Merging with Demon Spirits

Chapter 319: Chapter 238: Dragging Him to Hell

Upon seeing Lin Feng’s Nightmare Possession, Hai Wei’s face turned pale. Out of fear, his heart raced, and a surge of blood rushed to his head. His mind buzzed, and he was somewhat bewildered, hardly daring to believe everything he saw.

But the extreme evilness, the instinctual fear and submission from the depths of his soul, made him realize that it was all true.

At this moment, he finally received the answer he longed for.

The two-year-old mystery was finally unveiled.

He finally knew Lin Feng’s secret...

Why Lin Feng’s talent was so demonic and his cultivation speed so fast.

Why he could refine low-level Demon Spirits yet absorb Purple Gold Soul Skills.

Why he could cultivate the ”Fish Dragon Transformation” to the Sixth Transformation in just two years! At the same time, he cultivated top King Level Cultivation Techniques and still reached an impressive stage.

All of this was because of the divine.

Lin Feng refined a god!

He possessed a part of god’s power!

”A god?!”

Like a bolt from the blue, Lin Feng’s body shuddered slightly.

Hai Wei was utterly appalled, and he was no different!

After all, this so-called god was within his body at this very moment.

”Do I have a god inside me?”

Lin Feng’s eyes were somewhat confused.

He never thought that Hai Wei would claim he refined a god?

Was the Nightmare inside him a god?

Does this world truly have gods? Why has no one ever mentioned it!

The Divine Martial Continent and Earth have no gods, nor have any relics of gods been heard of!

If there were truly gods, what’s the point of this battle?

Or is there a realm above the Emperor Realm, and that is god?

”Isn’t it a special Demon Spirit?”

After a while, Lin Feng finally came to his senses and asked with bewilderment.

He always thought the Nightmare was a Demon Spirit on the Exotic Beast Chart, though somewhat special, but how could it be related to gods!

Under Lin Feng’s dark red pupils, Hai Wei could clearly feel the gaze of another soul. Instinctual fear made him keep retreating.

At this moment, he had completely lost the courage to fight and just wanted to flee from here as soon as possible.

If he didn’t know the defensive strength of the Flower Erosion Realm, he would even think of forcibly breaking the barrier.

”Demon Spirit?”

Hai Wei’s face looked exceedingly unsightly.

At this moment, he finally understood that Lin Feng had always been unaware of the terrifying being he had refined.

His guess wasn’t wrong; all the changes began on the Awakening Day two years ago.

On Awakening Day, Lin Feng did not fail in the refinement.

But he never thought that Lin Feng refined not a Demon Spirit, but a god!

”You actually took a god as a Demon Spirit to refine. I must say, you are truly ignorant, and it’s sheer madness—reckless and foolish.”

Hai Wei’s expression was somewhat gloomy: ”You should feel that your life force and soul are gradually being devoured, right.”

When he saw the Nightmare Possession, all the mysteries were solved.

All the hidden talents, the ability to refine Earth Chart Demon Spirits, it was all a ridiculous lie.

”Yes, it’s indeed as you said. I need to devour a massive number of Demon Spirits and Soul Nourishing Pills every day, and my flesh is being slowly assimilated.” Lin Feng nodded, not denying it.

He didn’t consider Hai Wei’s wariness of any importance.

With the Nightmare Possession, Lin Feng was confident he could defeat Hai Wei.

However, he wasn’t in a hurry to attack.

With the Nightmare Possession, the assimilation of the body would accelerate a hundredfold, but compared to this side effect, Lin Feng was more eager to know information about the Nightmare or this so-called ’god’ inside him.

Lin Feng’s response affirmed Hai Wei’s thoughts, but his expression did not relax; on the contrary, it looked even harsher.

”How do you know what’s inside me is a god?”

Lin Feng extended his hand, examining the red Phantom surrounding his body, and continued to ask: ”Can a god be refined? If so, that god is too weak.”

Hai Wei had already accepted the reality by now, and his face slightly regained composure. He said, ”There is currently no existence of gods on the Divine Martial Continent, nor is it possible for gods to perish. What exists inside you is only a Demigod.

Even a Demigod is above all Emperor Realms, a more advanced life form!

Demigods are not a myth; thousands of years ago, there were Demigods on the Divine Martial Continent.

According to my grandfather, perhaps due to the disappearance of the world’s origin, all Demigods perished in just a few decades.

There are also legends that Demigods sought the method to become gods, ultimately causing the damage to the world’s origin, which led to their downfall.”

As if talking about some hidden secret of the Divine Martial Continent, Hai Wei’s expression became somewhat grave:

”On the Divine Martial Continent, there are three sets of Demigod remains. The Dragon King Hall possesses one, which I have seen. The aura from its remains is remarkably similar to the fluctuations from your body.”

