If he had any other choice, Pill Emperor would have slapped Amon to death.
Amon's face revealed a warm smile: "Of course I won't forget… Senior, your help to me will forever be etched in my heart."
He then focused his attention on the vast, ocean-like soul origin, and Amon's heart couldn't help but stir slightly.
He took a deep breath, calming himself down.
The Tuoshe Ancient Emperor's Cave had cut off his connection with the Amon outside, so he went out first, informing his main body in Soul Hall Tian Hall of the situation here through the Flame of Destiny's connection, and then returned to the Different Fire Square.
A few minutes later, the main body committed suicide.
Using a pure Worm of Spirit carried by Dou Venerate Amon as a vessel, the main body Amon was resurrected again.
This pure Worm of Spirit was not strong, so the main body's mass greatly decreased, and Amon's overall mass significantly dropped.
Many Amons, whose mass exceeded one-tenth of the main body's, experienced a drop in their cultivation.
There were also many Amons who directly exploded, turning into piles of flesh, their souls dissipating along with them.
This was because the total mass limit exceeded one hundred times that of the main body, and the energy in the bodies of the excess Amons went out of control!
…
"What happened? What on earth happened?" Xiao Meng sat up from her bed, a hint of panic flashing in her eyes.
She could feel a significant decrease in her own limit, as if layers of shackles had been placed upon her again… This meant that something unexpected had happened to the main body.
She quickly went to the pavilion next to her residence, impolitely pushed open the door to the other party's study, and walked in.
"That's very rude, you know." Zhou Mingrui was savoring a glass of fine wine, sitting on a chair covered with soft beast hide, with his legs propped up, looking at the sky outside through the window.
"You felt it too, right? Our limits have drastically decreased, something's wrong with the main body." Xiao Meng said with a solemn expression.
"Hmm, no need to rush, because rushing is useless…" Zhou Mingrui put down his wine glass, his tone slightly heavy.
Xiao Meng said anxiously, "But Young Master Xiao Yan is coming soon, if the main body weakens, the power I can call upon will definitely be reduced accordingly, and I won't be able to help Young Master Xiao Yan as well."
The expression on Zhou Mingrui's face froze. At this important moment, the main body had shared his joy with all the avatars, letting all Amons know what stage the plan had reached, but he had only forgotten Xiao Meng.
So he still wanted to pretend that something big had happened to tease Xiao Meng.
Amon tricking Amon, it was a regular operation.
But he didn't expect that Xiao Meng's biggest concern was whether she could help Xiao Yan!
Was I the clown all along? Zhou Mingrui rubbed his forehead helplessly, took a deep breath, and calmed his complicated feelings.
He lost the urge to tease Xiao Meng and replied, "This is part of the plan, just wait patiently."
…
Amon's main body activated the "Soul Devour" talent towards the giant soul light cluster. The soul origin almost seamlessly merged into his soul, and he could feel his spirit body rapidly growing stronger.
This feeling was the same as when absorbing soul origin in the Tian Hall, the difference being that this time, his soul did not stop growing at the late Heavenly Realm, but rapidly broke through to the Great Perfection of the Heavenly Realm.
A joy of life essence elevation filled his heart.
Even at this level, the soul origin left by Zhu Kun had not been consumed much; the remaining soul was still massive.
Even with Amon's "Soul Devour" talent for converting soul origin, it was impossible to digest an Emperor Realm soul in an instant.
However, he did not take too much time; after more than ten minutes, he had absorbed all the soul origin completely.
His soul also, as expected, rose to the Emperor Realm.
Amon cupped his hands towards Pill Emperor: "Thank you for your help, Senior. With this improvement, I am confident I can help Senior leave within fifty years!"
Hearing Amon state the time precisely, a smile also appeared on Pill Emperor's face, and the displeasure in his heart lessened a bit.
Fifty years, it's not long.
…
When Amon's soul realm elevated to the Emperor Realm, all his avatars curved their lips into smiles in unison.
Their plan had succeeded!
Even an ant can swallow a dragon!
Xiao Meng also felt her whole body lighten, as if the shackles limiting her cultivation had disappeared.
She knew the restrictions were still there, but the clone's limit had risen to a level she could not perceive or reach.
If her current cultivation was a cup of water, then this restriction was a lake.
"Ah, hehe…" She looked at Zhou Mingrui with a smile, "Um, Uncle Zhou, can you please tell the main body to raise my cultivation limit?"
Xiao Meng's cultivation limit had an artificial limit set by Amon; once reached, the Worms of Spirit would refuse to merge into her body.
Of course, she could also cultivate on her own to break through this limit. But Xiao Meng's level was raised by continuously Convergence Worms of Spirit, her potential was already exhausted, and normal cultivation methods would result in almost no improvement.
Zhou Mingrui clicked his tongue and said, "You really have no shame at all."
"Do we Amons care about losing face? Pretension is something only the The Fool needs to consider!" Xiao Meng said proudly, not feeling ashamed.
Zhou Mingrui revealed a playful smile, drawing out his words as he replied:
"Of course… not."
Xiao Meng pouted, but wasn't too disappointed. He knew Amon wouldn't let his strength become too powerful for the sake of the plan; he was just asking with a try-it-and-see attitude.
Anyway, there was no harm in asking.
