Seeing the full scripture, Manjusaka's eyes widened. Ye Chen had the Devouring Heaven Demon Art? She marveled—his identity as the Heavenly Emperor's heir was indeed real. She'd had doubts before; despite his talent, he was just a Great Yan Continent prodigy. How had he beco the Heavenly Emperor's heir in a few years?
The Heavenly Emperor once crushed a Quasi-Immortal heir of the Devouring Lineage, so acquiring the art wasn't surprising. Ye Chen's silence likely had his reasons. Yet he offered such a technique without hesitation, showing his care for his disciple. Manjusaka's heart stirred with mixed emotions. She whispered, "Thank you!"
With the technique in hand, she didn't hesitate, diving into Su Yuxuan's sea of consciousness. Su Yuxuan's unconscious body jolted upright, her bright eyes opening, beginning to cultivate. Her subtle movents betrayed it wasn't her.
"Ying Tiansheng's origin is rich. Please, Fellow Daoist Ye, kill him and let Yuxuan refine it," Manjusaka said while cultivating.
Practicing the Devouring Heaven Demon Art was just the start—absorbing origins to restore her loss was the goal. Though worried about Ye Chen facing both foes, she had no choice but to trust him.
Hearing her, Yi Qingwu's eyes narrowed, her beautiful gaze turning icy, her body radiating coldness that reached Ying Tiansheng. He smiled, assuming the fiancée was annoyed at the words, defending him.
But Ye Chen knew what she was thinking. After a mont's thought, he didn't agree directly, instead addressing Manjusaka in Su Yuxuan's body. "Cultivate first. We'll discuss the rest later. How long to master it?"
Manjusaka replied instantly, "Half a month to perfect it!" Though her strength hadn't fully recovered, her talent was exceptional. She'd guided or cultivated for Su Yuxuan, making her progress lightning-fast—a true cultivation cheat.
Ye Chen nodded, tossing out an array disc that enveloped Su Yuxuan's body. Even Quasi-Immortals couldn't peer inside—only True Immortals could. Its defense was formidable, perfect for protection during cultivation. Manjusaka focused on the Devouring Heaven Demon Art within.
Only then did Ye Chen turn to the incessant system prompts in his mind.
"Detected: Partner Su Yuxuan's multiplier has changed…"
"Su Yuxuan's updated multiplier: 2,500, with double partner feedback bonus!"
"Due to the multiplier increase, gifting cooldown for Su Yuxuan reduced to one day!"
Stolen from , this story should be reported if encountered on Amazon.
Ye Chen was surprised. Last they parted, Su Yuxuan's multiplier was a re 500. Now, it hit 2,500, rivaling the fiancée's. The Nether God Body was indeed sothing else.
Beyond her multiplier boost, gifting feedback prompts sounded—not for Su Yuxuan, but Manjusaka.
"Congratulations, host, for successful gifting…"
"Gift: Devouring Heaven Demon Art fragnt…"
"500x feedback processing…"
"Detected: Gift is highly significant to the recipient, causing top-tier emotional fluctuations…"
"Triggered maximum critical hit reward…"
"Reward: Full Indestructible Heavenly Art!"
"Reward: Devouring Female Immortal's insights on the Indestructible Heavenly Art!"
Ye Chen frowned at the rewards. A maximum critical hit wasn't surprising. Manjusaka genuinely cared for Su Yuxuan, and gifting the Devouring Heaven Demon Art was a lifeline. Even with her aversion to n, any shred of conscience warranted a top-tier critical hit. But the reward was unexpected. Shouldn't it be the full Devouring Heaven Demon Art? Why the Indestructible Heavenly Art?
He read on: "Indestructible Heavenly Art: When the Devouring Female Immortal ascended, she encountered an ominous force, realizing the Devouring Heaven Demon Art's heavy karma and that even refined origins weren't pure, leading to backlash. Thus, she innovated, creating the Indestructible Heavenly Art atop the Devouring Heaven Demon Art. It retains all its principles and laws while adding the ability to seize the world's fortune for oneself. At ascension, it forms a demonic embryo, purging all ominous forces for a perfect self. This art surpasses the Devouring Heaven Demon Art, countering it while harvesting its practitioners' origins, doubly purified for flawless use without conflict."
Reading this, Ye Chen's doubts about the Devouring Lineage cleared. So that's how it was… No proper lineage gives heirs only fragnts. They weren't heirs—just fodder. The true heir practiced the Indestructible Heavenly Art, stronger and designed to counter the Devouring Heaven Demon Art. The latter treated prodigies as dicine, but its practitioners were prey for the true heir.
Ye Chen sighed. The cultivation world had no good people. Ying Tiansheng thought he'd gained a heaven-defying opportunity, but he was re fodder. He'd despair if he knew.
The Indestructible Heavenly Art was extraordinary, leading to an Acquired Chaos Body—near the strongest, absent a Chaos Body or Innate Holy Body Dao Embryo. But Ye Chen had no plans to grow through devouring. Na aside, it was still a demonic art. Who knew if it had a backdoor? If he ascended and the Devouring Immortal targeted him, he'd be swallowed whole. No thanks. Besides, the system's feedback multiplied origins thousands or ten thousand tis, directly refined for him, far more efficient than devouring himself.
Ye Chen decided: no more simply killing prodigies. Their souls would fuel the Human Emperor Banner, and their origins would be extracted for gifting. At this rate, his physique might leap a tier every three days. Straight to the top. But he frowned. Why did this feel increasingly like a demonic cultivator's path? Shaking his head, he dismissed the thought.
His gaze turned to the First Nether Son and Holy Son, each waiting for the other to act first. Demonic or not, that could wait. These two needed to be dealt with. The little demoness's body, drained of origin, was cracking like glass. Her once-flawless feet, now marred with cracks, fueled Ye Chen's rising killing intent…
