Three years ago, Jiang Feng had sensed the presence of spirit energy and was able to break through to the seventh level of the Body Tempering stage. Today, he was filled with both grief and indignation. Since he'd joined the devil with a single thought, breaking through was naturally a matter of course.
After the breakthrough, Jiang Feng's body had completely turned pitch-black. It was as if he had been enveloped by a black light and had transformed into a Fiend Supremacy, merging into the darkness of the night.
His entire body was surrounded by Devil Qi. The cold and terrifying aura caused the people from the imperial city to involuntarily stop in their tracks. Their hearts were filled with a dense fear.
Jiang Feng's dark gaze looked at them. It was so cold that they trembled all over and subconsciously backed away.
At this moment, their confidence was beginning to shatter. They'd originally come to kill Jiang Feng, but they'd started to back up and tremble with fear at this moment.
"Kid, release the nature of your devil." The old devil's voice fell into Jiang Feng's mind. He raised his palm, and dark demon qi gathered in it. It was demonic and terrifying.
"Die!"
Jiang Feng rushed forward like a wild beast that had escaped. He stretched out his palm and released a demonic aura. The blinding dark demonic light was like a call of death.
The trembling people from the imperial city retreated madly, but there were still two people who failed to dodge. The horrible Demonic Qi enveloped them, and a horrible scene appeared.
As the two's bodies were devoured by the demon qi, scarlet blood burst out of their bodies and flowed into Jiang Feng's body along with the black light. Jiang Feng was actually devouring blood.
"Roar!"
When the fresh blood entered his body, Jiang Feng actually felt incomparably comfortable, and even his aura grew a bit stronger. For the first time, he felt that the taste of fresh blood was so wonderful that he longed for this wonderful feeling.
"Devil, he's a devil..." The horrible scene completely destroyed the psychological defense line of the people from the imperial city, and they all cried out in horror.
"I can endure your arrogance, but you shouldn't have touched my bottom line, so you have to die!"
Jiang Feng once again dashed out. At this moment, apart from his desire for blood, he only had the desire to take revenge. The people from the imperial city had long since been terrified and had no courage to fight. They all fled in quick succession.
However, as soon as the demonic light passed by, it seemed as if it would kill anyone who touched it. There was no way to escape. When their bodies exploded with blood, they were filled with despair. In fact, deep remorse flashed through their hearts. They shouldn't have come here.
"Ah, you damn you!" Very quickly, only the eighth level Body Tempering martial artist was still struggling. He roared madly as he raised his long saber and slashed at Jiang Feng.
Chi! Chi!
Jiang Feng didn't dodge. He reached out his hand to grab the longblade, but the strength of the blade was so strong that it cut straight into his shoulder. The blade entered inch by inch, causing blood to spurt out.
But even so, Jiang Feng wasn't the slightest bit moved. His dark, scarlet eyes stared fixedly at the enemy who had killed his grandfather. His cold face was suffused with boundless killing intent.
Looking at Jiang Feng, who was so crazy, the eighth level Body Tempering martial artist's heart trembled and his hands, which were holding onto his saber, were shaking violently.
"You're from the imperial city and are high up above. You view me as dust and don't care about me. You even think that our lives are cheap and that we can kill you if we want to, don't you?" Jiang Feng said coldly.
The eighth level Body Tempering martial artist trembled and said, "Let, let me go."
He had never thought that facing a person who was one level weaker than him, he would be so afraid. However, what was in front of him was a devil.
"It's all because of the dust that you don't care about. But now, it can decide whether you live or die. One day, I'll shatter all of your arrogance. However, you won't be able to see that day."
As his icy words fell, it was as if he'd been sentenced to death. The terrifying black aura engulfed the other party like a tide, and scarlet blood flowed along the demonic light into Jiang Feng's body.
After swallowing several people's blood, the demonic will on Jiang Feng's body grew even stronger. At this moment, his original will was continuously dissipating, and only a bloodthirsty will was growing wildly.
