Chapter 3651 - 3657 Demonia Stone
John’s eyes gradually lost their luster, his entire body starting to be controlled by the old man! Just as it seemed that the old man was about to take over John’s consciousness field, there was a sudden explosion!
A brilliant burst of light erupted from John’s consciousness field, instantly shattering the elder’s pale blue aura! The elder was engulfed by the radiance, his eyes filled with sheer terror!
“What… What is this?” The elder stared in astonishment at the radiance before his eyes! As the glow gradually faded, the elder discovered that within John’s possession was a book. On it were two gilded characters: Golden Tome!
“How… How is this possible? How could there be a heavenly tome in your consciousness field?” The elder was suddenly thrown into a state of panic!
Although he had lost his memory, the radiance emitted by Golden Tome was incredibly familiar to him. It was a power that only existed in the celestial realm.
Upon seeing the elderly man’s fear of the Golden Tome, John manipulated his spiritual sense, causing the Golden Tome to open slowly! As Golden Tome was opened, beams of light shone upon the elderly man! The elder let out a cry of surprise, and then the strength in his body vanished instantly. He curled up into a ball!
“Don’t kill me, don’t kill me, I will never dare to seize your body again…” the old man began to plead for mercy! His soul remnant had endured for thousands of years, all in the hope that one day it could see the light of day again! Unexpectedly, after such a long time, he finally found a body that could carry his own, only to encounter a tough nut to crack! He could never have imagined that within the consciousness field of a Tribulator cultivator, there would actually be a heavenly tome!
Upon seeing the elderly man’s condition, John closed the Golden Tome. As the golden light disappeared, the old man finally let out a long sigh of relief.
“Who exactly are you, you rascal? Why is there a heavenly tome in your consciousness field?” the elder asked in disbelief.
“You dared to seize my body without even knowing who I am. Isn’t that a bit reckless of you?” John asked.
“Indeed, it was a bit reckless. You were merely a Tribulator cultivator, yet you possessed such a formidable physical body, which in itself was unreasonable. It’s just a pity that I’ve lost most of my memory. Otherwise, I would certainly know who you are. Today, I have indeed met my downfall. However, I am grateful for your mercy in sparing my life. Once I am able to see the light of day again, I will surely repay you…”
After the old man finished speaking, he surprisingly intended to leave John’s consciousness field! However, as a thought crossed the old man’s mind, John’s consciousness field once again erupted with streaks of golden light! That radiance directly obstructed the old man’s lingering spirit, preventing him from leaving!
“What… What are you going to do?” the elder asked in alarm.
“You wanted to leave this decrepit cave, didn’t you? I can take you out to see the world beyond, but you can only reside within my consciousness field. Perhaps I have a way to help you regain your memory. Once your memory is restored, you’ll have to do some things for me before I can let you go!”
John had no intention of letting the old man go. After all, that fellow came from the celestial realm. Even though he had lost his memory, the things he knew were definitely beyond the comprehension of the people in Ethereal Realm!
“You will truly take me away?” the elder asked in surprise!
“Of course, I’m not like you. I’m a guy who keeps his word!” John said coldly! The words left the old man flushed with shame, silencing him completely!
“Mr. White, Mr. White…” Suddenly, the voice of Fitz echoed in John’s ear!
John’s expression momentarily glazed over, then he saw Fitz right beside him, and the techniques etched on the stone wall! Trent and Tessa, on the other hand, used the stones within the cave to construct graves for their deceased fellow disciples! Even within the cave, they didn’t want to leave their fellow disciples’ bodies exposed!
John gazed at the cave, restored to its original state, a slight frown creasing his brow.
“Fitz, did I leave this cave just a moment ago?”
“No, not at all. You’ve been standing here. without moving an inch. I found it a bit odd, so I called you out a couple of times!” Fitz exclaimed!
“Could it all have been an illusion?” John furrowed his brows, then his consciousness instantly plunged into the consciousness field! When he saw the old man, he realized that what he had experienced was not an illusion at all.
