Chapter 896: Chapter 3: The Conflict Between Immortals and Demons (Subscription Request)

Spirit World, boundless and vast.

This is the region where the will of life’s spirit resides.

It can be extremely small or immensely vast, depending on the strength of one’s own spirit will.

An ordinary mortal’s spirit world might be as cramped as a thatched hut.

The stronger one’s spirit will, the more vast their spirit world becomes.

The consciousness of the Jade Immortal, bursting with exhilaration into Lin Yuan’s spirit world, did not initially notice the boundless vista of the spirit world.

All of his attention was captured by the towering, majestic figure sitting cross-legged at the center of the spirit world.

“Is this the spirit will?”

The consciousness of the Jade Immortal stood dumbfounded, staring blankly.

As a once Eleventh Layer Jade Immortal, even though his real body had perished, his memory and insight remained nearly intact, and the essence of his spirit will had not weakened much.

But now, compared to the colossal entity in the distance… there was no comparison at all.

The consciousness of the Jade Immortal had interacted with many Jade Immortals of the same level, and everyone’s spirit will was on the same level; even if there were differences, they would not be too significant.

Being able to cultivate to a Jade Immortal? Generally, the spirit will isn’t too weak.

“Am I seizing the Ancestral Master?”

The consciousness of the Jade Immortal couldn’t help but raise such a thought; such a terrifying spirit will couldn’t possibly belong to a mere Jade Immortal.

Only the Ancestor of the Immortal Path, the supreme being across the thirty-three domains of the Immortal Realm, might possess a spirit will of this degree?

“Hmm?”

Lin Yuan’s spirit will opened his eyes, looking down on the minuscule consciousness of the Jade Immortal.

Within the spirit world, one can only rely on the strength of their own spirit will, akin to the reflection of one’s life essence within the river of time.

Lin Yuan’s spirit will index reached more than thirty-three million points, which was formidable even on the Twelfth Layer ultimate plane.

Naturally, it was not something an Eleventh Layer Jade Immortal could compare to.

In fact, when Lin Yuan touched that purple jade slip, he sensed an issue immediately as the consciousness of the Jade Immortal surged upward, spreading along the spirit he had extended.

Lin Yuan could have stopped it then.

But when he realized that this consciousness of the Jade Immortal targeted his spirit consciousness, more precisely his spirit will, Lin Yuan immediately decided not to stop it.

The spirit world was Lin Yuan’s home ground; with the strength of his spirit will, even if the spirit will of a Twelfth Layer Ancestral Master descended, it would likely leave with nothing achieved.

This consciousness of the Jade Immortal invading Lin Yuan’s spirit world was like meat jumping onto the chopping block; naturally, Lin Yuan would not refuse.

After all, the consciousness came from a Jade Immortal, and Lin Yuan’s current strength had not recovered much; resolving this consciousness would still require some methods.

Being in the Immortal Realm, Lin Yuan did not intend to expose his true spirit will, as it might be perceived by the Ancestor of the Immortal Path.

But if the other party fell into his own spirit world… that risk was no longer a concern.

“No.”

“You’re not the Ancestral Master.”

After a brief stupor, the consciousness of the Jade Immortal gradually came to its senses.

It had once heard the Ancestral Master preach and could recognize the aura of the Ancestor of the Immortal Path; the aura spread by Lin Yuan’s spirit will was completely different from that of the Ancestral Master.

And if Lin Yuan were really the Ancestral Master, would he allow him to enter his spirit world?

With the mighty power controlled by the Ancestral Master, a single thought could obliterate him.

However.

Before the consciousness of the Jade Immortal could ponder further.

Everything before its eyes began to plunge into darkness.

“It’s good for someone not very familiar with the Immortal Realm.”

A smile appeared on Lin Yuan’s face as he suppressed the Jade Immortal’s consciousness with a casual flick, and began extracting and browsing through its memories.

Although he had just assimilated the memories of his original identity ‘Gao Wuyou’ and ‘Wu Xiangyan.’

But in the end, both were merely Transcendance Tribulation Stage cultivators, with not much understanding of the deeper and higher-level intelligence of the Immortal Realm.

Yet this consciousness of the Jade Immortal might be different; an Eleventh Layer Jade Immortal already counted as one of the top powerhouses in this part of the Immortal Realm.

Examining the memories of this Jade Immortal’s consciousness would be of great assistance to Lin Yuan.

Several dozen breaths later.

Lin Yuan had completely reviewed the memories of the Jade Immortal’s consciousness.

“Immortal Realm? Demon Abyss?”

Lin Yuan looked thoughtful.

In the memory of his original identity ‘Gao Wuyou,’ there were many pieces of information about the Demon Abyss.

The demons of the Demon Abyss were the existentially deadly enemies of all immortals; any immortal encountering a demon must fight with all their might.

And in the memories of the Jade Immortal consciousness, Lin Yuan gained even more specific knowledge about the Demon Abyss.

The Demon Abyss, as the other face of the Immortal Realm, is the resting place of the Ancestor of the Demon Abyss.

The endless hordes of demons are but the manifestation of the Demonic Qi emitted by the resting Ancestor of the Demon Abyss.

The Immortal Realm and the Demon Abyss are constantly in conflict; every few million to tens of millions of years, part of the consciousness of the Ancestor of the Demon Abyss will awaken.

At that time, the demons deep within the Demon Abyss will crazily invade the Immortal Realm, and numerous Golden Immortals and even Jade Immortals will pour all their efforts into fighting these demons.

The consciousness of the Jade Immortal was named ‘Yun Zhenzi,’ who fell during the great war between immortals and demons nine million years ago.

However, for powerhouses at the level of a Jade Immortal, survival and resurrection strategies had already been prepared during their lifetime.

The reviving consciousness within the purple jade slip was one such method; once touched, the consciousness inside would be activated and then seize the being that touched the jade slip.

Yun Zhenzi, wishing for an easier path of cultivation after his resurrection, had thoughtfully prepared many resources from low to high; just waiting to successfully possess a body and quickly regain his peak condition.

Unfortunately.

Yun Zhenzi chose the wrong person.

“The most dreadful thing about demons is not their strength but their contamination.”

Lin Yuan’s expression slightly hardened, realizing that even as a Jade Immortal, fighting a demon of similar level bore the risk of contamination.
