390: Chapter 39 Draining the Sacred Mountain Dry! Next!

Su Xiaoxiao looked at Su Chen's eyes, which seemed to burn with the fires of Hell. Her heart skipped a beat unhelpfully.

She subconsciously took half a step back. Then, she cautiously shielded her precious divine mountain, which was shrouded in Immortal Qi and ten thousand streaks of auspicious glow, behind her.

Her posture was like that of a small beast protecting its food.

"Bo... Boss..." Su Xiaoxiao's voice carried a nearly imperceptible tremble.

Her cold and beautiful face was now filled with heartache and reluctance.

"You... You are..."

She wanted to ask, "What are you trying to do?" but the words died in her throat as she caught sight of Su Chen's icy expression, which screamed, "I'm in a terrible mood; anyone who provokes me dies."

She forced herself to swallow her question.

"Xiaoxiao," Su Chen said slowly.

His voice was raspy and low, yet it carried an unquestionable authority.

"Borrowing your mountain for a bit."

Before his voice had even faded...

His figure blurred as he turned into an afterimage, charging straight for the peak of the True Phoenix Divine Mountain.

Su Xiaoxiao stood frozen in place.

She didn't even have time to react.

Elder Su Qi watched from the side, his old face full of gratification and affection.

He walked over to Su Xiaoxiao and patted her shoulder earnestly.

"Xiaoxiao, there's no need to feel distressed."

"It is your blessing that His Highness the Divine Son is willing to use your cultivation grounds! He is doing you an honor!"

"Think about it, what kind of person is His Highness the Divine Son? He is an eternal, peerless Dragon!"

"He is currently a dragon swimming in shallow waters. By taking a bath in your little pond, your pond will be stained with Dragon Qi and transform into a True Dragon Divine Pool in the future!"

"What a massive Opportunity is this? Do you understand?"

Su Xiaoxiao's mouth twitched violently.

She looked at Elder Su Qi's face, which was completely "baptized" by the "divine light of the Divine Son." For a moment, she was speechless.

[Blessing? Opportunity?]

[Seventh Elder, you call this taking a bath? From Boss's posture, it looks more like he's going to drain my pond, water, mud, and all!]

She complained wildly in her heart.

However, she didn't dare to speak up and object.

She could only keep her eyes locked onto the summit of her divine mountain, her heart hanging high in suspense.

At this moment, atop the True Phoenix Divine Mountain.

Su Chen sat cross-legged.

His face was cold and stern, like profound ice that hadn't melted for ten thousand years.

Without the slightest hesitation, he directly pushed the forbidden Demonic Technique he had "borrowed" from the Demonic Sect Saintess Liu Ruyan—the Heaven Swallowing Demonic Art—to its absolute limit!

"Boom—!"

A terrifying aura, black as an abyss and seemingly capable of devouring everything in the world, erupted from his body!

Behind him, an incredibly massive black vortex slowly emerged.

That vortex was deep and deathly silent, as if it connected to an ancient abyss specifically for burying gods and demons!

"Absorb!"

Su Chen let out a low growl in his heart!

The black vortex instantly erupted with a shocking, terrifying suction force!

Buzz, buzz, buzz—!

The entire True Phoenix Divine Mountain shook violently!

Deep within the mountain, the "True Phoenix Profound Ice"—formed from pure True Phoenix Origin and Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi, which was usually as gentle as jade and which Su Xiaoxiao herself couldn't bear to absorb even a sliver of while she would Cultivate...

At this moment, as if receiving an imperial decree, it completely rioted!

Billions of streams of seven-colored Spiritual Qi turned into visible, brilliant bands of light.

They were forcibly extracted from every corner and every inch of rock in the divine mountain by that domineering and peerless suction force!

These bands of light converged into a massive tornado that pierced through heaven and earth.

The tornado let out a world-shaking roar and poured crazily into the black vortex behind Su Chen!

This scene was like installing a super-powered water pump into the vast, boundless ocean!

At the foot of the mountain.

Su Xiaoxiao watched everything before her, her eyes nearly popping out of their sockets.

She felt the Bloodline connection between herself and the True Phoenix Divine Mountain being forcibly severed by a savage, brutal force!

The divine mountain was wailing! It was trembling violently!

The Immortal Qi, so thick it had turned into sweet dew, was rapidly thinning at an avalanche-like speed!

The Wutong Divine Wood scattered throughout the mountain, which had long been extinct in the outside world, saw the life dao rhyme on their leaves drain away rapidly, starting to wither and yellow!

"My mountain! My Wutong wood! My spiritual spring!"

Su Xiaoxiao's heart was bleeding.

Her cheeks turned as pale as paper. She clutched her chest, feeling as though her Dao Heart was being shaken by this suction force.

Beside her, Elder Su Qi's eyelids were also twitching as he watched.

But he still forced a smile and comforted her, "Don't panic, Xiaoxiao, this is a normal phenomenon! His Highness the Divine Son's action is to help you temper the divine mountain's Foundation, removing the impurities and keeping the essence!"

"Once His Highness the Divine Son finishes his cultivation, this divine mountain of yours will surely be reborn and reach a higher level!"

Su Xiaoxiao: "..."

She cursed in her heart: You old man, don't even think about deceiving me!

At the summit, Su Chen was deaf to everything outside.

His mind was completely immersed in the ultimate pleasure of his power exploding frantically!

[Absorb! Absorb it all for me!]

[As long as I don't die from it, keep absorbing with everything I've got!]

[My wives have been snatched away to be some bandit leader's women; what face do I have left? What grace do I need?]

[Power! Right now, I only want power!]

[Only with enough power can I fish those two Crazy Women back from the Netherworld! Only with enough power can I pull that girl Qingzhu back from the Upper Realm!]

[What bullshit Heavenly Dao! What bullshit Laws! As long as I'm strong enough, I'll blow you all up! Then, I will be the heavens! I will be the Law!]

An unprecedented madness and obsession supported Su Chen's Dao Heart.

Under the wash of this violent power, he still maintained a final sliver of clarity.

Time passed, minute by minute.

One hour... two hours... finally, as the third hour arrived.

"Pop—"

A soft sound, like a bubble bursting, came from deep within the core of the True Phoenix Divine Mountain.

Immediately following that, the light of the entire divine mountain, which had originally been surrounded by seven-colored auspicious clouds and Immortal Qi, suddenly dimmed.

It instantly became grayish-white and dull.

The surface of the mountain rocks was even covered with fine cracks, as if they had been weathered by time for millions of years.

That was ironclad proof that its spiritual rhyme had been completely drained dry!

At the summit, Su Chen slowly opened his eyes.

Two streaks of pitch-black demonic light flashed deep within his eyes!

Feeling the terrifying power within him, which was several times more robust and surging than before, his brow furrowed deeply in dissatisfaction.

"Boom!"

Saint King Third Heavenly Layer!

"Boom!"

Saint King Fourth Heavenly Layer!

Draining a cultivation Holy Land that was enough to make even a Great Saint envious, and he only barely managed to Breakthrough two layers?!

"This is way too little to absorb!"

Su Chen curled his lip. His face was filled with undisguised disdain.

He stood up, his gaze like an old farmer inspecting his vegetable garden.

He scanned the divine mountains below that were shivering due to his excessive absorption, his eyes flashing with a thirsty light.

"The next victim... who will it be?"
