<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">"Young Master!"

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">Seeing Su Jingzhen's condition change once again, Shengana's brows furrowed deeply and her eyes filled with concern. 

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">Su Jingzhen's current state made her want to use her purification power on him immediately.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">Qiu Yaoyao and Lin Ying also approached. At this moment, they too were unable to understand the changes happening to Su Jingzhen.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">Zhang Xiu raised an eyebrow and stopped Shengana.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">"He already has this kind of demonic power within him. There's no need to interfere. With me here, nothing will happen to him."

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">Zhang Xiu, who had inherited everything from Saintess Qing Yue and the Sword Ancestor, could essentially be considered the Sword Ancestor herself.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">The three of them were originally one, but even if Zhang Xiu's consciousness and will were now dominant, she had perfectly inherited the knowledge and experience of the other two. 

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">Hearing her words, though still worried, Shengana nodded silently.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">Su Jingzhen, holding the demonic crystal, continued to wander around the battlefield, absorbing the scattered pure demonic energy. 

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">His actions were noticed by the demon general who was fighting with the Sword Master.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">The demon general, who was looking for an opportunity to escape and trying to delay Sword Master, noticed Su Jingzhen's changes and a look of delight appeared in his eyes.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">"Haha, I never expected to find such a natural demon seed among you. Heaven is truly on my side!"

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">Excitedly muttering to himself, the Demon General's fifth-level Immortal Emperor Aura surged once again. 

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">After using a demonic treasure to block a strike from the Sword Master, his demonic power instantly descended upon Su Jingzhen.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">At the same time, a brilliant white light flashed around Su Jingzhen.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">Bai Suzhen had been prepared for this since Su Jingzhen began his actions. 

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">When the demonic power descended, she didn't hesitate to unleash a beam of Chaos Calamity Light, striking the demonic energy.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">However, the normally unstoppable Chaos Calamity Light didn't have much effect this time. 

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">After all, she had only just broken through to the Immortal King level. 

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">Even though she had survived the Tribulation of the Five Elements, she couldn't fight across such a large gap in cultivation levels.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">Her white serpent form had just materialized when the demon general slapped her away, causing her aura to weaken significantly.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">But her Chaos Calamity Light had bought Su Jingzhen a brief moment of respite.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">Su Jingzhen's consciousness instantly mobilized all the world power within the Pure Land of Ultimate Bliss.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">In the next moment, he felt his sea of consciousness being forcibly breached. A massive consciousness surged in—it was the soul of the demon general.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">"Kid, I never expected your body to be so perfect, a natural demon seed. Well then, I'll gladly take it."

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">The demon's arrogant voice echoed in Su Jingzhen's sea of consciousness. He wanted to possess Su Jingzhen right away.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">At this moment, Su Jingzhen was the only chance he saw for his survival. 

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">That's why he had decisively abandoned his own body. 

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">As long as he could possess Su Jingzhen, Sword Master would be unable to do anything to him. 

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">If Sword Master wanted to destroy him, he would have to kill Su Jingzhen first.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">The demon could also tell that Su Jingzhen seemed to be the soul of this group. He wouldn't be sacrificed like the Third Elder.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">Of course, he didn't need to stay within Su Jingzhen's body forever.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">As long as he could escape the sword energy barrier the Sword Master had set up, even the Sword Master wouldn't be able to stop him from fleeing.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">"Bastard!"

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">Seeing this, Sword Master was enraged. His killing intent had reached its peak. 

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">With another sword strike, the demon general's physical body was reduced to dust.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">Meanwhile, Su Jingzhen's body stood still, holding the Demon Crystal. 

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">His eyes still glowed with an eerie red light, and his aura was extremely chaotic. 

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">His face showed signs of struggle, all consistent with someone being possessed.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">Everyone around him, including Zhang Xiu, was no longer calm.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">Earlier, Zhang Xiu had only thought that the surrounding demonic energy wouldn't harm Su Jingzhen. 

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">She hadn't considered that the demon general fighting the Sword Master might try to possess him.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">Shengana pulled out her staff again, and another emerald green energy beam enveloped Su Jingzhen, trying to support him and purify the demonic energy.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">However, Shengana was only at the late stage of Spirit Immortality. Her abilities were limited, and she couldn't do much in a possession battle of this level.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">Zhang Xiu and Lin Ying's bodies once again radiated ancient sword energy. 

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">The sword master also rushed over, and Li Lingxi interrupted her recovery. They all surrounded Su Jingzhen.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">However, Su Jingzhen sat cross-legged on the spot. Although his aura was still fluctuating strangely, the Demon General seemed to be struggling to succeed.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">"Is this boy really just a physical saint? His soul seems to be terribly strong. Or does he have some treasure specifically designed to counter soul entities?"

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">As everyone watched nervously, an incense stick's worth of time passed.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">The Sword Master muttered in surprise. 

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">Logically, an Immortal Emperor possessing the body of a physical saint should be instantaneous. 