“Mr. White, what do you mean by illusion? I just practiced the techniques inscribed on this stone wall, and I feel that these techniques are very unique. Some parts seem to make no sense at all. Could you please explain it to me, Mr. White?” Fitz turned to John, seeking advice.
“First, make copies of these techniques. I’ll explain them to you later!” John instructed Fitz to make an imprint of the techniques from the stone wall!
Then he glanced at Tessa and Trent, who were building a tomb for their deceased fellow disciples. He addressed them, “Once a person is dead, they cannot be revived. Since they are already gone, building a tomb won’t serve any purpose. It would be better to cremate them, to prevent their bodies from becoming food for wild beasts!”
Upon hearing John’s words, both Trent and Tessa came to a halt! If all the dozen or so disciples of Soul Demon Sect were to have their graves built out of stones, it would indeed take a considerable amount of time! The two individuals remained silent.
John, on the other hand, conjured a demonic fire, setting ablaze the corpses of Soul Demon Sect’s disciples! Even Cameron’s corpse was set ablaze by John. Rather than letting it slowly decay, it was better to end it swiftly with a burst of flame!
After all was done, Fitz also made rubbings of the techniques around the stone wall! John led them away from the Demon Devouring Cave! Just as John and his companions had barely stepped out of the Demon Devouring Cave, the entire cave astonishingly collapsed with a thunderous crash! In an instant, the Demon Devouring Cave was engulfed, vanishing without a trace!
As Tessa and the others gazed upon the collapsed Demon Devouring Cave, they were all utterly dumbfounded! Fitz turned to John and asked, “Mr. White, did you discover anything within the Demon Devouring Cave? Apart from the techniques on the stone wall, there doesn’t seem to be any treasures.”
“This journey was not in vain…” John gave a faint smile. He had obtained the old man’s soul remnant, a treasure far more valuable than any other! If it were possible to restore the old man’s memory, that would be even better! John, along with Fitz, hurried back to Soul Demon Sect.
All along the way, Tessa was affectionately clinging to Fitz, much to Trent’s frustration and annoyance!
Upon returning to Soul Demon Sect, John immediately sought out Stanlee. He hoped that Stanlee could help the old man regain his memory! Additionally, it was to see if Stanlee could remove the shackles from the old man’s soul remnant! After all, Stanlee’s research on the soul was far superior to that of John!
Stanlee turned to John and asked, “Mr. White, I heard your recent journey to the Demon Devouring Cave was quite fruitful, wasn’t it?”
“There wasn’t much to gain, really. The few techniques inscribed on the stone wall held no significance for me!” John gave a faint smile. His own Focus Technique was far superior to any other methods, so he didn’t think much of the Demon Devouring Cave’s technique at all!
However, John shifted the conversation, saying, “Even though we didn’t obtain any treasures, the journey was not in vain…”
Observing the smile on John’s face, Stanlee also responded with a slight smile, “Mr. White, are you referring to the soul remnant that suddenly appeared in your consciousness field?”
John was taken aback, looking at Stanlee with a hint of surprise! He hadn’t brought up the matter of the shattered soul with Stanlee, yet unexpectedly, he was seen right through! Indeed, Stanlee’s research on the soul had truly reached its pinnacle!
John gave an awkward smile and said, “Mr. Stark, I won’t hide it from you. Indeed, I rescued a soul remnant from the Demon Devouring Cave, and it now resides within my consciousness field.”
Upon seeing John’s acknowledgment, Stanlee curiously asked, “Mr. White, the Demon Devouring Cave is so formidable. I presume the soul remnant inside must be no ordinary being. Do you know which Demon Lord’s soul remnant it might be?”
“I’m not sure either. This soul remnant has lost its memory, not even knowing who it is anymore. Therefore, I would like to ask Mr. Stark for assistance, to see if he could help this fragmented soul regain its memory. Once its memories are restored, perhaps we can learn many unheard things from this soul remnant.” John wanted to help Stanlee restore the memory of the old man soul remnant.
