Chapter 426 The Slothful Demon King
Lin Tian wasn't particularly interested in this guy's house, so after glancing at it a few times, he looked away.
His destination was still that big guy sleeping soundly on the stone bed.
Otherwise, how could he be called the Demon King? This guy is completely different from other evil spirits at first glance.
First of all, he was enormous. Lin Tian looked at the stone bed where he slept and estimated that it was about 4 or 5 meters wide, but even so, it was only enough for that guy to barely fit down.
It even looked a bit crowded, since one of the guy's legs was dangling off the stone bed.
Secondly, there's his appearance. Like other demons, he has black skin, but compared to ordinary demons, his skin seems smoother, as if it's coated with a layer of oil.
Of course, Lin Tian could only tell this after examining it closely. Ordinary people would find it difficult to see the difference between this guy's skin and that of an ordinary demon with the naked eye.
Besides these advantages over ordinary demons, the Sloth Demon King also has many unique characteristics.
The Sloth King's hands, feet, neck, and waist were extremely slender. Of course, this slenderness was relative to his other parts. Thanks to his physique, even though his limbs were slender, they were still much thicker than those of a human.
Because of the slenderness of these few parts, his other parts appeared extremely bulky.
Whether it's the limbs, the chest, or the head, it all gives the impression of a tumor.
The head is alright, it has a certain resemblance to the image, but if you look at it for a while, you'll find that his face looks a bit like a Halloween pumpkin head.
I'd say they bear a striking resemblance...
Besides that, his most distinctive feature is his pair of large bat wings.
Those bat wings were terrifyingly large, even far exceeding the size of his body. One can imagine the immense destructive power they would cause when they flapped.
However, since he was sleeping at the time, he used the two large bat wings as a mattress, pressing them firmly under his body.
This guy must be the Sloth King...
After observing his entire body, Lin Tian couldn't help but nod.
He was indeed different from those small fry outside; after all, his aura alone was exceptionally powerful.
This feels like it might be at least a golden four-day period, right?
Without a doubt, this guy is clearly the strongest enemy Lin Tian has encountered in this operation so far.
However, he wasn't too worried, because his cultivation level had already improved not long ago.
He has now reached level 45 in cultivation. Although it has consumed a lot of materials, his strength has been greatly improved.
According to Lin Tian's calculations, the power of a level 45 Daoist is roughly equivalent to that of a Six-Day Sun. Of course, this calculation only considers the power derived from pure Daoist cultivation.
But besides that, he also has equipment, magic weapons, skills, elixirs, and all sorts of things that can enhance his combat abilities.
Therefore, even if the Seventh Day arrives, Lin Tian is confident in his ability to fight. Even if he unexpectedly encounters a powerful figure from the Eighth or Ninth Day, he has the ability to protect himself.
Of course, he knew that there were always people stronger than him and that there was always something beyond his reach. Although he was now considered a strong person on the entire continent, with the resurgence of spiritual energy, there would only be more and more strong people like him.
He must steadily improve in order to consolidate his current position.
After all, not long ago, he had discovered a level higher than the Gold rank.
Before he becomes strong enough to sweep everything away, Lin Tian will not be too arrogant.
For example, even though he is confident enough to defeat the Sloth King, he has not chosen to attack him head-on.
Instead, taking advantage of their stealth, they planned to slowly circle around to the Sloth Demon King and execute him while he slept.
After giving a wink to the two people following behind, Lin Tian stepped forward alone. He was still in mosquito form, but as he got close, he first used the Gathering Form and Dispersing Qi technique, and then returned to his original form.
Although the transformation technique can reduce one's presence, it is still best to be cautious. After all, the one in front of us is much stronger than other demons, and no one knows how strong his perception is.
Lin Tian didn't believe this guy could sense the ability to gather and disperse energy like a bug in the system. If he really could sense it, then he would admit defeat.
Fortunately, the Sloth Demon King was not as overpowered as Lin Tian had imagined. Even when Lin Tian, who was in stealth mode, came right in front of him, the Sloth Demon King did not notice him at all.
Looking at the lazy demon king fast asleep, Lin Tian was already thinking about how to give him a good thrashing.
There's no need to worry about the invisibility time limit, because during this period, Lin Tian not only improved his cultivation level but also upgraded his skills.
[Gathering and Dispersing Qi LV20:]
Persistent bonus: 20%
Consumption reduction: 20%
Vertical and Horizontal (LV5): Increases your movement speed when using this skill.
Disrupt the Void (LV10): After using this skill, the defense of your decoy is increased.
Insight (LV15): When transforming into Qi, it increases critical hit damage and critical hit rate by a small amount per second. This skill effect is stacked, and the maximum number of stacks depends on the skill level. Currently, it can stack up to (20) layers.
Qi Cultivation (LV20): Using this skill slightly increases the duration of Qi Transformation.
After the Gathering and Dispersing Qi skill is upgraded to level 20, in addition to the addition of the original effects, two new characteristics are added to the skill.
The first characteristic is pure damage; as your Qi transformation lasts longer, your attacks will become stronger.
The second one increases the time you can transform into invisible Qi. Combined with the basic bonus, Lin Tian now has several minutes of Qi transformation time.
Therefore, he doesn't need to rush into an attack; instead, he can examine the situation first.
Since he had decided to give this guy a good beating, Lin Tian was determined to go all out. So, after some thought, Lin Tian activated the Renewal Mode.
This mode can automatically scan for the opponent's weaknesses, and even if there are none, it can create one. Combined with the damage increase from the "Gathering and Dispersing Qi" technique, and with the Panlong Staff that Lin Tian just took out, this strike will definitely deal a heavy blow to the opponent.
He could actually stack the damage even higher, given the added bonus from the elixir, but he still didn't choose to do so.
After all, the Sloth Demon King's strength was only an estimate. If he wasn't that strong, and he killed him in one go, he would have no one left to interrogate.
This is enough for now; it teaches him a lesson without killing him outright.
perfect!
