Shimmering pure golden eyes condescendingly stared down at the black-haired youth, curiosity filled her gaze.
Each second, her Divine Soul seemed to be invading Yun Che's mind and soul, his resistances crumbling like rusted metal, incapable of stopping the invasion of the Golden Crow.
Yet, there was not a single sign of panic on Yun Che's face. A small smile adorned his face, his eyes releasing a golden hue, as he stared at the two pure golden eyes with an amused gaze.
"If it's the fight you want, I don't mind entertaining you."
"You will fight this noble one? Hahaha! This noble one hasn't heard such a joke in a long time! What can you even do with your puny strength of Sovereign Profound Realm, tell me?" She asked, her voice dripping with sarcasm.
Despite it being only a small Soul Fragment left behind by the Golden Crow, it held the strength of a genuine Divine Realm. For someone who hasn't even reached the peak of the Sovereign Profound Realm, it was impossible for him to do anything to her.
"Is that so?" Yun Che's lips curled up, the golden glow within his eyes intensifying. A terrifyingly overbearing pressure started to emanate from his body, his eyes turning that of a reptile, staring directly at the Golden Crow with increasing arrogance.
Crimson Profound Energy started to spill out from his body, turning his surroundings into a chaotic mess due to its berserk nature.
"This… Azure Dragon Origin Soul!?" The Golden Crow blurted loudly, her voice unable to hide her blatant astonishment and confusion. "Not only did he give you such a pure bloodline, but he even gifted you with his Origin Soul?!"
Giving one Origin Soul was the same as bidding farewell to the living world. Once the Origin Soul was given, the Soul Fragment would vanish from the world as it would not have any power left to sustain itself any longer.
The Golden Crow was astonished to see that Azure Dragon not only gifted him such a pure bloodline, but he even gifted him his Origin Soul; Azure Dragon was the leader of True Gods, for him to choose Yun Che for such a legacy, the Golden Crow was confused.
"Still not giving up?" Yun Che inquired, his power increasing with each passing second.
"Humph! Indeed, you surprise this noble one once again. But what if Azure Dragon gave you his Origin Soul? With your strength, you cannot bring out its full strength even if you wanted to; this much is not enough to make this noble one yield! This just makes this noble one want to make you her heir more and more!"
"A stubborn one, aren't you?" Yun Che chuckled. "Well then, don't mind me. I will be doing a little experiment on you."
"This—!?" The pure golden eyes widened in horror. "Are you mad?! You are merging your soul with Azure Dragon God… Your soul won't be able to bear such a burden and would explode. Stop this instant!"
"Come on~ Don't be a party popper now." Yun Che smirked like a madman. "Things are just starting to get fun!"
Since the day he had gotten Azure Dragon God's Soul, Yun Che has already planned on merging his soul with the Origin Soul of Azure Dragon; to evolve his soul to that of the same level as that of a True God!
If Yun Che claimed to be second when it came to comprehension, then no one would claim to be first; this included even the Creation Gods.
After spending day and night comprehending the structure of his and Azure Dragon Soul—backed by the [Menu]—it was no surprise that Yun Che was able to comprehend it.
Amidst this, only a single piece was missing; to merge both souls together, he needed someone to pressurize the souls, compact them so they can be merged seamlessly.
And who would be better than a fellow True God when it came to pressurizing his soul?
The space instantly became unstable, unable to bear the burden of a True God's Soul as a massive silhouette of Azure Dragon started to form in the sky. It was so massive that from below, one could only see the head yet it had covered the whole valley with it!
In its original form, Azure Dragon was bigger than even the Blue Pole Star. Even in its miniature form, the suppression it released was enough to make anyone filled with despair and fear.
"Madman! Incomprehensibly madman! What did Azure Dragon see in you?!" The Golden Crow started to panic. Indeed, with his current strength, Yun Che shouldn't be able to do anything to her. But if he really succeeded in completely merging his soul with Azure Dragon, then even she would be left at his mercy.
This horrified and excited her at the same time. In front of her eyes, she was seeing a miracle where a mortal was turning his soul into that of a True Dragon God!
