Chapter 578: Devour! [Part 2]
Chapter 578: Devour! [Part 2]
Sun Wutian's Divine Shapeless Jade was actually no match for the Blood Demon?
Something was off here.
Fang Che quickly understood the reason. Within this newly acquired Divine Shapeless Jade, there was actually a remnant of the Blood Demon's Divine Mind!
With a master against a masterless one, it was only natural for the former to have the upper hand.
Damn it, Fang Che was speechless.
This Blood Tyrant Demon Lord was indeed extremely cautious to the extreme.
A portion of his Divine Mind was within Lin Ao's body, another within Lin Pingjiang's, and now, there was even a part of it within this Divine Shapeless Jade.
Just how afraid of death were you? How many backup plans did you leave for yourself?
But unfortunately... all your backup plans have been destroyed by me alone. This must be fate.
Fang Che reached out and grabbed the shapeless jade in his hand.
Infinite blood slaughter Qi instantly surged towards his soul, launching a frenzied attack.
Fang Che clenched the jade, and the Infinite Sutra suddenly activated, as the Hate Heaven Blade Intent surged forth, and the aura of slaughter exploded, "Get out here!"
Within Fang Che's own divine consciousness space, it was as if he had entered his absolute domain.
Even a complete soul of the Nightmare Demon had been devoured by Fang Che, not to mention that Fang Che had improved several times compared to when he first encountered the Nightmare Demon.
Moreover, the Blood Demon's Divine Mind was now only a fragment, less than a third of its original self. It was instantly overwhelmed by the aura of slaughter.
A miserable cry rang out, as the Divine Mind was shaken out of the shapeless jade, almost formless, with two large, terrified eyes staring at Fang Che.
Fang Che sighed.
So it did exist.
I always felt that my divine consciousness space was a bit strange. Slowly, these demon heads seemed to be gathering in my consciousness, giving me a peculiar feeling.
"Blood Tyrant Demon Lord?" Fang Che asked, frowning.
Across from him, the illusory shadow stared at him with fear, and he could clearly sense that the soul before him could devour and annihilate him at any time!
The density of this soul was clearly that of a complete physical body!
In other words, I am now within this person's sea of consciousness, having entered another's absolute domain!
"Who are you?" The remnant of the Blood Tyrant Demon Lord asked.
"Fang Che!"
"Fang Che?"
Blood Tyrant Demon Lord: "I've never heard of you. Who are you? Are you a Protector?"
"Now you know."
Fang Che humphed and said, "Clever plan. Blood Tyrant Demon Lord, you're the Blood Demon who once dominated the world, right? Truly extraordinary."
The Blood Demon gritted his teeth and said, "Since you know my name, why don't you let me out quickly?"
Fang Che snorted and said, "I dare to let you out, but in your current state, can you survive?"
The Blood Demon fell silent.
Because Fang Che was right. He was now just a remnant of a Divine Mind, and not even a complete one at that.
Without the Divine Shapeless Jade, he would be annihilated by the Red Dust Wind in no time once he left.
"Give me back my jade!" The Blood Demon roared, "Let me out!"
"It seems you haven't grasped the situation yet."
Fang Che summoned a chair out of thin air and sat down, waving his hand: "Come! Let him wake up and realize who the boss is!"
With a whoosh, the Golden Horned Dragon rushed forward and slapped the Blood Demon, causing him to tumble over two or three dozen times.
Then, a spear appeared.
Ming Shi directly thrust the spear into the Blood Demon's Divine Mind's forehead, and the spearhead spun like a spinning top.
The Blood Demon's Divine Mind emitted an unbearable cry of misery, "Ahhh..."
A sword appeared out of thin air.
Ming Jun, holding the sword, stood before the Blood Demon, "I'm going to stab your eyes out!"
With a 'pfft', the sword tip pierced the Blood Demon's eyes.
The Blood Demon let out a miserable hiss and was blasted apart.
It turned into a cloud of blood.
The Golden Horned Dragon, Ming Shi, and Ming Jun all stared intently, waiting for the Blood Demon to re-condense.
Finally, the Blood Demon re-condensed.
Because if it didn't re-condense, it would be directly assimilated by Fang Che's sea of consciousness energy.
