Chapter 819: The Origin of the Torture Demon
If someone could stand outside of the Blood Path World now, gazing at the entire Blood Path World, they would only see a vast sea of blood.
This sea of blood seems to have formed a huge shield, completely covering the Blood Path World.
Finally, in the sea of blood, Jiang Yun’s figure slowly emerged.
And at this moment, his face was incredibly pale, as if all the blood in his body had been drained, his body staggered and sat down on the ground.
Using The Art of Blood Cleansing the Heavens was also a great burden for Jiang Yun.
However, after closing his eyes and resting for a moment, Jiang Yun opened his eyes again, gestured, and the unconscious Torture Demon appeared in front of him.
Now, Jiang Yun has very little time left.
The boundless sea of blood will soon completely dissipate, and the Seven Star Tao Seal will be restored to its original state. So, before that happens, he must leave this realm.
So, the first thing he needs to do now is to try to find out from the Torture Demon how to remove the mark on Liu Peng and Jin Cunyao’s souls.
When Jiang Yun’s divine sense tried to enter the Torture Demon’s soul, it was forcefully pushed out by a very powerful force.
This made Jiang Yun look a bit helpless.
In fact, he had already anticipated this outcome.
Since the Torture Demon can freely control the souls of others, it is impossible for him not to protect his own soul.
Trying to search his soul through soul-searching would be impossible unless one’s soul or strength surpasses his.
However, without searching his soul, one cannot know how to remove the mark.
Just when Jiang Yun was at a loss, he suddenly heard a humbly respectful voice, "Master, are you facing any troubles? Please share them with me, perhaps this old servant can help ease your worries!"
"Su Yang?"
Hearing the sound in his ears, Jiang Yun couldn’t help but be slightly surprised.
He naturally knew it was Su Yang’s voice, but he didn’t expect Su Yang to speak up at this moment.
Although Jiang Yun didn’t think Su Yang could help him solve his current confusion, Su Yang had existed in a soul body state for quite a long time, so he must know a lot more about souls than himself.
Perhaps he really had a way to remove the brand on Liu Peng and Jin Cunyao’s souls.
Thinking of this, Jiang Yun immediately summoned Su Yang, and looking at the face that still resembled Lei Ling’s, with a humble smile, Jiang Yun felt a little uncomfortable.
"I will teach you a simple Shape-shifting Art, so you can change your appearance!"
"Okay okay!"
Although Su Yang agreed verbally, he was not happy about it in his heart.
After all, Lei Ling’s appearance was handsome and heroic, much better than his own.
"Master, do you have any troubles?"
When Su Yang spoke again, Jiang Yun briefly talked about the Torture Demon and Soul Seal.
After listening, Su Yang frowned and seemed to be thinking hard. After a moment, he suddenly slapped his thigh and said, "Master, don’t say anything. This Torture Demon’s origin, this old servant really knows."
Upon hearing this, Jiang Yun’s expression instantly brightened, "Please, tell me!"
"This Torture Demon, if I’m not mistaken, he should be a member of the Soul Clan!"
"Soul Clan?"
Jiang Yun was slightly surprised, "There’s a group like the Soul Clan?"
Su Yang’s expression became serious, "Of course, in the vast Tao World, there are various races, and the Soul Clan is one of them!"
"However, the Soul Clan is not just souls, they are like us, they have bodies and souls. They are born with the ability to control the souls of others, that’s why they are called the Soul Clan!"
Jiang Yun nodded, realizing there are many things in the world he doesn’t know about.
Since the Desolate World tribe can exist without absorbing spirit energy or practicing magic, and focusing only on the Desolate Mark, it’s not surprising to have a Soul Clan born with the ability to control others’ souls.
The Torture Demon’s abilities are indeed very similar to those of the Soul Clan.
"Please continue!"
"The Soul Clan is naturally powerful because of their gifts, so they are always sought after by major powers for recruitment."
"The Torture Demon, probably because of this, was recruited as the Supreme Envoy by the people from the Dao San Palace."
Though Su Yang explained things clearly, Jiang Yun’s expression showed he was still puzzled, "How do you know so much about the Soul Clan? Have you ever met a member of the Soul Clan?"
Su Yang praised Jiang Yun, "You are truly wise, my master!"
"Before the old slave turned into a spirit, a person from the Soul Clan accidentally entered my world and we became good friends at first sight. In our conversation, he told me about the mark of the Soul Clan."
"Although he didn’t tell the old slave how to remove this mark, he mentioned that controlling the mark isn’t just about thinking it, but also requires special hand signs. So, as long as the Torture Demon remains unconscious, the mark won’t act up!"
"Really?" Jiang Yun looked at Su Yang skeptically.
Su Yang solemnly said, "As the master’s disciple, it’s like being my young master. The master’s senior brother is even more my master. I wouldn’t dare deceive the master about this matter."
Jiang Yun nodded, looked at the Torture Demon and said, "Even though this is a temporary solution, for now, it’s the best we can do. I will find a way to keep him unconscious forever."
"Alright, Su Yang, you’ve helped me a lot again this time. I have some other matters to attend to now, so you can go back first!"
However, Su Yang smiled even more and said, "Master, the Soul Clan is rare. If you could recruit him under your command, I would have another companion. Wouldn’t that be great?"
"Recruit?" Jiang Yun frowned and said, "I can’t make someone like him obedient."
"Leave it to me!" Su Yang smirked and said, "I have a way to make him obedient."
"You?"
Jiang Yun’s eyebrows furrowed tighter. To be honest, he didn’t really believe Su Yang could handle the Torture Demon.
After all, even though Su Yang now had a physical body, his strength was only at the late stage of the Sky Blessed Realm, while the Torture Demon was at the late stage of Daoxing, they were not on the same level at all.
Su Yang could tell that Jiang Yun was suspicious of him, and quickly patted his chest saying, "Master, this old servant will not risk his life, so please rest assured, I am fully confident!"
This statement made Jiang Yun slightly believe.
Because he knew Su Yang was extremely afraid of death, in the vast Shadow Spirit World, only he managed to survive, so if he wasn’t confident, he wouldn’t dare to take on such a big task.
Regarding the Soul Clan, besides curiosity, Jiang Yun was indeed envious of the Torture Demon’s ability to control others’ souls at will.
Unfortunately, that was a skill inherent to the Soul Clan from birth, even if he wanted to learn, he wouldn’t be able to.
But if he could have a Soul Clan as his subordinate, that wouldn’t be bad!
After thinking for a moment, Jiang Yun nodded and said, "I will hand him over to you. You can take action freely. But for safety reasons, I cannot unlock the seal inside him."
Jiang Yun casually took the storage device from Torture Demon and then threw Torture Demon to Su Yang.
"Don’t worry, don’t worry!" Su Yang assured, taking Torture Demon’s body back to Overcast.
Only then did he breathe a sigh of relief, looking at the unconscious Torture Demon, he kicked him hard and showed a triumphant smile, saying, "Haha, I certainly don’t have the ability to make him obedient, but someone will take care of him!"
"Now it’s better. In the future, this little troublemaker will not just order me around."
As he finished speaking, Su Yang’s expression instantly turned respectful and humble, bowing to the empty space, "Master, I’m grateful not to disappoint you!"
