell that Blood Fairy was moving around like a dragon.
Blood Fairy was surrounded by countless threads that looked like poisonous snakes.
But those poisonous snakes were too weak to stop Blood Fairy. Blood Fairy was like a dragon crossing a river, roaring as she moved forward.
"Whoosh ~"
The water in the pond was rippling. Lu Li was nervous as well.
Blood Fairy's refining of the Celestial Pool had caused the Divine Formation of the Celestial Pool to vibrate, which in turn caused the Celestial Pool to behave strangely. Right now, the vibrations weren't that serious, but if they were to get bigger, the strong warriors of the Demonic Abyss would definitely be alerted.
"Hurry up!"
Lu Li prayed to himself. His hair was standing on end. He kept an eye on the surroundings, fearing that Sacred Ancestor Guang would suddenly come.
He had to admit that Lu Li was lucky …
Sacred Ancestor Guang was cultivating. Since the Celestial Pool was a restricted area and it was in the recovery period, the bottom of the Celestial Pool was sealed off. No one from the imperial family could come in.
No powerful warriors of the Demonic Abyss were paying attention to the Celestial Pool. At the moment, Lu Li was the only one above the Celestial Pool.
Therefore, the ripples in the Celestial Pool did not alarm any powerful warriors of the Demonic Abyss. Of course, if the ripples were too strong, the sacred mountain would tremble, which would be needless to say.
The ripples in the Celestial Pool were growing stronger!
Blood Fairy was controlling the Formation of Heaven's Pool by force. Since it was a formation from the Divinity, it must have a spirit.
Even though the formation was weak at the moment, it would not be willing to be controlled by Blood Fairy. Naturally, it would resist.
Once it did, it would trigger the formation, which in turn would cause the ripples in the Celestial Pool.
"Splash, splash, splash ~"
An hour later, the ripples in the Celestial Pool were getting stronger. Lu Li had an idea. He released a stream of airflow to suppress the ripples in the Celestial Pool.
"Good, this is good!"
Lu Li breathed in relief. He had sealed off the Celestial Pool so that it could not move. As a result, the ripples would not be so loud and the Asmodian Lord would not be alarmed.
Lu Li had underestimated the situation!
An hour later, Lu Li noticed that the surface of the Celestial Pool was trembling. It was slight, but he could feel it clearly.
"Oh no …"
Lu Li was taken aback. The ground around the Celestial Pool was shaking. He could not stop it now.
As the ripples grew stronger, the entire sacred mountain would tremble. By then, the Asmodian Lord and the Asmodian Lord would notice something was wrong even if they were a pig.
"Blood Fairy, how much longer?"
Lu Li asked at once. Blood Fairy did not reply. She was moving faster and faster at the bottom of the Celestial Pool. She was moving around like a bolt of lightning.
Time moved on. The tremors on the ground were getting stronger. Lu Li was nervous. He knew that soon, some powerful warriors would notice something was wrong.
Blood Fairy did not reply, which meant that she was at a critical moment. Every second was a race against time. It all depended on whether the Asmodian Lord could sense it in advance.
"No, the Asmodian Lord will sense it soon. I have to figure something out …"
Lu Li thought quickly. He came up with an idea. He lay on the shore and concealed his energy. His breathing became insignificant. At the same time, he shut off his senses and pretended that he was in a coma.
He used the Trace of Dao to sense the situation around him. In this way, even if some powerful warriors from the Abyss of Asmodians were to check, they would not be too concerned.
Just as he had expected!
For a dozen breaths after Lu Li pretended to be in a coma, a surge of psychic power suddenly came. Then, more than a dozen of psychic powers came. The weaker ones must be at the Asmodian Lord's level.
Those psychic powers locked on to the Celestial Pool and then passed over Lu Li. But they did not linger on Lu Li for long. Eventually, they all stopped at Blood Fairy at the bottom of the Celestial Pool.
"Whoosh!"
With some noises, more than a dozen people flew up from the bottom. They were more than a dozen elders. They were the Asmodian Lords that stayed to guard the Celestial Pool. That Asmodian Lord did not come.
Those Asmodian Lords were in a state of panic. They did not pay attention to Lu Li. After all, Lu Li's energy was not strong. They had heard that there was a human that surrendered.
"What is this thing?
How dare it come to the bottom of the Celestial Pool? "
"Whatever it is, we cannot let it destroy the formation in the Celestial Pool. Patriarch Seven, kill this thing!"
"Yes, kill this thing now. If anything goes wrong, we will all be sinners of the Abyss of Sacred Abyss!"
Several Asmodian Lords shouted. One of them had a glowing vertical eye. He was about to use soul attack to kill Blood Fairy.
Lu Li was nervous. Success or failure depended on this. At that moment, Blood Fairy suddenly said, "Master, come down to the Celestial Pool, now!"