Before Ming Shi and the others could rush over, the Blood Demon's Divine Mind suddenly prostrated itself with a loud thud.
"Spare me!"
Fang Che was stunned.
You're a damn ancient demon, and although you're just a remnant of a Divine Mind, but to kneel and beg for mercy like this, isn't it a bit too undignified?
"Spare me... Big Brother, spare me..."
The Blood Demon's illusory figure knelt on the ground, tears and snot streaming down his face.
"I'm useful, I can be of great use to you!"
In reality, Fang Che's thoughts were vastly different from those of many demon heads.
Indeed, there were quite a few villainous characters who were fierce and fearless, like Duan Xiyang.
However, for ordinary demon heads, there was no question of honor.
Especially in a completely enclosed consciousness space where no one else knew, life and death were only a thought away...
For such demon heads, what use was honor? Survival was the most important.
Moreover, this was not even a complete soul, so what dignity? For whom would they maintain their dignity?
This remnant of the Blood Demon's Divine Mind was very smart.
The first thing it did was to go straight for the vital point: "I'm useful!"
Because it understood that only by doing so could it survive.
If not, I'll be reduced to becoming nourishment for his Divine Mind.
Using value!
That's his only talisman!
"What use do you have?" Fang Che asked.
"I'm very useful! Whatever you want to know, as long as I know it, I can tell you."
The Blood Demon was very obedient.
"Convinced?" Fang Che glanced at him.
"Convinced! I'm convinced!"
The Blood Demon's words made the three little spirits and the Golden Horned Dragon feel bored.
How could he be convinced so easily?
They hadn't even made a move yet.
Especially the virtual little spirit, a small piece of iron, hadn't even had time to catalyze, and now he could only watch as the two big shots brandished their blades and spears, feeling a sense of urgency for no apparent reason.
Silently, he returned to his small dwelling and started working hard.
Fang Che, sensing this, couldn't help but feel a bit surprised.
He didn't expect that it could have such a catalytic effect.
Fang Che looked at the Blood Demon's Divine Mind and said, "What exactly happened with Lin Pingjiang back then? Explain that to me first."
The Blood Demon began to explain.
However, his memory was fragmented, jumping from one topic to another... It was clear that his memory was incomplete.
But Fang Che also realized that Lin Pingjiang was the Blood Demon's disciple here, and he was sacrificed to help the Blood Demon's quick resurrection.
"Tell me about the upper echelons of the Only Righteous Sect."
Fang Che said.
The Blood Demon rolled his eyes, "All the details, it won't take long to explain. But you're still going to kill me, aren't you?"
"So?"
"Why not keep me alive? In the future, we can talk anytime, and if you have any martial arts problems, we can discuss them at any time. I can provide you with countless experiences."
"As long as you stay alive?"
"I just need to stay alive on this jade!"
The Blood Demon appeared humble and said, "I beg you, don't melt my jade."
Fang Che asked, "Are you talking about the Divine Shapeless Jade?"
The Blood Demon suddenly raised his head, and the look of shock and despair on his face was completely exposed.
He actually knew!
He knew this was the Divine Shapeless Jade!
He had been saying 'this jade, this jade', but he didn't dare to say the real name of the jade.
He was worried about this.
Fang Che found it amusing and smiled, "Didn't you realize that the other piece of jade is also the Divine Shapeless Jade?"
The Blood Demon hung his head in dejection.
Of course, he had noticed it. But he didn't recognize whose it was. The residual aura of Sun Wutian had been completely erased.
But seeing Fang Che's youth, he naturally still held out some hope.
If Fang Che didn't know, then he could really plan to escape, or he could just occupy this guy's body?
After all, he had already entered his Divine Mind space. With time, as he continued to devour his spiritual power, wouldn't this body naturally become his?
It must be said that the Blood Demon's thoughts were quite beautiful.
It's just that... reality was different from what he imagined.
"Do you think I don't know this is the Divine Shapeless Jade?" Fang Che asked playfully.
The Blood Demon hurriedly put on a smile, "How could I? There are very few jades in this world that can conceal Divine Minds, and the Divine Shapeless Jade is one of them. This is common knowledge, how dare I play tricks with it here."
