Urban Cultivation with a Demonic System-Chapter 383 - 318: Bathing Together in the Dragon Saliva Pool?
"I remember back in the Ancient Era, someone developed a weakness while soaking in the Dragon Saliva Pool, as a leaf cast a shadow on their back, and they met their end when an enemy pierced that weak spot with a sword."
"Moreover, once someone enters the Dragon Saliva Pool, the power sealed within it will rapidly dissipate."
"After the person in the pool finishes their soak, regardless of how much Dragon Power they absorb, the surplus power will vanish."
"Therefore, the Dragon Saliva Pool cannot be exclusively used, and both of you must bathe in it together to achieve the best effect."
"Of course, this is just my suggestion. How you use the Dragon Saliva Pool is up to you."
Shared... shared bath?
After hearing Long Bai’s words, the term immediately popped into Chen Nuoyi’s mind.
Even though the Dragon Saliva Pool was quite large, with a diameter of about fifteen meters, and veiled in Spiritual Mist... it didn’t change the fact of the shared bath.
At that thought, the girl’s face flushed visibly red, lacking even the courage to glance at Su Yuan.
The atmosphere turned pink at once.
However, the next second, a question from Su Yuan made that atmosphere instantly disappear without a trace.
"Um... if I remember correctly, isn’t Dragon Saliva the saliva of dragons?"
"So, all the water in this pool is your..."
As soon as these words came out, it was the turn of the aloof ice-haired Lolita to blush.
Clenching her small fists, she said in embarrassment and anger:
"You! Why are you always focusing on such details?"
"Dragon Saliva is definitely not my saliva!"
"That is clearly the Spirit Liquid produced after our Dragon Race refines various Heavenly and Earthly Treasures through the Dragon Pearl, merely spewed out through the mouth! Saying it’s saliva is purely a human misunderstanding!"
Su Yuan was silent for a moment, then slowly said:
"Spewed out from the mouth... isn’t that still saliva?"
"Su Yuan!!!"
The ice-haired Lolita was so angry that even her earlobes turned red.
With her youthful ten-year-old appearance and adorable demeanor, her anger seemed more like a fit of petulance.
Su Yuan quickly waved his hand:
"Alright, alright, let’s not talk about it. Let’s go bathe now, Long Bai, make sure you don’t peek."
"I am a noble dragon! How could I possibly peek at a mere male taking a bath?"
The ice-haired Lolita grunted angrily and turned her back.
"Alright, the nuisance is gone, let’s start soaking in the hot spring."
Seeing the ice-haired Lolita’s figure recede into the distance, Su Yuan’s lips curled into a smile, and his tone carried a hint of ulterior motives.
He seemed to be brewing some wicked plan.
Seeing this, Chen Nuoyi, while unsure of what mischievous plot Su Yuan was hatching, reckoned it wasn’t directed at her, causing her to frown slightly.
But ultimately, she said nothing, accompanying Su Yuan to opposite sides of the Dragon Saliva Pool.
With a fifteen-meter distance between them, and the dense Spiritual Mist obscuring their view, neither could see the other.
However, even knowing this, Chen Nuoyi still felt somewhat self-conscious, fumbling while changing her clothes.
Once she had shed her garments, the girl’s delicate body was hidden within the steaming Spiritual Mist, cautiously asking Su Yuan:
"Su Yuan, can I go in now?"
"No problem, I’m ready."
Chen Nuoyi softly acknowledged, stepping her exquisite and tender feet into the Dragon Saliva Pool.
Feeling the Dragon Power within the pool swiftly surging into her body, her black eyes suddenly brimmed with a golden sheen.
Not daring to hesitate, she moved quickly, submerging herself entirely in the pool.
At this moment, the Dragon King Bloodline within her seemed to be activated, greedily absorbing the power within the Dragon Saliva Pool, much like a ravenous beast starved for three months.
Fortunately, the Dragon Power contained within the Dragon Saliva Pool was abundant, crafted personally by a Dragon Race Princess, ensuring it fully satisfied the needs of both Chen Nuoyi and Su Yuan.
Meanwhile, on the other side of the Dragon Saliva Pool, Su Yuan activated the Senluo Spirit Root, absorbing the pool’s power just as rapidly as Chen Nuoyi.
The two were like whirlpools, swiftly extracting every bit of power from their surroundings.
In absorbing the Dragon Power, Su Yuan could distinctly feel his physical body and cultivation level surging upward.
Regarding cultivation, at this pace, it wouldn’t take more than half a month for him to break through from the Foundation Establishment Third Layer to the Fourth Layer.
Such speed is incomparable to merely absorbing the pure Spiritual Power from the Great Desire Immortal Puppet.
