Devil Blade Heart's Long Road of Devouring (Too Much Content, Proceed with Caution)

Devil Blade Heart—Long Road of Devouring (Too Much Content, Proceed with Caution)

Countless thoughts flashed through Luo Feng's mind, but it took only an instant.

His eyes were filled with resolve. His body was far weaker than the one controlled by the Devil Blade Heart. Winning through his physical body was no longer possible.

The Life Sacrifice of this world? Even less possible.

There was only one path: win—live; lose—die!

But he, Luo Feng, had to win.

"If I, Luo Feng, were fighting only for myself, perhaps I would not be certain of victory. But for your sake, no matter what, I have to win this battle!"

Luo Feng murmured.

The next moment, he looked at the Devil Blade Heart. His body transformed into a streak of blade light and shot forward at incredible speed.

"Good!" the Devil Blade Heart snorted coldly.

It swung its blade as well.

Just as Luo Feng's strike was about to fall, his entire soul burst into flames. He gathered every last bit of Soul Power he could, and following his Soul Attack, Luo Feng's entire soul left his body. A sharp yet intangible force rushed into the Demon Blade's body.

The Devil Blade Heart's expression changed.

Yet Luo Feng's soul instantly entered its Demon Blade Heart.

Within the Demon Blade Heart was where its soul resided, but Luo Feng's soul appeared there as well. Luo Feng's soul radiated golden light, filled with determination. In an instant, it launched an attack at the soul within. The soul's defenses were torn apart immediately.

There, Luo Feng seemed to see a familiar figure—it was him! The Devil Blade Consciousness!

Luo Feng's soul charged directly toward that soul body, which was far larger than his own.

Describing the difference in size between the two souls as a snake swallowing an elephant would have been exaggerated, but a snake swallowing a tiger was quite fitting. Luo Feng's soul was clearly much smaller, yet he had no way back. There was only determination.

Luo Feng's soul violently plunged into the Demon Blade's soul body. The next moment, two powerful consciousnesses, wills, and Heart Spirit Powers began a fierce clash.

At this point, whoever lost would be doomed beyond redemption!

The Devil Blade Heart's consciousness fully controlled the Demon Blade's soul. Seeing Luo Feng's soul charging in, its expression changed completely. It had not expected Luo Feng to fight it head-on in such a manner, but it knew this truly was the best method—

If it had not left its body and were still within the blade intent space, it would not fear Luo Feng. It would even welcome Luo Feng attacking. But in this world, because it wanted to hunt Luo Feng this way, it had effectively drawn itself into the trap as well. Between it and Luo Feng, only this method could decide the battle.

Fair and just! This was a truly fair duel.

Seeing Luo Feng's mad, desperate appearance, the Devil Blade Heart was shaken. It immediately burned its entire soul body and struck at Luo Feng with its strongest power.

It refused to believe it.

Its soul body was far, far stronger than Luo Feng's. If it still could not defeat Luo Feng, that would only mean it was destined to lose.

It had set up the Lian Xin World as a chessboard precisely to devour Luo Feng more effectively. Even without a direct contest of raw strength, its soul body still held the advantage.

However, it was wrong.

Since this world was primarily about Lian Xin, the power to break the situation had to be Heart Spirit Power. Heart Spirit Power was a form of soul and willpower. It was mysterious, but it truly existed. What Luo Feng intended to do was use Heart Spirit Power to break the deadlock. Compared to the physical body, Luo Feng was at a disadvantage. Compared to souls, he was also at a disadvantage. Only in Heart Spirit Power should he and the Demon Blade be evenly matched.

And his heart was like a blade. The reason he had broken through every obstacle and reached this day was, invisibly, because this fearless Heart Spirit Power had guided him through thorns and brambles.

As Luo Feng's soul slammed into the Demon Blade's soul body, the light of his soul flared again. His entire soul body melted away, transforming into a strand of golden power. This strand was the power of Luo Feng's heart spirit body, as well as a special strand of Soul Power. It formed a golden needle of light and pierced directly into the Devil Blade Heart's soul body.

The next moment, guided by Luo Feng's Heart Spirit Power and carrying the Demon Blade's spiritual will with it, it was as though they had entered a mysterious space.

"No!" The Devil Blade Heart's will twisted viciously. It had not expected Luo Feng to go this mad.

The Devil Blade Heart's will had originally only been a part of Luo Feng's spiritual consciousness. Because of the differences in rules between Nine Nether Earth and Primordial Chaos Space, it had exploited a loophole in those rules to develop an independent consciousness. Outside the level of spiritual consciousness, it could be independent, but at the level of spiritual consciousness, Luo Feng was the master and it was subordinate.

Reaching this place meant it could no longer fight back. It could only be devoured by Luo Feng.

