Chapter 2609: Mechanical Heart Demon
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Song Shuhang was genuinely curious about the kind of inner demon he would have. There was a time when he even tried to nurture his own inner demon.
Unfortunately, due to his terrifying acc.u.mulation of merit, it was exceedingly difficult for him to generate an inner demon under the suppression of the virtuous lamia.
His inner demon was like a small snowflake, while the virtuous lamia was like the scorching sun in midsummer. The Inner Cute Demon didn’t even have time to condense into a snowman. Just as the little snowflakes appeared, they melted away.
However, today, in the Devil Sea Realm’s ancient tribulation, he finally had the chance to confront his inner demon. It was a very rare opportunity that likely only occurred once in his long cultivation journey.
“Come out, let me see what you look like, demon,” Song Shuhang said with a gentle smile.
A cultivator’s inner demon was typically something they deeply desired… Or perhaps it was an ent.i.ty completely opposite to their own nature.
“So, what will my inner demon look like? Will it be a graceful and gentlemanly swordsman? Or perhaps a wealth-themed inner demon resembling a spirit stone? Or maybe a daredevil completely different from my cautious nature?” Song Shuhangs face beneath the mask was filled with antic.i.p.ation.
In the Inner World, the fairy maidens and senior cultivators watching the broadcast shared Song Shuhangs antic.i.p.ation.
Fairy Creation was at a loss for words.
“Fairy Creation, you’re right,” Senior Turtle nodded.
“If I were Boss Songs inner demon, I definitely wouldn’t come out. Because if I did, I’d likely be turned into an ingredient by the neighboring Immortal Fairy Bie Xue,” said Lady Onion seriously.
Meanwhile, in the Heavenly City fragment’s Cafeteria No, 111 in the Inner World, Immortal Fairy Bie Xue was busy enriching the menu of the Xie w.a.n.g, while also researching how to make the inner demon tribulation sas.h.i.+mi even fresher.
Song Shuhangs inner demon hadn’t even appeared yet, but its fate was already sealed.
“But what if it’s an obedient inner demon? As long as Song Shuhangs inner demon has a stronger survival instinct, it might manifest as a helper similar to Black- skinned Soft Feather. As long as it’s obedient and sensible, it might become Song Shuhangs right-hand man and clone. It’ll ensure its survival without being sliced,” Pavilion Master Chu said slowly.
“Pavilion Master Chu, don’t say such terrifying things. Besides, Scarlet Heaven
Sword and I are inner demons, which is different from the inner demon tribulation. We are only special ent.i.ties, while the demonheart tribulation is a trial,” the black- skinned Soft Feather said seriously.
Fairy Creation nodded and corrected herself, “The Inner Demon Tribulation is
“Fairy Creation, you’re right,” The White Dragon nodded, and slowly said, “However, Shuhang has always been an unexpected guy. Perhaps his inner demon will also be different and unexpected?”
“For example, manifesting an inner demon wife?” Heart Demon Scarlet Heaven Sword couldn’t help but say, “Think about it, Shuhang is about to undergo sterilization… He should be the youngest cultivator in the universe to be sterilized due to his realm. Faced with the pressure of sterilization, his inner demon might create a wife and take the opportunity to introduce Song Shuhang to the adult world.”
“Speaking of sterilization, I have to mention my advantage,” Pavilion Master Chu suddenly smiled and said, “My path to immortality involves the rules of life and death. In other words, given some time, I can master the laws of ‘life’ and solve the problem of a Profound Sage being infertile. Fellow Daoist White Scarf, you’ve already lost in this aspect!’
The White Dragon was speechless.
“How did you change the topic? Did you get stuck on Song Shuhangs head for too long and get infected with the problem of ‘suddenly changing the topic aimlessly?”
At that moment, Su Clan’s Sixteen’s long eyelashes began to flutter. Having left Senior White Two’s sleepy halo and rested for a while, she finally regained her spirit.
As soon as she opened her eyes, she saw Song Shuhangs tribulation happening ‘live’ before her eyes.
“Shuhang has already started transcending his tribulation?” Sixteen bit her lip and said softly.
“I’ve already transcended the fourth wave of the Inner Demon Tribulation. I estimate that I should be able to end the Eighth Stage Tribulation very soon and demonstrate my divinity in front of others to condense my sixth Sage Seal.” Song Shuhangs voice rang in Sixteen’s ears.
Sixteen was taken aback. “Shuhang, are you already able to open your Inner
World in the tribulation transcending s.p.a.ce?”
“No, the Devil Sea Realm is extremely chaotic. There’s no such thing as a ‘tribulation transcending s.p.a.ce’. Sixteen, you watch first. My inner demon is about to come out!” Song Shuhang was like a child eager to show off his new toy to everyone. He was ready to reveal his inner demon that was about to be born.
As they spoke, a pitch-black shadow finally appeared in Song Shuhangs shadow on the screen of the live broadcast—his inner demon!
However, as soon as it appeared, a charred cloud of white smoke suddenly emerged from its body. It started the inner demon into retreating back into the shadows.
“Fairy Virtue, move aside. Don’t scare the inner demon,” Song Shuhang warned.
The virtuous lamia s.h.i.+fted to the side, feeling wronged, and tried her best to restrain the radiation of the power of virtue on her body. She didn’t do it on purpose. After all, she had been living with Heart Demon Scarlet Heaven Sword and Black- skinned Soft Feather. As long as she paid a little attention, they wouldn’t be harmed by her light of virtue.
She didn’t expect Song Shuhangs newly-born inner demon to be so fragile.
Once the virtuous lamia had moved aside, the inner demon in Song Shuhangs shadow began to slowly reappear. However, this time, it was even more cautious. It first stretched out a palm—a mechanical palm.
The s.h.i.+ny black metal texture was completely different from Song Shuhangs steel hands. It was a real mechanical structure.
“It’s a mechanical type,” Song Shuhang felt somewhat disappointed… Everyone knew that robots weren’t appetizing and were hard to chew on.
From this perspective, Song Shuhangs inner demon had made the right choice. If it didn’t want to be eaten, it had to turn itself into something indigestible.
“Be careful, it must be inedible. It can’t just be something that’s not tasty. One had to know that if it was just not delicious, people might even find out its medicinal value and turn it from an ingredient into a medicinal herb,” Pavilion Master Chu said.
At the same time, the seniors in the Inner World sighed in unison.
The sword was speechless. “I’m a sword. That’s great.”
“This inner demon is probably the inner demon machine? Could it be that Song Shuhangs ‘Steel Incarnation’ was taken away by the Heavenly Emperor, leaving him with regret? That’s why he became ill after thinking about it for a long time, and his inner demon became the mechanical Song Shuhang?’! the White Dragon guessed.
“I feel that things are not that simple,” Pavilion Master Chu didn’t care what the White Dragon said, she just had to object.
As he spoke, the mechanical palm in the shadows began to move agilely.
The mechanical fingers were weaving something.
A moment later, a well-fried heart- shaped steak was placed on a plate and appeared in the mechanical palm of the Mental Demon..
