Chapter 370 Devouring Demon Souls Again
In an instant, the surrounding scenery changed. Shen Rugo felt as if she were in a void, and all sorts of illusions began to arise.
There's the weariness of accumulating 996 work hours in a past life, the pain of being pierced through the heart by Wu Xuemei's arrow, the desire for massive resources, and the anger of being ridiculed...
These are all obsessions and emotions hidden deep in her heart.
However, these illusions had just formed and hadn't even had a chance to unfold when, with a "poof," they vanished.
Ask your heart: "???"
Shen Rugo felt the path beneath her feet tremble slightly, and the surrounding mist churned violently, creating towering waves of air, yet she was still unable to construct an effective illusion.
Shen Rugo was completely bewildered. Why did her illusion turn into bubbles as soon as it appeared?
I stood there and waited for a while, but nothing happened.
"Huh? Something's broken?"
She stamped her foot in confusion.
The tremors on the Path of Inquiry intensified, and the mist flickered irregularly, seemingly emitting an angry roar.
This ancient formation, which has tested countless geniuses in the past, is now facing its greatest challenge since its creation.
Although it is just a road, over countless years, it has developed a sliver of intelligence.
It has its own pride.
It prefers to see countless so-called prodigies weep bitterly and have their Dao hearts collapse under its deception.
For it, this is a kind of enjoyment, a kind of achievement.
But now, this little girl, who is only ten years old, has directly shattered its pride.
"Is it really broken?"
Shen Rugo stomped her foot again.
Wen Xinlu felt as if he had been stabbed in the chest, and became even angrier. A powerful force rushed towards Shen Rugo.
This is a freak, an anomaly, and she must be sent away as soon as possible!
Shen Rugo felt a tremendous force pushing her away from the Path of Inquiry, sending her straight into the gate of the Immortal Abode!
The whole process was as fast as lightning. The people outside only saw Shen Rugo step on, freeze for a few seconds, stomp her feet twice, and then her Heart Path flashed wildly and bounced her inside!
There were hundreds more steps ahead, which were skipped entirely.
Everyone was stunned.
"Fa, what happened?"
"How come she was suddenly sent inside? Did they just skip over the hundreds of steps that followed?"
"Is it that the girl's mind is broken, or is there something wrong with her?"
The faces of the people from Misty Peak and Profound Heaven Sect turned ashen.
They struggled so hard to fight their inner demons, and their journey was so difficult, yet this little girl was directly and effortlessly sent inside.
Inside the immortal abode, Shen Rugo steadied herself and looked inside.
The space is vast, with countless pavilions and towers, carved beams and painted rafters, but most of them are empty, clearly having been visited long ago.
Shen Rugo made her way through a maze of twists and turns until she arrived at a side hall.
The place is filled with demonic energy, which clashes sharply with the peaceful atmosphere of the celestial abode.
In the center of the hall, there was a dilapidated black altar covered with twisted demonic runes.
"Oh? There are demonic artifacts in the immortal abode? Is it a spoils warehouse?"
Shen Rugo's curiosity was piqued, so she moved closer.
As soon as she approached the altar, a thick, inky black smoke suddenly billowed out from the center of the altar, quickly condensing into a phantom of a demon general who was three zhang tall, had two horns on his head, and was covered in hideous bone armor!
Although this demon general was only a remnant soul, its murderous aura was overwhelming, and its oppressive power was more than ten times stronger than that of the demon souls in the ancient battlefield!
"Hehehe! Hundreds of thousands of years! Finally, a living being has set foot in this place!"
The demon general stared at Shen Rugo with his scarlet eyes, his voice like the grinding of metal: "Little brat, you possess such a solid foundation, yet you are trapped in the mortal realm. How pitiful! The immortal path is hypocritical. You should join my demonic path. I will impart to you the supreme demonic art, the Devouring Heaven Technique, to help you devour all things and directly reach the Great Dao!"
