I Secretly Develop Myself In The Demon World-Chapter 657 - 348: Ten Thousand Demon Ridge_2

Chapter 657: Chapter 348: Ten Thousand Demon Ridge_2

One thing was certain: the triggering of the mainline quest was related to his strength. His strength made it impossible for him to trigger some simple tasks, and even if he managed to, they would be high-difficulty tasks.

However, this was exactly what he wanted. He didn’t want to attempt low-difficulty tasks even if they were triggered.

“I still have two Main Quest Replication Cards on me, but it’s a shame that there are no tasks worth duplicating.”

“Today is the last day of the Twelve Zodiac Palace, and we won’t know if the rewards for the top three places this time include Main Quest Replication Cards.”

The starlight sprinkled down, and the bright moon was beautifully illuminated in the night sky. Checking the time, it was already midnight in-game.

There were still seven or eight hours left until the opening of the Twelve Zodiac Palace.

In the rankings, Zhang Yang and Wang Nan led the way.

Lang Thirteen, because he didn’t enter the Twelve Zodiac Palace twice, scored 100,000 fewer points than Zhang Yang and Wang Nan’s characters.

Despite that, he still had tens of thousands more points than the fourth-ranked law-controlling Kaisel, who had a wide range of offensive abilities!

Without a doubt, even if all the players from the Twelve States participated this time, the top three would still be his.

The Ten Thousand Demon Ridge was vast.

If viewed from a map, the Ten Thousand Demon Ridge was shaped like a crescent. The outer curve of the crescent bordered the legendary Demon Sea, while the inner curve connected to three of the nine districts that the humans once controlled.

Wansheng State was not too far from Ten Thousand Demon Ridge. Just three hours later, Su Nan had already arrived at the edge of Ten Thousand Demon Ridge.

Standing on a mountain peak, he surveyed the endless mountain range from afar.

Ancient trees towered to the sky, and continuous mountain ranges stretched out. In the distance, a tremendous peak piercing the sky could be seen.

Great Princess, standing beside Su Nan, looked at the towering peak and said, “That’s Giant Pinnacle, ranking tenth among the top ten peaks of Ten Thousand Demon Ridge. It’s the territory of the Golden Bone Ape clan, which was once rumored to be one of the Ancient Hundred Clans.”

“Golden Bone Ape?”

Su Nan nodded and searched his memory for information about the Golden Bone Ape clan.

Golden Bone Ape, ranked 73rd among the ancient demon races, was even more advanced than Skywolf Clan. Named for its golden crystal-like bones, the Golden Bone Ape possessed formidable strength and stamina, and it was a renowned master of attrition.

This species had a talent that allowed them to store their excess strength in their bones during ordinary times. Once they encountered a powerful foe, they could continuously release the stored strength in their bones, multiplying their power.

This process could last as short as ten-plus minutes or as long as several hours. Battling against such an existence, if one could not kill it quickly, they would be exhausted to death.

Su Nan looked at the towering peak and said, “There are ten such peaks, and each one should be occupied by a powerful demon clan, right?”

Great Princess nodded: “The nine demon clans occupying the peaks ranked tenth to second are the strongest demon clans today.”

“Nine clans? No demon clan occupies the highest peak?”

“The highest peak is called Picking Stars; it is the residence of Demon Monarch!”

“Moreover, it is our holy land for the demon clan. The Heavenly Demon Hall is built at the foot of that peak, and the Heavenly Demon Grand Ceremony is held there every time.”

Demon Monarch!

Su Nan suddenly understood why other demon clans wouldn’t dare to occupy a peak occupied by Demon Monarch, but at the same time, his heart sank.

The Heavenly Demon Grand Ceremony was actually held under the watchful eye of Demon Monarch, which undoubtedly posed some risk to him. fɾēewebnσveℓ.com

Fortunately, thanks to the Life Wheel Scripture and the Thousand Changes and Ten Thousand Transmutations techniques, even Saint Level experts wouldn’t be able to detect any abnormalities, so he wasn’t too worried.

“What realm is Demon Monarch?” Su Nan asked curiously.

Without a doubt, the twelve Demon Emperors who ruled the Twelve States in this world had the highest realm. If it were in ancient times, these beings would have been at least God Level.

However, in this era when the Heavenly and Earthly Vitality was cut off, he did not think there were any God Level beings.

In fact, Su Nan even doubted that there were any Saint-level beings; otherwise, with their strength, they might have exterminated human clan long ago.

However, Great Princess’s words made him doubt that.

Great Princess shook her head and said, “Demon Monarch is incredibly mysterious. No one knows his specific strength, but it’s certain that our Demon Monarch in Dongchen State has been alive for tens of thousands of years.”

