Demon Taming: Start by synthesizing a Lantern Ghost with Divine and Demonic Talents

Chapter 224, Part 223: Lower-Rank Heavenly Gang Soul Dao Fruit
Once you enter the Heavenly Gang realm, you reach the end of the heavens, and from then on, the world will be completely different.

Things I didn't dare to do before, I'll do now.

The forbidden zones that we dared not cross before, we're going to wreak havoc on them now.

Li Chunfeng needed to hurry and replenish all the remaining undead servants.

Three hundred fifth-tier undead servants, each leading their legions, and tens of thousands of fourth-tier undead troops marched into the Bone Plains with great fanfare.

At the same time, Li Chunfeng stared at the attributes of the lamp for a long time.

He was somewhat worried about whether his fourth-tier strength could withstand the impact of two complete Heavenly Gang Divine Power Laws.

But there are some things that are simply impossible to resist.

With a major battle looming, Li Chunfeng finally began to give back to his family.

However, this time, Li Chunfeng will not seek to replenish his soul power from Randeng; he doesn't need that. Even sharing the Heavenly Gang Divine Power talent is already an immense blessing.

Immediately, he visualized a black lotus in his mind. A sixth-grade black lotus of the turbid world shone with a purplish-black pillar of light, as if it were isolated from the world and existed eternally.

Dense purple lightning appeared in the sky above the small inner world; these were all manifestations of the rules of the Soul Path.

The previously disjointed lines have become complete rules, like heavenly decrees, imposing divine might that cannot be disobeyed.

The phantom of the Soul-Devouring Beast reappeared, but this time the phantom looked somewhat unfamiliar to Li Chunfeng.

In the past, the long tail of this Soul-Devouring Beast would always disappear into the chaotic void, leaving no trace. But this time, its entire form was revealed.

Moreover, it has a title at the end, like an ouroboros.

This change made Li Chunfeng feel uneasy, unsure whether it was a good thing or a bad thing.

The source of the 'Soul Devouring' talent ultimately comes from that mysterious Soul Devouring Beast, and in the information he received from his inheritance, the Soul Devouring Beast was destroyed. But can a talent reaching the level of a god or demon truly be completely annihilated?

Could it be that it is waiting for an opportunity in some corner, waiting to return to the world?

Li Chunfeng would never have thought of it this way before, because he knew little and such thoughts would have been mere daydreams.

Now that his Soul Devouring talent has reached the Heavenly Gang level, the more he knows, the more unfathomable his intentions become. This matter concerns his future and destiny, forcing him to think deeply about it.

If this is a trap, then it's an open conspiracy. If there's an opportunity for further advancement, who wouldn't resist taking it?

That would undoubtedly be cutting off one's own path.

Unless one has great perseverance, one can find another way and start over.

As a flood of profound rules and mysteries rushed in, Li Chunfeng's vision went completely dark.

As the infinite mysteries of the Way of the Soul transformed into his own understanding, they also impacted his mind and spirit.

His Yin Spirit absorbed the power of the rules, becoming increasingly solid. Boundless primordial energy from the realm of death surged forth and was absorbed by the Yin Spirit. His soul and primordial energy embraced and merged, solidifying the core of his being, achieving a unity of form and spirit. Countless purple divine chains, resembling tree rings, were imprinted upon the Yin Spirit.

With each additional "annual ring," the Yin spirit grows to a new level.

In a daze, he transformed into a purple egg and appeared on the banks of a river of the underworld.

Since he gained consciousness, he has noticed that the sun overhead is pure black.

This is a place filled with flames and poisonous fog, extremely yin and evil energy. Even the rocks have a sulfurous color. Every day, towering consciousnesses rise into the sky and sweep across the Yellow Springs.

As a newborn, his consciousness was somewhat hazy until, on instinct, he absorbed a wandering remnant soul that came to his side. His consciousness gradually grew stronger, and he learned many things.

Even an egg is born and nurtured by nature, possessing its own unique qualities. While it may not be said to be born with innate knowledge, it is close enough.

He learned that the world he inhabited was a powerful demon realm. Countless unimaginably powerful beings fought and clashed in this world every day.

Fortunately, it was just an egg and wouldn't attract the attention of any demons.

He simply followed his instincts, absorbing every ghost that drifted to him, until one day, he absorbed enough energy and finally broke free from his cocoon.

He transformed into a pitch-black worm—the Soul-Eating Demon Worm.

Despite his extraordinary talent, he was almost the weakest being in this demon realm at birth.

Its insect body structure is very simple, yet it has unlimited potential for evolution.

Many powerful demons in the Demon Realm originally transformed from these magical beasts, and some of the top demons in the Demon Realm are even more completely transformed from magical beasts.

