Chapter 657 - 301: The King of Flame Demons’ Shock (Part 2)

If the Abyssal Dominators could kill each other at will, there wouldn’t be any hierarchy, and there would be constant internal strife.

Thus, attempting to cross countless levels to hunt down a Demon Dominator much weaker than oneself is quite challenging.

Not only does one face targeting from the Abyssal Will, but must also avoid the sniping of other Demon Dominators.

It’s as difficult as ascending to heaven.

As for letting lower-level Demon Dominators unite to harvest the upper levels?

That’s even more absurd.

Backstabbing between demons is commonplace, and if it weren’t for the Abyssal Will, they would’ve already been at each other’s throats; unite my ass!

Therefore, to obtain such a great replenishing medicine, a war must be waged against a similar level.

If one can completely crush the opponent and the opponent has not successfully escaped, a Ten-Complete Great Replenishing Pill can be obtained, greatly increasing one’s power and launching an assault on deeper layers of the abyss.

"The Upper Realm didn’t take action." Lu Wenwu shook his head, "A strong individual named Master Lan hunter killed them and sent it to me; I don’t know much about it. It’s said this person is my Guardian."

"The Upper Realm on your end didn’t make a move?" The Old Demon was stunned, "You’re saying a Pseudo-Ascender, who hasn’t undergone the Thunder Tribulation, came to the abyss, killed three Abyssal Dominators, and then escaped unscathed? What kind of joke is this?"

Lu Wenwu spread his hands: "That’s the case; otherwise, it couldn’t be that the trio committed suicide, right?"

"Wait a moment."

The Old Demon hurriedly called his confidants to inquire about this matter.

Upon learning that someone indeed caused a stir in the abyss recently, attracting the attention of many Demon Dominators, he fell silent.

Although he knew long ago that the Dungeon System trained top cultivators to be exceptionally powerful, this level of strength still exceeded his comprehension by some margin.

You’ve defied the heavens, buddy!

After confirming the truth, the Old Demon silently raised his evaluation of Lu Wenwu.

"As you see, I’m very interested. Name your price." The Old Demon said gruffly.

Having three great medicines placed before him, even this old guy who has been in the Endless Abyss for years felt a bit unsettled.

"Custom-design a pair of Mythical Level gloves, you provide the materials, the requirements are those we discussed last time," Lu Wenwu smiled, "Of course, if you can put me at the front of the line, that would be even better."

After pondering for a moment, the Old Demon stared intently at Lu Wenwu and uttered two words: "Too little!"

"Too little?" Lu Wenwu was taken aback, "How little? Shall I add some difference?"

The Old Demon waved his hand: "No, you want too little; the bodies of three Abyssal Dominators may not be worth as much outside, but they are here."

He values fair trade as a demon and rarely resorts to word games or deception.

Otherwise, he wouldn’t have become a renowned Artifact Refining Master, enjoying a good reputation among other races.

"Such integrity, Uncle Kazan; the nephew humbly accepts."

Lu Wenwu promptly showed delight, gave a thumbs up, and pointed to the gold stripes on his body.

"Do you know any Engraving Masters? I want to craft a Pseudo-mythical Level, or a genuine Mythical Level, do you think it’s possible?"

Adding another piece of Mythical Level equipment would be a major leap in combat power.

Apart from this unexpected fortune, Lu Wenwu isn’t entirely without possessions.

Working hard in the Dragon Mansion still allows the collection of one item.

The thousands of high-quality spirit veins from the Dragon Race alone are astronomically valuable, with countless spirit stones stored inside.

Plus, the Dragon Mansion’s Medicine Garden has rare spiritual medicine starting at ten thousand years old, and the Library Pavilion contains divine techniques and experience notes, all bringing significant wealth.

Also, the jewelry and furniture made from precious materials left behind—they’re money!

When all else fails, can’t he revert to old work, smuggling back to the Underworld to sell egg pancakes...

Cough, cough...

"It’s possible; Mythical Level engraving is simple, much easier than creating a piece of Mythical Level equipment, but you’d really have to make up the cost this time."

The Old Demon agreed without hesitation.

"Considering the bodies of three Demon Dominators, I’ll contact an old friend and negotiate a price and pay a portion, and you can pay me the rest."

"Thank you, uncle," Lu Wenwu made a salute.

"I should thank you," the Old Demon laughed heartily, "Quickly send over the Demon Contract so I can start crafting the new equipment you need. But let me remind you, the crafting duration for Mythical Equipment is quite long, even if you cut in line, it might not catch up with your dungeon time."

Lu Wenwu quickly asked: "Is two years enough?"

"No, even one item isn’t enough."

The Old Demon’s rejection was swift.

"So you better prepare for the possibility of no main battle equipment in the next dungeon. Don’t challenge too high difficulty dungeons. If I’m not mistaken, once you’re above S Tier, you have some degree of autonomy; you can try to mix in."

"Thanks for the reminder," Lu Wenwu said seriously, "I’ll now send the Demon Contract through Divine Continent Postal."

The Old Demon nodded slightly: "I’ll send the Contract for Engraving back with this one, and barring any surprises, it should be ready when you return from the next dungeon."

"Great, thanks, uncle."

"No problem."

After both parties finalized the details, Lu Wenwu immediately took out the already prepared Demon Contract and headed straight to Divine Continent Postal.

Although Liu Ming just started collecting, he could pre-order and have the Old Demon crafting it.

It’s like ordering a time-consuming dish at a restaurant before hesitating over the menu, saving some time.

The two actions bear some resemblance.

Upon returning home, Lu Wenwu downloaded some information from the computer and directly headed to the Dragon Mansion’s Cultivation Room.

Now the [Body] attributes cannot be further enhanced, both fist techniques have reached the [All Laws Connect to God] realm, and the equipment has been planned.

For further strength improvement, one must focus on fundamental fighting techniques and the skill level of other skills.

Moreover, one must strive to master the application of Dharma Aspect properly and aim to be a stable three-minute true man.

Start with [Fleeting Shadow] and [Space Flashes], first elevate both to [Peak of Perfection]!

Twenty-fold Cultivation Card, activate!

...

The mundane cultivation life continued for nearly two years.

Under the blessing of numerous cultivation cards, [Space Flashes] and [Fleeting Shadow] successfully elevated to [Peak of Perfection].

Unfortunately, no new skills broke through to [All Laws Connect to God].

Even touching that barrier was rare.

Which left Lu Wenwu somewhat regretful.

If seen by other peak S tier members, they would be terribly frustrated.

We’ve struggled for years at this stage, barely breaking through one item, and you’ve just ascended to S tier and already have three, yet you still feel dissatisfied!?

If they knew Lu Wenwu intends to elevate his Egg Pancake Cooking technique to a higher level, they wouldn’t know what to think.

In addition to the two-year cultivation, the Old Demon successfully contacted a friend to engrave a new Mythical Level inscription for Lu Wenwu.

Liu Ming successfully sold all equipment, exchanging for materials Lu Wenwu needed.

Lu Wenwu himself sold quite a bit from home, trading a small portion of precious spiritual medicine from the Dragon Mansion.

Furthermore, exhausting one million contribution points, he covered all the remaining payments.

Meanwhile, the Order Guardian·Chaotic Good armor gifted by Master Lan was integrated directly within his body through the Divine Body, substantially boosting body defense again.

During the days in Crimson Abyss without company, the Order Guardian·Chaotic Good will serve as the primary armor.

Reassuringly, the indestructible Demon King’s Fury is still accompanying Lu Wenwu, preventing his combat power from diminishing too much.
