Chapter 407 - Birth Of A Big Fiend

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation  Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Three days later, Vigilante A flew over in a swoosh and reaped the fees, leaving the merest trifle… No, valuable experiences with its participants.

After great difficulties, “Infernal Flame” the volcanic rat, who was a rugged man with a dark face, finally found its monetary source. On top of that, he was checked from inside out repeatedly by Vigilante A’s butler using morality, before he was deemed eligible for the auction.

It took him a lot of effort to succeed in the auction. When he gathered his concentration to listen to Vigilante A, he felt energetic and his face reddened, which was a special symptom of the volcanic rats when they were being enlightened.

He was elated at once, as he felt that he probably had an eighty percent success rate for the first step.

The only thing was the fee was quite expensive, such that he had no idea how long it would take for him to repay all of it…

He hoped that he would not end up like the fat spirit from before, who gained nothing at all, and wasted the three hundred high quality evil spirits that were given in exchange for it.

He shut his eyes to gather his focus together, then walked into the Divine Gate without turning back.

Countless people set their eyes on him. So far only two candidates had successfully passed the first step, a dragon and an insect…

This time, it was a disreputable devil rat who seemed to be revealing himself for the first time in public, could he succeed?

Was the Dragon God’s experience useful after all?

Lie Huo took a leap in, then the other powerhouses saw him being startled at the first wide jade step.

He looked just like those competitors who had fallen into the step’s dreamland from the beginning.

“As expected, he can’t do it either!” Somebody sighed and said.

“It looks like we don’t have to acquire Vigilante A’s experience anymore, it’s just a scam!”

“That’s right, who knows if he has any special relationship with that insect, he might have helped it succeed in climbing the steps.”

However, a brief moment later, the dark rugged man burst forth a scorching aura!

The air around him seemed to be burning, then his whole body shook as if he had woken up from a deep slumber.

“Indeed, a sauna should smell like lava!” He mumbled to himself then stepped onto the first step without hesitation and arrived at the second step!

“What?”

“He actually crossed it?!” Many powerhouses looked at each other in utter shock.

Elder Ancestor Bai furrowed his brows tightly then glanced somewhere else with an unnoticeable look.

Over there, a black dog was resting on a cloud, he looked at its back.

A white hamster curled on top of it and was leisurely munching on chestnuts, as if this huge event had nothing to do with it at all.

This volcanic rat was able to pass through the first step after it woke up, whereas he turned around and walked out of the gate even though he woke up as well, what did it actually mean?

How could he not want to know the truth?

This confusion kept bothering Elder Ancestor Bai, he could not feel at ease at all. This was the first time he failed to figure out his son’s thoughts.

He thought to himself, ‘Haha, it looks like he has grown up, I can’t understand my own son anymore.’

“Now, it’s all up to that volcanic rat if he can leap through the second step in a spurt of energy!” After the demons were shocked, they said this with excitement.

No matter what, they demons were no longer stuck at an ascension progress of 0!

Nonetheless, the next thing they knew, the volcanic rat turned around strenuously then walked out of the gate.

“Why? Why is he giving up?!”

“What a coward!”

The demons were feeling extremely indignant, they were about to break the record of the newborn Spiritual Insects Clan in no time, but the volcanic rat decided to give up so easily. If this could be tolerated, what could not be?

Lie Huo exited the Divine Gate by taking just two steps.

Followed by that, the record on the Divine Gate was updated.

“Demons, 2 entered, 8 remaining; ascension progress 1.”

When Lie Huo returned to where the demons were, he was immediately questioned by innumerable demons.

“Brother Lie Huo, why didn’t you just go all the way in one shot?” Elder Ancestor Bai said plainly.

“I can’t tell you why.” Lie Huo shook his head and looked mysterious.

“Hehe, could this be related to Vigilante A’s teaching?” Elder Ancestor Bai guessed the truth easily.

“Sigh, you’re a sly old fox after all…no, an old man with deep foresight, I can’t hide anything from your eyes. Indeed, that’s the case, but I can’t tell you the specific reason due to the Heavenly Oath. Unless the Divine Gate closes, I can’t say it.” Lie Huo said with a face full of regret.

He did not want to be blamed by the demons for no reason, but if he did state his reason, he was afraid that he would be blamed even more. He felt that it was time for him to elevate its powers in a quality lava pond.

“That’s fine, I won’t force you, it’s finally value for money. If I had known sooner, I shouldn’t have…” Elder Ancestor Bai paused.

The demons knew what he was trying to say, obviously he was going to say that he should not have rushed it until Vigilante A demonstrated, so that it would be a definite success once he gained the experience.

Nobody would doubt that the strength of a Royal Giant Rats’ bloodline would be inferior to this volcanic rat.

Right after Elder Ancestor Bai said that, just as the demons were about to comfort him, an abrupt chilliness arose from the demons’ hearts.

“What’s going on?” Somebody shivered.

It was summer at the moment and they were at the center of the Pacific Ocean, near to the equator. Although they were three thousand meters above land, based on the demons’ cultivation level which was Bucket-level and above, it was impossible for them to feel cold.

They looked around them and saw that outside the Divine Gate, almost everyone felt the chilliness, thus they kept moving around.

“It’s really, really, really cold.”

As for the head of Western Devil Rats, Lie Huo the volcanic rat, who was surrounded by them, was trembling intensely.

Considering that he had just broken the “zero” record, though it was not perfect at all, he had surpassed many other volcanic rat demons, yet he was acting worse than an ordinary person at the moment.

