"That bastard, always bossing me around."
Lin Xiao's aura suddenly became chaotic. He lowered the hand that had been covering his eyes and grinned, "Such good food, I could never give it up."
The whites of his left eye had turned gray, and his pupil had become crimson.
His aura grew increasingly chaotic, and heavy.
"Give me the thing, and I'll swallow it. Everything will be over." "Lin Xiao" extended his hand, asking Shan to hand over the bell.
"No."
Shan refused him, "Even if I give it to you now, your Devouring Law won't be able to digest the Demon Lord's physical body. You are only a part of the Gluttony's Devouring Law. Your body is still Lin Xiao's, unable to completely devour the body that has achieved sainthood through flesh."
"What nonsense!" "Lin Xiao" waved his hand impatiently, and a massive suction force emanated from his palm, intending to snatch the Chaos Bell.
Unfortunately, the Lin Dang in Shan's hand remained unmoved.
"It's useless."
Shan shook his head, "No matter how well you grasp the Devouring Law now, your strength is only at the very beginning of the Land Immortal realm. Whether it's me or the Demon Lord's physical body, you are powerless against them."
"Lin Xiao" was clearly displeased, but he quickly recovered, "It's fine. I'll just devour and refine a bit more, and soon my strength will be enough."
As he spoke, "Lin Xiao" looked at Qi Tian, who was his best target.
"Suppress him."
Shan spoke, shaking the bell in his hand. "Lin Xiao's" body then knelt on the ground.
"You!"
"Let Lin Xiao out."
Shan spoke again, shaking the bell once more. A pure and powerful soul force instantly surged into Lin Xiao's sea of consciousness.
Within Lin Xiao's sea of consciousness were two souls.
One was a one-to-one scaled-down Lin Xiao, who sat cross-legged at the center of the sea of consciousness, his eyes closed as if cultivating.
The other was a Lin Xiao entirely shrouded in darkness, but on this Lin Xiao's body were ropes constructed from countless laws, trapping him.
"You dare to come in again!"
The dark Lin Xiao let out a roar at Shan!
However, Shan was not affected by this Lin Xiao at this moment. With a wave of his hand, this dark Lin Xiao was bound in place.
"I'm here to end all this." Shan walked up to the other meditating Lin Xiao. After calling out a few times, that Lin Xiao finally opened his eyes.
"Shan, where is this..." Lin Xiao was startled and looked around.
"This is your sea of consciousness. There's not much time. I need to tell you something." Shan grabbed Lin Xiao, helping him to stand up. "For the Sun Essence Gold to recognize you, you must become its master and gain complete control."
Shan pointed at the Devouring Law he had trapped.
"This fellow is a tough nut to crack," Lin Xiao nodded. He needed to try.
"Not anymore," Shan said, pressing his hand down. The aura of the dark Lin Xiao was reduced by ninety percent!
"Now, seize this time, and we can proceed to the next step."
With that, Shan left Lin Xiao's sea of consciousness.
There was still a next step?
Lin Xiao looked at his dark self. He walked over and reached out, unleashing the power of the Devouring Law.
Only the Devouring Law could devour the Devouring Law.
"Lin Xiao! This is unfair!"
"Heaven's will is unjust, you know that better than I do," the Lin Xiao who had unleashed the Devouring Law said.
