《Heaven's Devourer》Chapter 1402: New Identity
Advertisement
The black flames rose high into the sky, burning in a threateningly intense fashion!
This was the Immolate ability of the Heaven Devouring Titanic Beast! Wu Yu had not used it in a long time now. To be safe, he had to kill off his opponent thoroughly before the two ghostly kings arrived. He would have only one chance!
At other times, the two ghostly kings would be bodyguarding him, and he would not have such a chance.
This time, he used Immolate strongly, and his autonomous realm power immediately skyrocketed! He had already reached a new peak, a strength that he had never reached before!
He had not gone all-out in a long time!
Such incredible power was unsustainable!
Besides, Wu Yu did not only use Immolate, but also changed before he attacked. And he did not change with the Lawful Embodiment of Heaven and Earth, but into the Heaven Devouring Titanic Beast!
BOOM!
A black killing machine appeared, sheathed in black scales and with two knife-like wings. It had a spear-like tail, and the black flames only made its crimson eyes even more pronounced. A stark contrast to the White-Eyed Ghostly Lord, and the tension immediately rose to a climax!
"What the devil are you!?" The White-Eyed Ghostly Lord started. Wu Yu's transformation had taken him by surprise, but he was not afraid. This was his territory, and the two ghostly kings were protecting him. Moreover, he did not fear any immortal king or ghostly king.
His answer was a barrage of attacks from Wu Yu!
He had already used Lawful Embodiment of Heaven and Earth, and both his Realm of the Physical Body and Realm of the Immortal Spirit powers had reached an explosive peak. Immolate had also burned huge amounts of energy!
"Golden Furnaces of Heaven and Earth!"
Within the vast hall, his crimson eyes turned golden, and two enormous furnaces of heaven and earth appeared, engulfing his opponent. The White-Eyed Ghostly Lord had only been startled slightly, before Wu Yu's attacks overwhelmed him!
The power of the Eyes of Fire and Gold surpassed his wildest dreams!
"Seems like you lured me here! Impertinent scum, do you think I'm invalid?!"
He was truly fearless. He need only shout, and the two ghostly kings would very quickly arrive. But he did not. Instead, he raised the Lasting Blood Banner with both hands. He gloated with a smile, "Little worm, let me show you the power of heavenly rule!"
The Lasting Blood Banner whipped up a gust that almost tore Wu Yu's Golden Furnaces of Heaven and Earth apart. It was an intemperate force that could even eclipse the fires of the Golden Furnaces of Heaven and Earth. And this was Wu Yu's post-Immolate power!

"Time Warp Immortal Design!"
Even though he had a great void immortal treasure, Wu Yu was not afraid. Although the Floating Dreams Pagoda's Time Warp Immortal Design had a limited effect on great void immortal treasures, it was very effective against the White-Eyed Ghostly Lord's body. The scrambled time dulled his control over the unfamiliar heavenly rule power, marring its execution. The Golden Furnaces of Heaven and Earth countered and exploded forth!
Rumble!
The entire hall had been ravaged! The sound boomed out across the entire castle. The incredible shockwave charred a perimeter of 100 li around them. Catching the brunt of the Golden Furnaces of Heaven and Earth's attack, the White-Eyed Ghostly Lord was blasted back, bleeding all over. If not for the fact that he wrapped the Lasting Blood Banner around himself at the last moment, he would already be dead!
"You!"
The Time Warp Immortal Design was still in effect. After the Golden Furnaces of Heaven and Earth blasted forth, Wu Yu had already leaped forward quick as lightning, the Floating Dreams Sword in hand!
"Spirit Chaser Art!"
He had been using the Spirit Chaser Art a lot recently, so he was very familiar with it. After Immolate, even Wu Yu's Spirit Chaser Art had grown frightfully strong. Before the White-Eyed Ghostly Lord had a chance to react, his immortal spirit was dealt another devastating blow. His mind went blank. Only now, faced with the murderous intent in Wu Yu's eyes, he felt a tinge of real fear!
"Ghostly kings!" In his disorientation, he managed to shout for help. No matter how muddle-headed he was, he still laughed loudly. "No matter how well you hide, no matter who you are, once the ghostly kings arrive, they'll tear you to pieces!"
He was still laughing!
Wu Yu laughed back coldly. He increased the pace.
"Violent Art!"
With the Violent Art, his strength again reached a new height, as did his speed. He used it to execute Blink Slayer!
This increase in speed and strength was beyond the White-Eyed Ghostly Lord's calculations!
"Die! White-Eyed Ghostly Lord!"
Wu Yu appeared behind his opponent with Fulgurating Shadows. After a simple flip, his Floating Dreams Sword pierced the ghostly spirit of the White-Eyed Ghostly Lord.
"Hngh...." In his last moments, the White-Eyed Ghostly Lord's face stiffened, still clouded with incomprehension. As his ghostly spirit faded, he was doomed.
"From today onwards, I am you." Wu Yu whispered close to his ear.
"You! You...." His consciousness faded in a haze of pain, frustration, and shock. But he was like a drowning man. The more he struggled in desperation, the deeper he sank. He knew he was finished, and frustrated tears fell. They only fell into the whirlpool of death that took him.

