Chapter 274 Collecting Supreme Devil Cores

‘Ding,

The host can’t devour the corroded beasts with the current level of [Absolute Devour].

‘What? Why can’t they devour them? Is it because of the corrosion?’

Leo frowned when he saw the system notification because it was the first time his talent [Absolute Devour] failed to devour something.

‘Ding,

The system detected devil cores inside these beasts. Collect them.

‘Huh? Devil cores?’

Leo stopped fighting the devil beasts and pulled a few corpses into the Secret Dimensional Space.

‘Slash’

With a simple slash, Leo cleaved the corpse into two and saw a small black-coloured stone around the size of the pebble.

‘Ding,

Item Name: Supreme Devil Core (Level 1).

Use: A devil cultivator could absorb the energy inside it to replenish his devil energy in a short time.

The moment he picked the black-coloured stone, the name and the use of the stone appeared before him.

‘Can be used by the devil cultivator?’

Leo learned about the various types of cultivators from the Starlight Tribe leader. So, he knew exactly how important these devil cores are for a devil cultivator.

‘Since the Devil Goliaths occupy this world, I wonder whether they follow any devil cultivation?’

There were thousands of devil beasts outside his [Secret Dimensional Space], and he didn’t have any problem killing them since the strongest devil beast he saw so far in the horde was a level 3 supreme beast.

With the boost from his title [Supreme Killer] and other support-type talents along with a supreme grade weapon like Battle Axe, Leo didn’t have any problem killing the level 3 supreme-ranked devil beast.

‘Moreover, they don’t use any skills or talents and only use physical attacks, which makes it even easier for me to kill them.’

Therefore, Leo thought he could kill as many corroded beasts as possible before trading them with the natives of this world.

One of his reasons to enter a grade 1 world was for some useful resources.

‘Since I don’t have any use for the devil cores, I might as well trade with the natives for something good.’

In the Beastnet, there were supreme innate elemental trees that would not only upgrade the level 9 talents to the peak level 9, but they could also mutate the talent.

Hence, Leo felt there would be at least one natural resource in this world that he and his followers could use.

‘If I can’t make a trade with them, I will just store them for now and trade them when I meet any devil cultivators in the future.’

Leo doesn’t look down or hate someone just because they follow the path of the devil or demonic cultivation. As long as they don’t mess with them, he won’t bother them.

Of course, if they have something he needs, Leo doesn’t mind making the first move because the world is a place that follows the rule ‘Survival of the fittest.

‘Slash’

‘Slash’

Soon, Leo slashed the remaining corpses he brought into the [Secret Dimensional Space] and retrieved the devil cores before throwing them into his storage.

‘Before I resume killing these corroded devil beasts, I should better check the newly generated mission.’

Even if he didn’t consume the corpse using [Absolute Devour], Leo still has a lot of energy to kill them as he could get the [Supreme Promote Points] from killing them.

However, he wanted to check out the mission that the system had generated a few moments ago.

‘Ding,

Mission Name and Objective: Enter the Gateway.

Mission reward: A random level 9 talent will be upgraded to supreme class.

Time Limit: 12 hours.

‘Huh? Isn’t that a little too generous a reward?’

Leo was confused that the system was generous to give such a valuable reward just for entering the gateway.

‘I think there might be hidden dangers here.’

That’s the only thing Leo thought, and it was his habit to become careful whenever he sensed something was wrong.

‘Since I have to kill them, I can’t waste my time on retrieving the devil cores. I think I need an assistant to retrieve them.’

‘Swoosh’

[Call of the Undead]

‘Ancient Goliath King, retrieve the devil cores from the corpse.’

‘Metal-clawed vulture, protect the Ancient Goliath King at all times.’

The moment he walked out of the [Secret Dimensional Space], Leo activated his supreme-grade talent and summoned two undead beings, and gave them the orders.

“Y….e….s…..Mas….ter.”

The Ancient Goliath King replied to Leo before retrieving the devil cores under the protection of the Metal-clawed vulture.

‘Interesting.’

Leo was not surprised by the sudden change in the Ancient Goliath King and thought, ‘I am waiting to see how sentient he would become.’

[War God’s Battle Axe’s Special Effect]

He didn’t hesitate to activate the special effect of his war god’s battle axe that could completely ignore the defense of his opponents who had the strength of level 3 supreme rank or below.

‘Ding,

The host killed eight level 1 supreme-ranked corroded beast beasts and gained eight [Supreme Promote Points].

‘Ding,

The host killed ten level 1 supreme-ranked corroded beast beasts and gained ten [Supreme Promote Points].

.

.

.

.

.

‘Ding,

The host killed ten level 2 supreme-ranked corroded beast beasts and gained twenty [Supreme Promote Points].

Soon, Leo started killing the devil beasts one after another as though they were cabbages because of the special effect

All it took him was a single strike from his war god’s battle axe.

‘I only need to climb half a mountain to get to that gate.’

Leo was not killing the corroded devil beasts mindlessly; instead, he was clearing a path towards the mountain top where the red-coloured gateway was.

During the last one hour, Leo had already climbed half away onto the mountain and killed more than 5000 corroded devil beasts.

‘Huf…Huf…I can do it.’

Since his talent [Absolute Devour] was useless, Leo could not replenish his energy; however, he didn’t bother to take a break and continue to kill the incoming beasts.

After another one and half an hour,

“Finally, I can enter the gate.”

Leo tried to enter the gate with a slightly tired but excited look; however, he was stopped by a huge corroded devil beast.

‘A level 6 supreme-ranked corroded devil beast?’
