Chapter 915: 692 Devouring Demon God

Above the sky of Beijulu Continent, an awe-inspiring righteousness enveloped everything like a curtain of the heavens, shielding all.

Within it, the River of Time and Space surged mightily, with the power of the sun, moon, and stars sweeping through. The might of the Innate Treasure was fully displayed at this moment, without a doubt.

One could see that the images of those demon gods self-destructing suddenly froze, as if a pause button had been pressed—their very space-time had been forcibly brought to a standstill.

Then, an astonishing change occurred. Time began to reverse, everything moving backward. The shattered bodies of the demon gods started to reassemble, and their disintegrated original sources flowed back at the same moment.

Quickly, the figures of these fifty-one demon gods reappeared, held down by the power of space-time, rigid and immobilized on the spot, unable to move.

"Humph, the mere Demon Clan dares to go against the tide, to act contrary to the Human Path, truly ignorant of life and death."

"The Human Race is thriving. This is the will of the Human Path. Those who oppose it are enemies of all living beings."

Jiang Chen snorted coldly and drove the Heavenly Star Banner with all his might, absorbing these fifty-one demon gods and turning them into resources to strengthen the Heavenly Star Banner.

"This... so powerful!"

"There is such a mighty treasure upon Emperor Lord’s person. With this being so, what was the purpose of his summoning us here?"

Watching Jiang Chen easily suppress ten Quasi-Saint powerhouses and forty-one extremely powerful Innate Dao Sovereigns, all the powerhouses of the Human Race were dumbfounded, their minds greatly shaken, feeling their presence there was somewhat superfluous.

This battle, whether they were present or not, really made no difference, because, based on the strength Jiang Chen had shown, his power alone was enough to sweep across the Demon Clan of Beijulu Continent and take this place.

Boom!

One could see the bodies of those demon gods trembling, shattered by the power of the Heavenly Star Banner and turned into strands of pure original source, which it absorbed.

To the Heavenly Star Banner, demon gods are highly nutritious. If it were to absorb all of them, the banner would immediately achieve Great Perfection, merge with the fragments of the Heavenly Stars, and transform into a supreme Vast Universe Divine Artifact, revered as equal to the Saints.

At this moment, although the Heavenly Star Banner had not absorbed all the demon gods, it had consumed over forty, plus the ten great demon gods were even more formidable. After absorbing their power, the Heavenly Star Banner immediately underwent a metamorphosis.

Within the Cycle of Heavens world, countless laws interwove, with Innate Divine Light shining, reflecting the silhouettes of the Great Dao trajectories. One could see that the laws constructing the world were growing, rapidly evolving towards perfection.

The main body of the Heavenly Star Banner was trembling—the three hundred and sixty-five divine palaces each vibrating, countless runes emerging, growing taller, and spreading an overwhelming divine might.

In the starry sky, the silhouettes of the three hundred and sixty stars of the heavenly cycle shone more brightly and suddenly increased in size. Especially within the stars, where the Heavenly Star Banner was embedded, shone brightly, with innumerable innate runes circulating, evolving towards an Innate Spiritual Treasure.

These demon gods held more than their original source; they also possessed Innate Spiritual Treasures. The lesser in grade were still high-grade. It’s not an exaggeration to say that the innate original sources contained in their Innate Spiritual Treasures were even more abundant than the original sources of the gods themselves.

At that moment, the Heavenly Star Banner absorbed their Innate Spiritual Treasures as well.

The Innate Spiritual Treasures of these demon gods were their birthright treasures, cultivated alongside their very lives, and would not be taken by others. Should the demon gods perish, these treasures would rather self-destruct than fall into another’s hands. Birthright treasures were akin to a part of their bodies.

Such treasures could never be taken if that was the case. Therefore, Jiang Chen didn’t bother leaving them and directly had the Heavenly Star Banner absorb them to strengthen its own source.

After the Heavenly Star Banner had absorbed all these Innate Spiritual Treasures, the one hundred and eight Heavenly Star Banners would ascend from Innate Magic Treasures to evolve into low-grade Innate Spiritual Treasures.

Boom!

The power of the Heavenly Star Banner was strengthening. In its depths, the silhouettes of the Nine Heavens shone more brilliantly, countless runes flowing and interweaving as if pioneering a realm, seeking to birth anew a domain of the skies.

"Hm? These demon gods are still resisting?"

Suddenly, Jiang Chen furrowed his brow and looked toward the figures of the demon gods.

Although their original sources were waning, they were unwilling to be absorbed, instinctively resisting and fighting against the power of the Heavenly Star Banner, significantly slowing its absorption speed.

"I see, it’s those Innate Spiritual Treasures. Their source is much denser, even more so than the demon gods themselves. To destroy and absorb them is more challenging than refining the demon gods."

Quickly, Jiang Chen identified the issue. It wasn’t the demon gods resisting; it was their Innate Spiritual Treasures, which were more powerful, not willing to be absorbed and fiercely fighting back.

"Indeed, wanting to gorge oneself and become fat at once is very hard. With the current strength of the Heavenly Star Banner, refining so many demon gods with their Innate Spiritual Treasures simultaneously is indeed somewhat forced."

"But, though it is forced, if they could all be refined, the benefits the Heavenly Star Banner could reap are undoubtedly tremendous. Perhaps it could reach the late Quasi-Saint level, or even the Level of Great Perfection of Quasi-Saints."

Jiang Chen’s eyes narrowed as he pondered a swift method to refine them.

With so many Innate Spiritual Treasures, their combined strength resisted the Heavenly Star Banner, leading to a significant reduction in the banner’s efficiency in refining them.

This would not be a problem, though. Refining slowly did not mean they couldn’t be refined, it would just take longer, but eventually, all would be absorbed.
