Chapter 625: Chapter 333: Rapid Expansion
“Du Qiyuan, I almost forgot about this guy!”
Su Nan frowned. Du Qiyuan would enter the Land of the Lost after the blood sacrifice ritual tomorrow. Although there was still some time between now and then, it wasn’t enough for Luo Yu and the Great Princess to regain their strength.
Du Qiyuan was also at the Emperor-level and possessed a fleshly body, which made him undoubtedly stronger than the Demonic Thought in the Storage Ring. Even if Luo Yu and the Great Princess were in their prime, they would stand no chance against him.
He had to leave before Du Qiyuan found him.
“The prediction did not specify the exact time of Du Qiyuan’s appearance, but based on the consumed prediction times, he should enter the Land of the Lost around eleven or twelve o’clock tomorrow night.”
“By that time, more than ten hours would have passed since the end of the blood sacrifice ritual, which should be enough time to modify the avatar.”
“Moreover, if I hide, Du Qiyuan probably wouldn’t find me that easily.”
Black Demon Lake had an abundance of Demonic Qi. According to the original plan, after completing the blood sacrifice ritual, he would send the avatar to Black Demon Lake to change its form using the Demonic Qi.
However, from the current situation, the time seemed a bit tight.
But it didn’t matter. At worst, he would complete the “Path of the Lord” Task and leave directly, then find a place with dense Demonic Qi in Dongchen State to modify the avatar later.
He checked the Points Store again.
Since the Soul-absorbing Lamp worked on Offering God Demons and Demonic Thought as well, there was no hesitation in exchanging it directly.
As his 350,000 points were consumed, the Soul-absorbing Lamp appeared in his Personal Space.
It was a lamp that resembled a glaze cup, with a light green body and a lotus-shaped top, but no wick in the middle.
Su Nan took it out and tried to activate it.
In an instant, a powerful suction force emerged from the Soul-absorbing Lamp. His Power of Divine Soul was almost depleted in the blink of an eye, and a small, weak flame rose suddenly within the lamp.
Facing this flame, Su Nan felt a surge in his heart, as if even a touch could ignite his Divine Soul.
“No wonder it’s an Ancient Treasure!” Su Nan marveled. He had a feeling that if someone used the Soul-absorbing Lamp against him, he would be absolutely defenseless.
But this was not the full power of the Soul-absorbing Lamp. With his current Divine Soul Power, he could only barely activate it. To unleash its full power, the Great Princess would have to do it for now.
The Mountain and Water Gourd appeared in his hand, and with a thought, the Great Princess appeared before his eyes.
Su Nan handed the Soul-absorbing Lamp to the Great Princess and told her how to use it.
“An Ancient Treasure? Soul-absorbing Lamp?”
The Great Princess looked at the ancient lamp in her hand, which was as smooth as jade, her eyes filled with astonishment.
Despite experiencing Su Nan’s various wonders, seeing him pull out an Ancient Treasure still felt incredible.
However, that was nothing compared to her shock when she saw Su Nan release Luo Yu from the Cosmic Ring and hand him the Demon Sword.
“Next, I need you to help me severely injure the Resentful Demon in a Divine Weapon…”
Su Nan explained the matter of the Dragon-Slaying Sword.
He had initially planned to control the Resentful Demon using the God Soul Seed to gain full control of the Dragon-Slaying Sword, but now he had changed his mind.
The reason was simple. Controlling the Resentful Demon with the God Soul Seed would either require waiting for the seed to slowly take root and sprout on its own or using Qi Luck to accelerate its growth.
Both options were unfeasible.
The stronger the Divine Soul of the target, the longer it would take for the God Soul Seed to take root. With the Resentful Demon’s strength, it would be impossible to control it without at least a year and a half.
He couldn’t afford to wait.
And using Qi Luck to accelerate its growth was not an option either.
Previously, controlling Luo Yu, a Peak King-level Demon Thought, had consumed more than 1,200 points of Qi Luck. Who knew how many Qi Luck points would be needed to control an Emperor-level being?
That would be a bottomless pit.
Although severely injuring the Resentful Demon would only temporarily grant him control of the Dragon-Slaying Sword and significantly weaken its power, it was the only way to quickly obtain the sword.
As a Divine Weapon, even with its power greatly reduced, the Dragon-Slaying Sword would undoubtedly surpass ordinary weapons.
A forced melon wouldn’t be sweet, but it could quench thirst.
“Perhaps injuring the Resentful Demon would make it easier for the God Soul Seed to take root and sprout.”
He still had many predictions for today, so he didn’t waste time and predicted again.
This time, 30 prediction times were consumed, an increase of 5 compared to the last time.
…
[With the cooperation of the Great Princess and Luo Yu, the Resentful Demon within the Dragon-Slaying Sword was severely injured and could no longer control the sword. You successfully gained control of the Dragon-Slaying Sword.]
[Six hours later, you arrive at the Daxuan Royal City and lie in wait, awaiting the opportunity to strike at the Offering God Demon in the Daxuan Royal Palace.]
[Twelve hours later, the Divine Aperture Stone within your Divine Soul successfully nurtured a Second Divine Soul.]
[Sixteen hours later, you control the avatar to perform the seventh blood sacrifice ritual, knowing that the consciousness of the Offering God Demon will awaken during this ritual.]
[As you expected, midway through the blood sacrifice ritual, you suddenly detected a powerful Divine Soul descending, attempting to enter the Divine Soul of your avatar. You knew that the Offering God Demon had awakened and decisively ordered Luo Yu and the Great Princess to attack the Great Temple.]
[As the Great Temple was attacked, the Offering God Demon’s attention was diverted, and the Divine Soul Power entering your Divine Soul withdrew accordingly.]
[You let Luo Yu and the Great Princess entangle the Offering God Demon, and after the end of the blood sacrifice ritual, you chose to hunt the Offering God Demon down once and for all.]
[Congratulations, with the cooperation of the Great Princess and Luo Yu, you successfully hunted down the Offering God Demon and gained control of several Paper Puppet Demons.]
