"This is……"
Gu Zhi's expression became strange.
The ancient inheritance passed down by the three celestial demons turned out to be...
"Devilish Art of Devouring the Sky"! ?
Gu Zhi was originally quite looking forward to it, but in the end...
The most crucial thing is that when the three celestial demons finished their inheritance, Gu Zhi discovered that the "Demon Art of Devouring the Sky" they passed down was actually a simplified version!
Suddenly, the "Demon Art of Devouring the Sky" that he had been practicing appeared in his mind. It was much more complicated and advanced than the one passed down by the three demons.
Gu Zhi was in a complicated mood and didn't know what to say.
"Don't get overly excited. Although the Heaven Devouring Demonic Art is powerful, it doesn't make you invincible simply by practicing it. The key lies in the person you practice, so don't get carried away. You still need to keep your feet on the ground."
The three demons saw that Gu Zhi had an unnatural expression and thought that he was too excited, so they warned and reminded him seriously, not wanting him to get carried away.
Gu Zhi was speechless. He was... very excited?
Okay!
Gu Zhi nodded and followed the three demons' performance:
"Thank you for your teachings, Senior. I will definitely remember them."
The three celestial demons were very satisfied with Gu Zhi and admired him very much. His indifference to fame and fortune, and his indifferent nature, really had some of the shadow of the former Sky-Devouring Demon Lord.
Afterwards, the three demons said to Gu Zhi again:
"We just told you not to get too excited. On the one hand, it was to remind you not to get carried away, and on the other hand, it was because..."
"You are not the only one who masters the Heaven Devouring Demonic Art. Relatively speaking, they are in the dark while you are in the light, so you are more dangerous."
Gu Zhi's expression became serious.
It was said that the Heaven Devouring Demonic Art had long been lost, but now it seems...
There seems to be something else going on?
The three demons saw Gu Zhi's doubts and explained:
"Ten thousand years ago, the Demon Lord had eighteen demons under his command."
"When the Demon Lord was alive, we, the eighteen Heavenly Demons, swore to follow him till death. But after the Demon Lord's death, some Heavenly Demons began to harbor evil intentions."
"The eighteen celestial demons are all practicing the 'Demon Devouring Heavenly Art' bestowed by the Demon Lord. The key to the 'Demon Devouring Heavenly Art' lies in the word 'devour'. Some celestial demons want to devour the Demon Lord's remains!"
"The Phantom Demon, the Dark Night Demon, and the Burning Flame Demon are the three strongest demons. They thought that by devouring the Demon Lord's remains, they could also be crowned as the Supreme, but we unanimously opposed it."
"Though these three Heavenly Demons were powerful, they couldn't outnumber the enemy. Therefore, they contacted powerful sects outside of Qingming Daozhou and joined forces with the top experts from other Daozhous. A great war broke out, sweeping across the entire Qingming Daozhou, and forcibly crushed the Heaven-Devouring Demon Sect."
"Finally, the Demon Lord's tomb was opened, but the Demon Lord's body was not found inside. The Ghostly Demon, the Dark Night Demon, and the Burning Flame Demon were terrified, fearing that the Demon Lord was not dead. They fled Qingming Daozhou in fear."
The three celestial demons said to Gu Zhi:
"The Phantom Demon, the Dark Night Demon, and the Burning Flame Demon all possess the complete Heaven Devouring Demon Art. They will certainly train geniuses to practice the Heaven Devouring Demon Art. The word 'swallow' in the Heaven Devouring Demon Art not only means to devour, but also to swallow up."
"In other words, practitioners of the 'Demon Art of Devouring the Heavens' can 'swallow' each other and intercept each other's cultivation achievements."
"Gu Zhi, you are currently at the third level of the Tribulation Crossing Stage. If you use the Heaven Devouring Demonic Art to refine a cultivator at the third level of the Tribulation Crossing Stage, will your cultivation level be able to advance by one small realm? No."
