Chapter 941 My Body, My Rules!

"Anti-magic Blood Curse?"

A consciousness that was neither male nor female, nor even a voice, was directly imprinted into Yin Zilu's sea of ​​consciousness.

Having just awakened, Yin Zilu could only control her eyes, and her consciousness was still somewhat hazy.

However, the appearance of this consciousness quickly restored Yin Zilu's clarity.

Yin Zilu struggled to move her eyes. The first thing she saw was a sky covered with dark clouds, so dark it seemed to be pressing down on her. But within this darkness, rays of light pierced through the thick clouds, casting warm and bright beams of light between the earth and the sky. One of these beams fell squarely on Yin Zilu, and she felt a faint warmth dispelling the chill around her.

Turning my eyes again, I saw the edge of the city, almost completely leveled, a silent land covered with ravines and scars, filled with blood and corpses.

She didn't immediately respond to the consciousness's actions, nor did she cause any change in it. It simply appeared in Yin Zilu's mind again, "You seem to want to trap me? With your own body?"

"How interesting. You are a demon, yet you are unwilling to become my vessel."

The contents of this consciousness seemed to contain different emotions, but in Yin Zilu's perception, she only felt an emptiness and silence like the land of Yunzhou.

"Become my vessel, and you will become the most powerful being in this world, perhaps even another being to successfully ascend in this gradually lost world!" Although the consciousness was silent, its directness into the depths of the heart was incredibly tempting.

As this consciousness emerged, the suppressed black tide in Yin Zilu's eyes began to surge, but the forbidden spell patterns on her body emitted a faint light, suppressing the black tide once again.

Yin Zilu felt her consciousness become chaotic for a moment, then suddenly cleared up. She finally withdrew her gaze, turned her mind back to her body, and finally responded to that consciousness.

"This is my body! Whether it exists or perishes is entirely up to me!"

Yin Zilu's consciousness had been weakened by the black tide, but her mind remained strong in her sea of ​​consciousness, answering without hesitation and with a resolute air.

From the very beginning, when the Demon Emperor found her among the demons, bestowed upon her the surname Yin, and granted her the glory of a saintess, Yin Zilu knew that her life was destined to be nothing but a bubble.

Whether it's the surname Yin or the title of Holy Maiden, it's all just her cage and chains from beginning to end.

She has a wise and brave mother.

For thousands of years, all living beings on this land—humans, demons, and monsters—have never given up their pursuit of ascension, and Yin Zilu's birth is part of the demon race's ascension plan.

For nearly a thousand years, the Demon Race's ascension plan has focused on the Demon Gods of the Upper Realm. Breaking the boundary is not difficult, at least not for the major powers in the cultivation world. What is difficult is that without the guidance of the Upper Realm, most cultivators will only get lost in the endless void. If their cultivation is not high enough and they have not undergone the baptism of the Heavenly Dao of ascension, it will be even more difficult for them to survive in the void outside the boundary.

Since it's impossible to travel from the lower realm to the upper realm, the only option is for cultivators from the upper realm to descend to the lower realm!
Perhaps, in this way, we can be guided to the higher realms.

This was a high-stakes plan, because no one knew what kind of demon god would be summoned, or even whether they could truly achieve ascension.

However, in the Spirit Ruins Realm where ascension is becoming increasingly unlikely, for all high-level cultivators, even if there is only a one in ten thousand chance, it is worth the risk and the attempt, especially for those Nascent Soul cultivators who are gradually approaching the end of their lives.

Thus, a series of plans to guide the demon god to descend came into being. Yin Zilu's birth was part of the demon race's plan from the very beginning. In other words, as long as one possessed the Heavenly Net Nether Body, she or he would be Yin Zilu, the demon race's holy maiden and holy son!
It was never that Yin Zilu came first, and then Tianluo Youti came second; rather, it was because Tianluo Youti came first, and then Yin Zilu came second, and then the Demon Saintess.

In order to produce suitable vessels for childbirth, the Yin royal family secretly abducted countless demon women with outstanding qualities, not to mention the demon empress palace in public. High-level cultivators found it difficult to give birth to offspring, and even if they did, they could not guarantee the quality of their offspring.

