"Within Dragon-Phoenix Haven, besides the ordinary Dragon-Phoenix Pools scattered throughout, there's another kind of pool that very few people know about, much less have found. It's called a Super Dragon Phoenix Pool!"
"A Super Dragon Phoenix Pool?" Zi Yan stopped poking at the campfire and turned her head. A spark of genuine interest finally lit up her violet-gold dragon eyes.
"Yes." Long Qingyue nodded firmly.
Then she said, stressing every word, "Just one Super Dragon Phoenix Pool is enough to cleanse someone and give them the 'dragon body' or 'phoenix body' needed to ascend within Dragon-Phoenix Haven."
"And the result isn't some False Dragon Body or False Phoenix Body. It's a True Dragon Body or True Phoenix Body, genuinely comparable to a member of the Dragon Clan or Phoenix Clan."
Firewood crackled in the flames. A few sparks flew up, then vanished into the night.
At Long Qingyue's words, a hush fell over the campfire.
The branch Zi Yan had been using to poke the fire went still. She raised her head, her violet-gold dragon eyes startlingly bright in the firelight as she studied Long Qingyue with interest.
Lin Ming tapped his long fingers twice against his knee. Firelight flickered in his abyss-deep eyes, revealing nothing of what he was thinking.
After a while, Lin Ming spoke in his usual calm voice. "Dragon-Phoenix Haven must have opened at least ten times since ancient times. If a treasure like the Super Dragon Phoenix Pool truly exists, then even if few people learned of it each time, quite a number must know its location by now."
He looked at Long Qingyue with interest and continued, "I imagine other factions also know of the pool you mentioned. If several of them converge on it, gaining anything there won't be easy with your strength."
