"The Blood Demon Emperor's soul really is powerful. Now that his soul is dissipating in my sea of consciousness, I should be able to absorb it and strengthen my soul," Jian Chen thought. Without any hesitation, Jianchen immediately dismissed his thoughts and began to devour the Blood Demon Emperor's soul.
Jianchen was currently seated on the ninth floor. His eyes were closed, so no one knew what was going on.
Nubis paced back and forth anxiously beside Jianchen. Although he already knew that the Blood Demon Emperor's soul had entered Jianchen's head, there was nothing he could do about the current situation. All he could do was worry.
"Jianchen, I really can't help you right now. You have to be fine. You have to make it through." Nubis prayed. He had been lured out of the Cross Mountains by Jianchen using the corpses of his kind in exchange for ten years of time. However, after spending so many years together, Nubis and Jianchen's relationship had changed drastically. Their relationship was no longer one of mutual benefit. Instead, they were best friends.
As a result, Nubis was extremely worried about Jianchen's current situation.
At this moment, the pale-faced Tesnik slowly stood up from the ground. When the Blood Demon Emperor's primordial spirit entered his brain, it had already devoured a small portion of his primordial spirit. Tesnik's primordial spirit was severely injured, and he had only just recovered.
Tisnick stared at Jianchen coldly as undisguised killing intent filled his eyes. He coldly said, "Emperor of the Eight Wastelands, I never thought that you would still be alive. I never thought that the divine hall of the Eight Wastelands would actually be part of your scheme. Your goal was to lure us in from outside so you could choose a talented body to possess." Tisnick still did not know about the Blood Demon Emperor. He still treated the Blood Demon Emperor, who wanted to devour his soul, as the emperor of the Eight Wastelands.
"Emperor of the Eight Wastelands, you must have devoured the soul of the ruler of the Turtle clan. If you want to completely control the ruler's body, you'll need some time. This is the perfect time to kill you," Tisnick's face sank as he drew his blades.
Nubis immediately stood in front of Jianchen when he saw how Tisnick wanted to attack Jianchen. He coldly said, "With the great Nubis here, don't even think about harming Jianchen."
"Piss off. You're not my opponent. If I want to kill you, it'll be as easy as crushing an ant," Tisnick's eyes were filled with disdain. He did not treat Nubis with any importance at all.
How could the prideful Nubis endure Tisnick's provocation? A tremendous presence immediately radiated from his body as his eyes became extremely sharp at that moment. He did not hide his killing intent at all.
"Tisnick, anyone who dares to speak to the great Nubis like that will never have a good ending. In the eyes of the great Nubis, killing you is a piece of cake. If it were not for the great energy that someone left in your body, the great Nubis really would not treat you with any importance at all," Nubis said with a heavy voice.
"If it were any other time and place, I would definitely have a true battle with you and see just how great your abilities are. Unfortunately, I can't do that now. I need to eliminate the ruler of the Turtle clan, or I might not be able to leave once the emperor of the Eight Wastelands completely takes control of his body. Nubis, I originally planned on using this emperor's power to accept the legacy of the Eight Wastelands, but I have to use it now. Let me use this sliver of emperor's power to completely end the lives of you and the ruler of the Turtle clan. " An extremely terrifying power radiated from Tisnick's body. A strand of extremely pure energy slowly drifted out from his body before condensing at the tip of his finger in the end.
This was emperor's power. It was the power that a Holy Emperor had left in his body, and it was also Tisnick's greatest trump card.
The sliver of emperor's power was enough to heavily injure a Ninth Heavenly Layer Holy Emperor.
Nubis's face became ugly. He could sense the power of the emperor's power. If he faced it, he would definitely die.
Tisnick stared at the emperor's power at the tip of his finger and said, "To be able to die to this sliver of emperor's power is a supreme honor for you. Nubis, emperor of the Eight Wastelands, allow me, Tisnick, to completely end your lives right now." Killing intent exploded in Tisnick's eyes as he was about to unleash the emperor's power at the tip of his finger.
However, at this moment, a huge stone slab fell from the ceiling and landed on the ground with a heavy thud.
This sudden change caused Tesniak's Emperor's Might to involuntarily slow down, and he subconsciously looked up.
On the ceiling of the palace, there was a big hole covered by a stone slab. A gentle light came out of the hole, but it was impossible to see what was inside.
"T- this is the core of the Eight Wastelands Divine Hall. It's the core that controls the Eight Wastelands Divine Hall." Tesniak could not help but cry out in surprise. His face was filled with joy, and without any hesitation, he withdrew the Emperor's Force from his fingertip and shot it into the glowing green hole.
