Chapter 755: The Extinction Demon Venerable

Hearing the words "Demon Venerable inheritance," Ye Lin narrowed his eyes slightly.

The inheritance of a Supreme-level powerhouse would likely make even an Emperor-lineage Immortal Sect covet it.

"Then tell me, if it interests me, sparing your life is not out of the question. I can swear a Dao oath," Ye Lin said.

Venerable Xuanhai fell silent.

How could he still trust Ye Lin's Dao oath now? This guy had just sworn a Dao oath earlier, and didn't he turn out perfectly fine?

But besides a Dao oath, what else could constrain a cultivator?

It seemed... there really was nothing else.

This was the reason for Venerable Xuanhai's silence; he truly could not think of any good way to ensure Ye Lin would not kill him afterward.

Venerable Xuanhai had never imagined that one day he would find a Dao oath to be so pale and powerless.

"It's fine, organize your thoughts first; I need to strike while it's hot."

Ye Lin took the initiative and walked toward the corpses of the Four Great Evildoers.

It was true that Endless Devouring could consume the power of others, but once a cultivator died, the power contained within their body would begin to dissipate at an extremely rapid rate.

Ye Lin had experimented on others before.

For cultivators of the same realm, the power contained in their bodies differed by nearly double between just having died and one hour after death.

The Heart Demon assembly line began its work. Under Venerable Xuanhai's terrified gaze, the Four Great Evildoers were devoured and refined bit by bit, disappearing without a trace.

And Ye Lin's realm broke through once again, reaching the mid-stage of the Primordial Origin Realm.

Sensing the aura of that recent breakthrough on Ye Lin, the soul fire in Venerable Xuanhai's eye sockets flickered constantly, clearly showing his terror.

This guy was actually refining the corpses of other cultivators to improve his strength!

Such behavior, even among evil cultivators, belonged to the most inhuman category.

"Have you finished organizing your thoughts?"

Having eaten his fill, Ye Lin walked back toward Venerable Xuanhai.

Venerable Xuanhai took a deep breath.

"I know that no matter what method I use, there is no way to constrain you, but... I really want to live! Even if it means being your dog, I really want to live! I don't want to die!"

"I only beg you, spare my life!"

Venerable Xuanhai had pondered for a long time but could think of no other way; he could only hope to move Ye Lin with his sincere heart.

After speaking, Venerable Xuanhai handed that piece of the Demon Venerable's remains to Ye Lin.

The finger bone was warm and smooth, even possessing a faint trace of body heat.

"This finger bone comes from the number one person of the demonic path in the current age, the Extinction Demon Venerable! He is also the only demonic powerhouse to have stepped into the Supreme Realm in the last ten thousand years!"

"But because he killed too many, slaughtering millions of living beings, not long after the Extinction Demon Venerable stepped into the Supreme level, he was hunted down by the righteous path."

"Old monsters from several Emperor-lineage Immortal Sects appeared—seven Supreme Realm experts besieged the Extinction Demon Venerable alone. That battle was fought until the sky turned dark, and even the phenomenon of Heaven Weeping appeared!"

"After struggling to slay two old monsters, the Extinction Demon Venerable could no longer hold on; after all, he was facing seven powerhouses of the same realm."

"But at the final moment of his life, the Extinction Demon Venerable chose to die standing. He detonated himself, taking another old monster with him."

"This hunting operation against the Extinction Demon Venerable finally succeeded in killing him at the cost of the fall of three Supreme Realm old monsters."

"Since then, a rumor has circulated on the Longevity Continent: it is said that whoever obtains the remains of the Extinction Demon Venerable and goes to the place where he fell will have a chance to obtain the Extinction Demon Venerable's inheritance!"

"And the place where the Extinction Demon Venerable fell is right here in the Eastern Profound Domain!"

After listening, Ye Lin wore a thoughtful expression.

He had originally intended to use Endless Devouring to consume this finger bone directly.

But if there was a chance to obtain the inheritance of a Supreme Realm powerhouse, the boost in realm the finger bone provided was somewhat insignificant.

After all, killing others could also raise his realm; he didn't necessarily have to consume this finger bone.

But a Supreme Realm inheritance was not so easy to come by.

The Joyous Union Sect and the Immortal Cloud Sect combined couldn't even find a single Supreme Realm powerhouse.

An existence of this level, let alone in the Eastern Profound Domain, would be a top-tier figure across the entire Longevity Continent.

A living Supreme would be treated as an honored guest even by Emperor-lineage Immortal Sects that had produced Great Emperors.

In an age without Emperors, a Supreme could be called the strongest combat power on the Longevity Continent.

"Where exactly in the Eastern Profound Domain?" Ye Lin pressed.

"I don't know..."

Venerable Xuanhai wore a bitter expression.

If he knew where it was, he would have gone himself; why would he be hiding this finger bone?

"Anything else to say?" Ye Lin asked.

"Nothing, I have told you everything I know." Venerable Xuanhai shook his head.

"Alright, then answer one last question for me. If you get it right, you can go," Ye Lin said, waving his hand.

"If I answer correctly, you will... not kill me?" The blue soul fire in Venerable Xuanhai's eye sockets began to jump incessantly.

"Seeing as you want to live so badly, my conscience would feel bad if I didn't give you a chance."

Ye Lin coughed a few times to clear his throat.

"Listen well to my question: what is the antonym of 'farting'?"

"The antonym of 'farting'?"

The blue soul fire in Venerable Xuanhai's eye sockets burned fiercely as he tried hard to think.

After pondering repeatedly, he finally came up with a relatively reasonable answer.

"Inhaling! The antonym of farting is inhaling!"

"Wrong, the antonym of 'farting' is 'thank you'."

Ye Lin raised his hand.

"You answered wrong; you're useless even when given a chance."

Accompanied by Venerable Xuanhai's shrill screams, the last evil cultivator was finally put to death!

Ye Lin was at the early stage of the Yin-Yang Realm when he arrived, and at the mid-stage of the Primordial Origin Realm when he left.

This was why he loved evil cultivators.

After killing Venerable Xuanhai, Ye Lin set up the Red Refining Heart-Burning Spirit-Extinguishing Array within the Profound Heaven Blood Divination Array, thoroughly refining this entire area.

After all, evil cultivators had many strange and devious methods; who knew if someone was hiding quietly, just waiting for him to leave?

As the Red Refining Heart-Burning Spirit-Extinguishing Array activated, a red pillar of light shone, and scarlet flames emerged continuously!

The fire of Red Refining Heart-Burning extinguished all living things within this territory.

It was a good thing he burned it; this burning actually forced out a few more evil cultivators who were skilled in breath-concealment techniques and had been hiding.

"Truly naturally evil little evil cultivator brats!"

Ye Lin's gaze was solemn; if he weren't a cautious person, he really would have been deceived by these people.

After using the Red Refining Heart-Burning Spirit-Extinguishing Array, Ye Lin set up several more indiscriminate area-refining arrays, refining this place several more times.

In this ground, even if there were paramecia, they would have been refined to death.

After doing all this, Ye Lin finally breathed a sigh of relief.

He had even used the Human Emperor Flag; naturally, not a single living soul could be left from today's events.

Didn't you hear Venerable Xuanhai? The Extinction Demon Venerable was besieged by seven Supremes just for killing millions of living beings; if his Human Emperor Flag were revealed in front of others, wouldn't he become the public enemy of the Longevity Continent?
