Chapter 286: Soul Cleansing Pool

tack of the Golden Wheel Talisman—that would be courting death.He immediately drew out a palm-sized, round shield from his waist pouch and held it in front of him. At the same time, his two fellow dis...When Lü Yè regained his composure, he found himself standing by a large pool filled with swirling mist. A line of Xian Yuan guards stood near the pool, and their leader, upon seeing the City Lord, immediately bowed in greeting.

The lord waved his hand, dismissing him.

Is this the legendary soul washing pool

Yiyi stood beside him, softly saying, "Lu Ye, the mist seems to be very helpful to me."

She was a spirit, so she was extremely sensitive to the mist. Lu Ye didn't notice anything, but Yiyi could feel it. If she could enter the pool, the benefits she would receive would be unimaginable.

Lu Ye turned his head to look at the city lord standing beside him. "Are you just going to jump down like that"

The city lord stepped forward two steps, bearing his hands behind him, and nodded. "Yes, just jump down," he said. "But you only have three hours of time. After three hours, I will send you back."

He had barely finished speaking when Lu Ye jumped right down. With time running out, naturally he had to seize the opportunity.

Lu Ye's figure kept falling downwards. Soon, he realized something was wrong. This washing soul pool seemed to be...rather deep

The city lord didn't say anything about this.

Just as Lu Ye was about to activate the flying wing pattern, his body suddenly felt lighter, as if some force below him was holding him up. His speed gradually slowed down and finally came to a stop.

My feet landed on something soft and yielding, a sensation unlike anything I'd felt before. It wasn't the hard bottom of the Soul Cleansing Pool. Turning my head, I saw nothing but swirling mist, so thick it blotted out everything. I couldn't see even my own hands. Where were Yiyi and the others

As for their safety, there's no need to worry. They must be somewhere in this soul washing pool right now.

With only three hours of time left, Lu Ye quickly sat down cross-legged.

The situation here reminded him of when he was tempering his body in Longquan back then. It was very similar, but in Longquan, he had to absorb the blood mist to have an effect on his tempering. This place was different. Lu Ye felt that there was a formless and invisible force all around him, constantly drilling into his body.

My body felt light, and my mind clear. The fatigue from days of practice and reading had vanished completely.

This is the power of the Soul Washing Pool, it acts on the soul. It's a pity that Lu Ye's current cultivation level isn't enough, he hasn't reached the level of the soul yet. Otherwise, being here would bring him unimaginable benefits.

Even so, as long as he can absorb and refine the surrounding mist, the improvement to his soul will be immense.

If one doesn't cultivate, there are already such benefits. If one cultivates, what then

Lu Ye hastily acted, constructing a gathering spirit rune within his own spiritual aperture.

As each small funnel-shaped Gathering Spirit Rune was activated, the surrounding mist gathered and surged into Lu Ye's body at an even faster rate. This caused his consciousness to become increasingly clear, and his body lighter and more agile.

Above the Soul Cleansing Pool, the City Lord stood with his hands behind his back, gazing intently. He murmured to himself: “The Four Symbols converging into two, it seems to have some connection with that other symbol...interesting.”

After a short while, half of Lu Ye's scattered soul essence dissipated, leaving only thirty Gathering Soul Runes.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

Feeling the weight of the moment, I reluctantly dispersed all thirty remaining spirit runes.

Things became awkward. The benefits were so close, within reach, but he could only sit there helplessly.

Near the soul-washing pool, the city lord lowered his head to look down, nodding slightly. Lu Ye was able to realize the problem so quickly and even resisted the temptation of the soul mist's enhancement. This surprised him a little.

It seems like this kid is still pretty good. Just as he said before, one shouldn't be too greedy in life. Contentment brings lasting happiness.

The city lord found himself both amused and bewildered by this. He finally understood, what nonsense about not being too greedy, that's all just empty talk.
