Chapter 294: Gaining Individual Thought?!
Upon slowly closing the distance between him and the two flesh without being caught, Leo, with a dangerous glint in his eyes, cast his soul scan toward the two...
Wanting to gleam information in order to prevent himself from falling under their unknown and unexpected skills.
[ Flesh Race (Upper Body): A unique race that was known for consuming the flesh of all beings. They have the unique ability to integrate the flesh and will of the beings they had consumed into their physique, creating a unique physique based on the flesh they had consumed.

[ Flesh Eater (Unique): Consume and integrate the flesh and will into one's physique. The higher the grade of the flesh consumed, the higher the overall strength of the being... However, in exchange, digesting the will and flesh of higher-ranking beings contains unspeakable risk and would take a longer time.
Activation: Passive! ]
...
Seeing this, Leo couldn't help but gasp in shock.
This was the first time he saw a unique skill!
Furthermore, it was an innate skill that could grow with the users realm, causing it to become useful even in the latter stage of cultivation!
Other than that, he also managed to understand the origin of the two and how they ended up fighting each other!
They were actually fighting for ownership of the body!
One of them was the main body, which is the Upper Flesh, while the other one was the Lower Flesh, who gained individuality due to the main body being unable to digest the flesh it consumed in time, causing the lingering will within the flesh to mutate...
Gaining opportunity and developing its individuality in the process!
"This unique innate skill potential was extremely high, but the negative effects it held were simply... Twisted.
"Nevertheless, the scariest one is the curse skill; if my guess was correct, then it was the reason why the flesh lower body became sentient."
Leo thought as he secretly retracted his rare restraint skill.
In an instant, the atmosphere around him changes in a subtle way, becoming more heavy and ominous as the imperceptible aura of bad luck, decay, and other negative statuses spreads around at a hurried speed...
Generating an invisible wave of foreboding that slowly filled the large cave.
With their spread, the surface of the pitch-black water beneath with an unknown depth began to freeze visibly, followed by the bones within the mountain starting to root at a slow speed.
Although it was too slow, the molecular structure of the bones became more fragile as the aura of decay invaded them, increasing the probability of an accident occurring if someone with considerable weight stepped on them.
Ding!
As for the two battling flesh within the foot of the bone mountain, although they had felt the subtle changes within the atmosphere, they were too focused on eliminating each other to become occupied and distracted by other things.
With their instinct only sending a weak distress signal to their consciousness, they concluded that the subtle changes within the atmosphere weren't enough to pose a great danger to their beings.
A precise intuition considering that Leo only had just retracted his rare restraint skill.
"Keke~ With your greatly injured being, you would only last for a while before I could successfully consume your flesh.
"Don't worry, I wouldn't repeat your mistake; I will immediately digest your will and obsession before planning to consume the Great Demon corpse above... I will bring the main body toward its peak potential!"
Releasing an unnatural laugh toward the dim place, the abomination who gained sentient evaded the hurling limbs of the main body...
Speaking in a mocking tone afterward, upon noticing the strength and speed of the main body opposite it started to show signs of weakness.
Although it couldn't normally compare to the main body in terms of realm and physical capabilities, however, due to the surprise attack it did earlier, the main body suffered grievous injuries, causing its strength to greatly decrease in the process.
Unfortunately, a peak-late stage of the core formation realm wasn't easy to kill, or else the lower flesh might have already replaced the main body and was starting to devour the heavenly corpse above the mountain.
Snort- Experience new tales on empire
"As a being born due to the lingering will and obsession, you speak too much."
With eyes filled with resentment and anxiousness, the main body of the flesh bombarded the abomination opposite it with its long limbs, generating a crisp whipping sound within the atmosphere as the gray bones beneath them turned into powder upon being heavily struck by its countless limbs.
In an instant, a white mist made from the dust of countless bones filled the atmosphere, hiding the chaotic battle within.
"This... What did I do to become this unlucky?!"
As the main body was thinking of a way to kill its damn lower flesh without suffering great injuries, the bones beneath it suddenly released a creaking sound, caving before suddenly disintegrating due to his weight!
Caught off guard, the flesh body tilted toward the side, causing its hurling limbs to miss its target by inches as wounds with varying degrees appeared all over its being due to the lower body's counterattack.
"Just wait! I will hunt you sooner or later."
Understanding that the chances of it killing the lower body were infinitely small due to the injuries and bad luck it was experiencing...
The main body hurriedly dashed toward the direction of the corpse of the Great Demon above the mountain without hesitation.
If it could consume and assimilate the flesh of the great corpse into its being before the lower body could. Killing the latter would become as easy as squeezing an ant.
The only thing that caused him to hesitate earlier was due to the heavy pressure hindering them.
Furthermore, he couldn't be distracted in the midst of assimilation with the flesh, or else it might generate another individuality!
"I could only risk it!"
Given the pressure that was increasing every time they approached the corpse of the Demon Lord. Compared to it, it would naturally take more time for its Lower Body to reach the top of the bone mountain.
He would use this opportunity to hurriedly assimilate the flesh and hope for the best!
