Chapter 436: The demonic mark
Translator: 549690339
Tu Yichen didn’t expect li xiaonian to be a friend of someone he was familiar with, the Holy Light dew. Embarrassed, tu Yichen lifted the sleeve on li xiaonian’s wrist to check his pulse.
At that moment, a black earthworm-like mark had appeared on li xiaonian’s pulse. The mark was very faint, but one could still tell that it was the demon Slayer mark.
Seeing this, tu Yichen’s face was filled with guilt. He spoke into the communication device, ” little sister Xiaosheng, I’m so sorry. Your friend … Has been infected with the demonic mark.
“Tu! One! Dust!”
“If my friend turns into a demon, I won’t let you go!” Gan Xiaotian roared angrily.
Li xiaonian’s heart sank when he heard gan Xiaotian’s roar.
He didn’t know what the demon Slayer mark was, but from gan Xiaotian’s angry expression, it was clear that the matter was very serious, so serious that gan Xiaotian couldn’t handle it.
Gan Xiaotian scolded li xiaonian after roaring, bastard, you didn’t even understand what happened. You actually made a deal with the demon Slayer Pirates. You … You’re simply courting death.
After her anger subsided, gan Xiaotian sighed, ” you’re already on the pirate ship. I can’t do anything about this. Remember, no matter what, don’t use the power of the devil. Don’t think that you can do whatever you want with your strong willpower. Let me put it this way, no one who has been infected with the devil mark has been able to escape. They have all fallen and become the food of the devil. Even tu Yichen, the demon Slayer pirate, who is extremely strong and has a stronger willpower than you by countless times, was not able to escape from it. He has also fallen.
“……”
Li xiaonian’s mind went blank. He asked, ” “What’s a demonic mark?”
the black mark on your hand is a demonic mark. The existence of the mark means that you have been targeted by a demon. “The so-called demons live in mysterious areas. To this day, no one knows what a demon is. Most likely, they are on the demon Slayer battleship. In addition, if you come into contact with or trade with the owner of the demonic mark, there is a certain chance of getting the demonic mark.”
“At the beginning of the demonic mark, it will give you unparalleled power. Within three months, your strength will become stronger and stronger. other than that, once you activate the seal of the evil demon, your strength will increase by several times. The first three times you use it, it might not seem like there’s any backlash, but it’s like a poison that makes you unable to stop. You’ll unconsciously want to use it. Fourth usage … You will completely sink into oblivion, turning into a bloodthirsty monster. You are a mutant and will not die, but your body will be taken over by the demon. It will control your body and kill anyone related to you.”
in other words, once you sink into oblivion, I’ll become your target. Not just me, but all your friends and family will become your hunting targets.
“The demon Slayer Pirates are actually a group of pitiful creatures. Most of them have the mark of a demon on their bodies. Especially tu Yichen, who had fallen twice and killed all the members of the demon Slayer battleship twice. Therefore, don’t be fooled by tu Yichen’s high prestige in the eight great mansions. Everyone is afraid of him. In fact, what the eight Prefecture Masters are afraid of isn’t tu Yichen, but the demon Slayer seal on his body. They’re afraid that they’ll be tricked by accident.”
“Also, from now on, you’re not allowed to trade with anyone except for the internal members of the demon Slayer Pirates. Once a trade is made, there’s a certain chance that you’ll infect the other party with your demon mark. In other words, after today, I won’t contact you, and I won’t make any deals with you. Do you understand what I’m saying?”
……
Gan Xiaotian’s venomous words were like a knife that ruthlessly stabbed into the hearts of tu Yichen and every member on the demon-slaughtering battleship.
Everyone looked dejected.
Only Shi En could not stand it,”Lord Saint, your words are too much. Although we are cursed, we are not as pitiful as you make us out to be. At least, we’re still alive and well.”
“Good my ass.” Gan Xiaotian cursed without mercy, you’re so smug. Tu Yichen has fallen again. Let’s see if you’ll die or not. How many people have died in tu Yichen’s hands? ”
The scar was revealed, and tu Yichen’s pained expression covered his face.
That’s right, there were many people who had died in his hands. His friends and family had all died in his hands. Although it wasn’t his will, it was the devil who controlled his body and executed them one by one. They weren’t mutants, and they couldn’t be resurrected.
