So I Am A Demon Descendent! - Chapter 343

Li Xianyu pinched his left wrist with his right hand and said, “Speak in my mind!”
Slime said, “Oh.”
They began to whisper in his mind.
“You mean that the door leads to the place where you used to call home?”
“Well, yes, I feel a familiar smell. It should be right,” Slime said.
“Should? Speaking of which, you rascal, even the location of the Great Deities Palace and how the Demonic Priest brought you out back then… You forgot all these completely?”
“Because I’m incomplete. Back then, Wang Chen was imprisoned in the underground palace of Shangqing Sect. Before he and I merged to use the power of fury, part of my body was taken away by Wang Qing. It was not only my body, my memories were taken away as well,” said Slime.
Li Xianyu nodded slightly. For a long time, he repeatedly attacked and threatened Slime, trying to pry out the position of the Great Deities Palace from its mouth. However, Slime insisted he didn’t remember.
Of course, he didn’t believe such a stupid excuse then. He didn’t believe Slime’s words until he saw some of Slime at the Forum Conference, attached to Wang Qing’s body.
“By the way, what are those abilities that have been taken away from you?”
“Jealousy, laziness, greed.” There was a sense of regret in Slime’s voice. The other half of his body had been destroyed, and he didn’t have to hide it.
“It’s a pity that Wang Chen destroyed part of my body that day. If I can integrate it back, I will be back to my peak. You would also be stronger.”
“Come on, I think it’s nice that Wang Chen destroyed your body.” Li Xianyu mocked. “If you reintegrated, the unlucky one would be me.”
Slime was an evil creature who had bothered the Demonic Priest his entire life. The Black Water Spirit Bead of Great-Grandma, as well as the ring left behind by Demonic Priest’s remnant spirit, worked together to suppress him. If it reintegrated its missing parts, even with Buddha Head’s beads, then it would no longer be suppressed.
“Well, it’s a pity,” Li Xianyu said.
Slime’s ability was double-edged. While Gluttony and Fury were subduing the enemy, it would also affect the host’s mind. This process was subtle.
It was like cutting flesh with a blunt knife. One could change one’s mind and nature inadvertently. When found out, one’s temperament would change a lot.
Li Xianyu thought that Demonic Priest antagonized the Cao family and slaughtered this family, who made outstanding contributions in the Second World War because of Cao Jun.
Given Wang Chen’s life experiences, he would have found it hard to appease his hatred if he didn’t exterminate the entire Cao family. However, Wang Chen was a non-secular person. He was a very gentle person in nature.
Hence, back then, Slime must have influenced him secretly and deepened the hatred in his heart. As a new host of Slime, Li Xianyu would inevitably be affected.
At this time, the prayer beads of Buddha Head would be useful. The greatest effect of the beads was to keep him in a peaceful state of mind at all times, and its secondary purpose was to suppress Slime.
The witty Buddha Head saw through this and gave him the beads in advance.
The dark door opened, and Baoze’s employees were divided into two teams. The first team led people into the door, and the second team stood outside and guarded the door.
All the people could not help but stretch their necks and pad their feet, gazing into the door. However, they only saw a world full of fog.
When everyone in the camp entered the door, Thunderlord waved and let the last employees enter the door. He glanced at all the people who were eager outside the door and said with a smile, “Everyone, see you in the Great Deities Palace.”
As he waved his hand, he grasped the key and entered the place. The dark gate slowly closed, the black material faded, and the bronze gate returned to normal.
The demon descendants who stayed outside turned to Jie Se and couldn’t wait.
Jie Se took out the key from his pocket and removed the air of qi restricting it. As per just now, the key flew to the bronze gate automatically, which matched the groove.
At the next moment, the gray brown material crawled all over the whole door. Unlike the door opened by Thunderlord, the gray brown material also carried a huge sense of oppression, but it was different from the aura of the ink door, which was sinister. Its aura made people salivate and want to lick the door.
There was a sound of saliva being swallowed amongst the crowd.
Jie Se’s heart cooled. He maintained his concentration and chanted the sutras, suppressing the sensation of salivation in his heart.
The gate opened slowly!
