Chapter 258 (1/2)
[Innate Spiritual Great Escapement (High-Grade Mystic Art): The demon clan’s supreme mystic art that could capture all things and control the universe.]
Not bad for a High-Grade Mystic Art.
It was just that the name was a bit like the immortal cultivator mystic art, so perhaps the demons felt it was the only way they could have some elegance.
Furthermore, why didn’t the opponent display it just now?
Could it be that the God Spear was so fast that the opponent couldn’t react, or maybe it really was that?
He didn’t feel inflated by the surge in his qi.
However, he was still looking for demons.
Because that was what made life interesting.
What’s the point of always going in search of any treasures with the powerful people? What’s the point of working so hard, if, in the end, you still get nothing?
It would be better to raise your strength first. That would be the right way.
……….
In the abyss.
The demonic fog here had become so thick that people would encounter demons made from the condensation of demon mist.
A group of powerful people had already overrun many demons. So, even if there were more of these demons, they wouldn’t be able to bring any trouble to these powerful people.
“This old man has already felt that ancient qi transmitted from afar.”
“This demonic fog is too thick. It can even block our vision.”
A powerful person shone with golden light all over his body. This golden light was like a sun that was enough to cover the world, but it was strange that it couldn’t pierce through this dense demonic fog.
“Be careful; you must not be careless.” Another powerful person said.
Not long after, the dense demonic fog disappeared, and a corpse appeared on the distant steps. It fixed itself there in the form of kneeling worship, which shocked them.
This was the only corpse they had seen since the beginning.
“This corpse seems to be from the Halloween Demon King. How did he die here?” A powerful person exclaimed, not even daring to believe it. How could the Halloween Demon King with Void Stage cultivation die so casually?
“Are you sure?”
“It shouldn’t be possible.”
“This is the territory of the demon clan. How could the Halloween Demon King die here? I think you must be mistaken.”
They obviously didn’t believe it. If that was true, then this was terrifying news.
The powerful person didn’t say anything more. However, his steps slowed down a bit; he didn’t walk at the front but behind the crowd.
He couldn’t be sure whether it was the remains of the Halloween Demon King.
“What would be in that stone steps above the altar?”
The curiosity in the hearts of all the powerful people was piqued.
Right, that was an altar.
They felt that the altar was the hiding place of the great treasure. If they could get it, they would be absolutely generous.
Therefore, the powerful people quickly stepped forward, just in case they fell behind and couldn’t get a glimpse of the great treasure.
A powerful person that fell behind asked in a low voice.
“Why are you sauntering?”
“If your feet hurt, you’ll walk slower, won’t you?”
“My feet hurt, too, so I’ll accompany you.”
When passing by the Halloween Demon King’s corpse, some of the powerful people didn’t pay much attention. However, some noticed that something was a bit off about the Halloween Demon King’s corpse.
There was something strange about it. It was as if it was willingly kneeling there, with blood, flesh, and essence being sucked out of it.
But that was the problem.
How could a Void Realm demon die so willingly? He cultivated for countless years to attain immortality. He must truly be damned if he would die willingly.
Soon.
There were shouts of alarm transmitted.
“No, there’s nothing on the altar, was it a mistake?” Some powerful people shouted. They were all looking for the great demon treasure, but now there was nothing here, just an empty pool.
It was dry inside, not even a single drop of liquid.
A powerful demon pondered for a moment, then exclaimed, “This is not a great treasure, but a Turning Pool. That corpse is not the original body of the Halloween Demon King, but his predecessor. He went through the turning pool and turned into a demon body.”
Right after that, another powerful person couldn’t believe it.
“Could it be that the great demon treasure we came to look for is this Turning Pool? It’s all been pre-empted by the Halloween Demon King, does that mean we’ve all come for nothing?”
They were upset. They were ready for the great treasure, but this happened.
It was a little too heartbreaking.
“Wait, there are passage and footprints. Creatures are passing through here. The Turning Pool is not the great treasure. The great treasure is still inside, and it has an even stronger demonic qi.”
“What? There’s a passage?”
“Wait, this hole is a little small. Why does it feel like a dog hole.”
“Should we crawl or not.”
“Let’s crawl…”
…………..
The outside world.
Lin Fan liked this place because the demons were very active. His requirements were simple; he didn’t want them to drop anything except for qi and talent.
