I Secretly Develop Myself In The Demon World - Chapter 855

Chapter 855: 446

The Heavenly Race could deal with him through a Spatial Channel that had not yet been opened, which evidently required a price to be paid, otherwise, in the foreknowledge, the first two times he approached the Passage, the other party would have already made their move.

Although he did not know exactly how the Heavenly Race had acted or what means they had used to kill him with one strike, as long as that method wasn’t available for unlimited use, he would have the opportunity to avoid it.

Foreknowledge began again.

In this foreknowledge, he used the Across the Heavens Shift at the very last moment, attempting to avoid that strike.

Although he successfully dodged the blow for the first time, evading death, the attack did not dissipate. Instead, it locked onto him and struck at him again.

He tried to use the Thousand Changes and Ten Thousand Transmutations to alter his aura and attempted to run the Operation Destiny Wheel Sutra to switch roles, but none of it helped; it was as if the attack had eyes, fixated on him.

Eventually, after exhausting the number of Across the Heavens Shifts, he was slain.

“The attack doesn’t disappear unless the target is killed?”

Su Nan’s heart sank; this meant that the attack could only be blocked head-on, exhausting its Strength, and could not be avoided.

He had thought that if couldn’t withstand it, he would just quit the game.

Now, it seemed that quitting the game might not be effective either.

If the attack would dissipate on its own after failing to find its target, that would be fine, but if it did not dissipate for a long time, then he couldn’t even enter the game.

And the Passage would not give him time to wait.

Having no other choice, Su Nan had to predict again.

The third foreknowledge began.

In this Premonition, he retained a large portion of the Strength from the Heavenly Demon Bone Umbrella to block that bizarre final strike.

The result let him down; he died again this time!

The fourth time foreknowledge began.

This time he tried to use the newly acquired Mirror Flower, Water Moon at the last moment to defend.

And sure enough, the Mirror Flower, Water Moon, a Divine ability, proved its uniqueness. As his body transitioned from solid to ethereal, the attack lost its target like a headless fly.

“This transition from solid to ethereal seems not as simple as it appears on the surface!” Su Nan’s eyes brightened.

He had originally thought that the Mirror Flower, Water Moon was just capable of blocking most attacks, but now it seemed there was more to it.

Perhaps in the process of reverting from ethereal to solid, it also concealed something of his.

Unfortunately, the Mirror Flower, Water Moon was only at the first level and could only last three breaths; eventually, as its effect wore off, he was still killed.

Su Nan wasn’t reconciled and foresaw again; this time, he tried to use the Time of Seasons Sutra’s rejuvenation at the instant he was about to be struck, to revert his state to one minute ago.

But the result was still a failure.

“Even the Power of Time is useless, then what exactly is that method?” Su Nan’s face turned grim as he quickly considered the methods at his disposal.

After five consecutive foresights, each foresight consuming twenty chances, he had exhausted one hundred foreknowledge times and now only had enough left for one last foreknowledge.

“I wonder if the Substitute Strawman can withstand that strike?” Su Nan thought of the Substitute Strawman.

The Substitute Strawman could withstand a fatal attack once, and apparently, there was no limit; it could even block a strike from a Saint Level expert of the Heavenly Race.

However, as soon as this thought arose, he shook his head and abandoned the idea.

Leaving aside whether the Substitute Strawman could withstand it, even if it could, he was not willing to use it.

The Substitute Strawman was currently the only thing that could save his life in reality, and once used, it would be gone.

Even if he were to use the Perfect Death Resurrection Card, he wasn’t willing to use the Substitute Strawman unless absolutely necessary, as it should not be wasted.

“If the Substitute Strawman won’t do, then what about the essence and blood of the Saint Level Heavenly Race?” Su Nan thought of the drop of Saint Level essence and blood of the Heavenly Race he had on him.

That drop of Heavenly Race blood itself did not have the strength to block attacks, but that drop of essence and blood could grant him the ability of Destiny Grafting.

If he used Destiny Grafting to graft the fate of several Emperor-level beings, could he transfer the Strike’s power onto others?

Thinking of this, Su Nan’s eyes brightened.

“This seems feasible!”

He immediately took action, heading straight for the ancient city of the Celestial Progeny he had visited before.

While the peak Emperor-level experts of the Celestial Progeny and Divine Descendant Clan had gone to guard the Spatial Channel, it was impossible for all Emperor-grade to have left, and surely some Emperors would have stayed behind.

He just had to capture those Emperor-level beings.

Eight hours later.

Su Nan left an ancient city of the Divine Descendant Clan.

During this time, he took consecutive action against several ancient cities, and now in his possession were five Emperors, four at Early Stage of Emperor Level and one at Middle-stage Emperor Grade.

But that was still not enough!

“That attack likely carries the essence of fate, and these ordinary Emperor-grade beings would have difficulty withstanding such Strength.”

“Demon beasts! The avatar must capture two Emperor-level Demonic Beasts!”

The fate of demon beasts was tied to the Demon Abyss. He could use the Art of Fate against demon beasts, but seemingly, the influence of fate’s power on them was notably smaller than it was on Humans and the demon clan, something he had discovered long ago.

Once he tried to use the Life and Death Mirror against a demonic beast, but there was no trace of the demon on the mirror at all.

“Just right, the second thread of Innate Demon Qi within the avatar is close to being fully integrated. Perhaps it will attract a demonic beast.”

With a flip of his hand, the Fishing Rod of Fate appeared, ready for action.

…

“The True Body really knows how to keep me busy.”

In the land of Ground Jue.

The avatar was operating the Xuanhuang Refining Qi Furnace, refining essence and blood while silently lamenting.

The past two days had been hectic, as he needed to hunt demons and refine essence and blood to exchange for Demon Power, as well as to look for demon beasts and cultivate the Heavenly Demon Devouring Divine Technique.
