Chapter 762: Chapter 365: Reaping the Demon Soul and Contacting Nangong Huan

"To be frank, I won’t let you go. The value of your divided soul far surpasses the so-called Soul Splitting Technique. That is also why I haven’t directly used the Soul Capturing Technique to kill you."

"Then you won’t get anything at all." The soul power of the Celestial Demon’s Lord’s divided soul suddenly began to fluctuate. "The Celestial Demon Race has a Soul Destruction Technique, passed down through generations, specifically to ensure that the Celestial Demon Race can die with dignity. Your Soul Capturing Technique can’t block it, nor can it control it."

Wen Jiu did not doubt the Celestial Demon Lord’s words because the turbulence in soul power had already formed, like a vortex. Perhaps with a single thought from the Celestial Demon Lord, this vortex could instantly obliterate the divided soul.

For the sake of this divided soul, Wen Jiu ultimately restrained his killing intent. "Serve me for two hundred years, and I will return your freedom."

After controlling the soul of the Celestial Demon Lord’s divided soul, it can merge with a demonic body, as long as a suitable one is found.

This divided soul could instantly become a battle force at the late stage of Golden Core, but such an act would waste the Soul Escape Technique.

Therefore, Wen Jiu thought the best approach was to maintain its current state or directly convert it to a Soul Cultivator.

A Soul Cultivator at the late stage of Golden Core, possessing the Soul Escape Technique that the late stage Golden Core cannot catch up with, and being able to traverse through Demon Array barriers that the late stage Golden Core cannot break; if utilized well, there are countless things it could accomplish.

For example: retrieving items.

When opportunity arises and the East Spring Undying Bone is inconvenient to act or just a little lucky, let it take the risk.

Or, if I draw the enemy forward, attracting "fellow cultivators," the Celestial Demon Lord can detour to obtain things.

He can also better conceal his identity.

Create an alibi.

Perfect!

It was also at this moment that the Celestial Demon Lord’s tone became increasingly firm. "The Celestial Demon Race will never become slaves. You are indeed very strong; even perish together, I cannot harm you. But do you think you can offer more than the Outer Path Hidden Demon Sect? That is the True Spirit Demon Tree Heart, which can not only enhance my cultivation level further but could also break through the bloodline limit to reach the Tier Four Realm."

"I’m not asking for a slave either... a hundred and fifty years!" Wen Jiu remained equally resolute. "I can make a Heart Demon Oath."

"The dignity of the Celestial Demon cannot be trampled."

"A hundred years, and a Heart Demon Oath besides."

"Sir..."

"Fifty years, that’s my final offer. I can also make a Heart Demon Oath."

The Celestial Demon Lord resolutely spoke, "Since you are willing to concede so much, I am willing to submit. But the Heart Demon Oath must be made first."

"Agreed."

Wen Jiu smiled with satisfaction.

Just as expected.

Initially, I shouldn’t have said fifty years.

"Fifty years will pass in the blink of an eye, it’s acceptable..." When Wen Jiu controlled the East Spring Undying Bone to make the Heart Demon Corpse Eye, the Celestial Demon Lord couldn’t help but sigh. He then added,

"Could you find a place for my Celestial Demon Race to reside?"

Wen Jiu merely responded indifferently, "The vastness of the West Mountain Floating Domain doesn’t even have a place for me to reside, let alone you?"

"Even though you are at the late stage of Golden Core, your strength can rival that of Golden Core Perfection, how could there not be..."

Before the words were finished, Wen Jiu interrupted abruptly, "Is there only one Demon Lord at Demon Pill Perfection in the Outer Path Hidden Demon Sect? Even if I could kill him, what about the people behind him? Should I keep killing? What if I encounter someone I can’t kill, who kills me instead?"

The Celestial Demon was left speechless.

With a helpless sigh, he ultimately refrained from mentioning the Celestial Demon Race further.

He had long understood that once the Outer Path Hidden Demon Sect began invading the West Mountain Floating Domain, the Celestial Demon Race would sooner or later have nowhere to belong. He just never wanted to accept it and clung to hope.

Wen Jiu didn’t linger on the subject either, "Pass the Soul Splitting Technique to me."

"This technique is called the Celestial Demon Soul Storage Secret Technique, and it indeed requires the Celestial Demon Emperor Bloodline to practice. However, the Celestial Demon Emperor Bloodline is extremely difficult to continue and even harder to produce. In a thousand years, I am the only one to emerge from the Celestial Yin Mountain Range’s Celestial Demon Race." After explaining, the Celestial Demon Lord transmitted the Celestial Demon Soul Storage Secret Technique to the East Spring Undying Bone through his thoughts.

Upon seeing the secret technique, Wen Jiu understood why the Celestial Demon Emperor Bloodline was necessary, because soul storage truly involves splitting the main soul, continuously storing the Divine Soul in the Demon Bloodline, and ordinary Demon Blood cannot bear the storage of the Divine Soul. If done, the Demon Blood might quickly ignite like tinder meeting a raging fire.

As for why only the Celestial Demon Race is suitable for practicing this, it is not absolute. It’s because the Soul Splitting Technique requires the Celestial Demon Divine Fire’s assistance.

According to the cultivation process inferred from this technique, if one could possess a flame divine technique similar to the Celestial Demon Divine Fire, perhaps it could also be successfully practiced. Unfortunately, at the Golden Core Level, it’s very hard to find a comparable flame. At least, there are no substitutes in the soul memories Wen Jiu obtained.

However, looking at the entire West Mountain Floating Domain, there must be one. But this is not something he can worry about now.

If this technique cannot be practiced, just leave it aside for the time being. If he starts collecting demon pets, it can be given to them for cultivation.

They too would have an additional means of self-preservation.

"Follow me back to the Celestial Yin Mountain Range." With his thoughts collected, Wen Jiu controlled the East Spring Undying Bone to return.

The Celestial Demon Lord was evidently reluctant, especially having just escaped. "Sir, that place has now completely turned into the Demon Realm..."

"What, do you think these fifty years are for your enjoyment?" Wen Jiu replied coldly, and then added, "Rest assured, your value is considerable. At least for these fifty years, I won’t let you die."

"Uh..."

The words were as they were.

But why did they sound so awkward?
