Arc 34The Devouring Method
Great Emperor Meng Yu defeated the King of Immortality but was swallowed by Dark Living Beings during the Great Dark Brawl. Lin Yu then uploaded a ranking of cultivation techniques, revealing the Devouring Method and prompting cultivators across worlds to seek, imitate, or debate it as they anticipated stronger entries and possible contact between realms.
- Great Emperor Meng Yu completed his transformation, overcame the King of Immortality, and killed him, but Dark Living Beings surged into the Perfect Immortal Realm and swallowed Meng Yu.
- After Meng Yu vanished into the nine heavens with the pursuing Dark Living Beings, Lin Yu registered as a video creator and uploaded a ranking of the ten greatest cultivation techniques.
- The ranking began with the Empyrean Reincarnation Method in tenth place, whose six black holes and destructive power awed viewers across worlds.
- The video showed a cultivator absorbing power from piles of corpses, leading viewers to fear the art might target their races before it revealed the technique as the Devouring Method, ranked ninth.
- The video explained that the mortal Devouring Great Emperor had created the method to absorb others’ spiritual power, physiques, and bloodlines, prompting debate over its dangers and appeal.
- The Yao Clan empress and the demon beast king considered how the method could use their many corpses, while the demon beast king ordered a subordinate to pursue or recreate it.
- Heavenly Venerable Yuanshi decided to develop a similar method for the Immortal Realm, while Empyrean Immortal Venerable obtained fragments and concluded the Devouring Method alone had not made Great Emperor Ruthless powerful.
- The Jade Water Pavilion’s ancestor admired Ruthless’s path from mortality to power and hoped to meet her when travel between the Immortal Realms became possible.
