I Secretly Develop Myself In The Demon World - Chapter 796

Chapter 796: Chapter 416 Identity Exposed_2

“The Demon Abyss has not yet descended; no one can do anything to you now, but when the Demon Abyss comes, I will make sure I see for myself your mark being erased within it,” said the old woman.

Even knowing that today she couldn’t escape her fate, the old woman didn’t beg for mercy. Instead, she looked at Su Nan with scorn, as if she had already seen him being bombarded and killed by numerous demonic beasts in succession.

This was normal; demonic beasts never begged for mercy, after all, they could resurrect, and dying once or twice didn’t mean much to them.

But the old woman would die without knowing that being killed by Su Nan meant there was no chance of revival.

“The Demon Abyss is coming?” Su Nan was startled; this was the first time he had heard this.

But now was not the time to ask about this.

He said to the old woman, “Don’t worry, you won’t see that day.”

Without wasting any more words, he launched an attack, initiating the fight.

A moment later, the old woman was gravely wounded and lost the ability to resist.

Grabbing the old woman, Su Nan applied the God and Demon Sky Devour technique, and the swirling Demonic Qi, like little snakes, desperately burrowed into the old woman’s body, rapidly eroding every corner of her body.

“No! This is wrong! This, this isn’t the power of the Sky Demon Devouring God Sutra!”

“This, this is Talent, this is the innate talent that only predestined demon gods possess!”

The old woman was obviously not an ordinary demon beast, with extraordinary insight, as she recognized that Su Nan was using Talent, not the ability of the Sky Demon Devouring God Sutra.

But then, the old woman thought of something else and her expression changed dramatically, “You are that individual from yesterday who became a predestined demonic beast!”

“I can’t believe that lucky individual was you!”

“How do you know someone became a predestined demonic beast yesterday?” Hearing this, it was Su Nan’s turn to be shaken.

The fact that he had become a predestined demonic beast should, in theory, only be known to him, and now the old woman had spoken of the event that happened yesterday, which seemed incredible to Su Nan.

The old woman did not answer Su Nan’s question, instead she said enviously, “Being able to acquire innate demon Qi, I must say you’re very lucky, but it’s a pity that it’s not something you can control.”

“You are doomed, even if the Demon Abyss hasn’t descended, those demon gods won’t let you go, and they will come for you soon. Just wait, your death will be miserable.”

The old woman laughed, her expression full of schadenfreude.

Su Nan looked unwell.

If the old woman hadn’t been emperor-level with strong Divine Soul, he would have found it difficult to forcibly read her memory, otherwise, he would definitely have tried to take it by force to see how she knew he had become a predestined demonic beast.

The news of him becoming a predestined demon god had apparently leaked out, and now even the old woman, suppressed within the formation, knew about it.

It was conceivable that quite a few demonic beasts were now aware of the emergence of a predestined demon god, they just didn’t know who it was.

Moreover, from what the old woman implied, there were even terrifying existences of demon gods in the Demon Abyss who also wanted to obtain the innate demon Qi.

“This is troublesome!”

In an instant, Su Nan realized the gravity of the situation.

Saint-level was beyond his ability to confront, not to mention god-level; what means such existences had at their disposal, no one knew.

If there really were demon gods who wanted his innate demon Qi, then he was indeed in danger.

His mind raced, swiftly pondering a solution.

After a brief thought, he remembered his Art of Fate, and he let out a slight sigh of relief.

“With the Art of Fate, it seems there isn’t much to be afraid of.”

“Now, not only do people not know that I’ve become a predestined demonic beast, but all those who knew I was cultivating the Sky Demon Devouring God Sutra are completely dead.”

As long as the secrecy was maintained, no one could find out that he had become a predestined demonic beast.

Of course, he couldn’t be careless. If those powerful demonic beasts possessed some unknown methods to track him down, that would be troublesome.

Unable to get useful information from the old woman, Su Nan no longer hesitated and ended her life directly.

[Congratulations, for using God and Demon Sky Devour to devour an emperor-level demon, you have gained 500 points of demon race luck.]

Five hundred points of demon race luck, that’s 300 points more than a king-class demonic beast.

It’s just a pity that after hunting down two king-class demonic beasts just now, his total Qi Luck had reached 2,900 points, surpassing that of the old woman.

Even if he killed the old woman as the role of Wang Nan, the task of Luck Child did not grant him any Qi Luck.

Moreover, because both demon hunting tasks for today had already been completed, the old woman’s death did not contribute any additional Demon Power to him.