The Soul-Devouring Demon Worm floated silently in the void, clumsily moving its body, relying on instinct to absorb the nourishment of the Yin Souls in the Yellow Springs Yin River environment.

Even if countless demons passed by, not a single powerful demon would cast their gaze upon this tiny demonic insect, which was barely visible to the naked eye.

From that moment on, this tiny demonic worm began to wield its delicate tentacles. Initially clumsy, its dark consciousness quickly became adept, devouring one vengeful spirit after another. Thus began the long life of a demonic worm in the demon realm…

Until this Soul-Devouring Demon Worm underwent countless transformations, becoming increasingly powerful. At the same time, its survival instincts allowed the Soul-Devouring Demon Worm to deeply understand the essence of the art of survival, possessing excellent concealment abilities.

There would have been absolutely nothing wrong, but he grew too fast and became increasingly gluttonous. Before anyone knew it, he had devoured all the souls in the entire River of the Underworld.

The Yellow Springs River is an important place of reincarnation in any world, and the changes in the Yellow Springs finally attracted the attention of the powerful demons.

They joined forces for a large-scale search and finally managed to find the Soul-Eating Demon Worm.

After a fierce battle, he, who was initially terrified, actually won.

Now even more unstoppable, he devoured everything in his path, finishing off the Yin River before moving on to consume worlds. Countless powerful demons came to challenge him, but they all became his dessert.

The once-destroying Soul-Eating Demon Insect has now become the infamous Soul-Eating Beast.

Ultimately, the entire powerful demon realm perished because of him.

He roamed the void, and no world with life could escape his grasp. Worlds, large or small, were transformed into barren wastelands devoid of life after his visit. Battles were fought in vain.

He became synonymous with invincibility, a forbidden and terrifying existence. As he grew stronger, his consciousness became increasingly clouded, and he could only follow his instincts to devour everything each day.

But a sliver of clarity in his mind seemed to make him realize that he had been ambushed.

It was too late.

The time for Qingming Festival is getting shorter and shorter.

He couldn't go without eating anymore; the feeling of hunger was too unbearable. He just kept eating and eating.

Until one day, several towering figures appeared in the chaotic void. After a great battle, he encountered his true enemies. Each of these people was no weaker than him, and they joined forces to attack him. How shameless!

The more he fought, the less he became aware of himself, and the longer the periods of lucidity he experienced.

He also learned that these incredibly powerful beings had set up this scheme because they had their eyes on his talent in the Soul Dao.

He didn't want to go back to his muddled state, so he shattered his Dao Fruit and scattered his Soul Devouring Talent throughout the myriad realms.

Li Chunfeng's consciousness was also completely integrated into it, split into countless parts, and entered the cycle of reincarnation.

This kind of decline was something he couldn't bear.

Once they truly enter the cycle of reincarnation, their souls will suffer for countless lifetimes before finally vanishing forever.

He struggled internally, wanting to break free.

However, his consciousness was far too short and insignificant compared to the endless years of the Soul-Devouring Beast's consciousness.

"no!"

"Can't!"

"I must not enter the cycle of reincarnation!"

"I want to go back!"

"..."

"...Light the lamp!"

"Hey~"

Just when he was in dire straits, an affectionate call reached his soul.

"Om~"

At the crucial moment, a single candle flame ignited in the darkness. This flickering flame, like a dancing spark of life, was full of romance and mystery.

The candlelight was faint yet steadfast, carrying an ancient and intimate atmosphere that made him feel warm and close.

Warm candlelight is a kind of lighting that is emotional and tells a story. It is warm and soft, radiating a comforting power, and is so peaceful and serene.

This tiny, flickering flame, shining in the darkness, its shimmering light like delicate stardust dancing in the universe, brought endless radiance to the heavy darkness. Like an ancient lighthouse, it silently illuminated the lost path.

With its faint yet tenacious light, it broke through the darkness.

Li Chunfeng's consciousness finally began to focus, and he saw clearly that the candlelight was a lantern.

"not enough!"

I want light!

He said so.

And so, like sparks, the entire dark world began to be lit one after another, countless lanterns illuminating the entire Eternal Black Plain.

Li Chunfeng's fragmented consciousness returned completely.

His dragon lantern spirit race spirit pattern, which he had transformed using the 'Taiwan Transformation' technique, had been unknowingly broken. A writhing shadow appeared between his brows. This shadow kept changing its shape, filled with a dark and evil feeling, as if it would bring great destruction to the world if it flew out. However, this shadow remained bound to the area between his brows.

This is because the outer edge of the shadow is always shrouded in an elliptical halo.

The halo was like candlelight, like his third eye.

The shadows were locked firmly within the flames until they faded more and more.

