Chapter 53 Unlock the Gloomy Dragon Pool

"Grumbling..."

Li Ping'an found that it was this deep and dark pool that the strange sound came from!

He soon noticed that it was the blood of the dead powerhouse in the interim of the Awakening Stage flowing into the pool with the torrential rain that caused the terrifying sound.

And together with this weird grumbling sound, a kind of powerful and weird trace of energy beyond description was rushing towards his face.

Li Ping'an suddenly realized there was something strange. So he jumped a few times quickly like a cheetah, returning to the safe zone where the edge of the beach met the woods. Then he stared at the strange phenomenon in the pool.

"It seems that this Gloomy Dragon Pool does own some energy, but to unlock it needs... a special medium?"

Li Ping'an was almost stunned to death.

However hard he had thought about it, it never occurred to him that blood should be the medium if he wanted to gain the energy of this Gloomy Dragon Pool...

"No wonder the people here used to call this place Gloomy Dragon Pool. It is... absolutely an evil place..."

Li Ping'an was so shocked that he even felt a little cold on the back.

It was not until that time had he realized that his previous rash actions were so risky...

If he...

Li Ping'an couldn't afford to think more.

But as the grumbling sound became louder and louder, the terrifying energy aura ignited Li Ping'an's ambition to fight and win!

"Tiangang team, Fairy Island Creature, Xiangyun Gene, MAD Group... these giant groups have all paid attention to this Gloomy Dragon Pool. I believe there must be some incredible treasures here! Otherwise, how can these giant groups make so many efforts for it?"

"What's more, though this Gloomy Dragon Pool is extremely dangerous, it would make sense if the creature inside would not take risk in such bad weather."

Li Ping'an was thinking hard.

He had also discussed this issue before with Lin Jianjia.

The perception of beasts was definitely more acute than that of humans. Even before the New Era, this had been confirmed by countless scientific arguments.

In other words, it was also why even the extremely ferocious beasts would hide in caves in such terrible weather. And neither would they rush out rashly.

However, human beings who had always believed in science and that "Man is more powerful than nature" dared to move out in the wilderness in such weather.

"I don't know what these ferocious beasts are afraid of right now or what kind of disaster this great variation will bring them after all. But these giant groups like the Tiangang team and Fairy Island Creature dared to take action, so they must have planned and rehearsed in detail and carefully!"

"What's more, I even don't feel anything strange at this time. Instead, I have gained quite a lot..."

Thinking about it, Li Ping'an kept his eyes sharper!

It sounded too good to be true.

Though Li Ping'an didn't have the great resources and opportunities like those children from great families, he would create them himself!

Carefully observing for a while, Li Ping'an discovered that although the water in the Gloomy Dragon Pool was constantly grumbling, which was obvious that the blood was not enough, so the reaction was still weak.

Li Ping'an thought for a moment and dragged the dead body of the powerhouse in the interim of the Awakening Stage back a bit. In this way, there wouldn't be too much blood flowing into the pool. Otherwise, he would lose control of it.

Immediately, he walked quickly to the edge of the woods and directly drank a bottle of five-star Nutrition Drop for the stone trace on his chest.

He wanted to cure the wound on his neck fast.

Otherwise, if he entered this Gloomy Dragon Pool with this wound, he would be in great danger.

Although he was bothered swallowing energy for the mysterious stone, its efficiency was always great after taking the energy.

Soon, Li Ping'an's neck was recovered.

Li Ping'an only felt relieved, "Now, it's easy to explain to Lin Jianjia. This kind of thing is too weird after all. I'd better discuss it with her before starting!"

Rush!

After a short break, Li Ping'an jumped fiercely and returned to where Lin Jianjia stayed at.

Lin Jianjia couldn't wait anymore. On seeing him, she was worried and hurried to ask what had happened.

Li Ping'an didn't dare to slight her. He told Lin Jianjia his experience briefly. And then he talked about the subtle means he found unconsciously to unlock the energy of Gloomy Dragon Pool.

"Blood is the medium..."

Lin Jianjia frowned her eyebrows with her white teeth biting her red lips forcefully.

In this regard, Li Ping'an knew nothing about it. So he did not dare to disturb Lin Jianjia in thinking. He just quietly enjoyed the wonderful fragrance of her body.

After a moment, Lin Jianjia said in a low voice, "Daniu, I don't know anything about this... There are few records. But I once heard the veterans in the team talk about this kind of thing before. It is a very unlucky symbol meaning the devil is about to be born! Daniu, you... do you really want to explore this Gloomy Dragon Pool?"

Li Ping'an's eyes were also slightly narrowed. And he immediately nodded his head and said, "Jianjia, no matter what creature it is, weak or evil, with such weather, it should not dare to do anything rashly! And we finally have such a chance. Isn't it a pity if we give up?!"

"Furthermore, you also said that I am nobody and God won't let me into the paradise! I don't want to let such an opportunity go!"

"..."

Lin Jianjia rolled her eyes inside, showing that she was speechless.

How could he tell such a good truth in this way...

