Absolute Resonance - Chapter 1676

Chapter 1673 Dark Demon Body

Yin Tianwang’s indifferent voice echoed through the vast hall, a hint of murderous intent lingering within it, causing the very void within it to violently tremble. The energy of heaven and earth rippled with his emotions.

A terrifying pressure, like a tidal wave, surged towards Li Lingjing within the hall. Under this pressure, even breathing seemed to become difficult for her.

Even after devouring Shen Jinxiao and completely annihilating him in Daxia City, Li Lingjing had already reached the King Realm. Even so, facing the oppression of a Divine Fruit Heavenly King, she was powerless.

She stood still, her snake tail swaying slowly. Scales shattered on her pale skin, and blood flowed from it.

It looked as if she would be crushed alive by Yin Tianwang’s wrath at any moment.

Yet, despite her desperate situation, Li Lingjing’s pale and beautiful face showed no trace of fear. After all, life and death meant nothing to her.

After repeatedly assisting Li Luo, she knew she would eventually face a reckoning. After all, the Heavenly Kings here were no fools. Her methods might deceive the Plutos, but not the all-knowing Lord Heavenly Kings.

“Are you not afraid of death?” Heavenly King Yin, sensing Li Lingjing’s calm demeanor, suddenly softened his composure and asked indifferently.

“What do you think, Lord?” Li Lingjing wiped the blood from the corner of her mouth and said calmly.

“You’re quite courageous. You disregard even the might of a Heavenly King. No wonder you’ve repeatedly survived life-or-death situations.” A bright white flame flickered in Heavenly King Yin’s eyes, and his words seemed to carry a hint of admiration. “

And it seems you’ve already guessed I won’t kill you.”

Li Lingjing lowered her eyes slightly, not replying. She did have some suspicions. After all, with Heavenly King Yin’s power and means, if he wanted to kill her, he wouldn’t have needed to abduct her from Daxia City. And once he was there, if he needed to deal with her, he wouldn’t have to release her again; he could simply eliminate her.

But Yin Tianwang released her, suggesting he had other plans.

Li Lingjing, however, didn’t breathe a sigh of relief. Instead, a deep sense of war rose within her. After all, she didn’t believe Yin Tianwang would be merciful.

Yin Tianwang’s eyes, blazing with white flames, rested on Li Lingjing’s form, their gaze seemingly piercing every secret within her. Finally, he said calmly, “I’ve been researching the Spirit Eye for centuries, and I never imagined I’d finally succeed.”

“Li Lingjing, you are a unique being. A strong aura of evil flows through your body, proving you are indeed an alien. Yet, you retain your original spiritual intelligence, untainted by countless negative emotions. In a sense, you are a fusion of alien and human, a fact that aligns with the principles of our Guiyi Society.”

“You are a truly perfect ‘Dark Demon Body,’ a fine vessel.”

“The mission I entrusted to the Spirit Eye has truly been accomplished.”

Li Lingjing narrowed her eyes. What did Yin Tianwang mean? Could it be that the countless experiments on the “Erosion Soul Demon” conducted by the Spirit Eye Hades were directed by him?

And was he the culmination of hundreds of years of painstaking effort by the Spirit Eye Hades? The so-called Dark Demon Body?

A perfect shell? Then who wanted his body as a shell?

“Li Lingjing, do you want to die or live?” asked Yin Tianwang.

Li Lingjing said expressionlessly, “I don’t seem to have a choice.”

“You are very clever,” Yin Tianwang smiled indifferently, and then said, “Offer your body.”

Li Lingjing’s eyes flickered with gloom, and he said, “I wonder who wants to occupy my body? I’m not afraid to tell Lord Yin that this body of mine is extremely ominous. Over the years, it has been devoured countless times, but those who have pursued this purpose have all died.”

“Haha.”

The dignified Divine Fruit Heavenly King couldn’t help but laugh.

“Your temperament is perfect for a reunion with me. I’m a little reluctant to let you go, but there’s nothing I can do. Your ‘Dark Demon Body’ is the product of much planning.”

“You wish to know who will occupy this body? Actually, you’re truly lucky.”

From Yin Tianwang’s bronze mask, a stream of white flames flowed, transforming into a human form. He then turned and gazed deep into the vast hall. Li Lingjing followed suit and saw the black coffin nestled amidst a series of terrifying formations. Her heart sank.

Previously, in Daxia City, although she had been evolving in seclusion at Luolan Mansion headquarters, she had also been following the clashes between the various factions. She knew a great deal, for example, that within this black coffin lay an indescribably terrifying and bizarre being.

Even Yin Tianwang held it in awe.

Perhaps the being within that black coffin is the true leader of the Guiyi Society.

So, was this so-called “Dark Demon Body” prepared for him?

“Your body will be a crucial vehicle for the Sect Master’s emergence, Li Lingjing. This is your unparalleled honor. To ensure that the future Sect Master, after breaking the seal, possesses a body perfectly suited to bear his power, you must now begin your baptism. Your will must be purged from this body.” Yin Tianwang bowed slightly toward the black coffin.

As he bent, black smoke, permeated with an aura of annihilation, billowed from the dark crevices of the coffin. In an instant, the smoke filled the vast hall.

Within the smoke, a terrifying will seemed to emanate.

Li Lingjing clenched her hands, blue veins jutting from her pale skin. Facing the terrifying will within the smoke, a chill welled up within her, a fearless woman.

She had endured countless battles of devourment before, and always emerged victorious, including the one that devoured Shen Jinxiao.

Therefore, Li Lingjing had never feared such a dangerous devourment. But now, facing the black smoke that obscured the sky, her confidence finally wavered.

She wasn’t sure she could retain even

a trace of her sanity under the erosion of such a terrifying will.

“Those who love water drown. Is this my final fate?”

Li Lingjing, her body icy, scoffed softly to herself.

However, it didn’t seem surprising. Her life had already ended the moment the Spirit Eye Hades planted the “Soul-Eroding True Demon” in her.

The black smoke filled the sky, shattering even the very void. The next moment, it surged down as if possessed of life, easily piercing the energy shields surrounding Li Lingjing’s body and violently pouring into her through her seven orifices.

A trace of utterly terrifying will began to surge within Li Lingjing, completely crushing her sanity.

The luster in Li Lingjing’s eyes gradually faded.

Her mind was rapidly blurring, and she was detaching from the world. Darkness surged in like a tide.

Black smoke lingered around her body, gradually transforming into a black cocoon, encrusted with countless eerie runes that slowly moved.

Li Lingjing’s vision grew increasingly blurry as the cocoon healed.

After all, after struggling for so many years, she was tired.

As the last ray of light faded, Li Lingjing sighed softly from deep within, and in that final moment, a profound image flashed through her mind.

It was Xiling City, in the desolate and silent courtyard of the Li family mansion.

She sat in a wheelchair, her eyes dull, like a lifeless object.

Suddenly, at the broken gate, a young man, stepping on the light, was reflected in her pupils.

He smiled warmly at her, casting a glimmer of hope for redemption in her dead heart.

Li Lingjing couldn’t help but curl her lips slightly.

Li Luo, I’m sorry, but it seems I have to stop here.

I can’t help you anymore.

Please be careful in the future.
