I Secretly Develop Myself In The Demon World

Chapter 824: Chapter 430 Heavenly Demon’s Strength_2

“After several attempts, you finally begin to grasp what this power is; it is the power of space. With the augmentation of spatial power, you find an opportunity to escape.”]

“You do not plan to run away; you know that to pass this second trial of the Heavenly Demon, you must find a way to kill the old man and attempt to obtain the method to rescue your Heavenly Demon mentor from him.”]

“Three minutes later, you still haven’t managed to kill the old man, and instead, because of constant use of spatial power, you are drained of energy and the old man finds an opportunity.”]

“You died.”]

“Spatial power? The Heavenly Demon actually possesses the power of space.”

Su Nan is slightly taken aback, then his eyes light up. In the trial, he is the Heavenly Demon, and the stronger the Heavenly Demon’s power, the greater the help to him.

It’s just a pity that he doesn’t understand spatial power, and even though the Heavenly Demon possesses it, he can only use it in the most superficial way.

If he were a real Heavenly Demon, he would undoubtedly be able to master it proficiently, and there might really be a chance to kill the old man.

Foreknowledge continues.

Soon, the information in the foreknowledge made his eyes light up again.

…

“After countless attempts, you surprisingly discover that the second type of power heals your injuries in a strange way.”]

“On close observation, you realize that this power doesn’t heal your wounds but instead, in a way that you can’t understand, instantly restores your body to the state before it was injured.”]

“Three minutes later, you are defeated by the old man, and you’re gravely injured.”]

“Before dying, you realize that this second type of power, which can only be used once, is likely related to the power of time.”]

“Time! The Heavenly Demon actually holds power over both space and time!”

Su Nan is amazed and finally understands why the Heavenly Demon, even at the peak king-level realm, dared to seek revenge on the mid-stage emperor-level old man.

The racial talent that can command heavenly tribulation is one thing, but to also simultaneously possess the terrifying powers of space and time!

Space and time, these two powers are nothing short of miraculous, completely independent of the power of fate.

“With control over both powers, the Heavenly Demon’s chances of killing the old man are actually quite significant.”

“But since the real Heavenly Demon did not succeed, doesn’t this suggest that the mid-stage emperor-level old fellow is not as simple as he seems on the surface?”

With that thought, the joy on Su Nan’s face vanished, and his heart sunk once more.

Without a doubt, to pass the second trial, the key was definitely with the old man!

The old man must die.

Next, he predicted the outcome over and over again.

He continually familiarized himself with the Heavenly Demon’s powers, trying to find a way to kill the old man.

The gap between king-level and emperor-level was huge, not to mention that the old man was at mid-stage emperor-level.

Even with many tricks up his sleeve and the strength of three roles to support him, Su Nan could only handle a mid-level emperor at best.

The Heavenly Demon possessed strong time and space powers, but Su Nan was not the Heavenly Demon and couldn’t unleash the true might of those two powers.

Foreknowledge times kept depleting, each time offering only one chance.

This was not to say that the start of the second trial was guaranteed death; knowing the power the Heavenly Demon held, if he wished, he could escape the situation completely.

During this period, he even tried escaping first and after getting familiar with the body’s power, then think of a way to kill the old man.

He didn’t escape because he still wanted to attempt to kill the old man.

That said, after over ten unsuccessful predictions, he gave up and decisively chose to flee and then think of a method afterward.

This approach was used four times in a row, only to end in disappointment.

In the foreknowledge, he successfully evaded the old man using spatial power and even returned to the Heavenly Demon’s Yao Court.

Through some ancient books in the Yao Court, Su Nan essentially mastered the powers within the Heavenly Demon’s body, even learning how to attack enemies using powers of space and time.

However, just when he thought he could definitely deal with the old man, he found that the old fellow had disappeared, and no matter what method Su Nan used in the prediction, he couldn’t find him.

Clearly, upon seeing that the Heavenly Demon wielded spatial power, the old fellow became afraid and ran off to hide somewhere.

Eventually, in the foreknowledge, the mentor of the Heavenly Demon died, and the trial was a failure.

After four consecutive predictions, each consuming 20 foreknowledge opportunities, Su Nan had lost a day.

