1591 Its All About Appearances (1/2)

He could only use the Demon Element once, and he had no idea if it would last until he found the Day and Dusk Compass. What if he spent too much time here in the chambers and ran out of time later?
There were two more chambers after this. If Mo Fan had to use the Demon Element now, he would have to end the fights as soon as possible!
The Scorpion Lord Medusa sensed the presence of the Demon Element growing on Mo Fan. The burns left by the demonic flames began to hurt all of a sudden.
It was him for sure!
The Scorpion Lord Medusa was even more enraged. How dare he come to her nest? He was clearly crossing the line!
”I didn't have enough time to kill you before, but this time, you're clearly going to die and rot in your own chamber!” Blood-red runes spread across Mo Fan's body, followed by a shadow with an overwhelming aura emerging from his back!
The Scorpion Lord Medusa tensed. Its aura began to fluctuate wildly!
Mo Fan's breathing intensified. He could feel the blood boiling inside him. He knew the other him was going to take over his body once the demon blood spread throughout his body.
However, the feeling was not that strong. Somehow, the demon blood did not boil as quickly as he had imagined. It was flowing a lot slower, too...
It felt strange, but Mo Fan was not bothered by it. He continued to activate the power of the Demon Element...
His heart pounded heavily all of a sudden, followed by a sharp pain. His forehead was covered in sweat now...
The boiling blood in him began to cool down. The shadow on his back shuddered. He froze for half a second, too!
What just happened?
Why is the power of the Demon Element fading away?
Mo Fan was utterly shocked. Normally, the power of the Demon Element would be awakened by now. He was activating it the same way as before. It never faded away halfway like it was doing now!
Does this mean Old Bao was right? My cultivation is nowhere strong enough to support frequent usage of the Demon Element. I can only use it when the Essence Orb is filled! Mo Fan was a little lost now.
The first time he used the Demon Element was in the abandoned Jinlin City. He had a long rest after then, until he had a breakthrough during the Calamity of the Ancient Capital, which awakened the Demon Element on its own...
The third time he had used it was at the Parthenon Temple. The Essence Orb was filled, so he did not experience any side effects from using the Demon Element apart from being worn out by it. The fourth time was at the Northguard Fortress. It had been more than half a year since then, but he had used the Demon Element when the Essence Orb was not filled.
In other words, even after half a year, his Demon Element was still on cooldown!
F**k, I'm done for! Mo Fan was about to lose his mind.
He had only dared to intrude on the Pyramid because he was counting on his Demon Element. He could escape from the place with the Demon Element if the plan went south. He would have no trouble running away if he was not surrounded by a bunch of Ruler-level creatures, or even caught by Khufu.
Little did he know, his body had yet to fully recover. The Demon Element was still not available. Meanwhile, the Essence Orb was only a third full!
