"Come, Silvermask. Let me test your demonic power again." Yan Lang smiled as he walked towards Xiao Han.
"Since you were able to kill three Ultimate Variant Demonic Emperors under Great Emperor Woodfern, you must be an Ultimate Variant as well …"
"This …" Xiao Han was speechless.
Indeed, Xiao Han hadn't awakened the 600,000th demonic meridian in his left arm yet.
Around them, the ordinary demon emperor-level monsters with single mutated, double mutated, and even the ultimate mutated demon emperors were looking at Xiao Han in awe.
"By the way, Grandmaster, would it be inappropriate for me to kill those three fellows?" Xiao Han suddenly asked.
"Oh?" Yan Lang paused for a moment before bursting into laughter.
"Silvermask, you really are a simple and honest man.
I heard that you've never been to the Demon Capital before, and that you've been roaming around outside. It looks like that's true. "
Yan Lang's attitude towards Xiao Han was now very intimate, as if he was completely treating Xiao Han as a trusted aide.
"The Demon Capital is a place where the strong survive and the weak perish. The strong prey on the weak.
That's the law of the jungle.
The three Ultimate Variant Demonic Emperors under Great Emperor Woodfern came to my territory and caused trouble. Even if you killed them, Silvermask, Great Emperor Woodfern wouldn't be able to say anything.
Even if Great Emperor Woodfern was extremely indignant, he wouldn't hold it against you for my sake.
Besides, given the potential you've displayed, even Great Emperor Woodfern must value you greatly. He won't make things difficult for you anymore.
Don't worry, I'll negotiate with Great Emperor Woodfern as soon as possible. "
"Lord Silvermask, you probably don't know this yet.
Great Emperor Woodfern wouldn't want to make a big fuss over the fact that you killed those three pieces of trash.
Great Emperor Woodfern wouldn't be able to maintain his dignity after all. Don't worry.
You've done us proud this time. "A tall, skinny, and sinister-looking Ultimate Variant Demonic Emperor bowed respectfully.
"Those fellows have always looked down on those like us who rely on precious herbs to mutate …"
"Hmph!" Yan Lang snorted unhappily.
"What's the use of innate genes?
How many mutated Demonic Emperors with innate genes can evolve into Demonic Emperors?
Not even one in a hundred million!
I'm determined to defy the heavens and change the genes of the demon race. I'm confident that I can create Demonic Emperors in the next hundred years.
When that time comes … heh.
I'm afraid that even the Ten Great Thearchs of the Demon Race have to rely on me … Forget it, let's not talk about this for now … "
A hint of resentment flashed across Yan Lang's eyes, but he quickly passed the crystal ball to Xiao Han.
"Silverface, infuse some demonic energy into the crystal ball.
From now on, I will concoct the most suitable elixir for you according to the condition of your demonic power. It will nourish your demonic body to the greatest extent, solidify your foundation, and make your demonic power more vigorous. It will be of great benefit to you when you become a demonic emperor in the future. "
These words caused the eyes of the mutated Ultimate Beast Emperors to flash with jealousy, but they didn't dare to say anything.
"Heh … This Brother Yan thinks that after I consumed that precious medicine, the power of faith towards him has been planted in the depths of my heart. Thus, he treats me as his confidant and wants to spend energy and resources to nurture me … Hahahaha … Alright, I'll feign civility for now and try to obtain as many benefits as I can. In any case, I won't suffer any losses in this matter." Xiao Han was overjoyed in his heart.
Soon, Xiao Han placed his left hand on the crystal ball, and a stream of demonic aura seeped into the ball.
"Weng ~ ~ ~ Weng ~ ~ ~ Weng ~ ~ ~ ~"
Within the transparent crystal sphere, runes immediately flashed. Scarlet light surged, and even the veins of the stars in the universe appeared.
Furthermore, the sturdy, resplendent Demonic Veins were like evil dragons that overturned the seas and rivers, riding the wind and breaking the waves as they roared.
These demon veins were all unbelievably perfect!
"What?!" Yan Lang's psychic wave swept across the crystal ball and he cried out involuntarily.
"No mutation?
Silver Mask, your 600,000th Demonic Vein has yet to be awakened … On the contrary … The quality of each Demonic Vein that you've awakened has increased by leaps and bounds, and you're displaying your domineering might everywhere … "
"Master, I'm really ashamed." Xiao Han quickly bowed and said.
