After circling the six-horned iron devil one time, Xiang Shaoyun found that the devil had no reaction whatsoever to his approach. Inwardly, he thought proudly, Looks like I have successfully cultivated the Nether Shadow Evanescence.
But right as that thought surfaced in his mind, the six-horned iron devil suddenly opened its eyes. Xiang Shaoyun was greatly shocked, his heart thumping wildly. After all, this powerful Devil Emperor was still capable of easily killing him.
Just as Xiang Shaoyun was about to release his Nether Soul Domain, the six-horned iron devil shut its eyes again and continued sleeping. Xiang Shaoyun heaved a breath of relief.
Alright, you may go to the afterlife now, thought Xiang Shaoyun as he walked toward the flank of the devil.
His gaze landed on a certain protrusion on the devil's neck. The skin there was three times thicker than the other parts of the devil's body. That was the vital spot of the devil. So long as that protrusion was destroyed, the devil would die. A chakram appeared in Xiang Shaoyun's hand as he struck the protrusion with it. The incomparably sharp chakram easily sliced the protrusion apart.
”Roar!”
The six-horned iron devil roared in pain and started rolling about on the ground. A ma.s.sive amount of devilish energy started rippling out of its body. This was its final struggle before death, and the first thing Xiang Shaoyun did was pull a wide distance between him and the devil.
Even with the vigorous vitality this devil had, with the destruction of its vital spot, it did not even last long before it was fully dead. In theory, this vital spot was the same as the heart of a human. Without a heart, how could a human remain alive?
Just like that, Xiang Shaoyun earned 120,000 contribution points. If other Kings found out Xiang Shaoyun could so easily earn that many contribution points, they would probably be mad with envy. After harvesting the six horns and some other important parts of the devil's body, Xiang Shaoyun proceeded to slice a piece of meat off the devil and started cooking it.
As for the remaining part of the corpse, it became the food for the ghostrunes. However, Money was not partaking in the feast as he hated the aura of the Devil Domain. Thus, he had been staying in the astral cosmos sea most of the time. Xiang Shaoyun attributed that to laziness.
Yes, Money was a demon and was not suited to the environment here, but he should still come out to temper himself. But he instead stayed in the astral cosmos sea to enjoy the nourishment of the thin nine-colored fog. It almost seemed like he was addicted to the fog.
Xiang Shaoyun found that just relying on the tiny bit of nine-colored fog, Money had also reached the late fourth-stage Demon King realm. It wouldn't be long before he could enter the fifth-stage.
At that realization, Xiang Shaoyun was filled with even more expectation toward the nine-colored fog. Unfortunately, he was unable to form much of the nine-colored fog in his current environment. He would only be able to continue forming more after leaving the Devil Domain.
After the meal, Xiang Shaoyun did not leave immediately. Rather, he gathered a large number of devilish energy stones in the area. He also found some top-quality enigma stones. Only then did he leave satisfied.
He arrived at the territory of a different Devil Emperor and a.s.sa.s.sinated the Devil Emperor with the same method. He had also figured out that with his current bloodline power, he would only be able to maintain the Nether Shadow Evanescence for half an hour. That wasn't a long time, but it was long enough to do a lot of things.
Xiang Shaoyun believed that so long as he continued working hard, the time limit would only increase. And now, he finally started his return journey. He planned to keep killing on his way back. By the time he was done with the return journey, he should have enough contribution points in hand.
