Chapter 1169

At the exact same moment this notification appeared, Xiao Hua and the others could immediately feel their connection with Yuan severed.

With their connection severed, they could no longer sense him. However, they were certain that something bad had happened to him.

"Young Master!" Feng Yuxiang quickly rushed to the Sword Pond.

"Whoa! What do you think you're doing?!" Jin Xi immediately stopped her from recklessly jumping into the water.

"The Young Master is in danger! We need to save him!" She exclaimed with teary eyes.

Jin Xi frowned, and she turned to look at the Sword Pond.

"Unfortunately, it might be a little too late to save him, as his entire body has already been consumed by the pond."

"No!" Feng Yuxiang fell to her knees.

Lan Yingying gritted her teeth and balled her hands so hard that it began bleeding.

As for Xiao Hua, she stood there with a blank expression on her face, and it wasn't her usual nonchalant expression— it was one void of all emotions.

Jin Xi sighed, "Looks like he wasn't anything special, after all. I had high hopes for him, too."

"No." Xiao Hua suddenly uttered in a low voice.

"What?" Jin Xi looked at her with raised eyebrows.

"Brother Yuan isn't dead. There's no way he'd die here." She had a stern look on her face, but it was not due to her confidence in him— it was merely her inability to accept the situation. In other words, she was fooling herself.

"I hate to break it to you, but he's really dead. As someone whose authority in this place is only second to my Master, I can see everything happening within this domain, and I cannot see him. I can also confirm that his body perished at the 1,000-mile mark in the Sword Pond—"

Jin Xi suddenly halted her mouth, and she turned to stare at the Sword Pond with wide eyes.

"There's no way…" She muttered in a low voice.

Meanwhile, inside the Sword Pond.

When Yuan received the death notification, his vision blackened, and all of the sensation in his body was gone. It was almost as though he'd returned to being a cripple.

However, shortly after, he heard a voice resound inside his head.

<'Perfect Regeneration' has evolved to 'Absolute Regeneration'>

With the ability Absolute Regeneration, Yuan was able to fully reconstruct his body even when he was still inside the Sword Pond.

[Rebirth: All healing effects on you will be increased by 1,000%]

Although his body would be perfectly fine even if he used just his naked body to block the Enhanced Sword Aura, it was still incredibly painful, as his regeneration abilities did not negate damage.

After composing himself, Yuan continued to swim deeper into the Sword Pond.

Meanwhile, Feng Yuxiang and the others could suddenly sense that their connection with Yuan had been re-established.

"Why isn't he dead? The Enhanced Sword Aura had clearly destroyed every cell in his body! Don't tell me that he's actually immortal?!"

"Thank the heavens that he's fine…" Feng Yuxiang released a sigh of relief, and she was completely unaware that her drop of blood from when they first met had actually saved Yuan.

Due to his Heaven Consuming Physique, he was able to extract even the forbidden power of rebirth from Feng Yuxiang's blood. However, even Feng Yuxiang wouldn't survive if her entire body was destroyed, so how did Yuan manage to do such a thing?

Unfortunately, the answer would not be found until much later.

After diving for another 500 miles, Yuan finally reached the ground, and sure enough, there was an azure-colored key resting at the very bottom.

Yuan quickly went to pick up the key, and then he proceeded to look around to see if there was anything else down there.

'Oh? What's this?' Yuan barely noticed this black-colored pearl that was halfway covered by sand, and it was the size of an ordinary spirit stone.

He didn't think twice before taking it with him back up to the surface.

The amount of time Yuan had spent inside the Sword Pond was almost an entire month.

When Yuan resurfaced, he was immediately hugged by Feng Yuxiang, who almost suffocated him with her breasts.

"You're okay, Young Master! You really had us worried there for a good minute! What happened down there that caused our connection to sever, something that only happens if one of us dies?"

An awkward smile appeared on his face as he responded to her inquiries, "Actually, I did die down here. However, something resurrected me, and I think it was your phoenix flames."

"Eh? My flames? What do you mean?" Feng Yuxiang was completely puzzled.

"I'm not certain either. It's just a feeling I had down there after I died, as it felt like you were beside me at that moment."

Feng Yuxiang wasn't sure what he was talking about, but she was over the moon to hear that she'd somehow managed to save his life.

"Are you really okay, Yuan?" Lan Yingying asked him.

"Yes, I feel fine. In fact, I have never felt better. Due to the extreme conditions inside the Sword Pond, I was actually able to temper my body down there. My body is stronger than ever now because of that." Yuan flexed his toned muscles.

He then turned to look at Jin Xi, who had been silently staring at him since his return.

"Hey, do you know what this item is? I found it down there." Yuan showed the black pearl to her.

"No clue." She immediately shrugged.

And she quickly added, "I am serious. I don't know the majority of the treasures in this place since they were not placed there by me but by the Master."

"Can I see it for a second, Young Master?" Feng Yuxiang asked.

"Oh, right. You're an expert with treasures. Here. Take a look at this. I can sense an unfathomable power inside, but I don't know what it is." He quickly showed her the black pearl.

Feng Yuxiang didn't immediately recognize it, but when she did, her eyes widened like saucers.

"T-T-This can't be!" She exclaimed.
