Chapter 251
Compared to the seven Yin Devils before it, the Eagle of Disgust was much stronger and larger . With its wings spread wide, it was seven to eight meters wide .
But the bigger it was, the smellier it was too .
Lu Sheng could barely take its foul odor . Resolutely, he kept it and quickly used his blood web to fan the air in the cave . Only after a while did he feel better .
'If even I can't take this foul stench, it must be even worse for others . If used well, this thing can be a real killer . ' Lu Sheng breathed out at length . After being overwhelmed by foul odor twice in one day, even he could not take it any further . He felt like puking out his dinner from yesterday .
From another point of view, if even he could not take it, others would probably be knocked out by the smell .
'There's one last Devil Will heart left . ' He looked at the other black heart floating beside him .
Unlike the other hearts, this one had many tiny pores packed densely on its surface . He examined it and noticed countless black maggots crawling about in and out of the pores .
'Oh, looks like it's already hatched . . . Maggots of Despair . . . ' Realization dawned on Lu Sheng . These maggots were too tiny and their aura too discrete . He had not noticed them before this .
'Maggots of Despair . Their ability is decomposition . By devouring corpses, they can speed up the body's recovery . ' Lu Sheng sensed their ability and his face immediately fell .
'What on earth do I want this bloody decomposition ability for!' With his palm, he shattered the Maggots of Despair's heart before him, turning them into countless strands of Prime Devil aura which returned to his body .
'But thankfully, I've at last gathered all nine Devil Wills . And now it's time to generate the ultimate Devil Heart . In Phantom Listening Skill's lineage, once the foundations have been laid with Devil Heart Dao, one only needs to cultivate Prime Devil Secret Art's Phantom Listening Skill to produce the Phantom Listening Devil Body . '
The Phantom Listening Devil Body, as one of Prime Devil Sect's Ten Laws and Nine Wills, was ranked tenth among the nineteen Devil Bodies . Its most distinctive characteristic was that it had the most Devil aura in its flesh among all the Devil Bodies .
This was also what the lineage of the Phantom Listening Skill relied on to survive till today . Compared to other Devil Bodies, its storage volume and speed of replenishment of Prime Devil Qi was several times faster .
Moreover, such a Devil Body had many varied abilities and was the fastest to adapt to the changes in combat . That was why it was passed down till now .
Lu Sheng mused to himself . He now had nine Devil Will hearts hatched—one more than the founding ancestor of Devil Heart Dao himself, according to the records . Perhaps even the founding ancestor of the Phantom Listening Skill would not be able to imagine what sort of heights Lu Sheng's eventual Devil Heart could attain .
"Let's begin . . . " He sucked in a deep breath of air . This was his habitual action each time before he began something important . It relieved him of his stress and helped him compose himself .
"Hoo . . . hoo . . . hoo . . . "
One by one, streaks of black gas shot out from his body, turning into Yin Devils as they landed on the ground .
Snake of Jealousy, Lion of Rage, Shadow of Insanity, Deer of Anxiety, Hound of Panic, Ram of Solitude, Ox of Pain, Eagle of Disgust, and Maggots of Despair .
Nine different Yin Devils flew around him . Each Yin Devil released a pale-blue glow .
Lu Sheng followed the Devil Heart Dao manual and meditated on the secret art diagram on it . Controlling all the Yin Devils, he made them orbit around himself according to a series of diverse pathways .
As the speed of orbiting increased, Lu Sheng's own Prime Devil Qi was drawn out of his body as well, spreading towards the Nine Yin Devils .
Time trickled by . . .
After an unknown length in time . . .
"BOOM!"
Without warning, all the Devil Will hearts were contained by the black Prime Devil Qi, expanding and contracting as they were pulled into Lu Sheng's body .
"Ba-thump!!"
All the Devil Qi gathered together and congealed into a massive, immaterial heart . This heart completely contained Lu Sheng, who was near six meters tall, as it beat slowly .
"It's done!"
Lu Sheng surveyed his surroundings . This heart which contained himself was immaterial . It was like some sort of shadow-like object .
Contained within the heart, Lu Sheng could feel the Prime Devil Qi in him gushing and churning in a frenzy as if it were endless . Much of the water of the River of Poisoned Fog which he had drunk had remained in the stomach earlier . But now, it was being converted into new Prime Devil Qi at a mad speed .
The original Prime Devil Qi in him was being compressed, turning more viscous within him .
'The speed of conversion is now five to six times faster than before . Prime Devil Qi's total volume remains unchanged . But the activity of the Prime Devil Qi per unit has jumped drastically . The higher the activity, the lower the rate of expenditure when it is used to activate secret arts . Looks like this is the root reason why the Phantom Listening Devil Body has the most Devil aura among them all,' Lu Sheng analyzed .
This immaterial giant heart was the eventual Devil Heart that Devil Heart Dao had produced in him .
According to the records, Devil Heart Dao produced many times more Prime Devil Qi than other similar secret arts . When the eventual Devil Heart was congealed, one's recovery speed would be raised to two to five times that of before .
"As for mine . . . " With a mental command, the Lion of Rage emerged and stood before him .
"BAM!"
With one palm strike, he smashed the Lion of Rage into pulp .
Its toxic fire which carried lethal poison and hard skin were completely useless .
But in that instant when Lu Sheng smashed the Lion of Rage into pulp, the black lion roared and immediately emerged again from the black gas .
"This . . . this is regeneration!?" Lu Sheng was surprised . He had not read about this ability in the records of other cultivators of Devil Heart Dao .
He had destroyed the Lion of Rage to deplete his own Prime Devil Qi because he had intended to test how fast it would be replenished .
But the result was unexpected .
"Could this be the advantage I have from creating my eventual Devil Heart out of nine Devil Will hearts? Let me try again . "
"BAM!"
He destroyed the Lion of Rage again .
"It feels harder to the touch this time . Do they get stronger each time they die?" Lu Sheng was surprised .
