Chapter 686: Chapter 685: Drawing Out the Bones and Recasting

Gazing at the spectral Divine Dragon before him, Lin Yun felt as if he were facing a living, breathing Divine Dragon. Its pure, terrifying Dragon’s Suppression was a testament to its power.

Its majestic eyes looked upon Lin Yun. After a long moment, the Divine Dragon finally spoke in a deep voice. ”Human, you have entered the Cyan Dragon Palace seeking its inheritance. This is only the beginning. Before you is the Dragon Transformation Pool. If you wish to obtain the inheritance of the Cyan Dragon Palace, then enter it.”

The spectral Divine Dragon showed no emotion as it faced Lin Yun, nor did it show any anger at his lack of respect. It was as if, in its eyes, Lin Yun was nothing more than an ant.

As the spectral Divine Dragon’s voice faded, the Dragon’s Suppression weighing on Lin Yun slowly dissipated. Lin Yun got back to his feet and looked at the white lake before him. This was the so-called Dragon Transformation Pool.

Without hesitation, Lin Yun slowly walked into the Dragon Transformation Pool. The moment he entered, he felt as if something was forcefully pulling him down into its depths.

He was completely unable to resist. Lin Yun could only allow this strange force to drag him deep into the Dragon Transformation Pool.

He didn’t know how deep this Dragon Transformation Pool was, but even after a full hundred breaths, Lin Yun still hadn’t reached the bottom. By this point, his expression had turned exceptionally grim.

It felt as if his bones were being forcefully ripped from his body. Inside the Dragon Transformation Pool, all the bones in Lin Yun’s body weren’t shattered but were instead extracted one by one, pulled right out of him while he was still alive.

The bones of his hands, the bones of his legs—every single bone was pulled from his body. Lin Yun could even see his own skeleton floating around him.

The excruciating pain nearly caused Lin Yun to pass out, but the spectral Divine Dragon’s voice seemed to echo right beside his ear. ’If you fall unconscious, you won’t be able to forge the Dragon Bone...’

Hearing the spectral Divine Dragon’s voice, Lin Yun clenched his teeth, refusing to let himself pass out. As his bones were pulled out one by one, Lin Yun was left as little more than a sack of skin and flesh, drifting in the Dragon Transformation Pool.

He had no idea how long it took, but eventually, every bone in his body had been brutally extracted. At the same time, the Divine Dragon skeleton within the Dragon Transformation Pool slowly dissolved, merging into the water.

Above the Dragon Transformation Pool, the spectral Divine Dragon also began to fade away, muttering softly, ’Forging the Dragon Bone... I wonder if he can survive it.’

In the Dragon Transformation Pool, Lin Yun felt completely powerless, unable to even move a finger. After all his bones had been removed, he could feel the pool’s water constantly washing over his body, ceaselessly refining his skin and flesh.

He had no idea how long he’d been floating in the Dragon Transformation Pool, but it felt like a very long time had passed. It was the ultimate torment. Other than the sensation of the pool’s water washing over him, Lin Yun felt nothing at all.

He couldn’t feel the passage of time. Just as Lin Yun had grown almost numb to it all, the water of the Dragon Transformation Pool, which had been constantly washing over him, suddenly grew violent.

A spectral Divine Dragon appeared before his eyes. With a dragon’s cry, it charged directly into his body.

Instantly, Lin Yun felt a pain beyond compare, a sensation he couldn’t possibly describe.

It felt as if his flesh and blood were being churned together. Besides the excruciating pain, the only other thing Lin Yun could feel was the sensation of a new skeleton regenerating within him.

Forging the Dragon Bone was an extremely painful process. Not only did it take an incredibly long time, but one had to endure the ultimate agony every single moment. If you couldn’t hold on, the forging of the Dragon Bone would end in failure.

He couldn’t even scream. Lin Yun didn’t know how long this agonizing pain would last. All he knew was that every moment, he was enduring unparalleled suffering.

He couldn’t perceive the passage of time in the Dragon Transformation Pool. Lin Yun had no idea how long it had been, but after an endless wait, the Dragon Bone inside his body was finally, completely forged.

At this moment, Lin Yun felt no excitement at all. Too much time had passed; he no longer even knew why he should be excited.

His body was full of Energy. Lin Yun’s physical form had been completely reforged by the Dragon Transformation Pool. First his blood had been replaced, then he had spent an immense amount of time in the pool.

The waters of the Dragon Transformation Pool had continuously washed over his flesh and blood, while the Divine Dragon skeleton had become the bones within his body. It could be said that Lin Yun’s physical body had undergone a complete metamorphosis, becoming immeasurably stronger than before.

The skeleton inside Lin Yun’s body was now golden, emitting a brilliant Golden Light. It looked majestic and domineering.

With the forging of the Dragon Bone complete, the Dragon Transformation Pool had served its purpose. He shot out of the pool and hovered in the air above it. He could see that the Dragon Transformation Pool was now crystal clear; the milky-white liquid had completely vanished.

He didn’t know how long he had been in the Dragon Transformation Pool, but all of its Energy, along with the Divine Dragon skeleton, had been completely absorbed by him.

His expression was calm. After forging the Dragon Bone, Lin Yun looked toward the bank of the pool. A person-sized Stone Gate had opened. ’That must be the exit,’ he thought.

He glanced around the Dragon Transformation Pool. The massive Divine Dragon skeleton was gone. Lin Yun knew it had merged with his body, becoming the golden skeleton within him.

If someone could look inside Lin Yun’s body now, they would discover that not only was his blood golden, but even his bones and organs glittered with a Golden Light.

One could say that Lin Yun’s current physical body was, in fact, the body of a Divine Dragon—immeasurably powerful and majestic.

His body had undergone a monumental transformation. Although Lin Yun’s outward appearance hadn’t changed, his aura was completely different.

If the old Lin Yun gave the impression of an invincible General, then the current Lin Yun’s aura was more like that of an unquestionable, unopposable Emperor.

The pressure he unconsciously radiated made people instinctively want to obey his commands, as if he were a born King who could not be defied.

Of course, Lin Yun himself couldn’t sense any of this. Not lingering by the Dragon Transformation Pool, Lin Yun walked into the Stone Gate. After passing through a long corridor, he arrived in a simple, ancient room.

The room was simple and not very large. Aside from a table and a meditation cushion, the only other things were two Jade Boxes placed on the table.
