Fate-Defying Demon Emperor

This towering figure wearing the Ghostly Face Mask felt like it was Su Han, yet not like him at all—real and illusory, tangible and intangible—making it difficult for him to discern.

”Shore Flowers bloom in seven-colored skies; once the petals fall, one becomes immortal for a thousand years. What does this phrase mean?”

Su Han frowned slightly, surprised as he recalled the whisper he had heard earlier. That sentence must have been spoken by the Cruel Demon Emperor, but Su Han had no idea what it specifically meant. He pondered for a long time without finding an answer and finally gave up.

The Seven Injuries Devil Honorable is here!

Suddenly, Su Han sensed the rapid approach of the Seven Injuries Devil Honorable. Shocked, he swiftly retracted his Heaven and Earth Physique and used Thousand Changes and Transformations to once again assume the likeness of Yin Ya, the Little Demon Lord.

BOOM!

Su Han sprang into action, taking out several utterly destructive Talismans from his Storage Ring. He had obtained all of them from the Demon Cult’s treasury. As the Talismans were activated, storms raged like dragons, flames burned like seas, thunderbolts filled the skies, and blades of light cascaded like waterfalls, leaving the entire Spirit Vein shattered.

Su Han then crashed himself into a wall, bringing down a large section of it. Falling rocks and earth completely buried his figure.

Just as he finished, the Seven Injuries Devil Honorable arrived. Upon seeing the destruction of the Spirit Vein, his eyes blazed with a furious, wild hatred. However, a sweep of his Divine Sense revealed Su Han buried under the rocks and dirt, and he quickly rushed over to rescue him.

”Yin Ya, how are you?”

The Seven Injuries Devil Honorable quickly took out Healing Pills and fed them to Su Han, then helped heal his injuries and restore his consciousness.

”Father, an intruder broke in! Catch him, quickly!” Su Han’s eyes showed fear as he spoke urgently, his acting impeccable.

”What happened?”

Seeing that Su Han was unharmed, the Seven Injuries Devil Honorable breathed a sigh of relief. Now that his son was safe, it was time to hunt down that despicable thief with all his might.

”Father, I was breaking through in the Spirit Marrow Pool. Just after I succeeded, a figure suddenly appeared and sent me flying with a single palm strike. Then he stole the Spirit Marrow and destroyed the Spirit Vein!”

Su Han had already prepared his story, and he recounted it vividly, filling it with convincing details. Consumed by rage, the Seven Injuries Devil Honorable was even less likely to doubt him.

”This thief has malicious intentions, but I have already activated the Sect Protection Great Formation. I believe he cannot escape even with wings. You go out first, and I will search around here.”

The Seven Injuries Devil Honorable did not doubt his own flesh and blood and spoke without reservation. With a wave of his hand, he tore open a rift in space and sent Su Han out. He then continued to search the Spirit Vein himself, an effort that was doomed to be fruitless.

This Thousand Changes and Transformations is truly magical. Even a Supreme Realm Martial Artist can’t see through it. Now that the Demon Cult’s treasury and the Intermediate-Grade Spirit Vein have been destroyed, my objectives are nearly achieved. However, the Heavenly Demon Cult isn’t chaotic enough. I must make it even more so to force the Seven Injuries Devil Honorable to seek reinforcements from the Earth Fiend Demon Sovereign.

After leaving the Spirit Vein and returning to the surface, Su Han quickly contemplated his plan. So far, his plan had been executed perfectly. With the help of the Spirit Marrow Pool and the Intermediate-Grade Spirit Vein, he had even broken through to the Physique Realm. His realm had been elevated, and his Combat Power was now extraordinary.

Let’s see what unlocking the Ghostly Face Mask’s third seal has brought me.

Su Han didn’t rush to the next step. Instead, he found a secluded place to put on the Ghostly Face Mask. Immediately, a surge of Devouring Heaven Demonic Qi stormed through him. It flowed through his limbs and bones, making his aura even more cold and domineering—like a merciless Demon Emperor who held the power of life and death.

Physique Realm Second Layer!

Physique Realm Third Layer!

Physique Realm Fourth Layer!

As usual, his power received another boost, breaking through three minor realms in a row. He now possessed the formidable Combat Power of the Physique Realm’s Fourth Layer. In addition, a familiar stream of information entered Su Han’s sea of consciousness, detailing a new Secret Technique.

Previously, Su Han had obtained the Character Technique of Motion, the Secret of the Battle Character, and the Secret of the Soldier Character.

And this time, it was the Secret of Healer.

[Secret of Healer: A Healing Secret Technique that can be used to pursue immortality. Once cast, it can instantly restore a person’s injuries, but it can only be used once a day!]

Su Han quickly familiarized himself with the Secret of Healer. A Healing Secret Technique was exactly what he needed most. He wasn’t lacking in offensive or defensive means; he even had Divine Methods like Thousand Changes and Transformations and the Nine Heavens Eye. Although his physical body had reached the Crystallization of the Holy Body, his Sacred Body’s self-healing ability was only slightly stronger than that of an ordinary Martial Artist and wasn’t particularly monstrous.

All this time, if Su Han sustained serious injuries, he could only slowly recover by taking Healing Pills. While this worked, some injuries were difficult to heal, and during a fight, any wound could lead to a decrease in Combat Power.

With the Secret of Healer, Su Han no longer had to worry about this problem. In a fierce battle where both sides had exhausted their strength, he could cast the Secret of Healer. Instantly recovering from his injuries would absolutely grant him the upper hand and secure the final victory.

The Nine Secrets were each truly extraordinary!

I have three days, perhaps even less. I must quickly instigate turmoil within the Heavenly Demon Cult.

Su Han swiftly mastered the Secret of Healer, then left the palace to begin his next plan.

If the disciples of the Heavenly Demon Cult suffer heavy casualties, perhaps that will force them to return and defend the sect!

A cold gleam flashed in Su Han’s eyes as his killing intent flared. As for the risk of killing innocents, Su Han wasn’t worried at all. The cultivation methods of the Heavenly Demon Cult all revolved around murder. This was true for both the Bloodthirsty Little Demon Lord and the Blood Poison Little Demon Lord.

However, I can’t use the Yin Ya alias. He’s too notorious, so acting as him could easily expose me. Besides, I still need this identity to deal with the Seven Injuries Devil Honorable.

Su Han used Thousand Changes and Transformations to revert to Ma Yuan’s appearance, then he left the palace and headed toward a distant crowd.

”Brother Ma Yuan, are you courting death? The Seven Injuries Devil Honorable commanded us not to act rashly! Now that an intruder has snuck in, the Seven Injuries Devil Honorable is enraged. You shouldn’t go looking for trouble!” a disciple of the Heavenly Demon Cult exclaimed in shock upon seeing Su Han, quickly warning him.

”An intruder?”

Su Han strolled over to the disciple with perfect composure, clearly unshaken.

”Brother Ma Yuan, what’s with you today? You seem a bit odd!”

The disciple looked puzzled, but he didn’t suspect that the Ma Yuan before him was an impostor. After all, he knew his martial brother Ma Yuan very well.

Seeing that the disciple had no guard up against him, Su Han was inwardly pleased. He stepped closer, drew the Black Blade, and slashed. The strike was swift, accurate, and merciless. The Heavenly Demon Cult disciple had no time to react before he was cut down. His face was frozen in shock and confusion, clearly not understanding why Ma Yuan would kill him.

Let the slaughter begin.
