Chapter 756
The Fall of the Two Great Demon Lords
Within the celestial embryo, two wills were constantly battling.
At this moment, the Golden Crow Heavenly Emperor is in an absolute superior position.
Although he was left with only pure will, he still had a physical body, and his consciousness was still incredibly resilient.
As for the Bashe, it has been dead for a long time and is now just a lingering remnant.
It was this lingering remnant that prevented the Golden Crow Heavenly Emperor from merging with it.
"Give up, and join me in taking over this body."
"If you don't agree, then we'll all just die!"
"Since my original body is already dead, I won't be lonely if you're buried with me."
The remnant soul of the Bashe laughed wildly as it spoke.
For him, being able to live only one more life would be the best outcome, but if he could drag the Golden Crow Emperor down with him to die, it wouldn't be a loss.
Upon sensing another consciousness sharing the same body, the Golden Crow Heavenly Emperor felt extremely uncomfortable.
He never expected such a change.
He really can't do anything about it now.
After all, he couldn't really destroy this immortal embryo, abandon his own chance to live, and explode the remnant soul in front of him, could he?
Didn't all his years of planning and accumulation, and the Heavenly Court resources he invested, go down the drain?
The Golden Crow Emperor gritted his teeth, unable to completely break through his opponent's defenses, and felt his mindset becoming increasingly unstable. He was furious, but helpless.
It seems that we have no choice but to compromise for now.
After all, he still had the upper hand compared to the remnant soul of the Bashe.
Once we're out of this dangerous place, we can deal with the remnant soul of the Bashe.
Kill him again!
"Alright! I agree to share this body with you!"
"Haha, you should have agreed earlier."
Upon hearing the Golden Crow Emperor's compromise, the remnant soul of the Bashe immediately abandoned its opposition and began to cooperate.
Both sides immediately began to turn the tide and began to occupy each other's bodies.
Undoubtedly, neither side wanted to die, but Bashe was willing to accept a worse outcome.
Before this, the Heavenly Emperor had also threatened the two demon lords, the Dragon and the Phoenix, in the same way. However, he did not expect that the tables would turn and he would soon be the one being threatened.
How exactly did you manage to get here?
As the physical body was being merged, the Golden Crow Heavenly Emperor asked a question.
He wasn't speaking without reason. His question was an attempt to probe the other party's trump card, and also a way to slow down the speed at which the other party occupied key parts of the body.
Although they are cooperating to a forced degree now, there is still a subtle tension between them.
Do you remember the prohibition laws?
"Did you obtain that thing? How did you know where it was?"
The Golden Crow Heavenly Emperor exclaimed in surprise.
"During the great war countless years ago, Xi'e perished. When I was severely injured, I devoured a part of her primordial spirit and learned many secrets."
"Otherwise, how could I have so easily learned of the existence of that forbidden decree?"
Bashe spoke smugly.
"Of course, I originally intended to groom that kid as my successor. But he quietly replaced the Dragon Clan's crown prince with his own clone. I really want to know what kind of expression that old dragon will have when he finds out the truth."
"What?! Is that true?!"
The Golden Crow Heavenly Emperor spoke in surprise.
"Of course, it's just a pity that he was too lucky, while you were too unlucky, and by chance you brought me here."
"He thought he could withstand the suppression of the forbidden laws along the way, but actually I shared some of the burden for him. Otherwise, he wouldn't have been able to move an inch, let alone follow the laws!"
"Once we take control of the body, we will devour it to replenish ourselves."
"it is good."
The Golden Crow Heavenly Emperor nodded.
The internal conflict that occurred within the celestial embryo earlier consumed a significant amount of power, which must be replenished.
The Immortal Embryo is also considered a demon from beyond the heavens, and it is not afraid of the forbidden laws that the Golden Crow Heavenly Emperor specially created to target the powerful beings of this world.
At this moment, the fusion of the two sides is progressing very rapidly. Because there are two wills, the original 30% chance seems to have changed. The Golden Crow Emperor estimates that it is almost 50/50!
Just as the two demon lords had reached out to each other and were about to enter the most crucial moment after sharing a body, a hand suddenly appeared!
Then, it grabbed the fragile neck of the fetus directly.
"What!?"
"Wait, how can you still move?"
