The red enchanted puppet was originally just an enchanted puppet and had no life, so it was not considered a living creature.

The essence pool could help all living beings enhance their essence, but it was restricted to living beings. Therefore, the red enchanted puppet could not naturally enter the essence pool to enhance its essence.

However, after the previous mutation, the red enchanted puppet was no longer an ordinary enchanted puppet. It seemed to have developed a form of life of its own.

Regarding this matter, Liu Yan was unable to confirm.

Whether the red enchanted puppet could be considered a life form or not was uncertain. It seemed to possess certain thoughts but wasn't a complete life form.

But if it couldn't be classified as a life form, it had developed its thoughts beyond its instinct for battle.

Liu Yan couldn't determine if the essence pool would be beneficial for the red enchanted puppet. Since he couldn't be sure, he decided to give it a try.

Liu Yan directly took out the red enchanted puppet from his storage ring.

At this moment, the red enchanted puppet still only had a combat strength of 13 stars, which was already falling behind.

This was primarily due to the intensity of their previous battles. They had faced opponents that greatly exceeded their level, and Liu Yan hadn't had many opportunities to let the red enchanted puppet participate in battles. Consequently, the red enchanted puppet's current strength was slightly lacking.

Before the battle with the Lighthouse Territory, the red enchanted puppet's combat strength had been on par with the second-strongest member of Team Origin, Allen Smith, and had even surpassed him for a time.

However, after the battle with the Lighthouse Territory, the red enchanted puppet's strength had fallen significantly behind Allen Smith, and it was now comparable to the ordinary experts of Team Origin.

The main reason for this decline was the lack of opportunities for the red enchanted puppet to participate in battles and improve its strength.

Now, Liu Yan wanted to test whether the essence pool would have any effect on the red enchanted puppet.

In theory, the essence pool could enhance the essence of all living beings, and although the red enchanted puppet was unique, it now seemed to possess its thoughts and a form of life. Therefore, the essence pool should theoretically be able to enhance the red enchanted puppet's essence.

However, the red enchanted puppet didn't possess any essence or talent!

In such a situation, Liu Yan couldn't be certain about the outcome of having the red enchanted puppet enter the essence pool.Since he couldn't ascertain the result, Liu Yan decided to give it a direct try.

After releasing the red enchanted puppet, Liu Yan instructed it to enter the essence pool and perceive if any changes occurred. If there were changes, it should remain inside. if not, it should exit the essence pool.

The red enchanted puppet, standing there in a daze, responded with a slight nod in a surprisingly human-like manner. It then walked into the essence pool.

Liu Yan sensed that once the red enchanted puppet entered the essence pool, the special vapor within the essence pool enveloped the red enchanted puppet and began to penetrate it.

And wasn't such a scene an effective one?

Previously, when Liu Yan entered the essence pool, it was the same. The special water vapor entered his body and transformed his essence.

Seeing the same thing happening with the red enchanted puppet, Liu Yan immediately became certain that the essence pool was effective for the red enchanted puppet as well.

Additionally, Liu Yan observed that the amount of special vapor approaching and entering the red enchanted puppet seemed to be much more than for the other territory war beasts and Liu Yan's pets.

Could it be that the essence pool favored the red enchanted puppet and intended to enhance its essence further? Liu Yan couldn't help but entertain this thought.

Liu Yan didn't know the specific reason, so he patiently waited in place.

This wait extended from afternoon to dusk.

Human Awakened typically requires about three hours in the essence pool to complete their essence enhancement.

This applied not only to Liu Yan but also to all the members of Team Origin's seven squads.I think you should take a look at

However, it appeared that this was not the case for these fierce beasts and mystic monsters.

Five hours had passed by now.

Yet, neither of the two mystic monsters, the two fierce beasts, nor the red special enchanted puppet had finished.

Liu Yan waited for a while until the Magma Giant King finally completed the enhancement and exited the essence pool.

Seeing this, Liu Yan glanced at the Magma Demon King, but it still didn't seem like it was nearing completion.It appeared that even though both were mystic monsters, the time required to enhance their essence differed.

While the Magma Giant King's physical appearance remained the same, Liu Yan, who had mastered the SS-grade Fire Secret Art, could sense that the layer of fire attributes elemental power surrounding the Magma Giant King's body was much denser than before.

Liu Yan felt puzzled. Weren't they supposed to enhance their essence? Why did it seem like the Magma Giant King's strength had suddenly increased?

Driven by curiosity, Liu Yan quickly checked the Magma Giant King's attributes panel.

[Magma Giant King]

[Potential: S-grade]

[Level: 132]

[Combat Strength: 14 Stars]

...

When Liu Yan observed the attribute panel of the Magma Giant King, his expression took on a rather peculiar look. Firstly, the essence pool was expected to boost the potential of a creature and not directly augment its strength.

However, the Magma Giant King defied this norm. Its combat strength had surged from 13 Stars to an impressive 14 Stars.

Not only did its combat strength increase significantly, but it also experienced a one-star boost in combat strength in one go!

Furthermore, the amount of essence that the Magma Giant King had acquired seemed somewhat excessive.

Previously, after Liu Yan and the Awakened members of Team Origin entered the essence pool, although they managed to enhance their essence substantially, it wasn't to the extent of directly raising their potential by a whole grade.

Yet, the Magma Giant King had indeed elevated its potential by a full grade, moving from an A-grade potential to an impressive S-grade potential!

Liu Yan's expression became even more peculiar. Could it be that the essence pool showed partiality towards spiritual monsters like the Magma Giant King over humans? It appeared less generous towards humans but exceedingly benevolent towards these mystical creatures.

Liu Yan couldn't fathom this, but he considered it a positive development.

At this moment, the Magma Giant King jubilantly swung its massive fiery arms.

Anyone would be ecstatic to experience an instant increase in potential by one grade and a one-star boost in combat strength.

Liu Yan instructed the Magma Giant King to return to its dwelling and avoid disturbing the other mystical monsters and fierce beasts in their potential enhancement.

After the departure of the Magma Giant King, Liu Yan once again turned his attention to the essence pool.

At this point, Liu Yan couldn't help but anticipate what lay ahead. Since the essence pool had provided such a substantial improvement to the Magma Giant King, could it also offer even greater enhancements to other mystical monsters and fierce beasts?

Previously, Liu Yan had assumed that the ratio of the increase in origin energy within the essence pool was uniform for all living beings. Now, it seemed that this was only the case for humans, not for mystical monsters and fierce beasts.

Furthermore, Liu Yan also noted that human Awakened had completed their essence enhancement within three hours of entering the essence pool, while the Magma Giant King had spent over five hours for the same purpose.