Wu Yu had delivered a clean kill by Immolating most of his strength. He devoured him to replenish the energy and then disappeared with Fulgurating Shadows. the White-Eyed Ghostly Lord's call meant that the two ghostly kings would soon arrive!
Just as Wu Yu disappeared, the two ghostly kings arrived. Seeing the aftermath of the battle, their expressions turned to alarm.
"Trouble!"
"Where's the young master?!"
The two looked at each other. They knew that things were serious, but the immortal design was still under their control. They hurriedly strengthened it, ensuring that no one could leave.
"That's not right, there's no one here stronger than the young master!"
They were confused.
Just as they were panicking, the White-Eyed Ghostly Lord walked in from outside, and roared with laughter at their consternation. "Haha, were you two shocked out of your pleasure by me?"
"Young master!" Seeing the White-Eyed Ghostly Lord unharmed, they heaved sighs of relief. The Amethyst Soul Ghostly King came forward and asked, "What happened just now?"
The White-Eyed Ghostly Lord said, "There was a guy who hid his powers well. He wanted to lure me out here and kill me. But I evaded it and killed him. It got a little hairy. Haha...."
"I see." The two ghostly kings were still a little unsettled. But seeing the White-Eyed Ghostly Lord unharmed, they regained their composure and said, "Well, we had better follow you. After all, this Yellow Ancient City is pretty big. Perhaps some talents are still hidden."
What they did not know was that it was no longer their young master standing before them, but Wu Yu. He had devoured him very quickly this time, as a result of his hunger from using Immolate. He had yet to process his memories, consuming the body first to assume his form. After throwing smoke at the two ghostly kings, he now gradually started to learn about the White-Eyed Ghostly Lord. With his black hair and white eyes, and the Lasting Blood Banner in hand exuding blood qi, he could not be told apart from the White-Eyed Ghostly Lord.
These two ghostly kings could not tell at all. They did not believe that anyone could transform into the White-Eyed Ghostly Lord and even blood bond with the great void immortal treasure within such a short amount of time. It was unthinkable, and no one had an imagination flightful enough to think that a skill like Replicate existed.
Wu Yu now assumed the guise of the Chakravarti Ghostly King's son, the prince of the Astral Hell!
He was slowly absorbing the White-Eyed Ghostly Lord's memories, learning more about the Astral Hell and the Lasting Blood Banner. There were virtually no gaps in his guise now.
The Lasting Blood Banner had been handed down for a long time. The pole was a long spear, on which a flag had been hung. Of course, it could also be used as a spear. When unfurled, the blood qi flowed out over everything, complementing the Lasting Blood heavenly rule. Just with the White-Eyed Ghostly Lord's abilities, Wu Yu was already stronger than before. He now had a great void immortal treasure in hand, even though it was an evil weapon that was built on the backs of millions of vengeful spirits. But for now, he had no choice. He could only move as this identity dictated.
"Young Master, there are still more than 40,000 people to go. Go on!" The 10,000 Bones Ghostly King laughed.
How could Wu Yu possibly remain here and continue?
He chuckled. "I won't."
"Eh?" The two ghostly kings looked at Wu Yu, bewildered. They recalled how much the young master had kicked up a fuss, insisting he would do it. Now he had suddenly stopped. And he had been hysterically enjoying himself as well.
"Is the young master scared? No need, we're here as well," the Amethyst Soul Ghostly King said.
Wu Yu shook his head, speaking in the tone of the White-Eyed Ghostly Lord. "I suddenly recalled something. At first I thought the old man would be beside himself with worry, and have no mood to deal with me. He would not care that I came to refine the Lasting Blood Banner. But there's another possibility. He already has a headache from his helplessness regarding the Chakravarti-raja Star's changes. To suddenly hear about what I'm up to, he might instead vent his anger on me. Seems like I might not have chosen the right time?"
The two ghostly kings looked at each other, and the Amethyst Soul Ghostly King smiled wryly. "Indeed, that is possible."
Wu Yu knew that they would be like this. They had never cared about the White-Eyed Ghostly Lord's decisions, because they could not control him. Their duty was to bodyguard him. They couldn't care less about the rest.
Besides, they were used to the White-Eyed Ghostly Lord's fickle and impulsive character.
"And what does the young master wish to do now?"
Wu Yu grinned. "Back to the residence to drink! The best wines!"
"Best wines and best women. Yeah!"
The two ghostly kings dispelled the immortal design and returned to the residence with Wu Yu. The ghostly immortals of the Yellow Ancient City had narrowly escaped a great calamity. They looked up at the sky, unable to recover their wits for a long while.
"When has the White-Eyed Ghostly Lord ever let anyone off...."
They were in disbelief.

Homecoming | A Chronicles of Ascension Story
When Jethen was captured by slavers, his childhood was torn from him and left shattered half a world away. When he finds himself back home decades later, by methods he does not fully understand, he finds that the life he has lived has changed him far more than he knew. In a home he no longer knows. Places and people at the same time familiar and foreign, he must decide - stay and help with his parent's business, or return to the land that remade him and the family he made there. --------- Homecoming started as just a short story to break an episode of writers block. It has since morphed well beyond that into a novel in it's own right, and may well end up with a sequel. The writing of Homecoming became a bit of a self induced challenge to improve my initial, first brush, writing quality. Each chapter was written raw, given a once over read and edit, and then posted. In this way I am forcing myself to write better from the start. I do hope you enjoy the story and will leave a comment or review, and if you see an issue, feel free to let me know as well. I know it is not nearly perfect, and it will get a full and proper edit once I am done. Never hurts to fix things along the way though. As an additional note. The story has undergone a structural rework and has been reposted in an updated structure and sequence of chapters. If you have read this story already, I invite you to do so again in this new structure.

This is not my first book (that honor belongs to The Flock by Chris Sauter- available on Amazon). This is hopefully going to become my second book, the first of a planned LITRPG trilogy. This is a labor of love, dedicated to my absolute obsession with the LITRPG genre that has held me in its grasp for over 3 years. There will be dark situations that perhaps only adults should read including: slavery, violence and the results of war. There will be no harems, little profanity, but possibly some triggers for people who don’t like torture, violence, and other dark stuff.
