Chapter 435 Clone
Seeing Tong Que's aura rising step by step, the remnant soul of the Ancestral Dragon lowered its eyes: "You absorbed the flesh and soul of these demons, yet you can only reach this level. Compared to the original Demon Lord of the Heavenly Phoenix Plane, you are more than three times worse."

Tong Que's eyes flashed with a blood-red light: "What thing dares to speak to me like that?"

He lightly stomped his foot, and a blood-red mist gathered from all directions, enveloping the two of them completely.

Soon, the crimson mist blocked the vision of the remnant soul of the Ancestral Dragon. Even within this mist, the remnant soul of the Ancestral Dragon felt that the flow of its spiritual energy was somewhat sluggish.

"He does have some skill."

The remnant soul of the First Emperor laughed.

Hidden in the shadows, Tong Que raised his heavy black sword and brought it down heavily towards Lin Zhao's head.

"But that's all." The remnant soul of the Ancestral Dragon turned its back to Tong Que and swung the Holy Dragon Emperor's Spear backward.

Tong Que was knocked to the ground by the spear, and even the surrounding blood-red mist faded a little.

Tong Que looked at the person with pale golden eyes in disbelief: "You can sense my location? Impossible! Even a Tribulation Transcending cultivator couldn't sense the location of our Demon Clan. We Demon Clan are not your race, and..."

The remnant soul of the Ancestral Dragon turned around and walked steadily toward Tong Que, who was slowly standing up: "Since you were born as a natural demon, you should have the relevant inheritance. And what? You, a demon who has not even entered the True Demon realm, dare to covet someone favored by the plane?"

Tong Que stood up, and the blood-red patterns on the black heavy sword in his hand slowly glowed with a dim yet eerie light.

Even Tong Que's originally handsome yet wicked face now bore patterns similar to those on the greatsword. He gripped the greatsword tightly, a ruthless glint in his eyes: "What are you trying to say? What kind of people are favored by this plane? Are you saying that we demons weren't born from this plane? Since this plane gave birth to us, then we should exist!"

The remnant soul of the Ancestral Dragon twitched his lips, neither confirming nor denying: "Your appearance is merely a mistake of creation. Now let me end this mistake."

This statement had already revealed part of his identity, and Tong Que's blood-red face suddenly shone brightly.

"The only one who could truly end the Demon Race is the legendary Creator God. Apart from the Demon Ancestor, almost all of the Creator Gods have perished. The one who can exist as a remnant soul is... the remnant soul of the Ancestral Dragon?"

Hearing Tong Que's speculation while in his sea of ​​consciousness, Lin Zhao couldn't help but sigh. If Tong Que hadn't been lacking in power due to the Heavenly Phoenix Plane and its corresponding weak Demon Realm power, he probably would have already become a True Demon and a terrifying menace.

She couldn't quite understand the conversation between the remnant soul of the Ancestral Dragon and Tong Que. Could it be that ordinary cultivators couldn't truly eradicate the demon race?

Was the birth of the Demon Race a mistake by the creator gods?

What exactly was the mistake?
"Not bad," the remnant soul of the Ancestral Dragon commented. "Even though my power is now only a fraction of what it once was, dealing with a demon in the Tribulation Transcending stage shouldn't be too difficult."

Tong Que gripped his heavy sword, and in a flash, he arrived beside the remnant soul of the Ancestral Dragon. The heavy sword drew a semi-circular arc in the air and crashed into Lin Zhao's body.

Clearly, the markings on his heavy sword and face are a powerful magical technique that enhances his own condition, rather than an offensive spiritual technique.

"So what if you are a remnant soul of the Ancestral Dragon? How much of the original body's power can a mere remnant soul unleash?"

The spear and the heavy sword of the remnant soul of the Ancestral Dragon clashed against each other. The spear and sword collided, and both figures froze at the same time. The heavy sword in Tong Que's hand trembled continuously and turned into dust completely after three breaths.

Meanwhile, the remnant soul of the Ancestral Dragon that had possessed Lin Zhao's body was forced to withdraw from its possession state, and Lin Zhao himself took over the body.