“I’ll give it a try, but I’ve never helped a soul remnant regain its memory before, so I can’t guarantee full success!” Even Stanlee couldn’t guarantee it. After all, he had never done something like that before!
“All right, thank you very much, Mr. Stark!” John nodded in agreement! Since he had to help the old man recover his memory, John decided to stay temporarily at Soul Demon Sect. Fitz was also in Soul Demon Sect, closely following Tessa with affection! That made the anger in Trent’s heart grow increasingly intense!
Three days after John arrived at Soul Demon Sect, it was only then that Stanlee led John into an underground chamber! Within that secluded chamber, four crucibles were emitting wisps of blue smoke, filling the entire room with their ethereal haze.
Although the room was filled with a blue haze, John didn’t feel choked at all. On the contrary, this blue smoke had a faint fragrance, which was very soothing to the senses!
“Mr. White, please release the soul remnant within you. I’ll try to see if I can help it regain its memory!” Stanlee spoke to John!
“Do we need to let it out now?” John was taken aback!
The elderly man’s soul remnant had always wanted to leave John’s consciousness field. Since he couldn’t control John, he certainly didn’t want to stay in John’s consciousness field and become John’s puppet! It was merely because John had the Golden Tome in his consciousness field that the soul remnant couldn’t escape! If the soul remnant were to be released at that moment, and it didn’t return to John’s body, all of John’s efforts have been in vain!
Stanlee noticed John’s apprehension and thus said, “Mr. White, the soul is incredibly mysterious. If it’s within you, I can’t manipulate it. However, rest assured, even if that soul remnant leaves your body, it cannot escape this place. Within these four crucibles, the substance being burned was none other than soul flower pollen. It took over a thousand years to gather this amount. The lingering soul, steeped in the fumes of soul flower pollen, might just be able to regain some of its memories. Should you leave this room, the soul remnant will quickly dissipate, so Mr. White, you can rest assured.”
Upon hearing Stanlee speak in that manner, John finally felt a bit more at ease!
“Young man,” the elder said.
“Since I have agreed to reside within you, I will not flee. If you truly assist me in regaining my memory, I will also bestow upon you a great opportunity.” The elderly spirit spoke within John’s consciousness field!
“All right, you’ve just heard it yourself. Don’t even think about escaping from here, or else your soul remnant will dissipate, and you will truly vanish forever.” John spoke to the old man!
“Don’t worry, even though I’ve lost my memory, I’m not foolish.” The elder was growing somewhat impatient! He too wished to regain his memory quickly so he could understand why he was trapped in a decrepit cave!
John released his spiritual awareness, allowing the elder’s soul remnant to depart from the body! Upon seeing the appearance of the soul remnant, Stanlee was taken aback, his face full of disbelief!
“This… How does this soul remnant still bear shackles? Are there still chains in this world that can bind a spirit?” Stanlee was utterly perplexed. After all, the soul was a spiritual entity, and aside from arcane arrays, there was no way to trap it!
“Mr. Stark, could you please unlock these shackles for him first?” John asked!
“Let me give it a try. I’ve never encountered this before, a soul remnant bound in chains. It seemed that whoever sealed him intended to ensure he could never be reincarnated and even wanted him to endure endless torment. What kind of deep-seated hatred could lead someone to shackle even a soul?” Stanlee exclaimed with deep emotion.
“Once I regain my memory and find out who tormented me, I will make sure they pay back a hundredfold!” the elder scoffed coldly!
“Even if you’ve regained your memory, you’re still nothing more than a mere soul. Since they were able to kill you and even shackle your soul, it proves that they are more powerful than you. You should focus on how you’re going to repay me in the future!” John couldn’t help but give the old man a disdainful glance! In such a state, the soul remnant was still contemplating revenge.
“Rest assured, even though I’ve lost my memory, my strength is not something a minor Tribulator cultivator like you can compare to. As long as I regain my memory, helping you advance to Ultimate Realm will not be a problem!” The elder spoke with great confidence!