He looked back at his grandfather, who was lying on the ground. There was no regret in his crazy and sorrowful eyes.
"Buzz buzz!"
At this moment, a ray of light as scarlet as blood appeared between Jiang Feng's brows. It was like a soul that carried an incomparably terrifying bloody aura. Just that bloody aura of destruction seemed to be enough to cause Jiang Feng's soul to collapse.
"Ah!"
The next moment, the blood radiance poured into Jiang Feng's consciousness ocean, causing him to shake violently and cry out in pain.
The moment the blood light entered, it was as if Jiang Feng had been brought into a bloody purgatory. He could sense endless blood all around him, just like a blood colored ocean without the slightest trace of life.
His soul was trembling, as if he was about to fall. That terrifying bloody radiance was currently devouring his soul, making him feel as if he was going to suffocate.
He knew that the old devil took action, wishing to seize this opportunity to possess him.
He was neither surprised nor surprised at the strength of the old devil's soul. He had never believed that there was a fifty-fifty chance of winning. He knew that once the old devil, who had been lurking for three years, made a move, it would be a fatal blow.
"Hahaha, kid, don't worry. I will let you rule the world. I will do whatever you want to do for you." The old devil's strange laughter rang out.
Jiang Feng was already unable to speak. No matter how he resisted, he discovered powerlessly that his mind, willpower, and soul were like a piece of paper in the face of the impact of the blood light, unable to withstand a single blow.
His soul was devoured by the bloody sea, continuously sinking. His consciousness continuously scattered, about to be replaced by the old devil.
However, just as he felt despair, his sea of consciousness suddenly surged. A streak of light seemed to rush into the heavens, tearing apart that blood-colored sea, continuously melting it.
"Ah!" The old devil's soul let out a blood-curdling scream.
The next moment, a ten-story pagoda appeared in Jiang Feng's consciousness ocean. The beam of light was released from the lowest level of the pagoda, tearing apart the old devil's soul.
Jiang Feng's soul trembled as well. Why was there a pagoda in his soul's sea of consciousness?
However, this wasn't the time to be confused. The pagoda had appeared and tore apart the old devil's soul. Jiang Feng's soul regained its freedom and immediately cooperated with the pagoda's light beam to attack the old devil's soul.
The old devil was known as a heavenly demon. His flesh wasn't here, and his soul wasn't dead either. One could see just how powerful he was.
But at this moment, he also realized that things were not going well. He instinctively felt fear and wanted to escape from his sea of consciousness.
However, he still underestimated the power of this pagoda. The light beam had actually sealed Jiang Feng's consciousness ocean and he couldn't escape at all. In addition, the frightening power within the light beam was continuously tearing apart and melting his soul.
He struggled frantically, but he still couldn't break through his sea of consciousness. His soul turned into tens of thousands, but it continued to weaken and melt.
He finally became frightened.
If this continued, his soul would eventually be reduced to dust.
"Kid, stop, stop!" The old devil roared in horror. Tens of thousands of remnant souls gathered together and turned into the shadow of a skinny old man. He looked like a skeleton covered with a layer of skin and was looking in the direction of the pagoda in horror.
Jiang Feng stopped his attacks and his soul phantom floated in front of the pagoda, staring coldly at the old devil's remnant soul. "Fifty five, I won. As you said, I can completely wipe you out."
The demonic shadow trembled slightly and said with a bitter smile, "I admit that I lost. But when you absorbed the Spiritual Qi, I had already turned it into the Devil Qi. You have become a demon, a bloodthirsty demon. If you kill me, you will be doomed eternally."
Jiang Feng laughed coldly and said, "If I don't kill you, isn't it a devil?"
In the past, Jiang Feng didn't want to absorb spirit energy because he didn't want to join the devil. Because even if he could wipe out the spirit of the demon, he would join the devil and couldn't change it.
Once he became a demon, he would be a demon for the rest of his life. From now on, he would probably become a bloodthirsty demon and gradually lose his mind. It was now that he could not suppress the bloodthirsty demon in his heart.