“There’s a rumor that in the ancient times, Lord Demon Monarch was already a King-level powerhouse.”

A great monster that survived from ten thousand years ago?

Could it be that the Demon Emperor was a god-level expert?

Su Nan’s heart sank.

Not to mention the fact that the Demon Emperor was already a king-level powerhouse in ancient times, even if he was born during the destruction of the ancient world, it would have been ten thousand years until now.

Over ten thousand years, even a pig could cultivate to the Saint level, and even God level is not impossible.

The only one he had seen from ancient times to now was the fierce beast in the depths of the Divine Ruins.

Fierce beasts have a long lifespan, but, like the Auspicious Beasts, they have nearly extinct in ancient times. Su Nan even doubts that his Dragon Turtle and that fierce beast in the Divine Ruins are the only ones left.

Demon Emperors are different. There is a Demon Emperor in each of the Twelve States. If every Demon Emperor is an ancient monster that has survived, it would be terrifying.

Fortunately, the Great Princess’s following words relieved him.

“Although the Demon Emperor has existed for tens of thousands of years, he has spent most of the time in deep sleep.”

Most of the time in deep sleep?

Su Nan suddenly realized. If this were the case, it could explain everything.

As far as he knew, there were many secret techniques in the ancient world that could greatly prolong life by sleeping or self-sealing, but these methods had many drawbacks.

During the sleep, many of them would not only not increase their realm but even need to sacrifice their realm and strength to maintain their sleep and self-sealing.

“How many Demon Clans in Ten Thousand Demon Ridge have a Demon Emperor?” Su Nan asked again.

“At least two or three hundred demon clans have a king-level expert! And the demon clans with the emperor-level powerhouse, there are only more than thirty, most of them are the ancient Hundred Clans.”

“More than thirty!” Su Nan was shocked.

Even if there is only one emperor-level powerhouse among the Demon Clans, that’s still more than thirty of them.

And besides the Demon Emperors who belong to the various races, there are also some special characters, like his cheap big brother, Hu Xiaotian.

“I don’t know where Hu Xiaotian is now.”

In order to qualify for the Heavenly Demon Grand Ceremony, one must first obtain a quota. Although Hu Xiaotian agreed to give his quota to Su Nan, he still doesn’t know the specific procedure and needs to find Hu Xiaotian first.

With a slight movement in his heart, he tried to sense the connection between him and the few demon beasts on which he imposed the Bloodline Servant Imprint.

When he left before, he asked Old Goat and several other demon beasts to follow Hu Xiaotian. As long as he found the few demon beasts, he could naturally find Hu Xiaotian.

Unfortunately, perhaps the distance was too far, he couldn’t feel the connection with those demon beasts.

“According to previous records, the Heavenly Demon Grand Ceremony will last for ten days, and for the first three days, the major Demon Clans will select geniuses under the age of thirty from within the clan. Of course, this is only for the big clans, and there is no need for the small clans.”

“On the fourth day, the Heavenly Demon Grand Ceremony officially begins, and most of the demon emperors will participate in the ceremony to worship the Demon Ancestor. In this process, participants often gain unexpected benefits.”

“For example, getting blessings from the Demon Ancestor, awakening some bloodline talents, and even some demon beasts being able to progress further. This day, the Demon Emperor might also wake up.”

“After that, starting from the fifth day, the geniuses from various clans who have obtained the qualifications to participate in the Heavenly Demon Grand Ceremony will be selected again. Only those who rank in the top 100 will have the opportunity to enter the Heavenly Demon Hall and awaken some bloodline talents there.”

“Those who rank in the top twenty will have the opportunity to enter the ancestral lands, where there are many treasures and inheritances left by the ancient Demon Emperors.”

“Only those who achieve the top ten will have the qualifications to enter the real land of inheritance, where the inheritances left behind by the Demon Saints or even the Demon Gods are located.”

The Great Princess explained the specific rules of the Heavenly Demon Grand Ceremony and the benefits they could obtain.

After listening, Su Nan’s eyes flickered with excitement.

The inheritances left by the Demon Saints and Demon Gods could be imagined to contain many great treasures. perhaps king-level ancient demon essence blood or emperor-level ancient demon essence blood might exist.

And you can also awaken racial talents. Any one of these benefits would make this trip completely worthwhile.

Su Nan didn’t know, but just as he and the Great Princess entered Ten Thousand Demon Ridge,

Busan County, another place adjacent to Ten Thousand Demon Ridge, a dozen young men and women gazed at the endless mountain ranges without any hesitation and quickly entered.

If Su Nan were here, he would immediately recognize that these people were players, and not ordinary players!
