The Dragon Warrior Pair
DWP 169: Earth Swordsman Training
Passing the first day after undergoing the training process of reaching the earth swordsman, Jing Yang felt a sense of difficulty. Especially now that Jing Yang was unable to speak to the Spirit of the Black One as he usually did.
Jing Yang who followed Xue Qinghua's advice started training at the Black Dimensional Cliff with Xue Rong who became his traveling companion.
“How long have I not spoken to Master?” Jing Yang muttered softly after undergoing the bone forging process. On the other hand Xue Rong was also focused on forging his abilities, in various ways Xue Rong was trying to hone back the fire and ice skills that he was innate in.
Although the ice element was more dominant in its power, Xue Rong also continued to sharpen the flames that were part of his pulse and blood.
Jing Yang and Xue Rong both practiced their abilities. Jing Yang had his own target if he had to reach the earth warrior before he turned thirteen.
Jing Yang's ambition was impossible, but far away in the Black Dimensional Cliff, Jing Yang found something interesting. Something impossible will become possible.
A beautiful place with flowers that bloom beautifully, plus green trees that thrive. Amidst the beauty of it a pool of clear water adjacent to the waterfall into its own beauty.
Jing Yang who had invited Xue Rong into the Black Dimensional Cliff was shocked to see this beauty. The natural resources in the Black Dimensional Cliffs were abundant, just like in the White Dimensional Cliffs.
But among all that, Xue Rong was more interested in the pond and waterfall which Jing Yang thought was the place he had just visited in the Black Dimensional Cliffs.
“This color has a unique aura. Even I feel that the thin smoke that is on the water is very dangerous.” Xue Rong said softly while keeping a distance from the pond.
Jing Yang observed the smoke Xue Rong was referring to as he watched closely, “Dangerous? I think these fumes indicate that this pool holds a big secret. I don't know what it is, but I feel it. Because this place is Black Dimension Cliffs..”.
“My feeling as a woman says that this pool is dangerous. Maybe indeed this pool holds a big secret, just don't do careless actions Junior Yang.”.
Xue Rong stared intently at Jing Yang who was coating her body with an aura, this girl realized that Jing Yang was about to do something she had been thinking about.
“Sorry Senior Rong, I will try to enter this pool. I'll take off my clothes, so Senior Rong faces back.” Jing Yang said as he looked at Xue Rong who looked like she wanted to say something to him, but in the end Xue Rong turned her back.
Jing Yang undressed one by one slowly before entering the pool he had just found in the Black Dimensional Cliff.
Shortly after his feet came into contact with the pool water, Jing Yang felt as if he had been struck by something terrible. His mouth was wide open and he groaned in pain as his legs limped into the pool further and submerged his body.
Immediately Xue Rong turned his head and was shocked as he looked at the pool of water Jing Yang entered turning red. Moreover, Jing Yang's condition was so alarming.
Just as Xue Rong was about to stop Jing Yang's actions, she stopped her steps because Jing Yang was looking at her sharply. The gaze was meaningful and Xue Rong finally followed Jing Yang's wishes.
“Then I will train alone. I'll come to this place to deliver food.” Xue Rong smiled faintly before leaving Jing Yang who had rounded his resolve to break through the earth warrior.

After soaking for a few hours, Jing Yang finally found out if the pond that was now being forged his body and opened up all the pores and aura connecting points in his body was named the Dragon Pool.
Within two days Jing Yang remained soaking inside the Dragon Pool, ignoring the soft voice of Xue Rong who repeatedly told him to eat and stop the practice.
In these two days Jing Yang tried to familiarize his body with the water within the Dragon Pool. Little by little Jing Yang finally found out if the Dragon Pool had amazing properties, it was just that the risk Jing Yang had to take would be to risk his life.
“The earth warrior will not be able to penetrate with my current abilities, but if I use the Dragon God Body it is not something impossible.” As Jing Yang muttered, he began to concentrate fully before finally the sound of cracked bones echoed around him.
Jing Yang felt his body absorb the properties of the water within the Dragon Pool, not until five seconds did his mouth open wide and spew out a large amount of blood. Even his entire body looked like it was exploding, as the blood explosion that filled the pond clearly looked terrifying.
Xue Rong who was watching Jing Yang repeatedly wanted to save and stop him, but in the end Xue Rong paused her intentions.
In order to help Jing Yang's health, Xue Rong ended up hunting Demon Beasts and Vast Beasts. The Animal Spirit Pearls and Demon Gems he placed around the Dragon Pool.
Jing Yang soaked for a whole month. Although it had managed to absorb the efficacy of the Dragon Pool, Jing Yang was still unable to break through the earth warrior.
A shadow appeared in his subconscious that prevented him from penetrating the earth warrior. And, Jing Yang continued to search for the answer of the shadow of someone who looked similar to him, yet emitted a terrifying aura in his subconscious.
Xue Rong who saw Jing Yang walking out of the Dragon Pool immediately hugged him. In just a month's time, Jing Yang's body was so apprehensive. Only his handsome face remained glowing, while his body looked thinner and looked very attentive.
“Senior Rong I..” Jing Yang looked at Xue Rong before finally closing his eyes helplessly.
Xue Rong blushed her face as she realized she was hugging Jing Yang who was completely undressed. With trembling hands, Xue Rong was flustered and finally dropped Jing Yang's body.
Jing Yang with the rest of his strength stood up and walked away from Xue Rong. After dressing up, Jing Yang ate Xue Rong's food to recover his strength.
But his body and mind did not go his way. As Jing Yang wanted to continue his training, his body was already on the verge of a boundary. In a flash his eyes closed and his body felt heavy.
“Rest also includes exercise. So take a break..” Xue Rong took out a warm cloth and enveloped Jing Yang's body.
“I'm still strong..” Jing Yang muttered softly before finally falling asleep helplessly.
Seeing Jing Yang's face, Xue Rong smiled to herself. His eyes continued to look at Jing Yang until Xue Rong was shocked when she felt Jing Yang's body emit a terrifying and deadly aura.
“This?” Xue Rong's eyes widened. He sensed that there was a change happening to Jing Yang.
Not yet had Xue Rong recovered her shock, she was startled by Jing Yang's suddenly weakened pulse.
Xue Rong watched the surroundings, then looked at Jing Yang's face, “I think this condition of my body has a match for you. I don't mind this..”.
Xue Rong shudderingly took off her clothes and fell asleep beside Jing Yang clad only in makeshift cloth.
