Chapter 628A - Have Him Hurry Up

Qin Yu furrowed his eyebrows and instantly decided to give up on chasing Mei Ruyu. He flicked his sleeves, retrieving Ji Yun’s corpse, and ran far away.

Qin Yu’s field of vision flashed black and his aura began to fluctuate, becoming unsteady. Just as he reached his limits, he sat down cross-legged and vanished from sight.

Within the duplicate world of the Space-time Lock, Qin Yu shut his eyes tightly. Black energy tumbled around his body and a devil head appeared between his eyebrows.

“Give up. Stubborn human, it is impossible for you to resist the strength of a great devil. Allow your soul to fuse together with mine. You will not vanish. Instead, you will obtain the formidable devil strength that I possess!

“If you and I merge together we will become one of the most formidable beings beneath the heavens. You can accomplish all of your wishes, even taking back that pitiful woman from the Immortal Sect. I can help you suppress the strength of the Sublime Lost Emotion Code! As long as you agree, you can be with her forever.

“Do you hear me? Give up your resistance and don’t fight back, otherwise you will lose your final chance!”

With enticement, with threat, the devil mark’s roars reverberated through his soul space.

Qin Yu revealed a pained expression. He could clearly see black lines drilled out from the devil head between his eyebrows, constantly spreading outwards.

When these black lines covered Qin Yu’s entire body and connected with each other, the devil mark would complete its replacement of consciousness. It would be able to forcefully suppress Qin Yu’s consciousness and obtain complete control of his soul.

This was a method it had prepared after staying quiet for several months and slowly gathering its power. However, its hasty eruption today had caused a flaw in its plan. Otherwise, the devil mark would never have wasted any words on trying to affect Qin Yu on a psychological level and diminish the resistance of his will.

But as it saw that Qin Yu was completely unaffected, the devil mark howled in anger and finally tore off its mask of mercy.

“Low, base, and pathetic insect. This devil strength will completely corrode your soul. At that time you will be a devil slave forever, living in pain for all of eternity!

“I will ruthlessly torture you. I will use every method at my disposal to make you taste every pain in this world. You will howl in despair and sorrow, your soul shivering as it shrinks away!

“I am eagerly anticipating the scene of you kneeling towards me, crying and wailing. Believe me, that day will soon arrive!”

In the duplicate world, Qin Yu suddenly opened his eyes. He slowly said, “You are afraid.”

The devil mark’s voice came to a sudden stop. Then, it raucously laughed, “Little insect, what did you say? Are you trying to make me laugh?”

“You are afraid.”

Qin Yu repeated himself.

“Shut up! I am the great devil, the ruler of darkness. My inborn ability is to deceive souls. From the day I fused into your body, your soul was doomed to belong to me!”

“You are afraid.” Qin Yu said a third time.

Qin Yu’s lips lifted up in a smile. There was even a faintly happy expression on his face.

He shook his head and closed his eyes as if he didn’t want to argue about this matter anymore.

This sort of natural attitude as if Qin Yu had grasped the truth of the situation caused the devil mark to fly into a rage. It crazily roared out loud. But what a pity, it couldn’t elicit another response from Qin Yu. After a long time it fell silent. However, the black lines drilling out from the devil head between Qin Yu’s eyebrows grew faster and faster.

It decided to respond with practical action!

But in the end, the devil mark fell into a stalemate and exhausted its strength after a day and night.

The black lines covering Qin Yu’s body drew back like a falling tide. They retracted into the devil head where they hid from sight.

Qin Yu’s robes were drenched in sweat. He opened his eyes, his pupils dark and filled with a deep sense of weariness. His tense heart relaxed. At this time, he didn’t even want to move a finger. He carefully probed his body. After making sure that the devil mark had fallen into a deep slumber he fell onto his back and went into a deep sleep.

This devil mark’s backlash this time had been the strongest one yet. But, this wasn’t its limit…a greater challenge was waiting for Qin Yu.

Yet as Qin Yu was deeply sleeping, certain marvelous changes were occurring within him. His aura didn’t change, but if one carefully sensed him they would discover that he was different.

He had killed three people to spur the transformation of his will. After that, he experienced a day any night of struggle with the devil mark’s backlash. This allowed him to smoothly complete the final step. If the devil mark knew that it had helped Qin Yu fulfill this ‘turning point’, it would likely commit suicide in regret.

The sins of heaven could be forgiven but the sins self-inflicted could not be survived…perhaps as early as today, the devil mark had determined its final fate.
