Immortal Hero: I Can See the Success Rate

Chapter 108: Drain the Lightning Pool

“It seems like that monkey is absorbing the power of the lightning pool! Oh my heavens, how did that guy do it?”

“The Sky Demon King has completely lost this time. The position of the Demon Emperor belongs to that monkey!”

Everyone started to discuss and Su Peibai’s face was already filled with smiles.

She looked at the Sky Demon King with an ice-cold expression. With the power of Lin An who was about to become the Demon Emperor, she said to the Sky Demon King in a low voice.

“Sky Demon King! My friend is about to become the next Demon Emperor. I will give you one last chance to return my sister. Otherwise...”

She did not say the rest of her words. However, the Sky Demon King could imagine what would happen if he was targeted by the next Demon Emperor.

His expression immediately changed. He was quiet for a moment before he clenched his teeth and spoke unwillingly, “The lightning tribulation ritual has ended. Your sister will naturally appear at the entrance of the lightning pool!”

At this moment, Lin An, who was on the altar, had almost sucked the lightning pool dry. His body became incomparably tough. His muscles seemed to have undergone countless tempering and there would occasionally be a flash on the surface of his skin.

“Ding! Congratulations to the Host for completing the refinement of the Hell King’s Purgatory Form. You have accumulated 100% of the lightning attribute and obtained the ability to control lightning.”

In the next moment, Lin An immediately sensed that everything within a radius of a few hundred miles that contained the lightning attribute could be controlled by him.

Lin An was overjoyed. He didn’t expect to have such a harvest on this trip.

Just as he was rejoicing, he suddenly heard a clamor coming from below.

“Look at that monkey. He has already absorbed all the power in the lightning pool.”

“What if the lightning pool is unable to recover after a hundred years? How are our descendants going to hold the lightning tribulation sacrifice again?”

“This monkey is impetuous and doesn’t think about our tribe at all. He doesn’t have the right to be the Demon Emperor!”

Lin An finally understood what these people were arguing about after listening for a long time. It turned out that they were using this as an excuse to stop Lin An from becoming the new Demon Emperor.

He sneered and threw the lightning in his hand at the clamoring crowd.

Boom!

In an instant, the power of lightning exploded in front of the demons. An invisible wave of air pushed them to the ground. At the same time, the lightning spread out and engulfed everyone.

The lightning filled their bodies and the demons screamed in pain. Lin An controlled the lightning. As long as he didn’t let the lightning escape, the lightning would bind them tightly and make them suffer.

Screams of pain rang out beside the lightning pool. More than ten demons cried out in pain and struggled on the ground. No matter what spell they used, they couldn’t escape the torture of the lightning.

The lightning spun faster and faster, and the sharp sound of thunder became more and more ear-piercing. Most of the demons present felt a chill in their hearts and couldn’t help but retreat.

In the end, the violent power instantly tore apart the bodies of a few of the demons, leaving only a cloud of blood mist on the ground.

“Monkey, you’re courting death!”

Those demons were all from the Sky Demon King’s tribe. After they were killed by Lin An, he roared angrily and charged straight at Lin An.

Lin An smiled coldly. What he wanted was to provoke the Sky Demon King into making a move. After all, between the Sky Demon King and Su Peibai’s positions, the two sides were enemies. It wasn’t his style to ignore his enemies.

A ball of lightning appeared in his hand and he threw it straight at the Sky Demon King.

The Sky Demon King’s expression changed immediately. His pupils contracted rapidly and he hurriedly used a spell to block in front of him.

Bang!

The ball of lightning exploded the Sky Demon King’s blocking spell. Even his entire body was sent flying. Like a kite with a broken string, he fell from afar and crashed into the ground, creating a crater.

This scene immediately shocked the other non-humans present.

Initially, they thought that if the Sky Demon King made a move, Su Peibai would definitely come out to protect Lin An. However, in the end, there was no need for her to make a move at all. Lin An only used one move to send the Sky Demon King flying and heavily injure him!

Was this level of strength really only at the peak of the aurous core stage? It was simply unbelievable.

It wasn’t until night fell and the lightning tribulation sacrificial ceremony ended that the protective barrier outside the lightning pool was opened. Lin An, Su Peibai, and the others left together. At the entrance of the lightning pool, Su Peibai’s sister was also brought back safe and sound.

After returning to Su Peibai’s tribe, Su Peibai told him that he would have to ascend the throne in the demon city two days later and take over as the new Demon Emperor.

Lin An was a little conflicted. He was only here to watch the show. How did he become the new Demon Emperor?

Then would he return to the Jiuxiao Sect? And what about his master, Qian Yi?

But he immediately thought it through. The only bond between the Jiuxiao Sect and him was just Qian Yi. It was fine if he didn’t go back to that place!

He might as well go to the demon city and take a look first. It would be another matter if he ascended the throne or not.

The next morning, under the leadership of Su Peibai, Lin An followed a few powerhouses from Su Peibai’s tribe and all of them set off for the demon city.

It was worth mentioning that after passing the aurous heavenly tribulation, Lin An had already successfully stepped into the nascent soul stage.

He had also obtained a big upgrade gift pack and obtained four nascent soul advancement pills. Now, he was already at the fourth stage of the intermediate stage of the nascent soul stage.

He had leveled up four times in one night. This speed could be said to be monstrous!

When they arrived at the demon city, it was already evening. The sky was gradually turning yellow.

However, the demon city was not as prosperous and wealthy as they had imagined. Instead, it was extremely dilapidated.

From afar, it looked more like a relic.

This was the current position of the demon race in the Cangyun Continent.

The few elders of the demon race were immediately filled with emotions. They shook their heads and said.

“Haa, our race has already declined to this point.”

“I can’t remember how many years ago. At that time, I was still young and had witnessed how prosperous and rich this demon city was. Even the current Ghana Empire didn’t much compare.”

“It’s a pity that the battle back then... Cough!”

In the end, the few elders sighed and didn’t speak anymore.

Su Peibai stood outside the city. Her face was filled with solemnity and reserve as if she was imagining the glory of the demon city back then.

At a time like this, even Lin An was affected by the vicissitudes of time. There was a hint of sadness on his face.

“Let’s start the preparations. The coronation ceremony will be held early tomorrow morning.”

After Su Peibai said this, she led everyone towards the imperial palace.

At this time, many unfamiliar faces had already arrived in the demon city, all of them were here for the coronation ceremony.

...

At the entrance of the palace, there was a demon standing.

Seeing Lin An and his group walk over, he immediately sneered, “A stinky monkey with a red butt. What ability does he have to become the Demon Emperor of our demon race?”

His voice was neither loud nor soft but it fell right into the ears of everyone here, including the passersby.

Instantly, many people’s faces were filled with an intrigued expression.

Su Peibai’s eyes also turned cold. She knew that there would definitely be people who would be unconvinced by Lin An’s ascension, and she had to beat down the questioning voice completely. Thus, she furrowed her brows and shouted, “Hiding your head and showing your tail! Show your true appearance and speak!”

That person walked out from the shadow that concealed his figure. It was an old man with wings on his back. He stood still and sneered, “What. Did I say something wrong? How can a mere fourth-level nascent soul stage lead our clan to prosperity?”
