A month later…
After leaving the woods, Liu Mufeng and his party of six finally found the first medicinal pool.
“Medicinal Pool, we found a Medicinal Pool!” Jiang Xu was overjoyed.
“En, we finally found a Medicinal Pool.” Feng Pianpian was also very excited.
“Everyone, don’t get too close.” Liu Mufeng stopped within 20 meters and carefully observed the medicinal pool.
This medicinal pool was an open-air medicinal pool built at the outermost part of the woods. It was a three meter square pool enclosed by cut green stones. A purple liquid flowed from the pool, glistening under the refraction of the sunlight. Next to the pool was a stone monument, the front of which was written with the three words “Lightning Bath Pool” in Stone Clan characters. On the back were also some detailed introductions about the Lightning Bathing Pool written in the same characters.
Seeing that Liu Mufeng stopped moving forward, the others also stopped, and observed the Stone Clan’s Medicinal Pool.
“Lightning Bath Pool, this pool is used for body training. It should be very good to use it with the Lightning System body training method.” Looking at the pool, Liu Mufeng said so.
“Lightning Bath Pool? That is the name of the pool?” Jiang Xu asked in a puzzled manner, raising his eyebrows.
“En, it’s written on it.” Nodding, Liu Mufeng pointed to the stone tablet.
“Oh.” Nodding, Jiang Xu expressed his understanding.
Raising his hand, Liu Mufeng threw the corpse of a first-level rabbit directly into the Lightning Bath.
“Bump……”
The rabbit’s body was thrown into the pool, splashing a large amount of water, but soon, the rabbit disappeared into the medicinal pool.
“Disappeared!” Seeing the rabbit that disappeared in the blink of an eye, everyone was shocked.

“Oh.” Nodding, Jiang Xu expressed his understanding.
“In a while, let’s release the Beast Fires together to attack, and you, Pianpian and Feng Nie, will also attack with us.” As he spoke, Liu Mufeng glanced at the two people.
“Okay.” Nodding, Feng Nie agreed.
“Understood.” This month, Liu Mufeng would get Feng Pianpian to fight when encountering demon beasts that were relatively less dangerous. Although she still had a tough time fighting against them, it was still better than the previous time when she was caught by Blood-Sucking Willow and could only scream for help.
The five people attacked together, and the three Beast Fires and two phoenix flames directly attacked the medicinal pool. The flames swept across the lake aggressively, making a crackling sound from time to time. This made the six people present immediately realize that their flames had burned something.
The flames of the five continued to burn for half an hour before they all stopped.
Taking out the corpse of a low-level demon beast, Liu Mufeng threw it into the medicinal pool again. This time, it didn’t disappear immediately, but floated on the lake. Worried that the insects would not have been fully exterminated, Liu Mufeng released some less powerful Golden Spirit Insects to test the water, and only called them back after confirming that there was no problem.
“Can we soak in the medicinal pool now?” Feng Pianpian asked.
“No rush, let’s take precautions first.” As he spoke, Liu Mufeng looked at Jiang Xu. “XiaoXu, take Xuanxuan and the others to set up traps.”
“Okay.” Nodding, Jiang Xu took out his sword, flew up and slashed around the medicinal pool.
Looking at the deep ditches on the ground, Feng Pianpian raised her eyebrows. Neither Bai Yunfei nor Feng Nie quite understood what Jiang Xu was going to do. It wasn’t until Liu Xuan, Xiaoyue, and Xiaoyuan took out a lot of ugly magic weapons and buried them in those pits that they realized that they were going to use magic weapons and explosive beads to create traps.
After watching from the side for a little while and determining the steps of filling the ditches, the three people also immediately went over to help.
Taking out a level six protective array disk too, Liu Mufeng looked around the Medicinal Pool. Measured the alignment and directly activated the protective array disk; a transparent cover encircled directly over the pool.
When the surrounding traps and protective array were set up, only then the crowd flew into the medicinal pool to soak.
“Oh, it hurts.” Among the six people, Feng Pianpian’s physical skill was the weakest, so she felt very uncomfortable soaking in this kind of Lightning bath.
“Everyone has a Lightning Quenching Body Technique, right? It would be better to soak in the medicinal pool while cultivating the technique.” Liu Mufeng asked the others.
“Mufeng, I don’t have one, and neither does my Third Brother.” Feng Pianpian said helplessly.
“I have it here.” Saying that, Jiang Xu took out the technique manual and handed it to Feng Pianpian. This one was once given to him by Mufeng.
“Good, thank youXiaoXu.” Softly thanking the other party, Feng Pianpian immediately took the manual. Thankfully, Chenchen had taught her human script, otherwise, this method would be useless to her.
Feng Pianpian could read and understand, but Feng Nei did not know human script, so Feng Pianpian could only help her Third Brother translate the text.
