Shen Yifei followed the procession of offerings, the fish passing through the massive stone gate.

As he walked, he mentally planned how he should act when he met the Soul-Devouring Demon God.

After passing through the long corridor, the view suddenly opened up before us.

A massive underground palace came into view.

The palace was about a hundred feet tall, its dome inlaid with countless luminous pearls, like a sky full of stars. In the very center of the palace stood a massive black altar.

Above the altar, a huge face slowly materialized, with limbs visible below it, making it look like a deformed child with developmental delays.

The face was blurry, except for a pair of blood-red eyes that were exceptionally clear, like two burning flames staring at the thirty-eight living people in front of the altar.

The Heavenly Demon stepped forward and knelt on one knee. "Reporting to the Demon God, this time the sacrifices consist of thirty-eight people, including twenty-five humans and thirteen sea monsters. The highest cultivation level is the early stage of Tribulation Transcending, and the lowest is the Foundation Establishment stage."

The blood-red eyes scanned the offerings below, finally settling on Shen Yifei, where they paused for two breaths.

Shen Yifei was startled. Had this old man figured something out?

But he felt he had disguised himself well; the aura of the Five Elements Demon God was hidden in the deepest part of the vortex and should not be discovered.

"Hmm, that kid's not bad." The Soul Devouring Demon God pointed at Shen Yifei. "Although his cultivation isn't high, his soul is well-nurtured. Put him first; I'll be the first to enjoy him."

Shen Yifei cursed inwardly, "You old pervert, you set your sights on me first! You'll regret this later!"

But he feigned extreme fear, shrinking into a ball and trembling, "Spare...spare me, sir...my cultivation is weak, my flesh is tough...and smells fishy, ​​it's not tasty..."

"Hahaha..." The face let out a low laugh, "I don't eat meat, I only absorb your soul."

Having said that, the Soul Devouring Demon God spat out a thin thread from its mouth and shot it toward Shen Yifei.

Shen Yifei rolled over and barely dodged! In the instant he dodged, he deliberately dropped the beauty's soul out, which spun around on the ground.

A unique fragrance filled the air.

"Hmm? What's that smell... What kind of pill is this?"

Shen Yifei hurriedly went to pick up the pill.

"stop!"

Shen Yifei had only stretched out halfway when he saw the beauty's soul spin twice on the ground before slowly floating up and flying in front of the Soul-Devouring Demon God.

"Hmm...good quality, clear patterns, mild medicinal properties...very much like the Soul of a Beauty..."

The Soul-Devouring Demon God scrutinized him carefully, and Shen Yifei's heart was in his throat. Whether he could kill the Soul-Devouring Demon God today depended on this one move!

"Hmm...this taste...is it the Beauty Soul refined with Phoenix Clan bloodline? A rare find!"

"My lord, spare my life! That...that's my family's heirloom elixir!" Shen Yifei feigned a sob. "If you like it, my lord, I'm willing to offer it up. I only beg you to spare my life!"

"An ancestral elixir?" The Soul-Devouring Demon God stared at the beautiful soul floating before him with blood-red eyes, making a "tsk tsk" sound of admiration. "In all these tens of thousands of years, I have never seen a beautiful soul refined with the bloodline of the Phoenix Clan. Boy, tell me the truth, where did you get this elixir from?"

Shen Yifei knelt on the ground, not daring to raise his head, his voice trembling with sobs: "Your Excellency, it was left by my ancestors. It is said that my ancestor saved a woman from the Phoenix Clan, and that woman refined this elixir to repay the debt of gratitude."

"Heh, a Phoenix Clan woman?" The Soul Devouring Demon God clearly didn't believe Shen Yifei's explanation.

"Your Honor, everything I have said is true. If I have uttered even one lie, may I be struck by lightning and die a horrible death! I only beg Your Honor to spare my life."

"Struck by lightning?" The Soul Devouring Demon God let out a sharp laugh. "You think I would believe such things? But..." He stared at the Beauty Soul, stretched out his finger, and lightly touched the pill with his fingertip.

The beauty's soul spun twice on her fingertips, and beneath its pink shell, a faint golden light could be seen flowing slowly.

The Soul-Devouring Demon God was overjoyed. A pill made from the essence blood of a phoenix might contain the power of Nirvana.

Even a tiny bit of help can be incredibly beneficial to one's recovery.

His remaining soul is less than one ten-thousandth the strength of his original soul. Relying solely on the nourishment of the souls of these offerings, it's unknown when he will recover.

He's very anxious now, because there's not much time left before the promise they made years ago is up!

If someone else beats us to it, all these years of hard work will be for nothing!

Soul Devourer examined the pill closely and discovered that its center seemed to contain something special.

But he couldn't see through it!

Could it be that the Phoenix Clan's rebirth power is contained within?

Seeing the Soul Devouring Demon God's hesitant expression, Shen Yifei felt uneasy.

If that old geezer discovers there's something wrong with the pill, then we're completely finished today. But if he swallows it, then the rest of the show will be much easier.

"Hmm... It is indeed the scent of the Phoenix Clan bloodline, and not just any Phoenix Clan bloodline, but royal bloodline."

Shen Yifei's heart tightened. This old man's nose was really sharp. He mustn't smell the Five Elements Demon God's scent.

He quickly added, "Your Excellency is wise! The phoenix woman my ancestor saved is said to be a member of the phoenix royal family. She said this pill was made with her life essence and blood, and it can not only prolong life and enhance cultivation, but most importantly, it can replenish the soul."

"Made from the life essence of the Phoenix Clan? Doesn't that mean it might contain the Phoenix Clan's rebirth power?"

Shen Yifei looked puzzled. "The power of Nirvana? Our ancestors never mentioned this, so I am unaware of it."

"Haha..." Soul Eater burst into wild laughter, making Shen Yifei feel a little guilty.

Soul Devourer's words just now were a test. If Shen Yifei said he had the power of Nirvana, then he was talking nonsense, and there might be something wrong with the pill.

Even he couldn't tell what was hidden in the core of that pill!

At this moment, Soul Devourer was somewhat certain that the core of the pill was to conceal the Phoenix Clan's Nirvana Power, which was refined from their life essence blood!

He said slowly, "Since you have offered me this pill, I am always fair in my rewards and punishments, and I will spare your life."

"Thank you, sir! Thank you for sparing my life!"

"Don't thank me yet," the Soul Devouring Demon God interrupted him. "Although I won't kill you, I can't waste your soul. How about this, I'll only absorb half of your soul and spare your life."

Shen Yifei dared not refuse. "Thank you for your mercy, sir! I am willing to offer half of my soul, I only beg you to spare my lowly life!"

The Soul Devouring Demon God nodded in satisfaction. "Hmm... Since you're so sensible, I can't treat you unfairly. I'll take you as a Soul Envoy. Following me from now on, you'll certainly reap the benefits."

"Thank you so much for your guidance, sir!" Shen Yifei expressed his deepest gratitude.

But inside, he was incredibly anxious, thinking, "You must devour the beauty's soul first! You must devour the beauty's soul first!!"