Fang Che hummed and said indifferently, "Then tell me one thing, and I'll consider keeping you alive."
The Blood Demon was delighted, "Please tell me. I will speak without reservation."
"The Divine Shapeless Jade... There are a total of nine pieces. The other pieces are with Duan Xiyang, Sun Wutian, Grandee Ji, Shadow Demon, Seductive Demon, Evil Sword, and me.
The Blood Demon hesitated.
"There are a total of nine pieces of the Divine Shapeless Jade. Besides resurrection, what other uses does it have?"
This was Fang Che's biggest question about the Divine Shapeless Jade.
What was so special about this jade? Why did the Only Righteous Sect treasure it? Was resurrection its only function?
The Blood Demon hesitated, "Will you really spare my life?"
"But you have to believe me now."
Fang Che said, "Or I'll erase you right now!"
"I'll tell you!"
The Blood Demon steeled his heart.
"The origin of the Divine Shapeless Jade... is from the Heavenly Centipede Deity. There are nine pieces in total. Two pieces are with Yan Nan, and the others are with Duan Xiyang, Sun Wutian, Grandee Ji, Shadow Demon, Seductive Demon, Evil Sword, and me.
"The ones who died together with me, Shadow Demon, Seductive Demon, Evil Sword, and Knife Demon, have not resurrected yet."
The Blood Demon sighed.
He felt a bit envious of them. Although they hadn't resurrected yet, at least they were safe.
Unlike himself, who was in this state now.
"The legend of the Divine Shapeless Jade is... because it was nourished by the earth's core in the Bear Continent and fused with the Heavenly Centipede Deity's Divine Mind, becoming a masterless Divine Mind. If all nine pieces are gathered, it is said that..."
The Blood Demon stammered.
"It is said to have a powerful effect, but no one has ever confirmed it."
The Blood Demon didn't want to speak, and he wanted to make up a lie, but it was very difficult to lie about this.
"Powerful effect?"
"That... I don't know." The Blood Demon said.
"If all nine pieces are in your sect, why haven't they been gathered already?"
Fang Che asked.
"Every Jade must have a sufficiently qualified strong Rebirth to be effective. But no one knows what its true purpose is, so no one dares to take the risk. After all, the loss of nine great experts is too great a price to pay. No one dares to gamble with that. That's why the Supreme Leader forbade their fusion."
Fang Che looked at the two pieces of Jade in his Sea of Consciousness, deep in thought.
It was vague, yet he felt a sense of concreteness.
He had already obtained two pieces, but... to gather all nine?
This thought had never crossed Fang Che's mind!
It was too difficult!
Just consider Duan Xiyang, who could kill him? Not to mention, they would also have to wait for a Rebirth, and only then would the Jade be of use. Who knows when that would happen?
With this realization, Fang Che understood why the Supreme Leader of the Only Righteous Sect had given up on this mysterious function.
Because... even if such a plan were to be set up, it would take at least tens of thousands of years, and success was not guaranteed... For instance, if someone were to snatch one piece, the entire plan would be ruined.
With the capabilities of Dongfang Sansan, if the Only Righteous Sect were to set up such a deadly trap, it would be a simple matter for Dongfang Sansan to gather the power of the Guardians and snatch one or two pieces.
However, greed had already taken root in Fang Che's heart.
Putting aside other considerations, with Sun Wutian's Divine Shapeless Jade in his Sea of Consciousness, his Soul Energy was increasing daily, far surpassing the cultivation speed of others!
Moreover, he could also borrow the power of the Blood Slaughter Qi!
This greatly enhanced his combat strength.
If he could obtain more pieces, his strength would undoubtedly increase at an even faster rate!
"Where did the Shadow Demon, the Evil Sword, the Nightmare Demon... and that other one, all perish together?"
"Yes, Sun Wutian was known as the Peerless Blade Demon."
"Tsk... What a formidable name. Did those others also perish in the Southeast?"
"Yes, in the Forest of Ten Thousand Spirits. But the exact location of their deaths is unknown."
The Blood Demon said, "Moreover, the place of Rebirth is definitely not the place of death."
