The Mueller family member exclaimed, “Ms. Selma, I really don’t know anything about celestial energy!
novelbinAt that moment, the Mueller family was cursing their luck. Every single time, they seemed to be the
ones chosen for risky endeavors.
“You don’t need to. Just go down and check if there’s any danger,” Selma said.
Left with no other choice, the Mueller family member proceeded with extreme caution. With a single
leap, he descended toward the celestial energy pool.
The moment he came into contact with the pool, a powerful surge of aura targeted his elixir field.
Bang!
In just a fleeting moment, he shockingly met his end in a violent manner. Upon witnessing this scene,
both Selma and Leighton were dumbfounded.
“What… What’s going on here?” Selma asked in bewilderment.
This was something beyond her knowledge.
Leighton was just as bewildered. He had merely speculated that the pool was made up of celestial
energy.
Now that the person who went into the pool had exploded and died, Leighton didn’t dare speak
recklessly.
“Why is it that nothing happened to Jared when he jumped in?’
Leighton was utterly perplexed.The others just stood by, unable to provide an explanation.
“Ms. Selma, we can’t just keep keeping watch here,” Leighton said with a frown.
“What should we do? What if we leave and Jared shows up?” Selma said.
“Ms. Selma, I don’t think all of us need to stay here. I’ll keep vigil with some men, while you can go and
explore the area. If you encounter the holy maidens from Lunarius Palace, capture them at once. I’ve
noticed that Jared seems to be quite concerned about them. When the time comes, we can use these
maidens as leverage to force Jared to show himself and hand over the statue!” Leighton proposed.
After a moment of contemplation, Selma nodded and said, “Alright, let’s do that. You must keep a close
eye on him. The moment Jared shows up, you must inform me immediately.”
“Got it!” Leighton nodded in agreement.
Selma subsequently left, leaving only Leighton and his men waiting there.
At that very moment, Jared continued to dive deeper into the celestial energy pool.
In the end, Jared found himself sinking straight to the bottom.
Surrounded by an overwhelming amount of liquified celestial energy, every pore on Jared’s body
greedily absorbed the celestial energy.
With such a vast amount of liquified celestial energy, Jared couldn’t imagine the extent his celestial
energy would be elevated after he was done absorbing them.
Moreover, he was certain that after absorbing all of the liquified celestial energy, even Selma, a Top
Level Tribulator, would be no match for him.
By then, Jared wouldn’t have to run anymore. He could just take out the entire Mueller family.They were, after all, as annoying as insects.
As Jared was focused on fervently absorbing the celestial energy around him, the statue he was
holding began to shimmer with light unexpectedly.
Countless streams of liquified celestial energy were actually spiraling around the statue while being
sucked into it.
A massive vortex emerged, akin to a whale swallowing down water.
When a significant amount of liquified celestial energy was absorbed by the statue, one could see with
the naked eye quickly it diminished.
“D*mn… Stop, stop. I found this. Leave it for me, leave it…”
Jared was utterly dumbfounded as he watched the scene unfold.
The celestial energy pool he had painstakingly discovered was being voraciously drained by the statue.
However, the statue didn’t cease, but continued to absorb the energy relentlessly.
Frustrated, Jared slapped the statue twice, but it was to no avail.
As Jared watched the liquified celestial energy dwindle, he became frantic.
Yet all he could do was fret, as there was no solution in sight.
Meanwhile, Leighton, who was back at the surface, noticed the water in the pool decreasing rapidly. He
hastily informed Selma about the situation.
This unusual occurrence left Leighton feeling somewhat puzzled.“Kid, don’t you know Extremus Frost Flame? See if you can freeze this liquified celestial energy. As
long as you can freeze some of it, I suspect the statue won’t be able to absorb it anymore,” Vermilion
Demon Lord advised Jared.
