"No wonder, I was surprised and found it incredible when I merged with the Emperor Jar. In the end, I was just overthinking it!" Su Yu thought to himself, his grip on the Devouring Heaven Demon Jar tightening.
In the original timeline, the Devouring Heaven Demon Jar exploded, and all the primordial spirit light created the Ruthless One, Devouring Heaven Jar was no more in the world.
If that's the case, then the spirit within the jar, born from the heavenly tribulation, would naturally dissipate as well. This outcome left him somewhat saddened...
Chapter 472 Baptizing the Female Corpse, Entering the Ninth Level of the Jade Lake
The clear lake water rippled gently, and the misty air created a hazy atmosphere. Strands of light flowed and swirled around the man in the silver robe.
The willows along the riverbank Liu Yiyi, glistening with the morning dew, their fragrance refreshing, transforming everything into a picturesque scene.
Su Yu stood alone atop the Jade Lake, his eyes filled with countless purple lights, memories of the past, and wisps of melancholy.
From the moment he came into this world, the lid of the Devouring Heaven Jar had always been by his side.
It can be said that everything he has achieved today is based on this premise.
Su Yu had assumed that the spirit of the Demon Jar was the Ruthless One's primordial spirit, and he didn't care about the original ending.
But why is his heart clenching now?
"When did it start?"
The young man murmured to himself, the light of his soul shone forth, his bright eyes grew ever clearer, and his overall features became increasingly blurred.
The gray pottery jar in his hand trembled slightly, and countless primordial spirit imprints on it revived, overflowing with immortal radiance. The Ghost Face Mask on the jar was lifelike, as if it was about to shed tears, causing the Divine Child in the Immortal Source to turn pale and show fear.
The next moment, black light swirled and surged towards the Immortal Source. As soon as it approached, Immortal Qi immortal energy flew out from the Divine Child's body, and a rumbling sound emanated from within him, with the number of fragments of the Great Dao in his blood increasing many times over.
"How is this possible? This aura... the owner of this imperial artifact is still alive!" The Divine Child's heart pounded, his face turned deathly pale, filled with fear—a fear that stemmed from instinct, a fear of the Devouring Heaven Demon Jar.
Celestial radiance descended, and the glow of dawn pierced Eternal. Countless rays of divine light spread, Devouring Heaven Jar released its Immortal of the Foreign Realm celestial might. Strands of dark light overflowed, so intense that people could not open their eyes.
Su Yu's soul became ethereal, and in an instant, he lost his physical form. Meanwhile, the Emperor Jar in his hand shone even brighter, its body as graceful and lifelike as a human figure, as if it were Life and about to step out.
In the hazy mist, the silver-clad youth vanished, and a woman reappeared, her hair piled high, solemn and dignified. Her exquisite face was concealed by a bronze mask, and she held the Devouring Heaven Jar in her palm, from which streaks of dark light burst forth.
"Good heavens! This aura... how is this possible? How could there be such a person in this world..." The Divine Child trembled all over, staring at the scene in disbelief.
Millions of years have passed since his master disappeared, and now a figure of this caliber has appeared again in the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths. He is definitely still alive, struggling in this mortal world.
At this moment, the Chaos mist flowed, and the rushing river water gradually rippled. The beautiful woman stepped on the long river of history, shrouded in the Chaos mist. Her slender body remained still, with only her snow-white dress dancing with the gale. Her jet-black hair was naturally draped over her chest and back, like a waterfall. The three thousand laws trembled and swirled around her immortal body.
The woman's eyes flickered, her expression somewhat dazed, like a puppet. However, the next moment her aura changed, and she looked at the Divine Child with indifferent eyes, causing the latter to feel a chill in her heart and retreat incessantly, her face filled with fear.
"Fairy, don't eat me! I have a use!" the Little Fatty howled, truly feeling the threat of death.
The woman in white remained calm, blinking her clear, autumn-water-like eyes, which shimmered with celestial light, like twinkling stars, as she stared at the Order Divine Chains within the Divine Child's body...
The Little Fatty felt guilty and hurriedly backed away, almost in tears from nervousness. He lamented inwardly, wondering why he was so unlucky to encounter such a being the moment he appeared.
Just as he was preparing to use his backup plan.
"Sizzle!"
A soft sound swept by, as if the scene of light and shadow had been shattered. Countless raindrops of light fell, and that exquisitely beautiful and slender figure vanished, the River of Time itself turning to ashes.
Su Yu emerged from the rain of light, holding the Devouring Heaven Jar, somewhat lost in thought.
"Still not working? It's just a vague response, not enough to awaken the divine power of the Emperor Weapon like last time!" he murmured, somewhat regretfully.
Back in the Chaos Realm, Su Yu experienced a fusion of man and weapon, and felt the Emperor's Body for a fleeting moment. The feeling of reversing the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths and shattering all paths was wondrous...
This is a unique connection between him and the Devouring Heaven Demon Jar. Strictly speaking, the latter is not a simple weapon, but is essentially a Chaos Body at the Emperor Realm.
