In the chaotic currents of the void, the man bit his lips.
Twisting. Pecking kisses.
Shen Jie’s waist was tightly embraced by Zong Lin. His completely transformed body was tough and sturdy, so there was no need to worry about causing harm even with a strong embrace.
Instead, the energy emanating from Shen Jie’s body, even though it was being tightly controlled, was gradually devouring the ability on Zong Lin’s body.
Shen Jie wanted to step back, but Zong Lin pulled him back, deepening the kiss even further.
He kissed Shen Jie’s cold and soft lips, delving into the lips and teeth, plundering the mouth bit by bit, conquering every inch.
The fierce force made Shen Jie’s waist arch backward, firmly held by his hand.
Zong Lin, usually cautious with his lover, had never been so wild.
Unrestrained desire and inexpressible unease robbed him of his restraint. He urgently wanted to feel Shen Jie’s presence, to know if he still remained as a human, or if he loved him as an aliens.
Shen Jie had always wished for Zong Lin to treat him more recklessly. Now, finally, Zong Lin was reckless. He felt like he was floating in a raging sea.
This body, originally human, was now just a part of his massive transformed form. It had no heartbeat and had lost its warmth.
Of course, he could try to simulate it again based on experience, but this time he had rushed over in haste and didn’t have time to simulate.
But he also felt that Zong Lin had kissed him back to life, giving him a heartbeat and warmth.
No, he thought, perhaps it was because of the close proximity, Zong Lin’s heartbeat and fiery warmth were transmitted into his body.
Warmth.
He recalled a long, long time ago when they first met. The spear in the other’s hand pierced through his body, and he was thrown into the void in an embrace.
The destructive energy instinctively attacked the other’s body, wildly pounding on the their back like thorny vines, but the other formed a cage with their body, holding him tightly.
It had been a long, long time since any living being dared to come so close to him.
The other’s heartbeat and warmth entered his body.
He remembered feeling the long-lost warmth just like today.
“Mmm…”
Shen Jie tilted his head back, enduring the man’s stormy kisses, lifting his hand, fingers entwining in Zong Lin’s pale hair.
His knuckles slowly tightened, and eventually, he held the back of Zong Lin’s head, meeting him halfway.
The two were already too familiar with each other, usually one restrained while the other took the lead, which matched well. Now both indulged freely, entwining fiercely, giving each other sensations as if entering a new world.
The chaotic void raged on.
The two kissed passionately, reluctant to part.
“Hey… you two.” Suddenly, a faint, feeble voice came from beside them.
Shen An lay on the ground, his face pale, looking up at the two figures kissing not far away.

Moreover, from the looks of it, his brother’s position seemed to favor the more passive side.
No!!! He couldn’t believe it!!!

