Chapter 423 - 235 Prepare for Breakthrough 3
And there was more to come.
Su Nan thought for a moment and took out another corpse.
It was a huge fish corpse.
Seeing the corpse in an instant, all the members of the Demon Hunting Bureau present couldn’t help but gasp.
Everyone could feel the aura emanating from the corpse, an aura only a King- level being possessed!
“Demon King! This is the corpse of a Demon King.”
The old man thought of something and said, “Could this be… the White Water Demon King?”
“It is indeed the White Water Demon King.” Su Nan nodded.
“Really, the White Water Demon King, how did you do it, young friend?” Even the Emperor-level old man couldn’t keep his composure at the moment.
Who could comprehend how, at the Xuan Stage realm, he could hunt a Peak King-level monster?
The crowd was all looking at Su Nan, waiting for Su Nan’s next words.
Seeing this, Su Nan could only briefly describe the event of being captured by the White Water Demon King and entering the Divine Ruins.
Of course, he left out many details. In his account, the White Water Demon King was severely injured by a powerful soul-eating demon, and he simply took advantage of the situation.
“Divine Ruins? You actually made it out alive from the depths of the Divine Ruins?”
Listening to Su Nan’s words, everyone was even more shocked. Although most of the people present hadn’t been to the Divine Ruins, they still knew that as one of the top ten Forbidden Areas of Life, there must be unspeakable horrors within.
Su Nan smiled and said, “It was purely due to luck and chance that I was able to kill him. If it weren’t for him being severely wounded by that powerful Soul- eating Demon, I would have had no chance.”
The old man sighed, “Even a King-level demon on the brink of death is not something an ordinary Xuan Stage Martial Artist can handle. If you were able to kill him, it means you already possess the strength to fight against a King-level creature.”
The old man looked deeply at Su Nan, shocked by his growth rate.
It was important to know that the Outsiders had only arrived a little over a month ago, yet within this time, there was already someone who had grown strong enough to kill a Demon King, which was simply unbelievable.
Little did they know that Su Nan still had two more King-level corpses on him.
A moment later, two members of the Demon Hunting Bureau totaled the points of the demon corpses and said, “These Xuan Stage Demon Beast corpses are worth a total of 12,300 demon-slaying points.”
“This Demon King corpse is worth 32,700 demon-slaying points.”
“In total, there are 44,000 demon-slaying points.”
Although the White Water Demon King’s realm was at the Late King Rank when he was killed, it was Su Nan’s doing. The King was once an authentic Peak King-level, so the points were calculated based on the original strength of the White Water Demon King.
“One Demon King is worth 32,700 demon-slaying points!”
“The calculation method for demon-slaying points is the same as contribution points. This means that if I can hunt a Peak King-level monster in the side quests, I would have enough contribution points to exchange for the ancient scriptures, wouldn’t I?”
Su Nan couldn’t help but think.
Unfortunately, with his current strength, even if Wang Nan broke through to the Xuan Stage, it would still be impossible to hunt a Peak King-level monster.
In the Divine Ruins, the White Water Demon King couldn’t command the Power of Heaven and Earth and hunting it required Su Nan to pay a huge price.
If it was in the outside world, Su Nan feared that he wouldn’t even have the strength to fight back against the White Water Demon King.
“It’s impossible to hunt a Peak King-level beast, but with the cooperation of the Great Princess, there might still be a chance to hunt down an Early King Rank Demon.” Su Nan thought of the Great Princess and couldn’t help but secretly plan in his heart.
However, every small realm of the King-level had enormous gaps. A Peak King- level demon was worth more than 30,000 contribution points, while an Early King-level demon was worth only just over 4,000 points.
Compared to hunting a King-level demon, it would be more cost-effective to hunt two Peak Xuan-level monsters.
When the contribution points were in hand, Su Nan exchanged all the demon corpse essence blood he’d gathered.
Eventually, he obtained a total of 120 drops of Xuan Stage Demon Beast Essence Blood and four drops of king-level demon essence blood.
Not wanting to use the contribution points yet, Su Nan left the Demon Hunting Bureau.
Half an hour later, another figure entered the Demon Hunting Bureau.
It was no one else.
It was the avatar transformed into Wang Nan.
As the avatar handed the divine weapon to the Bureau Chief, Wang Nan’s escort mission for the divine weapon was completed, and he received 3,000 contribution points, bringing his available contribution points to 19,800!
He was only a little over 100 short of being able to exchange for a divine ability.
Afterward, Su Nan triggered a side quest from the Bureau Chief using the same method he had previously used.
This time, instead of assigning him a specific node, the Bureau Chief let Su Nan choose his own.
Su Nan thought for a moment and chose a node not far from Qian Shou Town.
Afterward, Su Nan, in the identity of Wang Nan, also obtained the opportunity to enter the Demon Hunting Bureau’s Treasure Vault.
However, Su Nan didn’t use it immediately. He planned to wait for the curse to be lifted before he went.
After leaving the Demon Hunting Bureau, Su Nan immediately found a secluded spot, eagerly took out the Magic Ling Grass, and prepared to attempt a breakthrough.
