Chapter 148 - Chapter 148: Chapter 112: Demon Beast Attack_2 (2/2)

“How can we fight if demonic qi restrains martial artists?”

Su Nan’s face instantly turned ugly. At this moment, he finally understood why the task of killing demon beasts was rated five stars.

[The demonic qi is running rampant in your body, you dare not hold back any longer and immediately use your Racial Talent Berserk Netherworld Body.] [The Power of Primordial Qi and Essence Energy are all added to the Power of your Divine Soul, causing your Divine Soul Strength to increase by six-fold!] [However, when you use your Divine Soul Power, you find that it has little effect on the demon beast, and instead, you are once again heavily injured by it.]

[You don’t know that demon beasts are a collective of evil energy, and their Divine Souls have been contaminated by it, making them highly resistant to Divine Soul-based attacks.]

“Even the power of the Divine Soul is useless?” Su Nan’s expression turned solemn.

Fortunately, he has foreknowledge now. If he didn’t know this information and faced a demon beast, he might not even know how he died.

[The demonic qi quickly eroded your bloodline. Continuing like this, the one who dies will surely be you. With no other options, you resorted using your other Racial Talent Heaven-Breaking Strike.]

[With the Heaven-Breaking Strike activated, your strength surged, and when the demon beast attacked you once more, you threw a punch.]

[Congratulations, this blow successfully injured the demon beast, but unfortunately, it did not kill it.]

[The demon beast’s face twisted as it savagely attacked you again, leaving you no choice but to take out the Feathershatter Demon Sword and fight a life or death battle against it.]

[Seeing the demonic sword in your hand, the demon beast not only was not afraid, but even got more excited. It looked at the sword with eyes filled with greed and desire.]

[The demon beast rushed towards you, attempting to take your demonic sword. You slashed out with your sword, and your already minimal bloodline power was instantly drained.]

[The Demon Sword erupted with glorious light, but as it fell, it did not have the same obvious effect as it did when you killed the demon last time.]

[The demon beast was not afraid of the demon sword’s attack!]

[You died!]

[Before dying, you realized that with your own strength alone, it was impossible to kill the demon beast. Perhaps you could seek help from other powers.]

“Is the damage from the demon sword not significant against demon beasts?” Su Nan’s face looked ugly, and after a brief contemplation, he understood what was happening.

The reason the demon sword dealt major damage to demon beasts and martial artists was because of the evil energy in it. However, demon beasts wielded evil energy themselves, so naturally, they weren’t afraid of the demon sword’s attack.

“I am completely restrained when faced against demon beasts.”

The power of the Divine Soul and the demon sword were his two biggest trump cards. If he faced other Xuan-level beings, he might not be able to kill them, but he could definitely injure them heavily.

But when facing demon beasts, he felt like punching cotton.

“With my strength alone, there is no hope of killing the demon beast. The foreknowledge suggests that I should seek help from other powers, but where?”

Su Nan frowned, racking his brain.

He still had one chance for foreknowledge, but if there was no conclusive method, continuing to use it would be pointless.

It would be better to just run away now.

“What other powers can I borrow?”

Su Nan looked at the final piece of information from the foreknowledge with a sense of helplessness.

If it were before, he might have sought help from Zhou Lingyin, but now he couldn’t.

His gaze quickly scanned the information given by foreknowledge. He didn’t have much time; each passing minute made him more endangered.

If he couldn’t think of a method when the foreknowledge cooldown ended, his only option would be to flee.

His thoughts raced.

Suddenly, he thought of something. His attention fell on a piece of foreknowledge, and his eyes lit up.

“It seems Sky Wolf Valley does have a power that can help in dealing with demon beasts.”

“The Mysterious Cave, that cave has that power!”

Su Nan immediately looked at the Mysterious Cave’s location.

Inside the Mysterious Cave was an altar for offering sacrifices to the Demon Monarch. As long as one stepped onto the altar, they would be watched by the Demon Monarch.

If something was taken from it, it would result in being struck down by the Demon Monarch, except for demons, who would be spared.

“If the demon beast strongly desires the demon sword, I can just throw it on the altar. The demon beast will most likely go and take it.”

“In that case, the demon beast might be struck down by the Demon Monarch.” With this thought, Su Nan’s eyes shone bright.

That was the Demon Monarch, even if countless miles separated them, he believed that it should be more than enough to deal with a Xuan-level demon beast.

However, there was still one problem.

If the demon beast was truly struck down, would his task be judged as a failure

or success?
