"Su Luo! Su Luo!"
At this moment, all of Wei Changli's resentment was directed at Su Luo.
Ever since meeting Su Luo, Wei Changli felt that everything had gone wrong. Now, even a minor character didn't seem to take him seriously.
They even said things like they were far inferior to Su Luo.
The more he thought about it, the angrier he became.
Crack! Crash!
Sounds of things shattering echoed throughout the room.
Wei Changli's rationality was nearly gone.
In the midst of his extreme anger, he broke through.
Late-stage Golden Core!
He hadn't expected to break through at this moment, as it had been stuck for quite some time.
The joy he had imagined didn't come, but the inner turmoil was gradually subsiding.
The boost in strength gave him a sense of security.
He sat down, staring blankly ahead, lost in thought.
He kept considering, making internal decisions, and his gaze slowly grew determined.
Finally, he made a life-or-death decision.
He was going to kill Su Luo!
He could no longer endure a life threatened by Su Luo.
Once he figured it out, Wei Changli finally cracked a smile.
He felt much lighter.
It was simple—kill Su Luo, then do whatever it takes to survive.
This time, I won't fear death.
There’s no turning back!
...
The Seven-Colored Secret Realm opened, and Wei Changli led eight subordinates to find Su Luo.
"Su Luo, it's time, the Seven-Colored Secret Realm has begun," Wei Changli said with a smile.
Su Luo looked Wei Changli up and down: "Oh, you're in great shape. Is something good happening?"
"Hmph, entering the Seven-Colored Secret Realm isn't good enough?"
"Not just because of that, I think."
"It's because of that."
Of course, it wasn't. Wei Changli had already planned to kill Su Luo.
With this idea, Wei Changli began recalling and analyzing Su Luo.
Although Su Luo had recently broken through to the Golden Core, his true strength likely far surpassed that.
Previously, Wei Changli had unleashed his full strength against Su Luo, but strangely, his own men had been injured, while Su Luo remained unscathed.
This made Wei Changli suspect that Su Luo was hiding considerable power, so he had to be cautious.
The first insurance was the Seven-Colored Secret Realm.
As everyone knows, only those at the Golden Core level could enter the secret realm.
If Su Luo could get in, it would only mean he was at the Golden Core level.
Wei Changli had already brought along his eight most formidable subordinates.
Nine Golden Core experts attacking one—how could they lose?
The second insurance.
Once inside the secret realm, they would separate Su Luo and set up the Ferocious Prison Array.
This array was both offensive and defensive, extremely dangerous.
With these two insurance measures, it was a done deal, very secure.
Kill Su Luo in the secret realm, then quickly find treasures.
If they could find good treasures and offer them to the Demon Lord, perhaps the Demon Lord would take a liking and save him from the Eastern Extreme Demon Realm.
If not, he’d have to disappear without a trace.
Wei Changli didn’t want to give up his status as one of the Seven Sons, but he couldn’t endure Su Luo’s threats any longer.
Everything was planned.
Su Luo couldn’t tell why Wei Changli was in such a good mood, but it didn’t matter—he wasn’t a threat.
It wasn’t arrogance, just fact.
This time, however, the subordinates Wei Changli brought were different, their overall strength significantly higher.
In the original plot, Wei Changli had given spots to promisingDevil Blades.
Perhaps his threats made Wei Changli change his plan.
But this wasn’t an issue—strong Devil Blades were still manageable; Lin Xuan and the others could handle them.
On the way to the Seven-Colored Secret Realm, Su Luo quietly began writing in his diary.
[Secret realms are nothing more than places to give the protagonist benefits.]
[Sure, and to deliver enemies.]
[I can enter the secret realm, which naturally means I’m here to take a beating for Lin Xuan, with Wei Changli being the one to deliver the beating.]
[Once inside the secret realm, I’ll chase a golden mouse, separate from the group, and at that time, I’ll meet Lin Xuan.]
[Rivals meeting naturally leads to heated confrontation, and with my rapid growth since joining the devil path…]
[I feel overconfident, extremely overconfident, so I’ll demonstrate the might of my devil techniques.]
[Not bad, I’ll gain a slight advantage, even injuring Lin Xuan.]
[The first round—a complete victory, my only actual win, followed by getting completely dominated.]
[Until I’m beaten to a pulp, then I’ll flee in panic.]
[The secret realm’s monsters suddenly appear to help me, which is how I manage to escape, lucky indeed.]
[Being beaten by me naturally means the next target is my big brother.]
[In a miraculous escape, I return to Wei Changli’s side, where I’ll surely ask him to avenge me, just as Wei Changli also has a grudge against Lin Xuan.]
[The second round of Lin Xuan vs. Wei Changli begins.]
[At this time, Wei Changli’s prestige is still pretty decent, at least much stronger than me.]
[This time, Wei Changli will go all out, initially dominating, then being slain, no surprises.]
[Lin Xuan’s current strength is far beyond what Wei Changli first encountered.]
[Wei Changli, being so afraid of death, will definitely flee, but he won’t be as lucky as me. Lin Xuan will catch up and kill him.]
[Lin Xuan single-handedly reduces the Heavenly Demon Seven Sons yet again.]
[With backups already in place, further reductions will require selecting suitable candidates from the vast Heavenly Demon Sect disciples, but that’s a matter for later.]
[In the secret realm, besides eliminating Wei Changli, Lin Xuan encounters numerous opportunities.]
[The Millennium Tree, brimming with life energy, bears fruits that can heal all wounds, but the guardian beast is the formidable Millennium Earth Dragon, far beyond the reach of a Golden Core expert.]
[Lin Xuan lucked out, encountering the Millennium Earth Dragon and the Seven-Clawed Wolf locked in battle, allowing him to steal a few fruits.]
[The Fragrance Flower Field, which can soothe the mind, weaken demons, and with high talent, even lead to enlightenment.]
...
[In short, this time, not only did Lin Xuan reap rich rewards, but even the Seven Stars Sword Sect disciples following him benefited greatly, their growth rapid.]
[The future of the Seven Stars Sword Sect is bright.]
Su Luo closed his diary and continued his journey with Wei Changli and the others.
[Diary completed, rewards: Speed +2, Defense +4.]
[Acquired special ability: Heavenly Cloud Catastrophe.]
[Convert the clouds in the sky into lightning for attack, with the formula being...]
The formula was incomprehensible, but Su Luo could try it out to see the actual effect.
In the distance, a large cloud transformed into lightning, instantly striking down.
Oh, it had the power of a Foundation Establishment cultivator.
Just a test, and Su Luo discovered a powerful advantage of this skill.
That was, it didn't consume anything of his own.
That's right, as long as there were clouds in the sky, he could use it.
Su Luo called this skill the "Free Skill," as it leeched power from nature.
It was quite useful, even though Su Luo already had countless techniques, he still found this one valuable.
Of course, the range was limited to what an ordinary person could see.
That was sufficient.
Watching the sky for clouds—the more clouds, the stronger the attack.
But walking on clouds was out of the question.
Cloud-creating art was something Su Luo could do, but this spell consumed energy.
The energy spent creating clouds was better used in executing a strong technique, which would have better results than the power of the Heavenly Cloud Catastrophe.
Not worth it.
