Lin Xuan walked forward and carefully examined the corpse. He found that the corpse of the giant demon had indeed rotted.
However, only the flesh and organs of the giant demon were rotting. Its skin still had a black luster, and there were faint demonic patterns surging on it.
"This demonic skin … seems to be a treasure!"
Lin Xuan's eyes flashed.
The demonic patterns on the skin of the giant demon were profound and complex. It was extraordinary and would probably be an excellent material for refining weapons.
Lin Xuan took out the Seven Killing Shao Feng Sword and injected a large amount of power into it. He cut open a wound on the head of the giant demon and then shook the demonic skin. The rotten flesh and bones in the giant demon's body all fell off, and the intact demonic skin fell into Lin Xuan's hand.
This demonic skin was extremely light in his hand, as if it was weightless. However, it was also very tough and could not be torn apart.
The most peculiar thing was that this skin had the ability to ward off magic. Lin Xuan shot out a chaotic finger force, but the moment it came into contact with the demonic skin, it dissipated into Yuan Qi.
"Heh, if I had known that the skin of the giant demon had such an effect, I would have stayed in the previous level for a few more days and hunted a few more." Lin Xuan smiled.
At this moment, he suddenly felt a burning sensation in his chest, as if something was trying to bulge out.
"Hmm?"
Lin Xuan's face suddenly turned cold. The demonic patterns that formed the Demon Suppressing Tower were actually moving.
He thought for a moment, and with a thought, a black light spread out. In the open space in front of him, it condensed into the shadow of a demonic tower that was more than eight hundred meters tall.
Lin Xuan stood outside the demonic tower and looked up at the shadow at the top of the demonic tower. He wanted to see what that guy was up to.
Whoosh!
With a flash of black light, the demon trapped in the Demon Suppressing Tower flew down from above and appeared in front of Lin Xuan. The man and the demon looked at each other across the Demon Suppressing Tower.
Today, this demon had turned from a small droplet of water into a human-shaped giant demon. It was three meters tall and looked strong and ferocious. The two balls of demon flames that acted as its eyes flickered slightly, making people not dare to look at it directly.
Lin Xuan looked at this devil and couldn't help but sigh. All along, the Devil Suppressing Pagoda had been one of his trump cards, helping him eliminate many powerful enemies.
But now, this guy in the Demon Suppressing Tower, after devouring countless souls and memories, had become his greatest threat.
If he hadn't met Ji Lengye, he probably wouldn't have viewed the devil as a threat.
Ever since he knew what happened to the Demon Lord, he had been wary of the Demon Lord. After he became wary of him, the Demon Lord immediately sensed it and showed a strong hostility to him.
Or perhaps, this fellow had been harboring ulterior motives all along. Before Lin Xuan discovered it, it had been pretending all along until it could no longer pretend. Only then did it reveal its fangs.
"What the hell are you?" Lin Xuan said.
He seemed to be asking himself, but also seemed to be asking the devil.
The devil's mental strength slightly fluctuated, "I am you, you are me."
Lin Xuan sneered, "Actually, even if you don't say it, I know. You should be my inner demon, the darkest part of my heart.
Of course, that was in the past.
These past few years, you've devoured too many souls and have long become an independent existence. It's to the point that you've gradually developed thoughts of replacing me. "
The demon flames in the devil's eyes flickered as it sent a sound transmission, "I can't replace you. Only when we combine can we be complete and truly invulnerable. Without me, you're incomplete and have too many weaknesses. "
"Oh? My weaknesses? What are you referring to? "Lin Xuan asked with interest.
The devil said with disdain, "Could it be that you haven't realized it yourself? Ever since you separated from me, your heart has softened. When you're thinking about women, you'll actually disregard your own interests.
Take Ji Xueyan as an example. You clearly knew that the Ji Family would become a stumbling block for you sooner or later, but you still gave the Demonic Kun blood to Ji Xueyan. Could it be that you didn't know that this would make your enemies stronger?
You knew that wasn't the case!
But you still did it so that Ji Xueyan would be able to answer to her when she returns!
You're so sentimental, what kind of future do you have? As long as your enemies find a flaw, you'll ruin everything! "
Lin Xuan was stunned for a moment before he shook his head and laughed, "You're right, I did make a mistake in this matter. However, it wasn't all for Ji Xueyan …"
"There's no need to quibble. I've said it before, I am you and you are me. How could I not know what you're thinking?" The devil said indifferently.
Lin Xuan smiled coldly, "Could it be that you want to keep pretending? Since I am you and you are me, why don't I know what you're thinking? "
The devil said sinisterly, "The reason why you don't know what I'm thinking is because I don't want you to know. It's also because you're not strong enough."
Lin Xuan smiled and was too lazy to argue with the devil, "I'll find a way to deal with you sooner or later. I don't need to know what you're thinking. I know that your existence is a threat to me and that's enough.
Alright, let's cut the crap. You took the initiative to jump out this time, what do you want? "
The devil looked at the devil skin at Lin Xuan's feet and said, "I want it!"
"Giant Devil Skin? What do you want it for? "Lin Xuan didn't understand.
