A moment later, Withered Wood Zhenren and several Elders rushed over in a panic.
Everyone leaned over the edge of the pool. What they saw made their beards tremble with rage, yet they didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
At the bottom of the clear pool, the nine Bone-Eroding Demon Crystals that had poisoned the water had been completely dug out, leaving nine deep pits in their place.
To make matters worse, from the Vajra Mother Ore bed that served as the Body Tempering Pool's foundation, nine millstone-sized pieces of core ore had been pried away!
The cuts were perfectly smooth, as if they had been sliced off in an instant by the sharp edge of a Divine Weapon.
An Elder's lip twitched. "This Lord Chu... did he come to suppress demons or to strip us bare?"
Withered Wood Zhenren stared at the bottom of the pool in silence for a long time before finally letting out a long sigh. "Forget it."
"The Bone-Eroding Demon Crystals have been removed, so the hidden threat is gone."
