Just as Yang Hong was happy that his poison was cured and he only needed to continue coaxing the demonized Heart Cleansing Tea Tree away.
The roars of the Four Spirit Sacred Beasts echoed in his Sea of Consciousness's Dao Palace.
He quickly inspected his Sea of Consciousness.
He saw a strange, pitch-black plant assaulting his Sea of Consciousness's Dao Palace.
This plant resembled a tree but had vines, and the leaves on it were bizarre. Almost every type of tree leaf Yang Hong had ever seen could be found on this tree.
A single, strange flower bloomed on the tree!
It was a terrifying flower covered in trillions of human faces, each face still writhing and wailing.
"Another soul possession?
When did it enter my mind?"
Yang Hong was stunned for a moment, then quickly used his will to close the defenses of the Four Spirit Dao Palace and seized the opportunity to draw this tree-like soul into his Sea of Consciousness.
"Hahaha~ a purple-gold Sea of Consciousness, a thirty-three-li Sea of Consciousness!
This is a reincarnated immortal!"
"Wahaha, I'm rich!"
As soon as Hua Wuyue entered Yang Hong's Sea of Consciousness, she burst into excited laughter upon seeing it.
Her joy and excitement were palpable in her voice.
"Mine~ this is mine!"
Hua Wuyue, still laughing, spread her soul out, beginning to pollute Yang Hong's Sea of Consciousness and search for Yang Hong's soul, preparing to devour him.
She wasn't worried about being counter-killed at all.
The white jade tea leaves she had grown were indeed for detoxification.
However, while detoxifying, she had also integrated her demonic energy and divine sense into Yang Hong's body.
This was how Hua Wuyue was able to enter Yang Hong's Sea of Consciousness without anyone noticing.
However, her luck and abilities only went so far.
She quickly found Yang Hong's soul within the Sea of Consciousness.
"A mere human, to possess a purple-gold Sea of Consciousness is one thing, but for you to cultivate a purple-gold soul!
You must have reincarnated several times, right?"
Seeing Yang Hong's soul, Hua Wuyue couldn't help but exclaim.
Yang Hong, hearing that his purple-gold soul seemed somewhat special, couldn't help but ask.
"Big Sister Tree, what's the significance of soul colors? Can you tell me?
So I can die understanding."
"Eh~ you're not afraid of me? Do you know who I am and what I'm here to do?"
Seeing that Yang Hong's soul showed no fear, she was surprised.
"Big Sister Tree is here for soul possession.
I'm familiar with this."
"You're familiar?"
Hua Wuyue was taken aback by Yang Hong's reply, then said,
"You mean you're the possessor? You possessed the original owner of this body?
That's impossible!
There's no trace of soul possession on this body!"
"Big Sister Tree, you've misunderstood.
I'm accustomed to being possessed."
Yang Hong replied with a smile, leaving Hua Wuyue even more incredulous and stunned.
One could get used to being possessed?
"Ling Bao Tian Zun, stabilize the form; disciple's soul, within the five organs.
Azure Dragon and White Tiger, arrayed in formations; Vermillion Bird and Black Tortoise, guarding me truly."
Instead of answering Hua Wuyue's confusion, Yang Hong recited the **Purification Incantation**.
Seeing that Hua Wuyue did not answer his question about his soul, he dared not delay any longer.
He quickly focused on purification and plunder.
Roar~
Roar~
Screech~
Bellow~
The roars of the Four Spirit Sacred Beasts sounded from Yang Hong's Sea of Consciousness.
Divine lights of blue, white, red, and yellow shone from the void, directly freezing the strange tree that had completely enveloped Yang Hong's Sea of Consciousness.
"Haha~ a mere trick, just a Four Spirit Dao Palace, watch me break it."
Seeing the manifestations of the Four Spirits, Hua Wuyue was not worried and began to transform.
Her massive tree body began to shrink rapidly, while the terrifying flower grew larger.
A strange sound, carrying peculiar resentment, rampaged through Yang Hong's Sea of Consciousness.
As the flower completely covered Yang Hong's Sea of Consciousness, strange roots burrowed into it.
"Haha, you're an immortal, do you think I'm an ordinary demon?
