No one had managed to swim out of it yet.

I wonder who the Venerable Lord has punished?

Several Elders secretly shook their heads, wondering who could be so unfortunate.

The Divine Pond Suitor Selection now excluded this trial, replacing it with a bonding journey. When an outsider Cultivator and a Sect Disciple formed a bond, they were required to travel the outside world for a period. If the pair could still return to the Sect smoothly after this time, it meant they were suitable for each other. This was because only by traveling outside, facing hardships and danger, could one discern the other's true character in critical situations.

The Heavenly Demon Divine Pond was too severe. It was now sealed most of the time. Only occasionally would a Disciple willingly accept punishment by cultivating on the surface of the Heavenly Demon Divine Pond, rather than sinking into its depths.

The moment Wang Mu fell into the silvery pond water, he felt as if his body was being torn apart. His soul and flesh could not breathe. All the Spiritual Power and Divine Sense in his body seemed to be under immense oppression.

Death! That was it.

This damned place is truly terrifying...

As the thought crossed his mind, Wang Mu looked at the pitch-black bottom of the pond, instantly feeling he might perish in the next second.

However, at the crucial moment, a drop of Primordial Mystic Heavy Water Essence inside a certain Spiritual Acupoint in his body suddenly became active. It joyously swam out of the Spiritual Acupoint and began to course through Wang Mu's body.

Why is this little guy suddenly so excited...?

Wang Mu was taken aback.

Ever since parting with Miss You, although the little droplet did not reject his body, it had always felt listless, like a traveler far from home, lacking energy.

He knew that to cultivate the Primordial Mystic Sea Control Technique, this little droplet was indispensable. With it feeling so unenergetic, even cultivating the Primordial Mystic Sea Control Technique using action points was as slow as a turtle. So much so that he hadn't even reached the First Layer yet... Who would have thought that falling into this pond water would make it come alive?

Heavenly Demon Divine Pond... Could this pond water have some connection with this little droplet?

Feeling the little droplet swimming inside his body, Wang Mu suddenly felt the pressure on his body lessen somewhat.

Without further thought, Wang Mu immediately began to circulate the Primordial Mystic Sea Control Technique, hoping he could successfully find the Mother Stone of All Things in the Heavenly Demon Divine Pond.

As the spell circulated, the little droplet became even more excited, as though it had encountered an old friend in a foreign land. Wang Mu gradually felt the pressure swiftly decrease. The surrounding pond water, as if it were Spiritual, began to gather around Wang Mu's body. A profound sensation led Wang Mu to various Bright Enlightenments.

An action point was added.

The Primordial Mystic Sea Control Technique began to advance rapidly! This time, the speed of advancement far exceeded Wang Mu's expectations. It felt as though cultivating for a second was equivalent to cultivating for a month.

I never expected this Heavenly Demon Divine Pond to be such a treasured place for cultivating the Primordial Mystic Sea Control Technique!

A thought struck Wang Mu's mind. These two female protagonists rarely interacted. In comparison, there was far more enmity between Mu Hongyuan and Yan Qingwu... I learned Nanrong Biyou's Supreme Method, and now I'm cultivating in this treasured place of Mu Hongyuan's Fengyue Sect. Who would have thought it would create such a synergy?

As the spell circulated, the pond water flowed around Wang Mu and slowly entered his body. With the little droplet swimming within him, the Primordial Mystic Heavy Water Essence gradually grew, transforming from a small droplet into a large one...

Time flew by. After an unknown period, Wang Mu opened his eyes.

The little droplet, as if it had eaten its fill, slowed its Cultivation speed. Its movement inside his body also decelerated. It seemed the Cultivation session was over; it no longer wanted to cultivate.

The pressure from the Heavenly Demon Divine Pond was still strong, but it was no longer suffocating!

It seems I can move now?

So the Heavenly Demon Divine Pond is nothing special after all...

Wang Mu thought, But if I didn't have the Primordial Mystic Sea Control Technique, I probably wouldn't have lasted long after falling into this Heavenly Demon Divine Pond. I would have been doomed!

Then, Wang Mu began to sink toward the bottom of the pond. The deeper he went, the greater the pressure Wang Mu felt.

Right, I'll also circulate the Mountain and Sea Body Refining Technique...

With a turn of his thoughts, Wang Mu employed Spirit and God Dual Use, simultaneously circulating two Cultivation Techniques. The Mountain and Sea Spirit Pattern on his back shimmered, and the tremendous pressure further dispersed. As he continued to sink, it no longer imposed much of a burden on him.

After sinking for a short while, Wang Mu saw a glimmer of light. The depths of the pond were profound and terrifying, like a Sea Abyss, yet the glimmer of light seemed capable of illuminating one's mind, bringing a sense of clarity.

The Mother Stone of All Things... This must be some type of underwater Divine Ore.

His heart stirred, and Wang Mu immediately swam over to examine the object. A Divine Stone was embedded in the pond's bottom, only a trace of its brilliance visible, yet it radiated a vibrant life force, as if capable of nurturing all things. It was hard to imagine that in the deathly stillness of the Heavenly Demon Divine Pond, akin to an abyss, there could exist such a Divine Ore, brimming with such vitality!

I haven't gone Mining in a long time...

Looking at the Mother Stone, a thought struck Wang Mu. He took out his Pickaxe and, without hesitation, swung it down with great force.

BANG.

The Pickaxe shattered instantly.

Truly worthy of being a Divine Ore.

Another thought struck Wang Mu. He immediately circulated the Xuan Yao Sea Control Technique, causing the little droplet to gather in the palm of his hand and form the shape of a Pickaxe. Water is formless and can morph into anything. This Water Pickaxe, formed from the Primordial Mystic Heavy Water Essence, seemed to concentrate the immense power of the pond water. It might not be particularly formidable in the outside world, but here, it seemed to possess immeasurable Divine Power.

With a gentle strike downward, a dull sound echoed, and the Mother Stone shifted slightly.

Success!

Wang Mu's heart leaped with joy. He began to dig vigorously, striking with the Pickaxe again and again.
