Wang Ruoxie felt extremely awkward at this moment. He thought this area should be vacant, with no one cultivating here, but unexpectedly, someone had submerged their entire body underwater.

If it were a man, it wouldn't be a big deal, but it was a beautiful woman. Even though he was inadvertent, it still seemed quite rude.

"Ah... you lecherous scoundrel, how dare you..."

The woman raised her head and finally noticed Wang Ruoxie, who was only in his underwear. Her beautiful eyes widened as she let out a scream.

Although she was wearing underwear, being stared at by a man made her feel extremely ashamed and angry.

"Senior Sister, I'm truly sorry, I indeed didn't see you here just now."

Wang Ruoxie coughed lightly, then awkwardly spoke to the woman.

"Laughable, who doesn't know that the Dragon Transformation Pool is divided into male and female areas, with the male area to the east and south, while this is the northern female area."

The woman submerged herself in the water, only exposing her head, and said coldly to Wang Ruoxie.

"It's my first time at the Dragon Transformation Pool, I really didn't know of such a division, if there was any offense, I ask for Senior Sister's forgiveness."

Wang Ruoxie smiled bitterly and spoke again.

Ye Xiuyuan either forgot or deliberately didn't tell him about the division between male and female areas.

However, he then noticed that although the woman was only in her twenties, her cultivation had reached the Eighth Layer of Element Transformation Realm.

"With your Seventh Layer of Element Transformation Realm, even if you haven't become a True Inheritance, you must be a core disciple who has entered the sect for several years, how could it possibly be your first time here at the Dragon Transformation Pool."

The woman coldly stared at Wang Ruoxie, saying, "Luckily, I'm not completely naked, otherwise you would have seen everything."

"What does Senior Sister intend to do?"

Wang Ruoxie was initially at fault, so even though the other party was aggressive, he could only retreat, hoping to resolve the matter peacefully.

"Forget it, you can leave. I, Xueyao, am not a tyrannical person, since you call me Senior Sister, let's pretend this never happened, just hope you won't be so reckless next time."

Xueyao pondered for a moment, then said to Wang Ruoxie, "However, I must remind you, with your talent at such a young age, your potential is extraordinary, don't let depraved thoughts ruin your bright future like those lecherous people."

Listening to Xueyao's words, Wang Ruoxie silently chuckled, being misunderstood as a lecherous person.

However, he didn't expect that the woman with unparalleled beauty in front of him was one of the four great beauties of the Celestial Sword Sect, Xueyao.

He had already met three of the Celestial Sword Sect's four great beauties: Xiao Ningyue, Tang Miaoyin, Ouyang Qian, and had a close relationship with Xiao Ningyue and Tang Miaoyin, and saved Ouyang Qian in the Pill and Artifact Hall.

Now, he met the last beauty, Xueyao, albeit under these peculiar circumstances.

"Senior Sister Xueyao's teaching is correct, I will take my leave now."

Wang Ruoxie did not argue further. After saying a word to Xueyao with a cupped hand gesture, he picked up his clothes and turned to leave.

Upon entering the male area, Wang Ruoxie found a vacant spot and submerged his entire body in the water.

Immediately, he felt an incomparably rich Spiritual Qi continuously pouring into his body.

Without delay, Wang Ruoxie activated the technique of the Nine Transformation Primordial Scripture and began cultivating with full force.

He could clearly feel the True Qi in his body rapidly condensing, and even the speed of transforming into Primordial Power accelerated by more than tenfold.

Moreover, he could sense that the water in the Dragon Transformation Pool was not purely made of Spiritual Qi; it also contained strands of Earth Vein Qi.

The Earth Vein, the vein of the earth, can turn into Dragon Vein under special circumstances, eventually transforming into a True Dragon, soaring into the sky, likely giving the Dragon Transformation Pool its name.

For a martial cultivator, Earth Vein Qi is a rare cultivation resource, even more important than Spiritual Qi.

Because Earth Vein Qi not only tempers the body but also nourishes Qi and Blood, yet, ordinary people cannot endure the pain that comes with tempering the body and nourishing Qi and Blood.

"No wonder Elder Ye Xiuyuan said I can stay as long as I can withstand it."

Wang Ruoxie whispered in his heart. While cultivating, he had to resist the increasing pain, and few could endure for long.

Of course, the longer one endures, the greater the benefits, potentially rebirthing both body and soul.

Earth Vein Qi contains both Yin and Yang Sha Qi; Yang Sha Qi tempers the body, Yin Sha Qi nourishes Qi and Blood.

As time passed, Wang Ruoxie felt his body enveloped in flames, while sizzling hot streams spread throughout his body.

Yet not long after, he experienced an intense cold sensation.

At this moment, he was caught between ice and fire, and if not for his robust body and extraordinary Qi and Blood, he might have only lasted an hour.

When the True Qi in his Sea of Qi reached its limit, Wang Ruoxie took out a hundred drops of Half-Step Innate level Demon Beast Essence Blood, then began to devour the Essence Blood while fully operating the Nine Transformation Primordial Scripture.

Approximately two hours later, with a muffled sound, Wang Ruoxie's aura seemed to break through a shackle, surging several times over.

The Eighth Layer of Element Transformation Realm finally broke through.

Wang Ruoxie did not stop, continuing to devour Demon Beast Essence Blood while leveraging the effects of the Dragon Transformation Pool to advance his realm.

A day quickly passed.

At this point, Wang Ruoxie had devoured all hundred drops of Half-Step Innate level Demon Beast Essence Blood, elevating his cultivation to the peak of the Eighth Layer of Element Transformation Realm, one step away from the Ninth Layer.

Moreover, his body and Qi and Blood had greatly strengthened.

Sadly, he couldn't advance his cultivation in one go to the Ninth Layer of Element Transformation Realm.

The Dragon Transformation Pool's effects on him were no longer as apparent, so he ceased his attempt to advance.

"With my current strength, if I face Tang Liren again, I could defeat him with just one move."

Feeling his power increase by at least tenfold, Wang Ruoxie's mouth curled into a faint smile.

Even with only his physical strength, he could contend against a typical Late Stage Element Transformation Realm.

It could be said that now, beneath the Innate Realm, nearly no one could threaten him.

Although the Earth Vein Qi in the Dragon Transformation Pool was no longer significantly effective, the incredibly rich Spiritual Qi still made his cultivation much easier.

Therefore, Wang Ruoxie did not leave the Dragon Transformation Pool but continued cultivating, stabilizing his recently advanced cultivation to enter the Ancient Ruins in the best state.

One month later, Wang Ruoxie put on his clothing and walked out of the Dragon Transformation Pool.

"You actually stayed inside for a month."

Ye Xiuyuan looked at Wang Ruoxie with an incredulous expression, speaking with astonishment.