Do you think you can trap me?"
As the roots of the strange flower burrowed into the Sea of Consciousness, Yang Hong felt its power being slowly absorbed.
This meant that this true demon was slightly different from the previous soul possession by a true demon.
However, Yang Hong was not worried.
As long as he killed this true demon, the soul energy he lost would naturally return a hundredfold.
"Heh heh~ I never said I was going to trap you."
Looking at the Four Spirit phantoms rising to the top of his Sea of Consciousness, Yang Hong also smiled.
"Supreme Celestial Stars, ever-changing, never stopping; expel evil and bind demons, protect life and body.
Wisdom bright and pure, mind at peace; three souls eternal, spirit without fall."
The **Purification Incantation** was mainly to borrow the power of the Four Spirits, while the **Heart Cleansing Incantation** utilized the divine power of the Four Spirits to purify the evil that Yang Hong identified within his Sea of Consciousness.
"You're not an immortal! You're a Buddha!"
Hua Wuyue was startled by the change in Yang Hong's scriptures.
The new scripture could actually purify her. Although the purification speed was slow, it was indeed purifying her origin soul.
Perhaps it even contained the ability to convert her.
"Guess."
After reciting the **Heart Cleansing Incantation**, Yang Hong replied playfully, then switched to the **Mysterious Charm Incantation**.
The purpose of the Mysterious Charm Incantation was to use the inexplicable power within the incantation to shatter the soul energy purified from the true demon, turning it into absorbable energy.
Following this, Yang Hong unleashed the eight divine incantations in succession, purifying Hua Wuyue.
Although Hua Wuyue resisted in every way, she was suppressed by Yang Hong.
With the Four Spirit Dao Palace suppressing her, and having already absorbed the soul origin of a true demon before, absorbing another true demon's soul was not as difficult.
"Immortal friend, spare me, and I will willingly serve you."
Seeing that resistance was futile, Hua Wuyue begged for mercy while continuously using her roots to drain Yang Hong's Sea of Consciousness.
"Spare you? Alright, first withdraw all your roots from my Sea of Consciousness."
Seeing her soul shrink from over three hundred feet to less than two hundred feet, Yang Hong was not in a hurry.
"Immortal friend, must we perish together?"
"Heh heh~ the fish will certainly perish, but the net might not break."
"You, immortal friend, do you think I'm beautiful?"
Seeing that hard tactics wouldn't work, Hua Wuyue resorted to soft tactics. The black flower twisted, transforming into a peerlessly beautiful woman who appeared before Yang Hong.
A peerless beauty that perfectly matched Yang Hong's aesthetic.
If Yang Hong hadn't seen Hua Wuyue's grotesque and terrifying original form, he might have been moved for a moment.
However, having seen the original form, Yang Hong only felt greater horror and disgust.
Therefore, Yang Hong remained silent and accelerated the recitation of the eight divine incantations, speeding up the purification of Hua Wuyue.
"Bastard, you forced me! Let's die together!"
Seeing that Yang Hong was indifferent to both hard and soft tactics, Hua Wuyue went berserk and self-destructed her soul within Yang Hong's Sea of Consciousness.
With a bang, terrifying destructive power erupted within Yang Hong's Sea of Consciousness!
"Holy crap! Are all demons so short-sighted?"
Yang Hong quickly recited the **Purification Incantation** loudly, summoning more power from the Four Spirits to protect his Sea of Consciousness.
Rumble~~~
The power of the true demon's soul self-destruction was too great. Yang Hong naturally could not suppress it, and his Sea of Consciousness was churned by monstrous waves.
It seemed as though the Sea of Consciousness would be destroyed in the next moment.
"Character Stats!"
In this moment of crisis, Yang Hong thought of the system.
The familiar attribute panel appeared before Yang Hong's soul.
The monstrous waves in the Sea of Consciousness and the terrifying destructive power instantly subsided under the descent of mysterious rule power.
"Phew~ thankfully I was smart enough.
The system is indeed awesome!"
There were no further accidents.
However, Yang Hong knew that he had only absorbed most of this true demon's soul, with some origin remaining. He had not absorbed it.