“Upon ascending to Ultimate Realm, what need would I have for you? What I require is your assistance in the celestial realm. Once we reach there, you can serve as my advisor.” If John was only focused on advancing to Ultimate Realm, he didn’t need to pay any attention to the old man! As long as there were sufficient resources, John could definitely ascend to Ultimate Realm!
Upon hearing John’s somewhat exaggerated claims, the elder scoffed, “What’s this? You’ve just achieved Tribulator cultivation level, and you’re already thinking about the celestial realm? Do you really believe you can ascend to immortality? Even though I have lost my memory, I know that among the mortal cultivators, even if they practiced for thousands of years, only a handful could ascend to the celestial realm. Even though you, young man, indeed possess an extraordinary and incredibly robust physique, are you so certain that you can ascend to the celestial realm?”
John threatened the old man, saying, “Whether I can ascend or not, it’s no longer your concern. Don’t forget, you are now my captive. If you displease me, I can scatter your soul to the winds, making you disappear forever…”
“You…” Although the old man was dissatisfied, he dared not say anything more. After all, what John said was true! At that moment, he was merely a soul remnant. John could obliterate him at any moment, causing him to vanish forever!
Seeing that John was about to start arguing with the old man, Stanlee quickly intervened, “Perhaps I should first remove the shackles from this elder!”
Observing the faintly discernible soul remnant, Stanlee dared not to be the slightest bit careless. Subsequently, with a wave of his hand, a large amount of green smoke swirled around the old man’s soul remnant! The figure of the elder gradually became clear, and on his withered face, two large eyes shone with exceptional brightness!
As the green smoke grew thicker, the old man’s soul remnant began to struggle fiercely. His once distinct form gradually became more and more blurred!
Upon seeing the situation, John hurriedly asked, “Mr. Stark, what’s going on? Please, don’t let him die.”
“Mr. White, the shackles on this soul remnant are not tangible, but rather, they are illusory. They confine the soul remnant, preventing it from breaking free. Therefore, if you wish to remove these shackles, you must strike directly at the heart of the soul remnant!” Stanlee explained to John.
“Are you suggesting that this shackle never existed, but was merely a figment of imagination?” John exclaimed with a face full of shock!
“Yes, it should be like this, just as if someone was suffering from delusions, imagining that they were being pursued. As a result, they were caught in an endless flight, even though in reality, no one was after them. However, in their world, the pursuit was a genuine existence. It’s only through my careful observation just now that I made the discovery!”
Stanlee was meticulously explaining things to John! In an instant, John had a moment of realization. After all, a soul remnant was a spiritual entity, and to think of binding it with physical shackles was clearly somewhat impossible!
During the time John was conversing with Stanlee, a sudden flash of green light sparkled amidst the dense green smoke! Accompanied by streaks of green light piercing through the old man’s soul remnant, the elder let out a series of low growls! Quickly, the shackles on the old man’s soul remnant began to fade away. Along with the disappearance of those shackles, an aura began to emanate and rise from the old man’s body! Even if it was just a wisp of a soul remnant, the aura emanating from the old man left John and Stanlee in utter shock!
“Which grand demon lord from the celestial realm is this?” Stanlee exclaimed with a face full of shock. After all, a soul remnant that emanated such an aura could not possibly be a fallen cultivator from the celestial realm!
Just as John and Stanlee were astounded by the aura of the old man’s soul remnant, a sudden beastly roar echoed out!
Stanlee was taken aback. “Where did that sound come from?”
John was taken aback. He hadn’t even reacted when, astonishingly, the Celestial Devourer had escaped from his storage ring on its own! Only the Celestial Devourer could freely enter and exit the storage ring without John’s mental summoning!
“What… What kind of monster is this?”
Upon seeing the Celestial Devourer, Stanlee was instantly taken aback! He was still unaware that it was precisely because of the Celestial Devourer that he had survived the lightning tribulation, thereby extending his lifespan!
