Chapter 256: Chapter 227 – The Power of Baptism,
Enhanced Duo Lai Version (3K)_1
It is said that the Pure Soul Source Pool, a treasure site, was a special secret place used by the Ancient Sheng Huang Empire to cultivate national talents. After being baptized in this place, not only can the experience level skyrocket, but it can also make the body and soul purer, and slightly increase the chances for future breakthroughs to the Legendary Realm.
A few teams have already gathered in front of the mountain path leading to the Soul Source Pool.
The one waving at him is a strong man wearing a red-brown long robe. He has a thick beard and short brown hair, looking like a man in his forties.
But in fact, he’s just in his twenties.
This is Ba Long.
Next to Ba Long is the muscular Chiyan Dragon Descendant, who is bare-chested.
The Chiyan Dragon Descendant is staring at General Duo Lai, standing next to Mu Yuan, with a warlike look.
But Duo Lai does not look back at him.
Things he can’t eat, better not seen.
The lords, surrounded by two or three of their generals in the other two teams, one is Lord Kong Ming dressed in extravagant silver armor with a sword at his waist.
The other one is Lord Shen Mao, wearing tight short clothes and a white coat, high boots, a cowboy hat, with slender waist and tall figure.
Among the generals beside her, one is a Boot Cat that only stands up to the knees, while the other is a white beast that cannot be distinguished as a giant white cat or a white tiger.
There is also a top hero she recruited at the Festival Grounds.
As for these lords, as well as their generals, Mu Yuan actually hasn’t had any direct contact with them.
The only powerful person he’s ever confronted is the Chiyan Dragon Descendant.
After the pleasantries, they are secretly observing Dead Bone and Duo Lai, who are following Mu Yuan, and Mu Yuan is quietly observing the powerful soldiers of the other lords.
Soon, Lord Wuji and Lord of Youshan arrived successively.
Lord Wuji dressed in white.
Lord of Youshan dressed in black.
Each of them is accompanied by two or three generals, and the other generals are likely to be temporarily collected in the Lord’s Seal.
They also heard about the change in the competitive mode of the Dragon court.
“The competition modes in the past were not repeated, but they were generally large-scale melee among the corps. This change is quite big.”
Lord Shen Mao lamented, ruffling her hair, “My advantage is the Boot Cat Corps, but now it’s all gone. Damn it!”
But in actuality, as being outstanding among thousands of lords, Lord Shen Mao’s generals are also not weak, and her territory is quite balanced. It’s just that the Boot Cat Corps stands out slightly from the balance.
The small Boot Cat standing by her side is the top ranks among these types of soldiers, and is obviously an Excellent Tier two-star or three-star soldier.
The white tiger next to her has even greater prestige, possesses some sort of bloodline, and its combat power is top-notch.
The so-called most balanced Lord Kong Ming is almost the same.

It is not difficult to gather ten generals of the Excellent Tier, and more than half of them may even be the unparalleled fierce generals of the Excellent Tier’s three-star.
It’s just that the change of mode does really cut off what they are best at.
They are good at commanding troops and large-scale warfare.
Now, they must conduct special operations with elite soldiers.
People’s joys and sorrows are not the same, Lord Ba Long laughed wildly, and the Chiyan Dragon Descendant beside him laughed wildly at the same frequency.
“Let’s see who kills more enemies.”
Ba Long looked at Tianyuan, Wuji, Youshan and a few others.
Lord of Youshan is also very confident. He is one of the chosen lords, who has grown rather unbalanced. If not for the recruitment of the Lord of Roushan and a few powerful generals, he probably wouldn’t have been able to get a representative quota.
But on the other hand, the Lord of Roushan is incredibly strong, so strong that he can even out or gain advantages in large-scale wars.
Generals’ battles? Special operations?
The advantages are on his side!
This mode change is fantastic!
Lord of Youshan was about to accept the comparison of the number of enemy kills, how could a young man not have a passion for it? But when he glanced at the Lord of Roushan next to him, whose huge figure was filled with a cold aura, he swallowed his words, in the end…
He still dared not make random promises on behalf of Lord of Roushan.
If this guy…this lord doesn’t give his best in the competition, he will be miserable. What can he do, he can only coax him with good food and drink. Because the Lord of Roushan is the most powerful individual in the field. But indulging him…is not a loss.
“Alright! I, Benduo, will have a contest with you.”
The blue-haired girl hero from Tianyuan family, full of energy, is eager to compete with powerful fighters like the Chiyan Dragon Descendant.
Another accompanying general is silent and low-profile. If not careful, one might overlook such a presence.
Many lords and generals have overlooked Dead Bone unconsciously.
However, the Lord of Roushan couldn’t look past him.
He glanced at the figure wearing dark black armour and a black cloak, whose face was hidden, and felt an inexplicable irritation, fear, awe, respect, and admiration in his heart.
Glancing at him again!
Keep glancing at him!
This guy…what exactly is his ability, why would he…why did he.Jt’s outrageous!
The Lord of Roushan was very angry, but he could not be angry at this person, and could only vent his anger on himself.
Who exactly is this person!
‘The Lord of Roushan is indeed extraordinary.1
‘No, it’s just that Bone is not strong enough and hasn’t been able to perfectly contain the ‘King’s Might.”
A creature with the might of a king is bound to be the most dazzling light among people wherever it goes, inspiring admiration from the masses.
