Chapter 12 The Furnace Devours the Crocodile Ancestor
As the second primordial spirit of the Crocodile Ancestor.
Although the golden divine crocodile within Li Xiaoman's soul appeared weak on the outside, easily defeated by a second-level Dao Palace cultivator, its inner essence was extremely high.
This is also why it wants to bring Yuanqingsu into the spiritual world.
The external forces have been temporarily lost, but the will of the demon god, honed over thousands of years, remains!
Within the spiritual world, the influence of external forces is minimized. Coupled with the aura and charm of the quasi-emperor forbidden artifact left by Shakyamuni, mere mortal ants can be destroyed with a wave of the hand.
"When I slaughtered the Buddhist sect, wreaked havoc on Yinghuo, and ran rampant at the Great Thunderclap Temple, your ancestors were still nursing somewhere!"
At the far end of the temple, filled with the corpses of Arhats and Bodhisattvas, stood a colossal crocodile, as large as a mountain, carrying a bronze Buddha statue riddled with cracks. Its body exuded the aura of a Buddhist emperor, and it extended its massive, sun-obscuring claws towards Yuan Qingsu: "Die!"
The shadow of the giant claw fell upon the earth, and mortals could only watch helplessly as the dark tide that engulfed the world swallowed them up.
And in this spiritual world, there are not only Yuan Qingsu, but also Li Xiaoman.
She was there too, powerless and helpless, huddled in a corner, feeling as if she were about to be crushed by this aura.
Boom!
Without uttering a word, Yuan Qingsu thrust out the Spear of the Underworld in his hand. A terrifying aura of hell raged, instantly distorting this spiritual illusion, obliterating the temples and Arhats and Bodhisattvas. The spear pierced the sky and penetrated the Crocodile Ancestor not far away.
With his insignificant mortal body, he wielded a spear and bound the mountain-like demon god, impaling him in mid-air!
"You..." Crocodile Ancestor stared incredulously at Yuan Qingsu with his blood-red eyes, pausing for a moment on that cold and stern face before turning to look at a corner of this spiritual world, where a city girl named Li Xiaoman stood.
She doesn't look old at all here.
Her hair was as black as raven feathers, her skin was delicate, fair and elastic, and her features were exquisite and bright. She held a bronze sculpture of Shakyamuni Buddha, which was full of cracks and should have been carried on the back of the Crocodile Ancestor, in front of her and transferred the Crocodile Ancestor's essence at the critical moment.
Seeing Crocodile Ancestor looking over, Li Xiaoman suppressed her trembling, fear, and excitement, and hissed with a hint of madness, "You're surprised? Actually, I didn't expect it either. I didn't expect it to actually succeed. I'll cooperate with Immortal Yuan to get rid of you, hehe..."
With two souls in one body, Li Xiaoman's soul was parasitized by the Crocodile Ancestor, and her aura was also mixed into the Crocodile Ancestor's second primordial spirit. In addition, the Crocodile Ancestor's second primordial spirit was so weak, and he had to use all his power to deal with Yuan Qingsu.
This created the conditions for her to interfere with the Buddha's forbidden artifact and prevent it from providing power to the Crocodile Ancestor.
Ultimately, this possibility came true, leading it to suffer the most terrifying attack from Yuan Qing Su.
"Why? If I die, you can't possibly live either. We are one..." Crocodile Ancestor said, trembling, as huge cracks appeared on his second primordial spirit.
At this moment, an illusory door appeared on Yuan Qingsu's forehead, deep black and exquisite, exuding wisps of deathly aura.
He no longer concealed this power.
The rushing sound of the river echoed in this spiritual world. The aura of death converged into an illusory river, "ferrying" souls and spirits, clearly separating the Crocodile Ancestor's spirit from Li Xiaoman's soul.
They accomplished what seemed impossible.
To distinguish souls and spirits, and to ferry all living beings across the river.
"You're very smart." Yuan Qingsu glanced at Li Xiaoman and said calmly, "Your trust in me saved you."
"Thank you so much for saving me, Immortal Yuan..." Li Xiaoman said sincerely, regardless of his motives, the young man had indeed saved her.
"Um."
Yuan Qingsu shook the spear with all his might, causing the Crocodile Ancestor to let out an extremely painful roar.
"roar!"
The golden divine crocodile, shattered and reformed under the stirring of the Spear of the Underworld, roared, "Insect, do you really think you can kill me? You think you can slaughter a saint?!"
"Um?"
Yuan Qingsu frowned slightly, raised her other hand, and condensed a second spear to penetrate it, further tearing the Crocodile Ancestor to shreds.
But it never dies.
The golden soul light dissipated and reformed, only dimming slightly in the process.
Was Crocodile Ancestor originally this difficult to kill? Yuan Qingsu felt something was wrong, but he didn't know much about this demon that appeared very early on, so he couldn't tell if it had changed.
"Thump!"
"Roar! You ant, you can't be killed! I will kill you, and everyone connected to you!"
"There is nothing in this world that I cannot kill."
Instead, Yuan Qingsu continuously formed hand seals, creating a pitch-black furnace above his head covered with fissures in lava.
The Heaven-Devouring Hell Furnace!
Facing the ever-destroying divine crocodile, the furnace spun, its mouth aimed at it, spewing out black mist. The thick black mist spread out, extending along the crocodile ancestor's massive body, like countless fingers climbing on its body. And within these countless fingers, there seemed to be countless sharp teeth and mouths, gnawing at the demon saint's second primordial spirit.
This is a technique he created, a demonic art that can devour not only tangible objects, but also the primordial spirit and soul in the spiritual world!
"Holy crap... How is this possible? What kind of supernatural power is this?!"
At this moment, the Crocodile Ancestor's expression changed. This divine power was crude, yet strange and powerful, even unprecedented. The instant it was struck by this divine power, it sensed its own death, its voice filled with fear:
"With my second primordial spirit fallen, the day I break free, I will surely ascend this ancient star and slaughter your entire sect!!"
Amidst screams, the golden, glass-like second primordial spirit body of the Crocodile Ancestor crumbled piece by piece. The scattered soul light particles were continuously transported by the black mist into the five internal organs of Yuan Qingsu's Dao Palace, serving as nourishment for the giant elephant particles.
Moreover, as these soul lights decomposed, the memories they carried were also "eaten" by Yuan Qingsu, flowing through his mind like a movie at double speed.
This is the life of a demon saint.
The second primordial spirit does not possess the power of the Crocodile Ancestor's original body, but it shares the Crocodile Ancestor's memories.
His experiences in the starry sky, his insights into the secret realms, and the various secret techniques and scriptures he had mastered kept flowing into Yuan Qingsu's heart.
For someone who has just embarked on the path of spiritual practice, it is undoubtedly the most precious treasure.
In particular, the cultivation scriptures mastered by Crocodile Ancestor can condense divine power vortexes within the 365 acupoints of the human body, corresponding to the stars in the heavens, and nurture 365 deities. This is extraordinary and of reference value.
boom!
A primal aura erupted, and a certain particle within his Dao Palace Secret Realm drank in this power and revived.
The thirteenth giant particle! The power of thirteen giants!
This power not only manifested in the physical body, but also in the Yuanqing Su Soul Light, which blazed brightly, overlooking the Crocodile Ancestor's second primordial spirit. The Devouring Heaven Hell Furnace once again generated more black mist, accelerating the devouring of its power.
boom!
Nourished by a continuous stream of soul power, the fourteenth giant elephant particle awakened.
