Chapter 684: Successive Breakthroughs to Demon King Level (First Update, seeking everything)

The next moment, Bantian's consciousness drifted hazily into the depths of his Consciousness Sea.

At this moment, a milky-white gate stood before Bantian, a full hundred meters in height, with numerous Light-attribute Divine Beasts carved upon it, such as the Chongming Bird, Seraph, Holy Unicorn, and so on.

Compared to other attributes, the variety of Light-attribute Divine Beasts was much smaller.

Bantian had naturally received guidance from the experiences of Aixi, Kailan, Roundy, and the Crowned Blazing Bird; at the very first moment, his consciousness radiated milky-white Light Flame, striking the Mystery threshold with all his might.

Epic-quality Demon Pets have a thirty percent probability of breaking through to the Demon King level; the Light Origin, Darkness Origin, and Emperor Flowing Plasma increased this breakthrough probability to some extent, at least ensuring a greater than forty percent chance of completing the breakthrough.

Boom—

With the first strike, the Mystery threshold trembled violently, yet it was to no avail.

Boom— Boom— Boom—

Bantian did not spare the effort to look at the results, instead gathering his remaining strength to strike the same point repeatedly; every strike was made with all his might, causing the Mystery threshold to tremble more and more.

Only by concentrating strikes on the same point could one more easily shatter the Mystery threshold.

During the process of striking, the Light Flame on Bantian's body surface also dimmed at a speed visible to the naked eye, and his consciousness gradually became illusory; if he did not shatter the Mystery threshold before his consciousness was exhausted, it would mean the breakthrough had failed.

Bantian's luck was not very good; the spot he was concentrating his strikes on did not seem to be a weak point, and for a time, he achieved nothing.

Crack—

It was unknown how much time had passed when the Mystery threshold finally showed signs of cracking, but Bantian's consciousness had become much more illusory, and the intensity of his strikes had also clearly declined.

Yet upon seeing this tiny crack, Bantian became visibly excited; this meant his efforts were not in vain, and he began to strike the cracked area with even greater effort.

Crack— Crack—

Under the repeated, all-out strikes, the first crack expanded rapidly, and in turn, more cracks extended from it, yet it simply would not shatter.

It was also at this moment that Bantian's vision went black; unable to maintain his state any longer, after a bout of dizziness, he was forcibly expelled from the depths of the Consciousness Sea and returned to reality.

Meow—

Bantian let out a frustrated cry, then immediately waved a paw at Heiye, signaling Heiye not to let him down and to be sure to succeed in the breakthrough.

Meow—

Heiye nodded vigorously; the mere thought of not being able to play with yarn balls for a month filled his heart with motivation.

In just a few breaths' time, Heiye's consciousness appeared in the depths of the Consciousness Sea; before him was a hundred-meter-high Darkness Mystery threshold, with Darkness-attribute Divine Beasts such as the Fallen Seraph, Nightmare, and Dark Holy Dragon carved upon the gate.

Just like the Light attribute, the variety of Darkness-attribute Divine Beasts was equally scarce.

Unexpectedly, three cracks had appeared on this Darkness Mystery threshold.

The Light-Dark Twin Symbiote of Bantian and Heiye could actually affect the Mystery threshold.

However, if one observed carefully, one would discover that the three cracks on the Mystery threshold were repairing themselves at a slow speed.

If they were merely cracks, the Mystery threshold could still repair itself; if they were large holes, it would not be possible—this was also the main reason why, as long as a Pseudo-Demon King Demon Pet perseveres, they can absolutely break through to the Demon King level.

Crack—

Heiye's entire body radiated black Light Flame; he did not choose another location but struck the crack with force, causing the crack to spread once more.

Crack— Crack—

Under Heiye's continuous strikes, the cracks became more and more numerous, looking just like a spider web.

Rumble—

Finally, through Heiye's unremitting efforts, a large hole was at last smashed into the Darkness Mystery threshold, and a large amount of pitch-black radiance escaped from the hole.

After absorbing these escaping Darkness Mysteries, Heiye's consciousness vaguely became more condensed, and the force of his strikes also became stronger.

Heiye did not pause at all, beginning to strike the dilapidated Mystery threshold frantically with the hole as the center.

Under repeated strikes, the hole expanded rapidly, and at the same time, Heiye's consciousness was also becoming illusory at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Rumbling—

Not long after, accompanied by a loud, explosive sound, the Darkness Mystery threshold finally shattered completely, revealing a Darkness Profound Meaning Ocean.

When Heiye's consciousness landed on the Darkness Profound Meaning Ocean, his eyes narrowed slightly, revealing an expression of enjoyment.

After absorbing a large amount of Darkness Mystery, Heiye's consciousness was clearly much more condensed; to use a metaphor, it was the difference between a gaseous state and a liquid state.

Outside, the moment Heiye successfully broke through the Mystery threshold, the light of advancement permeated his entire body; his aura had increased by more than just one grade, giving people a suffocating sense of oppression.

At the same time, Bantian's consciousness appeared once again in the depths of the Consciousness Sea; his consciousness was quite illusory, giving one the feeling of having nowhere to exert force.

Whoosh—

For some unknown reason, the Light Mystery threshold before Bantian suddenly became filled with a large number of cracks, and immediately afterward, it shattered completely, revealing a milky-white Light Profound Meaning Ocean.

Bantian drifted lightly into the Profound Meaning Ocean, breaking through to the Demon King level with ease.

