726: Chapter 220_7 726: Chapter 220_7 Having said that, he paused for a moment, then continued, “However, Senior, I have not learned the Divine Skills from the second door.”
“Useless,” Cao Zhen directly cursed in anger, “You can’t even learn such a low-level Divine Skill.
Utterly foolish.
If you can’t learn it, then stop trying and cultivate the first Divine Skill you have learned.”
After speaking, he cut off communication with the Eclipse Demon.
This Eclipse Demon, thinking of asking him to impart Divine Skills, what a joke.
The Eclipse Demon was an enemy, who had previously led an attack on the Hundred Peaks Sect.
If it weren’t for the fact that he had connected with the demon, using him to locate the lair of the Sun and Moon Demon Sect and to see if there were any plots from the remnants of the former dynasty, he would have killed him already.
Imparting Divine Skills was out of the question.
The Eclipse Demon waited for a long while, and after realizing that the voice of the Overbearing Sky Demonic Master wasn’t coming through anymore, he stood up from where he was.
He sighed softly; he had indeed wanted the Overbearing Sky Demonic Master to impart Divine Skills to him, but the master had bluntly called him stupid and then told him to cultivate the first Divine Skill.
“So, is it that I am not suited to cultivate other Divine Skills?”
The Eclipse Demon remembered the Overbearing Sky Demonic Master not allowing him into the third door today, telling him to enter tomorrow instead.
Clearly, his thoughts were correct—Overbearing Sky Demonic Master must have some use for him and did not want him to die.
If that was the case…
He was still in this relic, which is why the Overbearing Sky Demonic Master hadn’t instructed him to do anything yet; however, once he left the relic, the Overbearing Sky Demonic Master would surely have tasks for him.
And then, he could do a bit first and after that, he could think of a way to make demands of the Overbearing Sky Demonic Master to impart Divine Skills to him.
Of course, he couldn’t directly say it, as that might provoke the Overbearing Sky Demonic Master.
He had to make sure that the Overbearing Sky Demonic Master had only him to turn to before making his demands, and he also had to express his wishes in an indirect way, ideally making the Overbearing Sky Demonic Master take the initiative to impart Divine Skills to him.
For example, if the Overbearing Sky Demonic Master sent him on a dangerous mission but his strength was insufficient to complete it, the Overbearing Sky Demonic Master would have to impart Divine Skills to him to make him strong enough to complete the task!
The more the Eclipse Demon thought about it, the more excited he became.
No matter how he looked at it, encountering the Overbearing Sky Demonic Master was a good thing.
With such a terrifying being backing him, if he performed well in the future, he might directly become a subordinate or even a disciple of the Overbearing Sky Demonic Master.
Wouldn’t he rise through the ranks within the Sun and Moon Demon Sect?
Even the position of Sect Leader of the Sun and Moon Demon Sect could be possible.
No, wrong.
He had the support of the Overbearing Sky Demonic Master, a being capable of nurturing a True Immortal.
What was the Sun and Moon Demon Sect compared to that?
Now, he would first cultivate the Divine Skill he obtained on the first day.
Although he had barely learned it, his progress in cultivating it was incredibly slow.
Cao Zhen realized that this Eclipse Demon truly had average talent, or perhaps he had always won by relying on people like Xiang Ziyu, making him unconsciously raise his own expectations.
The Eclipse Demon had been cultivating that Divine Skill for so long and had only reached level three.
Truly too slow.
On a new day, the Eclipse Demon entered the third door very conscientiously, just like with the previous two doors.
As soon as he entered the door, it closed behind him automatically, and the sound attacks began while the voice of the Overbearing Sky Demonic Master echoed in his mind.
He quickly followed the voice of the Overbearing Sky Demonic Master and moved out of the range of the sound waves.
The sound waves disappeared, and he saw another corpse, as well as the third type of Divine Skill.
Like the second, he was still unable to learn this third Divine Skill.