Even if Zong Lin was chosen by his brother as a partner… he doesn’t believe it!
It had to be this little devil using some means to bewitch his brother. After all, in his impression, “Soul” ability users were always adept at such things.
Shen An thought, struggling to get up from the ground, to separate the two. But his body was so weak, almost crumbling, the friction on the ground making him almost transparent to the naked eye.
Zong Lin, of course, felt the murderous gaze of the young alien. But he held Shen Jie in his arms, the taste of his lover’s lips delightful enough to make one ignore everything around them.
It was only after a long time that the two finally parted, a silver thread trailing between their lips.
Shen Jie’s lips were kissed until they glistened with moisture. Although his eyes, belonging to an alien, still glowed with an intimidating flame, his demeanor didn’t feel as strange and frightening as it did at the beginning.
He pushed against Zong Lin’s chest, saying, “Lin Ge, let me go.”
Zong Lin didn’t release him.
He had a feeling that if he let go now, Shen Jie might disappear before his eyes.
“Brother!”
The slightly raised voice of the young man nearby sounded again.
Shen Jie turned his head to glance at Shen An.
With a raise of his hand, the boy on the ground was enveloped in shadows, rolled up into a ball and brought before them.
Shen An stared fixedly at Zong Lin, who was tightly holding his brother.
No, wait, they’ve already finished kissing, why is this human still holding his brother?
Shen Jie looked down at Shen An on the ground.
From close up, the boy’s face bore some resemblance to his own. This could be attributed to their human bloodline connection, but the similarity in their elemental powers couldn’t be fabricated.
Just now, he had consumed half of the other’s soul and life force. Some of the emotions and thoughts of the other party also flowed into his body.
This was the side effect of “devouring.”
Every living being he consumed, their emotions and thoughts would gather before their death, to be consumed by him together.
Most of the emotions contained within the living beings’ bodies were despair, fear, resentment, and unwillingness. He had grown accustomed to it, but the more he “ate,” the more inevitably he would be tainted by the hostility emanating from the living beings. The shell of the “Form of Annihilation” would also be condensed more perfectly.
But strangely, this time, what he felt from Shen An was not fear, but joy.
Could someone feel joy even when being devoured by him?
Shen Jie couldn’t understand.
Shen An looked up at Shen Jie, his brother’s gaze seeming so unfamiliar, his purple eyes devoid of warmth.
His tolerance for the man next to him was much greater than for him.
He bit his lip and asked again, “Brother, have you really forgotten about me?”
Shen Jie didn’t answer.
It was Zong Lin who spoke in a deep voice, “You are Shen An.”
He remembered that Shen Jie once had a younger brother.
In order to raise this younger brother, Shen Jie had risked joining the team outside the city for cleanup. Later, Shen An died unexpectedly in the battle of the “Nest Egg”.
He had seen Shen An’s photo in Shen Jie’s file. The seven or eight-year-old boy, well-raised by Shen Jie, had rosy lips, white teeth, a sunny smile on his face, and was very handsome. He truly looked like a pure little angel.
Now, that photo was slowly merging with the sinister young alien in front of him.
Shen An asked, “Has my brother mentioned me to you?”
Zong Lin replied, “Yes.”
He furrowed his brows slightly.
Shen An, who was supposed to be dead, had returned and become the source of chaos in the world. And his beloved was actually a Rank One alien.
What exactly had happened between them, Zong Lin still didn’t know.
However, Zong Lin suddenly remembered that Shen An had casually destroyed an entire J base before.
This couldn’t be explained away as mere caprice. He was no longer human, nor was he the obedient child in the photo.
Aliens had no humanity; they regarded human lives as toys.
But what about Shen Jie?
He believed that Shen Jie had been restrained in his actions since they met, and was willing, as he had just said, to become a human named “Shen Jie”.
However, if Shen Jie had casually killed people like Shen An before being with him…
Zong Lin couldn’t help but tighten his grip on Shen Jie’s hand.
The expression on Shen An’s face visibly brightened, and he suddenly felt that the human in front of him was slightly less unpleasant.
“Brother, consume me,” he said. “You should have sensed it by now. Once you consume me, you will achieve ‘perfection’, reaching the pinnacle of power.”
Just as a Rank Two ability holder devouring another Rank Two in the same category had the chance to ascend. Similarly, a Rank One consuming another Rank One could seize the opportunity to break through Rank One.
And then glimpsed that which transcended all powers, the true apex.
—Rank Zero.
No, more accurately, it should be called, a deity!
In this world, Rank One possessed uniqueness. It was almost impossible for two Rank Ones of the same category to appear simultaneously.
But they were different! They were the prodigies born of heaven and earth, only they could do it, as long as they joined forces, everything in this world that all living beings could not accomplish, could be achieved—
Shen Jie’s purple eyes stared at the petite teenager.
Devour it.
Devour it.
Devour it.
The desire was so strong.
As long as he devoured it, he could reach the endpoint of destruction.
From the beginning, he was attracted by this.
Where there was life, there was death. Everything had its destined end from the beginning, just like the river of time, there would be a day when it would dry up. This was what the law dictates.
It was also what many people call “destiny.”
And he was the one responsible for executing destiny.
The birth of the ‘Form of Annihilation’ actually signified that this world had already reached its end.
However…
Shen Jie thought about the interesting things he had experienced over the past seven years, the various people he had encountered.
There were good people. There were bad people. There were adorable people. There were despicable people.
Not everyone deserved to live, but also not everyone had to die.
He thought about Zong Lin.
He thought about the colorful world they lived in.
This was the world that Zong Lin wanted to protect.
If this world eventually turned into the barren wasteland like the world he once lived in. He thought. His lover probably wouldn’t want that.
He can’t… he can’t devour.
He tightly closed his eyes and then muttered softly, “Lin Ge, help me deal with him.”
Zong Lin suddenly realized something and shouted, “Xiao Jie?”
He subconsciously wanted to grab Shen Jie tightly, but the body in his arms suddenly turned into black flames, then merged into the huge black wings.
The black wings stirred up a hurricane, blending into the void.
Zong Lin’s pupils contracted and he said, “Xiao Jie!”
He unfolded his bone wings and tried to chase after, but the void was endless, and there was no trace of Shen Jie.

Hmmm, is Shen Jie going to hunt and consume the alien cores to upgrade the artifact (?) the system gave him to use it for controlling or removing his own abilities? What a cliffhanger!
Reminds me of LOTM (Lord of the Mysteries) with Sequences from 9 to 1 and final sequence as 0. The more powerful the existence, the closer it is to God (also have a monster form). The lesser the sequence number, the more insane one becomes. (Note: they aren’t spoilers) Love the dynamic between ZL & SJ though, if it were anyone else, either they would have killed, broken off their relationship or worse, helped them only to abandon in the end.
That what I have been thinking since ages ago! If you finished LOTM, there are more similarities that will be spoilery. Personally I convinced this novel took some inspiration from it. LOTM is very popular in China. I love LOTM and I am very happy to find a book inspired by it even if only a bit of the power concept
Ahhh! Cliffhanger!
