The demon laughed loudly in the sea of consciousness. His appearance caused the Demon Devouring Spirit Bugs to be wary of him. They no longer dared to recklessly devour the sea of consciousness, instead, they purposely distanced themselves from the demon.
"Little guy, you've survived all the storms and waves, but now you're being blocked by this little bastard. That's really a bit embarrassing. That Rakshasa girl is about to give birth."
"Rakshasa!"
Clang!
Qin Shi's heart violently trembled. After going through so many life and death situations, he had almost forgotten about this matter. Now that the demon mentioned it, he finally remembered that there was still something he had to do.
"Yes, I have to return to Chi Yan."
Qin Shi clenched his fists. In a short moment, his aura changed greatly. It was completely different from the previous dispirited aura. He gave off the feeling that he was a king.
Feeling the piercingly cold wind, the evil spirit laughed heartily. "That's more like it. That's more like the fearless little guy I know."
"Little fellow, from now on, I will lend all of my power to you. In the future, I will also live in your sea of consciousness. Right now, our bloodlines are already connected. Even if I fall into a deep sleep, you will be able to use my power. However … you must remember, unless you have no other choice, don't easily reveal yourself. In the human world, fiendish demons are a taboo." The demon's rough voice rang out and the illusory figures wrapped around Qin Shi's body.
"Go, you still have a long way to go. In the next period of time, relax and empty yourself. Go see your wife and children and enjoy life. You won't have many days like this."
Qin Shi hovered in the Ancient Mysterious Heaven Formation, feeling the murderous aura rushing towards him like a tsunami. His originally miserable body began to regain its luster.
"Yes …!"
Feeling this power, Qin Shi clenched his fists and let out a long sigh.
He knew that the Nefarious Demon was right. Perhaps it wouldn't be long before he would no longer be able to live in peace. After all, the enemies he was going to face this time were the Eight Regions that ruled over the Mortal World, the pinnacle of the Mortal World.
Moreover, the Pyrolyte Group had already begun to operate. He felt that this was just the beginning, and there were still huge conspiracies and troubles waiting for him in the future.
At that time, he wouldn't have any time to rest.
But it was also because of this that he couldn't wait to return to Chi Yan and enjoy the warmth and tenderness that belonged only to him.
"Luo Sha, wait for me. I will not break my promise with you. I will return now." The turbid air that had been suppressed in his chest for a long time finally turned into smoke and was exhaled from Qin Shi's mouth and nose.
Bang!
His black eyes, which had been closed all this time, opened. What moved were the five pairs of blood-red eyes between his eyebrows. His blood-red eyes contained extreme killing intent.
Then, the seven eyes pierced deeply into the Demon Devouring Spirit Bug's carapace like carving knives. A layer of baleful aura that resembled a black dragon spiraled into the air.
"Little bastard, after chasing me for so long, it should be my turn now, right?"
Suddenly, he shot out with a speed that could only be described as lightning. The Demon Devouring Spirit Bug was instantly shocked. Its sixteen legs quickly retreated, and its two huge compound eyes flashed with shock.
Originally, when the demon disappeared, the Demon Devouring Spirit Bug was secretly rejoicing, but when it saw Qin Shi again, it couldn't help but feel fear.
"Ao!"
The Demon Devouring Spirit Bug howled in pain. Thirty-two tentacles intertwined and shot out a seal.
"Want to kill me?
That attack might have worked just now, but it's not enough now! "
Qin Shi's voice was stern. As the seal approached him, his body inexplicably faded, turning into a golden cloud that disappeared into thin air. When he reappeared, he was behind the Demon Devouring Spirit Bug. He struck the Demon Devouring Spirit Bug's carapace with one palm, "Three Souls Stabilizing the Universe!"
Boom!
The wind from the palm suddenly turned into three flames that shot out from the crack like a sky-piercing pillar, knocking the Demon Devouring Spirit Bug away.
Rumble!
The Devil-Devouring Spirit Bug was sent flying back more than a hundred meters, then flipped to its feet and looked fearfully at Qin Shi. No matter how hard it tried, it couldn't figure out how Qin Shi had suddenly become so powerful.
"Ao!"
Compelled by their instincts, the Demon Devouring Spirit Bugs armed themselves and looked around suspiciously, fearing that Qin Shi might jump out from some corner. The pitch-black runes that looked like ancient Sanskrit floated in the air, supported by a layer of faint gray smoke.
"Little bastard, you've been playing around in my territory for so long. Now it's time to get out, isn't it?"
However, no matter how vigilant the Demon Devouring Spirit Bug was, it was still no match for Qin Shi in this sea of consciousness. Every inch of this sea of consciousness was under Qin Shi's control. Five thousand golden śarīras, like a rainstorm, shot down under Qin Shi's five fingers, piercing through the spirit bug.
"It's over."
Qin Shi shook his head indifferently. Wrapped in a black robe, he stepped on the void and looked at the Demon Devouring Spirit Bug. He said indifferently, "My path is the path of a king. You have no right to stop me!"
After being chased for so long, Qin Shi finally put an end to this farce. He flipped his hand and looked at the lingering murderous aura in his hand. The corner of his mouth curled up slightly.
