[You have obtained the Magic Ling Grass that can temporarily suppress Demonic Qi. With the help of the Magic Ling Grass, you temporarily suppress the Demonic Qi within your body and attempt to break through to the Xuan- level.]

[However, just at the moment you were about to succeed in breaking through, unfortunately, the Demonic Qi within your body escaped, and a late Xuan-stage demonic beast that happened to pass by discovered it.]

[Fortunately, you were prepared. When the demonic beast appeared, you controlled your avatar to cooperate with the Great Princess to subdue it.]

[After successfully breaking through to the Xuan-level, you let the Great Princess forcibly read the memories of the demonic beast, and only then do you find out that there is actually a stronghold of the Demon God Palace within this Imperial City.]

[Moreover, you learn that in addition to the demonic beast you have captured, there are four other demonic beasts in the Imperial City. Not long ago, the demonic beast you captured received a message and was preparing to go to the stronghold to discuss an important matter.]

[You become curious about the important matter the demonic beasts are discussing, so you decide to transform into the appearance of a demonic beast, infiltrate the Demon God Palace stronghold, and investigate.]

[With the help of Boneshifting and Pseudo-Breath Stone, you transform into a late Xuan-stage demonic beast. One minute later, you arrive at the Demon God Palace’s stronghold.]

[You discover that there are already three demonic beasts present, along with a masked youth. Unlike the other three demonic beasts, the youth is only at the spirit-level early-stage.]

“Spirit-level early-stage? A masked youth?”

“Could it be the person who bought the Magic Ling Grass?”

Su Nan immediately thinks of a possibility.

[Seeing your arrival, the several demonic beasts only glance at you. Then they remain silent, waiting for the arrival of the last demonic beast.]

[Two minutes later, the last demonic beast arrives, and you are horrified to discover that it is a mid-stage King-level demonic beast.]

[As soon as the King-level demonic beast arrives, it immediately notices that the Demonic Qi on your body is far lower than before, senses your anomaly, and suddenly attacks you.]

[You don’t even have time to use Across the Heavens Shift before you are hit by the demonic beast.]

[You are dead.]

“There is actually a stronghold of the Demon God Palace within this Imperial City?”

“A mid-stage King-level demonic beast, what are these demonic beasts planning to do in this Imperial City?” Su Nan is both shocked and curious.

Unfortunately, although Boneshifting can disguise appearances, it cannot disguise the aura.

If he were masquerading as a human, it would be no problem, since he is a human and would not be detected as abnormal. But masquerading as a demon would not work; a King-level Great Demon would spot the flaw.

It is the same in his foreknowledge when disguising as a demonic beast.

Though Su Nan has some Demonic Qi on him, the amount is far less than that of a real demonic beast.

“If the Demonic Qi on me was a bit more, would I be able to deceive the King- level demonic beast?” Su Nan’s eyes flicker with a thought.

If he were to strengthen the Demonic Qi within his body, of course, he would not consider it. However, if it’s just to enhance the surface Demonic Qi, he could give it a try.

There are quite a few items with Demonic Qi on his body, any one of them could enhance the Demonic Qi on him.

However, doing so may not necessarily deceive the King-level demonic beast.

“For now, let’s not think about these things, let’s break through first.”

Looking at the Magic Ling Grass in his hand, he no longer hesitates and swallows it in one gulp.

As the Magic Ling Grass is swallowed, he instantly feels an odd force spreading through his body. Vaguely, it seems as if something is being suppressed.

The power of the Magic Ling Grass is taking effect.

“Now is the time!” Without thinking any further, he immediately looks at the panel.

[Do you want to consume 160 Demon Power Points, upgrading your character Wang Nan’s realm to the Xuan-level?]

“Yes”

[Please choose one of the following bloodlines as the main and the other three as auxiliary.]

[Great Strength Ape Bloodline, Vast Snake Bloodline, Giant Divine Ant Bloodline, Golden Bone Ox Bloodline.]

“Giant Divine Ant Bloodline!”

This character, Wang Nan, doesn’t have an Ancient Demon Bloodline fused but has the upgraded Giant Divine Ant Bloodline from the Bloodline Spirit Fruit.

[You have chosen the Giant Divine Ant Bloodline as the main, with Great Strength Ape Bloodline, Vast Snake Bloodline, and Golden Bone Ox Bloodline as auxiliary. Are you sure you want to choose these?]

[Reminder: Upgrading realms involves the risk of bloodline conflicts and loss of control. Please choose carefully.]

“Confirm!”

[Commencing progress level upgrade. Please wait patiently…]

With the 160 points of Demon Power consumed from the panel, the four Demon Sutras within Su Nan belonging to Wang Nan uncontrollably revolved, followed by the boiling of the four bloodlines.

