Without the slightest hesitation, Lin Dong took a step and walked straight into the spreading golden light.

Buzz!

As Lin Dong stepped into the golden light, the scales on his body emitted a faint buzzing sound, and a blue light bloomed, resisting the erosion of that violent energy.

When his body was completely engulfed by golden light, Lin Dong sat down cross-legged, his expression very calm. He formed hand seals, and waves of suction force spread out from his body.

boom!

The moment this suction force spread out, the originally calm golden light cluster suddenly seemed to boil over. Golden bubbles burst around Lin Dong, and beams of golden light shot into Lin Dong's body with an extremely ruthless force.

Then, the moment it entered his body, it burst into countless golden water mists, which frantically seeped into Lin Dong's body.

hiss!

Just as these golden mists touched Lin Dong's internal organs, his face instantly became burning hot, and a gasp, trembling slightly, escaped from between his teeth.

The water vapor, like boiling fire droplets, caused even the meridians, flesh, and bones to turn faintly red, as if they were being roasted.

Lin Dong grinned. Having been mentally prepared, he activated the Azure Dragon Transformation Technique at an extremely opportune moment.

Suddenly, a magical dragon's roar resounded within his body, spreading to every part of his body.

Where the dragon's roar reverberated, a faint blue light appeared on the meridians and flesh. Under the cover of that blue light, an unusually ancient aura seemed to emerge from Lin Dong's body, an aura like that of an ancient dragon.

The Azure Dragon Transformation Technique is a powerful martial art that can cultivate a human body to the level of a true dragon. In addition, Qingzhi left a Heavenly Dragon Qi in Lin Dong's body, which is only possessed by high-level dragons, which caused Lin Dong's body to undergo a transformation from the inside out during the cultivation of the Azure Dragon Transformation Technique.

As we all know, no matter how strong a person's physical body is, its internal organs remain the most vulnerable. If an opponent's force penetrates the body, the resulting injuries will be fatal. However, the Azure Dragon Transformation Technique strengthens not only the external body but also the internal flesh and blood, gradually being enhanced during cultivation.

This is precisely the extraordinary aspect of the Azure Dragon Transformation Technique. Lin Dong has no doubt that if he cultivates this martial art to its peak, his physical body will be comparable to that of a true dragon!

With such a powerful physique, it didn't seem as difficult for Lin Dong to absorb the violent Nirvana Golden Qi as ordinary people might imagine.

Chi Chi!

When the golden mist once again lashed against the flesh and blood within Lin Dong's body, which were enveloped in azure light, the intense pain it caused lessened considerably in an instant. The mist gradually merged with his flesh and blood, and in that instant, Lin Dong could clearly feel a violent power growing within his flesh and bones like an angry dragon.

As the Nirvana Golden Qi tempered Lin Dong's flesh and blood, a considerable amount of Nirvana Golden Qi was gradually absorbed by the Yuan Power. Instantly, the powerful Yuan Power flowing through his meridians also quietly became more and more powerful.

Noticing this situation within his body, Lin Dong's face slowly curved into a smile. This Nirvana Golden Qi was indeed a great tonic for Nirvana experts. It could not only strengthen the body, but also make the Yuan Power more abundant. This rate of increase was many times faster than ordinary cultivation.

"What a great spot! We can't waste this Nirvana Golden Energy."

Lin Dong slightly opened his eyes, gazing at the golden halo that enveloped the area within dozens of feet of the depths of the Dan River. Within the halo, there was a dense aura of Nirvana gold, and Lin Dong's gaze toward it was exceptionally greedy.

The existence of the Azure Dragon Transformation Technique allowed Lin Dong to not only ignore the immense pressure, but also easily endure the Nirvana Golden Qi that would otherwise torment other Nirvana Realm experts to the point of death. Although there would still be some pain during this time, it was clearly not unbearable for Lin Dong.

"However, the pressure here is getting stronger and stronger." Lin Dong glanced at the dragon scales on his body. The shimmering blue light was gradually dimming. The pressure here was actually increasing.

However, Lin Dong has already tasted the benefits of these Nirvana Golden Qi, so he will not give up easily. As for the gradually increasing pressure, he wants to try and see if his current physical body can fully withstand it.

