The demonic version of Bei Yuan had clearly misjudged. He had thought that if Minghe awakened her past life, there would surely be a period of recovery.
He could not really be blamed for judging wrongly; anyone in the world would have assumed the same. Take Meng Qingying at present—she had already been more direct than most, yet she had merely regained the power of the perfected Qianyuan realm. The threshold of Wuxiang was not something one could cross at a word.
Under normal circumstances, even if Minghe awakened, her strength would at most have reached the late Qianyuan realm. Yet she had already completely recovered the Nether River Intent, so devouring her now would have been an excellent bargain.
Who could have imagined that the arrangements Nether River had left behind before her Liberation by Violence would be like this?
It was roughly equivalent to leaving all her origin within the dark side of this Jian Mu Fruit. Once her true self found it, she could immediately absorb it and recover, achieving Nether River's rebirth.
It meant Bei Yuan had personally delivered the key to Nether River's revival.
And this thing was nearly useless to anyone else, because it did not contain power, but the origin of intent. Any outsider who dared absorb even a trace would lose their true self.

This impact was a hundred times greater than the impact of entering the Nether River itself... She had failed to hold fast.
She was already Nether River. Even in terms of strength, though she had not yet returned to her peak, she had already reached Wuxiang.
"How dare a mere Reincarnation Disk prattle on about a demonic heart!"
With that cold shout, the entire
