The Devilish Immortal Chapter 208 - Soul Devourment

Chapter 208 – Soul Devourment

As Lyu Liang entered the Sun Sea, Dumb, who had been in a deep sleep, was awakened by Great Emperor Sun.

He was a Divided Soul from Lyu Liang. When the main soul was broken, he was also forced into sleep.

Dumb was startled when Great Emperor Sun said, “It is all up to you whether Lyu Liang can recover his cultivation or not! I will separate you from the main soul temporarily, and you will merge with the Holy Soul! After that, if you can defeat Lyu Liang, who is controlled by the Divine Mark, we will succeed!”

“Please tell me what I need to do!” Dumb understood that there was a big world between his and the main soul’s cultivation. Without a.s.sistance from Great Emperor Sun, he would not succeed at all.

Great Emperor Sun also knew how precious the time was, and said in a low voice, “You need to sit down to perform the Mind Mantra, and then wait for the Holy Soul to merge with you. The process may be anguishing, but there is no way to retreat! Begin now!”

Before Dumb could nod, a sharp, fierce aura surged over him. If he had not been prepared for it, he might have fainted immediately.

“Hold on! Once you faint, the merging will stop! There is not much time for us. Try to improve the cultivation as much as possible!” After he had said that, Great Emperor Sun shone with a gorgeous light, turned into a golden flash, and merged into Dumb’s body…

………………………………

“Boy, do you think that you can stop me? Hmph, let me tear her to pieces in front of you! Just see how stupid your choice is!”

That was the first thing that Lyu Liang heard after he regained consciousness. Then, the scene on the Mortal Seven Days reappeared. However, just in front of him, Dongfang Xiaoyu was torn apart by the giant saber-toothed beast!

Although it was merely an illusion, it was so real that Lyu Liang felt very furious and sorrowful internally. Before he could make a further response, a playful and disdainful sound resounded from behind him. “How’s that? Are you satisfied with the prologue that I prepared for you?”

A white-robed man, who had the same appearance as Lyu Liang, squinted his eyes and had an indistinct smile on his face. Besides this, he exuded the Devil Immortal Qi at the Peak of Almighty Immortal all over, just like Lyu Liang!

“You are…” Lyu Liang asked in a low voice. But the man sneered again, “Now that you know who I am, why do you still ask me? Since we share the same body, I know everything in your mind! ”

Lyu Liang was stunned. Although he guessed that the man was the incarnation of the Divine Mark, he was still surprised to learn that the mark could probe his thoughts. At least, he could not probe the mark.

Although the incarnation was not kind at the beginning, Lyu Liang still cupped his hands and said, “Then, you must know why I’m here. If so, please tell me what I should do!”

“If I tell you that you can recover your cultivation at the cost of your life, would you go along with that? Or, you can also kill them!” The incarnation waved his hand, and then, many familiar figures emerged one after another. They were all important people in Lyu Liang’s life!

Lyu Liang knew that all of these were illusory! But looking into their warm, peaceful eyes, he felt touched internally!

Then, just as he expected, these familiar people all began launching attacks. They were a large crowd, but none of their cultivation levels reached the Almighty Immortal level. Therefore, if Lyu Liang fought back, he could kill all of them within half an hour.

Frowning slightly, Lyu Liang did not take action, but stepped backward. At that moment, the incarnation said with a light laugh, “Even though you know that this is illusory, you still don’t want to kill them? As long as you do that, I can merge with your soul. Only after recovering your cultivation can you realize your aims and really accompany these people. Am I wrong?”

His words startled Lyu Liang greatly because that was how he thought in his subconsciousness! But it was exactly because he missed all these people that he hesitated, even if he knew that they were not the real ones!

Not far away, the incarnation seemed to have antic.i.p.ated the situation. He shook his head, and then, his eyes lit up as he said, “Having seen your performances in the past, I know that you are not reliable. Just let me help you!”

Suddenly, the incarnation disappeared. The next moment, he reappeared with the Kunwu Sword penetrating Shangguan Ying’s chest!

When Shangguan Ying died, Lyu Liang felt an undescribable sorrow and pain in his Divine Soul, as if something important was missing, slowly!

Without any hesitation, Lyu Liang took action. He did not target his acquaintances, but his opponent, the incarnation of the Divine Mark!

He summoned the Kunwu Sword, but then, he was surprised to find that the incarnation did not make any defense until he was hacked to death directly!

When Lyu Liang was somewhat confused, the incarnation changed into the appearance of Xuanli Yue, his mother, with tears in her eyes and a hint of sadness on her face. Then, she turned into a wisp of cyan smoke and dissipated.

When Lyu Liang was stunned, the incarnation began killing more of his acquaintances.

Every time an acquaintance died, Lyu Liang felt one thing was lost in his heart. Although he knew that all of these people were not real, his anger and pain were still intensified.

The only thing that Lyu Liang could do was continue hacking at the incarnation. But no matter how many times he killed him, the one who finally died would always be one of his acquaintances…

After a while, when all the people died, the incarnation suddenly exuded an overwhelming black aura, and his cultivation also skyrocketed to an unprecedented high level!

