I Secretly Develop Myself In The Demon World

Chapter 692: Chapter 365: Forced Breakthrough_2

[The old man became young again, but as the old man changed, you noticed that the breath on his body was constantly growing stronger, while the demon beast’s face, who was about to kill the old man, changed drastically, and it wanted to escape at the first opportunity.]

[The old man did not intend to let the demon beast go, and as the old man made his move this time, even if you were tens of miles away, you could still feel the power of Heaven and Earth around you being mobilized. The terrifying power the old man burst out made you realize that he had already reached the Saint Level.]

“Saint Level!”

“What is this secret technique that can increase one’s strength so significantly!?”

Su Nan was shocked, he initially just wanted to see what effect the demon beast breaking free would have on him, but he didn’t expect it to expose a hidden peak Emperor-level being.

Even more unexpected was that this peak Emperor-level being possessed a secret technique capable of exerting Saint-level power!

[The demon beast was no match for the old man and was eventually killed by him. However, as the old man’s rejuvenated body changed once again, it aged even more quickly.]

[Just a breath after the demon beast was killed, the old man’s once youthful body had already aged to the extreme, and finally turned into ashes and dissipated.]

[After everything settled down, you went to the White Winged Tiger Clan, only to find out that the existence that had taken action earlier was an ancestor from the clan thousands of years ago.]

[That ancestor had already reached the peak of Emperor-level thousands of years ago, but there was not enough Heavenly and Earthly vitality to support the birth of a Saint Level expert.]

[Thousands of years ago, the Demon Monarch predicted that the Heavenly and Earthly vitality would recover in a few thousand years. In order to wait for the recovery of Heavenly and Earthly vitality, the ancestors of various clans who were at the peak of Emperor Level began to extend their lives by various means, with many choosing to use secret techniques to seal themselves.]

[That old man was one of them, and if it weren’t for today’s demon beast breaking free and the White Winged Tiger Clan facing an unprecedented crisis of annihilation, the old man would not have appeared.]

[Unfortunately, the demon beast was too powerful, and the ancestor of the White Winged Tiger Clan had to attempt a breakthrough to the Saint Level. Although the Heavenly and Earthly vitality has recovered now, it is still insufficient to support the birth of a Saint Level expert.]

[By forcibly making a breakthrough, the ancestor of the White Winged Tiger Clan succeeded, but the ultimate price he paid was his life.]

“Heavenly and Earthly vitality is insufficient, so he cannot break through”

“So that’s why.”

Su Nan suddenly understood that he had thought the old man was using a secret technique, but now he realized that it was not the case.

It was not a secret technique, but a real breakthrough!

He couldn’t help feeling pity for the ancestor of the White Winged Tiger Clan.

After thousands of years of sealing himself just to wait for the Heavenly and Earthly vitality to recover, he aimed to make a breakthrough from the Emperor-level.

Now that the Heavenly and Earthly vitality has begun to recover, the ancestor of the White Winged Tiger Clan has almost set foot in the Saint Level realm, just waiting for the Heavenly and Earthly vitality to fully recover so he could truly enter the Saint Level.

But now, a peak Emperor-level demon beast has escaped, forcing the ancestor to make a breakthrough, ultimately turning into ashes with all his efforts wasted. It is a sad story.

Su Nan would naturally not feel sad for the death of a demon, the shocking information in his foreknowledge was more concerning to him.

“Not only one Demonic Emperor chose to seal themselves and wait for the vitality to recover, the ancestor of the White Winged Tiger Clan is just one of them, so how many more powerful demons are there in the demon clan waiting for this recovery?”

Thinking of the situation of the humans, Su Nan became somewhat worried.

According to the information he had obtained earlier, the Bloodline Path could not break through to the Saint Level. If this news is true, then it means that there are at most some peak Emperor-level existences in the Human race, with no God Level powerhouses.

Even if there are many peak Emperor-level humans who chose to seal themselves, they still cannot break through to the Saint Level when the Heavenly and Earthly vitality recovers.

In this way, with the Demon Saints continuously appearing, and the Human race not having Saint-level powerhouses, even with the Heavenly Dome Divine Prohibition, it would be difficult for them to escape the fate of being annihilated in the end.

After all, the Heavenly Dome Divine Prohibition has its limits; it can suppress Emperor-level powerhouses but can hardly suppress Saint-level powerhouses.

“The fourth great catastrophe, the Human race will face trouble this time.” Su Nan’s heart was heavy.

Foreknowledge had not ended yet, but the contents continued.

