Chapter 577: Demonization, Stripping

Within the cave.

Xiao Xun sighed and said, “You are right. The demons in the outer sea, under the command of the fifth-rank Cangming demon lord, were preparing to launch another large-scale beast tide to attack the human race not long ago.”

“It is probably due to the impact of the last Keel Reef incident.”

“Demon Lord Cangming, is that the fifth-level demon cultivator who controls the outer sea?” Qin Ming asked immediately.

Xiao Xun poured him another cup of spiritual tea and explained:
“That’s right. This fifth-level demon king is extremely brutal. He was at the peak of the fifth-level early stage thousands of years ago. He is probably even stronger now.”

“Its bloodline can be traced back to the ancient vicious beast ‘Soul-Eating Beast’, which is a species born in the blood catastrophe of the outer sea. It is said to be the offspring of a great demon and the blood of a fallen demon. Its strength is far beyond the reach of ordinary divine power.”

“This beast has been entrenched in the outer sea for thousands of years, and many human Yuanying have fallen into its mouth.”

She paused for a moment, then continued, “The Guihai Monster Ruins you are going to this time happens to be near the lair of this deep-sea overlord.”

“If we go there rashly, it is very likely to alarm the Cangming Demon Lord.”

When Qin Ming heard this, his brows immediately wrinkled into a shape of a “川” (river).

When he finally fled the open sea with Xiao Xun, he briefly encountered the fifth-level Cangming Demon Lord.

The aura emanating from this demon alone is definitely not comparable to that of an ordinary divine demon.

Moreover, when this monster goes crazy, it will eat its fellow monsters alive. It can be said that it is extremely bloody and brutal.

As long as the other party is alarmed, a big war is inevitable.

Although Qin Ming’s strength is no longer what it used to be.

But he also didn’t want to encounter such a deep-sea overlord.

At least not right now.

In the future, when I achieve the state of transformation into a god, the Eight-Gate Golden Light Mirror’s life-shortening power will become five for one, or even ten for one when I fight against an opponent of the same level. I can simply use the mirror to shine on him and be done with it.

No matter how this monster stirs up trouble, can he withstand it?
The lifespan of the demon race is much higher than that of humans. According to Xiao Xun’s analysis, the Demon Lord Cangming was born from an ancient alien species, and he probably only has several thousand years left to live. It is not worth it to fight with such a ferocious beast.

However, Qin Ming is not afraid of the fifth-level demon lord now. After all, he has many trump cards, not just the golden mirror.

There are also spiritual treasures such as the Immortal-Slaying Gourd.

However, the cost of activating this treasure is too high, and it should not be used lightly unless absolutely necessary.

If excessive consumption occurs and the origin is damaged, the result will be more trouble than gain.

Besides, there is no spare [Nascent Soul Mana] entry in Qin Ming’s sea of ​​consciousness now.

After Qin Ming and Xiao Xun got to know each other, they already had a plan in mind.

He planned to disguise himself as a demon cultivator and sneak into the Guihai Demon Ruins.

Qin Ming was determined to get the other half of the Ni Scale Monument no matter what. After all, he had already received tickets to the Ascension Platform from those old guys in the Spiritualization Stage.
After Qin Ming discussed with Xiao Xun, he decided to act according to his plan.

Xiao Xun originally planned to go with Qin Ming, but was rejected by him.

“There are too many people around, so you’d better stay and take charge of Tianya Haige. There have been frequent beast tides in the outer sea recently. I guess that Cangming Demon Lord is planning something big again.” Qin Ming said to her.

Xiao Xun hesitated for a moment, but still followed Qin Ming’s arrangements and nodded.

“I’ll listen to you.”

Subsequently.

Qin Ming took out the mermaid pearl and swallowed it. He continued to disguise himself as a half-human, half-mermaid monster like last time, and flew out of the Spirit Island towards the depths of the sea.

During this period, he also secretly communicated with the Nanming Patriarch for guidance.

“The location of Guihai Monster Ruins is deep in the core of the outer sea. It was originally an ancient land where the human race sank, named ‘Dahe Xuanzhou’. It was once the location of Xinggong, the top power in the ancient human world. Unfortunately, it disappeared with the dust of history. I only found this place when I saw it by chance in ancient books.” The Nanming Patriarch recalled with a sigh.

Qin Ming said calmly: “Then you are really capable. You actually sneaked into the Guihai Monster Ruins under the nose of that fifth-level monster lord.”

“Haha! I was lucky at that time. It happened that Demon Lord Cangming was not in his lair, ‘Soul-Eroding Bone Swamp’. Otherwise, it would be hard to say. This beast is not only powerful, but also vigilant and suspicious. Any living creature that approaches its territory will basically have a bad end.” Patriarch Nanming said with a dry laugh.

A few days later.

Qin Ming disguised himself as a mermaid and continued to travel far under the sea. Finally, he saw a piece of ruins sunk to the bottom of the sea.

There is an extremely powerful restriction surrounding it outside.

Qin Ming immediately released the Sky-Devouring Rat, and quickly resolved the outer restrictions and continued to sneak in.

His ability to conceal himself was extremely strong. He concealed his aura and carefully passed through the ruins on the seabed.

He also released a trace of divine consciousness and vigilantly observed the ‘Soul-Eroding Bone Swamp’ not far away, but found that he did not sense the breath of powerful demon cultivators above that sea area.

Qin Ming breathed a sigh of relief.

“It seems that my luck is pretty good. I ran into this deep sea overlord when he was out.”

immediately.

Qin Ming used all his speed to travel through the ruins for half an hour. Suddenly, his sight became clear and he arrived at a deep-sea cave.