"Demon, thank you."
"This is the last time. I won't be in such a sorry state again. I won't embarrass you again."
Qin Shi took a deep breath. At this moment, every inch of his body was connected with the murderous aura, so he was very strong.
He lifted the corpse of the Demon Devouring Spirit Bug with one hand and used the murderous aura to eat it up.
"Have a good rest. When you wake up, we'll explore the world together!"
Qin Shi stared at the baleful aura that had become slightly full after devouring the Demon Devouring Spirit Insects. He smiled in satisfaction. The demon was really someone who had changed his life. It was just that he had regretted it in the past, but it was no longer the case now.
The demon gradually recovered after devouring the demonic nature of the spirit bug. Qin Shi looked inside his body and the sea of consciousness that he could no longer bear to look at directly. He couldn't help but smile bitterly.
"This injury is really embarrassing. I don't think I can recover without three to five months."
He originally thought that the time in the Living Void Cave would be the most miserable time of his life, but now it seemed that he was too naive. At least he could still control his body at that time, but what about now?
He was forced to live on with only his sea of consciousness left. His sea of consciousness was on the verge of collapse, and even the Ancient Mysterious Heaven Formation was dim.
This injury was unprecedentedly serious.
Looking at his body, his bones were nearly fractured. There were also cracks on his crystal core. This injury was only possible because Qin Shi had forced it with his own body. He had swapped it with many ancient desolate beasts. If it were a normal person, it would be impossible for him to survive. Even if he had a few lives, he would not die. Even if he was lucky enough to survive, he would probably be a cripple for the rest of his life, unable to cultivate again.
But Qin Shi was not an ordinary person. This injury was the most serious. But with the Sweet Torrential Rain Method and the two Dharmakayas in the Chaotic Realm, it was not difficult to recover. It was just a matter of time.
"Let's recuperate first. At the very least, I need to regain control of my body. That way, as long as I can return to Chi Yan, at least I won't be chased."
"Plus, if there is a real danger, as long as I can recover some Spiritual and Mental Energy, I can barely control the Nine Stars and protect myself."
Qin Shi thought to himself. Don't forget that he still had a giant puppet with him that was comparable to a Wild Beast. That was a Heaven Fate Stage fellow. As long as he didn't have to face the Eight Regions, it would be more than enough to deal with.
Qin Shi didn't waste any more time. He calmed down and sat down cross-legged.
He sat in the center of the Ancient Mysterious Heaven Formation. What he needed to recover first wasn't his sea of consciousness, body, blood, or dantian, but the formation.
The Ancient Mysterious Heaven Formation was like an engine for his sea of consciousness, a water pump. As long as the formation was restored, it would be much easier to recover his sea of consciousness.
With the help of the evil aura, his recovery speed was very fast. He used the evil aura to circulate the Sweet Torrential Rain Method, the first two levels of the Xuantian Sacred Scripture, and the fourth level of the Fallen Star Hegemon Body Incantation.
Especially the first two levels of the Xuantian Sacred Scripture, which had crushed his soul several times. Although it was painful to recover, the effect was miraculous. In just half a day, the Yuan Spirit in the Ancient Mysterious Heaven Formation had recovered. Golden ancient runes circled around it, looking very mysterious.
Ancient runes swayed in the wind.
The restoration of the Ancient Mysterious Heaven Formation caused Qin Shi's gloomy lips to curl into a faint smile. "It's finally recovered?"
This step was the most difficult one. After all, the strength of the Ancient Mysterious Heaven Formation was something that Qin Shi was still trying to figure out. Naturally, it wouldn't be easy to recover.
However, now that the Ancient Profound Heaven Formation had been restored, the following matters would be much easier to handle. With the Ancient Profound Heaven Formation in his sea of consciousness, the darkness immediately dissipated. It was like the rising sun on a pitch-black night.
Qin Shi sat down on the formation plate of the ancient formation. His sea of consciousness was restored, and his soul was finally starting to recover. This allowed him to focus on his physical body. Although it wasn't possible to completely recover his sea of consciousness in such a short period of time, he still needed a long time to recuperate from his injuries. But he wasn't in a rush. Right now, what he needed to do was regain control of his body.
As for why Qin Shi chose to repair the Ancient Mysterious Heaven Formation first, or rather, because he had no choice but to repair it, it was mainly because the human body was just a shell. If he wanted to truly use it, he still needed the soul.
If the soul wasn't repaired, even if the body was perfected, it would be futile in the end.
However, just as he turned the spearhead to his body, the corner of his mouth couldn't help but twitch a few times. He stared at the broken ribs, the dislocated organs, the shattered forearm, and the shoulder blade, and shook his head. "This is really a tragic sight."
This time, his physical injuries were extremely serious. Yuanhao and Chu Deyu's attacks were extremely ferocious. Even the Desolate Beasts that stood at the peak of the Ancient Fierce Beast List would find it difficult to endure, let alone Qin Shi.
In addition, he had been corroded by the curse of the Demon Devouring Spirit Insects. His organs were damaged to the point where they were filled with holes as if they had been soaked in acid.
He couldn't bear to look at his current physical body.
