Chapter 1466: Chapter 1055: Holding Back

"Have you thought of a way to subdue that skull?" The voice of the Mutated Skull echoed in my ears, still sneaky and a bit lewd.

Jiang Yuan didn’t answer directly, but instead reminded, "That’s indeed the skull of an Outer Heaven Demon, its remaining obsession is formidable. If you were to fuse with it, you might risk being assimilated. Do you dare to try?"

The Mutated Skull was suddenly stunned, truly wanting to become stronger, because who doesn’t want immense power? But the problem is, you can’t just go and die!

What if the skull still has the resentment of the Outer Heaven Demon, and I’m just a mere little skull, how could I contend?

But the great opportunity is right here, losing it easily is too regrettable; what if there’s no remaining resentment, and I get to take control directly? Fusing with the skull of the Outer Heaven Demon is practically a step to the top!

"I... want to! But I’m afraid of death." The Mutated Skull hummed softly, "How about giving me more time, refining the absorbed resentment, then devouring more to become stronger before fusing with the skull of the Outer Heaven Demon."

That’s acceptable, Jiang Yuan thought about it, not in a rush, perhaps because the Fiery Evil Demon Monarch’s skull is too large that a Beastman Body can’t carry it, so the system prompts that a full set is necessary for equipping.

Next, it’s essential to find the Fiery Evil Demon Monarch’s arms, legs, wings, and torso, and purify them one by one, which is a significant project. Leave some time, allowing the Mutated Skull to become stronger before fusing, making it more stable.

Honestly, he couldn’t dislike this skull’s resentment that was constantly trying to lure him earlier.

Moreover, it has helped him break the Illusion Realm several times, deserving credit for hard work even if not for success. So why not wait a bit longer?

"Then hurry up and refine, when you can devour more resentment, I’ll take you to the war remnants to shatter more Illusion Realms, letting you feast enough. Once you’re strong enough, the probability of successfully fusing with the skull will be higher."

"Alright! Thank you, Master! I won’t disappoint your high expectations, fusing with the skull of the Outer Heaven Demon, and becoming your strong supporter in the future!"

Tsk tsk, see that? As long as there are sufficient benefits, even the Mutated Skull’s resentment praises extravagantly!

Coming out of the Floating Market, Bai Yunqi had already arranged the banquet, and the cultivators participating in the purification action were all waiting for Mr. Jiang to be seated for the feast.

They’re not outsiders, no need for formalities, besides, there are still many demon bodies needing purification in the war remnants, everyone coming out for a meal is to rest and quickly restore their Spiritual Power, naturally not dealing with unnecessary formalities.

A meal that all guests enjoyed.

Yan Xuan, satisfied, drank two more cups of Spiritual Wine, volunteering to carry everyone into the war remnants, to prevent getting dispersed due to the large number of people.

Thus, after a satisfying meal and a moment of meditation and cultivation, they re-entered the World Tree branch dungeon. She transformed into a giant size, allowing everyone to sit comfortably on her shell.

"Not sure how many years of cultivation merits accumulated, today I am fortunate enough to ride the Divine Beast Black Tortoise!"

"Quickly! Take out the Memory Stone to capture the memory!"

"Hold tight, don’t get scattered."

"Ashamed, ashamed, helping with purification is minor, yet I am so valued by the master and borne by the Divine Beast Black Tortoise..."

...

The cultivators of the Ancient Ten Great Sects, sitting on Yan Xuan’s back, were both excited and anxious, Xie Chenyuan’s face flushed with excitement.

Yet, Little Lark, as a core member of the courtyard and future one of the Four Symbols, curiously hopped around, "Old master, usually you like soaking in Jade Platform or Lotus Pool, will moss grow on this shell? Can you feel it when scrubbing during a bath?"

"I’m a Divine Beast, how could I not know the most basic Cleaning Technique? How could it grow moss?" Yan Xuan replied with a smile, "The shell is thick, but perception remains, you hopping around and pecking with your little beak makes me itch. Sit tight, I’m entering the war remnants now."

Ensured the sacred aura enveloped everyone, she stepped into the pitch-black vortex entrance.

No illusions, nor randomized teleportation, everyone sat steadily on Yan Xuan’s back, located at the entrance of the war remnants. Jiang Yuan examined the map, a large light point representing all members, shining at the entrance.

"Yan Xuan, ten o’clock direction." Based on the last experience of searching for the skull, he promptly locked onto the closest south direction from the entrance, unsure which part might be suppressed here.

The holy light centered on Yan Xuan, not only protecting everyone from polluted aura interference, but also illuminating several meters around.

Various ruins piled up, hard to recognize what buildings they used to be.

Instead, it reminded Jiang Yuan of dreams he had, and a webpage farming game he played — collecting resources, clicking to repair ruins, then they transform into buildings or landscapes.

"Once the war remnants are purified, won’t I have to repair the ruins one by one as well?" Thinking of this, he felt a bit daunted, definitely a substantial undertaking!

Looking up at the sky shrouded in black mist, truly hoping to acquire this ground soon, to see what’s above!

But after all, it’s a fragment of the Celestial Realm, the city walls in Kunlun Divine Mountain remain in slow restoration progress, the Sun Palace ruins, restoring them fully might not be so simple.

Yan Xuan walked steadily, sitting on her back, swaying slightly, just feeling drowsy when suddenly hearing Ling Di shout, "Woof woof! What is that ahead? Could it be the demon body we’re searching for?"

Shi Hu rubbed groggy eyes, face full of beatific confusion, "Where? Where now? How come I don’t see anything?"