However, rescuing her from the Formation earlier still netted him 60 points of Demon Power, bringing his Usable Demon Power to exactly 1400 points!

He was only one hundred points away from enhancing the Life Wheel Scripture.

“An Emperor-level demon beast, five hundred points of Qi Luck isn’t bad.”

With these five hundred points added, Wang Nan’s total Qi Luck broke through the three thousand mark, reaching three thousand four hundred points.

And because he had just spent two hundred points of Available Fortune to execute the Art of Fate Tribulation in hunting down two demon beasts, he still had one thousand seven hundred points left.

Of course, out of this one thousand seven hundred points of fortune, he still had to deduct one hundred points to execute the Art of Fate Tribulation again, to thoroughly resolve the potential threat of the old woman who knew his identity.

Without time to think further, a hundred points of Qi Luck were spent, and ensuring the Cause and Effect Line on his body disappeared, he finally breathed a sigh of relief.

He continued to observe the changes to the Sky Demon Devouring God Sutra.

Having devoured an Emperor-level demon beast, the recently enhanced Sky Demon Devouring God Sutra once again expanded.

A moment later, sensing the changes to the Sky Demon Devouring God Sutra, Su Nan’s eyes shone with Golden Light.

“One-thirtieth!”

“The progress of the Sky Demon Devouring God Sutra has increased by approximately one-thirtieth!”

“Originally, it required the devouring of three Saint-Level demon beasts to advance further; now, only twenty-nine more Emperor-level demon beasts are needed.”

“This means that devouring ten Emperor-level demon beasts would equate to the effect of one Saint-Level beast.”

Surprised and delighted, Su Nan.

Three Saint-Level demon beasts were hard to come by, and even if found, killing them would not be feasible, but finding thirty Emperor-level demon beasts was not impossible.

If Dongchen State did not have them, he could search in other States; out of the Twelve States, he refused to believe he couldn’t find thirty Emperor-level beasts!

“The efficiency of the God and Demon Sky Devour transformation doesn’t seem as low as I had thought.”

Su Nan didn’t know how much of a gap there was between Emperor and Saint-Level.

If the difference between King and Emperor-Level was anything to go by, not even twenty Emperor-level demon beasts could match one at the Saint Level.

But now, ten Emperor-level beasts could bring about the effect of one Saint-Level beast, which was a very cost-effective trade.

And all of this was thanks to the Talent of the God and Demon Sky Devour.

The devouring efficiency of the God and Demon Sky Devour was even higher than that of the Sky Demon Devouring God Sutra!

The Sky Demon Devouring God Sutra absorbed the Divine Soul of the demon beasts, while the God and Demon Sky Devour consumed everything about the demon beasts!

The two were incomparable.

“It looks like I’ll be busy for a while; the task of nurturing the Jianmu must be pushed back further.”

An avatar of a Saint-Level demonic beast was too tempting for Su Nan.

He immediately decided that his focus for the near future would be on finding Emperor-level demon beasts.

To hunt down thirty Emperor-level beasts was clearly impossible for his True Body alone; only by having both his avatar and True Body act together could it be possible.

He resolved that after this trip to Tianjue Province was over, he would send his avatar to other States, to those places where the Demon Catastrophe had erupted.

After turning the old woman’s remaining body to ashes with a burst of fire, Su Nan let Luo Yu out.

“Do you know what’s going on with the descent of the Demon Abyss?” Su Nan took the words of the old woman very seriously and had to find out what was happening.

Luo Yu clearly understood this issue and said without hesitation, “The Demon Abyss exists within Chaos, far from this world, and that is why it is so difficult for us demon beasts to leave the Demon Abyss and enter this world.”

“However, the Demon Abyss is not stationary; it moves on a certain trajectory. This movement is very slow, but every ten thousand years or so, it aligns with this world once, when the distance between the two becomes very close.”

“At that time, it would be very easy for the demon beasts in the Demon Abyss to leave and enter this world without any constraints; this period is known as the descent of the Demon Abyss.”

Having said this, Luo Yu paused then added, “The last descent of the Demon Abyss was ten thousand years ago.”

“If the last descent of the Demon Abyss was ten thousand years ago, doesn’t that mean the time for the next descent is fast approaching?” Su Nan frowned and said in a grave tone.

Luo Yu nodded, “It should be very soon. With the Heavenly and Earthly vitality of this world now reviving, it may even accelerate this process.”