“Mr. Stark, don’t be afraid, this is the Celestial Devourer, it won’t harm you!” John hurriedly explained, but he was also quite curious. Why did the Celestial Devourer suddenly come out?
John was taken aback as he saw the Devouring Beast heading toward the old man’s soul remnant. The Celestial Devourer had the ability to consume everything. If it were to swallow the old man’s soul remnant, it would be the end!
“Little one, come back!” John roared, but it seemed as though the Devouring Beast was completely ignoring his words!
Upon seeing the Celestial Devourer, the old man’s soul remnant was momentarily taken aback. He then extended his hand, astonishingly caressing the Celestial Devourer! The Celestial Devourer lay docile on the ground, making no move to attack the old man’s soul remnant! That scene left John utterly dumbfounded!
“Such a familiar scent. This beast’s aura is so familiar…” the old man muttered to himself! Celestial Devourer extended its tongue, ready to lick the elder. However, it found that it couldn’t touch him at all. The elder was a soul remnant. Although visible, he was untouchable!
Stanlee also noticed that the Celestial Devourer seemed very familiar with the old man, so he curiously asked, “Mr. White, it seems like your spirit beast is quite familiar with this elder!”
John didn’t utter a word. Instead, he was intently watching the Celestial Devourer following the old man! Suddenly, it seemed as if John had thought of something, his face filled with shock as he exclaimed, “Could it be that you are the Vermilion Demon Lord from level nine celestial realm? The Celestial Devourer is your mount, which is why you found it familiar. Moreover, the Celestial Devourer is also accustomed to your aura, which is why it emerged from the storage ring after your aura burst forth!”
John recalled the time when he was in the Celestial Battlefield when he encountered Fire Spirit Lord. Fire Spirit Lord had mentioned that the Celestial Devourer was the mount of Vermilion Demon Lord. However, there had been no signs of Vermilion Demon Lord ever visiting Ethereal Realm. Thus, how could the beast core of the Celestial Devourer appear in Ethereal Realm? It seemed that Vermilion Demon Lord had been slain by someone. His residual spirit was suppressed and trapped within Demonia Mountain, specifically in a cave. It was safe to assume that his mount, the Celestial Devourer, must have also met its end!
The beast egg that John received was likely laid by the Celestial Devourer just before its death. By a stroke of fate, it ended up in John’s possession! It was clear that Vermilion Demon Lord had been suppressed beneath Demonia Mountain, likely before the Celestial Battle had taken place. From that perspective, it seemed that the legend of Demonia Mountain must indeed be true.
Vermilion Demon Lord must be the great demon who, according to legend, was suppressed under Demonia Mountain! As for the true extent of Vermilion Demon Lord’s power, John had no idea as Fire Spirit Lord had never mentioned it to him! However, living in the level nine celestial realm, one’s strength would certainly not be weak!
“Vermilion Demon Lord? What kind of demon is this, Mr. White? I’ve never heard of it before…” Curiously, Stanlee asked! The old man himself looked utterly bewildered.
“You say I am the Vermilion Demon Lord, living in the level nine celestial realm? How did you know?” The elder couldn’t recall who he was. Upon hearing the name “Vermilion Demon Lord,” he found it utterly unfamiliar!
“It was during the Celestial Battlefield when I heard a person named Fire Spirit Lord say that the Celestial Devourer was your mount. Since the Celestial Devourer is so close to you, you must be Vermilion Demon Lord!” John recounted the events he had heard to the elder!
The elder pondered for a moment, but it seemed as if he couldn’t recall anything. Consequently, he shook his head and said, “I don’t know who Fire Spirit Lord is, nor do I know who I am!”
After he finished speaking, his aura gradually receded. The Celestial Devourer circled around the old man’s soul remnant once, then swiftly returned to the storage ring of John!
“Mr. Stark, you should restore his memory first. Once his memory is restored, everything will be understood!” John was growing rather impatient! If the old man was indeed Vermilion Demon Lord, a great demon living in the level nine celestial realm, then for John, it was indeed a cause for great joy! In the consciousness field, there lived a formidable demon. Would John still fear that he wouldn’t be able to make his way into the celestial realm in the future?
