Chapter 195 Chu Chen: The Gathering God Pond Ate the Heavenly Demon, It Doesn't Count as Me Killing It, Right?
"Sister, where are we? Are we inside the belly of that big villain?"
Inside the spatial area of the Heavenly Demon's abdomen, Chu Chen looked at the surging cold Magic Power around him and asked in confusion.
"I suppose so."
Chu Xin nodded, her round eyes filled with curiosity, "So this is what it's like inside a stomach. Is ours the same?"
The endless Magic Power surged as if the entire space was pressing down to suppress and refine them. The Magic Power here seemed even purer than what the Heavenly Demon released outside.
The Divine Rune Power flowed around Chu Xin and Chu Chen, preventing the swarming Magic Power from coming within a yard of them, yet it wouldn't leave.
"Sister, how do we get out?"
Chu Chen took out some Beast Milk, drank a couple of sips, and asked.
"Let's try the Translocation Talisman first."
Chu Xin held the Beast Milk in one hand and threw out the Translocation Talisman with the other, conjuring a space portal in front of them. The siblings then stepped into it, but the next instant, they appeared in another part of the abdominal space.
"It looks like this Translocation Talisman can only shuttle us around in here, not out."
She looked around, sipped the Beast Milk, and said, "It seems we have to forcibly split this space open."
"Eh?"
Chu Chen suddenly flashed to a nearby spot, picked up a floating Sumeru Ring, and exclaimed in surprise, "Sister, there's even a Sumeru Ring here, and you have many treasures, but they all seem to be affected by this Magic Power."
While speaking, he took out a Holy Artifact from the Sumeru Ring. The Holy Artifact, which should have been bursting with the Power of Laws, was now wrapped in dense Magic Power.
The power of the Divine Rune flowed from Chu Chen's hand into the Holy Artifact.
Sizzle!
When the Magic Power encountered the Power of the Divine Rune, it was like water touching fire, instantly evaporating into black smoke.
Humm!
With the suppression of the Magic Power gone, some pristine Power of Laws emerged from the Holy Artifact.
This Holy Artifact had reached Top Grade, so it was supposed to have very thick Power of Laws. However, it seemed to have barely enough to compare with a Low Grade Holy Artifact, yet it was much purer than that in the Low Grade one, and even purer than in other Top Grade Holy Artifacts.
Clearly, the Power of Laws in this Top Grade Holy Artifact had been corroded almost entirely by the Magic Power, but the Power of Laws that remained had become incredibly pure.
Chu Xin thought for a moment and said, "This must be left by other cultivators who were swallowed by this big villain. Keep looking, there might be other treasures."
"Alright!"
Chu Chen nodded vigorously, and the siblings began to search around in the space.
The dense Magic Power followed closely behind them, trying to refine them, yet afraid of the Divine Rune Power on them, it dared not come close and could only follow from a distance.
"There's something here."
"And here too."
The siblings were joyfully collecting treasures, forgetting all about leaving the space.
After they had traversed the entire area, they had gathered dozens of Sumeru Rings, left behind by cultivators who had been devoured by the Heavenly Demon over countless years.
Some of these Sumeru Rings had already deteriorated, evidently due to the length of time and the erosion of the Magic Power.
It's clear that many more ancient Sumeru Rings might have been completely corroded, with even the treasures inside refined by the corrosion.
"It's time to go, let's break this space directly."
Chu Xin brought out the Emperor's Heavenly Slash Sword, into which endless Divine Rune Power madly surged, with Divine Rune Sword Energy flickering unstably upon it.
Beside her, Chu Chen likewise brought out the Emperor's Sky-breaking Saber, driven by the Power of the Divine Rune.

The surrounding Magic Power, sensing the rich aura of the Divine Rune, scattered in panic, as if the apocalypse had arrived.
However, before the siblings could launch their attack, a figure flew out from Chu Chen's body, hovered in mid-air, and spun around.
"Little brother, how did this little pool come out?"
Chu Xin turned her head toward Chu Chen, asking in confusion.
Chu Chen shook his head and said, "I don't know either."
Buzz!
At that moment, the Gathering God Pond suddenly shook violently, unleashing a terrifying suction force, and instantly, endless magic power was forcibly devoured.
The Gathering God Pond, capable of devouring all energy to transform it into Ancient Divine Power, naturally did not let the magic power escape its fate of being devoured.
However, it had been asleep refining after devouring a vast amount of Spiritual Energy in the Secret Realm last time. It had just woken up, enabling it to devour energy once again.
As the magic power continued to be devoured, the Heavenly Demon preparing to seize the body of the Two-headed Fire Dragon also sensed something was amiss.
"What's going on? Are those two rascals actually devouring my magic power?"
The Heavenly Demon was alarmed and hurriedly sat cross-legged in mid-air, starting to actively mobilize magic power to refine the two rascals inside its body.
Whine!
The Two-headed Fire Dragon, chained by the magic power, was momentarily stunned, then let out an excited dragon cry.
Ha ha, I knew it, those two little demons won't die easily. You damned demon, your end is nigh.
It roared excitedly in its heart.
"No, how can they devour so much magic power?"
The Heavenly Demon found that no matter how much magic power it mobilized, it would be devoured in an instant, and its heart couldn't help but grow more fearful.
"No, why can't I release it?"
It tried to release the two rascals but was horrified to find that it was impossible.
"Damn rascals, I should never have swallowed them."
The Heavenly Demon's guts turned green with regret.
"No!"
It let out a desperate roar to the heavens as its body also transformed into magic power and was sucked into the Gathering God Pond.
It had no physical body, only a soul fused with magic power. This was still pure energy, which the Gathering God Pond directly devoured.
After devouring the Heavenly Demon, the Gathering God Pond transformed once more into a beam of light and entered Chu Chen's body, unresponsive to his attempts to communicate.
Magic power is superior to Spiritual Energy; this time, the Gathering God Pond will hibernate for a longer time to refine it.
Whine!
The magic power chains on the Two-headed Fire Dragon had also disappeared, and it let out a plaintive dragon cry, dashing toward Chu Xin and Chu Chen. It resembled a lost pet finally seeing its owners again, wagging its head and tails, acting coquettishly cute.
"Piggy, I thought you took the chance to run away."
Chu Xin, holding the shrunken two-headed piglet, said cheerfully.
Whine!
The two-headed piglet held its heads high, giving off an air of loyalty, as if it would never run away alone.
Chu Chen looked around, tugged at Chu Xin's sleeve, and asked, "Sister, that big villain was swallowed by the little pool, so it shouldn't count as me killing him, right? Dad won't spank me when he finds out, will he?"
Chu Xin patted Chu Chen's shoulder and said in a tender voice, "Little brother, don't worry. That big villain was eaten by the little pool; it has nothing to do with us. Dad won't spank you when he finds out. Moreover, as long as we find mom and bring her back with us, with mom protecting us, even if dad wants to spank you, he wouldn't dare."
"Mm-hmm."
Chu Chen nodded repeatedly, then looked at the Demon Coffin which was still slowly releasing magic power, murmuring, "This is also a treasure; we need to move it."
