Spell-extracting magic…
It actually failed!
This unexpected situation caught the Dark Qi Sorcerer Dao Long completely off guard!
Why?
Where did it go wrong?
The incantation was absolutely flawless!
Dao Long possessed an eidetic memory. In the small secret realm where the Morning Star Hermit Society resided, he had essentially combed through every ancient tome.
Besides that, the magical texts and arcane scrolls he personally collected were countless—truly encyclopedic.
There was no way he would slip up!
So what had he overlooked?
"…I understand now!"
"It's the Demon Lord's form!"
"No wonder the Demon Lord chose to appear in this nearly human form—he actually used this method to nullify spell-extracting magic!"
Deep wrinkles creased Dao Long's face as a look of sudden enlightenment burst forth.
At this point—
There was no reason to stay any longer!
His plan had already succeeded.
He had successfully enslaved a hundred mutant elites!
Once he completed the ritual and channeled his mana to convert them all into ultimate Gray Warriors, he might very well be able to kill the Demon Lord—and extract the talismans from his corpse.
Whoosh!
Dao Long swept his curved staff, releasing a cloud of thick magical smoke that rained down like a shroud.
A sly, treacherous laugh echoed out.
"Demon Lord."
"Do keep those talismans safe for me."
"Sooner or later, their power will belong to me!"
Bang!Bang bang bang bang!!
The brown-skinned, pointy-eared elves dissolved one after another into plumes of smoke—
Dao Long vanished along with them!
"Demon Lord!"
"Why are you spacing out?"
"You could've easily kept that rotten old man from escaping!"
Zhong Su said, confused.
"Rotten old man?"
"That guy's probably not even older than me."
The Earth Demon's voice was honest and dull.
Indeed—
With the Rabbit Talisman's extreme speed, he could've grabbed Dao Long barehanded in an instant.
But the key was—
He sensed the ancient demonic power within Dao Long!
"A follower of Shuma-Gorath?"
Shen Du narrowed his eyes slightly.
The Eye Demon!
An alien ancient god the Dark Council once made brief contact with.
A great multiversal singularity!
Dao Long actually worshipped the Eye Demon?
It made sense.
After all, strange markings resembling eyes covered the right side of Dao Long's face and his forehead!
"Interesting."
The corners of Shen Du's mouth curved upward.
Now that he knew the source of Dao Long's magic, he could summon a small Dark Council meeting later and directly ask the Eye Demon for the sorcerer's coordinates!
"Demon Lord."
"I have some unfortunate news for you."
"Ms. Agness doesn't seem to have died—she vanished just as mysteriously."
Magneto delivered the report from his subordinates, adding a helpful reminder.
Disappeared?
Looks like I underestimated that witch's durability.
As expected of the master of the Darkhold.
Even a spell like Descend the Three Calamities into Naraku—powerful enough to flatten mountains and shatter the roof of the world—still failed to kill Agatha Harkness!
Or maybe she used a death-substitution spell.
Various possibilities flashed through his mind.
Shen Du grew even more intrigued.
"The mysterious organization that once plundered seven demon palaces… finally willing to show themselves?"
…
"Don't forget your promise!"
"Help us punish the slave-race that looted our sanctuaries!"
The two Dark Brothers let out a low, furious howl.
The seven demon temples—
So many priceless treasures had fallen into the hands of despicable thieves.
Originally, Shen Du had no clues. Even in the Demon Lord's memories, this history left no trace.
Until he discovered the Dark Qi Sorcerer Dao Long!
Through Dao Long, he would surely witness a far more exciting hidden world.
"Rest assured."
"All those treasures will be returned to their rightful—"
"Returned to their rightful owner."
Shen Du thumped his chest confidently.
"Oh, right."
"Big Sis asked me to pass on a message."
"Hurry up and decipher the Pan'ku Box!"
"She can't wait to return and reign over Fusang!"
Earth Demon Kuai scratched his head as he recalled.
Fusang.
The domain of the Mountain Demon, Po Gang.
Once vast, fertile, resource-rich—one of the most dazzling continents in the Pacific.