“All right, I’ll give it a try…” Stanlee nodded, but at that moment, he had absolutely no idea what was going on! Knowing that the other party was a great demon lord descended from the celestial realm, even if it was just a soul remnant, helping them regain their memory was not an easy task!
“Sir, I’m going to help you regain your memory. The process might be a bit uncomfortable, so I hope you can bear with it. Please, whatever you do, don’t lose your temper!”
Upon learning the identity of the old man, Stanlee became even more humble. After all, the old man was a great demon lord from the celestial realm! If he truly offended the old man, then his Soul Demon Sect would be gone!
“Come at me if you wish. I’m not as delicate as you think.” Vermilion Demon Lord nodded and spoke!
The sight of Stanlee was one of solemnity, his hands forming numerous complex incantations. Subsequently, the surrounding green smoke transformed into thin threads. As Stanlee’s hand fell, countless threads began to burrow toward the head of Vermilion Demon Lord! The soul remnant of Vermilion Demon Lord trembled gently, as a series of eerie cries echoed! Immediately following, a faint blue aura formed at the fingertips of Stanlee.
As this light blue aura entered the soul remnant of Vermilion Demon Lord, the trembling of the Demon Lord intensified! Quickly, cold sweat filled the forehead of Stanlee, his eyes bulging out like alarm bells!
Boom! Suddenly, the soul remnant of the Vermilion Demon Lord erupted in a golden radiance, instantly shattering all of Stanlee’s aura. The immense force sent Stanlee flying backwards!
“Mr. Stark!” Seeing the situation, John hurriedly stepped forward to help Stanlee up!
At that moment, Stanlee’s face was pale, his body weak as he said, “His power is too terrifying. Even if only a soul remnant remains, he still possesses the ability to counterattack automatically. I’m afraid my cultivation level is insufficient to help him regain his memory! If we could find someone stronger, someone who understands the soul, perhaps they could help him regain his memory…”
Upon hearing that, John was momentarily at a loss for words. Where on earth could he find someone more powerful than Vermilion Demon Lord? Even if he ascended to the celestial realm at that moment, it was likely that he wouldn’t encounter someone as powerful as the Vermilion Demon Lord for quite some time. After all, that was a person who lived in the level nine of celestial realm.
“It seemed that all there was left to do was to wait patiently.” With a sense of helplessness, John glanced at Vermilion Demon Lord. Originally, John had hoped to help Vermilion Demon Lord recover lost memory as it would have been a great assistance to him! However, it seemed there was no one to rely on, only himself!
Seeing the look on John’s face, Vermilion Demon Lord knew what he was thinking. Thus, he said, “Even if I don’t regain my memory, there are some things that are innate to me, enough for you to learn, young man. I won’t be living in your consciousness field for nothing. Look at your disappointed face!”
“Now that you’re free from your shackles, perhaps you’ll gradually recall some things. Just stay at ease within my consciousness field!” After John finished speaking, his spiritual sense enveloped the soul remnant of Vermilion
Demon Lord, and then once again, he returned it to his own consciousness field! “Mr. White, I’m truly sorry that I wasn’t able to assist you…” Stanlee spoke to John with a hint of embarrassment!
“Mr. Stark, you’ve already helped me a great deal. I’ve been a bother at Soul Demon Sect for many days. It’s time for me to leave!” Since the memory of the Vermilion Demon Lord could not be restored, there was no need for John to stay in Soul Demon Sect any longer. He had to find the Demonia Stone to help Old-Geezer with physical body restoration.
“Mr. White, the depths of Demonia Mountain are fraught with danger and utterly lawless. Moreover, you are currently under a Decree of Execution from the Demon Sealing Alliance. I suspect many people are out to take your life! My Soul Demon Sect is still relatively safe. Why not stay a bit longer, Mr. White?” Stanlee spoke to John!