Once upon a time, he was such a proud person. Unfortunately, reality gave him a merciless blow. If it wasn’t to prevent the devil from taking his body, he would have committed suicide long ago and would not struggle to live on.
Sometimes, to live, you need more courage.
In this life, his ultimate goal was to find the mysterious demon and kill it at all costs. The name Demon Slayer pirate reminded him that his mission was to kill demons and kill all demons.
Shi En’s face darkened when he saw the pained expression on tu Yichen’s face. Without hesitation, he flicked his finger and destroyed the communicator in li xiaonian’s hand. He looked at tu Yichen and said,”Boss, that woman is talking nonsense. Don’t take it to heart. We won’t blame you for anything.”
As Shi En spoke, the other group of Pirates nodded their heads firmly,”That’s right, boss, we believe in you.”
isn’t it just a demon? as long as we don’t use demonic power, everything will be fine.
boss, we’ve endured for so many years. We have reason to believe that it won’t be difficult to endure for another few hundred years. As long as we find the demon and kill it, the curse on our bodies will naturally disappear.
……
Tu Yichen glanced at his companion and nodded expressionlessly. “I need to go into seclusion for a while. I’ll leave the investigation to you.”
Without waiting for anyone to respond, tu Yichen’s figure flickered and disappeared without a trace.
Knowing what had happened to him, li xiaonian looked at Shi En, a murderous intent flashing through his heart.
If he could, he really wanted to kill this b * stard immediately. If not for him, he wouldn’t have to bear such a despairing curse.
Shi En sensed the killing intent and looked at li xiaonian, the corner of his mouth slightly raised.”We’re Pirates, don’t think of us as too kind. As for now … If you don’t want to miss the best opportunity to improve your strength, I suggest you immediately go into seclusion. There are many cultivation rooms in our demon-slaughtering battleship. It’s up to you whether you want to use them or not.”
With that, Shi En turned and left.
After Shi En left, a pirate with a drunkard’s nose hiccuped,”Don’t blame Shi En, he has a sharp mouth but a soft heart. Everyone in the void Star field is terrified of us. Even among the eight great mansions, not many people dare to come into contact with us, let alone talk about trading. Although we have many treasures, we can’t sell them. Perhaps it’s just as your friend, Lord Saint, said. We’re a group of Pirates who look glamorous on the surface, but in reality, we’re a group of pitiful worms.”
“Shi En brought you here to demonize you, to infect you with the curse. This is an unchangeable fact. However, I can be sure that without your permission, or if you owe him a favor, he would not harm you for no reason. No matter what … Although the demonic mark is terrifying, as long as you don’t use it, it will have no effect on you. The prerequisite is that you can resist the temptation of the demonic mark.”
let’s go. I’ll take you to the cultivation room. I’ll try to improve your strength by a few levels in three months.
The drunkard patted li xiaonian’s shoulder and sighed. As he walked, he nagged,”Shi En is also under a lot of pressure. We haven’t had any new members for more than ten years. On the contrary, thirty-nine of us have died … Not because of revenge, but … According to the rules of the demon Slayer Pirates, whoever uses the power of the demon three times will be killed mercilessly. Of the thirty-nine people who died, thirty-eight of them killed themselves and ended their lives.”
“Therefore!”
The man with the rosacea stared at li xiaonian and said solemnly,”Don’t ever use your demonic power. If there’s a first time, there will be a second time, and a third time. The demonic power is like a super virus, constantly trying to tempt us to use its power. The more we use it, the weaker our resistance. Don’t be fooled by the fact that boss tu is still alive after using his Power Five times. In fact, boss tu is in a state of fighting against the demon at all times. Just now, boss tu left because he was stimulated and his mind fluctuated, allowing the demon to take advantage of this. If boss tu can’t survive this disaster, all of us, including you, will die.”
The two of them walked one after the other, and Li xiaonian listened to them silently.
After a while, the rosacea-nosed man opened a secret room. this is the earth element cultivation room. It matches your element. Now that you’re here, you’re considered half one of us. If you need anything, just tell me. The cultivation resources here are several times, or even dozens of times more than all the elites of the eight Mansions.
