Chapter 5429: Who devoured who?

Translator: 549690339

If it had known this would happen, it would not have considered whether to possess the body or not. It would have directly devoured the primordial spirit. Now, it had chosen the wrong direction and used the wrong strength. The giant sky-devouring crocodile felt as if it had used all its strength but had missed. It simply made people vomit blood.

It would have been fine if it was just uncomfortable, but the key was that it had lost the upper hand at this moment. Dont forget that it was not the only one who had the ability to devour primordial spirits. It was really a mistake that could cause eternal regret!

Ever since hed learned the essence of spirit devour from the nine infants during the ancient trials, Lin Yi had only been using the hand of soul devouring, but that didnt mean he wouldnt use it no matter what. He was just afraid of the side effects before, so he didnt use it easily. Now that he was forced to this point, if he didnt make a move now, hed be the host instead! What was there to worry about?

The giant sky-devouring crocodile was about to activate its devour ability to save itself when Lin Yi made the first move. It was like a life-and-death battle. It had just stepped halfway into the arena and was not even ready when Lin Yis axe was already coming down on it.

Youre overestimating yourself! The giant sky-devouring crocodile snorted in exasperation. Although it was surprised that the other party could devour primordial spirits and it had fallen into such a pa.s.sive situation, it did not lose its confidence. Devouring was its unique talent. Moreover, its primordial spirit was at the top level in the small ancient pugilistic world. Who could devour the other?

The two primordial spirits wanted to devour each other. This was a war that belonged to the primordial spirits.

However, the giant sky-devouring crocodile was once again overwhelmed with shock. It was shocked to find that the other partys devouring ability was not any weaker than its own. What was even more exaggerated was that the other party was actually a xuansheng stage primordial spirit!

Just this was a death sentence for the sky-devouring crocodile. Not only did it lose the initiative, but the opponents strength was also far above its own. It was like two armies fighting. In front of Lin Yi, it collapsed with a single touch without any resistance.

The sky-devouring crocodiles essence spirit was devoured by Lin Yi.

Phew Lin Yi let out a breath of relief. This result was within his expectations, but it was his first time doing it for real. He was glad that it went so smoothly.

The devouring continued. Although the sky-devouring crocodile couldnt fight back, it was destined that no matter how smooth it went, the process wouldnt be short. After all, it was an essence spirit at the peak of the nascent Soul Stage, almost half a step to the mystic level. This amount of consciousness was not small for Lin Yi.

Just as he was devouring the spirit, Lin Yis aura suddenly became unstable, and the fluctuation grew bigger and bigger, as if it was about to burst out.

Hes going to break through? Bing Wuqing, who was at the side, was shocked when she saw this scene. Lin Yi had always been unfathomable to her, but she had never known his exact cultivation level. After feeling the strong primordial spirit fluctuation, she couldnt help but be stunned. It was actually the legendary xuansheng stage!

Not only that, Lin Yi was still breaking through!

Stay away! Bing Wuqing immediately reacted and pushed Chu Tianlu to the side. She ignored her own injuries and stayed by Lin Yis side to protect him. The process of breaking through couldnt be disturbed by any external factors, or the consequences would be unimaginable.

Swallowing the sky-devouring crocodiles essence spirit was an unexpected move. He only wanted to use the soul-devouring hand, but the situation forced him to use it. What surprised him the most was that hed unknowingly reached this stage-this was a chance for him to break through!

At the level of the mysterious Ascension stage, every level was extremely difficult to break through. This was a real surprise for Lin Yi. He was already at the peak of the early stage of mysterious Ascension, and if he broke through successfully this time, he would be in the mid-stage of mysterious Ascension!

However, Lin Yi wasnt as overjoyed as he thought he would be. It wasnt the best way for him to force a breakthrough by devouring the soul. There were many hidden dangers.

This hidden danger did not just come from the opportunity itself, but mainly from the sky-devouring crocodile. Because this thing was not a pure primordial spirit at all, but a Cannonball with poison!

Unless he was as talented as the nine infants, devouring the spirit would have consequences. This was why Lin Yi didnt want to devour the spirit and only used the hand. He couldve done it a long time ago if he wanted to break through, but the path of cultivation was like walking on thin ice, and it didnt end well for him.

This time, Lin Yi was forced into a corner.

He was forced to do this-this was what Lin Yi was thinking. Although hed gotten an unexpected surprise from breaking through, trouble came along with it. Lin Yi realized that his strengthened spirit wasnt as pure as it used to be.

While devouring the other partys primordial spirit, it was inevitable that some of the other partys emotions and memories would be absorbed, especially the obsession before being devoured. This was a subtle influence, and no matter how strong a person was, they could not completely eliminate it. They could only rely on their own strong willpower to suppress it to the edge of their consciousness. After a long time, these things would gradually fade and disappear with the wind.

With Lin Yis willpower, if the opponent was just a normal person, he wouldnt be affected in any way. His willpower was enough to control it as he wished. The problem was that the opponent was a sky-devouring crocodile that left a mark in the history of the ancient martial world. Who knew how many years old monsters had lived!

This huge amount of information was overwhelming. Although Lin Yi swallowed its essence spirit, it felt like a snake swallowing an elephant. Lin Yi was about to die from being stuffed to death. His head was in so much pain that it felt like it was going to explode!

It was just a few seconds, but Lin Yi felt like years had pa.s.sed. A normal person wouldve lost consciousness by now, but he didnt have the nine infants Grand Sages unique racial talents. Lin Yis heaven-defying willpower was the only thing that helped him survive.

However, Lin Yi didnt have the chance to feel lucky or feel the strength of the mid-stage xuansheng. He had encountered a very troublesome problem. The cancer that was originally plaguing the sky-devouring crocodiles soul wasnt completely digested with the crocodiles soul. Instead, it was transferred to Lin Yis head. It was as stubborn as gangrene.

This tumor was caused by the giant sky-devouring crocodile when it forcefully swallowed the eggs of the Tai Snake Clan. Even an old monster like it was helpless and could only rely on the spiritual fruits to resolve it bit by bit. Now that it was dead, the trouble was left to Lin Yi.
