I Secretly Develop Myself In The Demon World - Chapter 765

Chapter 765: Chapter 401 Terrifying Corpse

Tianjue Province was an unknown distance from Dongchen State, Su Nan didn’t know, but he was sure it was absolutely an enormous distance, perhaps even separated by other states in between.

His Art of Fate could indeed act against targets tens of thousands of miles away, but the prerequisite was to establish causality with the other party.

Now he had the Fishing Rod of Fate, which indeed provided him a way to use it to establish causality, but to kill those people would require the consumption of Qi Luck.

Waste Qi Luck on a few clowns from the Destiny Society? Clearly not worth it.

“It seems, I have only one method to go to Tianjue Province,” Su Nan murmured.

It appeared to be the only method left.

With his current strength combined with foreknowledge and Thousand Changes and Ten Thousand Transmutations, passing through the Demon Sea to other states was not impossible.

If he chose to, he could completely have his avatar make the journey.

However, the avatar needed to control the Power of Heaven and Earth within the Mountain and Water Gourd to nurture the Jianmu Seed, and if it left, there would be no one to help with that for the next few days.

“Enough, whether the Jianmu is nurtured a day earlier or later doesn’t matter much, but knowing that the Destiny Society is plotting against me in the shadows, thinking about how to harm me, yet still ignoring it, that I cannot accept.”

As thoughts swirled, Su Nan did not hesitate too much and resolutely decided to send his avatar to Tianjue Province.

After all, during this time, the avatar has always been running errands for him, and the total time spent controlling the Power of Heaven and Earth to speed up the sprouting of the Jianmu Seed is just three or four days.

Given the situation, he did not mind waiting a bit longer.

Having made up his mind, he released his avatar.

He went over the plan with Avatar Wang Nan.

Avatar Wang Nan said, “Three days seems to be a bit too rushed.”

Su Nan nodded, “Indeed, if Tianjue Province is separated from Dongchen State by several states, it is absolutely impossible to make it there in three days.”

“I wonder if there are any teleport formations between the states?”

Thinking of this, he immediately shook his head. If there were teleport formations, there would be interactions between the Twelve States, and they wouldn’t present a state of severed contacts.

Of course, it doesn’t rule out the possibility that teleport formations really exist but are unusable for some reason.

“If there are no formations, there should at least be distributed maps or something similar; perhaps there are shortcuts?” he pondered another approach.

Regrettably, the Twelve States came into existence after the times of Ancient Times. Otherwise, with control over Luo Yu, this demon beast, as well as the Resentful demon in the Dragon-Slaying Sword, he could have gotten the answers from those two fellows.

If all else fails, he would have to visit Tiangong Pavilion.

Tiangong Pavilion was present throughout the Twelve States; if they claimed to be unaware of the road to Tianjue Province, that would simply be impossible.

He remembered, when he previously tried to purchase Mystical Techniques from Tiangong Pavilion using foreknowledge, he was informed that those items had all been transported to their headquarters.

“I wonder if the Great Princess has any information in this regard?” Su Nan planned to ask the Great Princess first.

He had abandoned the idea of seeking out the few Players and returned to Picking Stars Peak.

…

“You want to travel to other states?”

A moment later, Su Nan found the Great Princess, and upon hearing his question, she was slightly surprised.

“I don’t have a map of the Twelve States either, but as far as I know, the distribution of the Twelve States is in a ring pattern.”

“Heaven, Earth, Xuan, Yellow, Universe, Vastness—the states of Heaven and Earth are at the center of the Twelve States. Beyond Heaven and Earth, there are Xuan, Yellow, Universe, Vastness, six states, and beyond those, there are the Four States of East, West, South, and North.”

“From our Dongchen State to the west, across the Demon Sea, the first state to reach would be Huangjue Province, to the north is Northern Ice Province, and to the south is Southern Province.”

Distributed in a ring? Dongchen State at the outermost perimeter?

“So, you are saying, if I want to go to Tianjue Province, I need to pass through Huangjue Province first?” Su Nan said.

He wasn’t disappointed; it would be strange if Tianjue Province were right next to Dongchen State.

The situation was already favorable as he only needed to pass through one state to reach his destination, rather than several.

The Great Princess said, “Theoretically, that’s the case, but it’s very difficult in practice. The areas of the Demon Sea between each state are vast and are home to a large number of instinctual Resentful demons.”

“No, it would be more appropriate to call them wild beasts. Those demons possess only the instincts of wild animals, and our demon clan would be attacked just the same upon entering.”

“Even emperor-level powerhouses, once targeted by Resentful demons, would attract swarms of them. The Resentful demons are inexhaustible, and in the end, even an emperor-level powerhouse would only exhaust their strength and be overwhelmed to death.”

Su Nan nodded, having heard of the dangers of the Demon Sea, he was prepared mentally.

“But what if one is lucky and doesn’t get targeted by the Resentful demons?”

With Thousand Changes and Ten Thousand Transmutations, he was confident he wouldn’t be targeted by demons and that having an unobstructed path was not a problem. His primary concern was the distance of the journey.

The Great Princess looked at Su Nan strangely, as if thinking of the various divine abilities he possessed, she did not ask further and shook her head, saying:

“I haven’t been to the Demon Sea, and I don’t know how vast it actually is.”

After a pause, she added, “However, I once read in ancient books that 500 years ago, an emperor-level powerhouse from Southern Province successfully passed through the Demon Sea to our state.”

“That Powerful Person was very lucky and did not encounter any obstacles. Even so, it took five days to travel.”

“Five days?” Su Nan’s heart sank.

It would take five days to reach the next state, and by the time he reached Tianjue Province, it would probably be too late!

Even if the distance from Dongchen State to Huangjue Province was not as far as that to Southern Province, it would still take several days.

And from Huangjue Province to Tianjue Province, it might already be a week later by then.