"I understand."
Fang Che raised his head, his brows furrowed in deep thought.
After a long while, he lowered his head and looked at the Blood Demon, his eyes filled with contemplation. How should he deal with this guy?
The Blood Demon stammered, "Boss, you promised to let me live..."
Fang Che said, "Letting you live is not difficult, but I can't give you this Divine Shapeless Jade."
The Blood Demon froze, his body turning cold. "What do you mean?"
"I need it." Fang Che spoke as if it were the most natural thing in the world. "Give it to you? What are you dreaming about?"
"But if I don't attach myself to this Jade, I'll dissipate..."
The Blood Demon lamented, "Isn't this the same as killing me?"
Fang Che's brows furrowed. "What do you mean? If you don't get this Jade, you can't live, right?"
"Yes!" The Blood Demon saw a glimmer of hope.
Fang Che nodded thoughtfully. "Then you shouldn't live."
"Huh?" The Blood Demon was confused.
Fang Che's Divine Soul Power suddenly surged, overwhelming the Blood Demon.
"Keeping you, a disaster waiting to happen, would also mean sacrificing one of my Jades. Moreover, I don't know what your future intentions are. Keeping you in my Sea of Consciousness, using my power to keep you alive, and then allowing you to possess my body in the future? What are you dreaming of?"
"You... You're breaking your promise!" The Blood Demon was filled with indignation.
Fang Che pressed on relentlessly.
He had already been so accommodating to this junior, and yet he couldn't even get what he wanted in return.
"I don't need to keep my word with you!" Fang Che said as he pressed down with all his might, manipulating the Blood Slaughter Qi from Sun Wutian's Shapeless Jade to trap the Blood Demon!
The Nightmare Demon had been devoured by him, and compared to the Nightmare Demon back then, the current Blood Demon was at least ten times weaker.
Amidst the Blood Demon's desperate pleas and struggles...
In just two hours, he completely disappeared from the Sea of Consciousness.
Fang Che felt his Sea of Consciousness energy surging wildly.
At the same time, the Divine Shapeless Jade in his hand, after the original owner, the Blood Demon, had completely disappeared, the strong Blood Slaughter Qi unique to the Blood Demon began to surge out.
After experiencing Sun Wutian's Slaughter Qi, Fang Che was already very familiar with this power.
He sat cross-legged in the room, allowing the Blood Slaughter Qi to surge out, and then he continuously absorbed it, while the three little ones devoured it in large gulps.
The Golden Horned Dragon devoured the Blood Slaughter Qi and scattered the dead energy.
One person, four souls, and five channels of absorption.
The remaining chaotic Blood Slaughter Qi emerged from his body, and the Golden Horned Dragon silently dispersed it into the air, letting the wind carry it away to an unknown destination.
This would be an extremely long process.
During this time, Fang Che had no intention of going out.
He had already drawn too much attention to himself. Now that the primary evil had been eliminated, the rest was up to Mo Gan Yun and the others, who were already very proficient in handling such matters.
Moreover, the Night Emperor had already arrived and begun his massacre on the White Elephant Continent.
So Fang Che was at ease, and the next step was to let Feng Xiangdong and the others go out and make a name for themselves, allowing them to gain more experience and build their reputation.
If Fang Che continued to take the lead, then these seven people would still be overshadowed by his brilliance.
That was something Fang Che did not want to see.
The more these seven people shone, the better!
Moreover, Fang Che had a sense of urgency in his heart.
He had to absorb and fuse these Blood Slaughter Qi as quickly as possible.
The last time, Sun Wutian's Divine Shapeless Jade and his resurrection had caused quite a stir, and Fang Che knew the extent of it!
It didn't make sense that this time, the Blood Demon seemed to have no face.
So the Only Righteous Sect must also be searching. If this Blood Slaughter Qi were to be discovered... it would be difficult to explain.
Then there's the fact that Sun Wutian could come to deliver resources at any time.
Others might not be able to recognize the Blood Slaughter Qi of the Blood Demon, but how could Sun Wutian not? Therefore, Fang Che had to absorb and transform it into his own before Sun Wutian arrived.
He had to be able to control it at will, at the very least.