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">In fact, the moment the Demon General had abandoned his body, Sword Master had already prepared for the worst.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">But Su Jingzhen had given him an unexpected surprise.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">However, Sword Master didn't know about the existence of the Pure Land of Ultimate Bliss within Su Jingzhen. If he had known, he might have remained calm.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">Inside Su Jingzhen's sea of consciousness, a seven-colored glow filled the space.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">Earlier, Su Jingzhen had already tested the Seven-Colored Purifying Flame and confirmed that it could burn away the purest demonic energy emitted by the Demon General. 

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">So although he was nervous and surprised when the Demon General chose to possess him, he wasn't panicked.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">He immediately wrapped his soul consciousness in the Seven-Colored Purifying Flame. 

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">Even though 99% of his Sea of Consciousness had been occupied by the Demon General at that instant, the Seven-Colored Purifying Flame allowed him to hold his ground.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">No matter how the demon general attacked with demonic energy, the Seven-Colored Purifying Flame, one of the most powerful flames in the world, held firm. 

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">The demon general couldn't break through it.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">At this moment, the Demon General's soul formed a phantom figure within the Sea of Consciousness. His expression was fierce.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">"Seven-Colored Purifying Flame! I never expected a mere physical saint to possess such a flame. Child, you continue to surprise me."

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">After this exclamation, the Demon General stared at Su Jingzhen, his eyes filled with temptation.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">"Child, you must already know my identity. That's right, I'm one of the Starry Sky Demons who nearly slaughtered your Immortal Empire in ancient times! I am Yuan Shi, a demon general of the Starry Sky Demons! 

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">There are demon kings and demon lords above me! The power of my demon race is beyond your imagination.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">Last time, you were lucky enough to defend the Starry Sky Rift and protect the Immortal Empire. 

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">But this time, our Demon Lord has awakened, and your realm no longer has anyone capable of standing up to him. 

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">This time, the Immortal Realm will surely fall into chaos and become just another world conquered by the Starry Sky Demons!"

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">As he spoke, Demon General Yuan Shi waved his hand, and images began to appear within Su Jingzhen's sea of consciousness.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">Massive figures towering above the heavens, exuding an aura as deep as the abyss, trampled ancient worlds of all sizes. 

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">Wherever they passed, carnage followed. Countless spaces were engulfed in pure demonic energy.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">Among the seemingly endless Starry Sky Demons, one figure stood out, majestic and imposing. 

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">Just from the images that Yuan Shi had conjured up, Su Jingzhen could sense a presence that could shake the heavens and the earth.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">For a moment, Su Jingzhen was almost overwhelmed by this aura. This was the power of the demon race that Yuan Shi had deliberately shown him.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">Seeing the change in Su Jingzhen's soul that was enveloped in the Seven-Colored Purifying Flame, Yuan Shi spoke again:

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">"You see? This is just a glimpse of the power of the Starry Sky Demons in the endless cosmos. 

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">When my race descends with overwhelming force, what will your Immortal Realm use to resist it? All life in this realm is destined to disappear.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">But you, my friend, are a natural demon seed. Your body can easily absorb my demonic energy. You can become one of the Starry Sky Demons!"

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">"Now you have the chance to become the future demon lord of this realm. It's up to you to seize it."

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">Yuan Shi's words were full of temptation. If Su Jingzhen's will wasn't strong, he might have succumbed.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">At this moment, Su Jingzhen's soul showed a look of longing. His acting skills had always been flawless.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">Seeing this change in expression, Yuan Shi became even more excited.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">Before Su Jingzhen could speak, he continued:

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">"I am sincerely offering you this opportunity. If you refuse, I can easily explode your Sea of Consciousness. You will be destroyed, leaving nothing behind.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">Since you've reached this level as a body cultivator in such an environment, you're clearly no fool. You should know what the right choice is."

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">As he finished speaking, his demonic aura surged again, and Su Jingzhen felt his sea of consciousness fill to the brim. 

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">If Yuan Shi went all out and self-destructed, Su Jingzhen's Sea of Consciousness wouldn't be able to withstand it. 

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">Su Jingzhen believed that Yuan Shi was capable of mutual destruction.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">Under such a combination of temptation and threat, few could resist.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">Su Jingzhen's face showed a hint of fear.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">"How do I know if what you've shown me is real? And I know my own limitations. Becoming a demon lord is beyond my reach. 

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">But if my mere physical body can defeat an Immortal Emperor-level demon like you, then I will have achieved fame. 

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">At the very least, my name will be recorded in the annals of the Immortal Realm, with a page dedicated to me! Go ahead, do it!"

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">With that, Su Jingzhen closed his eyes, appearing ready to face death with composure.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">Of course, he had secretly mobilized the world power of the Pure Land of Ultimate Bliss, just in case Yuan Shi really decided to self-destruct.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">Seeing this, Yuan Shi was stunned.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">If Su Jingzhen died heroically and left his name in history, then Yuan Shi, a mighty demon general, would only have taken down a mere physical saint. 

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">That would be a terrible trade!

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">"You... you...

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">I, a demon general, am at the Immortal Emperor level in your Immortal Realm. My word is my bond!"

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">Su Jingzhen opened his eyes, glanced at him, and then closed them again.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">"Do it!"

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">"You...

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">Fine, fine!

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">I swear by the supreme Demon Lord of the Starry Sky Demons and the eternal glory of my race that if you cooperate with me, I will make you the Demon Lord of this realm!"
