Recalling this, Soul Devourer no longer strikes with a lethal move but suddenly opens its huge maw towards Chu Nan: "Chu Nan, your soul must be utterly delicious, become one with me!"
Soul Devourer is extremely decisive; upon realizing Chu Nan might be hiding a secret, it decides to act without weakening the opponent's soul, aiming to devour Chu Nan's soul.
Seeing Soul Devourer charge, Chu Nan is unsurprised.
Just like in Zhi Changgeng's Soul Space, Soul Devourer always has an intense obsession with powerful souls.
At this moment, it exerts full force, risking backlash, to swallow Chu Nan's soul.
But Chu Nan will not sit and wait for death. If Soul Devourer wants to devour him, why shouldn't he also want to swallow this extraordinary upper-grade soul of Soul Devourer?
As Soul Devourer charges, Chu Nan immediately unleashes his Celestial Soul Crossing Martial Skill, Soul Devourer!
The Sea of Consciousness roils, a giant maw like an enraged dragon bursts from beneath the surface, churning endless wind and rain, swallowing down towards Soul Devourer.
Seeing Chu Nan also possess the ability to devour souls, Soul Devourer is not surprised at all.
To elevate the soul to an extraordinary upper grade, the process is inevitably accompanied by devouring; trying to achieve this through cultivation alone is even more difficult than cultivating to the ninth layer of the Martial Arts Realm.
Their souls quickly clash mid-air.
Chu Nan drives his Soul Devourer, fiercely contending with Soul Devourer, as both martial artists intend to swallow each other's souls, yet are evenly matched, locked in a stalemate for a long time.
"Chu Nan, you are ultimately just at the Cloud Sea Realm, whereas my true form is a Saint-level soul, a level of experience you can never match. Today, you are destined to become my nourishment!"
Soul Devourer constantly speaks, trying to shake Chu Nan's confidence and mentality, giving it an opportunity to devour this delicious soul completely.
Yet Chu Nan remains unmoved, instead showing a mocking expression, saying: "I already swallowed one of your Split Souls earlier, how much stronger can you be now than it was?"
"Old guys like you should make way for the young."
The abyssal maw formed by Soul Devourer bites off a part of Soul Devourer's soul, causing it to grimace in pain and embarrassment.
It was used to devouring others, and now being devoured in turn, Soul Devourer is temporarily unaccustomed.
But with its primary focus on Soul Dao and rich experience, after they faced off for a stick of incense's time, the gray sky curtain surged, targeting Chu Nan's soul and causing Soul Devourer's power to contract.
"So strong!" Chu Nan can't help but exclaim, feeling immense pressure.
Even just a Split Soul of Soul Devourer made Chu Nan experience life-and-death crises. How strong would its true form be?
Yet Chu Nan is not worried. Seeing himself gradually suppressed by Soul Devourer, he glances at Zhi Changmei and Zhi Polang not far away!
If these two could awaken, along with Lu Yao, the people of the Desolate Ancient Holy Hall would be insignificant.
Bang!
The Blood Dao Cloud Sea unfurls, extending several hundred meters, even covering the entire Blood Array.
Seeing this, Soul Devourer laughs loudly, saying: "I thought you'd pull some trick, turns out it's just a dying struggle. What's the use of releasing the Cloud Sea at this time?"
"No matter your talent or the strength of your soul, it doesn't change the fact that you will be devoured by me!"
Listening to Soul Devourer's laughter, Chu Nan calmly says: "Who told you I was going to use the Cloud Sea against you?"
"The effect of that crazy awareness just now was pretty good, wanna try it again?"
At these words, Soul Devourer's mind instantly changes.
Chu Nan wastes no more words, immediately letting the Blood Dao Cloud Sea descend on Zhi Changmei and Zhi Polang.
The two, influenced by Soul Devourer, are already unconscious — this is Chu Nan's great opportunity to heal them.