Then the halo between his eyebrows closed, leaving only a barely perceptible vertical line that emitted a mysterious glow.

Li Chunfeng opened his eyes, and purple lightning flashed in them.

"so close!"

"Luckily, I also have the Heart Lamp talent!"

He will no longer engage in soul-path rebirth casually.

Unless he can completely control this Dao of Souls Dao Fruit.

Subsequently, the divine sense naturally expanded outwards, to four thousand zhang, five thousand zhang, six thousand zhang... up to nine thousand zhang, ten thousand zhang.

Li Chunfeng was shocked... This was the realm of the dead.

A divine sense of 10,000 zhang means that the limit of perception in the Earthly Realm is 100,000 zhang.

He now easily broke through the limit of Yin Spirit perception.

Not only that, but it wasn't until 11,000 zhang, 12,000 zhang... that it reached its limit at 30,000 zhang.

Having mastered the Heavenly Gang Soul Dao Divine Power, Li Chunfeng's spiritual power surged.

It has exceeded the limit of the Yin God Realm by three times.

This is a low-grade Heavenly Gang Divine Power, and its effect is equivalent to mastering a low-grade Heavenly Gang Soul Dao Fruit!
The claim that the limit of divine sense perception in the Yin God Realm of the Earthly Elemental Realm is 100,000 zhang is clearly a fallacy.

This is not the limit of one's realm, but the limit of human capability.

obviously.

None of the predecessors in the Earthly Realm were able to master a lower-level Heavenly Gang Soul Dao Fruit while still in the Yin God Realm.

As long as Li Chunfeng continues to strengthen the talent of Burning Lamp, this amplification effect will continue to increase.

Under the baptism of such powerful Soul Dao Fruit power, Li Chunfeng's Yin God had completely solidified. Countless purple Soul Dao chains, like halos, wove together from bottom to top into nine dazzling Soul Rings, imprinted on the Nebula Soul Robe of the Yin God.

Li Chunfeng's consciousness swept across the incomplete jade disc:
【The Black Lotus Sutra of a Turbid World - Fourth Level: Level 10 (Perfect)】

Characteristics: Nine returns and seven restorations, the Yin spirit returns to emptiness. After a lifespan of eight hundred years, the soul begins to decay.

This act of giving back has been incredibly beneficial.

The Yin Spirit realm, which originally required countless days of arduous cultivation, was thus easily and effortlessly perfected through cramming.

But such opportunities to give back are also extremely precious.

This is because it is a feedback from the 'Low-Grade Heavenly Divine Power - Soul Devouring'.

[Lighting the Lamp]: Mirror Abyss Level 3 (Tier 5)
Soul assimilation rate: 16% → 68%.

This feedback has even led to a 52% increase in assimilation, exceeding the safety threshold.

Even if Li Chunfeng later used rare and precious materials to suppress the assimilation rate again and provide feedback, it would be impossible to achieve the same effect as today.

Because this time, the soul power of the lamp was not absorbed.

Li Chunfeng's soul power remained at tens of millions, and the level of Burning Lamp had not dropped.

Reaching the pinnacle of the Yin Spirit Realm is, in itself, a shortcut to cultivation.

Li Chunfeng wasn't too surprised; it was all within his expectations.

The Yin spirit leaves the body.

He silently assessed his current state and discovered that the Yin Spirit was almost equivalent to a second body.

Every word he uttered carried immense pressure on the soul. Without needing to visualize, one could scan the surroundings with divine sense, receive the vitality of all kinds of life, return it to the soul, and obtain images as if seeing them with one's own eyes.

At this moment, the soul is separated, and with a thought, one can master endless Taoist arts. The physical body can also move and perform martial arts, without needing the Yin spirit to return to the body.

Even with the most basic telekinetic abilities, one can move objects weighing millions of kilograms.

Li Chunfeng's original two psychic runes, 'Psychic Shield' and 'Psychic Fist', which Randeng also possessed, had completely disappeared from his inner vision and were assimilated and devoured by the Soul Dao Law Chain.

The other three spells, 'Invisibility of Will', 'Battle Will Body', and 'Void Great Handprint', have also all received significant upgrades.

[Invisibility of Thought: Heavenly Rank (Perfect)]

[Battle Will Body: Heavenly Rank (Perfect)]

[Void Great Handprint: Heavenly Rank (Perfect)]

He can unleash a force of tens of millions of pounds when he uses the 'Heavenly Rank - Void Great Handprint'.

At this point, the Great Handprint technique has been completely perfected.

If anyone dares to attack him with a flying sword-like magical weapon in the future, he can capture the flying sword with just a wave of his hand.

He's so handsome!

Great Soul Devouring Technique!