But the reason it had fallen into its current miserable state was entirely due to Po Gang's uncontrollable appetite.
Because Po Gang possessed a special ability—
Gluttony.
A boundless appetite.
Nothing in the world was inedible!
Once triggered, it could never be sated. Reason and thought evaporated, and its body swelled endlessly.
In the animated series, Tohru once absorbed Po Gang's demonic qi by accident and transformed into a colossal primordial beast, devouring skyscrapers.
"Fusang."
"The Hand's headquarters."
"The land once ruled by Tala."
"…What exactly is the beast that granted Kingpin demon power?"
Shen Du's thoughts drifted.
Soon, he snapped back and smiled.
Whatever the case—
No one would stop the ancient demons' return.
"I'll trouble you to make a trip."
"Magneto."
Shen Du snapped his fingers.
Whoosh!
Scorching magical smoke flooded outward.
In the next instant, Magneto felt the world flip upside down—suddenly he was inside a mysterious mining site, surrounded by tirelessly working mechanical laborers.
Its technological level rivaled Iron Man's enchanted armors—though simpler and lacking special features.
"What is this place?"
Magneto asked blankly.
Teleportation magic?
He had been transported to a hidden location in the blink of an eye!
Group teleportation was extremely rare—even among mutants!
"Don't ask too much."
"Just smelt all the vibranium for me."
Shen Du lifted his chin toward him.
Magneto turned—and was struck dumb.
Embedded in the mountain wall was a shimmering silver-tin mass—a metallic deposit fused seamlessly with the stone, gleaming like solidified mercury.
A radiant brilliance washed over him—
As if nature itself had carved an exquisite masterpiece.
Stunning.
Breath-stealing.
In all his decades of life, Magneto had never seen vibranium ore on this scale!
Judging by his senses—
Not less than five tons!
At the market price of a million dollars per gram…
Tens of trillions of US dollars?!
Absurd!!
If he had that much money, he could turn Genosha into a paradise on earth!
"Magneto."
"Don't forget your mission."
"Every minute you delay, Genosha grows more endangered."
"The world powers despise Genosha, after all."
Shen Du's half-smiling gaze locked onto him.
Buzz!!
Magneto's expression hardened. He steadied his emotions, then lifted his hand—
Activating his Omega-level power!
Rumble!
Rumble rumble!!
Wanda Mountain shook violently.
As if an earthquake were erupting, the interior began collapsing.
The vibranium embedded in the rock liquefied into streams of molten silver, flowing from all directions toward Magneto.
"Earth Demon."
"Raise some stone pillars."
"How about making this your palace?"
Shen Du patted his eldest brother's shoulder.
"Not bad!"
"Saves effort!"
The Earth Demon burst into a hearty laugh. He unleashed his demonic qi, and countless pillar-thick stone columns erupted from the ground, supporting the collapsing cavern.
Nearly a hundred acres of open space appeared.
A bit of cleaning, and it could serve as the Earth Demon's palace!
The beast-like stone-lion face could barely contain its excitement.
"Demon Lord!"
"You're a good one!"
"Our grudges are wiped clean!"
Earth Demon Kuai praised nonstop.
As for the five tons of vibranium—
Magneto shaped them into brick-sized ingots, stacking them like a pyramid, which were then loaded onto the train leading to the Sokovia underground base.
"Five ingots of vibranium."
"As your payment."
Buzz.
Shen Du flicked his fingers.
The Rooster Talisman's levitation magic surged.
Five bright silver ingots floated before Magneto.
"Payment?"
"This generous?"
Magneto was dumbstruck.
Five vibranium ingots—
Worth nearly ten billion dollars!
The Demon Lord was actually willing to pay him ten billion?!
For a moment, Magneto's mind drifted to a ridiculous idea—
Perhaps he should just swear loyalty to the Demon Lord.
Because this man gave too much.
"Goodbye."
Shen Du snapped his fingers again and sent the dazed Magneto away.
Just then—
Whoosh!
A figure so fast it was almost a blur appeared instantly.
"Wanda!"
"Demon Lord!"
"The paper-folding thief has been caught!"
Quicksilver said with a grin.
