With his inner gaze, Xiang Shaoyun observed his own blood and found that its color was darkening bit by bit. Although it was still red, it had a tiny tinge of black, looking somewhat different than the blood of a regular human.

However, his blood was still much brighter in comparison with the blood of the devils here, looking like a combination of human and devil blood. Some sort of power seemed to be hidden in his blood, and this power had currently formed some sort of resonance with his Nether Soul Domain, causing the Nether Soul Domain to become increasingly vivid.

But for the current Xiang Shaoyun, the lessening pain of his acupoints and meridians occupied all his focus. This was a change that caused him to be both happy and worried. He was happy that with his foundation repaired, he would be able to regain his combat strength, but he was worried of the trouble his blood could potentially bring him. After all, humans did not generally get along well with devils.

”Now is not the time to think about that. I should focus on repairing my foundation before upgrading my footwork intent.” Xiang Shaoyun decided to toss it all into the back of his mind. He then increased the speed at which he absorbed wind energy.

As he repaired his foundation, his absorption speed grew. Due to his bloodline, a large amount of devilish energy was also converging around him before entering his body. His blood came alive and coursed all over his body, nouris.h.i.+ng his entire being. His vitality grew boundless, and his bodily const.i.tution started transforming.

It was an extremely astonis.h.i.+ng transformation. His veins, meridians, and acupoints all expanded, and his inner organs grew more durable.. More importantly, when the blood reached his head, his Nether Soul Domain finally became fully solid. Its size grew, and his soul became more solid, looking sparkling and translucent. His soul power instantly multiplied several times over.

Before this, Xiang Shaoyun had a soul power comparable to that of a third-stage or even a fourth-stage Emperor. Now, his soul had become comparable to a fifth-stage Emperor's in strength. Furthermore, the solidity of his soul was something no Emperor could compare with.

In the Nether Soul Domain, the Nether Dragon Soul Headband started emitting an indescribable power as it started absorbing strands of the nether soul energy. The dragon-shaped loop of the headband seemed to have come alive, forming the apparition of a dragon around it.

All these changes were too shocking, something that n.o.body would have expected. Xiang Shaoyun spent an entire day and night seated in meditation, completely submersed in his transformation.

Right this moment, two black figures drifted over along with a gust of wind. These were two devil wind beasts, both around the third-stage and fourth-stage Devil King Realms. However, they possessed a speed comparable to a sixth-stage King. They had a natural advantage in this kind of environment because they could move along with the wind.

They had noticed Xiang Shaoyun, and a look of bloodl.u.s.t filled their eyes. A number of humans had intruded upon their territory, and a command had been issued to slay these human intruders. These two were the Devil Kings tasked to hunt the humans at the outer fringe of their territory.

One of the beasts concealed itself and opened its mouth wide before aiming it at Xiang Shaoyun. A powerful suction force erupted, instantly pulling a large amount of dust and pebbles along with Xiang Shaoyun toward its mouth.

This was an innate ability of the devil wind beast, Heaven Devouring Exhalation. They could multiply the power of their inhalation and exhalation with the power of wind. Right as Xiang Shaoyun was pulled into the devil wind beast's mouth, he suddenly opened his eyes. Both his hands shot out and grabbed at the edge of the mouth, stopping the beast from swallowing him.

Seven Scorching Sun Claws, Jade Tearing Stance!

He a.s.sumed a clawing stance while a formidable power of flame surged out of him, instantly tearing the mouth apart.
