I've already been given the title of Douluo, and you want me to be reasonable?

Lin Yuan's eyes were firm, and his tone was resolute and unquestionable: "I'm sorry, but if you die, I will be just as ruthless and decisive, leaving myself no regrets."

"This is utterly ridiculous, Lin Yuan. You really are a complete scoundrel. Since you are so stubborn, then let me show you what a true Asura God King is all about."

And you are nothing more than a substitute for the Asura God-King; in the end, only I will become a god!

His inner demons were completely enraged, their eyes flashing with a mad light.

Unmoved by the mockery of his inner demons, Lin Yuan launched another attack.

However, the inner demon's strength was comparable to Lin Yuan's, and it was even able to cleverly utilize the energy of this place to enhance its own strength.

The inner demon relentlessly attacked Lin Yuan's heart with vicious words: "Without human faith, you can't become a god at all. Besides, Lin Yuan, you have killed countless people in your life and have never had a single source of faith. You can't become a god at all."

"It would be better to fall into demonic ways with me; the power of darkness is utterly pure!!"

Lin Yuan looked at the inner demon in front of him, a sarcastic smile playing on his lips, and said coldly, "A guy like you can only hide in your heart. If you don't have a physical body, what ability does an inner demon have to take over your place?"

Seeing that Lin Yuan was not under his control, the inner demon was filled with surprise and anger, and his brows furrowed tightly.

This guy is definitely much harder to deal with than I imagined.

However, this only excited the inner demon even more. In his view, as long as the original consciousness died, he would be able to take over the body. At that time, the entire Douluo Continent would surely become a mountain of corpses and a sea of ​​blood.

The inner demon launched the first attack, and his strength was clearly several times greater than Lin Yuan's.

Lin Yuan felt a tremendous force coming from him, and his body involuntarily staggered backward half a step.

But he gritted his teeth and persevered with his tenacious will to withstand the opponent's attack, his eyes burning with indomitable fighting spirit.

Each collision causes a widespread collapse of the energy within the space.

The inner demon said calmly, "Lin Yuan, don't be ungrateful. I'm not afraid to tell you, if I die, you won't be able to gain any more power. Are you sure you've thought this through?"

"To die and then be reborn, don't you know that?"

Lin Yuan smiled disdainfully, then forcefully drew the Asura Demon Sword from his hand, and as he turned around, he thrust it out again.

A loud roar suddenly sounded.

Fire splattered.

Bang bang bang!
The two forces clashed repeatedly in this place, and the secret room outside was completely frozen by the killing intent. Even Ye Lingling and the others could feel the terrifying chill, and could only huddle together for warmth.

"What terrifying murderous aura! What did the teacher do?"

"My martial spirit is trembling..."

Zhu Zhuqing said, her voice trembling as well.

Xiao Wu didn't know either.

Survival in this world depends on one's own strength; it's a world of survival of the fittest, and karma prevails.

Lin Yuan is capable of killing others, so he would naturally allow others to kill him as well, but whether he has that ability is unknown.

In another space, Lin Yuan forcefully swung the Asura Demon Sword in his hand, and then the nine soul rings on his body quietly lit up.

The inner demon was not to be outdone. He was originally the same person as Lin Yuan, and he also possessed the same skills and soul rings as Lin Yuan.

As several blood-red soul rings lit up, the two unleashed their seventh soul skill, Martial Soul True Body, without any hesitation!
When the two Asura true forms appeared simultaneously, this distorted hellish space trembled violently, and magma shot into the sky like boiling molten iron, melting the corpses hanging in mid-air into blue smoke. Behind Lin Yuan's Asura true form floated nine dark golden battle halberds, while the Heart Demon's true form was wrapped in blood-red chains, the ends of which were condensed into countless distorted human faces, emitting mournful howls.

"Your strength will always be incomplete!"

The inner demon flung out its chains, its human face opening its blood-red maw to bite at Lin Yuan: "Look at these soul rings, which one isn't stained with blood? Without me, you're nothing but a piece of trash to be slaughtered!"

The moment the chains touched Lin Yuan's true form, all nine halberds simultaneously erupted with dazzling light, blasting his face into dust.

Lin Yuan suddenly withdrew his attack, and his aura became calm.

Looking at the raging black mist in the inner demon's eyes, he said in a deep voice, "You say we are one, but you have never known where the true power comes from."

Before he finished speaking, Lin Yuan raised his hand and pressed it against his chest, actually pulling a pulsating golden light core out of his body.

The inner demon's pupils constricted sharply, and the blood-red chains trembled violently and uncontrollably.

The surface of that light core was filled with images of Lin Yuan's life: his small hand gripping the demon sword amidst mountains of corpses and seas of blood, the astonishing power he unleashed to protect his companions, and the glimmer of humanity that never faded amidst the carnage.

"This is my true core."

Lin Yuan tossed the light core into the air, and it instantly transformed into countless points of light, illuminating the entire dark hell. "And you are nothing but a phantom formed from the cowardice and violence I have rejected."

The inner demon roared in resentment, and the blood-red chains lashed out, only to crumble inch by inch the moment they touched the light.

Lin Yuan's nine spirit rings suddenly lost their crimson color and turned into pure gold, and a phantom of a temple forged from faith and protection appeared behind his Asura True Form.

"A monster without a heart will never understand true strength."

Lin Yuan clenched his fist in mid-air, and countless light swords descended from the sky, nailing the true form of the inner demon into the boiling magma.

The inner demon stared in shock, its eyes wide like copper bells, and said unwillingly, "No, impossible! You can't defeat me! I am invincible!!!"

"There are no invincible people in this world, only those who want to become stronger. Inner demons arise from the heart, so naturally I must personally slay you in order to succeed."

"No, you can't kill me! If you kill me, you'll be doomed too! Stop! Stop right now!!!"

The inner demon was utterly terrified at this moment and immediately turned and ran. Unfortunately, if he hadn't been so cowardly, he might have still been able to put up a fight.

But once you start to feel fear, then you really can't continue fighting.

Lin Yuan had completely grasped the space here, and immediately made a grabbing motion with his large hand. The demon's body was also grasped in his palm by some kind of force.

"No, you can't do this! You can't kill me! Stop! Stop! If I die, you won't have any more power. Can we control this body together?!"

"Die."

"Impossible! I am the one who..."

The inner demon's roar abruptly ceased, and as the lightsaber pierced through, his body began to turn transparent.

In his final moments before dissipating, a look of fear finally appeared on his face. "So I was never really..."

Inside the sealed room outside, the chilling murderous aura suddenly dissipated, replaced by a warm and peaceful golden light.
