"Fuse!"
Lin Changâsheng chose to fuse without hesitation.
The fusion of two major Demon Techniques would definitely result in an even more powerful Demon Technique.
[Devouring Immortal Demon Technique (Perfection), Yin Yang Blood Evil Technique (Perfection), fusion begins... fusing... Fusion complete. Acquired new Immortal Technique: Devouring God Celestial Demon Skill!]
"Devouring God Celestial Demon Skill?"
Lin Changâsheng muttered inside. Just from the name, you could tell this thing is terrifyingly powerful.
[Detected Devouring God Celestial Demon Skill. Spend 12,000 Spirit Stones to simplify it?]
The system panel popped up with another prompt.
"Yes!"
Lin Changâsheng continued to select "Yes."
[Great Dao Is Simple: Devouring God Celestial Demon Skill simplification starting... simplifying... simplification complete. Devouring God Celestial Demon Skill == Devour Soul!]
"Devour Soul? Now thatâs simple!"
A cold smirk tugged at the corners of Lin Changâshengâs lips.
He had quite a collection of souls sealed in his Myriad Soul Banner. With a wave, numerous souls were summoned at once.
Among them appeared Su Changkong, Jiang Yuyan, Jiu Wushang, and others.
The moment the souls appeared, panic burst across their faces.
They knew that if Lin Changâsheng summoned them, nothing good would ever happen.
And sure enough, a second later Lin Changâsheng extended his palm, activating the Devouring God Celestial Demon Skill. A massive suction erupted, yanking at their soul power relentlessly.
"Aahâ! Senior, spare usâ!"
"Immortal Venerable, have mercy! My soulâs about to scatter!"
"Quit torturing me! If youâre going to kill me, just make it quick!"
"Elder Lin, just treat me like a fart and let me go!"
...
The air was suddenly filled with the wails and howls of lost souls.
Lin Changâsheng couldnât care less.
Most of these souls belonged to Demon Dao scumâwhy would Lin Changâsheng show mercy?

Devouring God Celestial Demon Skill Experience Points +1!
...
As Lin Changâsheng kept drawing in their soul power, many weaker souls were already utterly obliterated, doomed never to reincarnate.
Meanwhile, Su Changkong, Jiang Yuyan, and Jiu Wushangâs soul power was stronger; their faces twisted in agony as Lin Changâsheng continued to devour them.
[Devouring God Celestial Demon Skill has reached Perfection!]
Luckily, it didnât last too long. About an hour later, Lin Changâsheng had maxed out his mastery of the Devouring God Celestial Demon Skill.
"Lin Changâsheng, if youâre so tough, just finish me already! This torture means nothing!"
Su Changkong seethed with fury deep inside.
If heâd known heâd end up like this, he would have self-destructed instead of letting Lin Changâsheng capture him.
Now Lin Changâsheng would drag him out every now and then just to torment him? Insufferable!
"Canât handle it already and weâre just getting started? If I let you off now, what about all those innocent lives you took? You think theyâd rest easy?"
"Youâ"
Before Su Changkong could retort, Lin Changâsheng flicked his hand, sucking Su Changkong back into the Myriad Soul Banner.
He had more pressing matters to attend toâno time to bicker with Su Changkong.
Lin Changâsheng, having cultivated the Devouring God Celestial Demon Skill to Perfection, pulled out the Divine Dragon Leg Bone the Demon Emperor had given him from his Storage Bag.
Just looking at this divine bone, one could sense its extraordinary nature and unfathomable inner power.
Lin Changâsheng instantly infused his Divine Sense, diving into the Divine Bone Space within.
Inside, the space within the dragon bone was immense, covered in trails of blood-colored Divine Patterns, as if forming a profound Brahma Pattern Array.
"Are these blood Divine Patterns the very essence of the Divine Dragon Power and Cultivation Technique the Demon Emperor couldnât figure out all these years?"
Lin Changâsheng murmured in awe.
The patterns were complex, but nothing he couldnât handle.
Closing his eyes, Lin Changâsheng started carefully deciphering those profound, bloody Divine Patterns.
In his mind, streaks of blood-colored lines flashed as he studied the patterns etched into the Divine Dragonâs bone.
Soon, flashes of blood-red light shimmered within Lin Changâshengâs body.
Lines of blood energy snaked through his insides, and with each moment of enlightenment, those lines shot from acupoint to acupoint inside him.
Gradually, it formed an intricate network, wrapping his body entirely.
Time in cultivation sped by quickly.
Lin Changâsheng sensed only a few Hours had passed, but outside, the sky was already starting to lighten in the east.
Buzzâ
At last, as Lin Changâsheng delved further, the blood-colored Divine Patterns became thoroughly clear to him.
[Barbaric Dragon God Technique Entry Level!]
Heâd finally made a breakthrough.
"Barbaric Dragon God Technique? Wait, this is actually a Body Strengthening Technique?"
Understanding the blood Divine Patterns, Lin Changâshengâs heart trembled with excitement.
No wonder Divine Dragon Power could withstand Immortal Treasuresâthose dragonfolk werenât just born strong; they also cultivated powerful Body Strengthening Techniques.
[Detected Barbaric Dragon God Technique. Spend 10,000 Spirit Stones to simplify?]
Just as Lin Changâsheng finished deciphering the Barbaric Dragon God Technique, the system panel popped up a prompt.
"Simplify!"
Lin Changâsheng hit "Simplify" without hesitation.
[Great Dao Is Simple: Barbaric Dragon God Technique simplification starting... simplifying... Simplification complete. Barbaric Dragon God Technique == Exert Force!]
"Exert Force?"
This left Lin Changâsheng a little stunned.
So even walking counts toward mastery now?
He reasonedâwalking also takes strength. So Lin Changâsheng took a few experimental steps.
Barbaric Dragon God Technique Experience Points +1!
Barbaric Dragon God Technique Experience Points +1!
....
"Seriously?"
Sure enough, just by walking, he was grinding mastery for the Barbaric Dragon God TechniqueâLin Changâsheng was elated.
There wasnât time to max it out, thoughâthe sky outside was already turning pale. He couldnât afford more delays. It was time to find the Demon Emperor and set out for the Spiritual Spring Sacred Land.
He hadnât slept all night, but Lin Changâsheng didnât feel the slightest bit tired, still clear-headed and full of energy.
Knock knock knockâ
Just as Lin Changâsheng was about to head out, a knock came at the door.