When Su Yu pushes the Indestructible Heavenly Art to its limit, he will form a subtle connection with the Devouring Heaven Jar. It is a connection that transcends the divine consciousness imprint, a resonance between two Chaos Body. This is also the premise for him to achieve the unity of man and weapon.
However, now that he has entered the Saint Realm, his primordial spirit power is far stronger than before, yet he still cannot awaken the spirit of the vessel. His desire to merge with the Emperor Artifact is nothing but empty talk; it's simply impossible...
After a moment of distraction, Su Yu suppressed his thoughts and was not discouraged. Just because he couldn't do it now didn't mean he couldn't do it in the future.
"He doesn't know?" Divine Child looked at Su Yu, who had a calm expression, with some disbelief.
Based on what he saw, this unfortunate fellow was likely to become the furnace for that Chaos Supreme, his future uncertain, and in the end, everything would contribute to the other party's Dao Fruit, unable to escape the path of demise.
This is by no means an exaggeration. The Mythological Era was full of unpredictable events, and there were many instances of predecessors seizing the Dao Fruit from their successors.
"What's wrong?" Noticing the Divine Child's gaze, Su Yu frowned slightly and asked.
"Ah..."
The Little Fatty collapsed in the Immortal Source, then hurriedly got up and said timidly, "It's nothing. I've lost the cauldron body now, and I can't withstand the aura of the Emperor Weapon."
"Is that so?" Su Yu shook his head, put the Devouring Heaven Demon Jar back into the Immortal Platform, and then extended a slender finger from his silver sleeve, slicing through the clear pool water and creating a passage out of thin air.
The young man in silver robes took a step forward, and the Dao patterns around him swirled, illuminating the waters. In an instant, he entered the lake and arrived at the bottom of the Jade Lake.
At the bottom of the lake lay countless corpses, a densely packed burial pit. Even a cursory glance revealed hundreds of bodies.
Su Yu had only taken the female corpse from the upper part of the water area; this place was protected by special laws and was not affected.
This is an extremely terrifying image of Hell; the lake is completely filled and piled up, which is quite horrifying.
Those lotus-like arms and those slender, jade-like legs still shimmered with a luster, but their bodies were stiff and showed no signs of Life.
All the women had disheveled hair, pale faces, and wore white linen clothes with the Jade Lake) mark on them. Their hair was like snakes, dancing wildly, which made one feel uneasy in the dark lake bottom.
With the protection of Emperor Weapon, Su Yu remained calm, his hands moving rapidly, his lips slightly parted, as he recited the " Deliverance Scripture." His entire being radiated countless blazing lights, making him resemble a divine sun.
One beam of light after another shot out, and auspicious colors continuously emanated from his mouth. Finally, sweet dew fell from the sky, and divine lotuses bloomed in the Void, golden and fragrant.
This place has become a sacred and pure land!
Every ancient character Su Yu uttered materialized, as if cast from metal, growing to the size of a mountain, flying towards the female corpses, and pressing down upon them.
These were acts of salvation, the ancient metal characters, as large as mountains, crushed the eternal Void, cleansing away all the yin energy of the human world. The gray mist melted like ice and snow, hissing and disappearing completely, instantly purifying this demonic land.
During this process, several female corpses of the Holy Lord of the Immortal Platform Second Heaven suddenly opened their eyes, shooting out terrifying light, and pounced on him.
These women transformed into Yin beings, losing their former memories; they were what mortals called corpse demons, possessing the combat power of Half-Step Great Power.
This existence was nothing to Su Yu, as he dispelled the Death Dao Law and absorbed it into the Devouring Dao Diagram.
With the " Myriad Spirits Scripture " from the Underworld and the legacy of Yanluo, Su Yu could easily build a Fengdu within his body and establish a boundless Ghost Kingdom!
Life and death, endless Lunhui, yin and yang give birth to all things. Now, his inner world only contains living beings, and is just missing some dead beings.
After all the female corpses were removed, the place returned to tranquility, quiet and empty, with nothing but the flowing spiritual spring.
In the center of Jade Lake is a spring from which the water of the Immortal Pool flows. Legend has it that the Immortal Tear Green Gold were found in this lake and were eventually cast into the Western Emperor Pagoda.
Before Jade Lake was moved, that imperial artifact was also imprisoned in this pool!
With a flick of his sleeve, Su Yu lifted several bluestone slabs from the bottom of the lake, causing the spring to suddenly expand into a deep, dark cave, large enough for a person to enter.
"Can we not go in?" The Divine Child was afraid, sensing a terrifying aura emanating from within, and felt a deep sense of awe.
Su Yu remained unmoved. He was not Ye Fan and had no interest in teasing a child. He went straight into the spring and plunged deep into the earth.
As one ventures deeper, the water becomes even sweeter, flowing with vital energy, brimming with divine radiance, and countless rays of light dance in the air, creating a sacred atmosphere.