However, he did receive another Qiankun Bag, and a Sound Bead.
Cao Zhen could now confirm that the reason the Eclipse Demon could cultivate the first Divine Skill was probably because the demon knew how to play the xun.
It was a mystery why such a demonic cultivator would know how to play the xun.
In the following days, the Eclipse Demon would enter a new door every day, and through the Eclipse Demon, Cao Zhen continued to learn a series of Divine Skills.
At last, the Sun Erosion Demon, though he had only mastered the first of Xun’s Supernatural Powers, found that upon entering each gate, he would acquire a Qiankun Bag and a Sound Bead!
Cao Zhen initially felt smug that without moving a muscle within Hundred Peaks Sect, he could learn Divine Skills, even those of the True Immortal Realm.
Could there be anything more exhilarating?
But gradually, he could no longer feel happy.
He discovered that the path of the Sun Erosion Demon seemed scarcely less than his own.
In ten days, the Sun Erosion Demon had acquired nine people’s Qiankun Bags, and those nine were all at the Ten Different Phenomena of Golden Elixir Great Perfection.
Their Qiankun Bags were certainly not lacking in treasures.
Moreover, the Sun Erosion Demon had obtained ten Sound Beads, the Divine Weapon of a Town Immortal.
Even now, during the Minor Era of Inversion of Heaven and Earth, when the Sound Beads couldn’t unleash their full might, they certainly could exhibit the extremity of power at the Golden Core Stage.
With ten Sound Beads in his possession, the Sun Erosion Demon pieced them together, and as mana surged into them, the entire relic trembled.
The ten gates that were once separated from the outer world by a mountain, yet as the ten Sound Beads came together, that great mountain simply vanished.
The Sun Erosion Demon, looking at the disappeared mountain, instantly showed a grave expression and, with a flash, hid to the side.
After they had arrived at this place, a towering mountain had appeared, dividing the relic into two sections.
They had ten people on their side, and they had tried to reach the mountain’s other side but found that those on the other side couldn’t enter here.
Therefore, during that time, he hadn’t worried about someone sneaking in here to attack him.
But now that the mountain had disappeared, they were ten who had broken in, yet the others hadn’t reached this point, that didn’t mean they were dead.
If he carelessly went out, and others saw him, wouldn’t they naturally assume he had obtained the final treasure and legacy?
What if they attacked him together?
The Sun Erosion Demon chose to hide immediately, but after a long while with no one coming forward, he finally moved slowly to the other side of the mountain.
Upon seeing the other side, he was stunned.
On the other side of the mountain, he saw nothing but corpses; the ground was covered with blood that had long since dried up.
“This is…
dead?
Are they all dead?
They were alive when I entered here; could it be, because they didn’t get in here, they had to die?
Were they slaughtered by the Formation of the Ten Sounds Sky Demon?
The Ten Sounds Sky Demon, he claimed he wasn’t a Demonic Cultivator before, that’s simply…”
The Sun Erosion Demon muttered to himself and then suddenly stopped, quickly flying towards the corpses to search them.
After all, they all had Qiankun Bags, and now, everything they had would belong to him.
The Sun Erosion Demon quickly rifled through all the bodies, and after collecting all their possessions, he finally found the relic’s exit and left.
Cao Zhen watched the Sun Erosion Demon laden with treasures, his eyes turning red with envy.
“Just wait until you bring me into the lair of the Sun and Moon Demon Sect.
Whatever you’ve taken, these things that belong to me, I’ll take them all back.
For now, let’s consider it an investment in you.
With so many treasures, especially those ten Sound Beads, and a Divine Skill from the Ten Sounds Sky Demon, your strength has increased so much.
If you can’t do well in the Sun and Moon Demon Sect, then I really need to consider finding a different inside agent.”
After the Sun Erosion Demon left the relic, he immediately bowed in the direction where the relic was closing.
However, after waiting for a long time, he didn’t hear the voice of the Overbearing Sky Demonic Master and had to leave.