"I once said that the Orthodox Path also has the Devil's Practice. The Devil's Practice also has the Orthodox Path. The Devil's Practice is also the Devil's Practice. The Devil's Practice is only based on a cultivator's will." When it came to the Devil's Practice, the Skyscraping Devil was extremely solemn. It could be seen that the Devil's Practice held an extraordinary position in his heart.
"Demonic cultivators are bloodthirsty. It's a shortcut to cultivation. Since it's a shortcut, there must be something unusual about it. However, by relying on bloodthirsty cultivators, it can only be called a demon. The real devil practices his own blood and his own Tao."
Jiang Feng's pupils shrank sharply. "How can I not be bloodthirsty?"
"Of course."
The Skyfiend said sternly, "Perhaps, we can make a deal. I will help you walk into the true Devil's Practice. You will help me restore my remnant soul until one day, I will be able to leave your body and exist alone."
"What realm do the discarnate souls need to reach after leaving their bodies?" Jiang Feng asked. It was obvious that he didn't want to become a bloodthirsty demon who had lost his mind.
"There's still a long way to go for you to go. However, with your talent and my guidance, it shouldn't be difficult for you to reach that realm." The Skyfiend was very confident as he stared expectantly at Jiang Feng.
Jiang Feng thought for a moment, then looked at the spirit and said emotionlessly, "I can let you go or help you recover your soul, but I have a condition. You must hand over half of the power of the soul and let me control it..."
"Kid, don't go too far." The Skyfiend roared. He only had a wisp of his soul left. If he were to hand over half of it, not to mention that his recovery would be slow, he would be severely injured if Jiang Feng destroyed the other half of his soul.
It could be said that if he handed over half of his soul fragment, his fate would be in Jiang Feng's hands.
As a mighty Skyfiend, the fate of an expert of a generation was controlled by someone else. This kind of feeling was very uncomfortable.
Jiang Feng remained unmoved and continued without a trace of emotion, "There are two choices. Either hand over half of the remnant soul, or I'll completely wipe you out right now."
"How dare you!" The demonic spirit twisted wildly.
Jiang Feng didn't hesitate to activate the pagoda's light beams to kill the demon's remnant soul. The latter let out a miserable shriek, and the shadow of the soul became incomparably illusory, as if it would shatter at any moment.
"Stop! Stop! Boy, you win! I'm willing to divide half of my soul into pieces!" The Skyscraping Devil screamed again and again, but he had no choice but to give in.
Jiang Feng immediately stopped. He didn't want to fight to the death unless it was absolutely necessary. This kind of ending was undoubtedly the best. Not only could he not become a bloodthirsty demon, but he could also control this old demon to prevent himself from being possessed again.
"Don't worry. I won't control your half soul forever. I swear with my life that I will only control you for thirty years. After thirty years, I will return your complete soul."
"Is that true?" The Skyfiend's gloomy expression suddenly turned agitated.
"Of course it's true." Jiang Feng said with certainty.
"Aren't you afraid that I'll kill you to avenge today's shame?" asked the Skyfiend probingly.
"Firstly, we're working together. If you help me gain Dao, I'll help you recover. There's also a Dao in the devil race. My Dao doesn't go against the rules. Secondly, if you can kill me in thirty years, then that's my own incompetence. I won't complain even if I die." Jiang Feng said calmly.
The spirit of the Skyscraping Devil trembled slightly.
Devil's Practice also had its own way. This child's heart was extremely resolute.
Thirty years was also a kind of pressure for him. If he had no strength at that time, it was very likely that he would face his killing intent. What kind of courage did he need to make such an oath?
"Okay, I'll protect you for 30 years!"
The Skyfiend was rather appreciative of this kid. He didn't hesitate to split half of his soul force and didn't wait for Jiang Feng to make a move. The pagoda's beam of light instantly wrapped around him, trapping the Skyfiend's half soul. This time, however, there was no aura of destruction. It was merely to control the Skyfiend's half soul.