This is an underground lake, not very large, and it contains many corpses, all of whom were highly skilled in cultivation and had beautiful faces. Among them is a female corpse Severing the Dao.
Su Yu stood quietly in place, the Taiyin Holy Power and the Taiyang Holy Power behind him merging into a black Taiyang, which floated behind him, radiating countless strands of immortal light, devouring everything and taking away all the female corpses.
This is a secret technique he created after his enlightenment, the Black Sun Technique. It integrates the Taiyin into the form of the Taiyang Divine Form, where true Yang contains extreme Yin, transforming into Chaos, making it extremely powerful!
These lakes are all high-level spiritual springs, extremely extraordinary, but they have been tainted by Yin Corpses for hundreds of thousands of years, and it is unknown what hidden dangers they may pose.
Su Yu thought for a moment, then sat cross-legged on the spot, circulating his profound magic. Behind him, the black sun Devour Heaven and Swallow Earth, drawing upon the laws of this place.
In an instant, the underground lake trembled, the water rose, and countless water vapors surged forth. Threads of dark, shadowy silk flew out from the spiritual spring, heading towards Su Yu, carrying an ominous aura that made one's heart tremble.
The Divine Child almost fainted. With his innate spiritual sense, he saw some Desolate Antiquity images: a being covered in golden hair made a move, and blood and death filled the Jade Lake, which was extremely terrifying.
Su Yu his mind and focused intently, ignoring everything else, and tried his best to draw upon the laws of death, attempting to purify the underground lake...
Finally, he devoured all the deathly aura in the area, and the black-haired youth took out a red jade gourd to collect the lake of spiritual liquid.
After doing all this, Su Yu stood up, his figure flashed, and he flew into the spring that led underground.
This spring is very deep, with each layer being a thousand feet deep. Su Yu went down seven thousand feet underground and saw seven layers of lakes, all of which were filled with corpses.
He repeated the process from the first layer, collecting all seven layers of spiritual liquid.
Upon reaching the eighth lake, the quality of the spiritual liquid here was exceptional, already possessing 50% of the effects of the forbidden zone's Divine Spring. Moreover, some sacred corpses had appeared here!
In the clear spring water, eight or nine corpses seemed to be swimming. They were all saints, and even two Great Saint. Their Divine Source were shattered all over the ground.
"The profound heritage of Jade Lake..."
Su Yu's eyes flickered slightly as he summoned the Devouring Heaven Demon Jar. The black Taiyang behind him reappeared, as he attempted to collect the sacred corpses.
However, this time a sudden change occurred. The two great Great Saint maiden corpses suddenly opened their eyes, their bodies shrouded in yin energy, with black hair and white dresses, their eyes glowing green, and flew towards him, exuding boundless murderous aura.
The other six sacred corpses also revived. They all became Yin spirits, no longer the former sages of Jade Lake, but new beings with cultivation levels ranging from Half-Saint to Saint, making them extremely terrifying.
"Roar..."
A deafening roar erupted as two beautiful Great Saint saints attacked. Their white dresses shimmered with a faint silver light, rivaling even the Saint King. The Yellow Springs surged forth, and terrifying howls echoed endlessly. Behind them, countless deathly energies flew out, turning this place into a demonic land!
These are spirits born from the corpse of a saint, which later transformed into Yin God. They are extremely terrifying, their gaze tearing through the Void. Even ordinary Saint are no match for them.
" Taiyin Finger!"
Su Yu's gaze was calm. He pointed out with one finger, and the universe collapsed, the stars shifted, countless spatial lines broke through the void, and tens of millions of energy sources converged. A jet-black finger flew out, and countless Void divine networks appeared, sealing this place!
These sacred corpses were momentarily immobilized, their path blocked by sealing magic. Only the two strongest silver spirits managed to escape.
" Taiyin Palm!"
Su Yu reached out and slapped his hand, unleashing a torrent of Chaos divine power. A gigantic purple-patterned hand materialized and immediately pinned down the two Yin spirits!
The Great Saint Sage's corpse was suppressed, her beautiful face now grotesquely contorted, her eyes filled with murderous intent. Yet, the purple handprint pressed firmly against them, rendering their resistance futile!
"Seal up!"
Su Yu gave a soft shout, and the Chaos Dao Diagram in front of him fluttered. Various sounds, such as chanting and the weeping of ghosts and gods, intertwined, making the place noisy. Yin and life energy coexisted and transformed into the flow of Yin and Yang energies.
The eight sacred corpses trembled, the green light in their eyes faded, and the fierce aura on their bodies gradually dissipated, as the " Deliverance Scripture " washed away their ominousness and killing intent.
After the strands of black Dao lines were peeled away, these female saint spirits returned to tranquility, their eyes glazed over, staring blankly at Su Yu.
Compared to normal people, their aura is very cold, like blocks of ancient Zhen Ice, radiating a chilling aura.
Su Yu had a solemn and dignified appearance, with three strands of Immortal Qi intertwined around him, making him look like an Immortal of the Foreign Realm deity.
