92: Chapter 92 The Holy Ancestor Descends? Sorry, that was my pre-ordered midnight snack.

Canglan Water Mansion, Bronze Altar.

The atmosphere was frozen to the extreme.

Ye Sha hovered in mid-air, Devilish Qi seeping from the pitch-black vortex eyes behind him.

As a Special Envoy at the Peak Early Stage Nascent Soul, with combat power nearing the Middle Stage, the pressure on him was like a tangible black tide, attempting to crush Lin Que.

"Lin Que, you are very arrogant."

Ye Sha slowly raised his right hand. In his palm, a black [Soul-Consuming Demonic Bell] emitted a crisp yet ear-piercing sound: "But of true power... you know nothing."

"Heavenly Demon Domain: Dark World Descent!"

Ding-ling-ling—!

The demonic bell shook.

The light in the entire Crystal Palace was instantly swallowed.

Countless pitch-black ghosts crawled out of the Void Realm, carrying a Soul-corroding coldness as they swarmed toward Lin Que and Su Qingyu. This was a Domain prototype! Within this Dark World, the five senses were stripped away, and spiritual power would be continuously devoured!

"Green Fish, close your eyes."

Lin Que stood in the center of the darkness, his expression indifferent. He didn't even draw his saber.

"True power?"

Inside Lin Que's body, the Four-colored Golden Core (gold, red, white, purple) spun frantically. Especially the Three Thousand Blazing Flames (purple fire) he had just swallowed; that was the power of the stars, the nemesis of darkness!

"Just with these few rats of yours that dare not see the light?"

Boom!

Lin Que stomped his foot violently.

An extremely gorgeous four-colored fire lotus bloomed explosively with him as the center! Golden Buddhist light, red blood Qi, white extreme cold, and purple astral flames!

"Light up... for me!!"

Chichi!

The moment the fire lotus bloomed, the dark Domain that had blanketed the area melted instantly, like snow meeting a blazing sun!

Those hideous ghosts didn't even have time to scream before being purified into nothingness.

"What?! Four types of Heavenly Flames?!"

Ye Sha's expression changed drastically. His eyes bled from the intense light, and he was forced to retreat dozens of yards.

One person possessing four types of extreme-attribute flames? Was this kid's Physical Body forged from divine iron?!

"It's not over yet."

Lin Que's figure flashed, teleporting (relying on physical explosive power) in front of Ye Sha. The starfall mo dao, wrapped in four-colored flames, slashed down!

Seven Absolute Blades — Fiery Hell: Shura Slash!

Clang!!

Ye Sha summoned a top-grade demonic weapon, the [Nether Spike], to block.

However, the moment they made contact, he felt as if he had collided with a falling meteor.

"Pfft!"

Ye Sha's tiger-grip split open, and he was sent crashing into the silt below, smashing out a deep pit.

"This is the Nascent Soul Peak?"

Lin Que hovered above the altar, looking down with a contemptuous gaze: "Too fragile. Not even as tough as that flood dragon."

"Bastard!!"

From the deep pit, Ye Sha rushed out with disheveled hair, his eyes filled with resentment and madness.

He knew that conventional means couldn't defeat this freak.

Although the opponent was at the Middle Stage Golden Core, his Physical Body, Heavenly Flames, and spiritual power reserves were more monstrous than a Middle Stage Nascent Soul!

"Since you want to die, this seat will fulfill your wish!!"

Ye Sha suddenly turned his head to look at the locked Heavenly Demon Arm in the center of the altar.

He no longer hesitated, biting the tip of his tongue and spitting out a streak of essence blood toward Su Qingyu!

"With blood as the guide! Innate Wood Spirit, open the array!!"

Buzz!

Although Lin Que blocked Su Qingyu, this essence blood was a sacrificial secret technique that directly triggered the aura within Su Qingyu's body.

Su Qingyu's face turned pale, feeling her life force flowing uncontrollably toward the altar.

Crack!

Crack!

Having absorbed the Innate Wood Spirit Qi, the nine Dragon-Locking Chains holding the Heavenly Demon Arm finally snapped!

Rumble—!!!

A terrifying will from the Ancient Primordial era, filled with tyranny, destruction, and greed, instantly awakened!

That massive Heavenly Demon left arm suddenly clenched its fist! The entire Canglan Water Mansion began to collapse!

"Hahaha! The Saint Ancestor has awakened!!"

Ye Sha laughed wildly. He didn't flee but instead opened his arms and rushed toward the giant arm with fanaticism: "Saint Ancestor! Please grant me power! I am willing to sacrifice my Physical Body to become your vessel!!"

The Heavenly Demon Arm seemed to understand his words, or perhaps it sensed the Demonic Technique aura on him.

Whoosh!

Countless purple-black Devilish Qi tentacles extended from the arm, instantly piercing into Ye Sha's body!

"Aaaah!!"

Ye Sha let out a roar of both pain and excitement. His aura began to skyrocket! Middle Stage Nascent Soul... Late Stage Nascent Soul... Nascent Soul Great Perfection!! He even faintly touched the threshold of Soul Transformation!

"Lin Que! Now it's your turn!!"

Ye Sha's muscles swelled as he transformed into a half-human, half-demon monster. Feeling the infinite power within him, he looked at Lin Que with a sinister grin.

