Chapter 444: Devouring Demon Soul
Ye Tianling further condensed the Primordial Rune, deriving its wondrous changes. He continuously integrated the method for breaking the Ancient Soul Extinction Forbidden technique into his understanding of the Heaven and Earth Laws, all while testing his theories and breaking the seals on Mu Yuxi.
After another hundred or so breaths, all the shackles of the Soul Ban on Mu Yuxi were completely undone.
Ye Tianling also breathed a sigh of relief.
"Alright, there’s only one shackle left, and then you’ll be completely free. This last one is the core of the ban, so I’ll need my full concentration to undo it. Keep an eye out for any danger, and watch to see if the Cultivator who placed this ban on you returns."
Ye Tianling advised.
Mu Yuxi nodded and replied meekly, "Okay, I will."
Ye Tianling resumed breaking the ban on Mu Yuxi. The process continued without any unusual developments, and no danger appeared.
From start to finish, Ye Tianling barely touched Mu Yuxi’s body, avoiding any kind of physical transgression.
"HUFF— It’s finally undone. The one who placed this ban has truly incredible control over the soul. This person’s strength must be formidable."
Having expended a great deal of Soul Power to undo Mu Yuxi’s shackles, Ye Tianling couldn’t help but sigh in admiration.
"Divine Child Ye Tianling, thank you so much. This is a kindness I, Mu Yuxi, will never forget for as long as I live."
Mu Yuxi said with immense gratitude, bowing deeply as she spoke.
"There’s no need. We’re just strangers who met by chance, so let’s part ways here. As I said, I only saved you because you remind me of my sister—"
Before Ye Tianling could finish his sentence, a sudden, extreme chill washed over him, freezing him to the core.
It was a cold that seemed to freeze him to the bone in an instant.
Ye Tianling’s gaze snapped to Mu Yuxi, his eyes blazing with fury. "Mu Yuxi, you’re repaying my kindness with treachery?!"
As he spoke, Ye Tianling executed his Kunpeng Carefree Travel Body Technique, dodging several times in quick succession.
However, Mu Yuxi was using a Soul-locking technique powered by her Demon Heart, so even as Ye Tianling dodged, he was utterly unable to escape her attack.
"I’ve been preparing this killing blow for a full half an hour. If I let you escape, wouldn’t that make me look incompetent? Xi Junchang, die!"
As Mu Yuxi spoke, the light-green short sword in her hand shot out at an extreme speed, piercing the spot between Ye Tianling’s eyebrows almost instantly.
This sword possessed terrifying Power of Demon Heart and was imbued with the powerful nature of a Demon Soul!
As a result, when the sword struck, Ye Tianling’s body not only failed to unleash any Power of Defense, but seemed to welcome the attack instead.
SHLICK—
The sword pierced straight through the spot between Ye Tianling’s eyebrows. In a single blow, the strike seemed to have run through both the Space-Time Soul-locking Tower and the Blood Moon Secret Realm housed within.
Ye Tianling felt as if his very soul had been impaled. The pain in that moment was excruciating.
"ROAR—"
Ye Tianling roared. The Dragon Blood on the twenty-seventh level of his Space-Time Soul-locking Tower erupted, instantly activating his Samadhi True Fire and Karmic Fire.
These flames immediately enveloped the light-green short sword.
TSSSSSS—
The short sword froze, completely stuck. Mu Yuxi’s heart leaped in alarm; she knew something was wrong.
Ye Tianling’s eyes suddenly turned blood-red. The sword had pierced his Blood Moon Secret Realm and Space-Time Soul-locking Tower, causing all the Dragon Blood from the twenty-seventh level to pour into the Blood-Colored Crescent Secret Realm.
BOOM—
The entire Blood Moon Secret Realm seemed to be instantly set ablaze.
The once blood-colored region was now a sea of scarlet fire, a vast, blood-red inferno.
It was as if the Blood Moon Secret Realm had been fully activated.
