Extraordinary awakening, I can transform into a world-destroying monster

Chapter 251 The Beast Deep Within the Soul

Boom boom boom! !

The energy of the Supreme Hell was even more domineering, instantly dispersing all the power within Jiang Hou's body upon entering, whether it was the raging divine weapon's origin or the demonic energy.

Several energies merged into a black and red power, circulating within Jiang Hou's body along a more complete route of the Prison Suppressing True Body.

Instantly, an aura belonging to the seventh rank spread out.

However, as Jiang Hou began to break through his realm, his consciousness was almost shattered by the terrifying intent that entered his body along with the hellish energy.

It was clearly just a barely perceptible wisp of ancient remnant consciousness, yet it was extremely domineering, containing an aura of majesty that swept away everything, overlooking billions of living beings.

Even Jiang Hou's self-proclaimed strong and resilient will could not withstand it. He was pressed down by that terrifying will and sank continuously until he suddenly felt his 'whole body' relax.

At the same time, his consciousness entered a distorted world.

Here, half the land and sky are bathed in sunshine and swaying vegetation, while the other half is filled with rolling dark clouds, the earth broken and cracked, and an atmosphere of destruction and oppression pervading the air.

"This place...is where my soul resides." Jiang Hou's consciousness was somewhat taken aback and curious.

Unexpectedly, he touched his own soul under such circumstances. Despite facing the invasion of an ancient will, Jiang Hou felt no anxiety or unease upon arriving here.

It seems that his 'soul' is not afraid of that invincible ancient will at all.

boom!
The world of the soul trembled, the sky shattered, and huge cracks appeared. Behind the cracks, a blurry figure stood, impossible to see clearly.

boom!
The soul space trembled and shattered once more, and a palm descended from the sky with a world-destroying force, intending to destroy Jiang Hou's consciousness in one blow.

The instant he was enveloped by the overwhelming hand, an immense surge of rage erupted within Jiang Hou.

Roar!
An ancient and desolate roar shook the entire soul world. The earth in the center of the world shattered, and an arm covered in black fur reached out.

This arm was like a mountain range, reaching to the heavens and the earth, and its outstretched palm was dozens of times larger than the manifestation of the ancient will.

boom!
Amidst the tremors in the soul world, the black arm seized the hand of the ancient will, followed by an indescribable burst of terrifying power.

Instantly, the sky collapsed, and the ancient will's phantom was pulled into the soul world by that arm, disappearing into the depths of the shattered earth.

"Swallowing the heavens..."

Amidst the faint, indistinct sounds, Jiang Hou's consciousness was forced out of his soul world by a powerful repulsive force before he could even react, returning him to the outside world.

As soon as he returned to his 'body', streams of profound information flooded into Jiang Hou's consciousness, plunging him into a state of half-sleep and half-awake.

The strange phenomena in Shen Gong Fei Yue's eyes had disappeared, leaving only rolling black and red demonic energy covering the square. Jiang Hou sat cross-legged amidst the churning demonic energy.

The Yama Demon Blade, with a row of barbs growing from its back, lay horizontally on Jiang Hou's knee, emitting a dark red blood-red light that enveloped him.

At the same time, two illusory ghosts, each a hundred meters tall, stood behind Jiang Hou, like two guardian deities, protecting Jiang Hou as he broke through to the next level.

Even with Shen Gong Fei Yue's strength, she couldn't help but show fear in her eyes when she looked at the two evil ghost phantoms.

Even though it was just a 'power projection', Shen Gong Fei Yue had the illusion that it was the true form of two celestial demons, which made her feel a sense of danger.

There was also that ancient will descending; hopefully, Jiang Hou could stop it. Shen Gong Fei Yue's expression was solemn.

She had actually experienced that scene before, and was almost possessed by the ancient will stirred up by the ancient angel's feathers, but fortunately she managed to stop the erosion and corruption in the end.

