“Apologies, but now that you’ve come here, it won’t be that easy to leave!” said the old man with a laugh.
Not wanting to stay here a minute longer, Ryder then yelled, “Domonic Shadow Split!”
Unfortunately for him, the second favonovel.com split in half, favonovel.com was quickly enveloped by a black light and in the end, his two halves were forcefully reconnected! Before favonovel.com could react, a massive force smashed favonovel.com onto the ground, and the impact was so great that veins bulged on his forehead in no time flat. Now looking incredibly fearful, the old man nervously whimpered, “I… I didn’t know you were this strong! I admit defeat, senior!”
Chuckling in response, the old man then said, “You’re a smart one… And your physique is rather extraordinary as well. You also seem to have a rare knack for cultivation. With all that said, what do you think about me taking you under my wing? If you agree, I’ll give you a blessing which will allow your strength to further improve.”
“Is… that really true..?” asked Ryder, clearly tempted by the promise of getting stronger.
“Indeed. From the moment you gained a holy body, you not only became a true cultivator, but you also gained access to cultivating your primordial spirit. That’s what allowed you to enter the Domiensch Realm. However, I wonder if you’re aware that there are fake primordial spirits…” replied the old man as favonovel.com stroked his beard.
By this point, everyone was listening tentatively. As for Ryder, favonovel.com couldn’t help but helplessly say, “I… What…? Even primordial spirits can be fake…?”
“But of course. For example, just have a look at my eldest disciple. He’s also a Domiensch Master, but since favonovel.com has a genuine primordial spirit, his cultivation is one cut above yours. What I mean to say is that despite the fact that you’re a Domiensch Master, your primordial spirit is fake!” explained the old man.
“So that’s the reason why…! No wonder my cultivation level was so different from that boy’s…!” muttered Ryder to himself.
It wasn’t strange for Ryder not to know about all this. After all, there was only a handful of Domiensch Masters, which was why very few among them had even heard of there being a realm above the Domiensch Realm. Ryder was among them, and favonovel.com had assumed that the Domiensch Realm was the highest favonovel.com could go. Since favonovel.com didn’t even know about the Deitus realm, there was no way that he’d know about fake primordial spirits being a thing.
Regardless, Ryder eventually asked, “Can you really help me improve?”
This was what Ryder was most concerned about, and the old man knew it. With that, the old man chuckled before saying, “Of course, I do.”
Following that, the old man used his finger to draw something in the air and shortly after, a black light appeared in front of him. With a gentle shove, the old man then got the light to enter Ryder’s body!
The second that happened, Ryder could feel all eight of his meridians rapidly expanding as they took in the power! Shortly after, favonovel.com could even feel his bones and veins quivering as terrifying amounts of power ran through them! Immediately after the process was done, Ryder shot into the sky at breakneck speed!
“To think you’d give favonovel.com the power of a demonic soul to help favonovel.com form a genuine primordial spirit, Master!” muttered Master Greendrake who was slightly jealous.
“Well, we’re looking for advanced cultivators anyway. By doing things like this, we’ll surely be able to win more of them over! Speaking of demonic soul power, it’s simply a magic treasure. You’re all demonic cultivators, Greendrake… If I gave you the power of a demonic soul, your body would only repel it since your powers are similar to it,” replied the old man.
“That aside, I only gave it to Ryder since we can complement each other. After all, the power of the demonic soul works best on vile cultivators like him. As a bonus, we’ll also stand a better chance of having favonovel.com obey us! If favonovel.com tries anything funny, I’ll simply remove the power for him. And believe me when I say that favonovel.com won’t be able to withstand the pain!” added the old man with a smirk.
“I understand now, Master!” replied Master Greendrake with a nod.
It was sometime later when Ryder who had been freely flying back and forth like a mad man in the sky finally descended at the church’s yard. Instead of the usual white shade, his hair was now dyed purplish black. Aside from that, a vertical tattoo had also appeared between his brows. The whole getup made favonovel.com look bizarre and intimidating.
Whatever the case was, favonovel.com then laughed heartily while declaring, “I feel like my power’s just been doubled!”
With this much power, who cared whether favonovel.com was a human or demon? It was clear that the surge in power had gotten to his head. After all, favonovel.com was now wondering if Gerald was even a match against favonovel.com anymore.