As the Dragon Blood poured in, Ye Tianling and the Blood Moon Secret Realm formed a bond of a completely new nature!
At the same time, inside Ye Tianling’s Space-Time Soul-locking Tower, the barrier to the twenty-eighth-level Dragon Blood Region began to crack on its own.
In that moment, an indescribable frenzy surged within Ye Tianling.
TSSSSSS—
The light-green short sword contained Demon Soul Power.
The moment she found she could not retrieve her sword, Mu Yuxi gritted her teeth, activated her Demon Soul, and launched it toward Ye Tianling in an attempt at Possession.
A Demon Soul invasion!
Mu Yuxi intended to forcibly suppress ’Xi Junchang’ and take revenge for how he had killed and humiliated her!
Because even now, Mu Yuxi still believed the person before her was Xi Junchang.
Ye Tianling’s hand shot out and gripped the short sword. He instantly coated it in Dragon Blood and offered it as a Blood Sacrifice to his Xuanyuan Celestial Evil Sword!
"PFFT—"
In that instant, Mu Yuxi suffered a direct backlash. She let out a wretched cry as blood streamed from her eyes, ears, nose, and mouth.
She sensed mortal danger and immediately burned all her Demon Blood to empower her Demon Soul.
The Demon Soul instantly shot deep into the spot between Ye Tianling’s eyebrows, seeking to suppress his Soul.
"A Demon Soul! I’ve never feared a Demon Soul! Excellent. The one time I, Ye Tianling, decide to be benevolent, I’m met with such vile treachery!"
Ye Tianling bit out each word, his eyes as red as blood.
In that instant, he activated his Nine-Orifice Exquisite Demon Heart.
BOOM—
The blood in his body ignited once more. At that moment, Mu Yuxi froze, dumbfounded. As her Demon Soul invaded his, it stopped dead for a fraction of a second.
’Xi Junchang... actually has a Nine-Orifice Exquisite Demon Heart?’
’That’s a peerless Demon God Talent!’
’How is that possible?!’
’It’s absolutely impossible!’
’Xi Junchang is a Soul Master from the Soul Race! How could he possibly have the Nine-Orifice Exquisite Demon Heart Talent of a Demon God?’
Mu Yuxi had a sinking feeling she had made a terrible mistake.
But it was too late.
TSSSSSS—
With a single pulse, the Nine-Orifice Exquisite Demon Heart generated a peerless Celestial Demon Power.
WHOOSH—
SHOO—
Mu Yuxi’s Origin Demon Soul was completely absorbed by Ye Tianling’s Nine-Orifice Exquisite Demon Heart, becoming just another Demon Soul within it.
TSSSSSS—
In the blink of an eye, the Demon Soul was violently and savagely devoured and refined by Ye Tianling!
A forceful Refinement, powered by the Nine-Orifice Exquisite Demon Heart!
This brutal and vicious act caused Mu Yuxi’s cultivation to plummet by three entire Realms, dropping her instantly from the Sword Void Three Transformation Almost Perfection Realm to the Early Stage of the Sword Void First Transformation!
Even then, her new Realm was unstable.
"AHHH—"
Mu Yuxi shrieked in agony. Her body convulsed violently as she spewed a massive mouthful of blood. It was a ghastly sight.
At that moment, Ye Tianling’s eyes had completely transformed into the Eyes of Destruction.
His Destruction Sword Body reactivated, and his Demon Heart Sword Body merged perfectly with it.
HUUFF—
In that instant, blood-colored fur sprouted all over Ye Tianling’s body. He had once again transformed into that monstrous Blood-Colored Demon Ape.
Mu Yuxi’s Demon Soul had caused Ye Tianling’s Nine-Orifice Exquisite Demon Heart to evolve. But by forcibly devouring and refining it, Ye Tianling seemed to have fully succumbed to the state of Entering Demon, losing his sanity once again.
