After the black-robed man broke through to the peak of the Primordial realm, he wasn't initially excited. He suspected he had been manipulated. How could a strong entity like the Void Lord be devoured by him? Yet, he couldn't think of any reason why someone as powerful as the Void Lord would bother scheming against him. After all, with such strength, what couldn't the Void Lord achieve in this world?
Moreover, the Void Lord had indeed paid a price—a significant one. It was a wisp of his soul and the authority over the void! Losing these would surely weaken the Void Lord considerably, depleting his primordial energy. Would such a powerful being really pay such a high price just to scheme against him? Was it worth it?
It was akin to a wealthy man suddenly abandoning his fortune to plot against a beggar. It didn't make sense. Of course, that wasn't the main point. The key was that the black-robed man, who had devoured a fragment of the Void Lord's soul, gained some of the Void Lord's memory fragments. Among them was the Void Lord's plan to possess him. The memories indicated that the Void Lord's true form had encountered some issues, prompting the need for possession. The specifics weren't clear, but it seemed related to the rules of the Primordial Prison.
Additionally, in the Void Lord's memory fragments, the chosen targets for possession weren't limited to him. There was also his old acquaintance, Jiang Yifeng! The memories showed that the Void Lord had observed Jiang Yifeng for a long time, intending to possess him. However, he found that Jiang Yifeng wasn't quite compatible with the power of the void and the authority over the void. Ultimately, he chose the black-robed man because he had also cultivated the power of the void, making him a better fit.
Everything was logical and well-founded. Even the calmest black-robed man couldn't find any flaws. Moreover, he realized that the Void Lord had no benefit in scheming against him. This led the black-robed man to conclude that it was all a coincidence. He had coincidentally devoured a fragment of the Void Lord's soul and gained a sliver of authority over the void. He had no choice but to admit that the Void Lord's plan was flawless, and his own knowledge was limited, restricting his imagination. He was unaware of the Void Lord's deeper plans, stronger enemies, and the need to cultivate certain individuals. These were all aspects the Void Lord needed to calculate. For this, the Void Lord was willing to sacrifice some strength.
Unaware of all this, the black-robed man naturally couldn't make the connection. No matter how calm he was, he couldn't predict what he didn't understand. Ah, one can never reasonably analyze things beyond their knowledge! Forcibly analyzing would only lead astray. It was precisely this cognitive error that made the black-robed man believe he was simply lucky. Now, having reached the peak of the Primordial realm, he once again felt the urge to devour Jiang Yifeng. After all, his soul power remained a weakness. Whose soul power was more compatible with his? Who was more suitable for devouring to enhance himself? Naturally, it was Jiang Yifeng.
Thus, he arrived at the Land of Primordial Beginning and found Jiang Yifeng. How did he know Jiang Yifeng's location? Of course, it was from the memory fragments of the Void Lord. After all, the Void Lord had observed Jiang Yifeng, intending to "possess" him. How could the memory fragments not contain his location? This was actually a point of suspicion. But as the black-robed man had analyzed before, the Void Lord had no reason to scheme against him. The motives and plans for possession were well thought out. The black-robed man couldn't even consider this a point of suspicion. Ultimately, he attributed it to being the "chosen one." If he wanted to devour Jiang Yifeng, he had the coordinates. If he wasn't the chosen one, who was?
Back to the present. At this moment, the black-robed man stared at Jiang Yifeng from a distance, a smile playing on his lips. His luck was too good. Even someone as rational as him couldn't help but grin. The advantage was back on his side. He didn't believe Jiang Yifeng could escape from him a second time. Last time, Jiang Yifeng turned the tables because his own soul had issues. The soul power he had devoured from other reincarnation worlds had rebelled. But now, his soul no longer contained as much of Jiang Yifeng's soul power. Moreover, his strength had grown, and he had a sliver of authority over the void. Even if the soul power of "Jiang Yifeng" from other reincarnation worlds caused trouble again, it wouldn't impact him much.
This time, he couldn't imagine how Jiang Yifeng could turn the tables. Today, he was determined to devour Jiang Yifeng's soul power. Seeing the sinister smile on the black-robed man's face, Jiang Yifeng frowned. He didn't know how the opponent had suddenly become so strong, but he wasn't overly panicked. He still had the "Limit Break" talent. As long as he activated this talent, although he couldn't directly reach the Dominator realm from the early Primordial realm, he could temporarily reach the peak of the Primordial realm. At the peak of the Primordial realm, Jiang Yifeng believed he could contend with the black-robed man, even kill him. He didn't believe the black-robed man had reached the Dominator realm.
Indeed, Jiang Yifeng's plan was to eliminate the black-robed man. After all, the opponent was a constant threat. Especially now, with the black-robed man's sudden surge in strength, Jiang Yifeng felt the threat had grown. If he didn't eliminate him soon, what if the black-robed man's strength surged again? His own crisis would only intensify!
Of course, Jiang Yifeng's plan hinged on the black-robed man not reaching the Dominator realm for it to succeed. However, if the black-robed man had indeed reached the Dominator realm, then whether he used his "Limit Break" talent sooner or later made no difference. It would only lead to death!
At this moment, the black-robed man was unaware of Jiang Yifeng's thoughts. He remained confident but not overly arrogant. He didn't waste time with villainous monologues. After a glance at Jiang Yifeng, he struck directly. The black-robed man swung his palm, and Jiang Yifeng immediately spat blood, barely clinging to life. Yet, he resisted the urge to use his "Limit Break" talent. It wasn't the right time.
He could roughly guess the black-robed man's intent. The opponent likely wanted to devour his soul, given past events. Since that was the case, the opponent wouldn't kill him outright. When the black-robed man approached closely, ready to devour, that would be the moment to activate the "Limit Break" talent, instantly enhancing himself and delivering a fatal blow.