The Dragon Saliva Pool, being one of the Heavenly and Earthly Treasures, could further enhance Su Yuan’s Cultivation efficiency based on the Divine Spirit Root.
However, evidently, the cultivation level improvement was merely a side effect of the Dragon Saliva Pool.
The real highlight was the enhancement of physical strength.
Su Yuan’s skin, muscles, bones, and even his internal organs were all strengthening at an exaggerated speed.
The transformation was so dramatic, it was as if a regular person had turned into a humanoid tyrannosaurus.
Particularly the skin that came into direct contact with the Dragon Saliva Pool water not only became impervious to weapons but also more resilient, radiant, and delicate than before.
Gradually, Su Yuan was completely immersed in cultivation.
Ten days later.
His cultivation naturally reached a breakthrough, officially stepping into the Foundation Establishment Middle Stage.
His strength and physical strength underwent a near-rebirth transformation.
"Ten days have passed, the power of the Dragon Saliva Pool should be depleted now."
Su Yuan ended his cultivation state and slowly opened his eyes.
The next moment, a crystal clear Dragon Saliva Pool, which looked like ordinary pool water, appeared in front of him.
The water cleared, and the mist dispersed.
Su Yuan instinctively looked directly opposite, and a familiar enchanting figure was still cultivating with eyes closed.
But nothing scandalous happened, as Chen Nuoyi’s vital parts were already covered by a layer of purple-gold dragon scales, like wearing a purple-gold swimsuit.
Su Yuan clicked his tongue secretly.
And at this moment, seemingly noticing Su Yuan’s gaze, Chen Nuoyi suddenly opened her eyes.
A pair of brilliant golden dragon eyes met Su Yuan’s.
At first, Miss Chen’s dragon eyes carried the majesty of an emperor, but after just a second, when she realized her surroundings, the young girl’s face instantly flushed red.
"Su Yuan! You..."
"Nuoyi, you really disappoint me. We agreed to cultivate together in the Dragon Saliva Pool, and you actually peeped at me!"
Su Yuan immediately took the initiative, accusing her, then promptly summoned a jacket to wrap himself up tightly.
"I... I didn’t, I didn’t expect the Dragon Saliva Pool to become clear..."
Chen Nuoyi was momentarily a bit embarrassed.
Su Yuan shook his head, saying painfully:
"Don’t do such inappropriate things in the future!"
"You’re lucky it’s me you encountered; if it were someone else, you’d have been refined into a Research Protection Pill."
Chen Nuoyi: "Re... Research Protection Pill?"
Su Yuan didn’t explain further; the matter of the Research Protection Pill was too complicated, better not to tell the innocent Miss Chen.
With resolute determination, he slowly stepped forward, and in Chen Nuoyi’s shy gaze, walked to stand in front of the young girl.
"Su Yuan... What are you planning to do now?"
Looking at Su Yuan’s well-defined physique beneath the dampened jacket, and recalling the fleeting sight from before, Chen Nuoyi unnaturally averted her gaze.
Although her body was covered with dragon scales, leaving only some necessary parts exposed, was Su Yuan going to behave like a beast...
But while the young girl’s thoughts ran wild, Su Yuan’s voice gently reached her ears.
"Nuoyi, I need to go out for a moment, can you cover for me?"
Chen Nuoyi: "???"
She quickly dispelled those inexplicable thoughts and asked softly:
"Where to? For how long?"
Su Yuan glanced at the route map on the system panel; it wasn’t far from Long Bai’s bedroom.
This was a scheme he had been brewing ever since arriving at the Dragon Saliva Pool.
Upon discovering that the Dragon Saliva Pool perfectly covered a significant route to Long Bai’s bedroom, Su Yuan had resolved to take advantage of the opportunity when Long Bai wouldn’t dare peek at him bathing, to sneak away and visit her bedroom.
Now that the benefits of the Dragon Saliva Pool were consumed, it was time to claim the system reward.
"About an hour, just stall for me for an hour."
After saying this, and after Chen Nuoyi nodded somewhat bewilderedly, Su Yuan immediately climbed out of the pool and sneakily headed toward the cave exit.
In the blink of an eye, he was gone.
The young girl worriedly watched Su Yuan’s departing silhouette.
Although she hadn’t asked what exactly Su Yuan was planning to do, she had a vague premonition in her heart.
If Su Yuan’s actions were discovered by Long Bai, he might get his legs broken.
But whatever one fears will come.
Just a few minutes after Su Yuan left, an impatient voice came from outside the cave:
"It’s been ten days, are you done soaking yet?"
Who else could it be but Long Bai?