Li xiaonian stepped into the secret chamber. Before he even started cultivating, he immediately sensed the rich earth elements in the surroundings. These elements were continuously merging into his body.
At the same time.
Ding …
“You have gained 100 experience points,” the system said.
“You have gained 100 experience points,” the system said.
“You have gained 100 experience points,” the system said.
……
Gaining 100 experience points every second, li xiaonian’s mouth moved as he said,”How should I address you?”
this … the old man with the rosacea shook his head and smiled bitterly,” you can just call me old wine. My name is just a code name. It’s better not to mention it. Train hard, and I’ll see you in three months … Remember, don’t activate the demonic mark because of curiosity. Curiosity kills. Also, there are more than a thousand people on the demon-Slayer battleship who die because of curiosity. I hope you’re not one of them.
“I’ll remember it.” Li xiaonian nodded.
Creak ~
The door of the secret room slowly closed.
Without any disturbance from the others, li xiaonian said with a bitter face, ” even boss tu, who’s comparable to the eight Prefecture Masters, can’t bear the attraction of the evil demon’s power. I’m just a passerby. How long can I last? ”
Even though he had a strong will now, there was a faint desire to kill in the depths of his heart. He wanted to activate the demonic mark. This desire was very weak, but it was like a weed that took root in his heart and could not be erased.
“Forget it, I’ll cultivate first.”
no, the Bulldog is the devil King of Hell and is proficient in curses. Maybe it has a way to deal with it? ”
At this thought, li xiaonian’s eyes flashed as he turned around and entered the chaotic space.
Inside the dimension, everything was as usual. Ashley was cultivating in a fixed position, while the Bulldog was still sleeping.
“Young master.” Heathley opened her eyes.
Li xiaonian extended his hand to block her, refusing to let her approach. “From now on, without my permission, don’t come near me, and don’t touch me.”
“What?” a puzzled look appeared on her face.
I’m currently under the influence of a demonic imprint, ” li xiaonian explained. I’m afraid you’ll be infected if you come into contact with me too much.
“Young master, what is a demonic mark?”
“So, it’s something you don’t know either,” li xiaonian said with a smile.
“Young master, you must be joking. This old servant is just an ordinary soldier. There are thousands of secrets in the universe, and this old servant can’t possibly know everything.”
“You’re right.” Li xiaonian nodded. “The demonic mark is a terrifying curse …” He explained after a pause.
Li xiaonian told everything about the demonic mark to heathley.
young master, ” Sisley said awkwardly, ” I’m not afraid of curses. So, I don’t think you need to be so distant.
“This is an order!”
Li xiaonian said sternly.
“Yes, young master.”
Li xiaonian then turned to look at the Bulldog and said, ” “King of the Universe, I know you must have heard my conversation with heathley. I don’t ask for anything else, but I hope you can give me a hint. The demonic mark has a three-month period of strength enhancement. Or should I say that I don’t want this opportunity, restrain myself, and don’t cultivate?”
Huff … Huff … Huff …
The Bulldog was sleeping soundly without any reaction.
“Thank you for your reminder, senior,” li xiaonian muttered to himself,”I’ll start cultivating now.”
The Bulldog didn’t respond, which at least meant that there was a certain probability that it would only be good to cultivate seriously during the outbreak period of strength within three months.
After all, once the curse broke out and he sank into it, the Bulldog would definitely be one of the targets to be killed.
The Bulldog not waking up to stop him was the best evidence.
After making sure that there were no problems, li xiaonian left the chaotic space and went into seclusion to cultivate.
Weng ~
A large amount of earth elements continuously gushed into li xiaonian’s body. At the same time, his personal experience points kept increasing.
Similarly, his overall combat strength had also increased.
Originally, his combat strength was 2132, but in a short time, it had increased to 2212, an increase of 80 points. This number was very exaggerated.
Ding …
The system said,’you have leveled up to level 92;”
The system said,’you have leveled up to Level 93;”
……
He didn’t need to farm monsters to level up quickly. This feeling was very good, but li xiaonian was still very depressed.
As he became stronger, the demonic mark on his wrist became clearer. It used to be a small earthworm, but now it had become a strange winged snake.
