Chapter 2633: Controlling the Ancient Demon
The ancient demon's Storage Ring still contains some corpses—some of a Human Martial Cultivator, some of a ferocious beast, and some of the Demon Race.
There are also several huge weapons, clearly suited for this ancient demon to use.
The thing that interests Ye Liuyun most is a wolf-tooth club in the Storage Ring, forged from the ancient demon's leg bone, radiating obvious Demon Might, clearly of considerable power.
Ye Liuyun gathered the Primordial Power from the Storage Ring, and gave all other resources to the Giant Demon Tribe, letting them allocate it themselves.
And that wolf-tooth club, he gave to the stronger giant demon Hatu of the Giant Demon Tribe.
After Hatu received the wolf-tooth club from Ye Liuyun, he was overjoyed, repeatedly thanking Ye Liuyun.
He then immediately took the club and went to challenge the Clan Chief.
The Giant Demon Tribe values strength above all; whoever is strongest can become Clan Chief.
Ye Liuyun did not intervene in their conflict, and the result was unquestionable: Hatu became Clan Chief thanks to that wolf-tooth club.
So it is even more grateful to Ye Liuyun.
"Hey, you saw those resources, right?"
The ancient demon, seeing Ye Liuyun's lack of response, immediately urged.
"Yes, I did see them, but it's only this little! Someone of your caliber can't match that!"
Ye Liuyun remarked casually.
"Of course.
That's only a tiny fraction of what I've collected.
As long as you accept my inheritance, I will give you all the resources within my Space World."
The ancient demon continued.
"How many resources are left in your Space World? Tell me!"
Ye Liuyun asked further.
"At least ten times what's in the Storage Ring!"
The ancient demon said without hesitation.
"Hmm," Ye Liuyun said, nodding, and continued to ask the ancient demon how to accept his inheritance.
"This is simple.
After all, I cannot survive.
If you store my Soul in your Sea of Consciousness, refine my heart and core pill, that counts as accepting my inheritance.
We ancient demons are full of treasures; even our bones can be refined into weapons, and our flesh can boost your Demon Qi."
The ancient demon replied instantly.
"Then why don't you let me find some energy for you?
Why must you die?"
Ye Liuyun retorted.
Although still conversing with the ancient demon, Ye Liuyun no longer steps forward, remaining vigilant.
The ancient demon's resources truly piqued Ye Liuyun's interest.
Just one Storage Ring holds that many resources; its Space World must contain even more.
Yet Ye Liuyun does not wish to take the risk.
If danger seems present, he will withdraw immediately.
The ancient demon's words are riddled with strangeness; there must be some hidden agenda.
Moreover, his Golden Pupil also noticed the ancient demon's heart beating oddly; each contraction does not drive blood flow, as if it were a solitary heart.
And that ancient demon, if not for its ability to use Transmission Voice, its heart still beating, truly seems as good as dead.
When it does not emit aura, even its True Essence does not circulate.
"Alas! You don't know, I've refined my heart so intensely that even if I restore my True Essence, I cannot control it!"
The ancient demon sighed.
That remark made Ye Liuyun consider it plausible.
But how a ancient demon could cultivate to such a degree, he was also very curious.
So he kept chatting with the ancient demon: "How did you cultivate?
To the point that you can't even control yourself?
Now that I've refined it, how could I possibly control it?"
"That's different; I cannot re‑refine my own heart.
As long as you re‑refine it, you can control it.
Then you'll become stronger, able to slaughter all those who have bullied you, claim kingship and domination, do as you wish...' The Giant Demon Tribe brushed past the crucial issue, instead luring Ye Liuyun with benefits.
And Ye Liuyun kept observing the ancient demon with his Golden Pupil.
Suddenly he noticed the ancient demon's True Essence had diminished again.
During the communication, the ancient demon made no move that would consume True Essence.
Ye Liuyun stared, and suddenly a look of sudden enlightenment crossed his face, a smile appearing.
"Hum?
What are you laughing at?"
The ancient demon clearly was also watching Ye Liuyun's expression.
"I laugh at your heart; it must be a foreign tenant, right?
Has it occupied this ancient demon's corpse?"
Ye Liuyun asked while pulling the Hunting Falcon into the Space World, then walked straight toward the ancient demon's corpse.
He saw that the ancient demon's heart was drawing power from within the ancient demon's body.
And its beating had nothing to do with the body.
This shows the ancient demon had long been dead, and what was truly causing trouble was this heart.
As for the ancient demon's soul, it was more likely brought by this heart, rather than being the demon's own.
Although they looked very similar, Ye Liuyun still noticed the difference.
That ancient demon was also stumped by Ye Liuyun's question.
He paused for a moment, but seeing Ye Liuyun approach again, he steadied his emotions and asked Ye Liuyun: "How did you figure that out?"
Ye Liuyun didn't answer it, walked closer and asked: "Can you open the ancient demon's space world?"
"Give me the resources inside?"
The ancient demon then snorted: "Of course I can open it; I've fully controlled it, but you made me waste half a day talking, and you want to take the resources without giving anything in return?"
The ancient demon's tone changed immediately, apparently having gained confidence in dealing with Ye Liuyun.
Ye Liuyun instead waved his hand, releasing a wisp of toxin that struck the ancient demon's heart, then retorted: "Just with this?"
"Even if it can't kill you, it should be enough to wear you down, right?"
"How absurd, you dare poison me?"
At that moment, the ancient demon's soul suddenly leapt out of its sea of consciousness, rushed toward Ye Liuyun's sea of consciousness, and coldly laughed: "But it's already too late; your physical body and soul are mine!"
However, after it rushed into Ye Liuyun's sea of consciousness, the Ten Thousand Gods Command burst with golden light, directly enveloping it.
Its soul was instantly severed from the soul in the heart.
"Ah! What is this?"
The ancient demon's soul that had entered Ye Liuyun's sea of consciousness was also frightened.
Despite continual struggling, it could not escape the dissolution of the Ten Thousand Gods Command.
Ye Liuyun did not directly implant a slave seal on it, but let the Ten Thousand Gods Command first consume some of its soul power.
The ancient demon's soul also quickly shrank under the golden light consumption of the Ten Thousand Gods Command.
Ye Liuyun then immediately cast a spell on the ancient demon's heart, causing the Buddha Light Power to flare with golden light inside the heart.
His golden pupil could indeed confirm that it was truly a demon race's heart.
The ancient demon's heart could resist the toxin and draw on resources, but dealing with this golden light was very difficult for it.
"Stop quickly! What have you done to my soul?"
The remaining soul inside the ancient demon's heart could no longer bear it and cried out.
Ye Liuyun then smiled, drew the Demon Slaying Sword, and aimed it at the heart.
The ancient demon, feeling the power of the Demon Slaying Sword, also panicked completely.