…
Amon arrived in front of the stone door. This time, he did not use the ancient jade, but very easily enlarged the loophole, weakened the Seal, created a passage that one person could pass through, and walked out.
Coming to the space outside the cave, Amon smiled as he looked at the huge dragon corpse prostrate on the square.
At this moment, he had removed his disguise, no longer having Xiao Meng's appearance, but transforming into a young man with black eyes, black hair, a broad forehead, thin lips, and a lean face.
He wore a pointed, wide-brimmed soft hat, a black classical long robe, and black leather boots. His entire being exuded a faint scholarly aura, mixed with a hint of wizard-like mystery.
Amon slowly walked to the giant dragon's corpse. Not long after Zhu Kun's soul departed, the dragon corpse still possessed extremely high vitality.
He lightly leaped, landing on the giant dragon's head.
Immediately after, he formed complex hand Seals with both hands.
Combined Dragon Secret Technique!
Amon used the Combined Dragon Secret Technique on Zhu Kun's corpse!
With his current Emperor Realm soul, he could fully withstand the pressure of merging with the corpse of a Nine-Star Dou Saint late-stage beast!
Starlight flowed, and Amon's body slowly melted. The enormous Taixu Ancient Dragon corpse, tens of thousands of feet long, also slowly melted.
However, because the corpse was simply too massive, only a portion of its surface melted, and it did not completely turn into a puddle of liquid.
The starlight-infused liquid that Amon had transformed into, and the purplish-gold liquid formed by the melting surface of the Taixu Ancient Dragon, merged with each other, constantly flowing and spreading throughout the entire dragon corpse.
The avatars outside once again felt their limits increase.
Xiao Meng's expression was somewhat dazed: "What on earth did the main body do? He didn't swallow a Nine-Star Dou Saint or the Bodhi Ancient Tree, did he? Wait…"
She looked at Zhou Mingrui with some surprise, remembering the images she had recorded about Zi Yan.
Undoubtedly, the Amons had some ideas about the Taixu Ancient Dragon Emperor Zhu Kun. Combining this with the main body's abnormally rapid increase in strength, a hint of surprise couldn't help but appear on her face.
She took out a monocle, clipped it into her right eye socket, and said with a heavy tone, "The main body, he couldn't have really swallowed Zhu Kun, could he?"
Zhou Mingrui revealed a warm smile, and said softly: "Haven't you already guessed it… It's crazy, the harvest is huge, and it's very interesting, isn't it?"
"Impressive, impressive… As expected, the main body is the craziest one." Zhou Mingrui clapped his hands, praising.
He stood up from his chair, walked to the window, and gazed at the sky, his eyes deep:
"Tsk tsk, now, the entire Dou Qi Continent no longer poses any obstacle to us, and no one is a match for Amon. Gu Yuan is not, nor is Soul Emperor…"
…
The secret technique neared its end, and Amon's fusion with the dragon corpse was about to conclude.
The liquid continuously flowing over the dragon corpse slowly solidified. A white circle appeared on the giant dragon's right eye socket, twelve rings appeared on its body, and its original purplish-gold scales were also stained with a layer of starlight.
Because the Taixu Ancient Dragon Emperor's dragon corpse accounted for a larger proportion, after the fusion, Amon transformed into a Taixu Ancient Dragon, and many characteristics belonging to the Worm of Spirit were weakened.
The giant dragon's eyes, several tens of feet long, slowly opened, and starlight flowed within them.
An incomparable terrifying aura emanated from it, causing the entire space to tremble under this pressure.
A flash of starlight shone, and when the light dispersed, the giant dragon was gone, and Amon returned to his human form.
He raised his right hand, put on a monocle made of crystal over his right eye, pinched the upper and lower edges of the lens, adjusted it to the most comfortable position, and after feeling his strength, he chuckled and spoke:
"Tsk… Nine-Star Dou Saint mid-stage… Not bad."
Whether it was "Soul Devour" or "Combined Dragon Secret Technique," there was a certain amount of loss, although very small, it wasn't non-existent.
Amon's soul was weaker than Zhu Kun's original soul, and his cultivation also dropped from Nine-Star Dou Saint late-stage to mid-stage.
"Hmm, Nine-Star mid-stage is enough. I'll go get the Nether Lotus Demon Flame and the Void Swallowing Flame. When the twenty-four Different Fire Fire Lotus falls, Gu Yuan and Soul Emperor will be nothing." He muttered softly.
Afterward, he prepared to leave this desolate space.
Just as Amon reached the edge of the space, a strong pulling force prevented him from leaving. This was Tuo She Ancient Emperor's restraint on Zhu Kun, which had now transferred to him; he had become the Grave Keepers!
"Heh…" Amon stroked his monocle, and starlight flowed over the lens. He picked up the Xiao Clan's ancient jade and exploited a bug.
Because the characteristics of his Worm of Spirit were greatly weakened, he had to rely on the ancient jade's slight function as a key to successfully exploit this bug.
The pulling force from the ancient stone door suddenly lightened, and Amon took the opportunity to escape the space.
He began to move upwards, and after some time, he arrived at the depth where the Flame Lizardmen lived.
Two milky-white Flame Lizardman leaders immediately surrounded this unfamiliar human.
"Human, how did you appear here?"