“Mr. Stark, the reason I ventured deep into the heart of Demonia Mountain was not only to investigate the Demon Devouring Cave but also to accomplish a task of greater importance to search for the Demonia Stone.” John revealed his purpose!
“Demonia Stone?” Stanlee was taken aback. “Mr. White, the Demonia Stone is used for reconstructing the physical body. I’m not sure what you need it for? Didn’t I already help your friend reconstruct his physical body? Besides, your friend’s cultivation level is too low. He doesn’t even need the Demonia Stone. Only cultivators who have reached the Tribulator cultivation level or above need to use the Demonia Stone to reconstruct their physical bodies. This allows them to maintain the robustness of their bodies to the greatest extent, preventing their physical bodies from becoming too weak and mismatched with their cultivation level, which could lead to a decrease in power or damage to their physical bodies.” Stanlee was explaining the use of the Demonia Stone to John, under the impression that John was unaware of it!
John followed up with Stanlee, ‘saying, “Mr. Stark, I understand. I’m seeking the Demonia Stone for another friend. He has now taken over a body, but it has limited his power. Therefore, he wishes to rebuild his physical form and must find the Demonia Stone. My friend must certainly be at a level beyond Tribulator. As for the exact level he could reach, I’m not quite sure…”
Upon hearing that, Stanlee couldn’t help but give a bitter smile. “Mr. White, just how many friends do you have who are left with nothing but their soul bodies? And each one is of a higher realm than the last…”
John was also helpless. Both Daddy-O and Old-Geezer were only soul remnants. Only Baal had his body. However, John had no idea where Baal had disappeared to! John bowed respectfully toward Stanlee and spoke!
“Mr. Stark, it is my duty to fulfill the tasks entrusted to me by others. Since my friend has asked me to find the Demonia Stone, I must go and search for it. Therefore, I must take my leave!”
“Mr. White,” Stanlee said. “The Demonia Stone from that day is an extremely precious item. Moreover, in the entire celestial realm, only in the depths of Demonia Mountain can one find such a stone. It is very hard to locate.”
“I know it won’t be easy, but I have to search nonetheless. I firmly believed that as long as I put in the effort, I would eventually find it.” John spoke with great confidence!
Upon seeing John’s determination to find the Demonia Stone, Stanlee fell silent for a moment before saying, “Mr. White, I know where the Demonia Stone is.”
Upon hearing that, John immediately exclaimed excitedly, “Mr. Stark, where can we find the Demonia Stone?”
“Hundreds of kilometers to the southwest from here, there existed a place known as Demonia Sect. Rumor has it that ever since Demonia Mountain came into existence, Demonia Sect had always thrived there. Therefore, it was certain that within Demonia Sect, one would find the Demonia Stone. I have some connections with Demonia Sect. There were times when people from Demonia Sect asked us in Soul Demon Sect to rebuild a few disciples, so we’ve always maintained contact. I could give it a try, see if I can obtain a piece of Demonia Stone for you, Mr. White. However, the Demonia Stone is incredibly precious, so I can’t be sure that Demonia Sect will definitely give it up. All we can do is try our luck,” Stanlee said!
“Mr. Stark, I truly cannot thank you enough. I can accompany you to Demonia Sect. When the time comes, I can exchange spirit coins, resources, or other treasures.” John was extremely pleased.
As long as he knew where the Demonia Stone was, that was all he needed! With that, John no longer needed to search aimlessly. Regardless of the cost, John was determined to get his hands on the Demonia Stone!
“Mr. White, given your current status, it’s not suitable for you to show up in public. I think it’s best for you to wait at my Soul Demon Sect!” suggested Stanlee. John was a walking repository of resources. Among those who had received the Decree of Execution from Demon Seal Alliance, there were hardly a few who could resist being tempted upon seeing John!
“Mr. Stark, there’s no need to worry,” John reassured. “I have the Impersonation Technique. A simple change of appearance will suffice!”
As John spoke, his figure rapidly transformed, quickly morphing into a middle-aged man with a beard! Upon seeing the situation, Stanlee could only nod in agreement with John!