"I've wasted one of Master's peerless treasured medicines, but I haven't reached the level of ultimate mutation … Wasting treasured medicines is akin to recklessly wasting God's gift.
"No, no, this isn't right …" Yan Lang's eyes fell into deep thought. He subconsciously tapped his forehead with his fingers and began to calculate bitterly.
"It seems like your 600,000th Demonic Vein can't be awakened so easily, Silver Mask.
According to my experience, once you break through that layer of window paper, you'll be extremely monstrous in a situation like this.
You'll definitely be considered heaven-defying! "
Suddenly, Yan Lang looked at Xiao Han passionately.
"Normally, the capacity of a single mutated Demon Emperor and a double mutated Demon Emperor's Demonic Vein is only ten times that of a normal Demon Emperor's Demonic Vein.
It's only possible to expand it to more than ten times after achieving ultimate mutation.
For example, the Immortal Power Demon Emperor that you killed, Silver Mask, had a Demonic Vein capacity that was thirty times that of a normal Demon Emperor's Demonic Vein. In the Demon Metropolis, it's already considered a gifted existence.
However, you, Silver Mask Demon Emperor, have yet to achieve ultimate mutation. The capacity of your Demonic Vein is already fifty times that of a normal Demon Emperor's Demonic Vein.
It's far more powerful than the Immortal Power Demon Emperor's Demonic Vein. In that case, once you achieve ultimate mutation, how powerful will you be? "
"Oh?" Xiao Han was stunned.
"Hahahahaha!
Silver Mask, according to this situation, I'm afraid your potential is no less than that of the Demon Clan's magnates who were born with noble bloodlines and became emperors!
The capacity of your Demonic Vein now is fifty times that of a normal Demon Emperor's Demonic Vein. Among the mutated Demon Emperors in the entire Demon Metropolis, you're number one!
No one can compete with you!
The capacity of the most powerful Ultimate Mutated Demon Emperor in the Demon Metropolis is only forty-one times that of a normal Demon Emperor's Demonic Vein. It's still no match for you!
You're only a Double Mutated Demon Emperor. When you achieve ultimate mutation, your Demonic Vein will expand violently again.
How many times will it expand by then?
Sixty times?
Seventy times?
Eighty times?
Hahahaha … Anything can happen! "
Xiao Han also gradually understood that the capacity of the Demonic Vein was actually similar to the Expanding Acupoint Realm in the True Energy Realm of the human race.
The more times the capacity of the Demonic Vein and the more times the Expanding Acupoint, the more it represented the potential of a genius.
"Okay, okay, okay. Silver Mask, now you rest in the villa and don't leave for even half a step. I'll immediately refine the elixir for you to consume.
Don't worry, I'll do my best to help you break through the 600,000th Demonic Vein. "Yan Lang rubbed his hands.
"This … In the elixir, I should add some Taixu Qi. No … I might as well use Dragon Beard Grass and Giant Conch Flower, supplemented by Purple Cloud Qi, or Abyss Demon Aura and Extraterrestrial Meteorite Flower …"
Yan Lang began to think and murmured to himself.
…
The third level of the Demon Metropolis!
The third level of the Demon Metropolis was extremely mysterious, as if it was in another space.
In this misty space, there was a high quality Demonic Qi everywhere. Traces of demonic mist and crimson mist lingered, and evil Demonic Talismans bloomed everywhere.
A Demon Palace that seemed to be refined from five-colored divine jade stood at the center of this misty space with a translucent, glittering brilliance.
The Demon Palace was engraved with countless ancient Demon Race characters. Some of them looked like dragons and phoenixes, while others looked like black tortoises and qilins. All of them exuded an ancient aura.
Inside the palace stood a total of ten ancient god-like Monster Race Great Emperors!
"Great Emperor Woodfern, the Divine Force Demon Emperor, the Dragon-Elephant Demon Emperor, and the Demon Temple Demon Emperor are all dead.
What do you think about this? "
"Hmm … Let this Emperor think about it …" A silhouette wearing a dark golden cloak with an aura as long as the heavens pondered for a moment.
"This Yan Lang is getting more and more unscrupulous.
How dare he stop our subordinates from bringing the Silver Mask Demon Emperor back.
He even killed our subordinates … Damn it!
