Luo Chen examines the Jiao Emperor True Flame, realizing it contains too much consciousness from past Jiaoren clan members, hindering its full power. He uses his Soul Absorption Technique, which the Demon Monk Kongchan mistakes for the high-level Soul Hooking technique, to draw out the flame's essence. Kongchan provides Luo Chen with a copy of the Soul Hooking cultivation technique.

With a mere twitch of Luo Chen’s fingertip, azure flames erupted, conjuring one illusory figure after another. Each projection was flawlessly formed, radiating a captivating allure – some stood tall and dashing, others slender and graceful, their faces a blurred yet exquisite mask from a bygone era. These figures represented the pinnacle warriors of the Jiaoren Clan from history! Kong Chan stood by, his eyes wide with astonishment and disbelief. He marveled at how Luo Chen had just obtained the 'Soul Hooking' cultivation technique and had already mastered it. He pondered the depth of Luo Chen's attainment in the realm of the Divine Soul. As Luo Chen continued his incantation, a multitude of lingering stray thoughts were drawn out from the Jiao Huang True Flame. Gradually, the initial azure flames deepened, achieving an unparalleled purity. Within them, a faint phantom of a small fish seemed to twist and swim. "Emerge!" Luo Chen commanded in a low tone, his Primordial Spirit converging as one. An imposing pressure, akin to heavenly might, permeated the area, accompanied by surges of power beyond Divine Consciousness. This was none other than Divine Perception! Under the surge of Luo Chen’s divine perception, the small fish was compelled to condense into a tangible form. In the next instant, the fish leaped from the flames, the ripples of fire spreading like water. Little White exclaimed with joy, "Congratulations, Master, on obtaining another formidable flame!" Luo Chen simply shook his head with a smile, "For the moment, I have merely purged its impurities and forced its condensation into a Fire Spirit. Its rank remains at the Fourth Order, far from being considered powerful." He then inhaled, drawing the blue small fish into his mouth, and it finally entered the Purple Mansion. Upon arrival, the blue small fish immediately sensed the presence of two auras far surpassing its own. One aura felt akin to a towering tree with spreading branches. The other resembled a soaring bird, perpetually circling. Daring not to disturb these two 'seniors,' it obediently settled within the Purple Mansion. It began expanding layers of fiery waves, forming a blue Sea of Fire, and vanished into its depths. The Withering and Flourishing Fire Spirit paid it no mind. However, the Nirvana Fire Spirit appeared curious, its sharp beak gently tapping as it circled above the Sea of Fire. But with a mere glance from Luo Chen, the Nirvana Fire Spirit was compelled to retreat, no longer daring to focus on the blue small fish. Finally breathing a sigh of relief, the blue small fish felt an unexpected warmth towards the owner of that imposing gaze. Back on the Glacier Wilderness. Luo Chen examined the oil lamp in his hand before presenting it to Little White. "Take this; it is considered a powerful True Device. Although I have claimed the Jiao Huang True Flame, the remaining Merfolk Oil within can still activate the Jiao Huang True Flame multiple times." Little White joyfully accepted it, "Thank you, Master, for this treasure!" The inheritance from Jiao Emperor Liu Jun encompassed more than just an oil lamp and a flame; it also included a storage bag. However, Luo Chen felt no urgency to inventory his gains. To him at this juncture, the legacy of a Nascent Soul Demon Cultivator held little significance. Luo Chen’s true interest lay not in the storage bag, but in the 'Spiritual Pet' he had easily subdued moments prior. "Demon Monk Kongchan, it is rumored that your true form is a Chanting Monk. Reveal yourself and let me see!" Faced with Luo Chen's rather casual, even dismissive, command, Demon Monk Kongchan displayed no outward displeasure. The moment Luo Chen’s divine perception erupted, Kongchan comprehended the source of Luo Chen's overwhelming power—a strength so immense that resistance was rendered utterly futile. This was an entity that had achieved premature condensation of a Primordial Spirit! Furthermore, he had grasped the Law’s True Intent! Combined with the previous strike that obliterated Tai Sui with Qingyang’s Big Handprint, and his effortless absorption of Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi along the way, Kong Chan found himself swallowing hard. Primordial Spirit, Law’s True Intent, and the manipulation of Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi—these were all hallmarks of a Divine Transformation Great Power. Achieving any one of these would mark an individual as an unparalleled prodigy. To possess all three, how could this young man before him be distinguished from a true Divine Transformation Great Power? Boom! A colossal entity materialized upon the Glacier Wilderness. Luo Chen looked up, beholding a bizarre creature resembling a hybrid of an octopus and a jellyfish. It possessed a large, smooth, shining bald head, human-like facial features, and black spots, akin to 戒疤, scattered across its body. Its eighteen tentacles were riddled with fissures. "Master, this is my true form." As the bald head spoke, the fissures on the tentacles opened simultaneously, emitting a unified voice. Nineteen mouths speaking in unison produced an incessant, irritating hum, reminiscent of a nagging monk ceaselessly chanting scriptures. "So, this is the origin of the name, Chanting Monk!"

A chuckle escaped Luo Chen’s lips as he made a dismissive gesture with his hand.

"It would be best if you reverted to your human form; your true appearance is rather unsightly."

Amidst the surge of Demon Qi, the colossal form of the Chanting Monk dissolved, coalescing into Kong Chan’s gaunt figure. He stood before Luo Chen with deep deference, no trace of the powerful Great Demon Emperor who once held dominion over the North Sea remaining. Luo Chen advanced, his eyes alight with a golden luminescence, heading in a particular direction within the Yuan Mo Sect. As he walked, he casually inquired about matters pertaining to the Demon Clan, specifically seeking details regarding the ancient downfall of the Yuan Mo Sect. "That conflict involved a combined effort of Great Sage Beili and Sea Emperor Whale Ancestor against Soul Refining Elder. They managed to shatter his physical form, and the Sea Emperor Whale Ancestor dispersed his Primordial Spirit. Before his demise, the Soul Refining Elder scattered his Primordial Spirit, erecting a grand formation that imprisoned us within Ye Mo Sky for countless centuries." "As for Elder Yuan Mo of the Yuan Mo Sect, the engagement did not occur on our territory, so I’m uncertain who was his adversary." "What I do recall is that from that particular battlefield, a flicker of golden flame escaped, sweeping away tens of thousands of powerful beings from both the Human and Demon Clans." Luo Chen halted his stride momentarily. "Golden flame?" Kongchan affirmed with a nod. Then, as if a recollection surfaced, a look of surprised uncertainty dawned in his eyes. He remembered that the method Luo Chen employed to vanquish the Corpse Giant in the Blood Lake seemed to involve a sort of golden flame. Could it be… Luo Chen’s gaze shifted; certain long-held suspicions were finally validated in this very moment.