Slowly closing their eyes, Liu Mufeng, Jiang Xu, Liu Xuan, Bai Yunfei, Xiaoyue, Xiaoyuan each began to cultivate using the skill manual to absorb the power of lightning in the medicinal pool. But the Feng siblings were still learning the techniques.
Liu Mufeng, Jiang Xu, Bai Yunfei, Xiaoyue and Xiaoyuan, who were all at the Spiritual Profound Realm, could soak in the Lightning pool for a long time. However, Feng Pianpian, Feng Nei and Liu Xuan could not. The strength of the three people was only at the Spiritual Emperor Realm. Feng Pianpian could only stand about half a month of soaking at a time. Feng Nei and Liu Xuan also lasted only a month before leaving the pool.
In order to train Feng Pianpian, Liu Xuan released one of his level four puppets and let Feng Pianpian practice sparring with the puppet. He, on the other hand, practiced sparring with Feng Nei. The three of them sparred by the pool for a few days before returning to the pool once again to soak. When they couldn’t stand it they would come out again to spar together.

Ten years later,
Feng Pianpian, Feng Nie and Liu Xuan sat by the pool and chatted together.
“Pianpian, you’ve improved a lot now, you can soak in the pool for three months.” Feng Nie said with satisfaction.
“It’s okay, I’m more used to it than when I first came here, but I still can’t compare with Mufeng and the others.” Having said that, Feng Pianpian looked enviously at Liu Mufeng, Jiang Xu, Bai Yunfei and others in the pool.
“Don’t think about it, Aunt Feng. We are at the Spiritual Emperor Realm, and they are at the Spiritual Profound Realm, we can’t compare with them.” Liu Xuan sighed. His two Fathers had soaked here for ten years, and they had not left the Lightning Bath Pool more than ten times. This made Liu Xuan very envious.
“En, that’s true, but Xuanxuan, your strength has also improved very quickly. It’s only been ten years, and you have advanced to a small realm. You are already four stars in the Spiritual Emperor Realm.” Feng Pianpian was very envious.
“My strength is not as high as Aunt Feng’s, so it’s easier to advance to the next level. Aunt Feng and Uncle Feng are going to advance to the big realm, so it won’t be easy.” In fact, in the past ten years, everyone has had the same strength. Their growth and physical fitness had also improved a lot. It’s just that Liu Xuan didn’t need to advance to the great realm, so his strength improvement was more obvious, while the others were not so obvious.
“En, that’s true, it’s quite troublesome to advance to the big realm.” Feng Pianpian sighed.
“Sister, don’t be discouraged, your strength has improved a lot. We have only been here for ten years, and there are still ninety years left, right? Besides, this Lightning bath is used for body training. Soaking here will improve body strength so the improvement will not be too obvious. If we can find a medicinal pool to improve our strength, then we will improve our strength faster by soaking in that kind of pool.” Feng Nie comforted his Sister.
“En, that’s true.” Nodding, Feng Pianpian agreed.
While the three of them were chatting, they saw two cultivators, a man and a woman, running past them and running directly into the woods.
“Hey, that seems to be Fang Xing and Liao Shanshan, right? They’re running in such a rush, they couldn’t be chased by demon beasts, right?” Feng Pianpian asked.
“They looked very much like being chasedah.” Nodding, Liu Xuan also felt that the appearance of the two cultivators fleeing in a hurry was very similar to being chased.
“Do you know them?” Feng Nie asked curiously.
“Know them? Those two were alchemists who had challenged Mufeng before, however, they were defeated by Mufeng. They lost 200 million spirit stones to Mufeng!” Speaking of this, Feng Pianpian smiled.
“Yes, they are very nice people. They gave my two Fathers 200 million spirit stones to practice.” Nodding, Liu Xuan said the same.
“Oh, that’s it.” Hearing this, Feng Nie twitched the corners of his mouth, and thought to himself:These two people were really unlucky. They lost 200 million spirit stones in a competition with their peers, and now came the ruins of the Stone Clan, and were being chased by demon beasts. What bad luck.
Not long after, five black-clothed cultivators chased after them. The leader of the black-clothed men looked at the Lightening bath in the protective shield. Then he looked at Liu Xuan’s group of 3 who were chatting at the side. “Since you can’t bear the power of the Medicinal Pool, get out and let us use the Medicinal Pool.”
Liu Xuan sneered. This was the sixteenth group they had met in ten years, people who tried to take away their opportunity. “Come and get it if you want it.”
“Stinky boy, are you courting death?” The black-robed cultivator was very upset when he saw that a boy with only four stars in the Spiritual Emperor Realm dared to speak harshly to him, a nine-star cultivator in the Spiritual Profound Realm.