[Hu Xiaotian has died, and you’ve lost your spot in the Heavenly Demon Grand Ceremony, but you haven’t given up and continue towards the Sky Demon Palace.]

[Eight hours later, you arrive at the Picking Stars Peak where the Sky Demon Palace is located and meet many members of the demon race who have come to participate in the Heavenly Demon Grand Ceremony. After finding the Skywolf Clan’s Demon Emperor, Great Princess, and others, you tell them everything that happened in the White Winged Tiger Clan.]

[After listening to your account, the Skywolf Demon Emperor and his entourage are greatly surprised, and you try to inquire about the number of self-sealed Peak Emperors in the Ten Thousand Demon Ridge.]

[The Skywolf Demon Emperor doesn’t conceal the truth, informing you that there are at least ten self-sealed Peak Emperors in Ten Thousand Demon Ridge. The reason why the top-ranking demon clans can remain so powerful is due to the existence of these ancestors.]

[At the same time, learning that Hu Xiaotian was also killed by the demon beast, the Skywolf Demon Emperor decides to let Bai Yu give up this opportunity and keep the spot for you, hoping that you can represent the Skywolf Clan and win a top-ten position.]

“Ten!”

Su Nan takes a deep breath in shock.

Now that the Heavenly and Earthly vitality has already begun to recover, by the public beta test in three days, the Heavenly and Earthly vitality will surely recover substantially again. As a result, it won’t be long before it’s fully restored.

If all those self-sealed Demonic Emperors can break through to the Saint level, that would mean more than 10 demon saints!

How can humans withstand so many Saints?!

[One day later, the Heavenly Demon Grand Ceremony officially begins on Picking Stars Peak, with demon emperors from all clans gathering to enter the Sky Demon Palace and worship the Demon Ancestor. You’re very curious about the Sky Demon Palace and want to enter to explore it, but unfortunately, only the Demonic Emperors are qualified to participate in the worship of the Demon Ancestor.]

[After the worship ceremony ends, you learn that the number of Demonic Emperors participating in the Heavenly Demon Grand Ceremony has reached a total of twenty-three, far more than in the previous ceremonies.]

[Among them, there are twelve Early Stage Emperors – most of them newly advanced in the past few decades. There are eight Mid-Stage Emperors and three Late Stage Great Monsters.]

[At the same time, during the worship ceremony, the Demon Monarch appears and reveals information about the spatial channel that will open in two days. After discussions with the demon emperors, it is decided that four Demonic Emperors will be sent into the spatial channel.]

“Four Demonic Emperors!”

Su Nan frowns, not expecting to receive such news.

He finds it not strange that the Demonic Monarch would know about the opening of the Spatial Channel; the demon race has been keeping an eye on the players, and such a significant event as the public beta test would not be unknown to the demon race.

What he didn’t expect was that these Demonic Emperors would place such importance on the real world and send four Demonic Emperors at once.

Keep in mind that entering the Spatial Channel is not risk-free; if unlucky, one could be strangled by the channel’s spatial forces.

However, when he thinks about the Heavenly and Earthly vitality that Earth possesses, he understands.

[Two days later, you’re prepared to enter the Sky Demon Palace and explore. After observing for six hours, you finally find an opportunity and disguise yourself as a guard of the Sky Demon Palace, approaching it.]

[One minute later, you use the Across the Heavens Shift to enter the Sky Demon Palace. The moment you enter, you’re attracted by the stone pillars inside the palace.]

[You see that each stone pillar is carved with a demon, and those carvings are so lifelike that you almost feel like they are actually alive.]

[Upon closer inspection, you eventually discover that there are a total of one hundred stone pillars here, representing the hundred strongest ancient demon clans. Each pillar is carved with a corresponding demon.]

[Two minutes later, disguised as an inconspicuous flying insect, you prepare to explore the grand hall. However, at this moment, you are surprised to find that the carvings of the demons on the stone pillars are actually alive, their eyes staring at you.]

[You realize you’ve been discovered, and you want to flee immediately. You use the Across the Heavens Shift, but, to your horror, you fail to escape from the hall and remain inside.]

[You keep trying various methods, but three minutes later, you still haven’t been able to escape from the Sky Demon Palace. You finally realize that your inability to leave is related to those stone pillars.]

[No longer holding back, you activate the Apocalypse Heavenly Thunder within your body, intending to shatter the stone pillars in the hall.]

[However, at the moment when you activate the Apocalypse Heavenly Thunder, you are horrified to see a giant eye appearing on the dome of the grand hall.]

[You have died.]
