An hour later, Yang Kai opened his eyes. He seemed as mighty as a dragon and fierce as a tiger, his face flushed red and his eyes bright, no longer looking weak and dispirited.

He circulated his Secret Art and disappeared in a flash, reappearing in front of the Embodiment.

The huge Embodiment opened his eyes and looked at Yang Kai when he sensed his presence.

Looking at each other, Yang Kai spoke, “The Artifact Spirit does not seem to have been completely obliterated. There is still a trace of its Soul hiding in the War Hammer, so be careful.”

The Embodiment grinned, spreading all five of his fingers, “You mean this?”

Yang Kai fixed his eyes and saw a mass of condensed Black Qi in the palm of the Embodiment, squirming about as if it had some spirituality, trying to escape from its confinement. However, this place was the Small Sealed World inside the Sealed World Bead, and the Embodiment and Yang Kai shared the same Soul, so with one thought, the World Principles here could be commanded by either of them. Under such a situation, how could this mass of Black Qi escape? Although it was merely held in the palm of the Embodiment, it was suppressed by the Small Sealed World itself, like a beast trapped in a cage.

“Did you force it out?” Yang Kai asked quizzically.

The Embodiment shook his head, “It appeared by itself.”

“Why?” Yang Kai’s eyes widened.

The Embodiment chuckled, “It probably sensed danger.”

Yang Kai asked in amazement, “What did you do?”

“Nothing much…” The Embodiment patted his stomach and replied grimly, “I just tried eating it.”

The corners of Yang Kai’s mouth twitched when he heard that as he grumbled, “Will that be a problem? That was an Ancient Demon Artifact on par with a peak grade Emperor Artifact, possibly even higher. What would happen to you if you just swallow it like this…?”

“According to the Heaven Devouring Battle Law, there is nothing that cannot be devoured, so what does a trivial Demonic Weapon count for?” The Embodiment smiled proudly, “You haven’t cultivated this Secret Art personally, so it’s only natural that you don’t know how profound it is, but don’t worry, I wouldn’t be doing this if I didn’t have complete confidence. If I was stronger, not just the spirit of a Demonic Weapon, I could also devour that Demon Spirit sealed in your body!”

Yang Kai stiffened and asked in shock, “Is that possible? Isn’t that Secret Art invincible then?”

laughed, “I’m probably the only one who can do it. Even if you cultivate it, it would be impossible to achieve similar results. Although your physical body is strong enough, you wouldn’t be able to withstand the contamination of that pure Demon Qi. If you cultivate the Heaven Devouring Battle Law, I’m afraid it won’t be long before you lose your sanity and devolve into a beast driven by the instinct

Yang Kai nodded. “That old dog Wu Meng Shan was really up to no good. I don’t
