Leylin didn't give Yin Spirit any opportunity to backstab him, he attacked immediately without inhibition.
Leylin sent his soul fluctuation to the Nine Serenities Soul Devouring Flame in the altar of his Sea of Consciousness.
The white jade flame was like the Death Lord who was summoning souls, releasing an energy that could burn all kinds of souls.
Yin Spirit also didn't actually expect such an immediate and aggressive attack from Leylin but being an old sly fox he was prepared nevertheless, he has maintained his distance from Leylin just to be able to respond timely.
"You are still wet behind the ears, human pup."
Swoosh Swoosh Swoosh!
Dark green shadows were standing out in the dark. They were the Yin spirits from the bottom of the sea in the Seven-layered Underworld, which were fostered by the Dark Sea and the Dark Qi. They were evil and bloodthirsty, storming towards Leylin with their blade-like sharp fighting will.
The immense blue flame had the ability to control Yin spirits and wandering ghosts. It was the Yin Spirit Ghost Flame, one of the heaven flames.
His power poured into the Yin spirits, giving them tremendous energy.
Dozens of Yin spirits were moving towards Leylin ferociously. However, when they collided with the Nine Serenities Soul Devouring Flame, they desperately wanted to run away, as if they had seen a ferocious ghost.
A fire circle expanded from the Nine Serenities Soul Devouring Flame at the speed that was faster than the retreat speed of the Yin spirits.
When the Nine Serenities Soul Devouring Flame touched them, the Yin spirits 'cracked,' turning into light spots of pure energy, scattering in the energy storm and disappearing shortly.
"It's the Nine Serenities Soul Devouring Flame!" The dim halo was excited, and its soul fluctuation shot out everywhere. "It's the best for me!"
The immense blue flame gradually emerged from the dim halo. A faint soul stayed in the center of the flame, which had a beam of the Yin Spirit Ghost Flame's feeble soul on its forehead. This was the mark representing that he had absorbed the heaven flame.
The flame that stormed out from the dim halo was urged by the faint soul inside the Yin Spirit Ghost Flame. It was a member of the Dark Clan, who could fuse completely with heaven flame to promote the flame power to the acme.
The God Soul of that Dark Clan's member had three tiers, including the Sea of Consciousness, the particular Dark River of the Dark Clan, and the God Soul topping them all.
This Dark Clan's member was apparently a high-realm warrior. As he had the soul sacrificial altar, he had reached the True God Realm, or even higher.
The God Soul sat neatly above the sacrificial altar, releasing a strong surging soul energy. Blue flames meandered like spiritual snakes, covering many Yin spirits and wandering ghosts.
The Nine Serenities Soul Devouring Flame transmitted a soul-destructive soul energy, Leylin looked at Yin Spirit coldly, "Even if you had your King God body right now, you'll still be crushed against me. Devour!"
BOOM!
Fierce tremor transmitted from Leylin's God Soul, as if some invincible force was waiting to erupt from him.
Shortly, a surging, furious wave overflowed from his glabella.
A special mark glowed on his forehead, releasing a strange energy fluctuation.
Inside the black vertical mark between his eyes, five pentagonal blood clouds appeared!
The five clusters of blood-red clouds were like an ancient mark or some family crest imprinted at his glabella. Blood halo bloomed gloriously, giving people a feeling of something both beautiful and savage
That fluctuation released waves of a lively mark, which disappeared from his forehead and reappeared on the altar of the Inner World Five Devils and his Immortal Demon Blood.
BOOM!
Leylin's Sea of Consciousness was thundered. At that moment, his consciousness entered an ethereal state. His soul sacrificial altar flew out from his Sea of Consciousness, halting in front of him.
The five pentagonal blood clouds mark was also inside the altar, which was releasing strong vibrations, It seemed to be an extremely intimidating power Upanishad.
The mark on his forehead had disappeared and reappeared on the altar, changing it continually. The foundation of this altar, which had been generated from his Soul Consciousness and the energy the Inner World Five Devils had absorbed from the ruins of the seven Demogorgon statues, was being reconstructed magically.
In just a blink, the connection between Leylin and the Five Devils melted. The Five Devils seemed to be smashed down and congregated into the mark. This mark was having a terrific transformation. It twisted, creating a black hole that was diffusing a destructive, extremely evil aura.
Swoosh!
The black hole twisted, releasing an evil and strange, massive suction force.
At that moment, all energies in the center of the energy storm were affected. Countless Yin spirits and wandering ghosts were drawn from the dim halo, disappearing into the black hole.
Even the altar that the Dark Clan's creature had spent so many years to build was affected. No matter how hard it tried, it couldn't get rid of the suction force, being drawn into the black hole.