However, Jiang Hou has reached his current level at an astonishing speed, so there shouldn't be any problem with that, right?

As Shen Gong Feiyue unfurled her three pairs of pure white wings, a faint hymn of angels echoed in the void, and the invisible white light emanating from her became even softer.

These white rays merged with the dark red hellish energy without causing any conflict, eventually covering Jiang Hou's entire body and intertwining with the red blood light. Under the shroud of the angelic hymn, Jiang Hou's slightly furrowed brow relaxed considerably.

Because of Shen Gong Fei Yue's orders, even though Jiang Hou's breakthrough was incredibly powerful, not a single superhuman from the Ancient God Research Institute came to disturb him.

Of course, not bothering them doesn't mean those people aren't curious.

Sensing the increasingly terrifying aura emanating from the area behind them, many extraordinary individuals flashed and landed on the rooftops of buildings or the tops of trees.

However, the black and red demonic energy swirled behind them, making it impossible to see what was actually happening there.

As time passed, the sun began to set from noon.

As the sun disappeared below the horizon and night was about to fall, Jiang Hou, surrounded by black and red demonic energy, slowly opened his eyes, revealing a pair of black and red eyes.

His dark red eyes held a majestic and cold gaze, like those of an ancient emperor who had existed for hundreds of millions of years.

Shen Gong Feiyue was immediately startled, almost thinking that Jiang Hou had failed.

But then Jiang Hou blinked slightly, and the ancient look in his eyes disappeared, replaced by a gentle gaze tinged with a faint indifference.

"I'm fine, senior."

Jiang Hou spoke slowly, and then summoned the attribute page with a thought.

Name: Jiang Hou

Level: Physical Body Side [Mid-to-Late Stage 6] Divine Weapon Side [Early Stage 7, Hell Power: 154304]

Strength: 23810→26420
Agility: 14724→19884
Soul: 302→455
Seal of Inheritance
Divine Weapon: Yama Demon Blade [Rank: Five Stars, Fifth Layer of Hell Demon Suppression: Yama True Form 10/100]

Enma's Ultimate Technique: Soul-Sealing Instant Slash, Hell Descends, Supreme Throne [Standing atop the Throne of Hell, all divine weapon techniques enter an awakened state, gaining twelve times the power]

Derivative Divine Weapons: The Book of Life and Death of the Heavens [Controls life and death, judges sins]; The Wheel of Hell of the Heavens [Carries the power of a region of hell, suppressing heaven and earth].

Behemoth Form

Bloodline: Purgatory Sky-Piercing Divine Ape [Top-tier legendary behemoth, second evolution, current height 115 → 119.4 meters...]

This breakthrough has greatly enhanced Jiang Hou's strength in all aspects.

His physical body directly entered the late stage of the sixth tier. Driven by his foundation, his behemoth form grew by more than four meters, equivalent to eating three seventh-tier ferocious beasts.

Now, the cost for the Purgatory Divine Ape to grow one meter is several times that of before.

However, the biggest change is to the Yama Demon Blade. All the divine weapon powers that were originally included in the divine weapon notes have been separated and become exclusive ultimate skills.

In addition, the originally illusory Wheel of Hell and the Book of Life and Death of the Heavens obtained from the fragments of the divine weapon have all evolved into conceptual divine weapons.

This divine weapon is a derivative of the Yama Demon Blade, similar to the physical manifestation of a certain cultivation technique's ability reaching its peak.

As for its power, you'll only know how strong it is by trying it.

The biggest gain from this breakthrough was that Jiang Hou finally understood why his giant beast form was 'not large enough'.

Because his soul was bound, trapped deep within the soul world by his subconscious as a 'human,' he could not fully unleash the power of a behemoth and could not transform into a true colossal beast of heaven and earth.

Unleashing the shackles is simple: release your animalistic instincts, let your conscious and subconscious mind both believe that you are a giant beast, a colossal beast of heaven and earth.
