Saint Emperor Devourer of Heaven

Time slowly flowed by as they waited.

No new developments occurred in the Sacred Pool.

It remained as before, with cursed substances appearing every so often, followed by the surfacing of the Dark Fiend.

After surfacing, the Dark Fiend would lie quietly in the pool, resembling a lifeless corpse.

But that wasn't the truth.

After all, it was a Dark Fiend, already corrupted by the Dark Curse, and could not truly be like a corpse; it possessed extreme aggression.

They waited like this for the better part of the day.

Jun Wuxie was almost certain that there would be no other abnormalities in the Sacred Pool, it seemed those Primordial beings were indeed waiting for reinforcements to arrive.

He kept Lan Lan away, originally intending to have Mu Ciyin wait secretly here, but then, uncertain of the situation at the bottom of the pool and unsure when he would emerge, he abandoned the plan as leaving her outside wouldn't be safe.

He wanted Mu Ciyin to enter the Eight-Nine Profound Palace, but she refused, insisting on staying outside with him.

Jun Wuxie thought about it and didn't insist further, figuring that if they encountered any unpredictable dangers at the bottom of the Sacred Pool, it wouldn't be too late to have her enter the Profound Palace then.

He released his Primordial Avatar, instructing it at length before having it hide away, then quietly detoured away, and only when he was far enough from the Avatar's hiding place did he and Mu Ciyin emerge conspicuously.

The instant they appeared, all the Saint Ancestor-level Primordial beings on the periphery turned to look, their fierce gazes filled with vigilance and apprehension, sensing the powerful aura emanating from them.

Near the Sacred Pool, more than twenty Supreme Saint Realm Primordial beings also turned their gazes, locking onto them.

These Primordial beings were somewhat surprised that, under these circumstances, humans would dare to appear here so brazenly.

Their primary focus was the human woman, whose aura suggested an extremely high realm, possibly reaching the peak of the Supreme Saint Realm.

But the Primordial beings quickly relaxed.

Humans, on this island where divine abilities and secret techniques couldn't be used, were no match for them, even at the peak of the Supreme Saint Realm.

In terms of physical strength, humans were far inferior to them, these descendants of Primordial bloodlines.

They were all pure-blooded descendants, and although their bloodlines weren't perfectly pure, their purity was high, granting them naturally powerful physiques.

Among these Supreme Saint Realm Primordial beings, the most confident were the Primordial Unicorn Beetle and the Primordial Silver Armor Beetle.

Due to their body structures, these two types of armored Primordial beings possessed extremely abnormal physical strength.

Although their realms were only at the Great Perfection of the Middle Celestial Position in the Supreme Saint Realm, their physical divine strength was no weaker than the other Supreme Saint Realm Great Perfection of the Upper Celestial Position Primordial beings present, and they possessed unparalleled defense.

However, these Supreme Saint Realm Primordial beings still maintained a hint of vigilance, not completely disregarding these two human cultivators.

Daring to appear so brazenly, they must have some reliance, and they couldn't afford to capsize the boat due to underestimation.

Although they weren't humans, they possessed high intelligence, having cultivated to the Supreme Saint Realm.

"What tempting Pure Origin Supreme Saint Spring, such a rare resource!"

Jun Wuxie looked at the Sacred Pool with fervent eyes, putting on a greedy act.

The Primordial beings stared at him coldly, maintaining their silence, wanting to see what these two humans were up to.

Since they couldn't obtain the resources in the Sacred Pool now anyway, they weren't in a hurry to act.

Jun Wuxie and Mu Ciyin walked straight to the edge of the Sacred Pool under the cold gazes of the Supreme Saint Realm Primordial beings, looking at the clear water within, its white light causing a visually greenish tinge due to its depth.

"Why don't you all take some?"

Jun Wuxie stood at the edge of the Sacred Pool, looking at the Primordial beings with a surprised expression.

