Chapter 786: Searching for the Truth of Immortality
Ye Lin's urging woke the Extinction Demon Venerable's remnant soul from his daze.
He looked at Ye Lin in disbelief.
"Why? I clearly just possessed you and wiped out your soul!"
"I don't know either; you should keep trying—maybe you'll succeed if you possess me a couple more times?" Ye Lin coaxed him.
The Extinction Demon Venerable's remnant soul was somewhat unwilling to believe it.
He was currently just a fragmented soul body and couldn't support excessive thinking.
Thus, he rushed into Ye Lin's body again, wiped out Ye Lin's soul, and possessed him.
This time, after the possession was complete, the Extinction Demon Venerable immediately formed seals to cast a divine ability, directly sealing this physical body to prevent any further mishaps.
Demonic Qi raged, forming chains that bound Ye Lin's body layer by layer, sealing all his power.
But it was useless; not long after the possession was complete, the body began to decompose and dissipate again, turning into fly ash and disappearing.
"How is this possible?"
The Extinction Demon Venerable's remnant soul was getting anxious.
If he weren't a remnant soul but a complete Primordial Spirit, he would certainly know what was happening.
But he only had a remnant soul, and even his past memories were incomplete.
Seeing Ye Lin appear before him again, lively and energetic, the Extinction Demon Venerable didn't even wait for Ye Lin to speak before rushing over himself.
After possessing Ye Lin again, this time the Extinction Demon Venerable actively released heaven-shaking Demonic Qi that soared into the sky!
In an instant, it was as if a pair of Heavenly Dao eyes had opened in this cold and gloomy space, coldly staring at the Extinction Demon Venerable's remnant soul.
Chains of order and law symbols intertwined, forming an immortal cage capable of suppressing the heavens and worlds, descending upon the Extinction Demon Venerable!
This was the sealing array jointly set up by the seven Supreme-level powerhouses of the Long-Life Continent back then, specifically to prevent the Extinction Demon Venerable's remnant soul from causing trouble.
Immortal swords appeared one after another, erupting with biting, heaven-shaking killing intent!
The Extinction Demon Venerable's remnant soul was actually trying to use the seal here to suppress Ye Lin's physical body!
Once this sealing array was activated, even the Extinction Demon Venerable's remnant soul would have to obediently surrender, let alone Ye Lin, a Cave-Abyss Realm cultivator.
This behavior was essentially no different from using a missile to blow up a mosquito.
Yet, even this plan, which seemed foolproof, still couldn't stop Ye Lin's body from turning into fly ash.
After all, the Disintegration Great Art skill, to put it bluntly, was just not wanting to live anymore.
No matter how powerful your strength is, you cannot stop someone who is determined to seek death.
After the sealing array was activated, only the Extinction Demon Venerable's own remnant soul was sealed in place.
The immortal swords turned into red rainbows, piercing toward the Extinction Demon Venerable with heaven-shaking killing intent, and countless chains of order pierced through his remnant soul, as if to punish him for his dishonesty.
"Ah!!!"
Under this terrifying array, the Extinction Demon Venerable's remnant soul let out an extremely painful scream.
It wasn't until the Extinction Demon Venerable's remnant soul fell back to the ground that the immortal swords disappeared and the sealing array hid itself once more.
After being hit by the sealing array like that, the Extinction Demon Venerable's remnant soul was a bit weaker.
But when he saw Ye Lin, who was lively and energetic on the side, his eyes instantly turned red.
"Why are you still fine?"
The Extinction Demon Venerable couldn't understand how there could be someone in this world who couldn't be killed.
Although he knew some divine abilities could allow people to be resurrected, such as the Nirvana divine ability of the Immortal Phoenix, Ye Lin clearly hadn't used any divine abilities or techniques just now.
It was as if... rebirth after death was more like an instinct for him.
After being beaten up by the sealing array, the Extinction Demon Venerable's remnant soul gradually calmed down.
"There is the power of laws within your body?!"
After excluding all impossible situations, the remaining one, no matter how unbelievable, must be the truth.
Although it was very unbelievable that a Cave-Abyss Realm cultivator possessed the power of laws.
But at this point, only the existence of the power of laws could explain why Ye Lin could die and be reborn again and again.
"Don't worry about these trivial things; hurry up, come and possess me! Don't pity me just because I'm a delicate flower; hurry up!"
Ye Lin swayed his waist lightly, looking at the Extinction Demon Venerable's remnant soul with spring-filled eyes.
"Do you actually think the power of laws can really keep you from dying?"
The Extinction Demon Venerable sneered; knowing that Ye Lin relied on the power of laws to be reborn, his expression also calmed down a lot.
People often involuntarily feel fear toward unknown things, but when everything is laid out on the table, fear ceases to exist.
"If this Venerable hasn't guessed wrong, the power of laws in your body should be the Law of Life—the source of life, the root of all things; bringing the dead back to life and regrowing flesh and bones is but a single thought away."
Having said that, the Extinction Demon Venerable revealed a cold sneer.
"Heh, I really didn't expect that someone would actually go and comprehend and cultivate such trashy laws."
The Law of Life looks very powerful, capable of infinite regeneration, equivalent to having an immortal body.
But the premise for all this is that the enemies encountered have never mastered the power of laws.
Once encountering an enemy who also possesses the power of laws, the Law of Life appears very stupid.
After all, this law has absolutely no lethality; its only function is to allow rebirth, making one completely a moving punching bag, with the only result being slowly ground to death.
As for combining it with forbidden techniques, that's even more ridiculous; the principle of forbidden techniques is to make heaven and earth elements fall into a frenzy, thereby erupting with huge power.
However, no matter how much a lightning-type forbidden spell erupts, its power is hard to compare to a cultivator who controls the Law of Lightning.
This is also why the Law of Life is regarded as trash.
Knowing the oddity of Ye Lin, the Extinction Demon Venerable's remnant soul completely set his mind at ease.
"A mere Cave-Abyss Realm cultivator—I want to see how many times you can use the power of laws to allow yourself to be reborn!"
This time, the Extinction Demon Venerable's remnant soul didn't choose to continue possessing Ye Lin, but raised a finger and pointed it at Ye Lin.
At the same time, the Extinction Demon Venerable's remains also raised a finger.
A domineering and peerless power bloomed from the fingertip of the remains, and the terrifying pressure made Ye Lin unable to stand steady.
A wisp of killing intent caused various terrifying visions to appear in the surroundings.
This was the killing intent from a Supreme-level powerhouse; without an Emperor, the Supreme is invincible!
A terrifying Demonic Qi turned into a black vortex, directly swallowing Ye Lin's body and soul together.
This black vortex was like a flesh-and-blood millstone, grinding Ye Lin's bones and flesh into annihilation and his soul into fragments, turning him into blood mist and powder in an instant.
Ye Lin had just been reborn when he was wiped out by the black vortex again.
Ye Lin really didn't expect that there was such a quick way to pass the Life-and-Death Tribulation.
This is simply exploiting a bug!
To prevent the Extinction Demon Venerable from seeing through the clues and stopping his attacks, Ye Lin began to let out shrill screams, cursing the other party over and over.
"Ah!!!"
"Extinction Demon Venerable, you damn guy, you've been dead for so long, why do you still have to come and harm me!"
"You're not human! You covet my body, you're despicable!"
"Don't let me catch an opportunity; if I catch an opportunity, I must make you coil your hair up!"
"Someone help, can anyone save me? I'm willing to offer a pair of white socks that a girl has worn for three days without washing as a reward—the crusty version, first come, first served!" ===== CHAPTER 787 =====