As soon as Tisnick disappeared into the hole, the green light from the hole rapidly vanished as well. When the green light completely dissipated, the hole had disappeared, and the ceiling of the ninth floor of the palace returned to its original undamaged state. Only a huge stone door was left lying on the ground.
"I never thought that would actually be the core that controls the Eight Wastelands Divine Hall," Nubis stared at the ceiling regretfully as his eyes shone with scorching light. It was a pity that Tisnick possessed the emperor's power. It was powerful enough to destroy the divine hall, so he did not dare to compete with him.
With Tisnick's disappearance, the ninth floor returned to peace. Only Jianchen and Nubis remained.
Jianchen was still absorbing the remaining power of the Blood Demon Emperor's soul as hard as he could right now. All of his attention was focused on his consciousness, so he had no idea what was happening in the outside world. He also had no idea that Tisnick had entered the core of the divine hall and would be able to control the divine hall soon. He would be able to use the divine hall's power as he wished.
Jianchen could not sense the flow of time in his sea of consciousness. The only thing he could sense was that his soul was rapidly strengthening while the remaining power of the Blood Demon Emperor's soul was rapidly weakening.
Devouring a person's soul would be an extremely strange matter on the Tian Yuan Continent because this was not the case in this world.
It was basically impossible for something like this to happen in this world. The reason why the Blood Demon Emperor could devour the souls of Gu Le and the Eight Wastelands was because he had Amagami's assistance.
The reason why Jianchen could devour the Blood Demon Emperor's soul was because the Blood Demon Emperor's soul had entered Jianchen's sea of consciousness of its own accord. With a sliver of the Blood Demon Emperor's soul, the collapsed soul should have vanished from the world, but due to the difference in location and environment, it remained in Jianchen's sea of consciousness. As a result, Jianchen was able to successfully absorb the Blood Demon Emperor's soul.
Jianchen definitely would not have been able to do something like this in the outside world.
The Blood Demon Emperor's soul contained a few fragments of memories and some comprehension of the mysteries of the world. When Jianchen absorbed the Blood Demon Emperor's soul, he possessed the fragments of memories and mysteries of the world as well, allowing his comprehension of the mysteries to skyrocket.
Even though the mysteries of the world were only fragments and not complete, they still came from the Blood Demon Emperor. Jianchen benefited greatly from just a few fragments. His comprehension of the mysteries of the world that had remained at the First Heavenly Layer of Saint Ruler had actually skyrocketed to the Seventh Heavenly Layer in such a short amount of time, catching up to the second layer of the Chaotic Body.
Time passed silently. After who knew how long, Jianchen finally absorbed all of the Blood Demon Emperor's soul, allowing Jianchen's soul to rapidly grow as well.
The only thing he felt regretful about was that he did not obtain any memories of Gu Le or the Eight Wastelands from the Blood Demon Emperor's soul. It seemed like the Blood Demon Emperor did not obtain any memories of Gu Le and the Eight Wastelands when he devoured them.
Jianchen's sea of consciousness had calmed down long ago. Only the demonic red Amagami hovered there.
Jianchen focused his attention on the Amagami. The Amagami clearly came from the same era as the sword spirits. Jianchen was filled with curiosity about the details of the bead.
"Ziying, Qing Suo, just what is this Amagami?" Jianchen asked the sword spirits. Right now, he could only obtain some information about the bead from the sword spirits. This was because even the Blood Demon Emperor did not know the true origin of the bead. He only knew that the bead was called Amagami and that it was a very special and mystical item.
The sword spirits seemed to hesitate for a while in response to Jianchen's question before slowly answering, "Master, the Amagami is the famous treasure of the Celestial Demon Emperor. It was refined using the essence blood of the Celestial Demon Emperor. It is a powerful demonic artifact."
"Who is the Celestial Demon Emperor? Is he very powerful? Why did his treasure end up here? "Jianchen asked.
"The Celestial Demon Emperor was the first Demon Emperor of the Demon World. Not only was she the number one demoness of the Demon World, she was also extremely powerful. She had been at the peak of the Demon Emperor realm for many years. She was only a step away from becoming a Demon Emperor. The Celestial Demon Emperor created the Celestial Demon Emperor's Art of the Celestial Demon Emperor was even more powerful. At that time, it was considered a high level cultivation method in the Demon World. The God-Devouring Force that was cultivated from the Celestial Demon Emperor's Art of the Celestial Demon Emperor was so terrifying that anyone who heard of it would die upon contact.
"The Soul-devouring Force is equivalent to the Massacre Force and Baleful Yin Force that master understands. These two forces are both evolved from the Soul-devouring Force. However, compared to the Soul-devouring Force, they are far, far too weak."
