Chapter 649: Purification

Chapter 649: Chapter 649: Purification

Invisible chains of white bone materialized, coiling around Camilla. Yet she seemed oblivious, walking straight toward the Divine Fruit.

Camilla reached out, plucked the dazzling golden Divine Fruit, and with a flash of greed in her beautiful eyes, took a vicious bite.

The moment the golden Divine Fruit was pierced, waves of pure evil and darkness emanated from within, pouring into Camilla’s features.

Camilla devoured the golden Divine Fruit in a few bites, and an endless Dark Power began to emanate from her body.

"NO!!"

Camilla’s face twisted in agony. She let out a piercing shriek, her body trembling uncontrollably.

A ball of golden Divine Fire ignited upon Camilla’s body, burning furiously as it began to evolve her.

"Hahaha!! I, the God of Darkness, am finally reborn! How wonderful! So this is the Void Demon Realm! This is a world I can truly dominate!"

A strange light flashed in Camilla’s beautiful eyes. She laughed imperiously, her body radiating waves of a sinister aura.

"God of Darkness, you dare lay a hand on my woman! Are you looking for death?"

An icy voice rang out from the side. Shu Feng stepped out from a shadow in the garden, his gaze fixed on Camilla, his eyes flashing with bone-chilling killing intent.

"You are... Kahn? This vessel’s husband? You disgust me. Die!"

The God of Darkness’s gaze turned frigid. Countless unfathomable Curse Seals appeared on her snow-white fingers. A Magic Array filled with mystic seals materialized, and a beam of black light shot directly toward Shu Feng.

This was the Attack and Kill Divine Technique mastered by the God of Darkness: Dark Death Light. Although she currently possessed only the Power of a Junior Semi-God, this single Divine Art could slay an Advanced Demigod.

Shu Feng’s eyes were cold. He executed a Shadow Jump and vanished.

The beam of Dark Death Light slammed into the wall behind Shu Feng. The entire structure was instantly corroded by a bizarre darkness, turning to dust that scattered on the wind.

Shu Feng leaped out from the God of Darkness’s shadow, striking at her with his palm.

"Divine Technique: Shadow Jump? Decent Combat Techniques. For a mortal, you’re not bad. A pity you’re facing a Divine Spirit!"

A mocking glint flashed in the God of Darkness’s eyes. Just as she prepared to counterattack, her body suddenly trembled, and she collapsed to her knees.

’What’s going on? Why can’t I control this body?’

A look of horror flashed in the God of Darkness’s eyes. She realized she had no control over her own body.

"Idiot!"

A mocking glint appeared in Shu Feng’s eyes. He grabbed the God of Darkness, entered his Base Space, and tossed her into the Energy Evolution Tower.

"Stop!! Kahn, what are you trying to do?"

"Let me go! Kahn, I can teach you how to ignite the Divine Fire! I can help you ascend to become a Divine Spirit!"

"..."

The God of Darkness was sprayed by countless streams of slime, which formed a large cocoon around her. She continued to struggle and scream from within the egg.

Shu Feng ignored the God of Darkness and asked directly, "To purify the soul of the God of Darkness and turn it into nourishment for Camilla, how much Source Energy is required?"

Countless data streams flowed across the Central Analyzer, conducting the analysis.

"Camilla’s body does not contain the soul of the God of Darkness, but rather a memory fragment containing a trace of her power. Camilla absorbed the Power of the Ancient Dark God from the Andoras World, which is why she was influenced by the memory fragment within that power."

"Consuming three units of High-level Source Power will allow Camilla to return to normal and absorb the Dark God’s power. Do you wish to expend this power to have Camilla continue her evolution?"

"Yes!"

With a thought from Shu Feng, an incredibly potent High-level Source Power surged from a series of pipes. As it was injected into Camilla’s body, it instantly purged her system.

Streams of black liquid poured from Camilla’s body, washed away by the surrounding slime.

Shu Feng asked curiously, "Can the residual power of the Ancient Dark God allow Camilla to advance to the level of a Divine Spirit?"

A line of text appeared on the Central Analyzer: "Negative. The Power of the Ancient Dark God can, at most, only allow her to evolve into an Advanced Demigod."

It is extremely difficult for a mortal to advance to the level of a Divine Spirit. This evolutionary leap in life form requires an immense amount of resources. The fastest method is Ascension to Divinity through faith.

However, in the Andoras World, there are only two major churches: that of the Skill God and the Snake of Fear. All the Power of Faith is divided between them, so it is impossible for anyone else to use the Power of Faith to become a Divine Spirit.

A line of text appeared from the Central Analyzer: "It is possible to consume the remaining Source Energy and three units of the Void Demon Realm Origin’s boon to have her ignite the Divine Fire once more and advance to become a Void Demon King!"

Shu Feng said calmly, "The boon from the Void Demon Realm Origin is a rare opportunity, not something one can actively seek. It’s the key to my own evolution into a Demigod! I’ll have to find another way for her to become a Divine Spirit!"

’As long as I have enough High-level Source Energy,’ Shu Feng thought, ’I can just inject her with a Divine Format and have her evolve directly into a Void Demon King.’

’I still have ways of obtaining High-level Source Energy, but getting my hands on the boon from the Void Demon Realm Origin is next to impossible.’

「Outside the walls of the Imperial Palace in Holy Eagle City.」

A six-armed, humanoid Demon with a head larger than its body and crimson eyes charged toward the Imperial Palace. It had caught the scent of its favorite prey in that direction.

As the six-armed humanoid Demon neared the Imperial Palace, it saw a dense, bizarrely-shaped swarm of Demons surging toward the same location.

From atop the walls, countless Arrows rained down like meteors, piercing the bodies of the Demons and eliciting wretched screams.

"Open the gates! Open the gates and let us in!"

Hundreds of elite Adventurers fought for their lives against the Demons below the wall. Their leader, a burly Legendary Sword Hero and the guild master of the Adventurer’s Guild, William, roared in fury.

"Guild Master William! Without an order from His Majesty or the Queen, I cannot open the gate! It is my duty!"

The Commander of the Forbidden Guard, Atiyaga, said sternly, his brow furrowed.

William roared, "Damn you! Do you want to watch us all die out here? We are subjects of the Wind Kingdom! Isn’t it the Royal Family’s duty to protect its people?!"

Atiyaga replied coldly, "My apologies. Without an order, I cannot open the gate."

"Open the gate. Let them in!"

Just then, Hilea appeared on the ramparts. Clad in Silver Battle Armor, she looked both majestic and stunningly beautiful as she gave the command.
