Chapter 979 - 887: This is the Top Student
Inside the pavilion, everyone wore complex expressions.
None of them had expected that Xinning… would so easily solve the first question?
“A blind cat running into a dead mouse…”
The Demon Ancestor was quite unwilling to accept it.
After all, he couldn’t admit defeat; to acknowledge such a young girl as smarter than himself would be too much of a loss of face, wouldn’t it?
Meanwhile, Guixin and the others now looked more solemn.
“She seems… to be very strong?”
Yafei spoke uncertainly.
But Ge Qianming’s face remained impassive and calm as he said,
“It doesn’t matter.”
The moment the Demon Fiend’s incarnation started answering the questions… everything was already destined.
She could only be controlled by him!
In contrast, Xinning appeared quite indifferent; she turned to the second page.
Just like before, she began writing answers directly, without any hesitation!
The True Form Diagram of Demon Dao she constructed was also very simple.
This time, everyone fell silent, even the Demon Ancestor held his tongue.
Mainly because the slap in the face had come too quickly before, he had learned his lesson.
He’d wait until Xinning failed, then start mocking!
But before this thought could fade from his mind, he saw another secret Demon Dao Rune soaring up from the second page of the Demon Codex!
The second question…
was also correct!
This time, everyone’s expressions became even more grave.
Could it be that Xinning was truly so strong that she could easily answer the puzzles of the Ultimate Demon Codex?!
Similarly, Xinning tossed these Demon Dao Runes to the Tianmo King, looking down on this “low-level knowledge”!
The Tianmo King was once again excited; it was another page of the Supreme Demonic Dao secret technique.
He was making a fortune while lying down!
“Thank you, thank you! My benefactor!!!”
He was wildly grateful to Xinning!
Immediately after, Xinning began writing the third question…
The fourth question…
All correct!
Four questions in a row!
At this moment, everyone’s face was extremely solemn.
If solving one question could be luck, and two questions could be chance…
Then solving four questions in a row…
had to be… real strength!
She had… surpassed the Demon Ancestor!
“This woman must not be allowed to live… if she grows, she might become a great threat to the Grey Mist Sea!”
Lu Fei murmured, his eyes filled with dread.
“As expected of the Demon Fiend’s reincarnation, possessing unparalleled talent…”
Yafei murmured as well.
Ge Qianming’s eyes grew more and more serious, yet he still maintained his composure.
Being correct on four questions was indeed strong, but, was it useful?
Unless all one hundred questions were solved.
Otherwise, the reincarnated Demon Fiend would still be under his control!
Next, Xinning proceeded with incredible speed!
The fifth question…
The seventh question…
The ninth question…
Sweeping through one after another… as smooth as silk!
Those questions that even the Demon Ancestor and the Demon Fiend had pondered hard and could not answer seemed to hold no difficulty in front of her…
As Xinning continued to solve, in the pavilion, everyone’s breathing was as if held!
Nine questions conquered…
At this moment, everyone felt an inexplicable sensation… this little girl couldn’t possibly…
Really keep on solving the rest, could she?
“Brother Ge…”
Lu Fei and another couldn’t help but turn towards Ge Qianming.
But at this moment, even Ge Qianming was somewhat unsettled; this reincarnated Demon Fiend… was too brutal!
Conquering nine questions, such a feat, once spread to the Grey Mist Sea, would cause a great uproar.
Such a talented Demonic Path cultivator, throughout the sea of mist, was seldom seen.
“My benefactor… is too incredible…”
At this point, the Tianmo King was left with only worship; he looked at Xinning with utmost reverence.
He had already gained nine pages of secret techniques!
While everyone was in shock, Xinning finally began solving the tenth question!
“Hahaha… you’ve finally made a mistake!
Suddenly, the Demon Ancestor burst into loud laughter.
“The answer is definitely not what you’ve written; you’re wrong!”
“You’re finally wrong!!!”
He was so happy he nearly danced with joy!
——Before this, the Demon Ancestor had solved a total of three questions.
The tenth was one of them.
The True Form Diagram he had constructed back then was mysterious and complex, intricate beyond comprehension, containing indecipherable Demon Dao True Intent.
On the contrary, the True Form Diagram now presented by Xinning was still simple, with only a few Demon Dao Runes making an appearance.
“Benefactor… was wrong?”
The Tianmo King was taken aback for a moment. He had just copied the answer, so he remembered that the answer given by the Demon Ancestor… was indeed different from Xinning’s at this moment.
“She finally made a mistake…”
Lu Fei and the others actually felt somewhat happy and relieved at this moment!
Xinning’s continuous success in breaking through challenges had been putting psychological pressure on them.
Ge Qianming unconsciously let out a sigh of relief, he… was also feeling a bit nervous!
“So you say I’m dumb… you’re not so smart yourself.”