The flesh around the mouths of the Primordial beings twitched slightly, thinking, 'Do you think we wouldn't have taken it already if we could? This Sacred Pool harbors great danger; who dares to touch it?'

That Dark Fiend in the Supreme Saint Realm was definitely not something cultivators in the Supreme Saint Realm dared to touch.

They had tried throwing stones into the Sacred Pool, and instantly, a large amount of gray-black cursed substance emerged from the bottom of the calm Sacred Pool. The entire Sacred Pool turned into a huge vortex, generating terrifying suction that distorted and shattered the space above it.

Moreover, after the vortex formed, terrifying, shrill sounds came from the bottom of the Sacred Pool, making them feel chills all over their bodies, with evil and eerie auras surging out like a tide.

Therefore, they were waiting, waiting for a stronger Primal Chaos-level existence to come and suppress the Dark Fiend.

That way, although the greatest opportunity would fall into the hands of the Primal Chaos powerhouse, they could at least get a share of the Sacred Spring.

These Sacred Springs could help them, in the Supreme Saint Realm, to improve their realms. If they could obtain some of the Mother Spring, it could even evolve the purity of their bloodlines, potentially transforming them into flawless pure bloods!

On this island, any intruder, no matter how high their realm, would be suppressed to below the Primal Chaos Realm, but the native creatures on this island wouldn't be subject to this suppression.

Since ancient times, passed down through generations, they knew that outsiders had landed on this island long ago, so they were very clear about the restrictions placed on outsiders on this island.

"Humans, why don't you try taking some Sacred Spring and see."

The Primordial Rift Leopard spoke in a kind of ancient language, different from the language of this era, but with many similarities, only with a strange accent.

"What's so difficult about that? The Sacred Spring is right before my eyes. I'll not only take it, but I'll take it wantonly. You all are just standing around the Sacred Pool, watching enviously, probably afraid you'll be blinded by envy."

"Heh!"

The Primordial Ancient Centipede let out a cold, gloomy laugh, clearly finding the human's words very laughable, laughing at his ignorance and recklessness.

"Don't disbelieve me; if I really take it, I'm afraid you'll be so envious, jealous, and hateful that you'll attack me without any limits."

"You can take it as you please; we won't attack you."

In their view, as long as the humans before them dared to touch the Sacred Spring, they were doomed.

As for saying they wouldn't attack, that was, of course, a lie.

Even if these two humans were to be entangled by the Dark Curse and turn into Dark Fiends, posing a threat to them, let alone if a miracle really occurred and they successfully took the Sacred Spring, how could they possibly watch these two humans take away such precious resources right under their noses?

In the eyes of the Primordial beings, from the moment these two people appeared, their deaths were already destined, with no other possibility.

"Then you all watch carefully."

Jun Wuxie was confident and composed, his smile radiant.

After he finished speaking, he pressed his palm against Mu Ciyin's hand, his fingers passing through the gaps between hers, and then they grasped each other tightly, interlocking their hands.

"Everyone, I'll be intercepting this opportunity halfway."

After Jun Wuxie finished speaking, he pulled Mu Ciyin and jumped into the Sacred Pool amidst the Primordial beings' sneering gazes.

The sight left the Primordial beings stunned.

They had originally thought he would use a spatial artifact to collect the Sacred Spring, but who would have thought he would directly jump into the Sacred Pool?

After a brief moment of astonishment, the Primordial beings sneered.

Wasn't this behavior no different from jumping into a grave?

With a *thump* sound,

Jun Wuxie and Mu Ciyin fell into the Sacred Pool, causing the Pure Origin Supreme Saint Spring to splash high, creating waves in the pool that spread out over ten meters.

Instantly, a large amount of gray-black cursed substance surged up from the bottom of the pool, countless strands like ropes, wrapping around them.

These Dark Cursed substances wrapped around them in layers, binding them, and then frantically burrowing into their bodies.

