Fate-Defying Demon Emperor

The Nine Secrets are the Inheritance Secret Technique left in the Ghostly Face Mask by the Cruel Demon Emperor.

The Ghostly Face Mask has a total of eighteen seals. Every time Su Han breaks through a Great Realm, he can unlock one of them, obtaining a secret technique, each being the ultimate in its respective domain.

So far, Su Han has obtained seven secret techniques, each providing him with great assistance.

Unfortunately, the Nine Secrets cannot exert their ultimate power upon acquisition. So far, Su Han has only cultivated the Character Technique of Motion to minor accomplishment, capable of exploding with double the speed of sound, while the other six secret techniques are just barely past the threshold.

If each secret technique is cultivated to the extreme, they are comparable to Divine Arts, possessing boundless power.

When the Ghostly Face Mask is worn, a cold Demonic Qi gushes out from the mask at once, quickly penetrating into Su Han’s whole body, causing his aura to surge and his strength to increase.

Saint Realm Second Layer, Saint Realm Third Layer, Saint Realm Fourth Layer!

The Ghostly Face Mask lived up to Su Han’s expectations. After unsealing, the demonic energy increased, allowing him to experience the feeling of breaking through three realms in succession. Although this power belongs to the Ghostly Face Mask and will disappear once removed, it significantly boosted Su Han’s combat power.

Apart from the Devouring Heaven Demonic Qi, Su Han also obtained the much-coveted Nine Secrets.

”Number Secret: Supportive Secret Technique, capable of deploying multiple methods simultaneously. When practiced to the limit, countless methods can be executed in a second!”

This time, Su Han acquired the Number Secret. It’s a supportive secret technique, but it can also be extremely formidable in battle.

Though Su Han currently masters numerous Origin Techniques and Divine Methods, each needs to be deployed separately; otherwise, deploying two methods simultaneously would cause the demonic energy to collide, akin to two carts rushing forward at the same time, leading to a collision midway.

Using the Number Secret to deploy Martial Techniques allows concurrent operation. While others may execute a single Martial Technique with one strike, you could unleash two or even more, instantly determining superiority.

Of course, the Number Secret has a downside. Since it allows for simultaneous deployment of Martial Techniques, demonic energy consumption increases more rapidly. Thus, it’s suited for swift battle resolutions, but if there’s a continuous energy supply, it can be deployed indefinitely, unleashing terrifying combat power.

Delighted, Su Han quickly began training without hesitation.

With the experience of practicing other secret techniques, he quickly mastered the Number Secret.

”Great Luo Vajra Fist!”

”Thunderbolt Seven Absolute Slashes!”

Su Han gripped the Black Blade, launching both attacks simultaneously. Instantly, the Thunder Dragon Saber Aura and Golden Fist Blaze erupted, shattering a thousand-meter-high peak instantly. The combined power was extraordinarily frightening.

”The Number Secret is simply an against-the-sky secret technique. I have only just grasped it, not even reaching minor accomplishment. If practiced to the extreme, with all Martial Techniques and Divine Methods executed at once, what kind of power would such a strike have!”

Su Han’s eyes revealed surprise and full of anticipation for the Number Secret. At this stage, he could only deploy two Martial Techniques simultaneously. Upon reaching minor accomplishment, more techniques could be executed simultaneously.

The Ghostly Face Mask and Number Secret filled Su Han with joy, but his gains didn’t stop there. Suppressing his excitement, Su Han brought over the corpse of Dugu Imperial Son.

”Last time, when I devoured the Demon Bloodline of the Demon Swordsman, I saw the outline of the Second Divine Power. But due to the insufficient Demon Bloodline, I couldn’t awaken the Second Divine Power. Now, having Dugu Imperial Son, I am certain to awaken the Second Divine Power!”

Su Han also held high expectations for the Divine Power Technique. His First Divine Power was Blossoming with One Thought, and the Shore Flower Clone born from it greatly assisted him. If the Second Divine Power awakens, it will surely be extraordinary as well.

”Devour!”

Su Han’s eyes sparkled with brilliance as he quickly operated the Devouring Heaven Demonic Art to devour the corpse of Dugu Imperial Son.

Soon, Dugu Imperial Son’s corpse gradually disappeared, completely devoured and slowly refined by Su Han.

Within Su Han lies the necessity to devour more flesh and energy to progress in realms. Previously, he devoured the Heavenly Strategy Princess’s corpse and now Dugu Imperial Son’s corpse, yet showed no sign of breaking through to Saint Realm Second Layer, evidencing the increasing difficulty.

However, Su Han did not mind this. All his heart and spirit focused on the Demon Bloodline at this moment.

Su Han devoured the corpse, refining the Demon Bloodline. Gradually, he felt the Second Divine Power drawing ever closer to him.

”Great Dao Treasure Vase!”

Finally, the secret of his Second Divine Power surfaced in Su Han’s mind.

[Great Dao Treasure Vase: This is the vessel of the ”Dao”, capable of gathering and holding boundless power, suppressing all heavens and realms, possessing immortal might, and further capable of absorbing the world’s origin, accommodating oneself!]

Su Han understood what his Second Divine Power was, and its description left him breathless and incredulous.

Without hesitation, Su Han swiftly activated his Great Accomplished Holy Body, unleashing the Second Divine Power.

At this moment, Su Han’s demeanor transformed, radiating a peerless, sovereign presence.

Boom!

A world-shattering aura was emitted, black ripples spreading, where they reached, even time and space quaked, mountains and stones disintegrated, as if darkness descended.

Simultaneously, strands of demonic light shot out from Su Han’s heavenly spirit cap, quickly intertwining, ultimately forming a black vase above his head.

It appeared ancient and natural, of a simple design, giving off the feeling of the Great Dao appearing straight, yet seemingly capable of accommodating everything.

The Great Dao Treasure Vase is neither a Martial Technique nor a Divine Method, but a Divine Power Technique birthed within. Su Han merged his Way of the Universe with it, transforming the Great Dao Treasure Vase into the vessel of the Way of the Universe. The mouth of the vase was pitch black, as if it contained a universe inside, capable of devouring all and containing all.

”Devour!”

Su Han’s mind moved, prompting the Great Dao Treasure Vase. Immediately, a unique aura emanated from its mouth, devouring everything ahead—spiritual energy, medicinal scent, rock, spiritual medicine, water flow, space, time—a comprehensive devouring.

”This Great Dao Treasure Vase has two wonderful uses!”

Blessed with insight, Su Han discovered two methods of utilization, as the Great Dao Treasure Vase reversed, its mouth facing Su Han. Instantly, a pure energy cascaded from the vase’s mouth, infusing into Su Han’s body.

This pure energy wasn’t spiritual nor demonic, nor any energy Su Han recognized; it was the most primal energy that anyone could absorb effortlessly.

Su Han absorbed, causing demonic energy to surge dramatically, rising significantly.

This was boundless power, synthesized within the Great Dao Treasure Vase after devouring all.

Boom!

In the next moment, Su Han deployed the second method. The Great Dao Treasure Vase rotated, its mouth aimed at a thousand-meter mountain, immediately unleashing a boundless killing intent from its mouth, delivering a peerless strike, obliterating the mountain.

The thousand-meter mountain vanished—not collapsed or exploded, but utterly disappeared, as if erased from existence.

Boundless power!

Endless killing intent!

These are the two uses of the Great Dao Treasure Vase, powerful and terrifying!
