Today’s second update: Chapter 413!
I went out to walk the baby, and it’s even later. It’s still the fifth update today~
…
"Say it again?" Qian Manlou's eyes were round and bloodshot, looking extremely ferocious.
Xu Kun backed away slightly while holding the mirage, and then replied: "Devil Fruit!"
"You have?"
Xu Kun thought for a while and nodded.
"What grade?"
Xu Kun was silent.
Qian Manlou narrowed his eyes: "S level?"
Xu Kun shook his head.
Qian Manlou's breath was stagnant: "SS level?"
Xu Kun shook his head again.
Qian Manlou lost his momentum and slumped down on his chair and said: "If it's A-level, that's fine..."
"Why can't it be SSS level?" Xu Kun asked.
Qian Manlou sneered. Just as he was about to popularize the value of SSS-level devil fruits with Xu Kun, he happened to catch a glimpse of the playful look on Xu Kun's face.
"I'm warning you, Brother Qian, I am old and have a bad heart. Don't tell me..."
Xu Kun smiled and placed an ugly purple fruit with thunder and lightning patterns on the table.
Qian Manlou raised his hand, wanting to touch the fruit, but he didn't dare to get close.
"Where did it come from?"
"Reward for clearing the Thunder Swamp Secret Realm!"
Qian Manlou:? ? ? Can the Thunder Swamp dungeon also reward SSS-level gadgets?
But when he thought of Xu Kun's abnormality, he felt relieved.
Then, he held up Xu Kun's devil fruit with a serious face.
"It is indeed it, the lost supreme thunder devil fruit, the ability possessed by that terrifying existence back then!"
Xu Kun had a question mark on his face and said weakly: "Who is that terrifying existence?"
"The last most powerful person from the demon race before he was pulled down from the altar, stepped above the seventieth floor, and was revered as Dao Lei Tianzun, the terrifying existence of the demon race!"
When mentioning this, Qian Manlou's expression became more serious than ever before. He stood up with his fat body, turned his back to Xu Kun, and looked out the window. His clenched fists showed his inner peace at the moment.
"Brother Qian?" Xu Kun didn't dare to breathe for a while.
"Oh... well, since you have obtained this thing, you should also know these secrets!" Qian Manlou sighed.
"You should have checked where devil fruits come from, right?" Qian Manlou asked.
Xu Kun nodded: "Produced from the original SS-level race that was replaced by the Shura clan three hundred years ago, the devil clan's most precious treasure, on the devil fruit tree!"
Qian Manlou nodded: "Then do you know the reason why the demon clan was pulled down from the altar back then?"
Xu Kun shook his head. If he hadn't obtained this Devil Fruit Tree, he would never have heard of the name Devil Clan!
What is taught in the school about Haotian Tower is only the novice trial stage. In terms of history, it is an outline of the development from the late Wuji era to the present!
Three hundred years ago, it was too far away for Xu Kun!
"The Demon Clan, to be precise, it was the former Demon Clan. In fact, it was not exterminated. Now their clan name is the Blood Clan!"
"Vampire?" Xu Kun frowned, and after thinking hard, he said uncertainly: "That old A-level race?"
"That's right!"
(In the introduction to this book, I mentioned the Vampire Clan, but I don’t know if anyone still remembers it~)
"The predecessor of the Blood Clan is the SS-level race Demon Clan!"
An SS-level race was reduced to today's A-level race. The gap is too big!
"Didn't the Shura clan exterminate all the vampire clan?"
"No, firstly, the vampire clan's life-saving methods are quite good, and it is too difficult to eradicate them. Secondly, the Shura clan has no intention of destroying the demon clan. After the goal is achieved, the demon clan will have no power to resist!"
"Without the power to resist...the goal was achieved...could it be because the Devil Fruit Tree was occupied?"
"Yes!" Qian Manlou nodded.
hiss!
