I Secretly Develop Myself In The Demon World

[Current available demonic power: 295 points]

“Did I complete it just like that?”

“Could it be that the true difficulty of this task lies in the Formation outside?”

Instead of being happy upon completing the task, Su Nan was frowning deeply.

Originally, he thought that the ancient relics within the Death Sand Sea would be the most dangerous part.

However, unexpectedly, there was nothing in the ancient relics, and the truly dangerous thing was the sandification power in the desert.

At this moment, he felt as if he had gone through countless hardships just to open a treasure chest, only to find it empty.

This feeling was unbearable.

“That Du Qiyuan is really ruthless. He didn’t leave me with anything.”

The main reason he came to the Death Sand Sea was not only to complete the task but also to look for a way to enter the Ancient God Tomb.

Although he had completed the task now, he still had no clues on how to enter the Ancient God Tomb.

“If only I could know what Du Qiyuan did here a hundred years ago.”

Sudden inspiration struck Su Nan, as he thought about the Ancient God Tomb.

If he could use the power of the Ancient God Tomb, would he be able to travel back in time to more than a hundred years ago and witness Du Qiyuan entering the Death Sand Sea?

He might even be able to see how Du Qiyuan left this world through the Ancient God Tomb!

At this thought, his eyes lit up, but then he remembered the nature of the Ancient God Tomb and frowned again.

“If I want to see an event from one hundred years ago, I must enter the Ancient God Tomb. Outside the tomb, I can adjust the time I enter the Illusion Realm based on the distance from the tomb.”

“But it doesn’t work inside the tomb. Every entrance to the Illusion Realm inside the tomb is fixed. The first step is one hundred years ago, and the second step is two hundred years ago. I can’t adjust it.”

“Even if I could go back in time to when Du Qiyuan entered the Land of the Lost, it wouldn’t necessarily be in the Death Sand Sea.”

To find out what Du Qiyuan did in the Death Sand Sea back then, both the time and location must be met.

Outside the Ancient God Tomb, he could control the time of entering the Illusion Realm by adjusting the distance, making it much easier.

Once inside the tomb, neither the location nor the time after entering the Illusion Realm was under his control. With this in mind, the difficulty of entering the Illusion Realm precisely when Du Qiyuan entered the Death Sand Sea was considerable.

Suddenly, Su Nan had another idea and his eyes brightened, “Wait, I have the Art of Oblivion!”

“I might be able to temporarily forget other unrelated memories, leaving only the memories of Du Qiyuan and the Death Sand Sea!”

The Art of Oblivion was useful in the outer layer of the Ancient God Tomb, which hinted that the Illusion Realm there was related to memories.

If he only retained the memories of Du Qiyuan and the Death Sand Sea, could it fix his appearance in time and location within the Illusion Realm?

At this thought, Su Nan’s eyes lit up.

However, he didn’t immediately continue with foreknowledge and instead controlled his avatar to return to the Daxuan Royal Palace.

Three hours had passed in the Land of the Lost, and it was now dusk.

In another three hours, it would be midnight. The avatar still had to undergo the Blood Sacrifice Ritual, so he needed to get it back to the Daxuan Royal Palace as soon as possible.

Without delay, he immediately controlled the avatar to leave the Death Sand Sea. After the avatar left, he began to continue with the foreknowledge.

This time, 10 foreknowledge opportunities were consumed.

[In the relics under the current Death Sand Sea, you cannot obtain useful information, so you decide to go to the Ancient God Tomb once again, prepared to use its power to go back to the Death Sand Sea more than one hundred years ago.]

[After the sixth hour, your avatar returns to the Daxuan Royal Palace and begins the Blood Sacrifice Ritual. This is your third time performing the Blood Sacrifice Ritual. Compared to the previous two times, the lost spirit, energy, and mind strength are doubled this time.]

[Fortunately, your spirit, energy, and mind strength are strong, and you are not greatly affected. You suspect that for you, there will be no danger for the first few days of the Blood Sacrifice Ritual. The real danger will only appear on the last day.]

[After eight hours, your real body arrives outside the Ancient God Tomb. Relying on the Art of Oblivion, you successfully enter the tomb.]

