A trace of apology flashed in the owner’s eyes, and he hurriedly explained, "Rest assured, Young Master. The contents recorded in these books are extraordinarily miraculous and will leave you completely absorbed. They will definitely not disappoint you." 𝗳𝚛𝗲𝕖𝕨𝕖𝗯𝚗𝚘𝕧𝕖𝗹.𝗰𝗼𝕞

The Primordial Heavenly Demon Ranking! Looking at the large characters on the cover of the topmost yellowed book, Adam’s pupils slightly contracted, and he drew in a sharp breath of cold air.

What a massive boast! Not only did it record Heavenly Demons, but it actually ranked them, distinguishing the strong from the weak!

In the Primordial Era, the Dao of Demons flourished, the Demon Race suppressed the Human Race and became the head of the myriad races.

At that time, more than half the territory of the Mysterious Yellow Great World was occupied by the Demon Race.

The Demon Race had prospered to the absolute extreme. Great Demons were as common as dogs, Demon Lords walked everywhere, and even Demon Kings could not make it to the grand stage. Only Demon Venerables could barely be considered experts.

Heavenly Demons were existences above Demon Venerables, surpassing Heaven and Earth Deities.

In the entire Demon Race, aside from the co-ruler of the demons, the Demon Emperor, the Heavenly Demons were the absolute most powerful.

A single Heavenly Demon could overturn mountains and rivers, and capsize heaven and earth.

Their divine might was unfathomable, and their demonic power reached the heavens.

Every millennium, the Demon Race would birth at least a few Heavenly Demons, and at most over a dozen. Heavenly Demons had exceedingly long lifespans, some powerful ones could live for tens of thousands of years.

Throughout the entire Primordial Era, the Demon Race accumulated tens of thousands of Heavenly Demons.

It was precisely because of this pinnacle combat power that the Demon Race could firmly sit on the throne as the number one race in the Mysterious Yellow Great World.

Unfortunately, later on, a heaven-and-earth-shattering great war wiped out almost the entire Primordial Demon Race. Even the Demon Emperor died in battle, and tens of thousands of Heavenly Demons spilled their blood on the ancient demon battlefield.

The remaining members were scattered across the Mysterious Yellow Great World. The Southern Demon Domain was formed precisely because of this great tribulation.

From then on, the Demon Race declined, completely losing its former glory. Even Heavenly Demons became mere legends.

Today, although the Demon Race no longer possessed the might of the Primordial Era, the power of a Heavenly Demon was unquestionable. Among tens of thousands of Heavenly Demons, there were naturally stronger and weaker ones.

However, only the co-ruler of the demons, the Demon Emperor, should have been qualified to judge such existences.

He did not know who compiled this Heavenly Demon Ranking, but their tone was incredibly arrogant to dare critique such entities.

Adam opened the withered, yellow ancient book. The first thing that caught his eye was an ancient painting.

A demonic monkey stood upright between heaven and earth, its eyes vibrant and untamed, looking as if it wanted to trample the entire world beneath its feet.

The painting was incredibly lifelike, exuding waves of antiquity and giving off a profound sense of age.

Adam did not let his gaze linger on the painting for too long. He shifted his eyes to the text and commentary below.

The Six-Eared Macaque. Born at the very tail-end of the Primordial Era, by which time the Primordial Demon Race had already been destroyed. Birthed and nurtured by heaven and earth, it was a mutant species of the world.

Since youth, it consumed the spiritual energy of heaven and earth and absorbed the essence of the sun and moon.

After growing slightly older, its innate divine ability awakened: Omniscience of All Things, granting it the ability to see through all karma and cause-and-effect of all things in heaven and earth.

Following the awakening of its divine ability, the Six-Eared Macaque’s strength advanced by leaps and bounds.

The belligerence in its heart grew increasingly vigorous, to the point where it actually wanted to challenge the myriad races of the world.

Relying on Omniscience of All Things, the Six-Eared Macaque could often predict the enemy’s moves during battle and seize the initiative. Even when it was not the stronger party, it always managed to have the last laugh.

Sustaining war with war, the Six-Eared Macaque fought tens of thousands of battles against the myriad races, its strength growing ever more formidable.

During this time, it angered supreme existences on several occasions.

Yet it could always rely on Omniscience of All Things to escape disaster, ultimately stepping into the realm of a Heavenly Demon through endless combat.

After the destruction of the Primordial Demon Race, the Six-Eared Macaque was one of the few supreme existences among the demons who managed to become a Heavenly Demon.

After it became a Heavenly Demon, the Demon Race grew increasingly powerful under its leadership, faintly showing signs of reviving the might of the Primordial Demon Race.

The growing power of the Demon Race provoked the dissatisfaction of the major factions.

The bloody storm the demons stirred up once again finally drew the ire of the contemporary Lord Buddha.

The Lord Buddha personally stepped down from his Buddhist Lotus and walked alone into the Demon Race.

No matter how profoundly miraculous Omniscience of All Things was, it was shattered by the Lord Buddha’s supreme Dharma, and the macaque was ultimately suppressed and slain.

Although the Six-Eared Macaque was a Heavenly Demon, its battle record was poor. However, considering it once had the momentum to revive the Primordial Demon Race, it is ranked thirty-sixth on the Heavenly Demon Ranking.

[You have observed the life of the Six-Eared Macaque. You were very earnest. You have activated God-Tier Comprehension.]

[Your comprehension is God-Tier. You have comprehended the innate divine ability Omniscience of All Things.]

I actually comprehended an innate divine ability!

Hearing the system notification in his mind, stormy seas surged in Adam’s heart.

Divine abilities were the combat methods of Heaven and Earth Deities.

However, some peerless monstrous talents could still glimpse a fraction of a divine ability’s profound mysteries while at the Mortal Supreme realm.

Even just a fraction was enough to make them invincible among their peers.

Within the same realm, only other peerless monstrous talents who had also comprehended the mysteries of a divine ability could contend with them.