Seeing the gold in her eyes fade and return to the girl's original pupil color, Tong Que, disregarding the destruction of his natal weapon and his own severe injuries, laughed heartily: "Now I'll see who can protect you!" Having regained control of his body, Lin Zhao retrieved the Holy Dragon Emperor Technique Spear, stabilized the pain emanating from his body, and said calmly: "You forcibly absorbed the flesh and blood cultivation of those Nascent Soul stage demons, so your injuries haven't fully recovered, have they?"

Lin Zhao's soul was not damaged. Because of the auxiliary cultivation medicine and talisman, her soul perception was almost comparable to some Great Perfection of the Integration Stage.

In her current perception, Tong Que's strength is at most at the early stage of the Fusion Realm!
It seems that the amplification magic he released after absorbing the flesh and soul of his own kind to forcibly amplify himself was not without negative effects.

In addition, when Tong Que clashed with the remnant soul of the Creator God, his divine soul and strength were weakened, but not amplified. At the level of divine soul, he was no match for the remnant soul of the Ancestral Dragon.

Fighting against the remnant soul of the Ancestral Dragon would be a situation where Tong Que would suffer heavy losses on both sides.

Tong Que said, "So what? Even if you painstakingly aggravated my injuries and can only exert the strength of the early stage of the Fusion Realm now, so what? Do you think that just because I can only exert the strength of the Fusion Realm, you, a Nascent Soul cultivator, are my opponent?"

Lin Zhao summoned the Heavenly Phoenix Bone Sword, "Whether I am your opponent or not will only be known after we have fought."

Tong Que chuckled, as if mocking her overestimation of her abilities.

He clenched his fist forward with one hand, summoning countless demonic energies that coalesced into a heavy black sword. Tong Que's gaze fell upon Lin Zhao. He chanted an incantation, gripping the sword with one hand and lightly touching the blade with the other, letting the sharp edge pierce his own fingertip, drawing black blood.

Blood flowed into the black greatsword, which transformed in Tong Que's hands into countless extremely thin black needles.

He released his grip on the sword hilt and pointed at Lin Zhao: "Go, eat her."

A top-tier, heavenly-grade demonic technique: Thousand Needles Demonic Devour.

Faced with the attack formed by the dense cluster of thin, demonic needles, Lin Zhao channeled his spiritual energy into the Heavenly Phoenix Bone Sword. Golden flames swirled around the Heavenly Phoenix Bone Sword, condensing into golden fire lotuses that rushed towards the Thousand Needle Demon Devourer.

The moment the spinning golden fire lotus touched the Thousand Needle Demon Devourer, two completely different auras exploded together.

After the Thousand Spirits Bloom blocked the Thousand Needles Demon Devouring, Lin Zhao did not sit idle. She opened the Heavenly Phoenix Wings behind her and arrived in front of Tong Que in the next moment.

"Dare to get close to me? You're courting death." Tong Que saw through Lin Zhao's thoughts at a glance and immediately felt humiliated.

He was born with a demonic body, the embodiment of all the core power of the Demon Realm. What is Lin Zhao anyway?
Did they think that the favor of a weak dimension that had finally started to improve would be enough to contend with them?

Tong Que simply dispelled the demonic energy in his hand and raised his hand to try to block Lin Zhao's sword.

Lin Zhao's next sword strike cleaved his body in two.

When Tong Que was split in two by Lin Zhao's close-range Bodhi Slash, both Lin Zhao and Tong Que were stunned.

Tong Que didn't expect Lin Zhao to be able to use his spiritual technique to severely injure him at close range, while Lin Zhao didn't expect his opponent to be so arrogant as to not use any defensive measures when he got close.

Did he really think that his body, which hadn't reached the True Demon Body level, could withstand the Bodhi Slash after the Heavenly Phoenix Bone Sword had gathered its power?
Without the cultivation and soul power of the Tribulation Transcending stage, Tong Que was nothing more than a somewhat troublesome enemy in Lin Zhao's eyes.

However, Tong Que's underestimation of his opponent negated much of the difficulty.