However.

Lin Que stood in place, watching the "transforming" Ye Sha. Not only did he not stop it, but he also rubbed his chin, wearing an expression as if looking at an idiot.

"Idiot."

"You think that's power?"

"That is... Possession."

Sure enough. In the next second, Ye Sha's smile froze.

"No... something's wrong... my consciousness... Get away! I am the Special Envoy! I am the vessel... not the sacrifice!!"

He discovered in horror that the Heavenly Demon Arm was not only instilling power but also devouring his Soul! It wanted to be resurrected! It needed to completely occupy this body!

"He... Help..."

Ye Sha's consciousness began to blur, his eyes gradually becoming hollow, about to be completely replaced by the Heavenly Demon's will.

"Sigh, what a waste."

Lin Que sighed and took a step forward, arriving directly in front of the tentacle-wrapped Ye Sha.

He reached out and grabbed one finger of that Heavenly Demon left arm which was currently transferring energy.

"System, dinner time."

[Detected High-dimensional Energy Body (Heavenly Demon Severed Limb)!]

[Current Status: Soul Possession/Energy Infusion in progress.]

[Logic Reorganization initiated — Middleman earning the profit margin!]

[Operation 1: Direct all "Heavenly Demon's terrifying will/Possession program" — toward Ye Sha (since he voluntarily became a vessel, judged as legal reception)!]

[Operation 2: Intercept "Heavenly Demon's pure flesh and blood essence/Origin energy"! Direct toward Host Lin Que!]

"You handle the madness, I'll handle the eating."

"Clear division of labor."

Buzz!!!

A bizarre scene occurred.

The Heavenly Demon Arm, which had been eroding Ye Sha's Soul while also granting him power, suddenly "twitched."

Under the System's overbearing intervention, all the negative will, insane killing intent, and Possession curse contained within the Heavenly Demon Arm surged into Ye Sha's mind like a flood!

"Aaaaaah!!"

Ye Sha's eyes instantly rolled back, black saliva dripped from his mouth, and his Soul completely collapsed, becoming a trash bin for the Heavenly Demon's will.

Meanwhile.

The most essential and purest ancient demon god flesh and blood power within the Heavenly Demon Arm was forcibly separated, surging frantically into Lin Que's body through his arm!

[Devouring Ancient Heavenly Demon Left Arm (Essence Version)!]

[Undying Blood Body progress: 10%... 30%... 50%!]

[Physical Body strength: Nascent Soul level → Soul Transformation level (prototype)!]

"Gulp... delicious!"

Lin Que trembled all over; it was a shiver of extreme pleasure.

His Undying Blood Body was undergoing a qualitative change! The originally flowing blood began to take on a faint purple-gold tint! That was the characteristic of Demon God blood!

And that massive Heavenly Demon left arm, as its essence was sucked dry, was shriveling and weathering at a visible rate...

"Roar... No... I am... the Saint Ancestor..."

Beside him, Ye Sha, whose brain had been completely blown by the Heavenly Demon's will and turned into an idiot, looked at his "shrinking" source of power and instinctively reached out to grab it.

"Beat it."

Lin Que didn't even turn his head, slapping backward.

Slap!

This slap carried the immense Heavenly Demon power he had just absorbed.

Boom!

Ye Sha, who possessed the (inflated) aura of the Nascent Soul Great Perfection, had his head explode like a watermelon! Along with that contaminated Nascent Soul, it shattered into dregs.

"Burp—"

A few breaths later.

That ancient Heavenly Demon left arm, which had once terrified the entire Southern Commandery and been sealed for ten thousand years, completely turned into a pile of white bone ash, scattering in the water.

Lin Que withdrew his hand, feeling the terrifying power within him that seemed capable of blowing apart the firmament with a single punch.

[Devouring complete!]

[Undying Blood Body advancement: High Rank (Blood Rebirth: Demon God Physique)!]

[Unlocked new Divine Ability: Heavenly Demon Disintegration (No Side-Effect Version) — Can instantly burn blood Qi to double combat power; afterward, just eating something good will replenish it.]

"Soul Transformation level Physical Body..."

Lin Que clenched his fist, and the surrounding space was directly pinched into cracks.

Now, even without using spiritual power, relying solely on his Physical Body, he could pin an old monster at the Late Stage Nascent Soul to the ground and rub them in the dirt!

"Young Master... Young Master Lin?"

In the distance, Su Qingyu huddled in a corner, looking at the man emitting a purple-gold glow who looked more like a demon god than a demon god, and called out cautiously.

Lin Que turned around, the purple-gold light in his eyes gradually fading as he regained clarity.

He looked at the terrified Su Qingyu and grinned, revealing a row of pearly white teeth:

"Done."

"The ingredients were very fresh; this trip wasn't in vain."

He glanced at the collapsing Crystal Palace.

"Let's go; this place is about to collapse."

"And..."

Lin Que's gaze pierced through the river water, looking toward the distant sky.

At the moment he devoured the Heavenly Demon Arm just now, he sensed a prying gaze. It was a gaze from the headquarters of the Zhengdao Alliance, or even from the depths of the Central Continent's Forbidden Ground.

"Having eaten such a large piece of meat, those real old fogies..."

"...will probably be unable to sit still."