Damn it!
He deserves to die! "
"All of you, shut up."
Great Emperor Woodfern suddenly spoke in a dignified voice. "The Divine Force Demon Emperor, the Dragon-Elephant Demon Emperor, and the Demon Temple Demon Emperor were all my capable subordinates. In a one-on-one battle, they could practically wipe out all the Demon Emperors in Grandmaster Yan Lang's villa.
Even if they were surrounded, they could still escape from the villa.
But now, they've been killed. They didn't even have time to send a message to me before they died.
It's very likely that they were killed in an instant. "
"Hiss!!!
Great Emperor Woodfern, there's no way a Ultimate Variant Demon Emperor in Yan Lang's villa could kill three of your subordinates in an instant.
Even in the entire Demon Capital, there's no Ultimate Variant Demon Emperor that could kill the Divine Force Demon Emperor, the Demon Temple Demon Emperor, and the Dragon-Elephant Demon Emperor at the same time. "
"That's right. Even the most terrifying Demoness of all the mutated Demoness Emperors couldn't kill your three most trusted subordinates in an instant," said Patriarch Woodfern.
"There's no such existence in the entire Demon Capital, and it's even harder to find one in Grandmaster Yan Lang's villa.
The only explanation is … the Silver-Masked Demon Emperor.
Perhaps it was him. "Great Emperor Woodfern chuckled.
"Now that's interesting.
Grandmaster Yan Lang said that the Silver-Masked Demon Emperor's potential is unparalleled throughout the ages, and that he could help us realize our plan …. It seems he wasn't exaggerating.
It's possible that the Silver-Masked Demon Emperor …. "
"If the Silver-Masked Demon Emperor was the one who killed three of your subordinates in an instant, it's more than enough to prove that he's invincible among the Demon Tribes of this plane!
As for our plan … once it succeeds, we'll be able to control everything in this world!
Not only will we reign supreme over this plane, but we'll also be able to invade other planes! "
"That's why I said we shouldn't touch the Silver-Masked Demon Emperor for now.
Let Grandmaster Yan Lang do what he wants, "Great Emperor Woodfern said with a smile.
"This Grandmaster Yan Lang is truly ambitious. He can blot out the sun, and all the precious pills he concocts contain the power of faith.
In the future, if he can really mass produce demon emperors, he will definitely plant the power of faith in the hearts of these demon emperors … But it doesn't matter. As long as we invite the Demon God Altar, with the power of faith of Lord Demon God, we can directly refine the power of faith that Yan Lang planted in the hearts of these demon emperors. Then, all the created demon emperors will regain their original surnames and be loyal to Lord Demon God. "
"Hahahaha … an idiot like Yan Lang dares to scheme against us?
Hahahahaha …. To put it bluntly, we're just using him!
He's just a human. What right does he have to steal the faith of the Demon Tribe?
The Demon God is our greatest source of faith!
Yan Lang, you're just making a wedding dress for us! "
"However, we shouldn't offend Yan Lang. All of our plans and ambitions require Yan Lang's talent in pill concoction."
"Although the Silver-Masked Demon Emperor's potential far exceeds our imagination, the reason he was able to kill my three trusted subordinates in an instant is most likely due to the ancient treasure in his possession …. I'm also very interested in that treasure … Just what kind of treasure is it?" Great Emperor Woodfern smiled playfully.
"The more I think about it, the more I feel an itch in my heart …. Hahahaha, it's been a long time since I've felt this way …."
"Hahaha … Great Emperor Woodfern, didn't you say that you wouldn't disturb the Silver-Masked Demon Emperor anymore?
Just bear with it for now. Let's see if Grandmaster Yan Lang can create a miracle.
To be honest, mass-producing Beast Monarchs is much more important than just an ancient secret treasure, "another Martial Monarch smiled.
"Hmm …" Great Emperor Woodfern pondered for a moment, then smiled in relief.
"How about this. I won't send my subordinates to the manor to capture the Silver-Masked Demon Emperor.
However, we'll release our demonic senses to observe the Silver-Masked Demon Emperor.
With our knowledge, we'll definitely be able to determine the type of treasure the Silver-Masked Demon Emperor possesses.
Basically, we're ninety percent sure. "
"Alright, let's take a look and see what kind of secrets this little guy has." The other nine Great Emperors agreed unanimously.