After several breaths, the Dark Clan's creature and the soul sacrificial were sucked up, including numerous Yin spirits and ghosts. Nothing remained.
"The final evolution of Five Inner Devils is the soul altar devouring upanishad, Devouring Original Essence...", pondered Leylin, looking at the black hole there. He sensed that the black hole also had many massive revolving vortexes, just like in his acupuncture points, to refine some energy.
The black hole hovered in front of him and then disappeared, reappearing in his Sea of Consciousness, staying where the soul sacrificial altar used to be.
That power Upanishad was called 'Devouring Original Essence.' It could devour all kinds of energies. It could destroy, demolish, and break any balance.
Losing its master, the Yin Spirit Ghost Flame calmed down as well bounded by Leylin's soul consciousness, it couldn't move.
"How to subdue a masterless heaven flame? Force or compromise? Do you guys want to try, I'll reward you if you can persuade him to live cooperatively with me."
Leylin presses down the powerful vibration of Yin Spirit Ghost Flame. His thought flickered to connect to the heaven flame's soul sacrificial altar.
"Deal!"
"Sure!"
"Okay!"
"Done!"
"Understood!"
The Ice Cold Flame, the Earth Flame, Purgatory True Flames, Nine Serenities Soul Devouring Flame, and the Corpse Vanishing Flame flew out from the altar after they had received his order.
The Purgatory True Flames, Nine Serenities Soul Devouring Flame, the Ice Cold Flame, the Earth Flame, and the Corpse Vanishing Flame became the most talented and persuasive speakers, as they were releasing their soul fluctuation to communicate with the Yin Spirit Ghost Flame.
The immense blue flame didn't send out any energy fluctuation, as if it were listening to the other flames.
After a while, the Yin Spirit Ghost Flame seemed to be convinced. It turned into the original form, getting into Leylin's head through his eyes, together with the Purgatory True Flames, Nine Serenities Soul Devouring Flame, the Ice Cold Flame, the Earth Flame and the Corpse Vanishing Flame.
The Yin Spirit Ghost Flame then stayed together with the other five heaven flames on the heaven flame altar. It shone calmly, slowly fusing with the heaven flame altar. It then rooted, considering the heaven flame its new base to thrive.
"Stay obedient and reap great benefits.. " Leylin thought reverberated in the heaven flame altar in his sea of consciousness as he sent a stream of sentient force to them, the heaven flames immediately danced in relish.
The six heaven flames were dancing with the support of that energy, as if they were boosted. Each of them looked delighted and excited.
After Leylin broke through to True God Realm, he gained various benefits. A soul altar was forged through his soul fire, The altar of the four level comprising Seal of Upanishad, Sea Of Consciousness, Level of heaven flames, and Demonic Altar. The four powers were purified, making Leylin understand them to a whole new level.
Leylin was a member of the Demon clan. When a Demon Tribe member reaches the True God Realm, they could condense the sacrificial altar in their Sea of Consciousness. The Demon Clan's sacrificial altar usually had three tiers. The bottom was the Sea of Consciousness, the top was the Demon Soul, and the middle tier was the techniques and powers they had learned. This was the main cultivating path of many races.
Leylin was unique from others and had four altars, a new sacrificial altar floating above his Sea of Consciousness, which was formed by the heaven flames. It would co-exist with the tier of the power Upanishad to nurture his God Soul. It could use his Sea of Consciousness to shelter and absorb his energy. Of course, it could provide him powers as well.
Collecting nine types of heaven flames has always been a priority for Leylin and through these years he had added two more to his collection including the third one today.
The nine heaven flames were the mysterious and priceless treasure forged by the origin force of Grace Mainland in its hayday.
These heaven flames included the the Primal Chaos Sacred Flame, the World Extinguishing Thunder Flame, the Nine Serenities Soul Devouring Flame, the Immemorial Demonic Flame, the Purgatory True Flame, the Yin Spirit God Flame, the Vermillion Bird True Flame, the Ice Cold Flame, the Vanishing Corpse Flame.
Among these nine heaven flames, the World Extinguishing Thunder Flame, the Nine Serenities Soul Devouring Flame, the Ice Cold Flame, the Purgatory True Flame, and the Vanishing Corpse Flame had appeared.
Leylin acquired the Nine Serenities Soul Devouring Flame and the Ice Cold Flame; Joseph Will had the Purgatory True Flame which he took from him during his trip to Divine Land; and he also conquered the Vanishing Corpse Flame after killing the Master of the Corpse God Sect Azrail.
Before Leylin was collecting it as a research material but not long after his breakthrough to True God realm he explored the Blood Vein Ring and came to know of the Heaven Flame Divine Refining Technique!
