The Ancestral Dragon Pool, as the Golden Dragon Emperor mentioned, was originally meant for dragons to cleanse their blood and grow.
This process was not just a matter of the body, but also the spirit.
The "blood cleansing" process is the last that takes place before one exits the pool. Before one can gain the opportunity to cleanse their blood, they first needed to obtain the approval of the ancestors.
This was naturally done through a series of tests taken once one dove to the limit of their endurance, offered by the remnant souls slumbering in the specified area.
After obtaining the approval of an ancestral dragon, the young dragon would be granted a portion of the ancestor's bloodline memories and power, which would help them define their future growth path. The immense combined benefits of these many processes would gradually show themselves as the genius grew, manifesting as heaven-defying talent and potential.
