Chapter 19

"Big brother, you succeeded in breaking through!" The little succubus, seeing Er Dongsheng (Bal) stand up, asked with a joyful face.

"So tall, Lulu can't even reach big brother anymore!" The little succubus, who had run over excitedly, suddenly pouted. Er Dongsheng looked down and realized that the little one was now only as tall as his thigh, and she could no longer jump up to hug his neck like before!

"Is this another growth spurt for me?"

His current height was just over 1.8 meters, while the little succubus was less than 1 meter tall, small and delicate like a porcelain doll.

"Yep, just one last step left." He squatted down, gently picked up the little succubus, thought for a moment, and then lifted her up with both hands, placing her steadily on his right shoulder.

"Hehehe" The little one was extremely excited, swaying left and right on his shoulder, hugging his neck and laughing nonstop. The little one was small, and Er Dongsheng, with his broad and muscular build, had a wide shoulder that allowed the little girl to sit steadily.

After playing with the little one for a while and seeing her happy again, Er Dongsheng decided to start the final step after his breakthrough.

"Abyssal Will, come forth!"

"Bang"

"Zzzz"

An overwhelming aura instantly burst forth from his body. The ferocity of martial arts, the ethereal nature of Daoism, the chaotic and evil nature of the abyssal demon, and the bloodthirsty and brutal qualities all surged out, intertwining to form a unique aura that spread throughout the entire cave.

From a distance, the little one watched with a dazed look as the now overwhelmingly powerful Er Dongsheng stood there, his figure like a demon, a terrifying and god-like presence. Her heart suddenly started pounding.

"Ah!" Her face flushed, she pinched herself hard to stop her wild thoughts and began to watch Er Dongsheng's final breakthrough.

At that moment, above the cave, the sky suddenly darkened, and a violent abyssal aura began to gather. Dark clouds formed in large patches.

Suddenly, lightning bolts struck, thundering through the heavens, illuminating the small forest like daylight. Nearby animals, whether abyssal creatures or ordinary beings, all cowered in fear on the ground.

"Lightning in clear skies? It's not the abyssal rainy season, how is this possible?" In the far west of the forest, a massive abyssal snake with eyes as large as lanterns exclaimed in surprise.

"Lightning, lightning, how, how, could it be?" In the east of the forest, a group of several hundred people all looked up in shock at the lightning in the sky. The leader, an exceptionally beautiful woman, was now pale-faced.

"Lightning in clear skies, does this mean an abyssal creature has broken through to become a first-level demon? But why is the scale of the lightning so large? Could it be that a great demon is being born?"

...

The outside world was already in turmoil due to the actions of the abyss, but our protagonist remained quietly in the cave, preparing for the final moment.

Suddenly,

A terrifying will descended upon the small cave.

Er Dongsheng's heart tightened, and large drops of sweat rolled down his face. This feeling was like facing his master for the first time, deep and vast, but even more immense and profound, with no discernible boundaries.

His body involuntarily assumed a defensive posture. Although Er Dongsheng understood that he was as weak as an ant before this great will, the firm will of a martial artist compelled him not to give up until the very end.

The will of the abyss was indeed unfathomable, possessing power greater than that of Earth's Heavenly Dao. At this moment, Er Dongsheng already regretted rashly accepting the blessing of the abyssal will!

"Boom"

The abyss paid no attention to Er Dongsheng's actions, or perhaps in the eyes of these heavenly consciousnesses, they were all mere ants, not worth caring about.

"Boom, boom, boom, boom" It seemed as if the sound of air bursting was constantly heard in his ears. The abyssal aura around the cave began to condense at a visible speed, becoming denser and denser.

Suddenly, the abyssal will, carrying the condensed abyssal aura, shot towards Er Dongsheng's face.

"Whoosh"

Before Er Dongsheng could react, it entered his brain, breaking through all resistance and heading towards his sea of consciousness.

"Oh no!"

Er Dongsheng was horrified. The sixth sense of a martial artist kept warning him that he must not let this abyssal will invade his sea of consciousness. No matter how other demons dealt with it, if he accepted this will, he would be forever bound to the abyssal Heavenly Dao, serving as a slave to the Heavenly Dao, never able to transcend.

"What to do, what to do, what to do?"

"System, yes, abyssal system, give me a solution quickly!"

"Calculating, please wait..."

"Quick, quick!"

"Even faster!"

"Ah..."

Er Dongsheng tried hard to gather his mental strength to resist the invading abyssal will while frantically urging the abyssal system.

"Faster, I'm done for, and you won't be any better!"

...

Time passed second by second. Er Dongsheng struggled in his sea of consciousness against the overwhelming abyssal will. The ferocious abyssal will paid no attention to the obstacles in front of it, breaking through one line of defense after another, and the core of his sea of consciousness was almost completely invaded.

"No, no more..." His soul grew weaker, and his firm martial will was about to break.

Er Dongsheng was about to give up...

"Big brother, what's wrong, what's wrong with you?" Suddenly, a voice came.

The little girl, seeing Er Dongsheng's suddenly distorted face, panicked and wanted to help, but was pinned to the ground by the abyssal will. Despite this, she did not give up and slowly crawled towards Er Dongsheng. Her resistance to the abyssal will seemed to enrage it even more, and a greater pressure was exerted on the little girl.

As she crawled, the pressure caused her small arms and legs to rub against the rough ground, leaving bloody marks along her path.

The little girl did not frown at all, but continued to move resolutely. In her heart, even if she died, she wanted to be with her big brother.

At that moment, Er Dongsheng, in his sea of consciousness, was stunned. He stared at the little girl moving slowly, recalling the scenes of their time together.

...

"Big guy, aren't you going to eat Lulu?"

"Big guy, Lulu is hungry! Can you give Lulu something to eat?"

"Big guy, did mommy and daddy abandon Lulu?"

...

"Big guy, you're so nice!"

"Big brother, big brother?"

"Yep, big brother is closer than mommy, Lulu has a big brother now!"

"Lulu isn't abandoned!"

...

"Big brother, big brother, you eat too, Lulu is full!"

"Big brother, after you break through, you have to make Lulu some good food!"

...

Every word, every scene of their time together, formed a ray of light, illuminating Er Dongsheng's heart, which had almost given up. He never realized how important he was to this little girl, nor did he realize how hard it was for him to let her go.

If the heavens have feelings, they too will grow old; the righteous path of humanity is one of change and struggle!

Even if we are demons, despised by countless planes, the deepest part of our souls remains inviolable, because... we have feelings.

We are demons, but we are also lonely, and we... thirst for family.

"Lulu, stay there, big brother is fine. I'll make you a big meal soon, and we'll have a feast!" Turning his head, Er Dongsheng managed to smile at the little girl who was still trying to crawl over, a smile that, though ugly, made the little succubus, who had been in despair, suddenly happy.

"Okay, Lulu will wait for big brother!" Although still on the ground, her small face covered in blood and dirt, the little girl smiled happily.

Because she believed in him, in that incredibly powerful big brother.

"Yes, I still have family, how can I give up, how can I betray her trust!"

"I have never fought alone!"

"Come on, abyssal will, it's not over yet, I'll finish you off! My little Lulu is waiting for me to make dinner!"

Fight, this battle can only end with your death, and I will live, because...

I have feelings, and you... have none.

This is your sorrow, and my relief...