When Elder Ancestor Bai reached his hand out, a faint yellow aura appeared and shrouded over his body.

“Thank you, ancestor,” Lie Huo looked like he had just escaped from ice, he quickly expressed his gratitude. “I wonder what that cold was?”

Elder Ancestor Bai stared at him to check him out, he then shook his head and said, “I have no idea as well, perhaps it has something to do with you, Brother Huo.”

“How is this possible?” Lie Huo instantly felt that the other demons were gathering looks at him, he immediately defended himself. “I’ll feel uncomfortable as soon as I leave the fire pool, how is it possible for me to learn this sort of iciness technique?

“Based on my intuition, this coldness is close to the Heavenly Order, even if I’m the reincarnation of a volcanic rat god from the upper realm, it’s impossible for me to pick that up.”

“Hehe, I think there could only be one reason. Brother Huo, you were born out of the blue, your name is recorded on the Divine Gate, and noted in Heavenly Axiom. The extreme aura contained in your body must have awakened a certain icy-cold fiend in extremely deep hiding, such that there was an outburst of it.” Elder Ancestor Bai was experienced after all, he easily gave a reasonable explanation.

“Tss,” The demons around them were appalled, he was truly a warlord from the upper realm, he was one that went straight to the point.

Since they were able to be present at this event, they were naturally well-cultivated from the start, hence they were clear that this explanation was very reasonable.

“Ancestor, I wonder how you’re so certain that it’s a fiend?” Lie Huo slowly recovered from the iciness, he then said with uncertainty.

“Hehe, for a being to cultivate this iciness technique close to the Heavenly Maxim, one has to become a demon, or a devil if not one.” Elder Ancestor Bai shook his head and said.

“I see, you’re right, ancestor.”

All of a sudden, Elder Ancestor Bai was able to regain his lost prestige as he relied on his profound knowledge and sharp vision.

As a leader, he had to be able to state theories and light the way at crucial times.

In term of this, even though the head of Western Devil Rats had succeeded in climbing the first step of the stairway, he was still just a general.

The demons knew very well that the balances in their hearts were leaning towards Elder Ancestor Bai once again.

Upon seeing the situation, Elder Ancestor Bai smiled slightly. He had never thought that this sudden occurrence carried an effect as such, it was the Will of the Heavens!

Doubtlessly, the things that he had done before had earned him quite a number of Heavenly Merits in this realm. As a consequence, he was able to gain luck that could turn misfortunes into blessings.

Where the humans gathered, there was also a heated discussion regarding the sudden chilliness.

Old Master Ma said, unperturbed, “From the way I see it, this is a sign of the birth of a huge fiend!”

“Spiritual master, please enlighten us.” The crowd was shocked, they quickly questioned closely.

Tianjing Fawang did not move an inch, he only looked at Old Master Ma’s performance.

“Haha, this chillness is close to the Heavenly Axiom, it’s definitely because of a certain fiend. As for why it suddenly appeared at this point in time, I believe that it’s probably a warning from the Heavenly Axiom!”

Old Master Ma gave an answer that was totally different from Elder Ancestor Bai’s.

This was very normal, as everyone had different opinions toward the same question, it would be odd instead if everyone had the same opinion.

“Tss…” The crowd was surprised, they said once after another, “The last time Heavenly Axiom sent us a warning was during the danger of the moon’s return, is it possible that this huge fiend is actually comparable to the moon?”

“It’s not necessary that it’s comparable, after all, a moon is a dead object while fiends are living creatures.” Old Master Ma enjoyed every bit of the attention he was getting, he took a deep breath and showed his noble character.

“What should we do now, spiritual master, please guide us.” The crowd pleaded.

“I think, only one person can go against this fiend.” Old Master Ma said seriously.

“Who?”

A figure appeared in everyone’s mind at the same time, that person loathed evil such that everywhere he went, evil beings and demons stayed far away from him.

Besides, many homes started to hang his picture on their doors.

“The bear who’s sound asleep in the Divine Gate, we’ll have to wake it up as soon as possible.”

“Ah???” Instantly, everyone was dumbfounded.

They thought to themselves, ‘That’s completely different from what I was thinking?’

“Spiritual master, shouldn’t we invite the Venerable Dragon God over to subdue the fiend now?” Somebody blurted out, this showed that Vigilante A’s reputation was clearly streets ahead of Old Master Ma.

If that was not that case, nobody would have easily said something like that which could undoubtedly offend him.

“No, no, I also have a slight knowledge in tarots that can go against that fiend, only this sleeping bear can do the job, not the Venerable One. Of course, I’m not saying this to diminish the Venerable One, but in myths, we’re still quite particular about conquering enemies and the path of inhibition. If we’d like to defeat that fiend, we’ll have to seek help from the Spirit Bear.” Old Master Ma said firmly.

Tianjing Fawang had been silent for a long time, he suddenly said, “Could it be that the demon is related to a certain current event?”

Old Master Ma looked up and thought to himself, ‘This monk is acting mysterious and trying to take all the credit again.’

In spite of that, he just said, “You’re truly Fawang from the upper realm, your insight is really out of this world, that was exactly what I’m thinking.”

The others were confused from listening to them, but comparing the cultivation realms of those two masters, Fawang from the upper realm was naturally the more powerful one.

Nevertheless, one should never forget about the mightiness of a local resident, since Old Master Ma was born and raised locally, he has definitely gained more favor from Heavenly Axiom. For all they knew, he might actually obtain special treatment, and they reckoned that he could gain disclosure of a top secret.

‘What’s actually going on?’

The same question went about in everyone’s mind.
