Corpse Burier: I Can Nourish Corpse

Every time they devour some toxic fog, they grow a bit more; given time, they would all eventually reach the third stage.

Within the Black Hall, Lin Yingyun looked at this scene, and couldn’t help but feel shocked to his core.

Unable to calm down for a long time.

Beside Lin Yingyun stood a late-stage Demon Pill Cultivator in a green robe, who was the same late-stage Golden Core Cultivator that acted in Phoenix Snow Celestial Peak; but when the Faceless Cultivator appeared, he instantly knelt down on one knee, "Welcome, Branch Master! May the radiance of the Demon Realm soon descend upon the West Mountain Floating Domain..."

The Faceless Cultivator gradually revealed a human form, he did not speak, merely gazing down at Lin Yingyun with that faceless visage. Lin Yingyun did not speak either, but slightly bowed in respect.

As for why he did not speak.

Because he was afraid and anxious.

Every Branch Master of the Outer Path Hidden Demon Sect, though merely late-stage Demon Pill, had strength of the highest caliber.

Though he was of the same stage, the power differed vastly, and someone like him at the late-stage Golden Core was akin to a middle stage in their presence. It is precisely this strength that forces multiple Floating Domains to join forces against the Outer Path Hidden Demon Sect, and yet, they still hold the upper hand.

"Very good."

"You have made the right choice."

Anchaosheng’s emotionless voice slowly arose, causing Lin Yingyun’s heart to tighten instantly.

Lin Yingyun slowly asked, "So, was it you who wanted to see me all along?"

"Indeed."

Anchaosheng replied.

As he slowly descended, all the True Demons ceased their agitation and murmurs, prostrating on the ground.

Not daring to move.

"But I think there’s nothing I can discuss with you." Lin Yingyun responded instinctively out of fear.

Anchaosheng was indifferent, "You’re afraid of death, so you came; you want to see hope, so you came. The truth indeed is, right now I am the only one who can give you hope."

Before Lin Yingyun could speak, Anchaosheng continued, "Both you and I are at the final stage, and both wish to take that step forward, but you and I know how hard it is to take that step. I am in this state, even more so you. You’ve spent five hundred years, I’ve spent over one thousand seven hundred years, yet neither of us have taken that step.

It’s not because you and I haven’t done enough, but because this Heavenly Dao is unfair, people of our mid-grade nature are ultimately trapped in the confines of the late stage, the Heaven does not permit us to take that step."

Lin Yingyun remained silent, not responding.

Anchaosheng’s words resonated with him, it’s this very despair and pain that prevents him from wanting to seize another chance and start over. Experience despair again?

No!

He doesn’t want it!

"Since the Heavenly Dao is unfair, then our Demon Dao will block this Heaven, when the West Mountain Floating Domain no longer has Spiritual Qi, when the sun and moon no longer rotate, when the branches and leaves of the True Spirit Demon Tree reach the firmament, that will be the day you and I break through the rules of the Heavenly Dao!" Beneath Anchaosheng’s faceless visage was filled with cosmic ambition.

The nearby late-stage Demon Cultivator became exceptionally excited, infinite brilliance bursting from his eyes.

The True Demons prostrate on the ground were as fervently burning like a bonfire, continuously producing bursts of demonic sound.

Celestial Yin Qi trembled, Demonic Qi surged, all this made Lin Yingyun feel a slight peculiarity, his heart of despair seemed to ignite with new hope at this moment. The surrounding deathly and decrepit aura was somewhat diminished by the surge of Demonic Qi.

"What is the True Spirit Demon Tree?" Lin Yingyun hurriedly asked, "What do you intend to do?"

"What we intend to do is not important, what is important is, I can give you an opportunity for immortality. Eternal immortality! Free from the torment of ’cyclical reincarnation’ suffering, and no longer burdened by this decaying flesh, and you will arrive in this world along with the Demon Realm, standing atop the Hundred Floating Domains, becoming something that covers the sky and supports the heavens."

Anchaosheng became more and more excited, with a lift of his hand, a wave of darkness spread, and Demonic Qi like tides swept across, looking ten feet tall, Divine Sense delving into it felt like falling into the abyss as the Demon Tree thunderously landed. As it landed, all the True Demons bowed once more, amidst the bursts of demonic sound, the True Spirit Demon Tree released an aura that made everyone’s soul tremble.

Seeing this scene, Lin Yingyun was stunned in place, the shock in his heart surged endlessly like the rolling Demonic Qi.

"This is..."

Lin Yingyun instinctively spoke.

"This is the True Spirit Demon Tree, an eternal and immortal existence, when its branches and leaves begin to unfold, the obscured lands will become the Demon Realm, serving as our hand to tear apart the injustice of the Heavenly Dao, defying the heavens, also vying for the hope of the Nascent Soul Dao Fruit."

Anchaosheng spoke loudly, the demonic sound shook souls.

Lin Yingyun’s expression congealed, "This is the legendary True Spirit Demon Tree, wasn’t it said to have disappeared along the Heaven-Reaching River four thousand years ago in the previous era in the Hundred Floating Domains?"

"It has returned."

Anchaosheng uttered four words.

These four words struck Lin Yingyun’s heart like a giant hammer, causing his dead heart to beat frantically. However, Lin Yingyun, having lived for a thousand years, forced himself to calm down quickly.

"You want me to merge my soul with the True Spirit Demon Tree, uniting tree and soul, thus controlling the True Spirit Demon Tree?"

Anchaosheng nodded, "Correct, others don’t understand you, but I do, I am willing to offer you this opportunity. By merging your soul with the True Spirit Demon Tree, you may become immortal and eternal, free from the torment of cyclical reincarnation, and unimpeded by physical confinement, as the branches and leaves of the True Spirit Demon Tree reach the firmament, you can transform into a demon, reaching out to seize the Demon Infant Dao Fruit.
