Chapter-43: decipher the page of temporal demon spirit book
"Tring
Host your villain merit has reached a value where you can decipher the page of the temporal demon spirit book.
You can further upgrade your cultivation and also get some extra benefits if you are lucky."
Shen Yue was not that sure about the second half of the rewards with luck.
This is because as a villain he will not have enough luck or support from the world.
So he cannot be relying on luck.
He went to the courtyard of Shen Xiu that is secluded and he informed about this matter to Shen Xiu before coming.
Then he started to cultivate.
This process is not an easy thing.
If things went well he might directly step into the legend rank.
If not he would at least be in black gold rank.
While thinking he started to cultivate hard using the deciphered page of temporal demon spirit book.
With this he will also be a part of the people that got connected with the temporal demon spirit book.
But this way he broke the prophecy of the emperor Kong Ming.
But Shen Yue was not that sad instead he is happy to do this.
When there is a variable there are fluctuations.
These fluctuations are the cracks where he can extend his fingers into the plot.
Soon the energy around him gathered.
He took out all the materials he collected and used them as supplements.
With that he slowly got energy and his level started to rise step by step.
It stopped when he reached 2-star black gold rank.
He has expected this already so he was not that dissatisfied.
He is already satisfied with the current result.
He sighed that he could not make more progress.
But this is enough.
Then he went to the city lord's mansion smoothly to live there.
He did not meet Shen Xiu during this time because he cannot have the scent of another woman on him at this moment.
The Nie Li has another good thing in his hand that he can use to negotiate with the city lord.
It is the mysterious array book that lord ye mo discovered in some ruins.
It has the special array to use the demon spirits as defensive mechanism.
Shen Yue can also do that but it would arouse the suspicion and also waste his time on this thing.
He can go out of the city to hunt some demon beasts to devour their energy to strengthen his demon spirits.
With his thoughts Shen Yue calmed down.
But the problem here is that the city lord would accept marrying his daughter to the Nie Li for this.
Even though later he changed his thoughts and acted like rogue, he still got good impression on the Nie Li.
Shen Yue cannot destroy or bypass this plot.
So he can only go along with the plot.
Any way he is not that interested in the Ye Ziyun and he is just trying to get her.
With the thought he went back and rested.
From that day on he started to cultivate in seclusion.
From time to time he would visit both the Ye Ziyun and the Nie Li.
He would tease the Ye Ziyun and he would tease the cousin of the Nie Li with various simple gifts.
Other than that he would leave the city and went to hunt those demon beasts.
He would directly go to hunt those black gold rank demon beasts to hunt because the beasts of lower level will not give him any benefits.
After defeating them he would devour them to death without even leaving its blood essence or soul.
He would collect some special materials from these demon beasts to refine his spear with runes upgrading it in the process.
It would take a long while to upgrade his spear.
But he is okay with the slow process.
The thunder god sword is not something he can touch at this moment.
He should step into the legend rank before changing this sword.
He would melt this sword and integrate it into his spear as well.
Just like that 2 months passed by.
Shen Yue got many demon spirits of black gold rank and started to refine them again using the nightmare demon pot.
His target is to get a spirit that has snow or cold element.
He got the snow queen but he did not have any compatibility with the snow queen.
He needs a demon spirit that has the fox nature or that is compatible with 10 tails.
If not it would not be accepted but devoured.
The only exception for this is the shadow devil that Shen Yue has right now.
It is the unique spirit that was preserved and was not destroyed.
If there is a possibility of combination to form a shadow fox then it would be changed as well.
Any way this place is special for snow and wind demon beasts and Shen Yue did get few snow fox demon spirits.
Actually he destroyed half of the snow fox tribe along with its leader and others.
He will try to use the nightmare demon pot to slowly refine them into something useful to him later.
That day when he returned he saw that the atmosphere at the city lord's mansion is tense.
The city lord and the Nie Li are confronting each other.
Shen Yue did not leave but stood on the side to watch the show as the city lord got his ass handed to him.
When the city lord lost he wanted to beat the Nie Li and play rogue.
But due to some special circumstances the attention of the Nie Li turned towards Shen Yue.
The special circumstance is Shen Yue laughing at the Nie Li mockingly.
"What are you laughing at me for?
Do you think that you can defeat my formation?"
The Nie Li spoke with arrogance in his tone and his face full of disdain.
Shen Yue smiled and said.
