May I seek good fortune and avoid misfortune, and live a long and prosperous life.

Poison Dragon Pool, as the name suggests, is named after a legend that a poisonous dragon fell from the sky and landed here long ago.

In Li Heng's view, this was probably just a mythical legend.

However, the poisonous dragon may be fake, but the water in this pool is indeed poisonous, and not just any kind of poison. Although it cannot be called extremely poisonous, even a Grandmaster of the Innate Realm would not be able to withstand staying there for too long.

Li Heng went to the Poison Dragon Pool not because he was really suicidal, but because over the years he had discovered that his immortal body was immune to ordinary poisons.

As for top-level poisons like arsenic, mercury, and arsenic, Li Heng dared not try them. What if he really died?

With the enemy hot on their heels, Li Heng had no time to think things through and made a decisive decision.

Let's go to the Poison Dragon Pool!

Although Li Heng wasn't very familiar with the road to Poison Dragon Pool, he did have some impression of it. After all, he had been there a few times before to test his own tolerance to poison.

Soon after, the Six Doors experts chasing after Li Heng frowned.

They sensed something was wrong.

This road gave them a sense of danger.

Which way does this road lead?

"Holy crap, this looks like the path to the Poison Dragon Pool!" Suddenly, a Six Doors expert seemed to remember something and shouted.

"Poison Dragon Pool? What kind of place is this?" asked a Six Doors expert who was unaware of the origins of Poison Dragon Pool.

"Poison Dragon Pool, this place is very eerie. Legend has it that it was formed by a poisonous dragon falling into the water. The water in the pool is poisonous, not extremely poisonous, but still very toxic."

It's said that even Grandmasters of the Innate Realm can't last long, let alone us martial artists who haven't even reached the Innate Realm. Is this jailer named Li Heng trying to commit suicide?

The expert in front explained.

"I see. But since that kid wants to die, let's go and see if he has the guts to jump into the pool!"

"That's exactly what I was thinking. Let's continue our pursuit!"

……

Half an hour later, at the edge of the Poison Dragon Pool.

Li Heng had been forced to this place by a large number of experts from the Six Doors.

At this moment, the experts from the Six Doors were still making their final attempts to persuade him to surrender:

"Boy, the water in the Poison Dragon Pool is poisonous. Even experts like us couldn't escape it, so there's no way you, a ninth-rank martial artist, could survive. If you surrender now, you might still have a chance to live. You're so young, don't do anything foolish!"

"A scholar can be killed but not humiliated. I would rather jump than be forced by you!"

After saying this, Li Heng didn't give them a chance to speak and resolutely jumped into the pool.

The pitch-black pool instantly swallowed Li Heng, leaving only ripples spreading outwards.

By the pool, many experts from the Six Doors frowned deeply. They had messed things up and might be punished by their superiors.

"What do we do now? This kid jumped into the pool, he's doomed. How are we going to explain this to our superiors?"

"Just report the truth. Also, send a few people to guard the pool for a day and a night. How could this kid be dead by then? Xiao Zhang, Xiao Zhou, Xiao Wu, you stay here and guard the pool. The rest of you come back with me!" said the middle-aged man from the Six Doors who was in charge.

The Six Doors constables whose names were called frowned slightly, but they couldn't disobey the middle-aged man's orders, after all, they were the least senior.

……

On the other side, Li Heng, who had jumped into the pool, was swimming towards the center of the pool.

At this moment, he finally became certain that his immortal body was immune to the poisonous water. The surrounding pool water seeped into his skin, and apart from the coldness, he felt nothing, as if it were just ordinary pool water.

"At this time, the other party must still be waiting by the pool. We must not go out. We must stay in the pool for a few days before we can make a decision!" Li Heng thought to himself.

After swimming for about the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, Li Heng suddenly noticed a bright light upstream ahead, which stood out conspicuously in the pitch-black pool.

So Li Heng swam even faster, trying to get closer to that place.

After about the time it takes for another incense stick to burn, Li Heng finally arrived at the bright spot, which turned out to be the entrance to a cave.

Li Heng excitedly climbed up to the cave entrance, where light shone in, making it very bright.

The cave was neither too big nor too small, large enough for one person to live in.

Perhaps due to the sunlight, the cave was not very damp, but there was a lot of dark green moss covering the rock walls, which had an irregular shape. Clearly, this was a natural cave.

"This place can serve as my future training ground, and also as a crucial refuge from danger. No one else must ever know about this place!"

……

A day and a night later, by the pool, three constables from the Six Doors rubbed their aching backs.

"Finally we can go back. Those damned jailers made us three brothers stay here to be guarded. When we get back, we need to take a good bath to wash away all the bad luck!" said one of the Six Doors constables.

"Brother Zhang is right, we need to wash away the bad luck when we get back. I'll treat you all to a meal at Fu Rui Lou later! Their braised lion's head meatballs are absolutely amazing!"

"Brother, you're a true friend! Let's go, let's get out of this cursed place, Poison Dragon Pool!"

Inside the Poison Dragon Pool cave, Li Heng stayed for five consecutive days. Due to his immortal body, he was able to abstain from grains for half a month while only drinking water.

However, Li Heng didn't need to stay here for too long. As a modern person, he didn't really like being alone.

He likes places with a lively, bustling atmosphere.

After leaving the Poison Dragon Pool, Li Heng first disguised his appearance. This rudimentary skill of makeup and disguise was something he had learned in his spare time over the past few years.

After finishing his makeup and making sure that no one he knew would recognize him, he prepared to go into Maple City to gather information.

A day later, Li Heng quietly took a seat in a corner of Songfeng Teahouse, the largest teahouse in Fengcheng.

He quietly gathered information that would be useful to him.

The teahouse was bustling with activity, with most of the seats occupied by tea drinkers, and chatter filling the air.

"Have you heard? A few days ago, a prison guard actually broke out of prison. The Six Doors were furious and sent their elite troops to capture him. I heard that the guard was a spy for the Red Lotus Sect."

"How terrifying! Even a highly important place like Maple City Prison has been infiltrated by members of the Red Lotus Cult. The world is probably in deep trouble."

"Tomorrow, the group of Red Lotus Cult members we captured earlier will be publicly executed. Good riddance! I've heard that those Red Lotus Cult members specialize in sucking people's life essence and are extremely cruel. On the day of the execution, some Red Lotus Cult members might take the opportunity to cause trouble. It's best if we don't go and join the fun."

An hour later, Li Heng quietly left.

The next day, at noon, a group of Red Lotus Sect members were tied up in the execution ground, awaiting the executioner's orders. Among them was the white-haired Wang Qingshu, who was in a state of extreme madness.

Meanwhile, in secret, numerous experts from the Six Doors had already spread out around the execution ground, waiting for the Red Lotus Sect demons to storm the execution ground at any time.

Unfortunately, the person never showed up.

At this moment, Li Heng also mingled in the crowd, observing the surrounding situation. If anything seemed amiss, he would immediately retreat behind the crowd.

"The time has come, execute!"

The heads of Wang Qingshu and other members of the Red Lotus Cult fell to the ground instantly, their pungent blood splattering all over the executioner.

Li Heng breathed a sigh of relief; the matter was finally over.

Next, he will go into seclusion to focus on cultivating the Red Lotus Sect's method for quick success.