Having experienced two previous breakthroughs, he already knew the ropes this time.

Without the interference of Demonic Qi, the fusion of the four bloodlines was very similar to the situation when Lang Thirteen broke through earlier.

The difference was that Lang Thirteen’s Star-devouring Demon Bloodline could autonomously absorb the power of the stars and the sun and moon from the Heaven and Earth to supplement itself, but Wang Nan’s Giant Divine Ant Bloodline, although reaching the standard of the Ancient Demon Bloodline, had no other peculiarities.

Facing the resistance of the other three bloodlines, neither side prevailed, and neither could do anything about the other.

Faced with this situation, Su Nan had no choice but to leave it up to fate.

Fortunately, with the foreknowledge of the outcome, he wasn’t worried about being unable to break through.

On the other side, the Great Princess, hidden in the dark, and preparing to hunt demon beasts, was amazed at the changes in Su Nan’s body.

She couldn’t figure out why Su Nan, who was supposed to be at the Xuan Rank, had become a Spirit-level again.

The Great Princess’s eyes flickered, revealing contemplation.

This time, Su Nan’s breakthrough was taking longer than ever; more than ten minutes passed, and he still hadn’t succeeded.

By this time, the power of the four bloodlines had been exhausted, and it was at this moment that the situation within his body began to undergo a transformation.

It was seen that compared to the other three bloodlines, the power recovery speed of the Giant Divine Ant Bloodline far exceeded the other bloodlines. In just a moment, it had regained its fighting strength and quickly began to merge with the other bloodlines.

The three bloodlines that had already run out of strength were no match for the Giant Divine Ant Bloodline and were quickly consumed.

“As expected of the Ancient Demon Bloodline, in critical moments, it’s still up to you!” Su Nan’s eyes flashed, and his long-suspendedheart finally settled down.

Next, things became simple. The Giant Divine Ant Bloodline quickly merged the three bloodlines. Within one to two minutes, the Golden Bone Ox Bloodline and the Vast Snake Bloodline had already been integrated, leaving only the Great Strength Ape Bloodline.

At this moment, the demon-suppressing power of the Magic Ling Grass in his body began to be gradually consumed, and in turn, demonic qi began to surge out.

“The demon beast is coming!”

Su Nan’s mind condensed, waiting for the bloodlines in his body to fuse completely, while controlling the avatar, preparing to take action.

Soon, the hidden avatar saw a middle-aged man appearing in its line of sight.

The middle-aged man was in his early forties, had ordinary looks, and had no special aura on him, belonging to the kind that wouldn’t be noticed if thrown into a crowd.

“This guy has no demonic qi on him?”

“No wonder he dares to strut around in the Imperial City; he must have a method to hide demonic qi.” Su Nan guessed.

Ordinary people are not sensitive to demonic qi, and a small amount of demonic qi is not detectable by ordinary martial artists.

However, demonic beasts are extremely sensitive to demonic qi, even being able to detect the slightest wisp.

The middle-aged man saw Su Nan, who was in the midst of breaking through, hesitated for a moment and then rejoiced: “After all the effort of looking, I found you here by chance! Young man, you actually let me find you here!”

The middle-aged man was pleasantly surprised. To find the lost Demonic Source Pearl, he spent a lot of time searching but found nothing.

He didn’t expect that his luck would come today, and he would meet Su Nan here.

A sneer appeared at the corner of the middle-aged man’s mouth: “Well, you’re going to lose control sooner or later anyway, so I might as well help you.”

As he said this, he was about to take action.

However, before he could act, he suddenly felt like his head was being pierced through with a sharp sword, instantly losing consciousness.

The middle-aged man was terrified, but before he could break free from the effects of the Divine Soul Attack, a figure had already arrived in front of him, delivering a punch to his scapula.

With a crisp sound, his shoulder blade was shattered by the tremendous force.

It wasn’t over yet; three more consecutive punches landed on him, and within an instant, without any resistance, the middle-aged man’s limbs were already disabled.

“Ah!” The middle-aged man’s consciousness finally recovered, and the severe pain from his limbs made him scream, struggling to stand up as he lay on the ground.

Seeing him like this, and thinking of the recovery power of demonic beasts, Su Nan was not at ease, so he simply chopped off the middle-aged man’s limbs.

Now, the middle-aged man screamed again, and looking at Su Nan’s controlled avatar and the appearance of the Great Princess, he realized that he had been ambushed.

Even so, he still didn’t realize the severity of the situation. Looking at Su Nan and the Great Princess, his eyes were filled with maliciousness: “Who are you guys? How dare you attack me? You’re both dead!”

Su Nandidn’t pay attention to the demon beast, only watching its rapidly healing wounds and getting ready to take action again.

At the same time, in his main body, the four bloodlines were finally completely merged!