After breaking through to the Demon King level, the appearance of the two cats still did not change much, other than their auras becoming much stronger.

Meow— Meow—

At this time, Bantian and Heiye jumped straight into Li Changsheng's arms, emitting soft, cute cat calls, as if saying they had fulfilled the agreement and he could no longer stop them from playing with yarn balls.

"You did very well; according to the agreement, you may play to your heart's content."

Li Changsheng stroked the little heads of the two cats, his heart blooming with joy.

In this way, Li Changsheng possessed six Demon King-level Demon Pets, having already reached the most important requirement for advancing to a King.

Unfortunately, his Mental Power had not met the standard.

Before Li Changsheng could check the data of Bantian and Heiye, his body began to tremble violently.

Within the two mental channels between Li Changsheng and Bantian and Heiye, two opposing streams of Profound Mystery Energy surged violently into his Consciousness Sea.

After these two streams of Profound Mystery Energy left the Consciousness Sea, they did not consume each other but split into two, one stream surging into Li Changsheng's spine, and the other rushing into his skull.

Crackle—

Under the tempering of the Profound Mystery Energy, Li Changsheng's body trembled violently, his bones crackling; by the time the transformation ended, his entire skeleton had completely jade-ified, emitting a lustrous sheen.

Li Changsheng clenched his fists, feeling his whole body filled with power; he estimated that his current strength was absolutely no worse than a newly advanced King, and perhaps even slightly superior.

It was not just strength; Li Changsheng's ability to withstand blows had also risen by a grade.

Only at this moment did Li Zhangsheng begin to check the data of the two kittens.

【Spirit Beast Name】: Dawn Light Cat (Growth Stage, comprehends Mystery, significantly enhances skill power; Mystery Guard: exempts partial damage, mainly depending on the opponent's realm.) 《Light-Dark Twin Symbiote: belongs to a symbiotic relationship with the Night Darkness Cat; long-term separation will lead to mental lethargy. If one dies, the other must also die; if one advances, the other must also advance, including realm, quality, Bloodline, and race; can share the Demon Pet Space with the Night Darkness Cat》

【Spirit Beast Realm】: Demon King 1st Rank

【Spirit Beast Race】: Medium Monarch

【Spirit Beast Quality】: Epic 《guaranteed to be able to break through to the Demon King level, slightly increases the probability of breaking through to the Demon Saint level》

【Spirit Beast Bloodline】: Pale Cat (Rich)

【Spirit Beast Attribute】: Light

【Spirit Beast Status】: Healthy

【Spirit Beast Weakness】: None 《Mysterious Jade Ginseng eliminated the attribute weakness》

Except for the difference in attributes, the data for Night and Day are exactly the same, so I will not list them one by one.

This time, Day and Night not only broke through to the Demon King level, but their quality was also improved; their strength could be said to have undergone earth-shaking changes, and their strength has already surpassed the Crowned Blazing Bird and is not much worse than Aixi and Roundy.

Only then did Li Zhangsheng have time to pay attention to other things; not far away, the Six-Armed Naga failed its transformation after consuming the Yaochi Golden Jade. Although Ning Bizhen's luck is consistently good, it is impossible to succeed every time.

Under these circumstances, Ning Bizhen had no choice but to give the Shuimu Miaozhen Pearl to the Six-Armed Naga to consume.

As a Top-tier Heaven and Earth Essence treasure, compared with the Yaochi Golden Jade, the efficacy of the Shuimu Miaozhen Pearl is stronger, and it has a greater chance of allowing the Six-Armed Naga to complete its transformation.

Besides this, the aura of Ning Bizhen's Red Dragon was surging, clearly reaching a critical moment.

In less than a minute, the Red Dragon was enveloped in the white light of advancement, its body size surged, and it only barely stopped when it reached forty meters in length.

In this way, Ning Bizhen possessed a fourth Demon Beast, and the two could be said to have completed their minimum goal; if any more Demon Pets advanced to the Demon King level, that would be an unexpected joy.

After completing its advancement, the Red Dragon was put into the Demon Pet Space by Ning Bizhen, which also cleared a not-so-small space on the field, which could accommodate many Demon Pets to break through.

Li Wenbo reacted extremely quickly and hurriedly arranged a batch of Demon Pets to occupy these positions.

Li Zhangsheng's gaze was focused on those Lord 9th Rank Demon Pets; except for Adai and the Blue-Eyed Suet Horse, the remaining Lord 9th Rank Demon Pets had not yet broken through, but were striving to accumulate the power of the Emperor Flowing Plasma, preparing to save it for the final moment to break through.

It was not just them; all Demon Pets above the Elite level were doing the same. As for the Demon Pets that had not reached the Elite level, the power they could contain was relatively limited and could not support them for so long at all.

Even if it could only increase the breakthrough probability by a little bit, as long as the base number was large, it was always a good thing.

But in this way, more than half of the space was occupied by these large Demon Pets, and the remaining space was truly not large; the number of Demon Pets that could be provided for breakthroughs could be said to have been greatly reduced.

As time began to pass slowly, batch after batch of Demon Pets left the field, and a quarter of an hour passed quickly.

Regardless of success or failure, they had all absorbed some energy to a greater or lesser extent. Although the ten types of energy released by the Imitation Demon Refining Pot were many, the base number of Demon Pets was too large, and it had already become very Sparse at this moment.

It just so happened that at this time, Adai and the Blue-Eyed Suet Horse began to attempt to break through to the Demon King level.

Today's goal: three, pigs, proof!
