Transmigration into the Apocalypse: Winning a Billion-Dollar Lottery to Stockpile Supplies and Thrive

While undergoing a heavenly tribulation, Jian Ning was struck dead by a sudden bolt of lightning amplified a thousandfold.

In her final moments, a fragment of her soul fled with her celestial...

Chapter 262 The Holy Scripture of Demonic Fire

"Alright, Lord Qingcheng's idea is good. I'll make a fool of myself by offering my suggestion."

Look, everyone, this Hellfire Soul Blade of mine can sever the soul of an enemy.

And I've made it my precious possession, a servant of mine. It was once the personal weapon of the Demon God Hongyu, but by chance it fell into my hands. Does anyone have a treasure better than it?

After saying that, he looked around smugly. It was clear that he felt no one could compare to the treasure he had brought out.

Jian Ning sized up the middle-aged man who had spoken. He was thin and withered, with only one or two strands of hair left.

His only distinguishing feature was the few rat whiskers on his triangular face, which made it easy to tell what race he was.

"Not bad, not bad. Is there anything better than Brother Mi's?" Lord Qingcheng gave a perfunctory compliment, clearly showing no interest in his sword.

A soft laugh rang out from the side, and a voluptuous woman with a seductive figure stepped out from the crowd.

"Look everyone, what is this?"

As she finished speaking, a bracelet with multicolored light appeared on her slender, fair hand. With a gentle movement, it seemed as if cool moonlight was slowly flowing through it.

"Is this the Moonlight Bracelet? My husband, I want it!"

The Ninth Madam, sitting in the ladies' seat, suddenly brightened up. Ignoring the fact that this was not the right occasion for her to speak, she hurriedly stood up to come over, but was stopped by the demon guards beside her.

"My husband!" she called out sweetly.

Lord Qingcheng turned around and gave her a look that said, "Take it easy."

"My wife is not good at etiquette, please forgive her, fellow Daoist!"

"It's alright. No woman dislikes this Moonlight Bracelet. According to legend, this Moonlight Bracelet contains the soul of the moon and has the ability to control it."

"Indeed, this is a rare treasure." Lord Qingcheng commented on it with the same words.

For a moment, the demons below fell silent. Either of these two treasures could drive demons mad, yet in the eyes of the Lord of Qingcheng, they were nothing special.

Then the jade corals and sea pearls they possess are even less significant.

"Lord City Lord, I have an ancestral elixir here, which is said to be able to bring the dead back to life and heal the wounded."

"This is an elixir refined by the greatest pharmacist of the human race back then, now offered to you, sir." As he spoke, a shifty-eyed man walked up from the bottom, holding a small jade bottle in his hand.

"Oh, is this a pill refined by Ouyang Wuwei, the number one pharmacist of the human race?"

Lord Qingcheng immediately became interested.

You must know that for thousands of years, the demon race has been obsessed with conquering the human race's territory, which is rich and fertile.

Their lives were prosperous, a thousand times better than their godforsaken place. Unfortunately, after the war between gods and demons, the passage was sealed, and no matter how hard they tried, they could not find the way back.

Although he had a clue this time, it was impossible to break through the barrier so easily.

He took the jade bottle, opened it, and poured out the pills inside.

It was perfectly round and smooth, with a clear halo around it, and it was indeed a top-grade pill. He was overjoyed.

"Alright, this is good. Since you want to offer it to me, the city lord, then I'll accept it. Of course, I won't take it for free."

"I'll give you the appropriate compensation later, everyone. This pill is still a bit short of competing with Holy Spirit Dew, so I'll keep it for myself. Does anyone have any objections?"

"No, no, we have no objections," the people below said in unison.

Even if they have opinions, they don't dare to voice them. Didn't you hear what that shifty-eyed demon said?

This treasure of his is a gift to the city lord, so no matter how good it is, no one else has the ability to snatch it from the city lord.

Lord Qingcheng nodded in satisfaction.

"Then let's continue. Is there anyone else who thinks their treasure is better than the Moonlight Bracelet and the Hellfire Soul Blade? If not, then we'll have to choose one of these two treasures."

As soon as Lord Qingcheng finished speaking, someone below shouted.

"Wait, I have another treasure here, also passed down from the Demon God. Their two treasures are no match for mine."

"Look everyone, this is the Holy Scripture of Demonic Fire. The unparalleled techniques recorded in this scripture—don't you think it deserves to be number one?"

As he spoke, a demon with an extra eye on his forehead stood up, holding in his hand a huge, jet-black tome gleaming with golden light. It was clearly no ordinary book.

"Wasn't the Scripture of Demonic Fire supposed to have been lost long ago? How come it's reappearing now? Is it fake?"

"That's right, I remember this book went missing during the war between gods and demons, and now it's reappeared..."

I doubt it's true. If I had that Book of Demonic Fire, I'd be secretly thrilled, why would I show it off?

Aren't you afraid some other demon will snatch it away? Then, forget about the Holy Spirit Dew, he won't get anything at all.

"Meow, you're absolutely right! I think so too!"

The people below were talking amongst themselves, clearly not believing that the book was genuine.

"Don't talk nonsense. How could I dare to deceive the city lord with counterfeit goods?"

"If you don't believe me, you can check it yourself." The three-eyed demon stood up, strode forward, and handed the book in his hands to Lord Qingcheng with both hands.

"Everyone, please be quiet. Let me check its authenticity first, and I will definitely give you an explanation."

Lord Qingcheng took the book, pressed his hands down to quiet everyone, and then began to read it.

He was shocked as soon as he saw the first page.

This Holy Scripture of Demonic Fire was actually real. After reading it for only a short while, he felt the demonic energy in his body surging uncontrollably. If he continued reading, his body definitely wouldn't be able to withstand it.

This thing is incredibly powerful. No wonder it was a technique cultivated by the Demon God back then.

He closed the book and declared loudly, "I can attest that this Holy Scripture of Demonic Fire is indeed genuine. Therefore, this brother is undoubtedly the number one possessor of this treasure. Does anyone have any objections?"

"No! We have no objections,"

Just kidding. In this demon realm, you might not have heard of the Moonlight Bracelet, or you might not know about the Hellfire Soul Blade, but there's definitely no demon who hasn't heard of the Demonfire Holy Scripture.

This is simply the number one cultivation technique in the Demon Realm. Although the Demon Race doesn't really need cultivation techniques, this one is different; it was specially tailor-made for the Demon God by His Excellency.

Anyone who says they don't know will probably be expelled from the Demon Realm.

"Since everyone agrees, then these two bottles of Holy Spirit Dew are yours. Keep this book safe and don't lose it."
