The power of the God Beating Bowl was indeed something Ye Tianchen did not anticipate. It was his first time experiencing it. Ye Tianchen was definitely not arrogant but could rationally analyze many matters. If he weren’t like this, he wouldn’t have become as strong as he is today. Although he is still far from reaching his goal of Martial Arts Peak, he has always been strict with himself, cultivating without arrogance or impatience, analyzing the enemy’s strength and advantages, and crafting ways to counter them!

After pondering for a while, Ye Tianchen’s attention focused on the pond. Naturally, he heard Little Zhu Yan and the God Beating Bowl talking. The Dragon Whisker Fish clan had produced strong warriors, and from the pure blood inheritance of the Dragon Whisker Fish, it was very possible to comprehend something related to the Immortal Dragon. As for the Dragon Whisker Fish that became supreme in the Mythical Era, whether it really slew the Immortal Dragon, or underwent Nirvana Rebirth, refining its life into Origin Blood to await a new awakening, these were not so important to Ye Tianchen. What mattered was that Ye Tianchen wanted to uncover the secret of this Divine Spring Pond. Why is there a Divine Spring Pond here? The living environment of the Dragon Whisker Fish is quite particular; it couldn’t survive in ordinary water. It’s precisely the divine nature of this spring pond that extends the longevity of the old fisherman, and also strengthens the Dragon Whisker Fish, making it quite eerie.

”Where is the source of this Divine Spring Pond? By exploring this pond, might I find the true Divine Spring Water?” Ye Tianchen couldn’t help but murmur aloud.

”Divine Spring Water? Ye, kid, release me and I’ll tell you where the Divine Spring Water is. You should know, my bowl used to contain Divine Spring Water. If you want to drink it, you’ll need my help!” Upon hearing Ye Tianchen’s muttered words, the God Beating Bowl spoke hurriedly as if grasping at a lifeline.

Ye Tianchen was taken aback; indeed, the God Beating Bowl’s bowl previously contained Divine Spring Water. Yet, it was apparent the spring water wasn’t the bowl’s property; it was something obtained accidentally, stored in the bowl to nurture itself. Perhaps, this rascal really could find the source of the spring water. Not only can Divine Spring Water extend life and heal, but it can also aid cultivation. For Ye Tianchen, finding a large quantity of Divine Spring Water was decidedly desirable.

After contemplating, Ye Tianchen deliberately said, ”No need, I have my own ways. You stay inside; you’re just like that rascal, untrustworthy!”

”Hey, hey, you’re wrong to speak like that, kid. I’m very different from that rascal, aren’t I? I haven’t conned you, have I? All the while, it was this guy trying to mess with you. I’m the good guy!” the God Beating Bowl hastily replied.

”Bah, you’re a good guy? If you could relieve yourself, you would already have done so. Didn’t you suggest I do it?” came Little Zhu Yan’s disdainful voice.

”You... you rascal are too devious! It was clearly your idea, and now you’re trying to drag me down with you. Too unethical!” the God Beating Bowl quickly argued.

”Whose idea was it to leave trails of urine along the way? Ye, kid, you might as well interrogate that stone rascal!” Little Zhu Yan stated confidently.

Ye Tianchen was too lazy to deal with these scheme-makers. Yet, he indeed wanted to discover the source of the Divine Spring Pond, which was crucial for him. If he could obtain some Origin Divine Spring Water, it would be an enormous boon, highly sought after by all cultivators.

After pondering, Ye Tianchen activated a strand of Chaos Qi and released the scheming God Beating Bowl from the bag. As soon as he emerged, the God Beating Bowl started gasping for fresh air, almost as if suffocating. Logically, it didn’t need to breathe. Cultivators at certain stages need neither food nor air to survive; only ordinary mortals must fulfill these basic conditions of life.

Whoosh!

The God Beating Bowl was also no slouch; upon being released by Ye Tianchen, he tried to seize the opportunity and escape. He aimed to charge at Ye Tianchen, attempting to break free from the Chaos Qi’s encirclement. Little did he know, Ye Tianchen already anticipated this, knowing the rascal wouldn’t surrender easily and must be taught a harsh lesson. As soon as the God Beating Bowl tried to flee, Ye Tianchen delivered a heavy punch, sending stars spinning from the bowl’s head. Ye Tianchen was shocked to find that this God Beating Stone was indeed tough; though he put in all his strength, using the power of his physical body to its maximum—strong enough to shatter a mountain—the God Beating Bowl didn’t crack at all. Truly not simple!