This meant that the time allotted for the second trial was still one day.

If the old man wasn’t killed within a day and a method to rescue the Heavenly Demon Master wasn’t found, the trial would be considered a failure.

“We can’t let that old guy get away!”

“Searching for the antidote to save the Heavenly Demon Master is just incidental; killing that old man is of utmost importance.”

“Once he gets away, failing the second trial wouldn’t be any different, as that old man is at a mid-stage Emperor grade. If he truly wanted to escape, even if we knew his final whereabouts, he couldn’t be caught in one day.”

“There’s only one chance, success or die trying!”

Now, Su Nan finally understood the crux of this trial.

As for the Ancient Wilderness Relic, Su Nan had given up.

After more than ten foreknowledge attempts, there was no progress. Whenever he approached the resentful spirits of the Ancient Wilderness Sect’s race, he would be discovered and then attacked.

That was a presence comparable to a Saint Level. After replenishing enough essence and blood, the Heavenly Demon Bone Umbrella could withstand an attack, but only just.

“The items on the Ancient Wilderness Sect Leader will have to be given up for now. I can only wait until I’m stronger to go after it.”

…

[Congratulations, you’ve completed the daily task “Passing the First Challenge of the Heavenly Demon” and the award of 60 points of Demon Power has been granted.]

[Current available demon power: 860 points]

An hour later, at the Demon Clan Ancestral Land, within the stone hall of the Heavenly Demon inheritance, in a stone room, Su Nan opened his eyes, and his gaze fell upon a stone door in front of him, engraved with a large ‘二’ character.

In front of him, there was also a Jade Bottle floating in the air.

He grabbed it and, after a glance, stowed it away.

This was indeed a drop of King-level Ancient Demon Essence Blood, and not of ordinary quality, but now was not the time to study these things.

“The first challenge has been passed.” Even though he knew this would be the outcome, Su Nan still breathed a sigh of relief.

The trials of the Heavenly Demon were somewhat strange; inside, the power of the game was completely blocked. He suspected that if he died there, it would be a true death.

Looking at the time, it was just Midnight in reality, and a new day was beginning, with task refresh occurring.

At the same time, another figure appeared in the stone room.

It was a young man with a scholarly appearance, yet he hailed from the morning star beast race with the foreknowledge ability—it was Xing Yi.

“Lang Wu, brother?”

“You actually passed the trial too!” Xing Yi was startled to see Su Nan, then surprise flashed in his eyes.

Clearly, he had not expected not only for Su Nan to pass the trial but also to be the first to come out.

Su Nan was also surprised and suddenly thought, could this guy’s abilities be used in the trial?

But he immediately shook his head inwardly. If the morning star beast race’s Talent worked during the trials, that clan would have likely obtained the inheritance years ago.

In the brief moment these thoughts flickered through his mind, two more figures appeared.

A man and a woman, namely Long Yunhan from the Silver Dragon clan and Luan Qingyu from the Crystal Feather Phoenix Clan.

Upon seeing Su Nan, both were surprised, and all three exchanged looks, each revealing suspicion in their eyes.

“It seems you’ve hidden quite a few things from me!” A chill flickered in Su Nan’s eyes.

He naturally knew what they were thinking; the fact that they could emerge indicated they knew the detailed method to clear the trial, they knew what would happen if they followed the route on the map, and how to deal with it.

“Forgive me, brother Lang Wu, you’ve also made it out, haven’t you?” Long Yunhan said with a smile, showing no intention to explain.

At this moment, Xing Yi quickly changed the subject: “Long Yunmu and He Wushuang haven’t come out yet. It seems they’ve encountered trouble.”

The fact that they hadn’t appeared yet despite time in the stone hall being fairly consistent, and with the trial lasting no more than one day, the implications were clear to them all.

Luan Qingyu said, “Let’s wait a bit more, perhaps there’s still hope?”

The three swiftly deflected and offered no explanation for why they kept information from Su Nan. They knew the more they tried to clarify, the worse it would become; silence was the best approach.

Su Nan glanced coldly at them but did not trouble them, knowing they were about to enter the second challenge. He was curious to see how many of them would survive.

Ignoring them, he turned his attention to the Daily Task.