Therefore, over thousands of years, the Demon Clan has only successfully produced one Heavenly Net Nether Body, Yin Zilu.

In the long years before Yin Zilu was born, countless Yin family offspring were born, and countless others were ruthlessly destroyed because of insufficient aptitude. Only a few with sufficient aptitude were qualified to survive and eventually become Yin family's secret agents.

Yin Zilu's mother was a demon woman who was abducted by the Yin royal family to bear children. She was originally from a small demon family, but she was exceptionally talented and ultimately became their death warrant.

Even the smallest person, the most insignificant ant, has their own way of surviving.

Yin Zilu's mother's family possessed a secret technique that could temporarily conceal the secrets of heaven. However, the use of this forbidden technique came at a great cost. Yin Zilu's mother paid the price of her life to conceal the secrets of heaven for Yin Zilu for several years, thus securing a brief period of freedom for her.

After being found by the Demon Emperor, Yin Zilu began a period of seclusion. She knew that once her cultivation reached a certain level, it would mean the end of her life. She also knew that she could not slow down her cultivation, because countless eyes were watching her.

She couldn't reveal any suspicious information, because she couldn't afford to lose her limited freedom any further.

Yin Zilu could only slowly, little by little, try to extend her tentacles, try to gain the trust of more people, try to acquire more power, and try to master more strength, so that she could have a chance to fight back!

How could the Buddhist sect have discovered a plan that the demons had kept hidden for centuries? Was her encounter with the Buddhist disciples truly just a coincidence? How could Wuxie Sanren, who had lived in seclusion in human territory for many years, suddenly receive news about the demons? Why would she personally meet with a group of people of unknown origin who suddenly approached her? She was clearly the holy maiden of the demons, yet she cooperated with the humans just to kill a holy son, leaving behind possible incriminating evidence?

Yin Zilu is like a spider weaving a web. She doesn't trust anyone. She will only weave a large web little by little, with the sole purpose of getting rid of the spider web that traps her!

She knew that the human race would not allow the demon race to successfully descend upon the Demon God, and she also knew that the human race would not allow her to live.

Whether human or demon, she was destined to be sacrificed.

Yin Zilu saw things clearly; she was destined to be unable to escape. The demons' plan, which had taken thousands of years to complete, the methods they had left on her, and the eyes they had planted behind her, would not give her any chance to leave.

Survival or destruction? Yin Zilu couldn't decide to survive, but she thought she could at least decide to destroy!

Seemingly sensing something, the consciousness that had always been devoid of emotion in Yin Zilu's mind began to fluctuate for the first time. It was very subtle, but very clear in Yin Zilu's sea of ​​consciousness.

"What do you want to do?"

The interaction with the energy of heaven and earth made this consciousness instinctively sense danger.

With difficulty, Yin Zilu managed to tug at the corners of her mouth, raising a slight smile. She repeated in her mind once more, "I said, it's my body, I'm in charge!"

My elderly relative recently fell and is currently hospitalized. Due to their condition, they require constant care at their bedside. Because of my relatively flexible schedule and young age, I've been shuttling between the hospital and home for over a week, my sleep schedule completely disrupted, leaving me feeling foggy-headed. The relative's condition is currently stable, but they require close monitoring. The doctor says they'll need to remain hospitalized for a considerable period, possibly another two weeks if recovery goes smoothly. Today, I finally have a rare night's rest, so on the last day of 2025, I wrote a chapter. If I have the opportunity and time to rest, I'll try to update as much as possible to keep you all informed. I also want to mention this in 2025, and more importantly, to remind readers with elderly family members that cardiovascular diseases are more prevalent in winter, and the blood vessels of the elderly are more fragile. Therefore, please pay close attention to your elderly relatives. If they experience headaches, dizziness, or any discomfort, make sure they speak up and see a doctor as soon as possible. I hope that in 2026, my family, readers, and friends will all be safe, healthy, and blessed with good fortune! Hello, 2026!
