Chapter 2350 Face


    "Who? Greed?"


    The sealed demonic seed sensed Fang Heng''s strength and seemed to gradually awaken from its slumber.


    "You are..."


    Fang Heng attempted to sense the demonic seed''s strength, trying to identify the entity.


    "Oh, right, I remember now. It''s ''Jealousy,'' that despicable fellow. I''m going to take him down!"


    "Boom!!!"


    The power of Pride erupted once again!


    Fang Heng realized it was Pride!


    He had heard that each initial demonic seed had different strengths.


    Pride was the strongest among them.


    Simrly, Pride''s power was the most difficult for an artifact to withstand.


    Earlier, Fang Heng had discussed a lot with Gu Qingzhu, Luo Xu, and others.


    Based on the information he had gathered, there were two ways in which demonic seeds were passed down.


    The most primitive and ancient method was the first: after the previous demonic seedpletely died, the new one would be born 6 hours, 6 minutes, and 6 seconds after the demise, known as Eternal Reincarnation.


    During the lifetime of the newly born demonic seed, its power would not awaken unless it received some kind of intervention.


    In most cases, demonic seeds were found and subjected to some ritual by inheritors of demons and fanatical believers before their power fully awakened within them.


    There were also rare cases of automatic awakening, during which the demonic seed itself did not retain any memories rted to previous demonic seeds.


    Afterward, the demonic seed''s power would continuously gestate and strengthen within them, bing an independent entity.


    Fang Heng believed he was in this state.


    As for the second method, Fang Heng deduced it was the way Xia Xi attempted on Gu Qingzhu: finding the inheritor of the demonic seed in advance and controlling them. After extracting and dividing arge portion of the demonic seed''s power, it was stored in multiple individual artifacts that could amodate the energy of the demonic seed.


    The demonic seed would subtly influence the artifacts and gradually enhance their adaptability to itself.


    For example, the phantom shadow rat was one of Sloth''s artifacts. Through this ritual, the artifacts could control the demonic seed''s power.


    However, this method had a significant drawback.


    Sometimes, the artifact could easily be influenced by the original will of the demonic seed,pletely controlled. This could lead to a partial revival of memories from the original demonic seed and various other demonic seeds, causing the artifact to lose itself entirely.


    The method to determine if the artifact had lost itself was straightforward.


    While the artifactrgely disyed the personality of the corresponding demonic seed, it did not perceive itself as a demonic seed, did not identify as such, andcked the ancient memories of the demonic seed.


    However, the demonic seed before him imed to be Pride, indicating it was likelypletely under the control of Pride''s power.


    "Hey, Pride, did you need my help?"


    "Get lost! I don''t need your help. I can handle this myself!"


    Pride roared angrily.


    "Well, okay," Fang Heng didn''t argue much, just said, "I''m just curious, with your strength, how did you end up in this state?"


    "Jealousy betrayed me."


    Pride''s tone carried some resentment.


    "Boom!!"


    The seal burst open again from deep within! In moments, it shattered through dozens ofyers!


    "Fang Heng..."


    Tippy watched the thick ck fog elerating from the ground, a hint of fear in her eyes.


    "It''s okay, you retreat to safety, protect yourselves, and leave the rest to me!"


    Tippy gritted her teeth, immediately withdrawing to a corner of the cave, channeling the power of the sacred tree branches to protect herself and two Soul tribe guards in the center.


    Fang Heng released his mental strength again, attempting tomunicate with Pride, "Alright, let me put it this way. I also have a big grudge against Jealousy. When you deal with Jealousy, can you take me along?"


    "Haha! No need!"


    Prideughed arrogantly, pushing its power to the limit, breaking through the seal forcibly, regardless of the cost!


    "Bang! Bang! Bang!!"


    The seal rapidly burstyer byyer until the entire seal waspletely destroyed, filling the cave with dense, ink-like ck fog.


    Tippy and the two guards huddled in a corner of the cave, barely maintaining visibility within half a meter, relying on the power of the sacred tree branches.


    In a thick fog, a figure d in ck emerged from the constantly rolling, fog-emitting ground. n/?/vel/b//jn dot c//om


    The figure was skeletal, its entire form shrouded in ck mist, revealing no discernible features.


    Free from confinement, the Pride artifact stood still, breathing in the outside air, slowly turning its gaze toward Tippy and the tree spirit tribe.


    Fang Heng stepped in front of Tippy, blocking Pride''s view. "Pride, these are my friends. They led me here. The ones who truly sealed you are still outside, blocking the entrance."


    Fang Heng gestured towards the cave''s exit.


    Pride didn''t reply but shifted its gaze away from Tippy and herpanions.


    Whoosh!


    Pride raised its hand.


    The dense ck fog around surged outward!


    ...


    Outside the sealed cave, including Senzo, Tam Sangga, and other tree spirit tribe elders, waited.


    Huh?


    Senzo suddenly noticed something, emitting a soft exmation.


    Ahead, the stone door sealedyer byyer with roots began to tremble faintly, shing with diverse lights.


    The three elders simultaneously looked towards the entrance.


    What''s going on?


    It seemed like the seal was being impacted from within.


    "No worries," Senzo nodded. "Looks like Tippy is using the power of the holy weapon, the sacred tree branch, to suppress the door. There''s no need to panic; they won''t break through."


    Everyone nodded in agreement, stepping aside.


    However, instead of gradually calming down as the elders had expected, the shaking of the seal at the entrance elerated, its flickering speed increasing, giving the unsettling impression that it was about to explode.


    "Something''s not right."


    Tam Sangga''s expression changed slightly, speaking in a deep voice, "Come help!"


    The three elders immediately stepped forward, jointly controlling the seal to stabilize it.


    Under theirbined suppression, the magic array momentarily stabilized.


    But wait!


    Why was the force of the seal''s impact growing?


    It seemed increasingly difficult to suppress!


    Cold sweat broke out on Tam Sangga''s forehead.


    "Chi!!!"


    Suddenly, a crack tore open in the seal.


    Immediately, dense ck fog poured out of the crack.


    This was bad!


    How did the seal''s magic array break?


    Could it be?!


    The three elders exchanged shocked looks, eyes filled with disbelief.


    Could it be that Fang Heng and the others trapped inside the sealed cave have really broken the demonic seed''s seal?