Xu Kun took a breath. Just because a tree was lost, an SS-level race was so depressed?
Qian Manlou suddenly smiled and said: "The demon clan without the devil fruit tree is like a tiger with its teeth pulled out. It can no longer constitute any threat to the Shura clan who are powerful and have occupied the devil fruit tree. threaten!"
"Without the Devil Fruit Tree, the Demon Race itself is just an A-level race, both in terms of racial base and talent!"
Xu Kun frowned: "That's not right. Even if the demon race is not as good as before without the devil fruit tree, the demon race with the devil fruit tree is still a real SS-level race, right?"
"The ones the Shura clan destroyed must have been the demon clan in their heyday. So how did they do this?"
"This has something to do with your previous owner of the Dao Lei Fruit!"
"Moreover, the demon clan was exterminated, largely because of the Lord of the Era of our human race!"
Xu Kun was shocked. Could the Lord of the Human Race be related to the annihilation of the Demon Race?
No...the demon race was exterminated, or to be precise, they were pulled down from the throne of the Seven Kings more than three hundred years ago, that is...in the middle and late period of the Age of Gods created by Zeus? !
"Is it because of Zeus, the King of Gods?" Although Xu Kun was asking Qian Manlou, his tone was very sure.
Qian Manlou confirmed with a smile.
"Dao Lei Tianzun...King of the Gods, these two are both strong men of the Way of Thunder. Could it be because of the dispute over the cultivation system?"
Listening to Xu Kun's guess, Qian Manlou was slightly surprised: "You are very smart, you can analyze the reason so quickly!"
"In an era, two powerful men of the thunder system appeared. The King of Gods and Dao Lei Tianzun were at odds with each other. From the moment they climbed to the tenth floor, they kept rubbing against each other until the King of Gods stepped forward. Entering the seventieth floor, Dao Lei Tianzun stepped over this hurdle, and in order to compete for the honor of being the strongest in the thunder system, an earth-shattering battle started between the two most powerful men!"
Speaking of this, Qian Manlou also said with some excitement: "Although that era is still far away from me, all I know is nothing more than word of mouth and some things recorded in history books!"
"But Daolei Tianzun is a being who has high hopes for the entire demon clan. The demon clan plans to rely on him to take a further step among the seven royal clans!"
"However, just after he stepped into the ranks of the strongest, he was killed. Isn't it embarrassing?"
"We are both members of the Seven Royal Clan, and the Wood Clan is undoubtedly the first royal family among the Seven Royal Clan. However, they are only A-level races. The Demon Clan, which relies on the Devil Fruit Tree to crush powerful enemies all the way, can only settle for the last place!"
"You have also seen the effects of Devil Fruits. After taking any level of Devil Fruit, it is equivalent to gaining an extra level of talent!"
"Coupled with all the A-level talents of the Vampires themselves - Blood Food, every Vampire who has taken the Devil Fruit is worthy of the title of Devil!"
"No matter which level of devil fruit he takes, this demon will become the best among talented people of the same level!"
"Blood food..."
Qian Manlou explained: "The Blood Clan's A-level talent, Blood Food, are all five basic attribute bonus talents. The Vampire Clan itself is not good at special attribute attacks, but their Blood Food talent is born with two big words. strip!"
"One is the sanctification of flesh and blood, and the other is the blood contract. The demon clan was dethroned by the Shura clan and became the target of public criticism. These two notorious entry abilities are also the main reasons why people are afraid of them!"
"Sanctification of flesh and blood allows vampires to gain part of the attributes of the devoured person by devouring the blood of other clans!"
"The blood contract allows the target who has been devoured by the vampires to become their puppet zombies. Every powerful vampire will have a large number of puppet zombies who retain some of their previous strength and are not afraid of death. Even if It’s the Dragon Clan, and there are many who were reduced to puppets and zombies after being defeated!”
