Alex didn"t know what to expect, based on what they"ve been told before he got into the pool, there was a possibility of I being too hot, however there was no turning back now. As he was slowly lowered into the pool, Alex felt his heart pounding, I would be too far fetched to say he was afraid, but it would be just right to say the young man was nervous.The moment his folded legs touched the blood, he felt a deep chill pervade is entire body. According to legends and very obvious eye witness accounts, dragons are either lizard like, or snake like. Which is to say they"re basically giant reptiles, and most if not all reptiles were cold blooded. Which is all why most of them had the ability to sense heat, but there was nothing hot about this blood pool, I was freezing.
At first due to it"s bubbling, boiling nature, Alex had taught that it was extremely hot, turns out he was quite wrong and the feeling was at the opposite end of a thermometer. The chill that entered his body shot like a lance to the top of his head and then back all the way to his feet, before spreading across is entire body.

Then almost as if the "cold" was alive, it began to move around his entire body, getting colder and colder and causing havoc. And with each second that pa.s.sed, the cold got a lot more intense than he expected. But more than that, Alex had seemed to not realize that he was still slowly descending into the pool, It wasn"t until he felt the chill reach his lower chest that he regained his awareness and started to ascend until only his waist below as submerged in the thick and viscous pool of blood.
But that tiny second of reprieve that he used to find a balance with his body was lost as the cold and sharp feeling from the pool invaded his body again.
To Alex it felt like an ice cold cheese grater was running rough shod over his skin, underneath it and within his body.
He could feel gooseb.u.mps popping up over his skin, feel his muscles tightens and spasm from the cold. He felt as if he was stretched and then squeezed, rolled and pulled, over and over again. He was trying his best, but Alex doubted he would be able to handle ten minutes of this torture, much less 24 hours. But he had to preserver, at the very least he wouldn"t give up until he"s tried everything that he has to.
Alex began to breath and recite the mantra for the (WUDANG HEART SUTRA), his Qi began to circulate as the jade green yin-yang symbol over his heart and meridian began to rotate. Alex could feel the energy from his Dantian fly out and make numerous and very rapid circulations within his meridian. Every time his qi made a revolution around his meridians, Alex could feel their quant.i.ty reduce as the chill within his body seemed to be absorbing them and spitting out a lesser but more refined version of the energy source.
But even more so was the fact that the jade green symbols acting as shields and filters over his heart and meridian was slowly changing color. But it wasn"t just color that was being changed, the symbols were Coming alive, becoming more than just lines of energy, but actually animated black and white dragons that were busy revolving around each other in the same yin-yang symbol.
Alex felt that they were stronger, and the Qi that he now took from the world into his body was more than five times more refined and purer, giving him more strength and finesse. But this was only just the beginning, the tempering of his body and Qi would take 24 hours.....it"s only been fifteen minutes, and by now Alex knew, he had to lower himself a bit to get more from the pool, I seems the more of your body that was exposed to it, then the more tempered your body will become.
But that was when Alex felt someone looking at him, even in he midst of his highly concentrated state, Alex could still feel the malevolent gaze of someone else on him. Though Alex felt that no one would make a move on him here, seeing as his grandfather was till someone with quite a bit of power, but Alex had no ides how wrong he was.
Even if his grandfather was a G.o.d, there was always someone who would be strong or powerful enough to contend with the old man when the time comes.
However the danger that Alex posed was even more than he imagined, because his threat was to he future, not to the present. And in a world where men and soon of power knew hoe to take their time and plan for years upon end, the very real fact that an extremely powerful and talented youngster would throw a wrench into said plans would force hem to move. It doesn"t matter how fruitful a tree he was going to be, as long as he was In the way, they were going to happily cut him down.
Alex"s eyes shot open, Alex immediately shifted his gaze to Lu Wan who as sitting opposite him with brows tightly knit in concentration. I Alex was to deep threatened in this place, the first person he would suspect was his step brother, but right now, looking at it from a different angle, Lu Wan was in too much discomfort to attempt to scheme against someone else. But then if he was not the one behind all of this, who could it be?
But Alex had no time to find out whoever it as hat was trying to scheme against him, he had ran out of time the moment he felt the platform he was sitting on vibrate. And just before he could do anything, the arrayed platform fell to pieces inside of the pool and without hesitation brought the person it was carrying into the chilly sludge of draconic life essence. And Alex felt pain!
