Chapter 510: The Irresistible Magic Power
The scene instantly fell silent, and everyone stared at Meng Yi with expressions of shock and uncertainty.
"Get out!"
Meng Yi shouted in shock and anger. His face suddenly twitched, appearing extremely painful, and he struggled violently.
"Just an insignificant ant of the True Martial Realm, yet you dare to resist me? How delusional. Your body belongs to me now!"
A voice from the demon soul came from inside Meng Yi, and then his body stopped struggling.
Seeing this, everyone's heart sank.
It seemed that the demon soul had likely destroyed Meng Yi's divine soul and taken over his body.
Immediately afterward, Meng Yi suddenly raised his head, his eyes emitting a pitch-black glow as he coldly swept his gaze over the crowd.
"By devouring you, my strength should be able to recover to the Sect Martial Realm, right?"
The voice of the demon soul came from Meng Yi's mouth, his eyes greedily staring at the people.
"Hmph, don't be afraid, everyone. Even if he has taken over Meng Yi's body, he still only possesses the strength of the True Martial Realm. How could he possibly withstand so many of us at once? Let's strike together and kill him!"
A bold individual declared fearlessly.
As top True Martial Realm talents from the three major dynasties, there were few in the True Martial Realm who could subdue them, and even those invincible powerhouses did not dare to confront their group of over twenty talents alone.
Therefore, they were not too frightened by the demon soul.
"Right, let's strike together and kill him!"
The others also shouted.
"Fools!"
The demon soul revealed a disdainful sneer on his face, and then with a blur of movement, he appeared at an unimaginable horrific speed in front of a person from the Golden Knight Dynasty wearing armor. With a simple flick of a finger, he easily pierced through the martial artist's brow.
"Shoo!"
Afterward, the Meng Yi possessed by the demon soul, opened his mouth and sucked out a transparent orb of light from the person's brow, containing a vague human face, which was the person's divine soul.
"No!"
Seeing that it was about to be devoured by the demon soul, the person's divine soul screamed in terror and desperately tried to flee.
However, in front of the demon soul, it had no ability to resist at all. The fragile divine soul couldn't move and was directly swallowed by the demon soul.
"Boom!"
After consuming this divine soul, the aura of the demon soul instantly surged tremendously, reaching the level of an invincible powerhouse.
"This is impossible!"
Seeing this, everyone on the scene showed expressions of incredible terror.
Everyone could clearly sense that the strength of the demon soul that had taken over Meng Yi's body was only comparable to Meng Yi's, much lesser than that of an invincible powerhouse.
However, they hadn't expected that just by devouring one martial artist's divine soul, the demon soul's power could instantly surge to a level comparable to an invincible powerhouse. This was truly unbelievable and completely beyond everyone's comprehension.
Even some couldn't help but imagine in their hearts, if this demon soul devoured the divine souls of everyone present, what terrifying level his strength would reach.
"Boom! Boom! Boom!..."
After a moment of shock, everyone exchanged glances and immediately launched an attack on the Demon Soul.
They had to kill it before it became even stronger; otherwise, they would be in big trouble.
"How naive!"
The Demon Soul displayed a disdainful sneer on its face, its figure flashed and transformed into an almost invisible shadow, disappearing from everyone's sight. The next moment, it appeared behind a Martial Artist, its palm suddenly extending sharp black claws, directly piercing the Martial Artist's head and extracting a Divine Soul.
"No..."
Following that, the Divine Soul of the Martial Artist was also devoured by the Demon Soul amid a scream of agony.
"Boom!"
After consuming the second Divine Soul, the Demon Soul showed a satisfied smile on its face, and the aura around its body surged again, though the increase was not as substantial as the first. Still, it remained within True Martial Realm and did not advance to Sect Martial Realm.
However, the Demon Soul was not concerned about this, as it knew that to break into the Sect Martial Realm, a massive amount of energy was required, which certainly could not be satisfied by just one or two Divine Souls from individuals in the True Martial Realm.
"Swish!"
Following that, the Demon Soul's figure flickered and disappeared from everyone's sight once again.
"Run! We can't handle this Demon Soul!"
"That's right, start running!"
Upon witnessing this scene, everyone screamed in alarm and scrambled towards the dark path they came through.
Only now did they realize why the powerful beings from Ancient Times did not kill this Demon Soul but merely suppressed it; this Martial Soul was far more potent than they had anticipated and was something they, being in the True Martial Realm, could not contend with.
Leaving other aspects aside for the moment, just the Demon Soul's movement technique alone made it untouchable; they couldn't even see its movements. Their attacks couldn't touch the Demon Soul at all; they couldn't fight, only flee.
"Ah!"
Just at that moment, another True Martial Realm genius screamed in horror as their head was crushed by the Demon Soul, and their Divine Soul was extracted and swallowed.
"Boom!"
After consuming this Divine Soul, the aura of the Demon Soul increased significantly and also instantly healed the wounds inside Meng Yi's body.
"Run? Where can you run? Since I, the mighty one, have seen the light of day again, the other strong figures of my Demon Clan will also wake up one by one. Soon, this world will fall under the rule of my Demon Clan. Even if you flee to the ends of the earth, there is only death awaiting you!"
Watching the geniuses from various nations frantically rush towards the entrance of the dark path, the Demon Soul sneered unconcernedly and followed them with composed steps.
His strides seemed slow, but each step he took was like teleportation, covering dozens of meters in an instant, quickly catching up to a Martial Artist and extending his sharp-clawed palm, directly aiming for the back of the Martial Artist's head.
"Over my dead body!"
In the nick of time, that Martial Artist shouted angrily, a shield suddenly appeared behind him, protecting his head.
"A one-star Mid-grade Spiritual Artifact? Ridiculous!"
However, the Demon Soul let out a dismissive sneer, its sharp black claws directly penetrating the Martial Artist's shield and, without losing momentum, piercing into the Martial Artist's head. Then, it extracted a terrified Divine Soul and swallowed it.
However, the power of the three previous Divine Souls had almost maxed out his cultivation at the boundary of the True Martial Realm, so his aura didn't increase much after swallowing this Divine Soul.
But at the same time, black scale-like armor, akin to metal, grew on his skin and his Physical Strength surged significantly.
