In the lava land, inside the cave of the Great Sage Equaling Heaven.
Fang Xiu began to tally up his gains: twelve Rank 3 Heavenly Demon Gods, plus one Rank 2 Demon Dragon King. The harvest was undeniably substantial.
He had sensed the arrival of Lucifer and the Angel of Envy, so he did not immediately refine the Demon Dragon King and the others. After all, in their memory, he had just broken through to the third rank a few years ago. If he had broken through to the second rank today, it would be too unbelievable and would arouse suspicion.
Therefore, he did not refine it at that time, but temporarily stored it in his inner world, allowing the demon gods to suppress it.
Now that the person is gone, it's time to start refining him. However, after refining him, you need to avoid dealing with Lucifer and the others, as it's easy for them to see through your disguise.
But why are all the ones who came this time clones, instead of the original body?
Fang Xiu had a question in his mind: what important matter was Lucifer the jealous angel unable to attend to?
This question was answered after the Demon Dragon King was refined.
The Demon Dragon King was, after all, a second-rank Heavenly Demon God, and he could see Lucifer frequently, so he knew some inside information.
According to the Demon Dragon King, not only Lucifer and the Angel of Envy, but also the seven archangels of Hell are now serving as guardians on the Black Cliff deep within Hell.
It goes without saying who he is protecting; it can only be the King of Hell, Satan!
As for why Satan, the strongest being in Hell and said to be able to go toe-to-toe with God, needs protection, the Demon Dragon King doesn't know; only the seven angels of Hell do.
Upon learning this news, Fang Xiu immediately became interested in the Seven Angels of Hell.
Perhaps it's time to hunt down a true first-grade Heavenly Demon God.
Of course not now. After this battle, Fang Xiu also realized his shortcomings. Although he won in the end, he was injured when facing twelve third-rank masters and one second-rank master, which shows that his strength is still too weak.
Even if we were to use these demon gods as our foundation, it probably still wouldn't be enough to truly face Lucifer and his group.
His current advantage is that he is practically immortal. Even if Zeus and his two companions came, they wouldn't be able to kill him, or even keep him alive.
With the combination of four abilities—illusion, the mysteries of creation, the way of time, and the final rewind after death—Fang Xiu himself didn't even know how he died.
However, the downside is that the lethality is too low. Even though a third-rank character can beat a second-rank character, he still feels that it is too low. Back then, he always fought with two ranks between him, but now he can't even kill the Demon Dragon King with one punch when he is one rank higher.
After much thought, Fang Xiu finally found the root cause.
That means you've learned too many things, you know a little bit about everything, but you lack the decisive, game-changing ability to turn the tide of battle.
Although the Reincarnation Heavenly Devouring Technique is powerful, it is ultimately not a true killing technique, but rather a devouring technique.
Therefore, the most urgent task is to develop a killing technique. Otherwise, even if he devours many more demon gods and gains a foundation comparable to Lucifer, he will probably still have to rely on attrition when it comes to a real fight.
The key question is, in hell, who would give you so much time?
After figuring out the key points, Fang Xiu held a grand meeting in his inner world.
Led by the Demon Dragon King, a group of celestial demons sat quietly and peacefully in a row, beginning a heated discussion.
"Master, it's too easy for you to have powerful killing abilities. My demonic flames can burn anything. You can integrate their power into my demonic flames and then unleash them. Absolutely..." The Demon Dragon King's boasting was interrupted before he could finish.
"Master, don't listen to him. That demonic flame is passable among those of the same level, but when it comes to surpassing levels, it has to be my Universal Spear Technique. You've used it before. The final move of the Universal Spear Technique, Floating Life Ashes, how powerful is it? Once this move is unleashed... Ahhh!!" Just as the Peng Demon King was getting into the swing of things, he suddenly felt an endless force of pain surge through him, and he collapsed to the ground, howling and rolling around.
“Master, the power of reincarnation is mysterious and profound, and is one of the most powerful forces in the world. If you want to create a killing technique, reincarnation should be the first choice!” As the weakest of the ninth-rank Heavenly Demon Gods, the Reincarnation Mother Spider was squeezed to the back, but she still spoke up actively.
“Master, Kimir is willing to serve you. Blood power is one of the oldest powers in the world, encompassing everything. The demonic flames, frost, shadows, etc. that they mentioned can all be manifested through the corresponding bloodline. Therefore, only blood power is the strongest. It can be used as the foundation to fuse with the power of all demons!”
The group of Heavenly Demons talked amongst themselves, none of them able to convince the others. Now, within the inner world, they had all become Fang Xiu's servants, so their status and position outside were no longer of any use.
Even the Demon Dragon King, a second-rank being and the strongest Heavenly Demon God in the inner world, was unable to display his majesty.
Fang Xiu listened to their speeches and found that, except for Peng Demon King, most of them made some sense, but not much, and did not meet his standards.
Although the Demon Flame is powerful, it is too singular. To think that one can defeat a First-Rank Heavenly Demon God with the Demon Flame is nothing short of wishful thinking, even with the blessing of all the demons.
The cycle of reincarnation is profound, but since the Cycle of Reincarnation has already been created, there is no need for all supernatural powers to be based on reincarnation, as it would be difficult to cope with complex situations.
The most suitable one right now is the power of blood, which is based on blood and encompasses everything. However, the problem is that it is too limited. To cultivate the law of blood, one needs a lot of fresh blood, or even the blood of various powerful people. Now that we are in hell, where can we find living people?
After a year of discussion among the demons, it was the most unassuming Cerberus who provided a good idea.
“Master, no matter whose power is used to form a supernatural ability, it is not as good as your own. After all, we were all defeated by you, Master. Doesn’t that prove that your power is the strongest?”
You are the true King of All Demons, the supreme being who rules over us all. Therefore, the divine powers created must naturally be based on you, with us as their assistants, so that we can unleash their full power!
After hearing Cerberus's words, the demons cursed inwardly, thinking that three heads were better at flattery than others.
However, after listening, Fang Xiu vaguely realized something.
King of all demons? Ruler of all demons!
A flash of inspiration struck him.
"Let's do it this way."
Fang Xiu slowly rose to his feet, and the demons instantly fell silent, staring intently at him, waiting for his command.
"For the next period of time, you will follow me to deduce this killing technique. You must perfectly integrate your power into it and be able to release it in its entirety."
"May I ask, Master, what is this divine power...?" Cerberus asked cautiously.
Fang Xiu didn't keep him in suspense. He already had a perfect name in mind, and he calmly uttered the four words.
"The Ten Thousand Demons Chaozong."