An ancient spiritual ban was set up at the entrance of the cave, and it is still functioning normally after tens of thousands of years.

“Hehe! This ancient restriction is extremely powerful, even the Spiritualization Stage cannot break it. I was lucky enough to get a disposable ancient talisman back then, so I was able to enter it.” Nanming Patriarch said awkwardly. “Master, let me do it.” The Sky-Devouring Rat volunteered.

Qin Ming nodded. After all, this was the job it was best at now.

The Sky-Devouring Rat spewed out forbidden mysterious light from its mouth, and after working for most of the day, it finally cracked the core restriction.

Even the Nanming Patriarch found this kind of method unbelievable.

After passing through the restriction of the cave, the scenery in front of Qin Ming suddenly changed, and he came to a vast and desolate demon void.

The endless expanse was filled with skeletons of monsters and humans, large and small, piled up to form mountain ranges. One could imagine the scale of the war that broke out here at that time.

After countless high-level monks and monsters died here, after tens of thousands of years of sedimentation, the Guihai Monster Ruins was formed.

But the main reason is that the few great demons that the Lord of the Star Palace killed in the end, which came down from the ancient demon world, all died here.

As soon as Qin Ming entered, in addition to the thick deathly aura, he could feel a demonic aura lingering in it that lasted for a long time.

Following the guidance of the Nanming Patriarch, he finally came to a collapsed palace.

I saw that the entire palace was shrouded in a formation, and in the center of the hall, sat an old man in a gray robe. He looked haggard, and his skin was covered with dense black scales, which was obviously caused by forcibly absorbing and refining the energy of the heavenly demon.

At this point, Qin Ming finally believed what the Nanming Patriarch said.

He had indeed fallen to the point where he was neither human nor monster.

So he released the spirit.

After the soul of the Nanming Patriarch returned to its place, he forced a smile and said, “Thank you, little friend Qin.”

Then he slapped his storage bag.

The other half of the Niliang Monument then appeared in his hand.

however.

Just when the Nanming Patriarch was about to hand the Ni Lin Monument to Qin Ming.

A sudden change occurred!

“what!”

Countless gray and dense demonic auras instantly enveloped the entire body of the Nanming Patriarch, and he began to transform into a demon.

Thick bones quickly grew out from its body and instantly grew taller, turning into a three-meter-tall monster covered with black scales.

That half of the Niliang Monument was also taken back by him.

The demonized monster had the cultivation level of the Spirit Transformation Stage. With a casual break, it shattered the rune chains that bound its body.

An overwhelming fierce aura was overwhelming.

Just when it was about to attack Qin Ming.

But the next moment, the appearance of the Nanming ancestor appeared on the monster’s head again, as if he was struggling in pain, fighting for the initiative of the body with the monster.

Sometimes it turns into a human, sometimes it turns into a monster.

Qin Ming stepped back, looking at the scene with a frown, and was wondering whether he should destroy it.

I only heard the old demon Qingyang in the Blood Pagoda say: “It seems that this old guy is deeply poisoned! As soon as he smelled the human scent on Qin Xiaoyou, he actually lost his mind.”

When Qin Ming heard him say this, he knew that he had a solution, and immediately asked, “What did the old ghost say?”

“This is as difficult as ascending to heaven for others, but for little friend Qin, isn’t it a piece of cake?” The old demon Qingyang smiled sinisterly and continued, “You can use the Qingdi Dharma Eyes to remove the ‘celestial demon aura’ from this old guy. Others can’t avoid the celestial demon aura, but for you who have practiced the ‘Demon True Power Art’, it is a great tonic! Hehehehe!”

Qin Ming thought about it and looked at the Nanming Patriarch who was in a state of madness opposite him. He then directly displayed the third level of demon power and transformed himself into a mini version of the ancient demon ape, about ten feet tall.

Then he bent his knees and jumped up, stretched out his huge palm and pressed the demonized monster to the ground.

No matter how the other party struggled, it was useless in front of the silver-white demon ape that Qin Ming transformed into.

next moment.

A light green vertical pupil appeared on the forehead of the ancient demon ape, with reincarnation spiritual patterns flashing inside it.

The Green Emperor’s eyes suddenly opened.

In an instant, a large green divine light enveloped the demonized Nanming ancestor beneath him.

Under the illumination of this green divine light, the originally extremely irritable Nanming Patriarch gradually calmed down, and his scarlet eyes gradually became blurred and distracted.
The strong demonic aura was separated from the body and soul of the Nanming Patriarch by the green divine light, and then condensed into a wisp of gray celestial demonic aura in mid-air!

Qin Ming’s eyes suddenly lit up!
Then he performed the “Demon’s True Power Technique”, and an extremely terrifying suction force came out of the ape’s mouth, which immediately sucked the extremely pure heavenly demon energy into his body.

This demonic energy seemed to come from the remains of an ancient great demon, and was tainted with a trace of its residual soul and evil thoughts, and it wanted to take the opportunity to cause chaos in Qin Ming’s body.

However, the demon baby on the black lotus in the center of the palace spewed out a four-colored ancient poisonous flame from its mouth, which instantly refined the remnant soul and turned it into nothingness.
The demon baby showed an excited look on his face. He captured the demonic energy, took out an exquisite jade bottle, sealed it, and then handed it to Qin Ming.

Compared to the half piece of the Reverse Scale Monument, for Qin Ming, this Heavenly Demonic Aura is a truly rare treasure!
In this way, he gathered a true devil’s aura and a celestial demon’s aura.

If you can practice “The Demonic True Power Technique” to the fourth level.

By then, the physical training will probably be able to break through to the Spiritual Transformation realm at the same time.
