Fate-Defying Demon Emperor

The Great Majestic Demon King’s compromise had solved a major problem for Su Han. Otherwise, being constantly targeted by the Great Majestic Demon King would have meant danger at every turn. But now, the situation had improved. The Great Majestic Demon King had temporarily become Su Han’s ally, not only ceasing to be a threat to his life but also helping him grow stronger. Of course, neither Su Han nor the Great Majestic Demon King completely trusted the other. They were merely attempting an initial collaboration, but for Su Han, this was enough.

Hmm? It actually advanced to a Low Grade Dao Artifact!

Su Han’s expression shifted as he looked down at the Black Blade in his hand. A Flame Demon Pattern was now inscribed upon the blade, which emanated a Demonic Intent that could rival Dao Rhyme. Its grade had jumped directly from a Magic Artifact to a Low Grade Dao Artifact. This upgrade had massively increased the Black Blade’s power. But what exactly are the conditions for its promotion?

”This blade’s original name is the Eight-Sealed Demonic Blade. It has eight seals in total,” the Great Majestic Demon King explained. ”Each time you borrow my power, you allow me to use your body as a medium to break free from a sliver of the seal. The stronger my Demonic Qi becomes, the more it will affect this blade, allowing it to recover some of its power.

”If you can undo the first seal, this blade’s power will be comparable to a Holy Artifact. Therefore, I need a large quantity of flesh and blood—the stronger the source, the better.”

It was up to Su Han to judge how much truth was in those words.

The Eight-Sealed Demonic Blade? ’Black Blade’ is easier to say, but the eight seals might be real. If our cooperation goes well, I wouldn’t be against helping the Great Majestic Demon King break one or two of them. After all, I still need to rely on his power for now. The stronger he becomes, the more power I can borrow.

”Don’t worry, I’ll find flesh and blood for you,” Su Han assured the Great Majestic Demon King. He gripped the Black Blade and manipulated it with the Secret of the Soldier Character. The Flame Demon Pattern on the blade immediately flared to life, and a Bloodthirsty Demonic Flame erupted, coating the blade. The terrifying heat distorted the surrounding air.

”This is the Bloodthirsty Demonic Flame,” the Great Majestic Demon King offered freely. ”Once it touches someone, it rapidly burns through their flesh—it is a bane to the physical body.” It was this very flame that had broken through Xuan Song’s Tai Mount Sacred Body. Otherwise, with the durability of the Sacred Body, Xuan Song might have lasted a while longer.

Hearing the Great Majestic Demon King’s introduction, Su Han’s eyes lit up. The Bloodthirsty Demonic Flame, a bane to the physical body... what a treasure! I wonder if my Supreme Physical Body can withstand it. If used well, this could be another major trump card.

”My power is nearly exhausted. I’m about to fall into a deep sleep again,” the Great Majestic Demon King’s voice grew weak. ”You must find flesh and blood for me quickly, or I will remain in this slumber.” Providing Su Han with Demonization this time had consumed a great deal of his Demonic Qi.

Soon after, the Great Majestic Demon King fell completely silent. No matter how many times Su Han called out, there was no response.

It seems I really do have to find some powerful flesh and blood soon. The Great Majestic Demon King’s insights are valuable; he can provide me with useful information. Although Su Han had inherited the memories of the nine Divine and Demonic Beings, the world was too vast for even them to know everything. As a Demon King of the Demon Race, the Great Majestic Demon King knew things Su Han did not, such as the Eight-Sealed Demonic Blade and the Bloodthirsty Demonic Flame.

Putting the Black Blade away, Su Han’s gaze fell upon Xuan Song’s corpse. Xuan Song had been a powerhouse at the Third Layer of the Heavenly King Realm and possessed a Sacred Body. His Qi-Blood was vigorous and his flesh was brimming with energy, making him the perfect meal to replenish the Great Majestic Demon King. Unfortunately for the demon, Su Han needed it more.

”Devouring Heaven Demonic Art!” Feeling utterly drained, Su Han immediately executed the technique and began to devour Xuan Song’s Tai Mount Sacred Body. He was also driven by necessity, as his brutal, Demonized State had left Xuan Song’s corpse torn in two, making it impossible to preserve for long.

Protected by the Nine Palaces Bagua Formation, Su Han had no fear of being disturbed.

「One day and one night later.」

Su Han had successfully devoured and refined Xuan Song’s Tai Mount Sacred Body.

BOOM!

An immense pressure burst forth from within Su Han. After fusing with the Origin Source of the Tai Mount Sacred Body, his own body became incredibly heavy, like a great mountain. Now, if he didn’t control himself, a single step would leave a deep footprint in the ground.

My weight has increased considerably, and my Physical Strength has improved tremendously! Su Han clenched his fists, joy shining in his eyes.

His original Physical Strength was three hundred million pounds, but after the refinement of the Tai Mount Sacred Body, it had astonishingly risen to one billion pounds. If he wore the Dragon Silkworm Silk Gloves, a single punch could unleash a terrifying force of two billion pounds. With such power, he could shatter a thousand-foot mountain with a single blow.

Furthermore, Xuan Song had been a master at the Third Layer of the Heavenly King Realm. Even though he had used the Blood Ignition Forbidden Technique, the energy remaining in his flesh was still immense. Su Han’s cultivation soared, breaking through from the Third Layer of the Physique Realm to the Sixth Layer, advancing three levels at once.

If he were to don the Ghostly Face Mask and use Physique Fusion, he might even be able to fight an expert in the Divine Power Realm.

Phenomenon: Grandeur of Tai Mount!

The Phenomenon of the Tai Mount Sacred Body manifested on its own, but it was immediately devoured by the Dual Black Holes, increasing their diameter from eighteen to twenty-one meters.

Origin Technique: Heavier Than Tai Mount!

With a thought, Su Han deployed the Tai Mount Sacred Body’s Origin Technique. He could use it on others to make their bodies immeasurably heavy and difficult to move, or he could apply it to himself to dramatically increase his own weight.

This Origin Technique is excellent. If I combine it with the Myriad Encompassing Heavenly Attraction, magnetism plus gravity would create a gravitational magnetic field—practically a pseudo-Domain. Within a hundred-meter radius, I could gain a massive advantage.

In addition, devouring a Special Physique activated the corresponding entity within the Prison Divine Palace. Su Han’s mind stirred, and his consciousness entered the palace once again. Inside, a hazy yellow light began to emerge.

The source of this yellow light was a tall, burly man with a solemn face. A divine might as majestic as a mountain emanated from his body.

This can’t possibly be a real Mountain Divine, can it? Su Han was stunned. Xuan Song’s own Physique had been modeled after a Mountain Divine, but this man not only possessed the Tai Mount Sacred Body but also exuded an immense divine majesty. Since everyone imprisoned here was a divine or demonic being, Su Han couldn’t help but entertain the possibility.

If he’s a real Mountain Divine, then the inherited memories he’ll give me must be extraordinary.

Su Han focused his senses for a moment and realized this Mountain Divine would take about twenty-one days to fully awaken. The thought filled him with anticipation.

Time to leave. Withdrawing his consciousness from the Prison Divine Palace, Su Han waved his hand. The Nine Palace Golden Pagoda returned to his Bronze Ring, and the Nine Palaces Bagua Formation dissipated.

However, just as Su Han prepared to leave, a familiar voice suddenly called out, ”Su Han, you really are here!”
