Supreme Emptiness

Chapter 1556: Chapter 1594: The Demon Moon Arrives

What kind of person is the Evil Crow Venerable?

He was insidious by nature, how could he not sense the Young City Lord’s greed?

He secretly felt anger in his heart: "Damn giant remnant, eyeing my possessions!"

But he dared not show his emotions.

Because he was just a soul, if he angered the opponent, he would likely be unable to escape their pursuit.

His gaze shifted, and a cruel gleam flashed in his eyes.

"Oh, interested in my treasure, are you?"

"Then let me show you its power!"

"Just in time, I also need a fresh corpse for possession."

The Evil Crow Venerable was delighted as he eyed the powerful body of the Young City Lord.

What a case of having a pillow delivered when sleepy!

This is it!

Feigning reluctance, he hesitated and said, "Fellow Daoist, are you interested in my treasure?"

The Young City Lord’s eyes sparkled with mockery: "What, are you unwilling?"

He secretly clenched his fist, wary of the Evil Crow Venerable escaping into the void.

With his keen eyesight, he could see the extraordinary nature of the tattered cloth.

Since such a valuable treasure was encountered, how could he not take it?

It didn’t matter whether the Evil Crow Venerable willingly handed it over.

Because he would leave no hidden threats!

The Evil Crow Venerable sensed the other’s intention to silence him, feigned ignorance, and hesitated:

"I, a mere remnant soul, carrying this treasure is like a three-year-old holding a gold brick and wandering about."

"Even if you don’t want it, others will."

"I might as well be generous and offer it to you, fellow Daoist."

"Just asking that you spare me, considering we’re both enemies of Jiang Fan."

The Young City Lord smiled: "Of course."

"As long as you offer it, sparing your life is a given."

With no doubts left, the Evil Crow Venerable threw the Jade Box over from a distance.

The Young City Lord cautiously caught it from afar, ensuring there were no traps before feeling secure holding it.

Squinting, he examined the tattered cloth, asking, "Where did this item come from? What’s its purpose?"

The Evil Crow Venerable honestly replied, "It was taken from Jiang Fan."

"As for its effect, it is used like this..."

His words were cut short as a cruel light flashed in the Evil Crow Venerable’s eyes, suddenly triggering a thought.

The Jade Box abruptly exploded!

The tattered cloth, wrapped in a strand of the Evil Crow Venerable’s soul, fiercely struck the Young City Lord’s chest.

The Young City Lord realized it was a trap, promptly swung his right fist in an attempt to blast away the approaching cloth piece.

But upon contact, he felt an unbelievably terrifying force.

Despite his Body Refinement physique, he couldn’t resist even a bit.

His hand shattered in an instant.

Then, the cloth pressed against his chest, piercing right through.

The Young City Lord was in disbelief that he had been outwitted by a piece of tattered cloth!

He tried to heal the injury, but the Evil Crow Venerable wouldn’t give him the chance.

Once more, he maneuvered the cloth back for another strike.

Poof!

This time, it shattered half of his body.

And the Evil Crow Venerable showed no sign of stopping.

If the pressure continued, his soul would be extinguished as well.

In this life-threatening moment, he gritted his teeth, spiritedly dashed out of his body, burrowing rapidly into the void, releasing a venomous roar:

"Evil Crow Venerable, this Young City Lord will remember you!!"

A complete Dharma Image Realm expert was actually outwitted to death by a mere soul.

It was truly a great humiliation!

The Evil Crow Venerable’s face was stern: "This brat was pretty decisive!"

He intended to destroy him completely but hadn’t expected his soul to escape.

This could pose a hidden threat.

But there was no time to worry about that now.

Gazing at the remaining half of the fresh body, he decisively dove in.

"Hahaha! I’m back!"

"Though incomplete, a Half-Giant inherits half the bloodline of an Ancient Giant, possessing powerful regenerative abilities."

"Before long, it can recover completely."

At this point, he reached into his bosom, feeling a sensation.

A black bone engraved with five small figures was drawn out.