Hai Wei slowly explained.

He did not let Lin Feng know about the terror ingrained in his soul and the uncontrollable urge to kneel in worship, which was identical to the feeling when he first saw those remains.

Even his grandfather, the unrivaled strength of the Dragon King, would not evoke such a feeling in him.

This feeling is not something the Human Race possesses.

Humans would only feel an evil and terrifying, irresistible aura, without any urge to worship like this.

Because that is a god of the Divine Martial Continent.

To the people of the Divine Martial Continent, it represents suppression from the body’s origin.

Apart from the aura, Lin Feng’s demon fiend-like talent and incredible comprehension also confirmed Hai Wei’s suspicion.

Aside from a god, what kind of Demon Spirit could enable someone with mediocre aptitude to become a demon fiend overnight, imbuing the Refiner with such astounding talents and abilities?

Lin Feng gained much information from Hai Wei’s mouth.

For example, the world’s origin is damaged, a theory that is currently being verified.

Though he did not fully understand what the world’s origin was, the name alone suggested it might be the core of a world, and if damaged, it spelt impending doom.

It could be confirmed that the Divine Martial Continent was on the brink of destruction, which explained the integration of the Other-dimensional Space Gates with Earth.

”Although I don’t know the situation of the Demon Spirit in your body, it is more than likely that it is a god who, prior to death, transformed into a Demon Spirit using special means, hoping someone would refine it to devour the refiner’s soul and anticipate a future resurrection!”

Hai Wei warned Lin Feng.

He believed that Lin Feng was unaware of the severity of the situation.

”You don’t have many years left. The day the god takes over your body will be your day of death. Then, he will continue to live using your identity.

A god, high above and detached from human emotions. Do you realize what that means for your family and even Earth?”

”So what? Are you trying to persuade me to commit suicide?”

Lin Feng appeared to discern Hai Wei’s intention.

”Before complete assimilation, I’ll end myself early, preventing him from taking my body. And by then, I won’t remain on Earth; I’ll enter the Divine Martial Continent.”

Lin Feng smiled, ”Even if he takes over my body, his powers are unlikely to return to their peak. If he were to return to the Divine Martial Continent, there might be surprises awaiting him.”

Hai Wei’s expression slightly changed, ”That would further disadvantage the Human Race. Regardless, he remains a god of the Divine Martial Continent, with blood on his hands only from your Human Race.”

At this moment, there was extreme unease within his heart.

If things transpired as Lin Feng said, once the god occupied his body, it would surely disrupt the balance of the Divine Martial Continent.

This transformation contained too much uncertainty.

Both good and bad aspects.

The good: the addition of an invincible power, enhancing strength.

The bad: all significant forces will inevitably reshuffle.

As one of the Five Great Forces, Dragon King Hall would undoubtedly be affected.

Should the Demigod regain full power, no one, not even the Dragon King, would match him.

Hai Wei was clear about his grandfather’s prowess, peak of the Emperor Realm, an unrivaled powerhouse, yet likely incapable of resisting against a Demigod.

At that time, beyond submission, there would be no other choice.

And this wasn’t even the worst-case scenario.

Hai Wei looked at Lin Feng, a hint of a cold smile at the corner of his mouth, ”How do you know you are refining it and not the other way around?”

These words quickened Lin Feng’s heartbeat.

Indeed.

The possibility Hai Wei spoke of was very high, not exaggerated fear.

Being a Demigod, why would it hide within a Guardian Divine Artifact, and why disguise itself as a Demon Spirit for someone to refine?

Is it to devour the soul of a genius to restore power, or to occupy a body?

Or perhaps both.

In memory, Ye Qiu refined the Nightmare and fell at the young age of 29.

However, no one ever witnessed Ye Qiu’s corpse with their own eyes.

If following this conjecture, it is highly probable that Ye Qiu from the past assumed a new identity, returning to the Divine Martial Continent, or hiding somewhere on Earth.

”A Demigod cannot be killed; even if you commit suicide, he could survive as a soul and find another host!”

Hai Wei slowly said, looking at Lin Feng, speaking with a serious tone, ”If you are willing, I can take you back to Dragon King Hall, where my grandfather, the Dragon King, is the closest to a Demigod, and he will have a way to resolve the hidden dangers in your body!”

Hai Wei looked at Lin Feng, suggesting.

”Take me back to Dragon King Hall?”

Lin Feng’s mouth carried a hint of mockery, ”Although I’m unsure of your intentions, I won’t let myself become a lamb waiting to be slaughtered.”

”Moreover, compared to this god, I trust you even less!”

Lin Feng’s figure moved, charging toward Hai Wei, palms gathering lightning, as faint words emerged with unwavering determination, ”Do you really think I’m afraid of this god? It’s just a soul body. If angered, even a god I would drag to hell!”
