Chapter 103: Chapter 79: Little Turtle’s Identity (Part 2)

Even this Great Demon Fiend, the Weasel Demon, was scratching its head, anxiously pacing circles around Su Chen.

Even a Grandmaster wouldn’t dare respond to its Seeking Immortality Skill. How had it suddenly failed?!

It grew desperate.

"Your three attempts are up."

"Great Immortal, shouldn’t you be leaving now?"

"Isn’t that the rule set for you by the Immortal who taught you this skill?"

Sikong forced himself to step forward. He was the strongest one here; if he didn’t step up, who would? Surely not Captain Xu, a mere mortal with no cultivation?

Inside the temple.

The crowd of lesser fiends breathed a collective sigh of relief.

’They aren’t going to fight?’

’That’s wonderful.’

’If they truly angered this man, not only Mr. Yellow-skinned but all of them would be doomed.’

"No!"

"Let’s go again!"

"This time, you will say ’Demon Fiend’!"

The Yellow-skinned Old Immortal’s eyes turned sinister as it stared at Su Chen.

"Fine."

Su Chen nodded.

It just so happened that he also wanted to see the second variation of this Seeking Immortality Skill.

"Am I a Demon Fiend or an Immortal?"

The Yellow-skinned Old Immortal dropped all pretense of courtesy, its ferocious nature on full display as it bared its chilling fangs.

"Demon Fiend!"

Su Chen declared.

BOOM!

In an instant.

Billowing black mist churned, and from it swarmed countless ferocious little weasels. With blood-red eyes and sinister grins, they poured out like a tidal wave, rushing toward Su Chen.

However.

The little weasels had barely emerged and charged toward Su Chen for a moment before they began to screech in agony from a burning heat.

’It’s so hot!’

’We’re being burned alive!’

’Why is there a giant furnace up ahead?!’

Their faces filled with terror, they scrambled frantically back into the black mist, trampling countless other weasels to death in their haste.

"What’s happening?"

"I don’t understand what I’m seeing..."

Sikong and the figure in the red robe exchanged a look, each seeing the same bewilderment in the other’s eyes.

It wasn’t just them.

Even the Yellow-skinned Old Immortal was baffled, pacing in circles and scratching its head in frustration.

’What in the world is going on?’

’Has my Seeking Immortality Skill gone wrong?’

’I’ve only cultivated half a scroll, and while I’ve had issues before, it’s never been this serious...’

So he only had half a scroll, and the seeking ritual was flawed.

Sikong and his companion finally relaxed.

Watching the scene unfold had scared them half to death. For a moment, they feared this mortal Captain from the Western Depot had transformed into some terrifying existence.

It turned out the problem lay with the Yellow-skinned Old Immortal.

"Yellow-skinned."

At that moment, Su Chen spoke.

"What?"

"Who do you think you’re talking to!"

The Yellow-skinned Old Immortal’s face turned grim as it snapped back.

Looking at this unnervingly strange young man, its Killing Intent surged. It was already tempted to break the three-attempt rule and kill him.

"Now, it’s my turn."

"You are to call me an Immortal."

Su Chen said calmly.

He had come to an understanding and was itching to test his new insight. He glanced around at the lesser fiends, who were kowtowing to him like they were pounding garlic, their faces full of pleas. He decided not to bring disaster upon them.

Instead, he set his sights directly on the Yellow-skinned Old Immortal!

"Huh?"

The Yellow-skinned Old Immortal was so baffled it almost laughed.

’This kid wants to seek a title from me?’

’Wait a minute.’

’Do you even know the Seeking Immortality Skill? How dare you try to use it? And on me, a Great Demon Fiend, no less? You’re courting death.’

’Besides.’

’Even when mastered, the Ascension Skill only allows a higher-level being to plunder from a lower-level one.’

’What the hell are you!’

"Fine!"

The Yellow-skinned Old Immortal sneered.

"Little demon, tell me: am I a man, or an Immortal?"

Su Chen did not bow. With an indifferent gaze fixed on the Yellow-skinned Old Immortal, he spoke slowly.

The Seeking Immortality Skill activated.

This was a profound Immortal Technique, not something that could be perceived by those practicing mere Mortal Cultivation or Bottom Stream Qi Cultivation.

Even the Weasel Demon itself couldn’t perceive it clearly and had been cultivating it in a state of confusion.

The only one present who could clearly see the skill in operation was Su Chen.

"Captain Xu has lost his mind."

"He actually dared to provoke a Great Demon Fiend!!!"

"If you want to die, fine, but don’t drag us down with you."

Terrified beyond measure, Sikong and the figure in the red robe hastily drove their carriage away, attempting to flee.

A Great Demon Fiend!

A being comparable to a Mortal Grandmaster.

What’s more,

this was the most uncanny of all Great Demon Fiends—the Yellow-skinned Half-immortal!

"I, Lord Immortal, see you as a man who doesn’t know his place!"

The Yellow-skinned Old Immortal swelled with the wind, transforming in an instant from a man-sized weasel into a colossal, thirty-foot-tall Demon Fiend standing outside the dilapidated temple amidst the storm.

"Watch as I, Lord Immortal, devour you!"

The Weasel Demon reached into the dilapidated temple, trying to snatch Su Chen.

The wind and rain avoided it, the thunder kept its distance, the plants, trees, mountains, and rivers all feared it—but Su Chen did not.

"I told you. I am an Immortal!"

At that moment, the Qi and blood within Su Chen’s body fused, giving rise to a brand-new Power—one just like the legendary force used to control Immortal Skills.

Within Su Chen, an illusory Magic Crystal instantly coalesced, etched with the image of a yellow-skinned creature seeking a title.

BOOM!

In an instant.

The Seeking Immortality Skill, First Layer—Immortal—activated.

"AHHH!!!"

The Yellow-skinned, which had been radiating overwhelming ferocity just a moment ago, was instantly seized by terror as a horrifying suction force took hold of it.

It was draining its lifespan and its Demon Fiend cultivation.

"The Ascension Skill!"

"This is the Ascension Skill that great lord taught me! How do you know it? Where did you learn it? Don’t tell me you learned it from me..."

"Impossible."

"Without Spiritual Enlightenment, it’s impossible for anyone to learn such a profound Immortal Skill just by observing it..."

The Yellow-skinned Old Immortal was overcome with despairing terror.

That wasn’t all.

’The Seeking Immortality Skill only allows a higher-level being to drain a lower-level one. I’m a Great Demon Fiend! And I didn’t even answer according to the rules, yet it still activated successfully?’

’Is there any justice in this world?!’

In the blink of an eye, the Yellow-skinned Old Immortal, once magnificent with its glossy, golden fur, became decrepit. Its coat turned dull and gray, its bright fur was tinged with frost, and it had aged by more than a decade.

’If this keeps up, I’ll be drained to death!’

"Great Immortal, spare my life!"
