Chapter 575: Chapter 44: Undying Soul of God and Demon

“I don’t want to die! I don’t want to die!”

Someone screamed in terror, the twelve pitch-black stone gates were simply too terrifying and too bizarre.

How formidable was that Demon Dao Expert’s cultivation? Yet he met a grisly death inside, naturally instilling fear in the others.

“Ancient Dragon Elephant Technique.”

Lin Feng activated the Ancient Dragon Elephant Technique in an effort to counter the horrific power of devouring emanating from the twelve pitch-black stone gates.

His speed towards the twelve pitch-black gateways slowed down a bit.

Yet, he still couldn’t escape the devouring grasp of the twelve pitch-black gateways.

The second gate quickly devoured one of Woh Qingqing’s subordinates.

“Ah!”

Following that, a piercing scream of agony came from the second gateway.

“No, I don’t want to die.”

The cultivator inside started wailing.

“What on earth is in there?” Someone roared loudly, their face twisted in panic.

The unknown is the most terrifying.

Just like now.

Many were on the verge of collapsing.

Even Lin Feng’s face was extremely pale; the twelve pitch-black gateways were indeed dreadful.

Lin Feng was enveloped by the twelfth stone gate.

His body struggled to withstand the devouring power of the twelfth pitch-black stone gate and was quickly flying towards it.

…

One after another, the cultivators were devoured by these stone gates.

Woh Qingqing flew towards the eleventh stone gate.

Meanwhile, Pei Zihui flew towards the tenth stone gate.

Only the three of them remained undevoured.

“Let’s all enter the eleventh stone gate, if something terrible happens, at least we can look out for each other.”

Woh Qingqing called out, her face pale.

“Alright.”

Lin Feng and Pei Zihui both nodded.

Although Lin Feng had always been wary of Woh Qingqing and Pei Zihui, obviously, this was not the time for mutual suspicion. The correct choice was to overcome the immediate crisis first.

…

As the three approached the stone gates, Lin Feng and Pei Zihui both struggled to break free from the devouring pull of the gates, trying to enter the eleventh stone gate, but it was obviously not an easy task.

Pei Zihui was the first to falter, devoured by the tenth stone gate, and soon screamed in agony.

Then the tenth stone gate thundered shut on its own.

Woh Qingqing was devoured by the eleventh stone gate.

Soon, Woh Qingqing too let out a painful scream.

“What on earth is in these stone gates?” Lin Feng’s expression was grim.

He was about to be devoured by the twelfth stone gate.

Crack!

In this moment of extreme danger, Lin Feng grabbed the intersection between the eleventh and second stone gates and then rushed into the eleventh stone gate.

A thunderous boom sounded out as Lin Feng entered the eleventh stone gate, which then closed behind him of its own accord.

Upon entering the eleventh stone gate, Lin Feng saw a mass of pitch-black energy enveloping Woh Qingqing.

Woh Qingqing was howling in pain, shrieking.

“What an evil aura, is this a soul body?”

Lin Feng was shocked.

“Heavenly Fire burn!”

After his brief surprise, he quickly summoned Heavenly Fire and surged it towards the twisted soul body.

The Heavenly Fire burned, instantly enveloping the contorted soul body.

“Heavenly Fire…”

A pained roar came from within the pitch-black energy.

“Indeed, a soul body. Could it be that all twelve gateways are concealing soul bodies? Whose are these soul bodies? After a person dies, shouldn’t their soul perish? How can they make their divine soul undying?”

A series of questions flickered through Lin Feng’s mind.

However, Lin Feng’s actions didn’t stop; he madly urged the Heavenly Fire, trying to refine this mass of soul body to death.

Because the power contained within this Soul Body was too vast, it made Lin Feng feel a sense of palpable dread.

“The Purple Flame Earth Core Fire, I hadn’t expected that, after countless epochs, Heavenly Fire still existed in the world. You, a lowly ant, have actually refined the Heavenly Fire, truly astonishing. Indeed, this Heavenly Fire could kill me, but your cultivation is far too weak, you can’t even unleash the Heavenly Fire’s might. Thus, you have only one path left—to die.”

The terrifying entity let out a cold laugh.

“Hum.”

A tall figure emerged from within the flames.

That being had nine heads, eighteen arms, and twenty Feathered Wings.

His stature was tall and burly, emitting an aura as terrifying as that of Divine Demons.

“Divine Demon.”

…

Lin Feng screamed in horror.

“That’s right, I am the Undying Soul of a God and Demon.”

The terrifying entity sneered malevolently.

The so-called Undying Soul of God and Demon is the indestructible soul left behind after the death of ancient gods or demons.

“Why? Even after Divine Demons die, their souls should dissipate like smoke and clouds!” Lin Feng shouted in disbelief.

“Netherworld Gate.”

The Undying Soul of God and Demon spoke in a ghastly voice.

“The Netherworld Gate is a type of Demon Stone from the depths of hell. It is said that the magical artifact forged from it can protect the remnant souls of Divine Demons from death.”

Woh Qingqing’s face was pale as she spoke.

The existence of Divine Demon-level beings was different from ordinary cultivators.

If ordinary cultivators’ physical bodies were destroyed, they could preserve their souls for up to a hundred years without dissipating if they found treasures such as the “Heavenly Star Soul Jade” in a short time.

However, Divine Demons, being too powerful, would face Heavenly Tribulation as soon as their bodies were destroyed.

Once the Heavenly Tribulation descended, it would instantly obliterate the souls of Divine Demons, completely erasing their existence.

Yet, a magical artifact forged from Netherworld Stone could protect the remnant soul of a Divine Demon.

“Jie Jie Jie,” the Undying Soul of God and Demon let out a sinister laugh. “That’s right, these twelve Stone Gates are the Netherworld Gates, and only by hiding behind them in the cave could I survive!”

With no power to resist the Undying Soul of God and Demon, both Lin Feng and Woh Qingqing were trapped immobile in mid-air.

“Demon Pearl, Xuanming Demon Book, Holy Emperor Stone…”

Lin Feng was summoning these three treasures, hoping they could come to his aid, but now all three had gone completely silent, severing their connection with him of their own volition.

“Go to hell,” Lin Feng cursed, unable to contain his anger. These sentient treasures clearly did not wish to assist Lin Feng against the Undying Soul of God and Demon.

Perhaps they would rather Lin Feng die by the hands of the Undying Soul of God and Demon.

The Undying Soul of God and Demon would surely be a much more formidable master than Lin Feng.

“Die.”

…

The chilling voice of the Undying Soul of God and Demon echoed.

Then, a terrifying force began to invade the bodies of Lin Feng and Woh Qingqing.

Lin Feng let out an agonized scream, feeling as though his body was about to be torn apart. He feared that in the next moment, his body would explode into a mist of blood, to be devoured by the Undying Soul of God and Demon.

“I really don’t want to die here.”

Lin Feng clenched his teeth. He had so much more to do, yet against the soul of a Divine Demon, he was utterly powerless.

The gap between them was just too great.

Just as Lin Feng was about to be refined to death.

At that moment, a deep voice came from within Lin Feng’s body.

“I have walked from the Six Paths of Reincarnation, I possess an Undying Body, the Heavenly Dao cannot extinguish me, myriad tribulations cannot harm me…”

As the voice fell, Lin Feng’s blood began to flow frantically.

The Bloodline Shackles were unlocking.

“What is this?” The Divine Demon soul looked at Lin Feng with a shocked gaze, as if realizing something unbelievable, and cried out.

“Boom.”

Endless crimson light burst forth, and within the bloodlight, a mysterious and ancient World emerged.

Deep within that world, a majestic figure approached step by step.