Shen Rugo was startled by the sudden appearance of the demon general, but upon hearing the word "devour all things," she immediately took a step back warily and declared righteously, "Demon! Stop trying to bewitch me! I, Shen Rugo, am a legitimate cultivator with impeccable lineage and would never fall into the demonic path!"
"Hmph! Stubborn!"
The remnant soul of the demon general snorted coldly, seemingly too lazy to waste any more words, and directly transformed into a black streak of light, rushing towards Shen Rugo, "Once my demonic seed enters your body, you will have no choice but to obey!"
It planned to forcibly plant a demonic seed to control Shen Rugo.
The black light instantly entered Shen Rugo's body.
The demon general's remnant soul easily made its way to Shen Rugo's soul sea, intending to take root there and control her soul.
However, the moment it entered Shen Rugo's soul sea, it was dumbfounded again.
This is not the soul sea of a mere Qi Refining Stage 7 cultivator; it is clearly a vast and boundless ocean!
Even a true immortal's soul sea isn't that large.
What terrified it even more was that this tiny human's soul sea was not only vast and boundless, but also solid and firm all around!
If its demonic seed were planted in this boundless sea of souls, it would be like a drop of water merging into the ocean. Not to mention controlling this sea, it wouldn't even be able to find its edge!
"This...this is impossible!!"
The remnant soul of the demon general let out a more terrified scream than the previous demon soul. It desperately urged its demonic power, trying to erode and assimilate this sea of souls.
"Interesting, very interesting! Another demonic soul has broken in, trying to control my soul?"
Having already gained experience and benefited greatly from defeating that demonic soul last time, Shen Rugo was now filled with high fighting spirit and immense joy.
Clearly, this demonic soul is far superior to the previous demon.
She immediately activated her soul power attack.
The demon general's magic surged wildly into Shen Rugo's soul sea, attempting to control this vast ocean of souls.
If it succeeds, it can directly reside here, control this human, and not only be reborn, but also become more powerful.
But soon, a chilling feeling washed over it, and it let out a piercing scream: "No! Stop! Stop!"
The remnant soul of the demon general felt its soul power suddenly being tightly bound by a terrifying soul force, making it impossible for it to even move.
What shattered its heart even more was that its soul power was rapidly dissipating, seemingly about to merge directly into this sea of souls.
This time, it was utterly destroyed.
This time, not only will it be unable to control this human, but it will probably even leave its remaining soul here to be refined by this tiny human.
Once the soul is refined, it will completely disappear from this world.
"Stop? You, a mere demon, dare to invade my soul sea with malicious intent, and you dare to tell me to stop?"
Shen Rugo watched the demonic soul roar terrifyingly in the sea of souls and smiled faintly.
"It was my fault! Please, please let me go, let me out!"
The demon general's remnant soul immediately begged for mercy.
"He who kills will be killed. No one makes a deal with the devil. You might as well just disappear from this world!"
Shen Rugo showed no mercy to the remnant soul of the demon general.
With a thought, a monstrous wave surged in his soul sea, forcefully squeezing out that mass of demonic energy!
"puff!"
The demon general's remnant soul was squeezed into a pure wisp of soul power, like a burst balloon. All the violent consciousness within it was removed, and then it was unceremoniously swallowed by Shen Rugo's soul sea.
Before completely dissipating, the demon general's remnant soul left behind a wave of thought mixed with collapse, fear, and a trace of relief.
Just then, with a "thud," something fell down.
"Huh? There's treasure too?"
Shen Rugo couldn't help but gently tap her head.
She felt a little dizzy in her soul sea, but she still picked up the dark, unsightly thing immediately.
Sensing the immense energy contained within, she beamed with joy: "Not bad, not bad! This demonic seed may sound disgusting, but the energy it contains is absolutely extraordinary. I hope it will bring me good luck and allow me to break through my cultivation level!"
She carefully put away the essence of the demon seed.
Clapping her hands, Shen Rugo left the side hall with a smug look on her face, continuing her treasure hunt in the immortal abode, completely unaware of the terrifying existence she had just digested.
Now, she must quickly plunder this immortal abode; there is simply no time to refine the essence of that demonic seed.
