Keyboard Immortal - Chapter 2908

Chapter 1421 Burn My Remains

The Heavenly Demon Empress carefully examined Daji, finally shaking her head: “Her condition isn’t that her soul was devoured, but rather that her soul separated from her body. Moreover, it seems her soul hasn’t dissipated, otherwise her body would have long since decayed. How can her soul persist even after leaving her body?”

Whether mortal or divine, the soul and body are interdependent. Cultivation is like sailing a boat on a sea of suffering; without a soul, the boat cannot sail; but without the protection of the body, the soul will quickly be submerged and dissolved.

“Heavenly Demon Empress, business is important! Don’t forget our agreement!” Seeing the two chatting so happily, Vimalakirti, in the distance, was both surprised and angry, worried that she might suddenly be recruited by Zu’an. The Heavenly Demon Empress

coldly snorted: “My affairs are none of your concern.”

Vimalakirti: “…”

It’s said that the Heavenly Demon is capricious and acts absurdly; seeing her today, he’s indeed unreliable.

“I like your maid very much; she’s mine now.” The Heavenly Demon Empress said, her hand swiping out to pull Daji towards her. However, her expression quickly changed: “Huh? I can’t sever the bond between you and your servant.”

Zu An secretly breathed a sigh of relief. The keyboard system’s permissions were terrifyingly high; what kind of being created it?

“You’re making me more and more interested. How did you get her?” The Heavenly Demon Empress looked at Zu An curiously.

Zu An looked at the scene in the void; the Asuras were wailing in agony, some of the weaker ones already reduced to ashes and dissipated in the air, clearly sacrificed by this great formation.

“Tell me first why you want to cooperate with Vimalakirti. You’ve already seen my maid, so you should understand that our bond is much deeper. Why not cooperate with me instead?”

The Heavenly Demon Empress chuckled. “It’s always been us Heavenly Demons who tempt living beings. I never thought that one day a living being would tempt the Heavenly Demons. Your suggestion is indeed very attractive, young man, but unfortunately, what Vimalakirti can give me, you can’t. I regretfully refuse you.”

“Did he promise you the souls of thousands of Asuras?” Zu’an quickly guessed.

The Heavenly Demon Empress shook her head with a smile. “You underestimate me too much.”

At this moment, Vimalakirti’s exasperated voice rang out: “Stop wasting time talking to him! Kill him first, lest we ruin our grand plan!”

The Heavenly Demon Empress then looked at Zu’an. “Young man, although I find you very interesting, the important matter is paramount. I can only devour your soul first. Then you will become one with me completely. Don’t be afraid, I will take good care of you.”

After saying this, she leaned close to Zu’an, as if to kiss him.

But a tremendous suction force arrived, and Zu’an’s soul swayed instantly, as if it were about to leave her body at any moment.

However, her expression quickly changed, because she realized that she had lost sight of the other party.

The “Illusory Realm of the Great Void” allows the body to exist between the real and the illusory, making it difficult to suffer various kinds of harm.

It was only because Zu’an was completely unprepared for Tu Shanyu that she was able to successfully ambush him.

The conversation just now was to buy time. He frantically activated the Gluttonous Devouring Heaven Technique within his body, devouring and dissolving the restrictions that the other party had placed on him.

He did not waste this opportunity, appearing almost instantly beside the other party, and countless divine artifacts formed from divine runes bombarded the Heavenly Demon Empress.

He could not hold back in the slightest against such a powerful being.

But this attack, which was enough to destroy a planet, ultimately missed. The other party seemed to be in the void just like him.

The Heavenly Demon Empress’s vanished figure reassembled, her charming laughter echoing in all directions: “Young master, you’re truly ruthless! That was so forceful, I could barely take it.”

Zu An chuckled, “Weren’t you just as ruthless? You almost made my soul dissipate.”

Heavenly Demons were indeed special beings; they seemed to have no physical form. As long as there were living beings and souls in the world, they could hide within them, making them incredibly difficult to kill completely.

He had deliberately provoked her with words to make her reveal herself, but even with a sudden attack, he still found it difficult to harm her.

“I only wanted you to completely merge with me, so you would be me and I would be you. Unlike you, who truly wants my life.” The Heavenly Demon Empress’s voice held a hint of coquettish resentment.

Zu An ignored her and charged directly towards Vimalakirti.

Since the Heavenly Demon Empress was difficult to deal with for the time being, he would deal with the physically formed Vimalakirti first.

Vimalakirti was at the crucial moment of his sacrifice and unable to fully resist. He dodged while roaring, “Empress of Heavenly Demons, stop him!”

Unfortunately, in the brief moment of contact, Zu An had already severed two of his arms.

Fortunately, the powerful Asura had a total of nine arms, so he wasn’t immediately unable to maintain the sacrifice.

The Empress of Heavenly Demons chuckled, “Men are always so impatient.”

She then stepped in front of Zu An, saying, “Young man, your opponent is me.”

Zu An was also quite troubled; this woman seemed to have no physical form, making her difficult to harm.

He knew that in the past, so many powerful gods and demons in the Heavenly Court fought against the demons, and although they were defeated, they couldn’t be destroyed. That was the nature of demons; as long as there were living beings and desires in the world, they were immortal.

Therefore, he abandoned his plan for a direct confrontation and instead used the “Illusory Realm of the Great Void” to extract some of her memories and obsessions, weaving an illusion that would temporarily ensnare her, making her unable to extricate herself.

For a long time, it was the Heavenly Demons who wove illusions for others. Never did she expect that one day, she, as the Empress, would also fall into someone else’s illusion.

She seemed to be transported back to the scene of the Heavenly Demons’ defeat in their battle against the gods, the scenes of life and death bringing tears to her eyes.

Seeing this, Vimalakirti was dumbfounded. This Heavenly Demon Empress, so powerful and domineering in his presence, had been manipulated like this by this guy?

Zu’an, however, dared not be careless. He knew that the Heavenly Demons were masters of illusions, let alone the most powerful Heavenly Demon Empress.

His illusions wouldn’t hold her for long; he had to seize the time to deal with everything.

He no longer held back, unleashing beams of divine light upon Vimalakirti.

In an instant, three more of Vimalakirti’s arms were severed.

He was both shocked and furious, knowing that under the influence of the sacrifice, he was powerless to resist such a powerful attack. But if he abandoned the sacrifice, years of painstaking effort would be destroyed.

He was a ruthless man by nature, and immediately made a decision. He pulled out a dagger and plunged it into his heart: “Burn my remains, holy fire…”

Almost as soon as he finished speaking, his entire body burst into flames, turning into ashes in the blink of an eye, leaving only a vicious and venomous voice in the air: “Resurrect, Primordial Demon God! Kill everything in this world, and then destroy the Celestial Realm!”

His hatred for the Celestial Gods had reached the very core of his being, and he was willing to sacrifice his own life for them.

At this moment, the distant mountains suddenly moved, and a monstrous demonic pressure filled the entire world. Even the usually unruly Asuras outside trembled in fear, kneeling and worshipping something.