Otherwise, if Sun Wutian were to sense even a bit of it, Fang Che didn't even dare to imagine what might happen.
He had obtained this piece of jade so suddenly that he hadn't even dreamed about it beforehand.
So he sat peacefully, ignoring everything happening outside, and focused on continuously catalyzing, absorbing, and comprehending.
The Blood Demon Qi gradually permeated the bodies of the Nether Lord, the Nether World, and the Flying Dagger Pixie, and this aura was being constantly integrated into the Divine Metal within them.
The sharp and ferocious aura of the Nether Gun and the Nether Lord's Blade became increasingly distinct.
Even the smallest piece of Divine Metal, which hadn't been polished and reshaped yet, began to emit Blood Slaughter Qi.
For ten whole days and nights.
Fang Che sat there without moving a muscle.
During those ten days, the air pressure over half of the White Elephant Continent was low, and the Blood Slaughter Qi that drifted out was blown in all directions by the wind.
No one could find the source, and no one could recognize this violent Blood Slaughter Qi as coming from anyone, as it was very faint.
However, the effect on everyone was the same. Everyone felt that no matter what they did during these days, they couldn't bring themselves to be happy.
It was as if they always had a heavy heart, but upon careful thought, they realized they didn't have any worries.
Even the alcoholics wondered why they didn't feel like drinking anymore. They had no interest in it... as if they had a toothache...
Of course, the most obvious effect was on the brothels.
All the customers were listless, unmotivated, and most of them didn't even go. Those who did go felt it was pointless, and those who tried to force themselves to do something discovered that they couldn't get it up no matter what...
They got it up but couldn't keep it up, and when they did, it didn't last long... It felt like 'a great undertaking left unfinished, collapsing halfway.'
So they left in a hurry, pulling up their pants.
All businesses on the White Elephant Continent were in decline.
No one understood the reason, and they could only attribute it to the recent massacres.
After ten days...
Things returned to normal.
The Underground World had been thoroughly plowed by the Night Emperor, who had thrown over 500,000 corpses from underground.
And that was with the Night Emperor holding back.
Moreover, the Night Emperor had left an Ant King as his spokesperson.
The Ant King was also extremely evil and deserved to die; however, these things didn't affect Sikong Ye.
Sikong Ye didn't have any moral hang-ups.
As long as you listen to me and do as I say in the future, and don't cause trouble, I'll keep you around for now.
After all, Sikong Ye was stretched thin.
He needed spokespersons in every state.
The Ant King's men had been killed off, and he himself had been beaten to near death by Sikong Ye several times, swearing loyalty.
Sikong Ye reluctantly agreed.
So the next day, the Ant King, despite his severe injuries, threw himself into busy work.
"I've done some bad things, but if I do anything that harms the heavens and the earth... If even a little of it happens under your command, I'll replace you on the spot!"
Sikong Ye warned.
The Ant King didn't doubt this statement for a moment.
This lord had slaughtered 400,000 to 500,000 people, and killing him would be easier than squashing a bug.
He hadn't spared the Rat King even after the latter had knelt and kowtowed until his brains spilled out. If not for this lord running out of usable people, would he have gotten to the Ant King?
Finally, Fang Che stood up and walked into the courtyard.
These ten days had truly exhausted him.
As expected of a demon on par with Sun Wutian, this Blood Slaughter Qi was almost indistinguishable from the murderous aura within Sun Wutian's Divine Shapeless Jade.
Fortunately, Fang Che suddenly remembered to use this Blood Slaughter Qi to cultivate the Blood Smoke Hand two days later, and after discovering its doubled effectiveness, he went all out in absorbing it.
He directly advanced the Blood Smoke Hand to the fourth level.
This gave Fang Che a pleasant surprise.
With just one more level, he would be able to envelop his hands in red mist, creating the perfect demonic atmosphere.
The growth of his divine sense power wasn't as much as he had imagined, and after refining and purifying it, most of it had been evaporated by Fang Che.
After all, this was just a remnant soul.
After the initial turmoil had subsided, Fang Che was disappointed to find that his divine sense power had only increased by about one-fifth.
"This Blood Demon is really useless!"
Fang Che seethed inwardly.