Its only hope was that Luo Feng's spiritual consciousness would not be strong enough to devour it, that Luo Feng would go mad, suffer a spiritual collapse, or have his will collapse during the process. As long as any one of those happened, it would win.

At this moment.

Within this mysterious space.

There were only the Heart Spirit Powers of the two of them. Luo Feng's heart was like a blade. This strand of power radiated terrifying sharpness and immense resilience. Before hardship, it was unstoppable.

The Devil Blade Heart was also in Luo Feng's form. It possessed the same sharp intent and was even accompanied by the power of rules, but as for resilience, that was another matter.

"Come on. This time, let us decide the victor!" Luo Feng took the initiative and charged forward. The next moment, the two forces directly fused and tangled together. He needed to devour the Devil Blade Heart's consciousness.

"Come! I was born beyond the rules. I am the true master of the Emperor Body! As long as you cannot withstand my power, you will die! With your current strength, you cannot devour me!" the Devil Blade Heart declared fiercely.

At this point, it had no way back either.

Although Luo Feng could minimize the gap between them at this stage, it still believed it held the advantage. Its spiritual will was no weaker than Luo Feng's. Luo Feng could not devour it.

The two forces collided and fused together.

What followed was a contest between their spiritual wills. Luo Feng and the Devil Blade Consciousness refused to yield to one another. They were almost evenly matched, their powers continuously crashing against each other. The illusory Luo Feng's eyes were savage as his power slowly gnawed away at the Devil Blade Heart's power, while the Devil Blade Heart resisted frantically.

At the same time, it released intense Will Impacts, utterly unwilling to be devoured by Luo Feng.

At this moment, Luo Feng discovered that in this clash, the Devil Blade Heart seemed to have lost the initiative. He began to make contact with its power, fusing with and assimilating it bit by bit. Yet during this fusion process, because the Demon Blade's power contained intense blade intent, his heart spirit body felt as though it were being shredded by countless blades. The pain was unbearable.

Even if he accelerated the process slightly, it seemed enough to make his entire heart spirit body explode and die. Once it exploded, his consciousness would likely disperse as well.

Could it be? Luo Feng suddenly thought of something. The process of controlling the Devil Blade Heart is the process of devouring and fusing with it. And now, by coincidence, I have reached this very step. Could this truly be the Will of the Heavens?

Luo Feng had always believed in his Emperor Luck. Perhaps this was a step he had been destined to take.

He felt incomparable pain and torment, but after enduring such impacts time and again, he seemed to have grown somewhat accustomed to them.

However, Luo Feng also knew that this step would be extremely difficult, at least even harder than merging with the Star Tower. Therefore, he could not rush. Devouring and fusing bit by bit was the safest method.

"You cannot devour me! I am the master of the Emperor Body!" The Devil Blade Heart's roars constantly echoed within Luo Feng's consciousness.

But Luo Feng paid it no heed. He continued to gnaw away at the Devil Blade Heart's spiritual energy bit by bit. The intense pain and the effects of the Will Impacts made the process incomparably slow. At this pace, Luo Feng had no idea how long it would take. It was even possible that it would take thousands of eras.

Time within the Lian Xin World passed somewhat faster than outside. That was good news as well.

Luo Feng devoured the Devil Blade Heart bit by bit.

As time passed, Luo Feng discovered that the influence of its will grew stronger, as did that power similar to blade intent.

Luo Feng wanted to stop for the moment and digest what he had already devoured.

But he suddenly shuddered. This process could not be stopped!

That meant his plan of devouring a portion and digesting a portion had failed completely. Moreover, if he could not withstand this power halfway through, his heart spirit consciousness body would collapse. Once his consciousness collapsed, it would mean his defeat. If he lost, the Demon Blade would succeed!

At this point, just as he had thought, he had absolutely no way back. He could only walk this path to the bitter end.

This situation was exactly like when he had fused with the Star Tower. Once it began, there was no retreat. As long as his heart spirit consciousness body was destroyed by the Demon Blade Heart's blade power, he would be finished.

"Since I cannot stop, then I will continue! As long as I slow down, I refuse to believe I cannot devour the Demon Blade." Luo Feng thought to himself. He immediately threw himself into it wholeheartedly, fusing bit by bit, enduring the pain, and transforming those powers into a part of himself.

Within his heart, the Devil Blade Heart's roars continued to echo. "Luo Feng, you cannot devour me. You will definitely die!"

"You are weak. You are unworthy of possessing my power."

"The reason your attainments in the Blade Dao have reached this point is entirely because of me. Trying to devour me means you are devouring your master. You will definitely pay the price."

"Damn it, damn it! You will definitely explode and die. Definitely!"

Endless roars rang out. Other than roaring, the Devil Blade Heart could do nothing else. Having reached this point, it was destined to become the passive one.

It roared all it wanted, but Luo Feng ignored it completely, continuing to devour and refine it slowly.
