Wu dong Qian Kun: I, Lin Langtian, Refuse to be a Supporting Character Chapter 542: News from the Demon Region

Had the Devil Seed within him truly taken an interest in the Heaven Underworld King's Devil Embryo?

At this thought, Lin Langtian's face flashed with contemplation, his gaze flickering slightly.

From what he knew, a Yimo's Devil Embryo was equivalent to a human cultivator's Yuan Spirit. Both were extrely similar, be it in purpose or function.

The formation of a Yuan Spirit marked the pinnacle of cultivation at the Nirvana stage. Only those who had reached the peak of Nine Yuan Nirvana or entered the Life Profound Realm could succeed in rging Yuan Power with vital Qi to eternally form a Yuan Spirit.

The power of the Yuan Spirit wasn't just stronger; more importantly, once ford, it allowed one to transcend physical constraints. Even if the physical body was later destroyed, the Yuan Spirit wouldn't imdiately dissipate. Provided one had sufficient thods and resources, rebuilding a physical body and reviving oneself wasn't impossible.

The sa applied to the Yimo's Devil Embryo. Thus, when the Heaven Underworld King realized he couldn't withstand the power of the King-Destroying Heavenly Plate, he decisively detonated his body, hoping his Devil Embryo could escape.

If the Yuan Spirit was akin to the Devil Embryo, then the Devil Seed within him was comparable to a Yuan Core. Clearly, the Devil Embryo was a level above the Devil Seed, possessing more potent power.

For Lin Langtian to advance further on his demonic cultivation path, he needed to form his own Devil Embryo, much like forming a Yuan Spirit.

Having made this realization, Lin Langtian quickly solidified his determination. The reaction of his Devil Seed signaled it was ti to form his Devil Embryo.

Although Lin Langtian didn't precisely know how to form a Devil Embryo, the process probably wasn't too different from forming a Yuan Spirit, given their similarities.

He recalled that, in addition to his natural talent and external assistance, a crucial part of forming his Yuan Spirit had been refining soone else's Yuan Spirit as an auxiliary resource.

Therefore, he might replicate this thod—refining Yimo Devil Embryos to create his own Devil Embryo.

Fortunately, a suitable Devil Embryo was available right now. Although this one was particularly extraordinary, belonging to a Yimo King, it made Lin Langtian all the more interested.

With the suppression from the Golden Spirit Wheel Mirror, even refining the Devil Embryo of a Yimo King was worth trying.

However, the battle overhead wasn't over yet, and the enemy had received reinforcents. Lin Langtian had to plan carefully how to stealthily obtain the Heaven Underworld King's Devil Embryo.

…

In the sky, as the enormous demonic hands from the massive black vortex clashed fiercely with the Azure Dragon Claw, the battle situation abruptly shifted once again.

"Reinforcents again?"

Qing Zhi's expression turned slightly cold at this unexpected developnt. However, since their side held the advantage, Qing Zhi wouldn't easily relent.

Qing Zhi stamped lightly with his foot, and thousands of Azure Dragon light symbols burst from his body, bolstering the Azure Dragon Claw and forcing the giant demonic hands into retreat.

"Mo Luo!" Qing Zhi shouted sharply while restraining the huge demonic hands from beyond space.

Hearing this, Mo Luo imdiately nodded. Murderous intent surged in his eyes, and he flashed across space, appearing directly before the escaping Devil Embryo.

"You dare!"

A furious roar emanated from within the black vortex, and one of the massive demonic hands attempted to intercept Mo Luo.

"Stay right there!" Qing Zhi yelled coldly. The Azure Dragon Claw howled forth, tightly pinning the two enormous demonic hands in place.

Mo Luo's expression was icy as he summoned a spear of fla into his hand. Flas surged at its tip, forming a fiery vortex as he rcilessly thrust it forward.

Boom!

The fiery spear tore through space, leaving behind a brilliant tail of fla, piercing straight through the Devil Embryo amidst its horrified screams.

Pierced by the spear, purple-gold blood spilled continuously from the Devil Embryo. The Heaven Underworld King's shrill cries echoed chillingly throughout the sky.

Bang!

At the peak of its screams, the Devil Embryo exploded violently. Purple-gold blood sprayed everywhere, sizzling upon contact with space itself.

From deep within the black vortex ca another enraged roar. The giant demonic hand swiftly retracted, snatching most of the scattered purple-gold blood back into the vortex.

However, Mo Luo's fiery spear was too powerful, causing the Heaven Underworld King's Devil Embryo to explode so violently that the purple-gold blood was scattered across every corner of this realm. Although the giant demonic hand managed to collect much of it, a significant amount remained unnoticed.

