“Conscients… can’t be devoured?”
Blackless God bitterly answered, “It’s absolutely impossible to devour us! If it wasn’t voluntary, Lord Lu, you could have never taken her consciousness. Without her consciousness, I…”
The Skygod had no idea if he should curse Whiteless God or simply curse his own bad luck. If not for Whiteless God’s consciousness, Blackless God could have escaped. However, he had only survived the Consciousness Megaverse because of her.
Just what had happened?
Why had Whiteless God cared so much about Lu Yin?
Blackless God was incapable of understanding human emotions.
This was no different from how Whiteless God herself had never been able to understand why she had been burdened by Ming Yan’s feelings. That confusion had led to the current situation.
Lu Yin lowered his hand.
Blackless God let out a sigh of relief. “Thank you, Lord Lu, for sparing me.”
Lu Yin looked down at Blackless God. “When did I say that I wouldn’t kill you?”
Blackless God froze, unable to react. At that moment, a star exploded, and the power of the Cosmic Art combined with physical strength that had reached the biological limits of the megaverse, and Blackless God’s body was torn to pieces. From the remains, his consciousness erupted, and he cursed Lu Yin, hating the human. “Lu Yin, you will die a terrible death! The day will come when you are killed by the Spirit Nidus or the Consciousness Megaverse! Your death will be miserable! Miserable…”
Lu Yin’s consciousness surged from behind him, shooting towards Blackless God.
The consciousness frantically tried to flee, but escape was impossible. The star of consciousness descended, acting like a vortex as it devoured Blackless God’s consciousness.
The Skygod was horrified. “The Consciousness Megaverse’s conscients can’t be devoured! You’re the only one, Lu Yin. You are my Consciousness Megaverse’s greatest enemy! You’re an even greater threat than the Spirit Nidus! Lu Yin, one day, you will be destroyed by us! You will die… and your death will be terrible…”
Blackless God’s voice grew weaker as his consciousness was devoured and pulled into Lu Yin’s star.
The vitality and thoughts of the consciousness were erased the moment it was fully consumed. Ultimately, only the purest consciousness remained with Lu Yin.
He had not killed Blackless God just because they had been enemies, but also because Lu Yin had wanted to test if he could devour a conscient from the Consciousness Megaverse.
The results were clear: he could.
Whiteless God’s sacrifice had granted Lu Yin a possibility; he could strengthen his own consciousness without limits by devouring others’ consciousness.
Lu Yin could improve his consciousness by devouring the Consciousness Megaverse’s conscients. To that megaverse, he would be their greatest enemy. This was because the Spirit Nidus could only destroy the conscients, not devour them.
Once Blackless God was completely gone, Lu Yin stood alone in outer space, staring at his star of consciousness.
It had grown much larger.
It was absolutely terrifying. His consciousness had been greatly strengthened, and it was clearly at the Universe level now. No, he should call it the Dukkhan level, as that was comparable to the Universe-level strength of Lu Yin’s star of consciousness.
Lu Yin was not himself a Dukkhan, or even an Ortuser, and yet his consciousness had already surpassed his own cultivation.
He had taken a shortcut.
The Consciousness Megaverse could give him endless amounts of consciousness, while the Spirit Nidus could give him endless sequence particles.
It seemed that the two megaverses had transformed into supplements for Lu Yin’s growth.
He turned and looked back, seeing that the Origin Progenitor was slowly wearing down True God. The man was being pushed closer to death, and he could do nothing to stop it.
In another direction, Lu Yuan’s fist knocked Verdant King down. The Verdant Sage was still holding Yan Gang in a hand, but almost all of the endless swarm of insects had been eliminated.
On a battlefield of this level, no matter how many insects appeared, they would all be useless.
Yan Gang coughed up blood. While he was being protected by Verdant King, even the smallest of shockwaves from this battlefield was more than enough to kill Yan Gang.
His right leg was gone, removed by a shockwave. He had not stopped bleeding, and the pain was bone-deep.
He deeply regretted his actions and not turning in his Nest.
He felt something in his heart, and he turned to look into the distance. At the moment, Lu Yin was staring straight at Yan Gang.
The man felt as though he was thrown a hundred years into the past. At that time, they had both been on Earth, and Yan Gang had looked down on Lu Yin, feeling arrogant and superior. He had treated Lu Yin as a native of Earth who could be easily crushed.
A hundred years had passed in the blink of an eye, and Yan Gang could have never imagined encountering Lu Yin in such a way after so long.
As the man stared at Lu Yin, he begged with his eyes. Yan Gant wanted to live, not die.
Lu Yin was also staring at Yan Gang and reliving his moments from Earth. A hundred years had passed so quickly… What would happen after a thousand years? 10,000? 100,000? 1 million, or even 1 billion years? What would become of his universe and megaverse?
Lu Yin was destined to become a legend, but that meant saying far too many farewells.
Boom!
Hongyan Mavis struck Verdant King’s head, and he spat out a mouthful of blood that splattered onto Yan Gang's face. The scorching blood melted the man’s skin, and he shrieked, "Kill me! Please, kill me!"
Yan Gang was not afraid, but was rather simply suffering such agony that he preferred to die.
Verdant King casually smashed Yan Gang's skull. The man no longer held any value, and even True God was about to meet his end.
In front of the insect, both Lu Yuan and Hongyan Mavis charged.
The tension left Verdant King’s face. "I want to buy my life."
Lu Yuan and Hongyan Mavis instinctively stopped attacking, though they surrounded the Verdant Sage.
"Buy your life?"
Verdant King turned to face Lu Yin and spoke slowly, "I know that you oppose us, but we never intended to be your enemies. We insects only reproduce on an instinctual level, and if you don’t want the other insects, I can have them all die. I can give you my Nest."
Lu Yin arched a brow. "You really want to live."
By Possessing the green furball Verdant Sage, Lu Yin understood that nothing mattered more to the Verdant Sages than survival. This was not merely their natural instincts, but rather the Immortal Lord’s command.