One should know, even during the Primordial Era, mortals would never be able to become True Gods. And now, in front of her eyes, she was witnessing a scene that could only be described as a miracle that could only be performed by the Ancestral Goddess herself!
"Hahahaha!" Yun Che laughed hysterically as his senses were assaulted by an unimaginable pain. Despite his max [Pain Resistance], the pain was so massive that it seemed to even bypass it.
{Yun Che!} Jasmine shouted in worry. She had no idea he was planning on doing something like this!
His body started to break down, unable to bear the burden of the soul that exceeded it by a billion times. In the next instant, a silver pagoda with a slight golden hue appeared above his head, spinning madly, trying its best to keep its host alive.
[Self-Healing], [Restoration] activated fully, healing his body with the Great Way of the Buddha.
"Great Way of the Buddha?! Rage God's Legacy… Just how many legacies does this mortal have?!" The Golden Crow shouted in astonishment while increasing pressure over Yun Che's soul.
She was intelligent enough to see what Yun Che was trying to achieve. But she didn't stop; instead, she increased her soul pressure over his soul. She wanted to see if he would be able to be successful or not.
Yun Che raised his hand and a tattoo of a wheel appeared. In front of the horrified gaze of the Golden Crow, an incredibly dark wheel appeared in his hands as he tightly grasped it.
As if a tsunami had broken, a huge amount of Yin Energy was released and started to nourish Yun Che's body.
The Evil Infant was feeding Yin Energy to her master in the hope of keeping him alive.
"Y-You… Evil Infant?! Why do you have that?! No, why are you able to control it!?" The more the Golden Crow saw, the more she felt like her common sense was being challenged.
Not only did this mortal have so many inheritances, including the inheritance of a Creation God, he even had so many heavenly treasures on him! Worst of all, he even wielded the [Evil Infant], which even Creation Gods and Devils feared!
The moment Yun Che had pulled the [Evil Infant], fear had already filled Golden Crow's heart. After all, this was the weapon that had caused her death.
Now it had appeared in front of her again, of course she would be scared shitless. Perhaps if Yun Che had pulled it before, she might have accepted his request of gifting her bloodline anyways. She didn't want to experience the torturous pain of death once again… especially considering Yun Che also held the Sky Poison Pearl on him, a weapon used in tandem with the Evil Infant to end the Primordial Era.
But this was not the end.
A phoenix cry was heard.
Golden Crow's eyes widened for the tenth time as she shouted now in utter bafflement: "Even Phoenix Soul?! Just what is going on with this mortal!?"
Phoenix flames burst out of his body, latching onto his body, trying its best to purify the excessive Yin Energy that was trying to invade his soul.
Golden Crow pressurized his soul to help in the merging of his soul and Azure Dragon God's Origin Soul.
The Great Way of the Buddha, with the help of Self-Healing and Restoration, tried their best to heal his body and stop it from breaking down.
Evil Infant used Yin Energy to further evolve his body while Phoenix Soul used phoenix flames to purify the excessive Yin Energy that entered his soul.
The whole process looked seamless and perfect.
Even in the Primordial Era, it was impossible to see such a scene, let alone now when millions of years had passed since the Primordial Era.
Finally, Yun Che's body reached its limit as uncountable cracks started to form over it, as if going to break at any moment.
"Now!" Yun Che shouted. In the next instant, Profound Energy in the thousands of miles instantly was pulled. As if a vortex had formed with Yun Che as his center, the unimaginable amount of Profound Energy rushed into it, entering his body like an unstoppable force.
Yun Che raised his hand, and a purple seed appeared there; Heretic God Thunder Seed! When he had used Clairvoyance before, he had teleported the seed to himself.
Without a thought, he ate the seed as the purest form of Thunder Law filled his body, further enhancing it.
"He… He really did it…" Golden Crow muttered absentmindedly.
In front of her eyes, a new True Dragon God was being birthed!
...
No, he won't just become True God. Only his Soul would be promoted to that of a True God. His body wouldn't. It will stop upgrading after his body can bear the minimum pressure from his own Soul.