The devil said, "The Giant Devil Skin contains the demon patterns passed down by the ancient demons and has the ability to block all spells. If I can comprehend the mysteries within, my strength will increase greatly and I'll be able to help you even more."
"Eh? You actually want to comprehend the demon patterns on this skin? How is that possible! "Lin Xuan couldn't help but be shocked. He was a little suspicious in his heart.
The demon patterns on the Giant Devil Skin were profound and complicated. It was beyond one's imagination. If one looked at it for a while longer, they would feel dizzy and their mental energy would be greatly depleted.
Anyway, Lin Xuan didn't even think about comprehending the demon patterns on it.
"These demon patterns might be too difficult for you to understand, but for me, there's no barrier because I am a demon and you are a human!" the devil said.
"Oh?"
Lin Xuan's eyes flashed and he said, "It's not impossible to give it to you, but I want to plant the heaven order pattern on your body. From now on, you have to be completely used by me!"
The devil was silent for a moment and actually nodded. "Okay!"
As a result, Lin Xuan was a little puzzled. Why did this guy agree so readily? Was there something fishy?
He continued, "You also have to swear a primordial heavenly oath that you will never betray me!"
"Okay!" The devil agreed once again.
Lin Xuan was even more puzzled now. Was he wrong?
But very quickly, he seemed to have understood something.
The reason why the Demon Supremacy was possessed by the devil back then was perhaps because he failed to pass the tribulation and gave the devil an opportunity to take advantage of him.
Under normal circumstances, the Demon Supremacy could completely control the Demon Suppressing Tower and imprison the devil forever so that it wouldn't have a chance to rebel.
Perhaps the devil at this moment couldn't see the possibility of a successful possession, so it was willing to bow down to Lin Xuan.
Since that was the case, Lin Xuan naturally wouldn't be polite with it. He immediately sat down cross-legged and carved the heaven order pattern on the devil's body through the Demon Suppressing Tower. He carved a total of 720 patterns before stopping.
The devil didn't resist at all and very quickly, the heaven order pattern took effect.
Next, Lin Xuan took out a primordial heavenly oath scroll and crushed it, making the devil swear a very strict oath.
After confirming that there were no problems, Lin Xuan finally heaved a sigh of relief and threw the giant demon's skin into the Demon Suppressing Tower.
After the devil obtained the giant demon's skin, it seemed to be abnormally excited. It was so excited that it trembled slightly. It opened its mouth and actually swallowed the entire giant demon's skin. Then, it looked deeply at Lin Xuan and was about to return to the top of the Demon Suppressing Tower.
"Wait a moment!"
Lin Xuan called out to the devil and said, "After you understand the mysteries of the demonic pattern, pass it to me!"
"Okay!"
The devil replied and immediately disappeared into the sky.
Lin Xuan put away the Demon Suppressing Tower. His eyes couldn't help but flash with a trace of hope. If one day, he also had the Giant Demon Clan's divine ability, his strength would definitely increase explosively. Just thinking about it made him look forward to it!
With a thought, his figure disappeared and he arrived in the outside world.
He came to the ground and looked up at the sky. Above the nine heavens, there was a huge golden sun hanging. It was more than ten times bigger than the sun of the True Martial Domain. But surprisingly, the temperature between heaven and earth wasn't high.
There was no demonic qi or vitality between heaven and earth, but it was filled with traces of a different kind of energy.
Lin Xuan tried to use his mental cultivation method and found that this energy could also be absorbed. The quality of this energy was even better than the vitality of the True Martial Domain.
This discovery made him even more vigilant.
Generally speaking, the quality of a world's energy determined the upper limit of that world's cultivation.
In this world, it was very likely that there were powerful existences that surpassed the sixth rank. This made him vigilant.
Next, Lin Xuan took out a pot of wine and drank while quietly waiting for something.
After a while, several figures came one after another and stood respectfully behind Lin Xuan. They were Shen Yukun, Ji Fengxiao, and Tu He, two people and one demon.
"How's the investigation?" Lin Xuan asked faintly.
Shen Yukun and the other two looked at each other. Finally, Shen Yukun stepped forward and was the first to report, "Master, this subordinate has been mainly investigating the north for the past few days. In the north, there are a total of 906 demon clans. Among them, the most powerful one is the Iron Elephant Clan, which has a sixth rank Monster Venerable."
"Okay." Lin Xuan nodded and didn't comment.
In fact, he was a little dissatisfied. The things that Shen Yukun reported were not very useful to him.
Tu He said, "Master, this subordinate is responsible for investigating the west. A total of 373 demon clans have been found. Among them, the most powerful are the White Tiger Clan and the Fire Wolf Clan. As for the cultivation of the strongest of these two clans, this subordinate hasn't been able to find out."
"Okay." Lin Xuan nodded indifferently and turned to look at Ji Fengxiao.
Ji Fengxiao cupped his hands and said, "Master, this subordinate is responsible for investigating the south. A total of 536 demon clans have been found. Among them, there are four demon clans. Their numbers are small and their strength is low. They are suitable for master to use for missions."
"Well, good! You are indeed a member of the Ji family! "
Lin Xuan looked at Ji Fengxiao approvingly.
