I Have an Omen System-Chapter 116 - 111: Double Agent

’Knowing the people of the Holy Sect...’

’They value their lives more than anything. How could they possibly self-destruct their Cultivation Techniques for real?’

Qin Xuan knew this all too well.

However, this very reluctance made the threat that much more effective.

If too many of them actually self-destructed, the Venerable Divinity Transformation from the Cyan Cloud Sect would inevitably intervene. Then, no one would be able to use the tactic.

Instead, the current situation—where it was as if everyone was holding a nuclear weapon—was the most effective.

For a time, the entire Bone-Eroding Demon Sea was thrown into a state of miserable chaos by these Demon Cultivators. Now, no one dared to fight those damn Incense Masters.

Whenever any Cultivators saw a Demon Cultivator, they would turn and flee immediately.

"My lord, in recent days, several of my kinsmen have fallen into the hands of Demon Cultivators."

The Koi Merfolk sobbed weakly against Qin Xuan’s chest. As her tears fell to the ground, they transformed into glistening pearls.

"Fear not. I shall issue the order at once."

Feeling the delicate softness in his arms, Qin Xuan gently patted Yun Xia’s smooth, snow-white back. His voice deepened, filled with immense authority.

"Where is Xie Tian?"

The Water Curtain Restriction at the entrance to the Cave Mansion rippled, and a bright red Giant Crab Demon scuttled sideways into the cave.

This was the same Crab Demon who had greeted Qin Xuan on the shore a few days ago, possessing the strength of the Earth Dao Foundation Establishment Sixth Level.

"Pass down the order. Tell the little ones under your command to patrol more frequently around the Brocade Fish Division’s territory in the coming days."

"Also, tell everyone to be more cautious recently. Don’t go out alone, or you’ll give the Demon Cultivators an opening!" 𝙛𝒓𝒆𝙚𝒘𝒆𝓫𝙣𝓸𝙫𝓮𝒍.𝒄𝒐𝓶

"As you command!" Xie Tian ground his teeth and shot a vicious glare at the Koi Merfolk nestled in Qin Xuan’s arms before scuttling sideways out of the cave.

"Thank you, my lord."

The Koi Merfolk was overjoyed, pressing her beautiful body even closer against Qin Xuan.

Qin Xuan’s eyes narrowed slightly as he let out a hearty laugh.

「Late that night.」

At the Koi Merfolk Race’s Cave Mansion, several huge Cyan Crab Demons at the Human Dao Foundation Establishment Fourth Level patrolled back and forth, holding steel tridents.

Qin Xuan, disguised as Du Legu, appeared with a swagger, the Cyan Mushroom Beast following behind him.

"Who goes there? How dare you trespass on the territory of our Demon Race!"

Qin Xuan replied, "I am the Demon Cultivator Shi Huaizhong, and I’ve come specifically to take the lives of you Mixed Demons."

Before his voice had even faded, he pulled a handful of multicolored, gem-like spore powder from his waist.

WHOOSH—

He puffed out his cheeks and blew hard.

He exhaled a breath imbued with a strange medicinal power, catching the handful of spore powder and causing it to instantly expand in the wind.

In an instant, a vibrant, seven-colored mist filled the air.

"It smells so sweet."

The three Crab Demons, all at the Human Dao Foundation Establishment Fourth Layer, had only just registered the sickly-sweet scent when the world began to spin. Their two massive pincers went limp and drooped down.

They fell backward, unconscious.

Qin Xuan smiled faintly, summoned his Lifebound Longsword, and with one strike for each, drained the three Crab Demons of all their Essence. Feeling refreshed all over, he then swaggered away.

Leaving behind nothing but a patch of multicolored Poison Powder on the ground.

「Early the next morning」, Xie Tian rushed to the Aao Peak Cave Mansion, his expression anxious.

"My lord, something’s happened!"

"What is it?"

Xie Tian said, "Yesterday, outside the Koi Merfolk Race’s Cave Mansion, three of my kinsmen from the Cyan Crab Race were killed by a Demon Cultivator!"

Qin Xuan slammed his hand on the table. "How audacious! A mere petty Demon Cultivator dares to attack my Demon Race? Are they bullying me because my injuries have yet to heal?!"

"Where is Jin Feng?"

"Here, my lord!"

A Flower-Spot Python Demon at the Human Dao Foundation Establishment Sixth Level, its body covered in patterns like golden threads, slithered out from the side. It flicked its scarlet forked tongue, exuding a cold and sinister aura.

"Jin Feng, tonight you will patrol with the Crab Race. If you find that Demon Cultivator, release a signal immediately. We must teach him a lesson!"

"As you command!" the Flower-Spot Python Demon said in a deep voice.

「Late that night.」

The Demon Race patrol on Demon Flood Dragon Island, which originally consisted of three bright red Giant Crab Demons, was now joined by a Flower-Spot Python Demon at the Foundation Establishment Fifth Level.

Once again, Qin Xuan appeared, swaggering in his disguise as Du Legu.

He let out a sinister laugh.

"JIE JIE JIE, you of the Demon Race! I, Shi Huaizhong, have returned!"

The Flower-Spot Python Demon was stronger than the Giant Crab Demons, but it was ultimately only at the Human Dao Foundation Establishment. How could it possibly compare to Qin Xuan, who was at the Heaven Dao Foundation Establishment Fourth Level?

"Audacious Demon Cultivator, you’re courting death!" the Python Demon, Jin Feng, roared. Just as he was about to strike, the previously silent Cyan Mushroom Beast suddenly let out a low cry.

Qin Xuan slammed his Withered Vine Staff heavily against the ground.

"Little Mushroom, release!"

SPLASH!

The vibrant mushrooms on the Cyan Mushroom Beast’s back suddenly opened up, spraying out a large amount of viscous acid rain that glowed with a green light of life.

As the acid rain fell, it directly corroded the Flower-Spot Python Demon’s Protective Spiritual Light. Moreover, it had Attributes that could defile and inertialize Demon Power.

"AARGH!" the Flower-Spot Python Demon cried out in pain.

The moment the acid rain touched its scales, they began to SIZZLE as they burned and corroded. In an instant, the circulation of its Demon Power became sluggish.

Qin Xuan seized the opportunity and thrust his sword out again.

PFFT—

The distinct sound of a blade piercing flesh rang out. The Flower-Spot Python Demon, Jin Feng, stared with wide eyes, its face filled with terror.

In an instant, the Silver-White Long Sword sucked up all of its Demon Essence with a greedy GULP, GULP.

And that wasn’t all. Even its scales and python bones ended up in Qin Xuan’s Storage Pouch.

Meanwhile, the giant Cyan Crab Demons nearby had long since succumbed to the Spore Poison Fog and were lying limply on the ground.

Once again, a patch of multicolored poisonous fog was left on the ground.

And now there were also traces of ghastly green, corrosive acid rain.

’Hiss... why does it feel like after absorbing several Demon Cultivators in a row, the speed of my Cultivation increase has actually slowed down?’

As this thought crossed his mind, Qin Xuan decided not to devour the three remaining Cyan Crab Demons this time.

Instead, he knocked them out one by one and swaggered over to the other side of Demon Flood Dragon Island with them in tow.

Under the cover of night, he actually started a fire and began to roast them.

A single Foundation Establishment Stage Crab Demon weighed a good one or two thousand pounds. Even after Qin Xuan specially carved it up, it still took quite a while to roast.
