The heavenly pool steamed with immortal rosy mist, with brilliant light rain fluttering around, resembling a pool for transforming into immortals.
It was enveloped within the flowers of a colossal Fusang divine tree.
Below it, the devil embryo greedily sucked in the essence liquid overflowing from the top of the heavenly pool.
This was likely the essence of Separating Fire, possessing the effect of tempering all things, capable of refining the most essential elements of everything to their absolute limit.
Although it could not compare to the true immortal transforming pool in the Jade Pool, such an act of creation was clearly enough to tempt Luo Chen. The devil embryo trembled. Although it was merely a projection, its aura was exceptionally terrifying. If the true body were here, Luo Chen would have probably fled long ago.
Because it might truly be the offspring of a divine being, innately incomparably powerful. If it were to be born, it would absolutely be an existence capable of sweeping across a great realm. Even in the future, it would likely be a supreme being stirring up the winds and clouds of a region.
However, it obviously posed no threat to Luo Chen at present.
Luo Chen ignored the roars and fury of the devil embryo, leaping up to climb the Fusang divine tree.
“Mortal, what are you doing?” The devil embryo was greatly alarmed, clearly somewhat panicked, thinking Luo Chen was going to do something to it.
After all, it could not act right now. If Luo Chen continued to attack it, it could only endure it.
But Luo Chen did not even glance at the devil embryo, taking a few steps to jump directly onto the flower of the Fusang divine tree, standing beside the heavenly pool.
The flower was enormous, its stamen emitting a fragrant scent, much like lilacs, yet it was exceptionally scorching.
“With your ability, you want to scheme for the heavenly pool?” A mocking voice transmitted from within the devil embryo. Clearly, the embryo had not yet foreseen its upcoming encounter.
It assumed Luo Chen wanted to collect a bit of the essence from inside the heavenly pool.
But that essence was incredibly hot, with a temperature even higher than magma. Let alone collecting it, an ordinary person would die just from touching it.
Therefore, the devil embryo mocked Luo Chen and was not worried in the least.
“A tiny mortal dares to covet such an opportunity, truly laughable and pathetic,” the devil embryo mocked again.
“How can you be so sure I cannot covet it?” Luo Chen retorted.
“Hmph, just relying on you, that high temperature will melt you instantly. And even if the high temperature does not melt you, how could the essence within the heavenly pool be endured by your mortal flesh?” The devil embryo’s voice revealed a cold sneer.
The Separating Fire essence in the heavenly pool was the residual essence left by the Golden Crows that inhabited the Fusang divine tree.
In ancient times, the Golden Crows represented the sun!
How terrifying was the heavenly Separating Fire that smelted all things, making all things live and perish?
And how could mere mortals like them resist it?
In the eyes of the devil embryo, Luo Chen was not seeking fortune, but courting death!
The devil embryo had even prepared itself to sit back and watch the show.
But the next moment, it was stunned.
Because Luo Chen leaped and jumped straight in.
The heavenly pool instantly began to boil, like a jug of water thrown into a cauldron of boiling oil, exploding and splashing in all directions.
But Luo Chen appeared completely unharmed, at least on the surface.
In reality, Luo Chen felt intense stinging pain. Even with the Tai Huang Sutra protecting his body, he still felt unbearable agony, as if his very soul was being ignited.
However, Luo Chen gritted his teeth, sat down cross-legged, and began to absorb the Separating Fire essence.
Back when he had not yet become an immortal sovereign, he had even stolen the chaos fire of an immortal inheritance in the immortal realm.
So although this Separating Fire essence caused him great pain, this level of suffering was child’s play to Luo Chen.
In the end, Luo Chen’s expression had already become very relaxed.
The Tai Huang Sutra within his body continuously circulated, beginning to frantically absorb the Separating Fire essence.
The devil embryo was dumbfounded, letting out a scream for the first time, and it was a girl’s scream.
“How is it?”
“Is the bathwater tasty?” Luo Chen deliberately teased.
This made the devil embryo tremble with rage, as if it wanted to break out of its shell and be born early.
She was the offspring of a god, destined to become a god in the future. How could she allow this to happen?
How could she drink a mortal’s bathwater?
But the essence overflowing from the heavenly pool above automatically dripped onto the devil embryo’s shell, where it was absorbed by her automatically.
She could not resist, but this was a humiliation.
This was truly desecrating a god.
If one could look inside the devil embryo, they would find a woman.
Her bare body was wrapped in a thick, mysterious liquid, rendering it unclear.
But that face possessed a beauty that no modern woman could compare to.
It was too beautiful, breathtakingly so, as if flowers would automatically close just from a single glance.
That kind of beauty was different from worldly beauty, different from physical beauty.
It was a beauty that struck directly at the soul and shocked the heart!
But now, that beautiful face was full of fury.
“Damn it, I will kill you!” The devil embryo was too furious.
A future god of dignity was now drinking a mortal’s bathwater.
If this were spread around, it would surely shake heaven and earth, or even become a great joke that resonated through the ages!
“Get out, get out right now!”
“Ah, I will definitely kill you, then prevent you from entering reincarnation, making you suffer in eternity!” A heaven shaking killing intent emanated from within the devil embryo.
But Luo Chen remained unmoved, still frantically absorbing the Separating Fire essence inside the heavenly pool.
The devil embryo had been enraged to the point of madness. She was no longer thinking about why Luo Chen could absorb the Separating Fire essence.
She only had one thought now, which was to kill Luo Chen, then revive him, and then kill him again.
Cycling endlessly like this, otherwise she would never be able to quell the anger in her body.
After all, such a thing had never happened in all of history.
But now, with her noble status, she actually had to face such a thing.
The devil embryo kept roaring, but Luo Chen no longer paid it any mind.
Finally, after absorbing enough, Luo Chen slowly stood up.
More than half of the Separating Fire essence had been absorbed.
Luo Chen originally wanted to continue absorbing it.
But his body was already saturated, and refining this kind of Separating Fire essence would probably require a considerable amount of time.
He might even need to seal his cultivation and devote all his cultivation into refining it.
Because he could now feel the Separating Fire essence within his body running amok.
It was as if it would break through his body at any moment.
Luo Chen jumped down from the Fusang divine tree and walked towards the shore, the roars of the devil embryo still in his ears.
This grudge was definitely taken on.
And it was a great grudge!
But Luo Chen did not have the slightest fear. However, perhaps even Luo Chen did not know that the creature inside the devil embryo was a woman.
If he had known, he would not have done this.
Afterwards, Luo Chen climbed up the other side of the mountain that had already soared into the star river.
That was his ultimate goal for this time!
The Kunlun Queen Mother’s sacred abode, the Yaochi Sacred Land!