The two demon lords were utterly horrified. Their divine senses expanded slightly, and they noticed that Jiang Shu, who had fallen to the side and become the final sacrifice, had somehow stood up and was holding the forbidden decree in one hand and grabbing the immortal embryo by the neck with the other!
"Are you surprised, seniors?"
Jiang Shu grinned slightly and spoke.
In an instant, absolute silence descended upon this area.
Neither of the two demon lords in Sendai issued any will.
But the next moment, the hysterical voice of the Bashe snake rang out:
"How is this possible? How could you possibly have escaped the restrictions of the prohibition? This shouldn't be happening, absolutely not!"
He sensed the divine power slightly and realized that the ban still had some effect. It shouldn't be difficult to suppress a Venerable whose cultivation had been completely sealed, but it could at least maintain the effect for about a day.
Jiang Shu looked at the still ferocious-looking immortal fetus with those eyes, then smiled slightly: "Coincidentally, there are some things I forgot to tell you, senior."
"I happen to have some extraterrestrial bloodline."
Extraterrestrial bloodline!?
Upon hearing these four words, both the Golden Crow Heavenly Emperor and the Bashe were bewildered.
When did extraterrestrial bloodlines become so common?
They never expected that someone with extraterrestrial blood could actually infiltrate a human sect.
What Bashe didn't expect was that he had been lurking on Jiang Shu's body without ever being discovered.
"When exactly did you realize it!?"
The serpent roared in shock and anger.
“I noticed it as soon as you interfered with my clone’s thoughts.”
Jiang Shu spoke calmly, then said, "I had two exchanges with my clone, both during the great battle. These exchanges were heart-to-heart."
"To put it simply, Golden Horn is my clone. The way he hides himself and his thought processes are exactly the same as mine."
"After you possessed him, you clearly sensed that he seemed different, perhaps just a little bit, and I was already on guard."
As soon as he finished speaking, Jiang Shu raised the Immortal Embryo in his hand, releasing all his aura to completely envelop himself, in order to prevent the two demon lords from having any other tricks up their sleeves.
He then laughed and said, "And sure enough, you started to influence my thoughts again and began to frantically urge me to fight against the Golden Crow Emperor."
"Fortunately, I had taken precautions beforehand and was not completely bewitched and had my mind affected by you, otherwise I would not even know where I died."
Jiang Shu sighed and slowly shook his head.
The changes in temperament felt by powerful figures such as Taiwu Daozun and the leader of the Tiankui Sect were partly genuine and partly deliberately feigned.
He underestimated the power of a demon lord.
The remnant soul of the demon race, attached to his body, was able to interfere with his thoughts, making him more extreme and impulsive. However, he still managed to forcibly control his thoughts.
After all, even his closest friends didn't know that his true trump card was his ability to travel between two worlds.
"Since you've already figured it out, why did you come here alone and risk your life?"
The remnant soul of the Bashe roared as it spoke.
"The reason is simple: I want to get rid of you."
Jiang Shu spoke coldly.
"If you're on my body, who knows what methods you might use to manipulate my thoughts? Rather than taking that risk, you should come out on your own."
“Very good. You have provided me with a solution to get here. I will also use my extraterrestrial bloodline to give you a huge surprise.”
Jiang Shu waved the forbidden decree in his hand: "Actually, if it weren't for this forbidden decree, I would have given up back then and prepared to return to the Vast Domain. Please ask the Daoist to take action and remove the hidden danger for me."
"Unfortunately, it was just luck that led me here."
"After you have acquired the celestial embryo, how could you possibly look down on my physical body? You would naturally choose a better one."
"That's why I insisted on coming here, hoping to break free from your control."
Jiang Shu gave a cold laugh and said:
"You are still merging with the physical body."
As soon as he finished speaking, a destructive aura emanated from his fingers, piercing directly through the Immortal Embryo's chest.
puff!
The physical body of the immortal embryo suddenly broke, and its will was immediately affected, gradually becoming chaotic and dissipating.
At this time, the celestial embryo had not yet been truly born and was extremely fragile, not to mention that Jiang Shu was a complete mid-stage Chaos Realm expert.
Dealing with this unarmed and naked celestial embryo is extremely simple.
"Are you crazy? This is a divine embryo! Don't you want to possess it?!"
Bashe was furious.
He never imagined that he would be the mantis stalking the cicada, unaware of the oriole behind.
The culprit turned out to be Jiang Shu, whom he had always regarded as a pawn.
