Complete Mastery

From Yu Xian's perspective, the Eye-Snatching Demon's death was exceptionally dazzling. As for why Yu Xian didn't care about collateral damage affecting the surrounding worlds, it was because the moment he decided to kill the Eye-Snatching Demon, those worlds had already been doomed to turn to ash. Every cell of the Eye-Snatching Demon contained power capable of destroying worlds. The moment his body disintegrated, it was likely akin to an atomic bomb detonating—an endless surge of berserk energy unleashed in an instant, sweeping across everything around it. Originally, Yu Xian's attack had only destroyed the worlds in a straight line behind the world where the Eye-Snatching Demon resided, whereas the Eye-Snatching Demon's blast engulfed every world in a full three hundred and sixty degrees with zero blind spots. The nearest worlds were the first to suffer the energy shockwave. Like wooden shacks caught in storms and tsunamis, they shattered into pieces in an instant, their remnants swept along to crash into other worlds. Not a single world across the entire branch was spared. Theoretically, the aftermath of the Eye-Snatching Demon's death would last for more than half a cosmic annihilation epoch. His energy would continuously affect countless worlds, and perhaps some lucky souls might even adapt to his energy, thereby embarking on the path of the extraordinary. However, Yu Xian obviously lacked the patience to wait that long. Once the first wave of explosions passed, he emerged from the Zhen Realm. The power of Grand Dao Myriad Phenomena erupted from his body, layers of golden light rapidly penetrating every corner of this branch, binding the Eye-Snatching Demon's energy right where it was. If the Eye-Snatching Demon were still alive, Yu Xian certainly wouldn't have been able to restrain his power. Yet now that the Eye-Snatching Demon was thoroughly dead, his energy had become masterless, making it not at all difficult to constrain. Next, he produced a gourd, uncapped it, and shouted, "Tom Riddle Cruise, get in here!" The next moment, the gourd began guzzling down the Eye-Snatching Demon's energy like a violent gale. Its speed was unimaginably fast. Energy that would have taken at least half a cosmic annihilation epoch to gather was completely sucked dry by the gourd in a mere half hour. Yu Xian waited until all the energy was drained before popping the stopper back in, gently shaking the gourd. This gourd was called the [Gourd of Legacy]. As long as one called out the deceased's name, the gourd would suck their "corpse" inside and ultimately refine it into a "Legacy Pill." Anyone who consumed a Legacy Pill could inherit that person's legacy. However, the gourd had a drawback: it didn't care whether the consumer survived. For example, if a user possessed only Star Rank strength and was lucky enough to use the Gourd of Legacy to refine Feng Laixian's corpse into a Legacy Pill, and then proceeded to swallow it, that user would be blown apart and killed instantly by Feng Laixian's overwhelming power. Yu Xian had conducted an experiment right after acquiring this gourd. He had refined the corpse of a Dragon-rank monster into a Legacy Pill and fed it to a stray dog; the stray dog had exploded on the spot, its head blown to smithereens. After that incident, he knew this thing was very dangerous and not to be used recklessly without absolute certainty. Luckily, he now had the Zhen Realm. As long as he didn't pull off a super death wish in the Zhen Realm—like using a transcendence-level item to paralyze the realm—he basically couldn't die. Dangerous as the Legacy Pill was, consuming it within the Zhen Realm was still exceptionally safe. Even if he truly couldn't handle it, he could always expel the power. Returning to the dark room in the Zhen Realm, Yu Xian opened the gourd and poured out a plump, round pill. He opened his mouth, about to swallow it, but stopped at the very last moment. Looking at the pill in his hand and remembering that this thing was converted from the Eye-Snatching Demon's entire energy, he felt an inexplicable wave of disgust. Sometimes, until the moment actually arrived, one didn't realize how much they minded. Take Qian Qianyi between the Ming and Qing dynasties. At least at the moment he agreed to Liu Rushi, perhaps, just perhaps, with a one-in-ten-thousand chance, he truly had prepared to drown himself