“How stupid you are! You are so dull that it will only be blasphemy for me to merge with your soul! Now, just let me devour your soul!” With the smile vanishing from his face, the incarnation stared augustly at Lyu Liang, who was numb with sorrow…

………………………………

In the Lyu family in Sishui Country, there were no figures. Furthermore, for about 50 kilometers around it, the place had become an empty city!

The Lyu family was protected by a ma.s.sive, colorful defense cover, and several cultivators were standing outside. Apart from Xu Mubai and other acquaintances of Lyu Liang’s, a bald old man was also there.

“Senior Tai Chu, is it really the only way? Will it do any harm to Lyu Liang’s real body?” Lyu Hong asked the mysterious old man respectfully, who was a Divided Soul from Tai Chu Ancestor Lord.

With a serious look on his face, Tai Chu Ancestor Lord frowned and said, “Even if it will, the harm is limited. What you should be worried about now is that if you can not rival Lyu Liang, who is controlled by the Divine Mark, you will be killed instead. Besides, this Divine Mark is so bloodthirsty that he may destroy the entire world!”

“Then… if so…” Xu Mubai said hesitantly, thinking of the possible results.

“Ma.s.sacre! A real ma.s.sacre! So please remember, don’t let Lyu Liang get out of this formation. Once he gets out, I will kill him. At that time, I will destroy both his body and soul!” Tai Chu Ancestor Lord said in an extremely serious tone, which alerted all the people present.

Seemingly to ease the atmosphere, Tai Chu Ancestor Lord smiled slightly and said, “You don’t need to be overly concerned. Just as I said, you just need to guard the Formation Key and prevent Lyu Liang from going out of it. As long as his opponent can hold off him, success will be near to us. Go! I’ve said what I should say. Now, move in position!”

Xu Mubai, Li Wuyi, and Yang Ying nodded at each other before they entered the Big Seven-color Array Unit in three directions, respectively. Lyu Hong opened his mouth, but he did not know what to say. Finally, he let out a deep sigh in resignation.

Tai Chu Ancestor Lord had a stern look on his face again. He sighed slightly and thought, “Sun, your bet is too great. I hope that everything goes as you plan. You’d better not give any chance to my Divided Soul to take action!”

At this moment, another figure appeared. It was Zhu Yan, who was smiling.

Tai Chu Ancestor Lord was not surprised to see him there. He nodded slightly and said, “A Saint Emperor as you are, you are willing to help Lyu Liang so selflessly. Let me ask you one last time—have you really decided to partic.i.p.ate?”

Zhu Yan nodded firmly and said with a smile, “Senior, please don’t worry. There are some people in this world who want to kill me, but Lyu Liang will never be on the list!”

Tai Chu Ancestor Lord also smiled and said, “If so, you are an absolute barrier to prevent Lyu Liang, and also his primary murderous target. Please be careful!”

………………………………

In the s.p.a.ce of Sun Sea, Dumb frowned tightly and trembled slightly, seemingly suffering great pain. What was shocking was that his cultivation had skyrocketed to the Early-stage of Almighty Immortal!

Suddenly, the muscles on his face tightened, and he looked much more anguished. At the same time, his aura began becoming unstable.

“Boy, concentrate! Someone will help us hold off the Divine Mark for some time. The only thing that you need to do now is to focus on the cultivation. Don’t think about going out until you reach the Peak of Almighty Immortal!” Great Emperor Sun’s words settled down Lyu Liang’s aura again.

Meanwhile, with a bright flash, a figure appeared inside the ancestral temple of the Lyu family. Although he had the same appearance and smile as Lyu Liang, his cruel and fierce aura suggested that Lyu Liang had been controlled by the incarnation of the Divine Mark.

“Eh? I finally regain my cultivation, but why is there not anyone to welcome me? Alas! I expected to celebrate it with a bloodbath, but now it seems that some powerful figure wants to stop me! Hmph, do you think you can stop me? Quit daydreaming!” The incarnation let out a roar. When he disappeared, a destructive aura also burst out.

Inside the Big Seven-color Array Unit, a pitch-black handprint suddenly emerged in the bright sky. The next moment, all the buildings in the Lyu family were crushed!

At the same time, several black arrows swiftly shot at the incarnation, who showed up again. However, when they were about to hit the target, a sun, which was burning with black flames, appeared and defended against all the attacks, just like a shield.

Without any pause, numerous flashes of silver sword light and a giant, three-headed, six-armed puppet also pounced at the incarnation.

“The G.o.dd*mn formation has constrained my cultivation at the Early-stage of Tao Master! Hmph, even so, you are no match for me!” The incarnation did not panic at all. Instead, with his eyes lit up in excitement, he turned his head slightly and said, “I’ve been hearing about ‘Demon Broadsword-Fantasy Moon’ for a long time. Now that brother Zhu is also here, let me see how powerful you are!”
