Chapter 1597: Defeated! Better to Enslave Her!

"Then let me see how far you can force me to push my power!"

Xu Jingming's monstrous demonic body surged forward again, locking blades with Lin Yin.

In an instant, the entire valley's sky.

Demonic qi and thunder raged wildly, tearing jagged fissures across the azure heavens.

In Lin Yin's hands, the demonic whip whirled like a venomous dragon.

Each lash unleashed a shrill, wailing scream, as if ready to devour all life!

Yet Xu Jingming's spear was faster!

"Lightning Extreme Thrust!"

Xu Jingming growled low, the Ninefold Lei Yu Spear transforming into a thousand pitch-black afterimages!

Each afterimage was a terrifying thrust infused with annihilating divine thunder.

The piercing, light-swallowing gleam at the spear's tip merged into a continuous torrent, like a downpour of needles!

Clang-clang-clang-clang—!!!!

The clashing of metal rang like rain, sparks exploding everywhere!

Lin Yin barely parried with her long whip, her body steadily retreating!

But this wasn't over!

"Killing Domain, activate!"

Xu Jingming's will shifted, and his dark crimson, nearly black killing aura erupted violently!

Hum—!!!!

Within a hundred-kilometer radius, the land instantly became a sea of corpses and blood!

Thick, solidified killing aura filled every inch of space, as if countless tormented souls wailed and shrieked!

Lin Yin's movements froze, her speed reduced by thirty percent!

"Destruction Origin! Thunder Origin! Dual Enhancement!"

Xu Jingming's eyes blazed with lightning, his body wreathed in pitch-black thunder and dark crimson killing aura, perfectly fused!

The spear's momentum shifted again!

"Annihilation Lianhuan Lei Qiang!"

As he thrust, the piercing gleam at the spear's tip suddenly swelled!

The two origins—Destruction and Thunder—twined and entwined, forming a black thunder column one meter in diameter, piercing through space!

Where it passed, space shattered inch by inch, the laws of nature screamed in agony!

Annihilation Lianhuan Lei Qiang!

T2-tier spear combat technique!

During the three months he trained Lin Qianxue, he learned this technique in the Virtual Universe.

It had been leveled to Perfect proficiency—its power was utterly terrifying!

"No good!"

Lin Yin's face paled, her violet eyes flashing with horror!

She frantically pushed her demonic qi, whipping the long chain back to form a purple-black vortex shield before her!

Boom—!!!!

The thunder column slammed into the vortex shield!

With a deafening roar, countless spiderweb cracks instantly spread across the shield's surface!

Lin Yin's slender body shuddered violently, spewing forth a stream of purple-black blood as she was blasted hundreds of meters backward!

"Yes! That's it! Hit her hard!"

Inside his consciousness sea,

the demon girl Vila waved her tiny fists excitedly, her large purple eyes blazing with intensity!

She stared fixedly at Lin Yin's face, which bore seven-tenths resemblance to the Illusion Demon Sovereign.

As if facing not a princess, but the traitor who had betrayed her!

"Damn it! How can he be this strong?!"

Lin Yin steadied herself, roaring inside her heart!

She was the Illusion Demon Clan's princess!

Her veins flowed with ancestral, primordial blood!

Among the younger generation of demons, few could surpass her!

Yet this human...

To think he could suppress himself so completely!

"When did humans produce a monster like this?!"

Lin Yin clenched her silver teeth, a flicker of resolve flashing in her violet eyes.

No more holding back!

"Base human, this ends now! Demon Flame Scorching Heaven!"

A cold, haughty snort rang out as the intricate purple demonic rune on her forehead blazed with blinding light!

Demon Flame Scorching Heaven!

Her core-secret technique!

Once unleashed, it would consume over half her total primordial energy.

Boom—!!!!

Vast torrents of demonic energy erupted from her body, instantly transforming into an ocean of demonic flames!

The flames glowed dark purple, leaping as if countless demonic phantoms screamed within them!

More terrifying still, the flame's primal essence and the essence of destruction within it had both reached perfection!

With dual perfected essences amplifying it, the demonic flames surged tenfold in power!

The temperature of the entire valley skyrocketed; rocks melted, the earth cracked open!

The air warped and twisted from the heat, as if even space itself were about to be burned to ash!

"Oh? Finally serious?"

Xu Jingming raised his sword-like brows; his eyes held no fear, only intensified battle lust.

With a flick of his will, the Twin Demons' bloodline within him erupted into a furious boil!

"Twin Avatar!"

As he growled, a figure identical to Xu Jingming's own body split away from his side!

Same monstrous demonic form, four meters two tall; same writhing black thunder and dark red killing aura!

Even the weapon in its grip was another black spear forged from Annihilation Divine Thunder!

"What?!"

Lin Yin's pupils shrank sharply!

She had seen many avatar techniques, but never one with identical aura and power.

As if two independent beings...

Utterly unheard of!

It was like the demon race's top bloodline—Twin Demons!

"Killing Domain!"

The demonic avatar appeared, instantly unleashing its own Killing Domain!

Hum—!!!

The two Killing Domains slammed together in an overlap!

The killing aura, already thick as solid matter, now grew so dense it nearly solidified!

Lin Yin felt her entire body grow heavy; her movements slowed another fifty percent!

Even the towering demonic flames around her were suppressed, flickering wildly, their power greatly diminished!

"Twin Demons! You can even use the Twin Demons' avatar technique?!"

Vera nearly burst her eyes out in her consciousness.

During her time with Xu Jingming, she had never seen this technique before!

Xu Jingming said nothing.

Previous opponents were too weak—this avatar technique was unnecessary.

"Lei Yu!"

Xu Jingming and his avatar both raised their hands, fingers curling inward!

Crackling—!!!

Vast torrents of black thunder rained down from the heavens!

Weaving into a thunderous cage one hundred meters in diameter, trapping Lin Yin firmly at its center!

Each Lei Zhu was as thick as a water barrel, its surface swirling with patterns of the Destruction Essence!

The instant the prison formed, the space within froze completely!

"What?!" Lin Yin cried out in shock.

She found she couldn't move even a single finger!

Thunder roared, and the terrifying demonic flames she had relied upon were extinguished by the lightning.

"It's over." Xu Jingming's low, demon-god-like voice echoed.

This was the terrifying suppression of dual-perfected Killing Domain and Annihilation Divine Thunder.

Too weak to even have the right to move.

His main body slowly raised the spear, its tip gathering a glint of cold light.

Just as he was about to thrust—

"Wait!"

In his consciousness, Vera suddenly spoke, her voice urgent:

"Don't kill her yet!"

Xu Jingming paused his motion.

"I've changed my mind."

Vera's purple eyes gleamed with cunning:

"Killing her outright is boring. Better to enslave her!"

A look of vengeful satisfaction surfaced on her small face:

"This princess possesses ancestral ancient demon bloodline—she must be the most prideful offspring of that bitch, Huan Mo!"

Imagine if one day she learned her own daughter had become someone else's slave..."

Vera chuckled darkly, her peach-heart tail swishing excitedly:

"That expression would be priceless!"

Besides, aren't you after my inheritance?

Enslave Lin Yin, and you'll have an inside contact if you ever venture into demon territory in the future.

"Oh?"

Xu Jingming raised his sword-like brows, then nodded and said, "Fine."

The legacy of an Indestructible Dominator is truly not to be missed.

And killing Lin Yin would yield ten million Source Points.

It's completely unmatched by the potential gains from enslavement.