for his country. But when push came to shove, he chickened out, in the end leaving behind the excuse that "the water is too cold" and earning eternal infamy. Right at this moment, Yu Xian discovered that he simply couldn't stomach eating this thing. Whether others would care or not, he didn't know; all he knew was that it repulsed him. However, he soon thought of a compromise. With a thought, the Dimwitted Puppy was summoned in an instant. Back then, he had tested the Gourd of Legacy with a dog, and now continuing the experiment with the immortal Dimwitted Puppy was just fitting. "Come on, open wide!" Yu Xian commanded the summoned Dimwitted Puppy directly. Once the puppy opened its mouth, he tossed the Legacy Pill inside, letting it swallow it down. As soon as the puppy swallowed the Legacy Pill, changes immediately took place in its body. One eyeball after another rapidly materialized around it, and its expression turned sinister. "Hahahahaha! Want to kill me, Tom? It won't be that easy!" the Dimwitted Puppy sneered. Yet immediately afterward, he caught sight of Yu Xian, and his expression instantly froze. Meanwhile, a look of wonder appeared on Yu Xian's face; he had thought the Eye-Snatching Demon was completely dead, never expecting that even the Gourd of Legacy hadn't finished him off cleanly. "Who are you? What did you... do to me?" The Eye-Snatching Demon glared at Yu Xian and immediately barked. Yu Xian squatted down, rubbing his chin as he muttered to himself, "I see. Mister Monster's heritage really is bizarre enough." At present, the Dimwitted Puppy was in a very interesting state. The abilities in Mister Monster's heritage were indeed weird. For example, one of them was the Spiritual Spark Possession Technique. This ability could even affect a spiritual spark, replacing someone imperceptibly. And right now, the puppy was being affected by Mister Monster's Information Overwrite Technique. Being naturally dimwitted, its system had been directly reflashed by Mister Monster's heritage, allowing the Eye-Snatching Demon to revive. However, this Eye-Snatching Demon was an imperfect existence. After all, Yu Xian and the puppy were currently in the Zhen Realm, where the Eye-Snatching Demon's spiritual spark couldn't enter. Thus, the present Eye-Snatching Demon was merely an Eye-Snatching Demon on a data level. Only by integrating his spiritual spark would he count as truly resurrected. Yu Xian reached out his hand. Naturally, the Eye-Snatching Demon wanted to dodge, but his body was still the Dimwitted Puppy's body, over which Yu Xian possessed one hundred percent control. Because of this, Yu Xian could directly check the Dimwitted Puppy's status and understand the basic principle behind the Eye-Snatching Demon's resurrection. In truth, the Eye-Snatching Demon had been lucky. If Yu Xian had swallowed the Legacy Pill himself, Mister Monster's abilities wouldn't have been able to affect him at all; in that case, the Information Overwrite Technique would have been utterly useless, leaving the Eye-Snatching Demon without the slightest chance of revival. Now, Yu Xian pressed his hand against the Dimwitted Puppy's head. The power of Grand Dao Myriad Phenomena seeped inside, and he promptly dragged the Eye-Snatching Demon out from within the puppy's body. At this moment, the Eye-Snatching Demon looked like a soul body composed of a layer of energy. He stared at Yu Xian in shock and terror, only now realizing that his life was already in Yu Xian's grasp. "What... what does My Lord wish to do to me?" The Eye-Snatching Demon felt bitter hatred in his heart, yet in the end he had no choice but to bow his head. At this point, a book appeared in Yu Xian's hand. He chuckled, "Nothing much. Just get in here!" With those words, the Book of the Primordial God sucked the Eye-Snatching Demon in like a whirlwind. An image of the Eye-Snatching Demon appeared on a certain page of the book, with a line of small print in the upper right corner detailing his life story. With that, all of the Eye-Snatching Demon's abilities had still fallen into Yu Xian's hands. [Book of the Primordial God, Enhancement +10: By the will of the Divine Lord, create the Book of the Primordial God capable of containing the myriad heavens and worlds, accommodating all and sealing all. Everything that enters the Book of the Primordial God shall be thoroughly dominated by the Divine Lord.]
