1559 Possession
The two of them carried an unimaginably powerful aura. Each of them far surpassed the khan, who was at the peak of the Core Form Stage. Compared to him, who was at the peak of the Core Form Stage, they were one step further. If one had to give them a definition, they should be at the half-step Golden Core Stage. Masters of this level, even though they were a little weaker than Chu Yunfan, they were not much weaker.
Chu Yunfan entered the Mountain River Diagram as soon as he came over, but even so, he still attracted the attention of the two demons. Immediately, two divine wills swept out like radars. Their shut eyes immediately opened and looked directly in Chu Yunfan’s direction. However, they looked at each other in confusion because they did not see anything. They thought that they had made a mistake.
Chu Yunfan did not choose to attack immediately. He knew that even though experts of this level could not compare to the league master, they were still much stronger than ordinary Core Formers. Such experts would need to be killed in one blow or the demons near the Blood and Spirit Revival Circle, especially the Great Ancestor Demon, would be alerted.
He observed the two demons carefully. One of them had the head of a wolf and the body of a human. He had a huge wolf head and looked like a fierce wolf king. The other was a middle-aged man with thick armor on his back. His true form was probably a turtle demon. However, this turtle demon had the head of a snake. It looked extremely strange.
Chu Yunfan knew that this was a very remarkable change. Just like how the ultimate goal of the bloodline transformation of all snakes was to become a true dragon above the nine heavens, all turtles had the bloodline of one of the legendary four spirits, the Black Tortoise. Only when their cultivation reached a certain level would they have a certain chance to undergo the Black Tortoise transformation.
The level of this turtle demon was about the same as the flood dragon among the snake-type demons. It could be said that its cultivation was extremely shocking. Ordinary Golden Core turtle-type demons could not activate the Black Tortoise bloodline in their bodies.
In any case, neither of these two demon experts was easy to deal with. If they really fought, Chu Yunfan was not afraid, but how to kill them in the shortest time was the goal that he was considering.
“Was I mistaken somehow?” Turtle Demon King spoke first.
“My senses must be off. There’s no one there,” said the Wolf Demon King. However, he still looked around warily as if he was afraid of a sudden attack.
“However, it’s not wrong to be careful. This is the most important time. The great ancestor is currently using the possession technique, and he can’t afford to fail. If he succeeds, he’ll live for another thousand years and lead the demons to rise up and take over this world,” Turtle Demon King said as he frowned. “I just received news that the league master might have fallen.”
“Impossible. How strong is the league master? He’s in the Golden Core Stage. Even if he’s surrounded by humans, he can still kill them. Humans are so weak, how can they kill him?” Wolf Demon King immediately said.
“That’s true. However, the only ones who will infiltrate and invade now are the humans. Now the demons have united and want to help the great ancestor seize the body, there shouldn’t be anyone who will stab us in the back. After all, only when the great ancestor advances can he teach us the Golden Core cultivation method. We’ve been stuck at the half-step Golden Core Stage for too long,” Turtle Demon King said and shook his head.
The shocking information revealed by their words made Chu Yunfan’s expression change drastically. At this moment, he finally understood the whole story. No wonder these demons who usually killed each other were so united.
Although the demons had established the demon league, many powerful demon kings usually listened to their orders and did not take the league master seriously. On a normal day, countless demons would constantly go on expeditions. This was the fundamental reason why the human world could maintain peace.
But now, these demons of the demon league had joined forces. This was unusual in itself. It turned out that the Great Ancestor Demon of the demon league was actually going to pass down the method of cultivating to the Golden Core.
Chu Yunfan knew that the cultivation method in this world was incomplete. Although it was much stronger than the Federation, there were still gaps. This was because the Golden Core technique was no different from a heavenly book to the higher-ups of this world. Even if someone occasionally broke through, it was also due to their fortuitous encounters. Moreover, they were generally tightly concealed, afraid that others would know. After all, Cores and non-Cores were two completely different things. A Golden Core could easily kill a group of Core Formers. The strength of both parties was simply not on the same level.
Chu Yunfan was able to kill the league master mostly because of luck. Now that the Great Ancestor Demon was about to pass down the cultivation method to reach the Golden Core Stage, it was this reason that the great ancestor had sacrificed so much.
Chu Yunfan had been thinking the same thoughts as Yun Tian. He thought that the demons were trying to revive the demon that was suppressed by the Monster Subduers. Only now did he know that this was not the case. It turned out that the goal of the Great Ancestor Demon was to possess someone. The Blood and Spirit Revival Circle was used to revive the vitality of that demon, and its ultimate goal was actually to possess it.
After thinking about it, Chu Yunfan immediately understood. The ancient demon had lived for too long, so long that it might have existed a few dynasties before Great Wei. Even if the lifespan of demons was far longer than that of humans, even if he was the longest-lived turtle demon, he was probably nearing the end of his life. At this moment, he could either wait for death peacefully or fight to the death.
Possssessing a body wasn’t easy, and it had always been the case since ancient times. Especially if the person one wanted to possess was a powerful demon, the risk would be even greater. However, this Great Ancestor Demon was definitely prepared to fight to the death.
In this way, everything was logical.
There was a great terror between life and death. As long as he could survive, he could give him anything he wanted, let alone the cultivation method to reach the Golden Core Stage.
“If we break through to the Golden Core Stage, our lifespan will increase. Otherwise, we won’t be too far away from the end of our lives.” Wolf Demon King nodded happily, and at the same time, a hint of envy appeared in its eyes.
“I’m really envious of the great ancestor’s methods. That’s an ancient demon. Unlike us, it was born very powerful. In addition, it has gone through the Blood and Spirit Revival Circle and absorbed so much blood essence. Once the possession is successful, the great ancestor will instantly surpass the Golden Core Stage.”