Amidst the chaos, no one noticed scattered droplets of purple-gold blood suddenly flickering with a faint silver glow. Space distorted subtly, and these droplets quietly vanished without a trace.

Neither Qing Zhi, Mo Luo, nor even the dying Heaven Underworld King noticed this subtle event.

Only Lin Langtian below had a satisfied smile on his lips.

Although he hadn't obtained a complete Devil Embryo, the scattered blood essence of a Yimo King should be enough to form his own Devil Embryo.

"Qing Zhi, Mo Luo! You dared kill a King of my race! The 'Demonic Prison' will never forgive you. Just wait, just wait!"

As the giant hands retreated, a furious voice filled with killing intent roared from the depths of the black vortex, reverberating through the skies before fading completely, along with the vortex itself.

With the disappearance of the black vortex, the oppressive demonic aura receded like a tide.

Qing Zhi stared thoughtfully at the spot where the vortex vanished. "Another Yimo King... troubleso creatures."

"It seems he attacked by piercing through space," Mo Luo noted, dispersing the fiery spear. "But he was too far away. Such attacks won't be enough to deter you."

"Lord Mo Luo, is the Heaven Underworld King truly dead?" Elder Chi Yun asked anxiously. It would be disappointing if the Heaven Underworld King had survived after all this effort.

"Don't worry," Mo Luo reassured calmly. "He sustained fatal damage. Although so blood essence was saved, reviving him would be extrely difficult. Even if he returns, his strength would greatly decline and pose no significant threat."

Chi Yun sighed in relief.

Qing Zhi waved his sleeve, dispersing the massive cyan disk covering the sky. The King-Destroying Heavenly Plate returned to his hand, appearing extrely dim as if its energy had been exhausted.

"It seems this Heavenly Plate won't be usable again for a long while," Mu Lan remarked.

"Still, defeating a Yimo King made it worthwhile," Qing Zhi smiled. "Demonic Prison has beco increasingly active. Perhaps it's ti our old fellows stretched their muscles."

"At least we won this battle," Qing Zhi concluded as the demonic Qi completely dissipated.

Sunlight returned, illuminating the ruined city of Fire Fla City, proof of the shocking battle that had taken place.

"Everyone," a clear voice suddenly echoed, calming the turmoil outside the city, "Fire Fla City has been severely damaged. We request you to leave temporarily. Anyone causing trouble will face the full wrath of Fla Divine Hall."

Tang Xinlian hovered majestically in midair, issuing orders. After witnessing her extraordinary leadership during the battle, no one dared challenge her authority, bringing imdiate calm.

"This young lady is truly impressive..." So veteran experts marveled privately. Clearly, no one among the younger generation could rival Tang Xinlian after today.

Returning to the ground, Tang Xinlian swiftly directed Fla Divine Hall disciples to various tasks before landing near Lin Langtian.

"Haha, Fla Fairy of Fla Divine Hall, truly fearso. But if you're always this fierce, who will dare marry you in the future?" Lin Langtian joked, amused by her commanding aura.

Whoosh!

A fiery red spear tip abruptly appeared inches from Lin Langtian's face, forcing him into startled silence.

Tang Xinlian narrowed her eyes. "Done talking?"

Lin Langtian raised his hands in surrender. "Alright, I'll stop."

Tang Xinlian withdrew her spear and approached him calmly, suddenly breaking into a gentle smile. "You're more impressive. With your talent, I'd probably always remain behind you."

Lin Langtian shook his head, smiling sincerely. "You excel in ways I never could. Your leadership alone surpasses mine."

Tang Xinlian blushed slightly, unexpectedly pleased. She realized, at that mont, this might indeed be love.

"Now that the battle's over," she said earnestly, "do you have your answer for ?"

Lin Langtian hesitated, awkwardly avoiding her gaze. "Let's discuss that later. I need to speak with Lord Qing Zhi and Mo Luo first."

He quickly excused himself, fleeing from her piercing gaze.

Tang Xinlian watched him flee, smiling faintly, captivating the disciples nearby.

Lin Langtian found Lin Dong already chatting happily with Qing Zhi and Mo Luo, who were informing him about his companions:

"Your two brothers ended up in the Demon Region. One belongs to the Celestial Demon Marten clan, a fierce and powerful race unafraid even of the Dragon Tribe. Your other friend possesses the Heavenly Devil Tiger bloodline. Both should be thriving," Qing Zhi reassured.

Lin Langtian interrupted politely, "Senior Qing Zhi, have you heard anything recently about the Seven Evil Black Golden Crow clan?"

"Seven Evil Black Golden Crow clan..." Qing Zhi pondered. "If I rember correctly, sothing serious recently occurred within their clan…"
