Time passes day by day. Zhao Tianming was like an old monk entering trance. His cultivation level had not increased. However, his bloodline seemed to have revived a little bit, but it was only a little bit. The pressure on him was stronger than before... His cultivation level seemed to be just a little bit stronger. There was no increase, but his body was tempered and baptized, becoming stronger than before.
Unfortunately, he still doesn't know all this. It's a long time. In the blink of an eye, a month passed.
Outside, Lan Tiannan and his group were very patient. The holy spring was as calm as usual, and the formation was still functioning.
Once this formation is running, they have no way to stop it, so the only thing they can do now is to wait, wait slowly.
It’s only been a month. Not urgent. Time is still passing slowly. A year has passed. The expressions of the group of people changed, with a hint of impatience and curiosity.
"Clan leader, it's been a year since he entered." The speaker was an elder who had been guarding this place all year round. He looked a little worried.
"What do you want to say?"
"Will something go wrong? If he dies here, that person will not let us go." The elder said worriedly.
Lan Tiannan disagreed: "You are overthinking it. It's only been a year. Besides, the formation is still running, which means he is still alive and has some patience!" Everyone couldn't say anything.
Time continues to pass day by day. Another year has passed. A group of elders looked at Lan Tiannan and hesitated to speak.
Lan Tiannan coughed: "It's only been two years, are you so impatient? Calm down!" Well, you are the clan leader, and everything you say is right.
Everyone was speechless. Another year has passed. It has been three years since Zhao Tianming entered the Holy Spring. Finally, an elder couldn't help it anymore: "Head, it's been three years and he hasn't come out yet."
"Have you forgotten? Qingmei stayed there for a full six years and six months, and it's only been three years." When he said this, Lan Tiannan's brows also frowned slightly.
Well, you are the patriarch, and everything you said is right... Everyone was speechless again. For four years, they didn't say anything.
Five years later, they still haven't said anything. Six years have come. Finally, the elders couldn't sit still.
"Clan leader, what do you say now? It's been six years, can he surpass Qingmei's time?" Lan Tiannan's brows furrowed tightly.
But until now, he didn't know what happened in the holy spring. The key is that no one can enter at all.
While the formation is in operation, no one can approach the holy spring.
"He was able to be selected by that person, become his true disciple, and get the gourd. It can be seen that his talent must be very evil. People outside are very weak, but it is not without evil. It is normal for him to surpass Qingmei. , just wait." He said so, what can anyone say.
Okay, let's wait. However, seven years have passed. Everyone looked at each other, a little at a loss.
It has been seven years, and the time Zhao Tianming has stayed has exceeded Qingmei's record back then.
"Is he really a genius that is rare in billions of years? But doesn't he have no secret method? Moreover, this holy spring does not have any energy fluctuations, which is a bit abnormal." An elder said solemnly.
"Will he die inside? If he dies, that person will definitely not let us go." Another elder also said.
Lan Tiannan was also a little anxious, and he subconsciously looked at Qingmei. Qingmei raised her eyebrows: "The formation is still running, which means he is still alive. He will not die so easily. Don't forget that he is carrying a treasure. That sword, have you forgotten it? It is a divine weapon. Yes, can any of you enter the holy spring? What's the use of saying this?" Everyone was speechless.
Yes, it's just talk. This formation can't be closed. All we can do is wait for it to stop. There's nothing they can do to help.
Lan Tiannan comforted him: "Don't worry, I think Mr. Zhao will be fine. Just wait patiently." Eight years, nine years, ten years... It has been ten years since Zhao Tianming entered.
Everyone was really panicked. Do we have to wait like this forever? Everyone looked at each other, even more worried.
"If I had known earlier, I shouldn't have agreed to take him to the Holy Spring." An elder said to Lan Tiannan. He is complaining.
"It's okay now. We are riding a tiger and it's hard to get off." Lan Tiannan's face also looked ugly. Doesn't he regret it?
No, he regrets it just as much. But is there any regret medicine in the world? Qingmei also complained: "You should have taught him the secret method a long time ago, and you, guarding the holy spring, don't you know how to stop him?" Khan... all the elders looked at Qingmei angrily.
At this moment, the holy spring suddenly started to ripple.
"Look!" one of the elders exclaimed. The water rippled, and a man rose up from the bloody water. It was Zhao Tianming. His clothes were still dry and clean, and there was no trace of blood at all.
Falling in front of everyone, Zhao Tianming opened his eyes, looking a little confused.
"Mr. Zhao, you finally came out, how do you feel?" Lan Tiannan asked curiously, his expression a little unnatural.
Zhao Tianming said: "I don't feel anything. It seems that my body has become stronger. There is no other special feeling."
"What? Then why did you stay in there for so long?" Qingmei was shocked. Zhao Tianming asked: "Have I stayed for a long time?"
"Ten years, do you think it's a short time?" Qingmei said angrily. Zhao Tianming almost fell down.
He felt like he was having a dream. It was true, he had indeed had a long dream, but he could not remember the scene in the dream at all.
He would not tell these people that he seemed to have awakened some memories from his previous life. Unfortunately, he did not fully awaken, or in other words, he forgot about it again. That would be too embarrassing.
Zhao Tianming smiled bitterly and said: "I really don't know." Lan Tiannan was a little embarrassed: "Mr. Zhao, actually, entering the holy spring requires secret techniques. I didn't have time to teach you, but you jumped in first." Khan... Zhao Tianming was a little crazy and said angrily: "Then why didn't you tell me earlier? Didn't I waste ten years in there?"
"It's not like you have gained nothing. Hasn't your physical body become stronger? I can feel it too. Your physical body is indeed very strong now." Lan Tiannan quickly comforted him.
Zhao Tianming was unwilling: "No, you teach me the secret method, and I will go in again."
"It's useless. Everyone has only one chance to enter the Holy Spring. This is the only chance in life. You have used it. Now that the formation is activated, you can't enter the Holy Spring. You will be rejected." Lan Tiannan continued: "This formation was created by the ancestors of our Celestial Clan, and masters of all generations have been improving and strengthening it. We cannot control this formation. Because of this, even if you have been in it for ten years, we can only worry. I can't stop the formation, so I can't call you." Black lines began to appear on Zhao Tianming's forehead.
Damn it, why didn't you stop me from doing it? I wasted ten years! But at this moment, a sudden change occurred.
Zhao Tianming's Dragon-Slaying Sword suddenly flew above the holy spring. The sword's body glowed with light. The essence and blood in the holy spring below turned into a red light and poured into the Dragon-Slaying Sword. In a moment, the blood pool was empty. , completely dry.