It was an ancient technique, which was to refine the heaven flame. Refining heaven flames fused them to make the Fire of Life. This flame could light up the souls to create the Original Soul.
The Heaven Flame Divine Refining Technique was both profound and mysterious, developed a long, long time ago in the ancient times.
"Five done, four more to go.... Earth Core as the tenth heaven flame is like a bonus, icing on the cake."
...
On the meteorolite..…
Serret, Dalon, Kante, Corpse Chief, and Zenith were waiting in silence.
Those people were the peak existences in the Grace Mainland. However, after they got to this foreign land, they found dangers hiding everywhere. Even if they didn't move, it would still cost their energy.
They all had a feeling of having a big failure, as they thought that they had made a wrong move getting here this time. They shouldn't have been that reckless.
Long, long afterward…
A beam of light flashed in the icy cold darkness in front of them.
Kante cracked an eccentric smile as he said indifferently. "Someone is back. I hope he found something and could give us good news."
Serret and Dalon changed their countenance. Not knowing if Leylin won or not.
Gradually, that light became clearer. After a flash, they saw a muscular body.
Kante and Corpse Chief gawked, not believing in their own eyes, their faces astounded. Zenith in the Yin Written Charm Scripture was terrified, sending his cold voice. "Fuck!"
That person had a body, so he must be Leylin!
Leylin descended on the meteorolite, standing next to Demon Clan members. He threw a glance at Kanta and Corpse Chief, then shifted his eyes to the Yin Written Charm Scripture. Suddenly, he asked. "Something the matter?"
Kante and Corpse Chief grimaced. The Yin Written Charm Scripture shuddered as they heard Zenith's voice again. "Where's Yin Spirit?"
Leylin smiled faintly. "People die for money, birds die for food.. One shouldn't bite more than they could chew or else they might choke. Although not as profound as Lord Zenith, I was also a scholar. When we get out of this mess, I'll urge his Lordship to enlighten this junior and share some insight about these two proverbs."
Kante, Corpse Chief, and Zenith kept silent.
They understood that Leylin was babbling nonsense and giving out blatant threats. Kante, Corpse Chief, and Zenith were so indignant they wanted to vomit blood.
However, at this moment, they didn't say anything bad or shout to ask for a battle with him. Leylin has already proven his worth.
"How is the situation over there?" Kante stayed quiet for a while and then asked Leylin.
"Not good." Leylin continued, "Like I said before, we can only walk ahead. Waiting here isn't different from waiting for death."
After speaking, Leylin directly jumped off the meteorolite where he had just landed not long ago.
Demon Clan members Aart, Jima, Serret and Dalon didn't hesitate a bit, following him and heading towards the center of an energy storm.
"What do you think?" Zenith asked Kante and Corpse Chief.
The other two hesitated for a while. They all knew that they had no solution as they gazed at the energy storm not far from them.
"Be careful. We shouldn't provoke that kid. I can see he... isn't afraid at all. When we get into the energy storm, don't quarrel with him. Don't give him an opportunity to ambush us," Zenith pondered for a while before giving a reluctant suggestion. Actually, he felt fear fill up his heart.
Kante and Corpse Chief weren't stupid, and they both agreed. The three of them then prepared for a while and followed them, jumping into the icy cold darkness.
...
"Do you think we are going to die?" Jima suddenly asked Leylin.
"Maybe."
"I can't help but regret coming here.. "
"Better to choose and regret than to have regret of never choosing. If we die then we die, when have we ever been scared of death..Hahaha." Serret chinded and tried to uplift their mood. At such a troublesome time sulking or double guessing won't get them anywhere.
"Death isn't ever an answer... always choose to live another day. Nothing will get you anywhere except the joy of life..As much as you can and as long as you could, choose life always." Leylin kept moving forward as he spoke.
"But that doesn't mean you would stop moving forward.. No, living a life like that is no better than death. Death isn't just physical death, sometimes death comes in peculiar forms.. Even the liveliest person might be dead in heart. If we choose to stay in Grace Mainland then you would have died everyday with regret till the day you eventually die once and for all."
"I see... But before death doesn't it all seem worthless things to think about. Your words are contradictory, if life is really the greatest joy then how can living become death irrespective of how bad it may be. Puny weak humans who work on the farm aren't living a good life, their life is full of misery, fear of death and without much joy yet they still live nevertheless."
"Jima we are warriors, we live by the edge of the sword and die by the embrace of hell." Dalon spoke with a frown.
"Okay okay enough of the discussion, we have more important issues to deal with." Serret miserably smiled.
Leylin turned around and looked at Jima and others for a moment and laughed.
"Fight with death and battle with life, Make Gods your friend and Devil your wife. Fuck life and wife, go get a knife, and till your last breath live to thrive."