Having sculpted the Second Heavens, Chu Nan has already transformed, being vastly different, the speed of healing naturally more efficient than before.
Thus he simultaneously resists Soul Devourer's devouring while healing Zhi Changmei and Zhi Polang.
Seeing this, Soul Devourer becomes anxious, desperately trying to find a way to stop it, yet Chu Nan had already prepared. Using the extraordinary upper-grade soul power to strictly guard against Soul Devourer, leaving it no chance to reverse the situation.
In the blink of an eye, half a cup of tea's time passes, and a frenzied blood-red aura gradually emerges from Zhi Changmei's body.
This force, upon its appearance, instantly causes the gray curtain to tremble, making Soul Devourer's face change drastically.
But this was not the end. Following closely, Zhi Polang erupts a mad demonic awareness as thick as a tree trunk from his body, biting a big hole in the gray curtain in just one shot.
Chu Nan chuckles softly: "Soul Devourer, the consciousness in the Demon Blood has been completely ignited by me, enjoy yourself."
The source of Demon Blood is the Blood-sucking Tree absorbing the essence of the Bloodline of the Weeping Blood Flood Dragon Python, forming the Demon Blood Fruit, which was finally consumed and refined by the Zhi Family Martial Artist.
This bloodline from the Weeping Blood Flood Dragon Python not only carries the formidable power of the Ancestral Bloodline but also harbors a frenzied will, unwilling to be trapped.
As the host's cultivation enhances, the Demon Blood grows stronger, so the mad demonic awareness also continuously grows.
Zhi Polang and Zhi Changmei are both Ninth Layer Cultivators. Their mad demonic awareness has grown to an incredibly terrifying degree.
Just appearing, it devours and rips apart large areas of the gray curtain, causing Soul Devourer's expression to become hideous and painful.
Under normal circumstances, Soul Devourer could naturally suppress this mad demonic awareness with ease, but with Chu Nan's interference, it can't seize an opportunity!
Soul Devourer can only continuously contract the gray curtain, attempting to drive the mad demonic awareness out of its soul.
Yet how could Chu Nan allow it to succeed, immediately mobilizing the Ancestral Bloodline to command the two mad demonic awarenesses to devour the third of the soul that Soul Devourer had just split off!
That soul currently imprisons the mad demonic awareness of hundreds of thousands of Zhi Family Martial Artists. Once these awarenesses are released, it would be like a flash flood bursting a dam, Soul Devourer would no longer be able to prevent it.
Seeing this, Soul Devourer becomes completely anxious, knowing that if it gets devoured by Chu Nan, Zhi Changmei and Zhi Polang will both regain consciousness, and the Desolate Ancient Holy Hall's plan will fail entirely.
"Chu Nan, I release you from the Zhi Family Secret Realm, I won't take the Nine Secret Changgeng Decision, how about we coexist peacefully?" Soul Devourer takes the initiative to concede to Chu Nan, having no other choice at this point.
Chu Nan remains silent, continuing to drive the mad demonic awareness to assault the third of the soul that Soul Devourer has separated.
All of Soul Devourer's soul shivers frantically. It uses a near-pleading tone: "Chu Nan, tell me what you want. As long as I can, after vanquishing the Zhi Family, I can represent the Desolate Ancient Holy Hall to negotiate with you."
"The Zhi Family's Demon Blood is extraordinarily crucial to the Desolate Ancient Holy Hall. Please don't act impulsively."
Chu Nan coldly sweeps a gaze over Soul Devourer, calmly stating: "What does the Desolate Ancient Holy Hall's business have to do with me? I only want what's obtainable at the moment, your promises are worthless to me."
"So Soul Devourer, just surrender and wait to be devoured completely by me."
As the words fall, the two mad demonic awarenesses from the Ninth Layer Cultivators fully breach Soul Devourer's blockade, tens of thousands of mad demonic awarenesses erupt in ecstasy-filled roars.
Like waterfalls flowing from the Ninth Heavens, they pour out all at once, unstoppable!
