Jiang Wang moved like lightning, wielding his sword. Jiang Yan, with the dark candle as his body and green smoke in his hand, also danced with his sword.
One sword was like frost and snow, the other like a yellow candle.
One sword was the manifestation of the sword spirit, the other formed from the light of treasure.
One sword was the fall of a famed scholar, the other was the fall of a famed scholar.
Two similar sword forms of the Human Dao collided.
The two swords crossed.
Sword edge against sword edge, sword horizontal against sword horizontal.
The long sword turned, and a sword that was not of its own volition appeared.
The sword forms turned again, and like the rising sun, the two blazing sword lights clashed, unleashing the sword of youth and frivolity.
This sword passed by. Jiang Wang turned around, and the dark candle turned upside down.
The sun rose, and the sun set.
The sword turned with the momentum of an old general past his prime, and its momentum never returned.
The two suns clashed!
The tip of the sword pressed against the tip of the sword, neither of them giving way.
Their sword forms, their choice of timing, and even the support they received from Heaven Connecting Palace were all the same!
Jiang Yan had completely grasped all of Jiang Wang's sword forms, and his understanding was no less than his own.
Just how terrifying was this?
The Human Dao sword forms were the strongest sword forms Jiang Wang had comprehended up to this point, and they truly belonged to him, and were the part of him that stood out the most.
But now, they had completely reappeared on Jiang Yan's body.
If this battle ended in defeat, would anyone discover that Jiang Wang was no longer Jiang Wang?
What else could prove his existence?
This sort of reappearance was far more terrifying than a stronger technique. Perhaps this had been Jiang Yan's goal all along.
"Jiang Wang, I am you. I understand everything about you, and I know everything you know, and I am even stronger than you. You don't have any chance of winning, so why bother putting up a pointless resistance? "
Jiang Yan's voice came from the dark candle, attempting to break through Jiang Wang's psychological defenses. "Give your body to me … … no, just give it to your better self. Let us become a better me together. You will see that I will do much better. Du Ruhui, Zhuang Gaoxian, Zhang Linchuan, they are nothing. They are not worth your suffering for so long. I will definitely kill them for you! "
The two swords collided and separated.
As he spoke, Jiang Wang floated past the Soul Concealment Snake and the Black-eyed Star Python that were fighting.
Hearing these words, he raised his eyebrows and looked at the Nether Candle with a cold gaze.
"My tenant, are you really … me?"
He suddenly pulled back his sword and slashed at himself!
A large chunk of the flesh and blood manifested from his soul was cut off. That meant that Jiang Wang's Soul Source had been severed.
This kind of pain was beyond anyone's imagination.
Even someone as tough as Jiang Wang couldn't help but clench his teeth and groan in pain.
His fleshly body, which was still in the underwater devil cave, suddenly went limp and fell to the ground, rolling continuously!
This sword strike was a heart-wrenching pain.
It spread from the Divine Soul to the physical body. It was simply unbearable.
And within Tongtian Palace.
The piece of flesh materialized from the God Soul fell down. It fell …
From the very beginning, the Black-eyed Starry Python, which had been possessed by the Heart Devil, had been suppressed by the Soul Concealment Snake. Perhaps restraining Jiang Wang's Divine Soul power was also what Jiang Yan wanted.
But at this moment, the Soul Concealment Snake consciously separated and scattered, giving up on attacking the Black-eyed Starry Python. And this piece of flesh materialized from the Soul Concealment Snake fell into the Black-eyed Starry Python's huge mouth!
"Damn it!"
Nether Candle, who was rushing over, roared angrily.
At this moment, it was Jiang Wang's Heart Devil that was occupying the Dao Vein's True Spirit.
As soon as Jiang Wang's Soul Source fell in, it was instantly devoured by the Heart Devil.
With this nourishment, black smoke suddenly rose from the Black-eyed Starry Python's body. That pair of ink-black snake eyes had an even deeper shade to them.
It was developing intelligence!
