I am a living immortal.

Chapter 593 The terrifying talent

Chance combined with talent resulted in such an unprecedented rate of progress. If anyone knew that such strength had been achieved in just one year, countless hearts would be shattered. However, this was the reality; the world wasn't as fair as one might imagine.

And this is the result of hard work.

The old goat is quite casual about it. If he encounters someone, he'll think about the next step, but if he doesn't, he'll never actively seek them out. Perhaps it's precisely this personality that has shaped his talent.

Now that he'd encountered it, the old goat remembered: Oh, time to improve my strength. That's right, in the old goat's mind, improving strength was as easy as drinking water. Find a direction, then work hard, and your strength will improve.

This is how he came to be. If it weren't for the fact that Shenlong's strength was innate and hadn't been achieved with much effort, he would have been envious and jealous. Such talent and yet he didn't even work hard.

I don't know what to say.

If you must say it, it's precisely this kind of talent that's perfectly aligned with the times that's allowed him to improve so quickly. There are pros and cons, and there are gains and losses. The old goat is definitely a favorite of heaven and earth.

Maybe he is the illegitimate son of heaven.

A single grain reserve had reached the pinnacle of world power over the course of a century. Even the stories wouldn't dare to compose such a story, but the reality is even more outrageous than imagined.

Back to the present, the reason why the old goat wanted to spare the other person's life was to let him see the direction in which the demon clan was heading and the path ahead for the great demon.

As long as they knew this path, the other paths of the old goat would work together to lift the demon path. When the old goat achieved the Great Demon Transformation, it reached its peak in one step. This was because the paths within the old goat were like water, interconnected. The other paths far surpassed the demon path, and once the demon path broke free of its shackles, it could directly parallel the others.

This is the one good thing about this world.

If one principle is mastered, all principles will be understood, rather than the multiplier resources required to pursue multiple paths simultaneously. Strength is constrained by understanding the Dao. This is why few succeed in pursuing multiple paths simultaneously. If you don't even understand one, how can you possibly succeed in pursuing multiple paths simultaneously? However, the old goat had no such worries. He was surrounded by those who had reached the highest levels of achievement in the ways of the gods, immortals, and martial arts. Furthermore, his extraordinary talent made his achievements possible.

An ordinary person would not even know how he died.

Therefore, the parallel existence of various paths is the capriciousness of those gifted with gifts. The old goat had unknowingly moved to the forefront. Who could he turn to for justice?

Mirage Dragon looked at this insignificant old goat. If he truly broke through to the level of a Great Demon, wouldn't his strength be even greater, perhaps even reaching the pinnacle? The thought of this made even an innate god like him feel a pang of inexplicable jealousy. It really is true that comparison kills.

The two men's conversation hadn't been carried out behind Yue Shanque's back. Yue Shanque wore a wry smile. In those few short sentences, a deluge of information had already been revealed. First, his survival remained uncertain; second, these two unfathomable beings weren't even in a dominant position; and finally, their target was indeed the leader of the Demon Alliance.

Well, it’s in the other party’s hands anyway.

Then let's wait. This group is not simple at first glance, and no one knows where they came from. Just like the leader of the Demon Alliance, no one has heard of them before, and they are unknown, but their strength is very strong.

Yue Shanque is a courageous creature with a flexible and adaptable character, and he is also very perceptive. Therefore, many people in the Demon Alliance have good relations with him, and even if they don't have good relations with him, they won't have any enemies. This is why the Demon Alliance sent him here.

He quickly adapted to the high pressure.

He wouldn't die anytime soon. The fact that those two didn't kill him right away suggested he was still useful. Considering what he'd said before, they probably wanted him as a guide. The chances of survival were high, but he couldn't be careless. Yue Shanque's eyes darted around. He was a tall, thin young man, giving off a shrewd vibe.

Time passed little by little, and no one was in a hurry.

After killing Su Qingtu, Su Mu inspected the area again. After all, this fox was quite skilled at escaping, and he was not without tricks like faking his own death or taking someone else's place, so he had to be cautious.

Only go and reunite after making sure he is really dead.

When he found the two with Xuan Mo, he was a little surprised. They seemed to have something to discuss with him, and the big demon observing him from the ground was confused about what was going on.

The old goat explained it briefly to Su Mu, and she understood. The Demon Alliance—an organization no one else seemed to have heard of, but he seemed to have heard of it. It seemed to be something the Saint Sovereign had mentioned. The Saint Sovereign had always been navigating the tributaries of the future. Although the Saint Sovereign had become a truly independent individual, a connection to Su Mu still existed.

The tributaries of the future are real and fake, some will be reflected in the present, while others will not.

The Demon Alliance will also be an important part of the future tributaries.

Though often playing a supporting role, they make different choices in different situations. There are betrayals, and there are battles alongside; there are moments of standing in opposition to the times, and moments of steadfast protection. This organization, judging by its future performance, is volatile, oscillating between good and evil. Most of the tributaries and forces make similar decisions, with only a few differing. But the Demon Alliance is different; it's not just a matter of choice.

Rather, no matter what position he took, he would give it his all. Once he made a decision, he would be unwavering and resolute, as if he was born to take that position. However, the numerous side quests and the many different options left even the Saint Lord feeling disoriented. It was precisely this that impressed him so deeply.

I didn't expect that the signs would appear now.

Compared to later generations, the current Demon Alliance is still in the early stages of development, but the leader is a powerful being.

As for the old goat's request, Su Mu must agree.

The three looked at Su Mu, awaiting his response. Su Mu chuckled, "Since you've made up your mind, go ahead." He knew the old goat. Beneath its seemingly lazy exterior lay a meticulous mind. Besides, its strength was already formidable. Instead of just staying around, why not go out and explore?

It just so happened that the Demon Alliance leader's appearance this time would help Old Goat better understand the path forward. He had no reason to stop him.

The old goat knew what choice Su Mu would make. This opportunity was rare. Although the leader of the Demon Alliance was there, it would be difficult to infiltrate their inner circle after some time.

Thinking of this, he turned his gaze to the Leaping Tit.