"However, if you refine the energy of a cultivator who is also practicing the Heaven-Swallowing Demonic Art and is at the third level of the Tribulation Crossing Realm, your cultivation level will be raised by at least two small realms."
"For cultivators practicing the Heaven-Swallowing Demonic Art, 'kindred spirits' are the greatest tonic. This is equivalent to raising Gu. Practitioners of the Heaven-Swallowing Demonic Art are all Gu insects, constantly devouring each other, and ultimately climbing to the pinnacle by stepping on countless corpses."
The three demons looked at Gu Zhi and said seriously:
"These inheritors of the Heaven Devouring Demonic Art may be in other Dao Continents, or they may be in Qingming Dao Continent. You have to be careful. You are in the open, and your influence is strong. They might unite and get rid of you first."
"Furthermore, Qingming Daozhou has been severely weakened due to the ancient war. If there is a successor to the Heaven-Devouring Demonic Art from another Daozhou... then he might be extremely powerful!"
Gu Zhi looked solemn.
But inside...
The "Demon Art of Devouring the Sky" mastered by Youkuang Sky Demon, Mingye Sky Demon and Fenyan Sky Demon is the same as the "Demon Art of Devouring the Sky" mastered by these three sky demons.
Their "Demon Art of Devouring the Heavens" is said to be the complete version, but in fact...
It's clearly a defective version.
After a careful comparison, Gu Zhi could say it more accurately—
The "Demon Art of Devouring Heaven" of the demons seemed to have been written by the Demon Lord of Devouring Heaven when he had just become the Demon Lord.
The "Demon Art of Devouring the Sky" mastered by Gu Zhi seemed to have been written when the Demon Art of Devouring the Sky was at the peak of the Demon Lord realm.
It is even possible that the version of "Demon Art of Devouring Heaven" mastered by Gu Zhi is a brand new version after Demon Lord Devouring Heaven broke through the Demon Lord realm.
Gu Zhi has an advanced version of the "Demon Art of Devouring the Sky". If he meets another inheritor of the "Demon Art of Devouring the Sky", as long as the gap in realm is not too big, Gu Zhi is confident that he can kill the other party.
What era is it now? Are you still practicing the traditional "Devouring Heaven Magic Art"?
If you want to fix it, just fix the updated version of "Devouring the Sky Demon Art"!
"Not to mention I also have the Qilin magic!"
Gu Zhi was not worried at all, on the contrary he was very excited.
After reaching the third level of tribulation, he was worried that the speed of his cultivation improvement would slow down.
Unexpectedly, there are "kindred spirits" who can be devoured and nourished, and his cultivation level can be improved rapidly.
Gu Zhi now only hopes that his "kind" will show up soon, and he is ready to have a "big meal".
"You little brat..."
The three demons noticed that Gu Zhi's mouth corners were slightly raised, and they were immediately at a loss whether to laugh or cry.
However, Gu Zhi's reaction also made them appreciate him even more.
This is what we, the demon cultivators, deserve!
"There is another opportunity for you."
The three celestial demons liked Gu Zhi more and more, and their tone became much kinder and warmer.
"Is there still a chance?"
Gu Zhi became excited again.
The so-called ancient heritage had greatly disappointed him, so this opportunity shouldn't disappoint him again, right?
"There is an ancient god's corpse at the foot of Xueyan Peak."
Tianmo did not keep anyone in suspense and directly told the news.
Gu Zhi's pupils contracted. He had felt some special fluctuations under Xueyan Peak last time, but he found nothing after checking several times. He thought it was an illusion, but he didn't expect that there really was the corpse of an ancient god.
"The mythological era is too far away from now. Many of the corpses of ancient gods have rotted away and turned into ancient divine spirits, buried deep in the earth veins. However, the corpse of the ancient god at the foot of Xueyan Peak is still preserved. After you practice the "Devouring Heaven Demon Art", you can go there and you should be able to reap a lot."
After Tianmo finished speaking, another ball of light flew into Gu Zhi's eyebrows. This was the way to enter the foot of Xueyan Peak and find the corpse of the ancient god.