The Demonic Fierce Evil Corpse also spoke up, as if releasing a sigh of foul breath.
“Little sister, come, call me ‘teacher’ or ‘senior,’ and I will teach you how to solve this puzzle. How about it?”
The Demon Ancestor couldn’t help but brag, feeling ecstatic!
Just now, as he watched Xinning solving puzzles one after another, he was so shocked he could not even speak, feeling incredibly frustrated, ashamed, and helpless!
But now the other party had finally made a mistake!
Even if Xinning had solved nine puzzles and he had only solved five, he felt a sense of confidence just thinking about the puzzles he had solved that Xinning could not…
However, Xinning just turned her head slightly, looked at the Demon Ancestor, and said,
“Your skin is really thick.”
“A problem that could be solved in three steps, you unnecessarily evolved it into over two thousand steps… and you’re still talking so confidently?”
Saying this, she looked at the Demonic Fierce Evil Corpse and said,
“And you… if you’re dumb, just be dumb, talk less, otherwise it makes my past life… look very stupid, it’s embarrassing.”
Having said that, she did not lift her head and constructed the third step.
Boom!
The page made a soft sound.
Instantly, top secret Demon Dao runes flowed out.
The tenth puzzle… was solved!
Suddenly, the Demon Ancestor was dumbfounded!
How could this be?!
He couldn’t help but rub his eyes. He wasn’t seeing things, was he…
This puzzle, was it really solved by Xinning in just three steps?!
At this moment, he felt a tightness in his chest, almost as if he wanted to vomit blood.
Damn.
The problem that took him over two thousand steps to solve, this little girl did in three???
Such a contrast… it completely broke his mentality.
This kind of insult… was even stronger than when he couldn’t solve the puzzles!
Indeed, he had solved them, but now it seemed only to prove how dumb he was and how smart this little girl was…
Thinking back on how he had been bragging and wanted Xinning to call him ‘teacher’ or ‘senior’…
He just wanted to find a hole to crawl into, so humiliating for a demon, too humiliating!
The Demonic Fierce Evil Corpse was also silent, completely silent.
She… didn’t want to talk anymore.
Reincarnated and reborn smarter than herself? More powerful than herself???
And so much more powerful…
The feeling was… too depressing.
But then, at that very moment!
Boom!
The Ultimate Demon Codex, as if awakened by some mysterious call, the endless Demonic Path rules poured out from the codex, filling the entire pavilion!
At this moment, it was as though an illusory world replaced the space where the pavilion sat.
“What… Brother Ge, what is happening?”
Lu Fei and the others were extremely shocked.
Ge Qianming’s face also changed dramatically, he too had no idea what was happening… The Ultimate Demon Codex had never been triggered before!
“Could it be, she broke through ten puzzles, awakening the Path-Scenic Land of that Great Demon Dao Cultivator?!”
“The Path-Scenic Land of that Great Demon Dao Cultivator has reappeared?!”
Ge Qianming speculated, full of uncertainty!
It was just a legend that the Ultimate Demon Codex… was made from the skin and True Bone of that Great Demon Dao Cultivator!
Therefore, it contained not only his obsessions and resentful spirit but also his Path-Scenic Land.
However, many were tainted by its resentful spirit, yet no one had ever successfully opened his Path-Scenic Land.
Now, because of the unimaginable performance of the Demonic Fierce Evil Corpse… was it opened?
It was very likely!
At the same time, as this illusory world descended, everyone around felt a sense of repulsion, unable to enter!
Only Xinning!
She held the Ultimate Demon Codex in her hand, with countless Demon Dao rules swirling around her, and beneath her feet seemed to be a mysterious land covered with Chaos Fog.
She… looked like a demon lord who held the truth in her hands!
And it was at this moment that the Demonic Fierce Evil Corpse suddenly said,
“Let me in… I have something private to say to you!”
Xinning glanced at the Demonic Fierce Evil Corpse and lifted her hand lightly.
Instantly, the Demonic Fierce Evil Corpse was enveloped by the Path-Scenic Land!
“Hey, hey, hey… what about me? What about me?!”
Seeing this, the Demon Ancestor became anxious!
This was the Path-Scenic Land left by a Great Demon Dao Cultivator, and if he could enter, it would be of great benefit!
But that Path-Scenic Land became illusory in an instant, intangible, and unreachable!
Even though it was right in front of him, the scenery inside could no longer be clearly seen by anyone, as if separated by a chasm between reality and illusion!
…
Whimpering… someone discovered the draft saved by Guixin, and Guixin got angry. My freeze-dried treats got taken away, and he said I had to write the updates myself, or he wouldn’t let me eat…
Meow whimper, I still have one more chapter before I can have freeze-dried treats.
Great Demon King Guixin is so hateful, meow whimper.
I must continue writing.