…
There was a thick fog behind the door. The fog here was even stronger and thicker than the outside. The air was moist and rotten.
There was silence.
Cui Hua walked to the front of the team. Her white cheeks were puffed up. She blew hard, and in an instant, the strong wind began to blow. The fog was shaking violently, which gave way to a clear vision. However, in a short while, the fog gathered again, blocking the crowd’s view.
“It’s no use relying on wind alone,” Equal said. “If you want to disperse the fog, you need the help of Fire God.”
“How do you put it?” asked Fire God.
“The constitution of fog is an aerosol system composed of a large number of tiny water droplets or ice crystals suspended in the air near the ground. Usually, when the sun rises, the water vapour will evaporate and the fog will disappear.” Equal pushed his glasses and said with pride, “This one… Miss Cat, you cooperate with Fire God and try to dispel the fog.”
Cui Hua nodded. Her pupils glowed red and bright. She exerted her powers and blew a tornado with a diameter of ten meters in front of everyone.
Fire God took a deep breath and spit out flames like a human shaped flamethrower.
The fire was swept around by the strong wind. It was like a huge fire tornado. The temperature in the air began to rise and the burning wind was blowing.
Cui Hua and Fire God did the same motions, conjuring up six fire tornadoes. Together, they easily created a scene which resembled a natural disaster. As the temperature rose, the dense fog in the air thinned a little.
Cui Hua stretched out her arm and made a pushing motion. The six fire tornadoes were pushed into the depth of this mysterious space by her. Then, they exploded.
As the six fire tornadoes exploded, the hot air was dispersed in all directions. The thick water particles in the air evaporated, and the field of vision was instantly clear. The thick fog became a thin mist.
The visibility increased from about twenty meters to one hundred meters.
At last, they saw the composition of this world. It was a vast wasteland. The sky was light gray. The dark brown land was barren. The humidity of the land was high and the air was moist, so there was no desertification.
“What is that?” someone pointed to the distance and said.
On the endless brown earth stood countless sculptures which were shaped like humans, and were about two metres tall. They held stone forks in their hands and had long tails like a giant lizard. Although they were human-shaped, there were no traces of human beings, just like the lizard man in the Western fantasy novel.
The stone sculptures of the lizardmen were arranged in disorder. They were not densely clustered. There was only one stone sculpture every five meters, but if the endless plains were taken into account, the number of these stone sculptures would amount to a lot.
They had different postures. Some of them held up stone forks to attack, and some of them stood upright like soldiers on duty.
Earth God’s toes sunk into the ground. The nearest sculpture was overturned by the suddenly arched earth under his feet. The dark brown earth seemed to be endowed with life and submerged the sculpture.
Earth God concentrated and sensed for a moment, shook his head and said, “There are no signs of life, just ordinary sculptures.”
“It’s just a group of sculptures. There’s no need to be so cautious,” said the scattered cultivators.
Thunderlord turned his head and looked sharply at the other party/ “All of you must follow us closely. Do not act without permission. Since you chose to be in the same camp as Baoze, you must abide by the rules of Baoze.”
These scattered cultivators lacked discipline the most. The goal of Baoze’s ten gods was to eliminate the disobedient characters of the major forces. It was time for the demon descendants’ community to be reformed, and those decadent institutions and family forces should have been annihilated with the passage of time. Their existence was not conducive to the stability and harmony of the demon descendants’ community.
What Baoze Group wanted to do was reform, not massacre. They took a protective approach towards these scattered cultivators.
The Association of Superpowered Beings, along with a few other domestic forces, were more peaceful than the scattered cultivators. Before they saw the “treasure”, they would not bare their teeth easily.
Under Baoze’s leadership, most of them trekked to the barren plain.
Bang!
Combat God smashed a stone sculpture beside him and carefully observed its stumps. The patterns inside the stone sculptures were very strange. They were tough and dense, but tender like meat. They were not made of stone.
However, Earth God was right. The sculpture had no signs of life. They were dead matter.
Li Xianyu communicated with Slime with his mind, “Is there anything else in your home?”
“Let me think.” Slime tried hard to recall.