This was Jiang Wang's real Heart Devil. It was born from Jiang Wang's hatred by means of Jiang Yan's means.
Jiang Yan controlled this Heart Devil and used it as a weapon to attack Jiang Wang. With this, he occupied the Dao Vein's True Spirit and competed with Jiang Wang for control of Tongtian Palace. In this way, he built up an absolute advantage and forced Jiang Wang to retreat repeatedly.
But the premise of all this was that the Heart Devil had no consciousness!
The possibility of the Heart Devil developing intelligence had been erased by Jiang Yan, which was why Jiang Yan could control it so easily.
Jiang Yan had been trying to tell Jiang Wang that he was Jiang Wang's Heart Devil. He and the Heart Devil came from the same source and could be one.
But on that rainy night outside Xin 'an City, Jiang Wang had realized the moment he saw the Heart Devil. The Heart Devil was the Heart Devil, and Jiang Yan was Jiang Yan.
This was the problem.
The reason why he had destroyed his own Soul Origin was to help the Heart Demon grow and develop true intelligence.
How terrifying was the Heart Devil? Any cultivator would destroy it as soon as possible. No one would think of actively nurturing and strengthening the Heart Devil.
At any time, this seemed like a suicidal thing to do.
But only at this moment, it was a marvelous move.
Because after the Heart Devil developed intelligence, the first thing it wanted to deal with was not Jiang Wang, but Jiang Yan, who had been controlling it all this time!
Because the Heart Devil also had a basic need after developing intelligence, and that was to occupy the body that gave birth to it.
And this was the bottom line that Jiang Wang and Jiang Yan would never compromise.
In other words, Jiang Wang had deliberately destroyed himself and lured in a strong enemy, turning the fight for the body into a three-way fight between him, Jiang Yan, and the Heart Devil.
The confrontation between two armies had turned into a three-way battle.
For the weaker side, disrupting the situation was the best choice.
It was a fight to the death!
Even Jiang Yan had not thought of this step.
When the two sides had clashed and retreated, he had noticed that Jiang Wang's position had shifted slightly.
But he had only thought that Jiang Wang might be secretly planning to attack the Black-eyed Star Python and take back control of the Dao vein's True Spirit. And he had been prepared for this. He wanted to give Jiang Wang a heavy blow.
But he had not expected that Jiang Wang would destroy his own Soul Origin.
This step was so decisive and so talented!
"As expected, my decision was correct. I cannot let you continue to grow."
Jiang Yan's voice came from the Netherworld Candle that controlled the Candlelight Sword.
And as he spoke, a black-robed youth leapt out of the Black-eyed Star Python.
Endless black smoke condensed into this person. He had the same appearance as Jiang Wang, but the black robe and the madness in his eyes made it easy to distinguish the two.
The birth of intelligence, Jiang Wang's Heart Devil.
With a shake of his hand, the black smoke condensed into a sword and gathered in his hand.
He turned around and unhesitatingly slashed at Deep Abyss Candle!
At the same time that his intelligence was born, he had already broken free from Jiang Yan's control. And as the Heart Devil that had truly absorbed Jiang Wang's Soul Origin, he was truly Jiang Wang's dark side. Once his intelligence matured, he would be able to inherit all of Jiang Wang's talent and wisdom.
Right now, he was only in his nascent state, but Jiang Wang's decisive and fierce side had already appeared.
Although he was crazy, hateful, cold, selfish, and had amplified all of Jiang Wang's negative traits, he was not stupid.
Right now, of the three sides in Heaven Connecting Palace, he and Jiang Wang knew each other very well, and Jiang Yan was unfathomable. He had controlled the situation from beginning to end and was unquestionably the strongest.
Jiang Wang had destroyed his own Soul Origin to create a Heart Devil to break out of this situation.
In a three-way battle, the weak should be united against the strong.
So he attacked Deep Abyss Candle without hesitation. Just as he knew, Jiang Wang would do the same!