"Hahaha, it’s actually a strike from the Five Phases Realm!"

"Heaven hasn’t forsaken me, heaven hasn’t forsaken me!"

The Evil Crow Venerable was ecstatic.

Not only did he succeed in possession, but he also re-secured a major killing treasure!

"Even though I lost all my cultivation after possession, the body’s strength of a Dharma Image Realm remains!"

"Coupled with a strike from the Five Phases Realm, what does Jiang Fan have to fight me?"

"Unless, he breaks through to the Divinity Transformation Realm and uses that domineering Domain again!"

With this thought, he carried the broken body away quickly.

To contend with Jiang Fan, he needed to be in peak condition.

Not long after his departure.

A half-dark, half-human soul of the Young City Lord emerged from the void.

His face was full of hatred: "You undying thing!"

Failing to kill Jiang Fan, he lost his body and magical treasure instead.

But he had no time to dwell on this; the urgent matter was to quickly find a suitable body.

The soul of a Half-Giant wasn’t an ordinary Central Earth soul.

They couldn’t remain in soul form for long.

Visibly, his darkened soul was turning into wisps of black smoke, disappearing into the void.

If he didn’t find a body in time, his fate was predictable.

But where could he find a corpse in such a short time?

In his current soul state, he couldn’t even kill someone for possession.

In his anxious search.

Suddenly, on a cliff ahead, hung a girl’s corpse in a pink dress.

She was very beautiful, with flawless jade-like skin.

A faint demonic aura lingered on her body.

It seemed she had just died not long ago.

The Young City Lord frowned and murmured: "Was that body there before?"

He realized he had no impression of it at all.

Maybe he hadn’t been paying attention?

Staring at the girl’s body, he hesitated for a moment, then shook his head:

"With cultivation only at the Ninth Layer of Core Formation Perfection, the body is too weak."

"And it’s a woman!"

"Such a body, it’s not worth possessing!"

Just as he was about to leave.

Two female figures from the Heavenly Mechanism Pavilion approached cautiously.

They were Shang Shiqiu and Leng Qingzhu, who had stayed behind at the Heavenly Mechanism Pavilion.

Sensing the powerful fluctuations in this place, they came over promptly.

Upon closer inspection, they realized it was the lingering aura of a Divinity Transformation Realm expert, and they grew heavy-hearted.

"Senior Sister Leng, there’s been a Divinity Transformation battle here, we must return to the sect quickly to hide."

Shang Shiqiu said solemnly.

Leng Qingzhu was also frightened and nodded promptly.

But as they turned, they suddenly saw the corpse hanging on the cliff.

She covered her mouth in shock: "Isn’t that... Demon Moon?"

When Jiang Fan held Demon Moon captive, she and Jian Linyuan and others were present.

Of course, they recognized this little Priest of the Demon Race, Demon Moon.

Shang Shiqiu was astonished: "Why is she here?"

"Never mind, she’s Jiang Fan’s wife with whom he shares a Heart Connection Worm bond."

"We must hurry and save her."

Oh?

A gleam of cunning flashed in the Young City Lord’s eyes.

This body was actually Jiang Fan’s woman?

Now bereft of a body and treasure, he couldn’t kill Jiang Fan, nor rescue Princess Zi Jiang.

If he could disguise himself as Jiang Fan’s woman, and strike from behind, wouldn’t that...

The Young City Lord hesitated several times, then gritted his teeth and said:

"If I have to be a woman, so be it!"

"As long as I can kill Jiang Fan, what harm is there in enduring humiliation?"

He immediately seized the chance while the two women weren’t paying attention and quickly entered the body.

Leng Qingzhu swiftly flew towards the cliff, suddenly pausing mid-flight, murmuring to herself:

"I seem to remember someone saying Demon Moon is an obstacle to Jiang Fan’s Divinity Transformation?"

"If we save her, won’t Jiang Fan just slay her with a sword?"

After a moment’s hesitation, she shook her head, saying:

"No matter, let’s leave it to Jiang Fan to handle!"