”Damn it, kid, are you trying to kill me? Your fist is too strong; I’m going to break!” The God Beating Bowl feigned extreme aggrievement.

”Break your sister, you pervert!” Little Zhu Yan retorted fiercely.

Ye Tianchen glanced at the bowl irritably, then said calmly, ”Just remember, if you dare pull any trick on me again, I’ll suppress you and that other rascal in a cesspit for a thousand years!”

”Hold on, don’t lump me together with that rascal. I’m me and it’s it!” the God Beating Bowl hurriedly said.

”Come with me to investigate the mystery of the Divine Spring Pond!” Ye Tianchen nodded.

”Understood, rest assured, with the two of us in action, none can hinder us!” the God Beating Bowl said confidently.

Ye Tianchen and the God Beating Bowl quietly surveyed the not-so-large Divine Spring Pond, preparing to stealthily delve into it. One purpose was to unveil the mysteries of the Dragon Whisker Fish clan; perhaps the Nirvana Rebirth of the Dragon Whisker Fish that became supreme lies within. At the very least, there’s a chance. Another reason is Ye Tianchen’s persistent sense that there ought to be a Divine Spring Pond here, and its flow direction needs discerning. This presents a major query; perhaps by locating the source direction of this spring pond, he might find the true Divine Spring Water, the source of life. It’s what Ye Tianchen hopes for.

”Hey, you two really aren’t loyal enough to leave me behind like this?” Little Zhu Yan called out as he saw Ye Tianchen and the God Beating Bowl truly preparing to enter the Divine Spring Pond.

”You just stay here and don’t create trouble for us!” the God Beating Bowl chuckled mischievously.

”You’re reaping your own misfortune!” Ye Tianchen said peevishly.

”You... Ye, kid, you’re too disappointing, unfair to me. What kind of friendship do we have? We’re sworn brothers; I’m your elder brother! Now you’re going with that rascal God Beating Stone, not with me. What kind of brotherhood is this?” Little Zhu Yan lamented.

Ye Tianchen shook his head, finding the rascal truly perplexing and not wanting to converse more. Exploring the Divine Spring Pond’s mystery was something Ye Tianchen always wanted to do but hadn’t had the time or chance. Now, with the old fisherman, Xiao Ling, and Wang Luanxiang all asleep, he hoped to discover something before dawn.

”Hold on. We might find other surprises down there, possibly danger, not to mention...” the God Beating Bowl hesitated.

”The Martial Arts World is rife with danger, amid adventures everywhere. Shying away from risk, one cannot attain what they desire!” Ye Tianchen spoke with resolute eyes.

”Alright, but we must leave some backup plan,” the God Beating Bowl contemplated.

Ye Tianchen paused in thought; indeed, during his initial venture into this Divine Spring Pond, it was just a preliminary exploration without diving deep. The pond felt like a bottomless abyss, harboring unknown secrets and mysteries. This time, he aimed for a thorough probe, resolving doubts and seeking the true Divine Spring Water.

Buzz!

After some contemplation, Ye Tianchen channeled power into the bag. He spoke to Little Zhu Yan inside, ”Rascal, we face unknown risks going down, and don’t know when we might surface. If the sun rises and we’re still down, notify Wang Luanxiang about our situation. But be sure they don’t enter here, just live here waiting, understood?”

”Understood, but you gotta let me out first!” Little Zhu Yan grumbled.

”Rest assured, if we’re not back by sunrise, your seal will release automatically. Remember my words!” Ye Tianchen spoke seriously.

”Damn, kid, this is too cunning...” Little Zhu Yan whimpered.

Ye Tianchen and the God Beating Bowl exchanged a glance before silently entering the Divine Spring Pond, without stirring even the slightest of water ripples or alerting anyone. Ye Tianchen and the God Beating Bowl both maintained utmost seriousness, not daring to be careless. The Divine Spring Pond was indeed deep and mysterious, harboring the Dragon Whisker Fish. Some might possess high cultivation realms; perhaps there are unknown entities lurking. Extra caution was vital. Unearthing the root of the Divine Spring Pond might prove challenging; everything remains uncertain. It is precisely due to the unknown that anticipation is sparked, demanding even more vigilance.
