Chapter 686: My Demon

eryone can't interfere with, I also need to win over some powerful people."After all, once Jian Yun is killed, even if Dan Daozi and the others can't do anything to me, what if they join forces to pre...Although her wrist was crushed, the illusory Ginger Cloud smiled faintly: "I told you, I am you, and you are me. If you want to stop me, you have only one option: kill me!"

But by killing me, you kill yourself as well, scattering your soul and destroying your very being.

Jiang Yun looked at the other party. Despite the throbbing pain from his fractured wrist, a smile appeared on his face. "So that's how it is. I was wondering how to stop you, but now, I have a way."

As soon as the words left his lips, a raging inferno erupted on Jiang Yun's body!

The flames flowed along his body, spreading directly onto the illusory ginger cloud, completely enveloping both of them.

This flame is the life fire of Ginger Cloud!

And now, Jiang Yun, although he appears incredibly real, in actuality, only his soul resides within this illusory realm!

To stop that illusory self from continuing to kill, there is only one way: to kill him. And the best way to kill him is to first kill oneself.

Therefore, this fire is meant to burn Ginger Cloud's soul!

The soul is far more fragile than the physical body, so the pain of burning a soul, even someone as strong as Jiang Yun, is unbearable.

This kind of pain far surpassed the pain he had felt when he was burned by fire, exceeding all the suffering he had ever experienced. It caused his body to tremble uncontrollably.

But he bit his teeth so tightly, using all his strength to grasp the phantom ginger clouds, allowing his body to be burned little by little under the burning of the life fire, scattering into ashes on the ground.

The illusory ginger clouds, which were also disappearing little by little, didn't seem to feel this pain at all. Instead, a mocking expression appeared on their face as they looked at the ginger cloud and said, "You burn yourself up just to protect these illusory phantoms. Is it worth it"

Just at this moment, all the people who were running around in panic saw the flames rising from Jiang Yun's body.

This caused them all to stop in their tracks, astonishment once again etched on their faces. All eyes were now fixed on Jiang Yun.

"Cloud Baby, what are you doing!"

Jiang Wanli's aged body trembled slightly, and he walked towards Jiang Yun step by step.

The face, etched with wrinkles, was even more contorted with anxiety and anguish.

"Jiangyun, whatever you're doing, stop it immediately!"

The ancient voice grew sharp, and it strode forward with the same large steps, heading toward Jiang Yun.

"Little brother, although I don't know what you're trying to do, as your senior brother, I can't just stand by and watch you make a fool of yourself!"

Despite his pale face, Dongfang Bo showed no fear, even a smile appeared on his face as he walked towards Jiang Yun.

"You and I have already paid our respects to Heaven and Earth, and to our ancestors. If you were to die, I couldn't live alone either, my husband. Let me accompany you!"

Xueqing appeared in the hut at some point, the covering on her head already removed, revealing her stunning face as she walked towards Jiang Yun.

The scarlet wedding gown under the reflection of blood and firelight stood out strikingly.

Those blue eyes held nothing but the figure of Jiang Yun!

Si Tu Jing, Xuan Yuan Xing, Jiang Yue Rou, Jiang Lei... At this moment, everyone abandoned their escape, forgetting their fear, and moved towards Jiang Yun unanimously.

"See Did you see that"

Looking at those eyes, brimming with a myriad of emotions, and seeing those figures approaching him, Jiang Yun suddenly burst into laughter. He roared out to the illusory self before him.

"Worth it!"

In a roar, the flames on Jiang Yun's body surged and swelled again, like waves surging, instantly spreading outwards.

Flames engulfed the wooden house, covering everyone in it, engulfing the entire Ginger Village, and consuming this entire illusion.

As the flames swept over everything, all fell into stillness, frozen in place.

But those people enveloped in flames, and all that surrounded them, remained unharmed under the raging inferno.

It's as if they and Jiang Yun were in two completely different worlds.

But at this very moment, Ginger Cloud's body had already been burned to ash.

Even his appearance, under the relentless burning of the flames of fate, gradually grew old.

From youth to middle age, and from middle age to old age!

But, looking at the grandfather, master, senior brother, Xueqing, and the people from Jiang Village all right in front of him, a gentleness appeared in his eyes, and a serenity on his face.

"So what if one is forever lost in an illusion True and false, real and unreal, who can truly tell the difference between what is real and what is not!"

"Whether it's real or an illusion, I believe this is true, they are real!"

"If I cannot attain enlightenment, so be it! I might as well just not cultivate the Dao!"

"My cultivation, is merely for protection, to safeguard those I care about. This is the path of Jiang Yun, this is me!"

Even if it means my soul flies and my body perishes, vanishing from this world, I would willingly accept it, savoring it with delight!

With the murmuring words from Jiang Yun's mouth, a blue light suddenly burst forth from his dantian, gradually expanding to completely envelop his entire body.

This blue light carried a coolness that not only instantly extinguished the raging fire of life but also dispelled the pain within Jiang Yun's body.

Even, his body that had already been burned half away, slowly began to recover!

At the same time, in reality, Jiang Yun's body was also covered by blue light, illuminating the surrounding seawater.

"Wow, it seems like he's about to leave the illusion!"

At this sight, Hai Changsheng couldn't help but let out a surprised exclamation, which also allowed Hai Yixue beside him to secretly breathe a sigh of relief.

However, Hai Changsheng immediately followed up and said: “But to completely defeat the demon of one’s heart is not so easy. The demon’s methods are not just illusions!”

"Isn't it over yet" Hai Yuxue couldn't help but feel nervous again.

A cold light flashed in Hai Changsheng's eyes as he said, "It's not that simple. When a heart demon invades, I almost couldn't make it back then!"

Just as Hailin finished speaking, in the illusion, the virtual self before Jiang Yun's eyes finally showed a look of panic.

Even his whole body contorted violently in this panic, his mouth opened frantically and he shouted, "Jiang Yun, I'm not you, I'm not you!"

"I am your grandfather, I am your master, I am your kin, I am the only one you cling to!"

In his yelling, his features actually began to change rapidly.

Sometimes he resembled Jiang Wanli, sometimes he looked like Gu Bulao, and at times he even transformed into Dongfang Bo. In the end, he even became identical to Xue Qing.

"I am the very thing you are clinging to. If you were to kill me, you would be destroying your own obsession, destroying everything you've chosen to protect!"

And right now, the faces of those closest to Jiang Yun, those he cared about most, were all contorted in rage.

"See! They are your heart demons. Kill them, and you can achieve the Dao spirit!"

However, facing this ever-changing self before his eyes, Ginger Cloud's face gradually regained its composure as he said, "Your methods, are they merely creating illusions"

"If that were the case, I'd be truly disappointed, my inner demons!"
