“Impossible! Isn’t she only a half-dragon? How could she possess such pure Dragon Tribe bloodline power?” Sheng Jin was in shock.
Bai Xue, Kun Gu, and Chi Yu were also astonished.
“Ohh, Mother is so powerful,” the male azure dragon remarked.
“That’s our mother!” The female azure dragon was also quite elated.
At this moment, the water in the entire Dragon Dao Pond began to bubble and churn. An ancient dragon might crashed down upon Xu Xiaolan’s body relentlessly, and she gritted her teeth as if she was enduring some type of severe pain.
An Lin knew that this was simply a part of the bloodline enhancement process, but his heart still throbbed upon seeing this.
Xu Xiaolan’s True Dragon bloodline was already extremely pure, and after being enhanced by the Dragon Dao Pond, it became even purer and more powerful.
But at the same time, she was subjected to a lot of pain.
The Dragon Tribe power within the Dragon Dao Pond was simply too invasive. It was no wonder that they only allowed Dao Integration Stage True Dragons to bathe in it. If any dragons below Dao Integration Stage were to bathe in the Dragon Dao Pond, they would be crushed to dust by the terrifying dragon might within a second.
Even though Xu Xiaolan was in a lot of pain, she could still persevere.
One minute passed.
She was still persisting.
Sheng Jin was a little disappointed. How could a half-dragon last this long?
Ten minutes passed.
She was still holding on, and her aura was becoming more and more unfathomably powerful.
Sheng Jin’s eyes widened.
Kun Gu sighed with emotion. “To think that she can last ten minutes in the Dragon Dao Pond as a half-dragon. She has already outstripped the vast majority of our Dao Integration Stage True Dragons!”
“I can sense that she is also reaping a lot of rewards from her time in the pond.” Bai Xue could sense that the dragon might emanating from Xu Xiaolan’s body was becoming more and more pure and powerful. This was not a dragon might that should belong to a half-dragon. Even the lineal descendants of the Azure Dragon didn’t possess such a powerful dragon might!
Before they knew it, half an hour had passed.
Xu Xiaolan was still gritting her teeth and holding on. Her skin had already turned bright red from exertion.
Sheng Jin’s was feeling quite humiliated. Xu Xiaolan was only a half-dragon, but she had already broken his record! How could this be?
He was the caretaker of the Dragon Dao Pond!
However, no matter how much Sheng Jin was unwilling to accept this, it was the reality nonetheless.
Xu Xiaolan was still persevering.
An Lin was cheering her on this entire time, giving her the power of love.
The power of love provided extraordinary buffs.
It reduced pain by fifty percent and increased perseverance by fifty percent.
Xu Xiaolan and An Lin had true love between them, so the aforementioned values had to be doubled.
“Impossible! The water in the Dragon Origin Star is the liquid form of the most essential power of the Azure Dragon Tribe! The pressure it exerts is absolutely phenomenal, how could she last so long in there? Won’t she explode?” Sheng Jin felt like everything had already transcended beyond the realm of his imagination.
No one could answer his question.
All of the other True Dragons were just as astonished.
An Lin only had one thought in my mind: My wife is awesome!
The two little azure dragons also had the same thought in their minds: My mum isn’t half bad.
Time was still ticking, and Xu Xiaolan was quickly becoming more powerful.
Before they knew it, an hour had passed.
Xu Xiaolan was still persevering!
Chi Yu and Bai Xue could no longer remain calm now.
They were guardian deities of the Azure Dragon Tribe!
But their highest record was only an hour!
A Dao Integration Intermediate Stage half-dragon was outstripping them now?!
Was Xu Xiaolan going to defy the natural order?
“The Dragon Dao Pond opens up only once every one hundred years. Could it be that the power within the water has decreased as we opened it up too early?” Chi Yu speculated.
The male azure dragon replied, “It has been ninety-six years since the Dragon Dao Pond was last opened, and the power expended each time is no more than once percent. As such, the power of the Dragon Dao Pond has decreased by less than 0.1% at the moment.”
Chi Yu: “…”
Xu Xiaolan trembled uncontrollably, but she was still holding on with gritted teeth.
An Lin was a little concerned. “Xiaolan, are you alright?”
“Just a little bit… Just a little bit more…” Xu Xiaolan forced the words out through gritted teeth.
“Just a little bit more until what?” An Lin asked.
Xu Xiaolan didn’t reply, but the blood within her body was surging more quickly than ever!
She knew what the source of her pain was.
The boundless Dragon Tribe true intent within the Dragon Dao Pond was not the source of her pain. What was responsible for her pain was the backlash inflicted upon her body from the purification of the Dragon Tribe bloodline within her body, which was taking place at an incredible rate!
If a normal dragon was facing this kind of backlash, they had no choice but to keep persevering and leave the Dragon Dao Pond once they couldn’t persevere any longer. They had no choice as their bloodline was the most important thing to them.
However, Xu Xiaolan was an exception to this as she had a way to repress the backlash from her Dragon Tribe bloodline.
The best way to repress bloodline backlash was to use another bloodline to restrict that bloodline.
This was where the Vermilion Bird bloodline came in useful!
She possessed the Vermilion Bird and True Dragon dual divine daos, thereby giving her a massive advantage over all Dragon Tribe Dao Integration Stage super mighty figures in that she could use her Vermilion Bird bloodline to repress the backlash from her True Dragon bloodline!
The two bloodlines both enhanced and restricted one another, and they finally reached a perfect harmony right when Xu Xiaolan’s pain had reached an extreme.
“Ah! Phew…” Xu Xiaolan let loose a loud cry before heaving a sigh of relief, and her body sagged like a broken guitar string as she collapsed limply into the water.
An Lin was given a fright and immediately rushed over to save her.
However, Xu Xiaolan opened her eyes at this moment, and a vibrant smile appeared on her face as she shook her head. “Don’t worry, I’m fine…”
She closed her eyes again and continued to observe the true intent within the Dragon Dao Pond as she spoke.
“How… how is she suddenly so relaxed?” Chi Yu was concentrating on Xu Xiaolan’s expression this entire time, and his eyes immediately widened.
“Oh my God! She just smiled! How can she be smiling? Is she a masochist?!” Kun Gu almost bit his tongue as he stared at the woman bathing in the Dragon Dao Pond with a shocked expression.
All True Dragons suffered excruciating pain in the Dragon Dao Pond, and even though the bathing in the pond was extremely beneficial to their bloodlines and their observations in the dao realm, it was still an extremely painful experience. However, Xu Xiaolan was smiling.
This was not some forced smile. This was the relaxed and elated smile of someone who had discovered a new continent!
Not only were the Kun Gu and the other True Dragons astonished, but even the two little azure dragons were also in complete shock as they stared at their “mommy”.
As for Sheng Jin, he had already completely sprawled to the ground and was looking up at Xu Xiaolan as if she were a revered goddess.
He no longer hoped to see Xu Xiaolan struggle.
That smile had completely broken him!