Xu Kun understood. Although the Blood Clan's ability was not as frightening as the Demonic Clan's ability to directly control souls, it was not strong enough and was killed by the strong. Even the Dragon Clan couldn't pick out the thorns!
But if you die, you will die. If it falls into the hands of the human race, the worst possible outcome will be peeling off the skin and cramping, and squeezing out the remaining value!
But if it falls into the hands of the vampires, they will not only drink your blood dry, but also turn your body into a puppet. This method is unacceptable to any race!
Every puppet war corpse that appears on the battlefield is a mark of the shame of its original race!
"Even if an SS-level race is achieved by external forces, since it can sit on the throne, it is extremely difficult to be pulled off the throne. Even the Three Saints will not risk the disapproval of the world to do such harm. It’s something fundamental to oneself!”
"There are many reasons why the demon clan fell off the altar!"
"The Dao Lei Tianzun, who had high hopes, died at the hands of the King of Gods. This sounded the clarion call for the annihilation of the demon race!"
"The Shura tribe invaded the Demon tribe on Blue Star in a large scale and seized the Devil Fruit tree, thus uprooting the foundation of the Demon tribe!"
"And the reason why the majestic SS-level race has completely become a thing of the past and no longer feared by others is the major event that happened on the 70th floor of the Haotian Tower, where strong men from all races joined forces to strangle the most powerful demon race!"
"The prelude to destruction, eradicating the foundation, and tearing off the protective umbrella. These three steps successfully brought down a seven-king clan. In the original action of eradicating the strongest of the demon clan, the Titan clan, who was also a member of the seven-king clan, was the most active. It can be said that Move in full force!”
"Why?" Xu Kun asked doubtfully.
Qian Manlou shook his head: "To this day, no one has given an accurate answer, but it is speculated that the vampires have sucked the blood of the Titans and refined them into too many puppet war corpses!"
Yeah?
Xu Kun was suspicious. He had not forgotten that Zeus, the king of gods who killed Daolei Tianzun, was actually a member of the Titan clan. How could there be no connection between them?
"Okay, let's talk about your Dao Lei Fruit itself!"
"Another speculation about the alliance of various races to strangle the strongest members of the Demon Race is because of the special nature of this Devil Fruit!"
"You should have seen this after you got this Devil Fruit. Once a fruit-ability user is killed, the Devil Fruit he has taken will return to the Devil Fruit tree!"
Xu Kun blinked: "You mean, by besieging and killing those powerful demon clansmen, is it because each clan intends to return the devil fruit to the fruit tree?"
"Definitely!"
"When a whale falls, all things come to life. Although the Shura clan has successfully occupied the Devil Fruit Tree and replaced the Demon clan as one of the seven new royal clans, he, a new royal clan, does not dare to monopolize the devil fruits of the original strong demon clan. , before each race, there was inevitably a frenzy of carving up, and the demon race lost so many strong men, who knows how many more powerful devil fruits they gained!"
"These have become the trophies of all races!"
"There is no accurate information from the human race about how it was divided up, so there is no way to know anything!"
"But one thing is certain, the Dao Lei Fruit of Dao Lei Tianzun who was killed by the King of Gods unexpectedly did not return to the fruit tree!"
"The power of Dao Lei Fruit is obvious to all. Although Dao Lei Tianzun failed and was martyred, no one will underestimate his strength. It can only be said that the King of Gods is too strong. Therefore, all races are very concerned about the Dao Lei Fruit he takes. Jealous!"
"For this reason, various tribes have conducted extensive searches, but decades have passed and no trace of the Dao Thunder Fruit has been found. I didn't expect that it would appear in your hands today!"
"Except for the Devil Fruit auction held by the Shura clan every fifty years, it is impossible for even an F-level Devil Fruit to leak out on the market. However, your performance has always exceeded my expectations. I have already I tried to guess the bigger picture, but in the end I was still short-sighted!”
"Kundi, you really gave me a big surprise!"
