The special force will refine their Celestial Bodies inside.

A black plain formed beneath him. The ground was layered with formation arrays so densely that the field looked like a dark mirror etched with constellations.
Lucien did not let the Abyssal Pool descend directly.
A thin stream of Abyssal Pool essence flowed down, enough for the first experiment.
