The black cloud slowly rolled to form a black hole that could swallow everything. Even the light between heaven and earth was sucked up by it.

The terrifying devouring power began to spread outward, and Lin Bai clearly felt that the icy cold air between heaven and earth quickly drained away and disappeared into the depths of the black hole.

Immediately afterwards, every plant, tree, mountain and stone in this space began to appear. Huge cracks began to appear in this space, revealing the void hidden behind it.

"What a powerful devouring power!"

Lin Bai couldn't help but feel shocked. He already felt that the devouring power of the Lord of the Nine Nether Demon Palace was extremely powerful, at least several times stronger than him.

"Is this the strength of the devouring power? Or is it because he is a warrior with great supernatural powers, which makes the devouring power become more powerful?"

Lin Bai had some doubts in his heart.

Devouring power is an extremely special kind of existence. There is no way to practice or hone it. According to Lin Bai's research, it seems that it will not become stronger as the cultivation level increases.

It's just that as the cultivation strength becomes stronger and stronger, the devouring power that can be controlled becomes more and more.

"wrong!"

Lin Bai suddenly frowned and thought calmly in his heart: "According to the information I learned, the devouring power is a fixed amount and cannot be increased at will!"

"There are only ninety-nine devouring powers between heaven and earth, scattered throughout the heavens and the world."

"The devouring powers can merge with each other and devour each other."

"And the devouring power of the Lord of the Nine Nether Demon Palace is obviously not like the only devouring power. Could it be that... he has already devoured other members of his clan?"

After this thought appeared in his heart, Lin Bai's vigilance towards the Lord of the Nine Nether Demon Palace was instantly raised again.

And this time, he was even more wary of the Lord of the Nine Nether Demon Palace, and even took two steps back with a hostile look on his face.

The power of devouring can merge with each other, devour each other, and seize each other.

In other words... the master of the Nine Nether Demon Palace can seize and devour Lin Bai's devouring power.

The Tuntian clan is each other's companions, fellow tribesmen, and compatriots, but they are also enemies!

After noticing Lin Bai's strangeness, the master of the Nine Nether Demon Palace slowly restrained his devouring power and turned into a black cloud again, covering his body.

"You seem to know something?"

The master of the Nine Nether Demon Palace asked with interest.

Lin Bai hesitated for a moment. He did not intend to reveal that he knew that the power of devouring could devour each other, but before he could answer, the master of the Nine Nether Demon Palace continued:

"The power of devouring can be compatible with each other, devouring each other, and merging with each other."

"You know about this, right?"

Lin Bai did not expect that the master of the Nine Nether Demon Palace would tell him the news directly.

He thought that the master of the Nine Nether Demon Palace was willing to win over him because he wanted to gain the devouring power in his body, so he was so wary of him.

But at this moment, the master of the Nine Nether Demon Palace took the initiative to speak out, which made Lin Bai a little confused and at the same time relaxed his vigilance.

"Why did you tell me?" Lin Bai asked.

It was not difficult for the Palace Master of the Nine Nether Demon Palace to tell from Lin Bai's tone that Lin Bai not only knew about this matter, but was also frightened by the devouring power he displayed.

He then said: "This is no longer a secret among the Tiantian Clan. It is even well known to high-level warriors in all the worlds."

"It doesn't hurt to tell you."

The Palace Master of the Nine Nether Demon Palace paused and suddenly smiled: "I know why you let down your guard just now and suddenly showed fear. Do you feel that my devouring power doesn't feel like a share?"

"Think I have devoured many of my fellow tribesmen?"

Lin Bai asked vigilantly: "Isn't it true? I remember that the power of devouring cannot be cultivated or improved. It can only become stronger by devouring the same race?"

"You have such a powerful devouring power, and you have obviously obtained more than one share of it!"

The Palace Master of the Nine Nether Demon Palace nodded and said: "Yes, I do have more than one share of the devouring power. To be precise... I got five copies in total."

"Counting my own share, I already have six parts of the devouring power!"

"But...I didn't devour my tribe!"

Lin Bai frowned. How did he get it if he didn't devour the clan members?

The Palace Master of the Nine Nether Demon Palace said: "Plunder, devour, fuse, these words are a bit extreme, but there are other words."

"For example... inheritance!"

inherit? ...Lin Bai was stunned for a moment.

The Palace Master of the Nine Nether Demon Palace continued: "Lin Bai, I am the same as you, but I am not the same."

"What we have in common is that... we were all born in humble circumstances, we were both hunted by the Titans, and we all had our families destroyed because of the Titans."

"But the difference between me and you is... at the moment when I was about to die, I received help from the strong people in the clan."

"You haven't been to the Holy Land, but I have been!"

"I inherited the devouring power of several seniors of the Sky-Devouring Clan in the Holy Land, so my devouring power is so powerful!"

"I have never forced them, and I have never thought about devouring their own kind. It's just because those seniors know that once they die, the devouring power they possess will immediately dissipate between heaven and earth, and then come back again."

"The moment they were on the verge of death, he was willing to let me devour their flesh and blood and inherit their devouring power!"

"This is not plunder, but inheritance!"

After hearing the explanation of the Lord of the Nine Nether Demon Palace, Lin Bai believed part of it, but the vigilance in his heart still did not dissipate.

After all, Lin Bai had never been to the holy land he mentioned, and he didn't know if there was such a place.

"Holy land? Where is it?"

Lin Bai asked.

The Lord of the Nine Nether Demon Palace paused and said, "After the matter in the demon world is dealt with, I will naturally take you back to the holy land."

"But before I take you back, I will not tell you the specific location of the holy land."

"You are too weak. If I tell you the location of the holy land now, if something happens to you in the future and you are caught by the giants, exposing the specific location of the holy land, it will undoubtedly be a disaster for the people in the holy land!"

Lin Bai thought that what the Lord of the Nine Nether Demon Palace said made sense, so he listened to his explanation.

At the same time, Lin Bai felt a little confident.

"Since Master has arranged for him to take care of me in the demon world, no matter what agreement he has with Master, at least he will not threaten my safety for the time being."

"If he really has the guts to devour me, I'm afraid Master will not let him go!"

Lin Bai thought over and over again in his heart.

The Lord of the Nine Nether Demon Palace reminded: "It's a good thing that you are wary of your own kind, because not all of your own kind uphold the concept of 'inheritance'."

"There are also some of your own kind who like to kill, devour, and plunder the devouring power of their own kind!"

"We call them... rebels!"

"I once... almost died at the hands of a rebel!"

Lin Bai's pupils shrank violently. The Lord of the Nine Nether Demon Palace actually had such a past? Almost died at the hands of his own kind? (End of this chapter)