Jun Wuxie's Star of Life activated its devouring power, and all the Dark Cursed substances that entered his and Mu Ciyin's bodies were instantly swallowed into his Star of Life, ground by the Millstone of Annihilation, emitting miserable, unwilling roars.

The Primordial beings near the Sacred Pool were originally waiting leisurely to watch them be devoured by darkness and turn into Dark Fiends.

As a result, after those dark substances entered the bodies of those two humans, no abnormalities occurred at all.

How could this be?

The Primordial beings were astonished, shocked, and couldn't understand, all sorts of emotions surging into their hearts at once.

At this moment, the Sacred Spring in the Sacred Pool began to rotate, forming a huge vortex, instantly pulling Jun Wuxie and Mu Ciyin towards the bottom of the pool.

"Not good! Those human man and woman have treasures that can resist the Dark Curse!"

The Primordial beings finally reacted, wanting to attack, but stopped themselves, afraid of being contaminated by the Dark Curse, and could only watch as the targets disappeared into the Sacred Pool's vortex.

"Damn it, those cunning humans!"

"No wonder they dared to jump into the Sacred Pool so unscrupulously; it turns out they have treasures that can resist the Dark Curse!"

"Hmph! Those Dark Cursed substances are just a slight overflow from that Dark Fiend; their power is far from comparable to the curse within the Dark Fiend's body. Those two will surely die when they encounter the Dark Fiend after being sucked to the bottom of the Sacred Pool."

"We don't need to be angry about this; at most, there will be two more Dark Fiends. When the Primal Chaos Saint Realm experts arrive, they can easily suppress them, which isn't a disadvantage for us."

"We don't know what the situation is at the bottom of the pool. What if they don't encounter the Dark Fiend and instead obtain the Mother Spring of the spring eyes? Wouldn't our waiting these days be in vain?"

"Even so, they will eventually come out. We'll guard here, and they won't be able to escape!"

"All we need to do now is wait; why seek trouble for ourselves?"

… …

In the Sacred Pool, Jun Wuxie and Mu Ciyin were sucked in by the vortex, and their bodies quickly fell to the bottom of the pool.

Although the Sacred Spring was relatively clear, visibility in the water was severely weakened, and they could only see a distance of a few dozen meters.

There were a large number of bones at the bottom of the pool, both human and beast.

These white bones were mostly tinged with black, not the black of decay, but the black of being tainted by the aura of darkness.

Jun Wuxie didn't know how large the world at the bottom of the pool was, because he could only see a few dozen meters around him.

He and Mu Ciyin swam at the bottom of the pool, exploring the area.

As they swam, a figure suddenly appeared in their sight.

It was a woman in white, as beautiful as snow, with a lithe and exquisite figure, perfect in every way, and she possessed a dreamlike beauty in the water.

The woman was dancing in the water, her dance extremely beautiful, captivating, making it difficult to look away.

As her dance unfolded, her dress fluttered in the water, revealing jade-like white arms, long and beautiful legs, delicate and exquisite feet, and full breasts surging in the water with her dance.

During her dance, the woman continuously approached Jun Wuxie and Mu Ciyin, dancing around them in the water, displaying the ultimate charm, a scene that made one's blood boil, her eyes shining with a strange light that seemed to capture one's soul.

The woman gradually moved closer, almost touching Jun Wuxie.

Her ink-like black hair floated in the water like silk, occasionally brushing against Jun Wuxie's cheeks and neck, seducing and teasing him.

At this moment, Jun Wuxie's eyes had become infatuated, as if he were completely immersed in this enchanting scene, indulging in boundless beauty.

The woman's breathtakingly beautiful face was full of captivating smiles, every facial expression filled with irresistible allure.

Just then, as the woman approached, her beautiful face, her entire head opened like a man-eating flower, revealing dense rows of sharp teeth, and suddenly enveloped Jun Wuxie, about to devour him.
