Douluo: Emerald Poison King

Chapter 465 · MVP and the Lazy Winner
If it were a sacrifice to some unknown Soul Master, the Purple-Winged Flying Dragon Emperor would absolutely refuse, even if it meant tearing their soul apart. However, if sacrificing oneself to a dragon-type martial soul of a god-level being as a Soul Ring would allow one to maintain their sanity afterward, then the Purple-Winged Flying Dragon Emperor would naturally not refuse.

To become a part of the dragon, even if I die, it's worth it!
Moreover, judging from the way the Evil Emperor looks, he might not really die that completely!

Just as the two beast kings, the Purple Winged Dragon King and the Exploding Bear King, were standing side by side, Chen Ming awakened the Demon Tentacle King and then slapped it. His divine power pierced directly into the Demon Tentacle King's body, forming a complex seal within it. The energy contained in that seal was even greater than the Demon Tentacle King's own energy in its current weakened state.

Under Chen Ming's control, the Demon Tentacle King was forced to curl up into a ball and then fell into a deep sleep. Chen Ming then threw it into the storage soul tool that he had specially made, which was shaped like a red and white ball.

After dealing with the foreign tribes, the three ferocious beast-level evil eyes were awakened one by one by the evil emperor's big mouth. Under the "kind" gaze of their father/great-grandfather, the three evil eyes, who had been controlled by the evil emperor since birth, dared not resist and agreed to be turned into strange things.

Although in their view, this so-called spirit should be a unique means of enslaving the soul, as long as it is not too cruel or the torture is too excessive, it is still better than the soul being scattered, right?

It shouldn't be too cruel, right?

The three evil eyes stared at the semi-transparent Evil Emperor, their hearts filled with unease, yet they dared not utter a single question. They willingly cooperated with Chen Ming's methods to perform the sacrifice, and were transformed into three rhomboid crystals.

The Evil Eye Clan is a special race. After their physical bodies are destroyed, a crystal containing their soul remains. They only die completely after this crystal is shattered. According to the Douluo Continent, this is when their soul rings are released.

These three crystals were created by Chen Ming using the characteristics of the Evil Eye itself and the soul cores within them. They are special external soul bones attached to the third eye, possessing not only the growth potential of ordinary external soul bones, but also the ability to fuse with the head soul bone, providing a certain amount of their own power to the head bone for growth.

Most importantly, each of these crystals contains a pre-made Evil Eye Tyrant Soul Spirit. After absorbing this external Soul Bone, the Soul Spirit will automatically bind to the user and provide the user with a Soul Ring.

Although it shares the same name and similarities with the spirits in the original story's timeline, the spirits Chen Ming creates are actually similar to, yet different from, those in the original work. Specifically, once a spirit is absorbed, it becomes completely bound and cannot be released; upon the death of the spirit master, the spirit shatters along with them.

Whether one's soul is scattered or directly enters reincarnation depends on their condition.

Ultimately, this only improves the utilization efficiency of a single soul beast, without taking into account the factor of inheritance.

Creating a spirit requires the consent of a spirit beast, but this version of the spirit beast will die along with the spirit master, so the spirit beast will never consent unless there are extremely special circumstances. And if the spirit beast does not consent, it is impossible to create a spirit beast. If you have to explain it, it can only be a special technology that cannot be spread.

In order to spread the faith, Chen Ming had the Evil Emperor make arrangements once again. As the emperor who ruled the Demon Forest, the Evil Emperor also spread his message throughout the Demon Forest in a very short time.

A large number of fleeing soul beasts returned, or rather, were forcibly captured by the Evil Eye Clan. The noble Evil Eye Tyrants came to the Evil Emperor's lair to pay their respects. Leading them was the Evil Emperor's fourth son, an Evil Eye Tyrant with 290,000 years of cultivation.

The Evil Emperor's second son died during a tribulation that took two hundred thousand years of cultivation, and his third son died during a tribulation that took three hundred thousand years. After witnessing his two older brothers being struck down, the fourth son simply decided to enjoy his remaining life as much as possible before his tribulation ended. Because he lacked ambition, he was also the Evil Emperor's second favorite child in the Demon Forest. He spread countless bloodlines throughout the Demon Forest and even had a penchant for interacting with other races, creating many unique races.

According to bloodlines, the Evil Eye Demon Ape clan is the bloodline left behind by this fourth brother.

Upon seeing the Evil Emperor's semi-transparent body, the fourth brother was quite surprised, and without thinking, his feelings blurted out.

"Thank goodness, Dad, you're not dead!"

"Hmm?" Even though he knew that his youngest son, who had given up on himself, was somewhat mentally retarded, the Evil Emperor still couldn't believe that he could say something as low in emotional intelligence as a soft-boned rabbit on the roadside.

Although he felt uncomfortable, the Evil Emperor could sense that his fourth brother was probably the one who was truly worried about him. Otherwise, he wouldn't have said something so thoughtless.

Seeing the Evil Emperor glare at him, the fourth Evil-Eyed Tyrant was immediately startled and realized what he had said. Tears almost welled up in his huge eyes.

The Evil Emperor was a responsible father, but he was by no means kind. Most of his remaining affection was given to his eldest son. Apart from the period immediately after his birth when the fourth son experienced some of his father's kindness, he basically did not receive much of the Evil Emperor's affection.

Looking at his angry father, the fourth son thought he was about to be beaten, but to his surprise, the Evil Emperor just sighed.

"Fine, you're the only one left who's capable. I'll forgive you since you're just a bit slow on the uptake. To make a long story short, I'm going to follow a demigod on the path to godhood. Your eldest brother, sixth brother, and my great-grandson led a bunch of soul beasts to my lair to try and steal something, but I crippled them."

"I'm leaving today. Before I go, I'll take care of things. From now on, you'll be the ruler of the Demon Forest. After I ascend to the God Realm, I'll take care of you there."

"Huh?" The fourth brother didn't understand what the Evil Emperor meant at all, and the Evil Emperor didn't need him to understand. He simply stuffed a bunch of things into the fourth brother's mind with his mental power. Then he ignored the fourth brother and went on to give his speech.

By the time the fourth brother realized what was happening, he had inexplicably become the second emperor of the Demon Forest, and both 100,000-year-old soul beasts and ancient ferocious beasts had submitted to him.

Turning to look at the Evil Emperor, one discovers that several unruly troublemakers are now wrapped around his translucent tentacles, while the other tentacles are carving enormous statues on the boulder.

It was a statue whose face was obscured, but for some reason, everyone who looked directly at the statue felt a deep-seated fear, as if they were being locked onto by some indescribable being.
