Becoming the Demon Lord: Taming the Demon Queen Begins

Chapter 37: Celestial Feather Form!



A master of various arcane arts, who had nearly lost his life due to the stone lock, he knew all too well how terrifying the seal guarding the Mystic Realm was.

Under their watchful eyes, Timothy nonchalantly placed his hand on the stone lock.

"No reaction at all!"

Even the robed elder had nearly died the instant he touched it, so why didn\'t this kid trigger any backlash from the stone lock\'s energy?

Umbral Tyrant\'s gaze froze for a moment, then he noticed a faint, flowing spiritual energy entering the stone lock from Timothy\'s arm.

\'Could it be, this kid actually has a way to break it?\'

As everyone watched, the stone lock, which seemed impervious and stirred no ripples, suddenly was covered in a layer of white light.

Within this white light, there was a profound aura that left people speechless.

The light shifted, as if ethereal, holy sounds were echoing through the air.

It was as if an invisible key existed, capable of unlocking everything.

The onlookers were filled with disbelief as they watched the scene unfold.

"Crack, crack, crack."

With successive cracking sounds, the outer shell of the stone lock began to fracture, revealing a brass-colored second layer.

He had actually broken through the first layer of the stone lock! How was that possible!

The one-armed elder couldn\'t believe it.

He knew better than anyone just how terrifying the seal on the stone lock was.

Even now, the terrifying sensation of an endless abyss still made his heart shudder.

"What exactly did you use!" he exclaimed, staring at Timothy in shock.

Timothy, however, completely ignored him and applied a bit more force.

"Crack."

The second layer of brass also shattered with a loud bang.

The outer shell fell to the ground, revealing the final golden lock.

The one-armed elder\'s eyes widened.

He had painstakingly studied arcane arts and various formations for hundreds of years, thinking his understanding far surpassed that of ordinary people.

Yet, the stone lock that had cost him an arm and nearly his life was being unlocked by this young man who wasn\'t even a fraction of his age!

The backlash from the stone lock wasn\'t fully suppressed, and the spiritual energy at the site of his missing arm was in complete disarray.

Overwhelmed by a surge of blood and energy, the one-armed elder\'s body went into a frenzy, completely out of control.

"Puh!"

A mouthful of fresh blood sprayed out, accompanied by the sound of his spirit breaking. The elder could no longer hold himself up and collapsed to the ground.

With his cultivation severely damaged and his spirit broken, not to mention his missing arm, the elder was now no different from a cripple!

[Breaking the Mystic Core expert\'s spirit, reward received, skill point +1, summoning the supreme form "Celestial Feather Form" once]

As the system voice rang out, Timothy withdrew his hand from the stone lock.

"Come on, kid, why stop now?" At this moment, Umbral Tyrant and the others were full of flattery.

After all, aside from Timothy, none of them could break the stone lock.

If they couldn\'t open the lock, their efforts to sneak in at great cost would have been in vain.

Timothy simply spread his hands towards them: "Why should I bother doing something so thankless?"

"This..."

After a moment of silence, Umbral Tyrant quickly said, "We were wrong in our attitude towards you earlier, and I\'m willing to apologize now."

"Please, we need your help to break this stone lock. Once we\'re inside, no matter who gets the inheritance, we\'re willing to share half of it with you."

Timothy just scoffed. "Once we\'re inside, I\'ll be useless, and I don\'t care about the treasures inside. If you want me to open the lock, give me something now."

"You!" Umbral Tyrant clenched his teeth.

When had someone of his stature ever been threatened like this?

But now, the only chance to get inside rested on relying on Timothy, and he had no choice but to swallow his pride.

"Tell me what you want, as long as it\'s within my power, I\'ll do my best to satisfy it."

"True to your reputation, Umbral Tyrant, always so honorable," Timothy clapped him on the shoulder heartily. "Alright then, it\'s a deal! Please gift me your magical weapon, Umbra Slash, and Sunflare Elder\'s \'Hundred Beauties Spring Palace Scroll.\' Then, I\'ll do my best to help you break the lock."

Umbral Tyrant\'s forced smile instantly cooled.

Umbra Slash was a magical weapon he had relied on for many years.

It could transform into a blade that cuts through anything or a shield to protect oneself.

Offensive and defensive, it could kill an enemy in an instant if they showed the slightest lapse.

How could he possibly give away this treasure that was almost connected to his very essence?

Anger surged within him, and Umbral Tyrant was about to make a move.

"Hey, I say, this brother has helped us so much, these little things shouldn\'t be a problem."

At this moment, Sunflare Elder stepped forward, respectfully taking out the \'Hundred Beauties Spring Palace Scroll\' and offering it to Timothy with both hands: "Please accept this. Although there\'s a great difference in our ages and cultivation levels, if you can open this stone lock, I\'m willing to consider you a brother from now on. If I have a bite of meat, you\'ll definitely have a sip of soup!"

Umbral Tyrant was shocked.

How precious was the \'Hundred Beauties Spring Palace Scroll\'? That stingy old Sunflare Elder was actually willing to part with it!

"No way."

Umbral Tyrant\'s eyes shifted, quickly catching the hidden smirk on Sunflare Elder\'s face.

He instantly understood.

This young man, although he had a strange method to break through profound formations, was only at the Energy Foundation level.

Killing him would be a matter of moments.

So what if he gave it to him?

The moment the stone lock shattered, he could easily crush him with a single finger!

"I was hasty just now. Although Umbra Slash has been with me for many years, since you desire it, please accept it," Umbral Tyrant said, his smile hiding his true feelings as he offered his most treasured Umbra Slash.

Timothy seemed touched: "Such noble seniors, truly generous without a hint of stinginess!"

With that, he unhesitatingly took both treasures.

Umbral Tyrant and Sunflare Elder felt a twitch in their smiles but managed to suppress their anger.

Timothy placed his hand back on the golden stone lock.

The light swirled, and a powerful aura surged within the lock.

With a loud "boom," the final stone lock shattered!

Instantly, Umbral Tyrant and Sunflare Elder locked their murderous gazes on Timothy.

But before they could act.

Timothy, who had been prepared, kicked open the door, grabbed Emily\'s hand, and dashed into the great hall.

"Over your dead body!" Umbral Tyrant roared, charging into the hall first.

"Celestial Feather Form!"

Suddenly, an immense aura surged behind Timothy, causing his pupils to constrict sharply.