"So what if he's a celestial being? Can he really become an immortal?"
Jiang Shu immediately chuckled and said:
"Don't joke around. This is just giving someone a second chance at life. But if I were old and about to die, I might want to compete with you for this immortal embryo."
"But now..."
As soon as he finished speaking, Jiang Shu tore off the right arm of the immortal embryo as if it were clay.
puff!
Blood continued to flow, and the celestial fetus immediately turned pale, rapidly heading towards death.
Seeing that the celestial embryo was about to perish, Bashe almost went mad.
He had gone to great lengths and schemes to escape his status as a remnant soul and be reborn as a complete being.
However, his last chance of survival was directly punctured by Jiang Shu!
How could he not go insane?
Just as the Bashe was going mad, the voice of the Golden Crow Heavenly Emperor came from within, extremely calm and steady.
"There's no need to be so crazy anymore, Bashe. You and I are both demon lords, having lived for countless years and fought against fate. We never expected to fall here."
The Golden Crow Heavenly Emperor sighed, then disregarded the fusion process, forcibly controlled his physical body, and opened his eyes.
Those were golden pupils, as if the sun were brewing within them.
"Kid, I've lost this round."
"Actually, it was just a coincidence."
Jiang Shu spoke calmly.
To be honest, it was truly a coincidence.
If it weren't for the Bashe parasitizing his body and affecting his consciousness, Jiang Shu would never have wanted to fall into such a huge pit.
Moreover, his trip here was also due to a series of strange and mysterious causes.
Upon hearing this, the Golden Crow Heavenly Emperor slowly shook his head, controlling his physical body, and said, "No, this is not a coincidence; perhaps it would be better described as destiny."
"Destined?"
Jiang Shu looked slightly puzzled.
"good."
The Golden Crow Emperor agreed and said, "I have failed, but you, with your extraterrestrial bloodline, will inevitably be targeted by this world."
"Perhaps you are not strong now, and you are protected by the luck of the human race, so you can ignore this for the time being. But next, you need to pay attention to something."
"What is it?"
The Golden Crow Heavenly Emperor, manipulating the celestial embryo, spoke without blinking, "Be careful, of Heaven's will!"
God willing!?
Jiang Shu frowned slightly, as if he had also heard the Bashe Demon Lord describe it that way.
However, he was still unclear about whether this was the will of Heaven.
However, at that moment, Jiang Shu suddenly trembled and sensed that something was wrong.
The next moment, his pupils contracted, and he turned his head to find that outside the formation, the golden crow corpse stored there had suddenly swelled up a lot, and an aura of destruction poured out from it!
"This is……"
The next moment, he suddenly realized that the Golden Crow Heavenly Emperor in front of him seemed to have his own backup plan.
That backup plan was the corpse he left outside the formation!
At this moment, the corpse suddenly swelled up, looking as if it was about to self-destruct and completely collapse.
Undoubtedly, he has already transformed most of his power into Tao, but the remaining power is definitely beyond his capacity to withstand.
At that moment, the voice of the Bashe Demon Lord rang out again with maniacal laughter.
"Die with us! What extraterrestrial bloodline? Die with us!"
The voice of the Golden Crow Heavenly Emperor rang out.
"Young friend, I admit that I was outmaneuvered this time, but I am still unwilling to accept it. Come with us and leave."
Jiang Shu looked at the celestial fetus before him and sneered incessantly.
Jiang Shu unleashed his power with all his might, crushing the two demon lords and their immortal embryos together.
Blood splattered everywhere.
There was no remnant of the primordial spirit or consciousness.
To possess the immortal embryo, one must have pure willpower. Such willpower is destined to be weak, and facing Jiang Shu's almost all-out attack, there is absolutely no chance of survival.
"Fall with us. To perish alongside the Demon Lord is a blessing for a mere Dao Venerable like you."
"Dead! Die! Die!"
The remnant soul of the Bashe also spoke in a frenzy, all his efforts in vain. He had originally thought he could live another life, and even had the hope of becoming an immortal.
Now, however, they are forced to die here.
Even he found the contrast between his previous and current situation somewhat unbearable.
However, under the words of the two demon lords.
Jiang Shu's expression was indifferent, his thoughts surging, traversing between two realms, his voice slowly descending:
"No, it will be you who die, not me." (End of Chapter)