However, Lin Jianjia also acknowledged Li Ping'an's unshakable determination at this time. She said in a deep voice, "Daniu, if you are determined to explore it, then don't be too anxious. You can throw those corpses of the Tiangang team into this lake and see what kind of reaction the Gloomy Dragon Pool will have after the blood has gathered!"

"If it is controllable, then let's have a try! If it turns to be out of our control, we should leave immediately without any hesitation!"

Li Ping'an nodded hurriedly. What Lin Jianjia had said was exactly what he was thinking about. He said, "Jianjia, could you wait for me here and help me if necessary? I would start now!"

"Ok!"

Lin Jianjia nodded and then said, "Daniu, you must be careful. After we leave Taihang Mountain and return to Nanzhili, I will feast you in the Hilton Hotel for a great meal."

Li Ping'an turned his head and smiled at Lin Jianjia, showing his white teeth, "Jianjia, don't worry. Even for this great meal, I will definitely come back alive!"

Huh!

After saying that, Li Ping'an jumped straight down the mountain.

Seeing Li Ping'an go away, Lin Jianjia bit her red lips harder and thought, "Daniu, you must come back alive!"

Arriving at the camp of the Tiangang team, Li Ping'an piled the tents together and classified their weapons. Then he put these tents and weapons on the beach.

He turned around and took the diving equipment. Then he set the weapons and aimed at the Gloomy Dragon Pool.

After doing these, he checked carefully, again and again, confirming that there was nothing left. Li Ping'an then threw these corpses together with the tents into Gloomy Dragon Pool. After that, he quickly returned to observe the changes in the pool.

"Grumbling..."

The eight corpses were put into the pool together. So the effectiveness of the blood was obviously much greater than when there was blood of only one.

The originally dark water of Gloomy Dragon Pool ended up to be b****y. And b****y bubbles appeared, which was extremely scary.

Li Ping'an's breath was also taken away for a moment. He stared at the lake, wondering if the big guy inside would be attracted by it and rush out.

Ten minutes passed... one quarter... half an hour...

More than an hour passed, but the pool was still bubbling as if boiling. Besides this, there was nothing strange happening.

The only strange phenomenon was that the energy aura covering the pool was much stronger, weird and terrifying.

"This big guy doesn't seem brave enough to resist such bad weather..."

Li Ping'an narrowed his eyes and clenched his fist, "D*mn it! No one could get treasure without any effort. With my perception ability and this energy guiding me, I could dive down to find the guy and treasure! The possibility... I believe it is at least 60 to 70%!"

"As long as I move as fast as I did at Scarp Swallow, it shouldn't be too difficult to escape..."

"Forget it! Let me follow my destiny! How can I lose my life easily?!"

Seeing that everything was okay, Li Ping'an didn't hesitate anymore. He quickly took off his suit and put on diving equipment.

As for him, this kind of opportunity was so rare that he would never let it go!

Children who grew up by the sea were adept at diving, and Li Ping'an was one of them. When he was in junior high school, he once worked as a training partner of diving for some time.

And the equipment he used now, which belonged to these adventurers, was much advanced and smarter than the ones he had used before.

Soon, Li Ping'an had adjusted the equipment to fit his habit.

Li Ping'an took more than a dozen daggers with him and checked his equipment and weapons again. Then he came to the pool cautiously.

He carefully tested the temperature of the seemingly boiling water.

But Li Ping'an did not expect that it would not be too hot. Although the temperature was a little higher than the freezing point, it was only ten degrees or so, which was within the acceptable range.

Li Ping'an was not in a hurry.

After observing for a while, he carefully dropped a dagger into the water area where bubbles were intense.

If the big guy really hibernated under the bubbles and observed him, then this guiding dagger should startle it to take some reaction.

Li Ping'an waited for a few minutes, but there was no reaction in the pool.

"Pooh!"

"Pooh... pooh... pooh..."

Li Ping'an dropped a dozen daggers one after another on more than ten spots around. Though they were splashing, there was still no reaction at all.

This also made Li Ping'an more confident.

"It seems that the big guy is really afraid of the bad weather and dare not act rashly!"

Li Ping'an didn't hesitate anymore. He slowly dived into the water from the area where had been detected just now.

With diving equipment and his eyesight, it was obvious that he could explore deeper than before.

After a short period of adaptation, Li Ping'an soon discovered that there was nothing unusual in the dark pool water.

The blood did cause the water in the pool to react strangely. But perhaps the blood of these people was too weak or too little to wake the big guy up.

But the energy reaction triggered by this had led the way for Li Ping'an.

In the deep dark water, Li Ping'an adjusted the searchlight on his head to the weakest state. He was like a dexterous fish, following the energy reaction and slowly descending. He was not hurried at all.

The deeper he dived, the colder he felt.

After diving for fifty meters, the freezing feeling was as strong as that in the small lake under Scarp Swallow.

But with the benefits of mysterious pool water and Li Ping'an's powerful body, nothing could obstacle him.

Soon, Li Ping'an had dived 100 meters deep. And in some places around, he could already see vigorous and dense aquatic plants.

He had almost dived to the bottom of this Gloomy Dragon Pool.

At the same time, Li Ping'an also faintly felt a kind of terrifying energy aura beyond words was calling him in the deep darkness not far away.