"Devour it!"

Lin changed his hand seals, and a circle of black holes spread out directly in his palm. In the next instant, the power of devouring suddenly spread out.

Whoosh!

With the emergence of the devouring power, the already boiling golden aura fluctuated even more violently, and streams of golden water poured into the black hole in Lin Dong's palm at an astonishing speed.

As such a powerful infusion of Nirvana Golden Qi poured in, a faint golden light gradually enveloped Lin Dong's face, making him appear dignified and majestic from afar.

His aura, too, began to slowly rise under this absorption!

At the bottom of the dark Dan River, a golden light swirled around, appearing exceptionally dazzling. However, in this riverbed filled with terrifying pressure, only golden bubbles occasionally burst open within the golden light, emitting a faint, crisp sound.

Within that vast expanse of dense golden light, dozens of feet in size, one could vaguely discern a figure sitting cross-legged. Around this figure, viscous Nirvana Golden Qi flowed continuously into the body of the figure like streams of water, with a soft, gurgling sound.

As the gaze pierced the ball of light, the figure gradually became clear. It was covered in blue scales that reflected a faint blue light, but a faint crimson color could be seen between the gaps in the scales, and a hint of bloody smell emanated from it.

Lin Dong has been at the bottom of the Dan River for three days.

Over these three days, the pressure around him grew stronger and stronger. It was as if the pressure of the entire Dan River was gradually converging on him. The ever-increasing pressure was enough to instill fear in a person.

Faced with this increasingly terrifying pressure, even though Lin Dong had scales protecting his body, blood still seeped from his pores due to the immense pressure. Although it wasn't causing any serious harm at the moment, if it continued, the ever-increasing pressure would inevitably reach a terrifying level.

At this moment, Lin Dong truly realized the immense price he would have to pay to safely absorb the Nirvana Golden Qi at the bottom of the Dan River.

The increasingly terrifying pressure was something he dared not underestimate, even after cultivating the Azure Dragon Transformation Technique.

Despite the terrifying pressure, Lin Dong's gains over the three days were considerable. As the Nirvana Golden Qi seeped into his body, he could clearly feel his physical body gradually being strengthened. This strengthening came from the inside out, and even within his flesh and blood, it seemed as if power was being generated.

As his physical body strengthened, the Yuan energy flowing through Lin Dong's meridians became increasingly powerful, rushing past like a surging river, spreading waves of exceptionally strong power throughout Lin Dong's limbs and bones.

Lin Dong could feel that the increase in his Yuan Power in just three days was equivalent to ten times that of normal cultivation!

This is a rather terrifying number, but it's not entirely unbelievable. Nirvana Golden Qi is formed from extremely pure Nirvana Qi. Even a tiny wisp of it contains enough Nirvana Qi to equal the results of an ordinary person's one day of cultivation.

Of course, while his physical body and Yuan Power were both getting stronger, what surprised Lin Dong the most was the occurrence of something else.

Within Lin Dong's dantian, there were many things. At the very center was a fist-sized, dark golden Yuan Dan, which slowly rotated, constantly absorbing and releasing abundant Yuan energy.

Above the Yuan Dan was a large mass of azure energy, from which the roar of dragons constantly emanated, the energy surging and faintly coalescing into the shape of a soaring dragon.

This wisp of azure energy was naturally the Heavenly Dragon Qi left behind by the Azure Pheasant. This thing was too violent, and Lin Dong had no way to completely absorb it. He could only gradually control it with the Azure Dragon Transformation Technique, and naturally let this Heavenly Dragon Qi merge into his body.

Below the Yuan Dan was a flowing golden light, within which was an extremely mysterious fluctuation. This was the Yuan Shen Qi obtained after devouring the Yuan Shen within Lin Langtian's body. In a sense, it was the same type of energy as the Nirvana Golden Qi that Lin Dong was currently absorbing.

Lin Dong clearly didn't understand the function of this primordial spirit energy, which was completely beyond his current level of control. Therefore, he kept it in his dantian, preparing to control it after his strength improved in the future.

