So I Am A Demon Descendent! - Chapter 362

Translator: Larbre Studio  Editor: Larbre Studio

Pain! Severe pain came, it was like his bones were all broken and someone was gouging out pieces of his meat. Until now, Li Xianyu had only met with such pain several times. It was so painful it seemed like he was about to die. Every cell in his bod was moaning in pain, every of his nerves were howling.

 The assimilation had backfired.

 Those devoured ancient demons were integrated into every corner of his body. When its “body” was put together in Li Xianyu’s body, it was like putting together seven dragon balls and summoning Shenron.

 The ancient demons’ remains were very aggressive. To demon descendants, they were actually lethal poisons, and it would be almost impossible to escape a tragic ending.

 Li Xianyu had expected this situation, but when the sharp pain hit, his will was still destroyed immediately, and he curled up on the ground like a shrimp, whining in pain.

 “Hold on, little brother.” Slime’s carefree voice said, “It wants to devour you out of its instinctive desire. But don’t be afraid. It has no consciousness and could not take over you so easily. Now is the time for you to completely crush it.”

 Obviously, he had expected the current situation for a long time, and his voice was steady, and to some extent he seemed to be gloating. “Hold on, little brother, the real deal is starting. It has no consciousness yet, and is eager to evolve one. At this time, what you need to do is to take over as its consciousness and it would be all yours. But the process is a little dangerous, but I am sure you already knew that. Now you only have one way forward. Either you destroy it, or it will destroy you.”

 The best way to devour the ancient demon was to become its consciousness.

 All that Slime said was true. It also helped Li Xianyu erase its consciousness. What Li Xianyu had to do now was just to take over the creature.

 The process was beyond dangerous. In fact it was even more dangerous than the battle between it and Wang Chen.

 It had tried to take over Wang Chen, who tried his best to resist. But this time, Li Xianyu and this ancient demon were trying to devour each other, with his body as the battlefield. If he were to lose, he would die. If he were to win, his body would be battered with wounds.

 He knew it was dangerous, but he still had to do it. The risk was proportional to the profit.

 If Li Xianyu were to die, Slime would be happy as it could finally get rid of him. If Li Xianyu didn’t die, Slime would not be affected. Either way it was already subservient to Li Xianyu.

 A virtual projection of the Black Water Spirit appeared in his Solar Plexus, waves of black light emerged and washed over Li Xianyu’s body that was in grievous pain. With that simple vibration, Li Xianyu recovered some degree of autonomy.

 Quickly, he sat up cross legged and recited the heart clearing mantra.

 Physical pain was just secondary, the primary concern was the battle of wills.

 From the edge, Eric stared at Li Xianyu, whose skin was scalding with droplets of blood oozing out from its pores. It was evident that Li Xianyu was struggling.

 Ideas started to emerge from his heart.

 “He doesn’t even have the ability to protect himself. Now is his weakest moment. If we want to get the treasure, now is the best moment.”

 Thinking of this, Eric looked at Ryder beside him. It was evident that Ryder was also tempted, but he didn’t have the ruthlessness to take risks.

 Obviously, this little brother didn’t want to take the opportunity to seize the treasure.

 It may be because of self-awareness, or it may be because of gratefulness. After all, Li Xianyu just saved the lives of Ryder and his sister, along with the other people of the Association of Superpowered Beings.

 Eric was also grateful for Li Xianyu’s help, but it was not enough to make up for his greed. In fact most people would choose to repay kindness with aggression. After all, it was an opportunity to get to the apex of power, Gokudo Path. For demon descendants, the temptation was greater than ever.

 “The three senior employees are not my opponents. The cat beside Li Xianyu would be a hindrance, but her ability was speed. As long as I carry out a surprise attack, she’s not my opponent in close combat.”

 “But the other party’s speed is too fast, I may not be able to escape smoothly. I may not be able to successfully shut the mouths of these Baoze employees.”

 Eric was weighing and thinking about the problems he would face if he took that step.

 “My advantage now is that I can carry out a sneak attack. If I could kill the three senior employees quickly… No, the cat would run away with Li Xianyu if the situation is not good. I can’t catch up with her.”

 “Is the quality of baoze group’s employees so high that there is really no way to get the ancient demon?”

 Eric looked at the three senior employees, and was a little unexpected when the three did not show greed in their eyes.

 It was unbelievable. Even if they were from the same company, they might not have deep friendships with Li Xianyu. Moreover, facing the ancient demon’s legacy, even brothers could backstab each other.

 “He’s in a very dangerous situation no.” Eric did not think too much and cleared his throat to speak. “I have a magic weapon to increase his mental strength. Maybe it will help him.”

 He walked over under the close inspection of Cui Hua. He needed to find a chance to get close to Cui Hua. He must kill her in one hit, or at least severely injure her such that she would not be able to fight anymore.

 If he could solve this problem, three senior employees would be easy to deal with.

 Cui Hua looked at Li Xianyu, and then at Eric. She didn’t refuse his help.

 Slowly, step by step, Eric walked closer to the heir of the Li family. Eric took off the amethyst necklace from his neck and said kindly, “Here you go, put it on for him.”

 He leaned towards Cui Hua.

 At the next moment, Eric clenched his fist. The amethyst necklace was smashed in the palm of his hand. His fist flew towards Cui Hua’s temple like a bolt of lightning.

