After the shallow Parasite was successful, the Worms of Spirit did not stop. Taking advantage of the main body's continued blessing, they continued to deepen the Parasitism.
They invaded the Huo Nu's souls and brazenly activated their "Soul Devour" talent.
Amon didn't need to worry too much; the main body's mass accounted for an absolute proportion of the entire Amon family. Hundreds or even thousands of Dou Ancestors were but a drop in the ocean compared to it.
The Worms of Spirit devoured the Huo Nu's souls, greatly enhancing their own spirit bodies.
For the vast majority of people, their body and soul realms are matched; the strength of the soul is directly proportional to the strength of the body.
After devouring their souls, the Worms of Spirit' souls also matched the strength of the bodies they Parasite.
They performed the Combined Dragon Secret Technique, merging with these corpses.
Clusters of liquid floated in the sky, predominantly grey-black with starlight, and subtle differences existed between the various liquids.
Suddenly, hands emerged from the liquid, followed by heads and bodies. The liquid gradually diminished, all merging into young men who crawled out, wearing pointed soft hats and classical black robes.
These Amons, like short, disjointed rays, flew towards their original main body.
As they approached the main body, they gradually became ethereal and transparent, like ghosts.
Amon retracted the Golden Emperor Sky Burning Flame, gently adjusted the monocle on his right eye, and continued deeper into the Demon Flame Space, leaving behind only an empty, silent square.
After crossing the square and opening the door on the other side, there was another long passage. However, this passage was not straight but like a three-dimensional labyrinth, winding and turning with many Fork in the road.
Amon directly burned through the space with the Golden Emperor Sky Burning Flame, forming a straight passage.
...
In the core area of the Demon Flame Space, the handsome man in white showed a hint of solemnity and apprehension.
The Golden Emperor Sky Burning Flame's characteristic of burning everything had to be given sufficient importance even by him. Moreover, the intruder's direct burning of space would trigger the countermeasure of the formation left by the Nether Lotus Saint.
The fact that the opponent could resist this countermeasure and forcefully break through in a short time indicated that his strength was very strong!
Although the formation would not react too intensely to anyone other than the Nether Lotus Demon Flame, it was by no means an easy feat!
The Nether Lotus Demon Flame's eyes flickered, and he decided to treat the situation cautiously, gathering all the high-level Dou Saint-level puppets to confront this intruder with the strongest lineup.
However, he did not summon Xiao Chen. Although Xiao Chen was his strongest Huo Nu, he had not been completely refined, and his spirit had always been resisting.
When controlling other Huo Nu with Heart Separation Control, the control over Xiao Chen would significantly decrease, potentially leading to an accident.
So he sent Xiao Chen ahead to carry out a probe.
After Amon forcefully broke through the labyrinthine fire passage by means of violent dismantling, he once again arrived at a square and encountered numerous Huo Nu.
This batch of Huo Nu was fewer in number but stronger in power, mostly Dou Venerates.
Amon repeated his old trick, and then... the Amon family welcomed new members!
Tsk, why does it feel like playing a game and clearing dungeons, passing one level after another, each level gradually getting stronger, and finally facing the final boss, the Nether Lotus Demon Flame? Amon mused inwardly.
But I'm not using a hero template; I'm using a more late-game boss template!
Although the process was somewhat tedious, he showed no impatience whatsoever, maintaining a calm demeanor. He was a frugal person; since he had come, these Huo Nu could not be wasted!
Amon entered a huge palace. The palace was empty, with only a straight figure standing in the very center.
No milky white flames coiled around him, and his eyes were tightly shut. A powerful aura emanated from him, and a dense pressure filled the entire hall.
Five Star Dou Saint!
He wore ordinary clothes, his face stiff and expressionless. When he slowly opened his eyes, there was a bit more agility than the previous Huo Nu, but his gaze remained icy, like ten thousand years of profound ice.
Upon seeing Amon, he slowly turned his head. Perhaps because he hadn't moved for too long, his turning motion was a bit stiff, like a rusted machine.
The pressure emanating from him grew increasingly intense. He extended his right hand and gently gripped the air, and a several-zhang-large, extraordinarily exaggerated blood-colored giant axe appeared in his hand.
Blood Axe Xiao Chen, Xiao Xuan's cousin, a truly surviving member of the Xiao Clan!
Amon adjusted his monocle and chuckled softly:
"Although your relationship with Xiao Yan is not very close, you are ultimately a member of the Xiao Clan, connected by the same bloodline, and quite powerful... you are a significant anchor point for the 'Flame Emperor's' destiny in this World.
"So, I will unceremoniously claim your destiny. Hmm... placing it on Xiao Yuanshan would be just right."
Perhaps the words "Xiao Clan" stimulated Xiao Chen's spirit. A glimmer of clarity flashed in his eyes, and he repeated the name Amon had just mentioned, syllable by syllable, in a hoarse and low voice.
"Xiao... Yan... who... is... that?"
This trace of clarity quickly faded, but he sensed a hint of malice towards the Xiao Clan in Amon's words. He instinctively wanted to eliminate this young man before him.
The Nether Lotus Demon Flame's command, coupled with Xiao Chen's somewhat active cooperation, made his aura become exceptionally violent.
"Heh..." A hoarse, low growl squeezed out of his throat.
A fiery intensity flashed in his eyes, and from between his eyebrows, a strong light erupted, outlining an profound rune: the Xiao Clan's clan emblem!
As the clan emblem appeared, his aura surged.
Amon's face still held a faint smile, as if he didn't put the renowned "Blood Axe" Xiao Chen, famous a thousand years ago, in his eyes at all.
Xiao Chen moved. He raised his giant axe and swung it at Amon in the most brutal manner.
Amon raised his right hand and, with a very relaxed posture, blocked the terrifying giant axe with the back of his hand.
Purple-gold scales appeared on his hands, and his fingertips underwent subtle changes, his fingernails transforming into sharp, hard claws.
Xiao Chen swung the giant axe frantically, letting out wild, hoarse roars as he swung.
Amon, however, appeared very composed, systematically blocking the giant axe that was hacking at him again and again with his right hand.
He even remained standing in place, not moving a single step!
Even though his mind was not very clear, being treated with such disdain still ignited endless rage in Xiao Chen. He retreated a few steps, then gripped the axe handle tightly with both hands, raising it above his head.
His aura gradually disappeared, returning to oblivion, and streaks of lightning coiled around the several-zhang giant axe. Bursts of thunder echoed throughout the hall.
Immediately after, his disappeared aura surged violently, reaching the level of a Five Star Dou Saint.
...
The Nether Lotus Demon Flame, who had been closely observing this place, showed a hint of surprise.
"This is... Sky Cleaving Slash? I didn't expect Xiao Chen to actively cooperate with me and launch such an attack on the intruder."
The Nether Lotus Demon Flame also had a deep impression of "Blood Axe" Xiao Chen. A thousand years ago, his own strength was not as strong as it is now, and his mastery of the various formations in the Demon Flame Space was not as proficient as it is now.
At that time, dealing with Xiao Chen took him a lot of effort. If he hadn't relied on being more familiar with this space and first consumed a lot of the opponent's Dou Qi, he might have been the one to fail!
Seeing Xiao Chen actively use his strongest Dou Technique, the Nether Lotus Demon Flame grew more curious about the intruder's identity in his heart.