The talent is constantly effective, naturally does affect oneself and surroundings.
But under Dead Bone’s intentional control, the King’s Might would not be so inconvenient.
After two hours, Dead Bone figured out how to control it and spent the remaining two days practicing and condensing.
It thought it had completely restrained itself, but now it seems…
‘I’ve been careless, falling into the trap of arrogance and pride, how unstable!’
‘When I get back, I’ll punish myself by copying the “Stability Series” a hundred times!’
Not long after they assembled, the Lord of the Twilight Elephant from Tai Xuan Liangyi’s Four Symbols, whom they had met before, also arrived at this place.
“Everyone’s time is of the essence, so I’ll be brief.”
The Twilight Elephant City Lord began, “The Pure Soul Source Pool is a special place between the Miracle Building and the treasure land, I won’t mention its source function anymore now. After the Soul Source Pool is activated later, you will all enter according to the order of your ranks.”
“Of course, whether you are the first team to enter or the last one, you will all receive equal baptism.”
“What we suggest is that each team has 11 people receiving the baptism, including yourself. This is the most appropriate number. If you have more people, it will dilute the efficacy of the baptism, and if you have fewer people, though it will indeed let one person benefit more, it will waste some of the precious upgrading power.”
“Now, let’s move on.”
The group made quick strides and reached the top of the mountain within a few seconds.
In front of their eyes, mist swirled around, guarded by towering stone walls with mysterious patterns carved on their surfaces.
That would be the precious Soul Source Pool.
It’s said to be a pool, but it’s just a misty baptism, like the baptismal energy from the heavens and the earth.
In front of the Soul Source Pool, an old man was sitting in a rattan rocking chair. He slowly stood up as the Twilight Elephant City Lord approached.
“You’re here.”
“Yes, we’re here.”
“Let’s get started.”
The Twilight Elephant City Lord took out a crescent-shaped secret key.
The old guardian also took out a key of the same kind.
Both keys were embedded into the recesses on the left and right stone pillars in front of the Soul Source Pool. Accompanied by a rumbling sound, the stone wall slowly moved outward and opened a large door. There was a white mist inside and a faint golden path sprawled out from the entrance.
“Go ahead.”
The Twilight Elephant City Lord looked at Tianyuan, “Once you get inside, you will have three minutes to prepare. Remember to summon the warriors who need to be baptized. Of course, you can summon them in advance… No, forget the last sentence.”
He thought of Tianyuan’s Frost Giant Dragon and War Treeman.
With their massive size, they probably wouldn’t fit through this door.
After all, the power system of the Ancient Sheng Huang Empire is quite different from the mainstream Lord System today. This facility was originally used to cultivate human talents, but luckily there is plenty of space inside.
“Understood.”
Mu Yuan nodded and led Dead Bone and Duo Lai into it.
The area of the Soul Source Pool is vast, like a basin, with strands and strands of ethereal white mist flowing around. Even without the facilities activated yet, simply stepping inside makes one’s spirit brighten, as if every cell of the body is rejoicing.
Comfort! Eloquence!
His power seemed to be slowly improving.
“Beep- Please note that the baptism will start in 150 seconds.”
Inside the facility, a mechanical reminder sounded.
This was the common language of the Eternal World, and even Duo Lai understood it.
Mu Yuan raised his hand, revealing the clear Lord’s Seal on the back of his hand.
‘Come out, my deputy generals.’
He gently called out in his mind, and one by one, the deputy generals who had already been included in the Mark Space walked out.
A total of thirteen figures emerged.
A Lord, after passing the trials, is no longer capable of accommodating only a small number of soldier types in his Mark Space. High-ranking Lords can even store an entire army.
The reason for the thirteen figures…
“Both the palm and the back of the hand are all flesh.”
Mu Yuan summoned all his epic subordinates to the scene.
The massive Tree Demon Granny, stretching her branches.
The Frost Giant Dragon Sario, on all fours, soaking up the power from the surrounding white mist. His head held high, he roared joyfully at the sky…
Stare
A glance swept over from General Dead Bone.
The Frost Giant Dragon shivered all over, its wings folded down, and like a little cat or dog, it crouched obediently, showing its docility.
Soon,
“Beep- Please note, the Light of Baptism has begun to descend.”
The warm white beam of light, like a waterfall, descended from the sky. It shed onto the baptisers, spreading outwards, and formed an even thicker white fog than before.
This is the baptism.
Although the amount of ‘Light of Baptism’ falling down is the same, it does not mean that the baptisers will yield the same benefits.
After all, this is not a real baptism of the heaven and earth, how much can be absorbed is all up to the individuals.
Is it thirty percent, forty percent, or fifty percent?
Those with high potential or special talents can get more benefits from this process.
But no matter how much a baptiser can absorb, there will always be a lot of ‘baptismal power’ dissipating around, forming a floating white mist.
This is an inevitable waste.
However,
The Light of Baptism and the baptismal mist seem not so stubborn.
They came together like sixteen funnel-shaped tornadoes, heading towards Lord Shepherd and his subordinates, already taking away more than 80% of the baptismal power. The scattered and potentially wasted pure power is exceptionally rare.
But there still is some waste.
At this moment, below one of the funnel-shaped tornadoes, Duo Lai patted his stomach, took a deep breath, and opened his mouth wide.
Between heaven and earth, those slowly dissipating baptismal powers began to gather towards Duo Lai.