 One hit one kill, he showed no mercy.

 Before the fist landed, the qi from his attack sent her fringe fluttering. It seemed as though she was not expecting the attack and was caught by surprise.

 It succeeded. Eric was very happy.

 However, at this time, a delicate hand, as white as jade, appeared from Li Xianyu’s sea of consciousness and casted a spiritual barrier on Cui Hua.

 Buzz!

 The space shook in a deafening roar as the punch connected with the protective barrier. Yet the barrier stood firm and did not shatter.

 Eric’s expression twisted as his pupils shrank in disbelief.

 “Meow~”

 With a deep low roar, Cui Hua suddenly disappeared, and rushed to Eric’s side at a very fast speed. She turned back into a five meter long cat and bit the back of Eric’s neck and shook him up and down.

 Cui Hua’s strength was not weaker than that of his. If she was still the cat spirit that Li Xianyu brought down the mountain, she would definitely not be able to fight Eric. In that situation, maybe the first thing she would do was to pick up Li Xianyu and run.

 However, in the evolution of attempting to break the limits of life, Cui Hua’s cultivation had been steadily improved. Although it had not recovered its original peak of Half-Step Gokudo Path, it definitely possessed S-level strength.

 If Eric’s sneak attack was successful, he could definitely kill an expert on the same level as himself. Similarly, Cui Hua’s successful sneak attack could have killed him.

 In the fatal attack, Eric flew out with half of his neck bitten off. Cui Hua didn’t give him a chance to catch his breath at all. She leaped to catch up with Eric in the air and landed countless punches.

 Without holding back, the dull sounds echoed in the space. Within a second, almost all of Eric’s bones were smashed, with his internal organs shattered. When he landed, he was on his last legs and almost died.

 Ryder was completely stunned. From Eric’s surprise attack to his near death, the whole process took only about five seconds. He didn’t expect Eric to make such a decision. They didn’t even try to communicate at all and Eric just decided to attack Li Xianyu by himself.

 Three senior employees came to him and surrounded him. It was almost for sure that Ryder would also be guarded against.

 They looked at Eric, who was struggling to breath, and sighed in silence. This guy must be blinded by greed. Li Xianyu’s cautiousness was not something they would imagine. Without some backup, how would he dare to show his weakness?

 Hua Yang plus Cui Hua, two top S-class, were enough to suppress all the people present.

 “Are you not going to kill him?” Hua Yang floated above Li Xianyu and asked.

 “Keep him alive,” Cui Hua said, pointing to Eric. She explained, “He is full of energy. Li Xianyu can use him to replenish some energy.”

 Hua Yang suddenly smiled and shook her head. “You are really considerate.”

 Cui Hua immediately booed her.

 At this time, Li Xianyu slowly breathed out a breath. His hot breath was like two fiery dragons and burned two holes on the ground.

 “It’s a success!”

 What a sense of relief.

 In the battle of will, Li Xianyu won. After being defeated and “processed” by the Holy Infant and Slime, what was left of its instinctive retaliation was nothing significant. That greatly reduced the difficulty of dominating over it.

 Even so, if it was anyone whose willpower was not firm enough, or even Li Xianyu a month ago, he would have died from mental breakdown.

 The pain disappeared, and what replaced the pain was endless strength. It seemed like his body was refined again. Strength, speed and other attributes had increased greatly. Now he had become the top-tiered S-class and could fight toe-to-toe with any of Baoze’s ten gods.

 Any more powerful, and he would become a Half-Step Gokudo Path.

 The ancient demon has fused with his body genes. The process of forcibly changing genes was very painful, which placed an unprecedented burden for Li Xianyu. Fortunately, he survived, his genes being optimized was a certainty.

 His present state was similar to having a third awakening, as his physical abilities were improved.

 Taking out the short knife, he cut a wound on his arm. As soon as the blood appeared, it was immediately stopped by the wriggling flesh, and the wound just healed like that.

 “The self-healing power was the same as before. The amazing cell vitality of the ancient demon and my self-healing power seemed to overlap, which is equivalent to having no enhancement. It did give me a lot of physical strength, but there seems to be nothing else… No wait, what’s the power of this thing?”

 As soon as he thought about that, it seemed like the power imprinted in the gene was activated without any hindrance. He naturally mastered the superpower of charm.

 “Cui Hua.” Li Xianyu cleared his throat. After Cui Hua looked over, he showed a smile, and asked, “Do you think I am… handsome?”

 And he activated his charm power while at it.

 Cui Hua looked at him and rolled her white eyes. “What a retard. Great, you are done. I prepared some nourishment for you.”

 Li Xianyu was at a loss. What’s the matter? Did the charm not work? Oh no, did I suffer that pain for nothing?

 In theory, after using that power, Cui Hua should end up with trembling legs, and eyes full of desire, and being completely obedient to him.

 Li Xianyu was not happy and wanted to try again. He considered if he should try to use it on Mother Hua Yang.

 At this time, four gulps sounded out.

 It was like someone drinking ice lemon tea in the peak of summer.

 At the same time, Li Xianyu’s keen senses perceived that four fiery eyes had locked onto him.

 Li Xianyu looked at the four men in amazement, and he looked confused.