[You cast the Art of Oblivion, temporarily forgetting all memories related to Du Qiyuan and the Death Sand Sea. Your memory will only recover after you see the Sand Sea.]

[Your experiment succeeded. When you arrive at the first step of the Ancient God Tomb, you appear in a vast sand sea.]

“It succeeded in one try!”

Su Nan was pleasantly surprised.

Apparently, his idea was right. Changing his memories could indeed affect the illusions he entered.

Unfortunately, after entering the fifth level of the Illusion Realm, the Art of Oblivion was useless, as the illusions there started to involve realms beyond his understanding.

[With the appearance of the sand sea, your memories are restored. At this time, the sand sea is not covered by the power of the Formation, and you explore it, trying to find the entrance to the relics beneath the sand sea.]

[Six hours later, you are greatly disappointed. At this time, although there is no danger in the sand sea, there is also no entrance to the relics. You try to use the Across the Heavens Shift to enter the underground, but you still find nothing.]

[In desperation, you have no choice but to use the Incense Prayer Technique. As the Incense Prayer Technique is used, your Incense fire aspiration force is completely consumed, and the entry to the relics beneath the sand sea appears in front of you. You quickly follow the entry downwards.]

[A minute later, for some reason, this entrance to the sand sea is extremely long. After more than ten minutes of walking, you still haven’t reached the end of the entrance.]

[Two minutes later, you become aware of the problem, but you can only continue downward with determination.]

[Three minutes later, the passage before your eyes suddenly disappears, and you die.]

[Before your death, you realize that although the Incense Prayer Technique was successful this time, it caused unknown consequences due to your insufficient Incense fire aspiration force.]

“It actually triggered unknown consequences?”

“If I had known that I would need to use the Incense Prayer Technique in the Illusion Realm to enter the relics, I wouldn’t have gone to the Death Sand Sea.”

Su Nan sighed, somewhat regretful.

Fortunately, the so-called “unknown consequences” didn’t necessarily occur every time. If he was lucky, he still had a chance. Of course, if he was unlucky, he might be unable to cast it successfully.

“If it doesn’t work, I’ll just wait another day. With my current speed of refining Incense Willpower in my Spirit of Divine Dao, I should be able to gather enough to enter the relics in just one day.”

There were still many foreknowledge opportunities left, so he didn’t give up at this point. After waiting for a while, he used foreknowledge again.

This time, it also cost him 10 foreknowledge opportunities.

“Ten times again, seems like I failed.”

…

[Six hours later, you are greatly disappointed. At this time, although there is no danger in the sand sea, there is also no entrance to the relics. You try to use Across the Heavens Shift to enter the underground, but you still find nothing.]

[In desperation, you have no choice but to use the Incense Prayer Technique. As the Incense Prayer Technique is used, your incense fire aspiration force is completely consumed, and the entrance to the relics beneath the sand sea appears in front of you.]

[You know that your incense fire aspiration force is not enough to support this casting, and the entrance in front of you might be a dead end. However, you don’t hesitate and enter immediately.]

[Unexpectedly, as you follow the passage, an ancient city quickly appears before your eyes. Unbeknownst to you, your Qi Luck is at work.]

“Qi Luck worked!”

Su Nan was overjoyed.

He had thought that even if he had good luck, it would take many attempts to enter the relics.

Unexpectedly, he succeeded on the second try!

[As soon as you enter the relics, you are immediately discovered by another martial artist in the relics. A middle-aged man appears in front of you and interrogates you on how you got in. You realize that the man before you is most likely Du Qiyuan.]

[A minute later, you explain your arrival. Upon hearing that you passed through the Ancient God Tomb and came from the future, Du Qiyuan’s face changes dramatically, and he suddenly attacks you.]

[Two minutes later, you’re no match for Du Qiyuan and are forced to flee.]

[Three minutes later, you die.]

“What’s going on? When he heard I was from the future, he attacked me?”

Su Nan felt a heavy weight in his heart, not expecting to die like this.

Fortunately, this was just a foreknowledge. Since telling the truth was not an option, he would change his identity.

In order for his Qi Luck to work again, he didn’t dare to waste a second and used foreknowledge again.

However, the information from this foreknowledge surprised him.