Lin Dong's plan was as described, but during these three days of absorbing Nirvana Golden Qi, he discovered that whenever he absorbed some Nirvana Golden Qi, some golden rays of light would rush into his dantian, eventually merging with the primordial spirit energy, causing the latter to gradually grow stronger.

This unexpected turn of events startled Lin Dong. After all, this primordial spirit energy belonged to that primordial spirit. Although Lin Dong was confident that he had completely erased the consciousness within it, this change still made him somewhat uneasy.

I'm currently reading the error-free version! This is the first time I've published this novel.

Fortunately, the growth of this primordial spirit energy did not result in anything getting out of control; it was just that the golden light became increasingly dense, and the originally somewhat illusory golden light became much more solid.

From this mass of primordial spirit energy, Lin Dong could sense an exceptionally powerful fluctuation. This fluctuation was somewhat different from Yuan Power, but he could still perceive that this primordial spirit energy seemed to possess an extremely astonishing destructive power.

"I'd like to see what exactly you're trying to do."

Lin Dong focused his mind on the primordial spirit energy, muttering to himself. With the mysterious stone talisman and the Devouring Ancestral Talisman guarding his body, and even the Qiankun Ancient Array outside his dantian, he didn't believe that this thing could cause any trouble within his body.

Time flowed silently beneath the Dan River, and in the blink of an eye, five days had passed.

For five days, the bottom of the Dan River remained silent, but the area outside the Dan River became extremely lively as a result.

On the Danhe Platform, a large number of disciples from the Desolate Palace were gathered together. There were also many people standing on some platforms on the surrounding Danhe River. Although most of them were cultivating, their gazes were all looking in the same direction, which was the whirlpool that had been designated as an isolation zone.

Their eyes were filled with astonishment, because Lin Dong had been at the bottom of the Dan River for five days, and there was no sign of him breaking out of the river.

The disciples of the Desolate Palace were well aware of what this time represented. Fang Yun, one of the four direct disciples of the Desolate Palace, could only endure four days of the Danhe Initiation last year before he broke out of the river, covered in blood and in a sorry state.

But now, Lin Dong has lasted longer than that number. Doesn't that mean that Lin Dong's abilities are even stronger than Fang Yun's?

If that's the case, it seems their Desolate Palace is about to produce another formidable figure this year, and this formidable figure has only just joined the Desolate Palace.

Above the Dan River, Chen Zhen and Wu Dao remained motionless, but their eyes were fixed on the vortex below, their expressions slightly solemn.

"That kid really knows how to hold on," Wu Dao stroked his beard, his voice filled with undisguised joy and satisfaction.

"Persisting for five days already puts them in the middle to upper ranks among the disciples receiving the Danhe Initiation in the Four Great Halls."

Chen Zhen smiled as well. Of course, the most important thing was that after persisting for five days, Lin Dong still showed no signs of breaking out of the river, which meant that he could still continue to persevere.

With his extraordinary abilities, Chen Zhen was able to faintly sense a hidden aura at the end of the vortex passage.

"The Dan River is peculiar; the pressure below will become more and more terrifying each day. The next few days will be the truly unbearable time," Wu Dao said softly.

"Then let's wait a little longer. If this little guy can just hold on for three more days, he'll be able to catch up with Xiaoxiao's grades," Chen Zhen said with a smile.

Wu Dao nodded slightly. Three days might seem short, but for Lin Dong, who was at the bottom of the Dan River, it would likely come at a great cost. Whether he could go or not depended on his own abilities.

As the many disciples of the Desolate Hall eagerly awaited their arrival, time passed day by day. As time went by, the atmosphere in the Desolate Hall suddenly rose. Some of the personal disciples who usually secluded themselves for arduous cultivation were also disturbed and eventually broke out of their seclusion to come to the vicinity of the Dan River.

When Lin Dong entered the bottom of the Dan River on the seventh day, the news spread far and wide, and some disciples from the other three halls also heard about it. The Desolate Hall immediately became lively, and disciples from the other three halls also came over from time to time.

After all, even within their three halls, only a handful of senior disciples could endure seven days at the bottom of the Dan River during the Dan River Initiation ceremony…
