Keyboard Immortal

Zu An was stunned. He had never expected to stumble upon this pleasant surprise. He'd thought that the Keyboard System could only make use of dead objects, but it seemed able to activate on living things too.

But nothing similar happened when he was intimate with his lovers... What seemed different here seemed to be that the enemy didn’t have any ability to resist and was completely at his mercy.

Zu An carefully examined the skill, and discovered that he needed 500,000 Rage points to learn ‘Bravado’. He was stunned. After all, the Myriad Transformations skill had only needed a million Rage points. Even though that was because he was proficient in drawing and knew Face of a Thousand Identities, those prerequisite skills allowing him to greatly reduce the cost, this kind of skill still needed half the price of Myriad Transformations. That was a bit pricey for him. But if he had to use that much, it meant the skill would be quite strong, right?

He still had around two million points, so after some hesitation, he chose to learn it. 500,000 points were quickly deducted, leaving behind 1,554,470 Rage points.

He could feel a stream of information enter his head as he learned ‘Bravado’: It would make the user's aura reach its most powerful point and give the enemy the illusion that they were going all out. That would then help increase their chances of escape.

Zu An was full of question marks when he read through the skill introduction.

I used up 500,000 points for just this?

What the hell is the use of a shitty skill like this? I feel scammed!

The True Demon Emissary had used this skill, yet he still couldn't escape. Of course, that was a special situation. If not for the fact that this world had already become one with Zu An to a certain extent, he could have been fooled too.

When he thought about the 500,000 points he had just lost, Zu An’s mood soured. He squeezed with his fingers and light flickered all around the True Demon Emissary, whose protection treasures subsequently all became ineffective.

Zu An said with a cold chuckle, “And here I thought that there really were a thousand protective treasures. It was just a hundred or so.”

The True Demon Emissary opened his mouth. He really wanted to say, Is a hundred of such powerful protective treasures not enough? But they had all been easily crushed by this human, and his cultivation had just been completely sucked dry. He was already completely downcast.

When they saw the True Demon Emissary lying limply in Zu An’s hand like a dead dog, the Rong and Wu Clan Masters completely felt at ease. It seemed they had changed sides at the right time.

Meanwhile, the Yun Clan Master lost all hope. His entire body shook intensely. He could only hope that his life would be spared because of his connection to Yun Yuqing.

“Just who are you?” Zu An asked.

“You can kill or torture me if you want, but why would I ever beg for pity from a despicable native like you?!” the True Demon Emissary raised his head and cursed.

“How brazen! You dare to treat the regent with disrespect!” the Yun and Wu Clan Masters both shouted.

Smoke almost came out of the True Demon Emissary’s head. Not too long ago, those two old farts had been acting so subservient to him, and yet they'd immediately turned on him! Unfortunately, his cultivation had been completely crippled and he didn’t even have the strength to criticize them anymore.

“I seem to have heard similar words before.” Zu An chuckled. “It doesn’t matter; you'll speak soon.”

Crack!

Just like that, the Emissary's neck was snapped. The three clan masters shivered.

The regent looks agreeable on the surface, but he really is decisive! I wonder if we'll follow in his footsteps later.

Even Jiang Luofu frowned slightly. It wasn’t because she felt that this monster shouldn’t have been killed, but rather that he shouldn’t have been killed so quickly. They should have waited until they obtained enough information first, right?

The True Demon Emissary was also shocked. He had never expected to be killed just like that!

But he quickly realized that he still had his consciousness and that he could see his own body below him; he'd just turned into a spirit. He was really happy to see that. It seemed as if what the Monster Lord had left inside of him was now taking effect. He would soon be able to return to his original world, and afterward, he could take his revenge on this guy.

Hm? Wait, why is he smiling at me?

He can see me?

But how is that possible?!

What Zu An did afterward completely crushed all of the Emissary's fantasies. Zu An waved his sleeves, and just like that the Emissary's connection with the mother star was cut and he was taken into a strange space.

Then, he saw a scene he would never forget even if he lived ten lifetimes; it featured all manner of tortures in Hell’s eighteen cities. He couldn't help but swallow with difficulty.

Aren’t these guys a bit too extreme?

“My patience has a limit. Are you going to speak now, or after you experience the eighteen layers of Hell’s torment?” Zu An’s voice echoed throughout the place.

The True Demon Emissary immediately felt all courage wither away. Not too long ago, Zu An had clearly spoken similar words, but why were they now so much scarier? It was as if Zu An was the deity of this world, and the Emissary's fate could be decided by a single whim.

The Emissary felt as if he was facing his natural predator!

There was no further explanation, but he suddenly realized that Zu An was the underworld emperor, and almost cried.

Just what the hell did I do in my last life to deserve this? I actually ended up making a guy like this my enemy.

“I’ll talk, I’ll talk right now!” the True Demon Emissary quickly said.

“No, it’s too late,” Zu An said indifferently, then threw him straight into the Continuous Hell.

The True Demon Emissary was dumbfounded.

Why aren’t you behaving like a normal person?

He screamed endlessly inside. He had never imagined that there could be such great torture in this world. Only after a stick of incense’s time did Zu An fish him out from the Continuous Hell.

After this brief experience, the True Demon Emissary had already completely broken down. He clearly felt as if he had undergone countless years of torture inside, yet only a short time had passed. If he really did suffer for countless years, just how miserable would that be?

When he saw that the Emissary was now scared witless, Zu An knew he wouldn’t dare to try any tricks or deception. He asked, “Your identity?”

“My name is Donaire; I am the young lord of the True Demon race,” said the True Demon Emissary quickly. He was scared that Zu An would be unsatisfied with his answer and that he would be sent to that terrifying place again.

“What kind of relationship does the True Demon race have with the Demon race of this world?” Zu An asked. According to his previous questioning of other monsters, he knew that the True Demon race was a top-tier power even in the entire Monster World, and that even the Monster Lord treated them with added courtesy.

“Our True Demon race is a higher-level Demon race. The Demon race of this world is from a lineage that some True Demons left behind in this world countless years ago. But as the years went on, the bloodline became weak, so that's why they're much weaker than we are. But I didn’t lie to the great clans before. This is why I was able to activate their ancient bloodlines,” said the True Demon Emissary.

Zu An frowned slightly. The True Demon Race were the Demon race’s ancestors after all! Still, he could vaguely sense that something was strange. He was now one with this world, so he could clearly sense that the Demon race and the monsters were significantly different. But he couldn't figure out exactly why that was either, so he could only temporarily put aside his confusion.

“What is your mission in this world?” he asked directly.

“To build a transport formation for the Monster World’s creatures to enter this world,” the True Demon Emissary said quickly.

“Are the key points of the transport formation the Four Symbols Stones?” Zu An asked. He was also proficient in formations and knew just what kind of incredibly profound formation it would take to connect the endless cosmos, and that it would need an insane amount of energy and special materials.

“That’s right. The True Demon race’s ancestors recorded that this world contained the Four Symbols Stones that were left in this world by the first ancestors. They can open up a path through the heavens,” the True Demon Emissary replied.

“Why is your Monster World so dead set on our world? If they have this ability, they could have easily targeted other worlds.” Zu An had always felt that something was strange. He had already thwarted several of the monsters’ plans, and the world barrier had even been stabilized. Normally, they shouldn’t have been able to invade again, and yet they'd still expended so much effort to send in this True Demon Emissary. He just felt that something was fishy.

The True Demon Emissary sighed and said, “We have no choice. It’s because our world is about to be destroyed.”
