Fortunately, this worry did not last long before Xiao Mu thought of the Creation Axe.
The Creation Power—he possessed it too. Although different from the raging Creation Power within the Creation Light Screen, it still belonged to the same category, sharing the same origin.
Perhaps, when Creation Power encounters Creation Power, the result might be different.
Taking out the Creation Axe, Xiao Mu thought for a moment, then retrieved a small fragment of a Divine Treasure from his belongings.
The remaining Creation Power in the Creation Axe was already scarce, maybe enough for just two or three more uses before being completely depleted.
Nevertheless, cautious as ever, Xiao Mu decided to test with an object first.
Holding the Divine Treasure fragment in one hand and wielding the Creation Axe in the other, he directed a burst of power towards the fragment.
*Crack!*
A beam of Creation Light shot forth from the axe and struck the Divine Treasure fragment directly.
At this point, the Creation Power within the Creation Axe weakened further, becoming even more faint and translucent. Perhaps one more use, at most two, would exhaust it completely.
At that moment, the Creation Axe would disappear.
The Creation Power unleashed by Xiao Mu was entirely controllable, clinging to the surface of the Divine Treasure fragment, forming a faintly glowing cluster of Creation Light.
Xiao Mu held the fragment in his hand and tossed it toward the Creation Light Screen.
*Poof!*
Under the protection of Creation Power, the Divine Treasure fragment easily penetrated the Creation Light Screen.
Not only that, but it also passed through the screen completely. In the next instant, Xiao Mu heard a soft *plop*, presumably the sound of the fragment falling to the ground.
Still, Xiao Mu remained cautious and alert, staring at the Creation Light Screen, fearful of any potential counterattack from the screen.
Yet fortunately, this time, the Creation Light Screen was remarkably calm, as if nothing had happened, and it did not retaliate against Xiao Mu.
"Thank goodness!"
Xiao Mu let out a long breath of relief.
It seemed the Creation Power he wielded was effective after all, at least providing protective effects when interacting with the Creation Light Screen, preventing interior objects from being attacked.
*Crack!*
Now reassured, Xiao Mu swung the Creation Axe again, releasing a cluster of Creation Power upon himself.
A flash of white light appeared, and his body was promptly covered by a faint layer of Creation White Light—a very thin layer.
By this point, the Creation Power remaining in the Creation Axe was truly depleted, nearly bottoming out, with only a faint trace of white light visible.
Cautious as ever, Xiao Mu did not completely exhaust the Creation Power within the axe, deliberately retaining a small portion to prevent the axe from vanishing entirely.
This axe, in Xiao Mu's understanding, could actually be considered a container for Creation Power—a vessel meant to store it.
Such a container was not something that ordinary people could forge. Xiao Mu speculated that it was likely crafted by the Creation Heavenly King himself.
Stowing away the Creation Axe, Xiao Mu wasted no time and charged toward the Creation Light Screen.
The Creation Power surrounding him was minimal and would be consumed in an instant, leaving him no choice but to seize the moment.
*Swish!*
Xiao Mu felt a wave of warmth on his body, like sunlight softly bathing him. It was the Creation Power from the Creation Light Screen interacting with his physique.
Nevertheless, Xiao Mu dared not underestimate this influence nor indulge in exploring its effects, instead quickening his pace and rushing forward.
*Thud! Thud! Thud!*
Wary of summoning Five Elements Energy through Escape Art and potentially provoking an attack from the Creation Power, Xiao Mu refrained from using any extraordinary techniques, opting instead to sprint with his legs.
Even so, his speed remained fast, enough to traverse the Creation Light Screen within just three to four seconds.
Xiao Mu's figure emerged from the other side of the Creation Light Screen.
*Woo woo! Boom! Swish!*
The sound of strange noises reached his ears, and Xiao Mu steadied himself, immediately surveying the environment behind the Creation Light Screen.
The first thing that caught his eye was the thick, swirling clouds of Creation Qi floating in the air, rising like vapor and drifting endlessly upward.
Upon reaching the ceiling of the space, the Creation Qi instantly transformed into beams of Creation Light.
The Creation Light Screen seemed to possess a kind of suction force, and Xiao Mu speculated that within the light screen itself might lie one or more Creation Beads.
The existence of these Creation Beads was likely the mechanism continuously absorbing Creation Power and channeling it toward the light screen.
His gaze then dropped, following the steaming paths of Creation Qi until it settled some hundred meters ahead.
At this moment, Xiao Mu froze.
The Creation Pool!
It was the Creation Pool!
A pool filled to the brim with Creation Liquid!
Xiao Mu's expression shifted rapidly, first stunned, then overcome with ecstatic joy.
Before him—there truly was a Creation Pool.
Though modest in size—it was a square pool measuring roughly one meter in both length and width—
this relatively small pool was completely saturated with Creation Power.
The surface of the pool was calm, with all Creation Power fully liquefied.
Even in liquid form, the Creation Power continuously evaporated, rising into the air to be harvested above.
"Haha! Hahaha!"
Unable to hold back, Xiao Mu burst into laughter.
The Creation Pool and its Creation Liquid represented the purest form of Creation Power, perfectly absorbable by the Creation Axe.
Striding forward with large steps toward the pool, Xiao Mu abruptly stopped, his vigilance urging him to examine the surroundings of the Creation Pool.
Moments later, Xiao Mu chuckled at himself.
He had been too cautious; it seemed there were no threats near the pool.
Resuming his stride, Xiao Mu approached the Creation Pool.
Taking out the Creation Axe, he immersed it into the pool.
*Gululu!*
Like a parched traveler finding a spring, the Creation Axe began voraciously absorbing the liquid.
The surface of the pool visibly receded, the Creation Liquid rapidly being consumed by the axe.
The Creation Axe, once nearly transparent and devoid of power, regained its vivid white hue as it absorbed the liquid.
The liquid level in the pool dropped swiftly, soon reaching half its initial height.
*Gululu! Woo woo!*
Strange noises echoed from within the Creation Axe as its absorption abruptly ceased.
"What's going on? Why isn't it absorbing anymore?"
Xiao Mu puzzledly withdrew the Creation Axe, inspecting it critically.
His eyes grew more contemplative as he alternated his gaze between the pool and the axe.
Could it be?
The absorption process was tied to the Creation Power concentrations within them?
Initially, the Creation Pool had a higher concentration of Creation Power than the axe's interior, allowing the liquid to flow into the axe for absorption.
Now that the axe had absorbed a significant amount, reaching a balance in concentration with the pool, further absorption became impossible?
Could this be the case? Likely so?
Unsure of his assumptions, Xiao Mu hesitated to confirm them completely.
After thinking it over, he dipped the Creation Axe back into the pool for a second attempt.
The axe ceased to absorb the liquid entirely, despite Xiao Mu waiting patiently for a long time.
"Time to test my hypothesis!"
Xiao Mu swung the axe through the air, experimenting with his idea by unleashing a burst of Creation Power.
Refusing to let it go to waste, he directed the power toward himself.
*Crack!*
Creation's White Light briefly coated Xiao Mu's body surface.
Then, gripping the Creation Axe once more, Xiao Mu submerged it back into the Creation Pool.
*Gululu!*
The axe resumed absorbing power from the pool.
This time, however, the process was brief, ceasing abruptly once more after a short duration.
Indeed, my theory is correct—the Creation Axe's capacity to absorb Creation Liquid from the pool depends upon the concentration balance between the two.
Once their concentrations reach equilibrium, absorption halts.
"Luckily, the Creation Power within the axe has already recovered to half capacity."
Examining his Creation Axe, Xiao Mu couldn't hide the hint of joy spreading across his face.
At this moment, the power within the axe had been restored to roughly half its full potential, more than enough for prolonged use.
"This is just the first Creation Pool behind the true first Creation Bead. Altogether, there are four true Creation Beads, meaning three more pools remain."
"Once I reach the other three Creation Pools, my Creation Axe should be fully replenished."
