Evil Demons were offsprings of the Mother of Reproduction, the elites of the Night Family Clan.
However, amongst them, there could be another situation—a degenerated Evil Demon Hunter!
They, who accepted the power of an Evil Demon and original energy, were fully capable of becoming an Evil Demon once they degenerated!
This was more evidence that the powers of Demon Hunters and the Night Family Clans were similar in nature.
"Unfortunately, how can the Demon Hunter Headquarter admit this? And openly record it into history?"
Hence, they eliminated all records, including the information regarding the birth and history of these Evil Demon Hunters, even a few isolated phrases weren't allowed to be recorded down.
"A human that degenerated into an Evil Demon? Interesting!"
Fang Yuan slightly bowed to thank him, and promptly said with a straight face, "Thank you for your goodwill… Mr. Evil Demon. I won't leave Sacred Mountain, but I can make arrangements for Almon and the others to leave first."
"Anything…"
Urias's figure gradually became illusionary and turned into jade-green flames before exploding. "Demon Hunter… If we meet on the battlefield one day, I won't mind tasting your soul."
…
"Even if he had become an Evil Demon, he's still as unreliable as a human?"
Fang Yuan couldn't sense the other party's murderous intent and was slightly speechless as he went back into the house.
"Sir!"
At this moment, Peter and Fenrir had woken up and were filled with shame.
"Nothing… With your current strength, it truly is difficult to block an Evil Demon…"
Fang Yuan casually found a chair to sit on and rubbed the space between his brows.
It was very energy consuming to perform the Evil Demon Hunter advancement ritual, and even more so to scheme against an Evil Demon.
Moreover, the news that Urias brought over was valuable.
"Evil Demons have once again initiated a large counter-attack?"
Obviously, after the huge failure at Sacred Mountain, the Evil Demons must have had something they could rely on if they dared to return.
"Would this situation be my opportunity?"
Fang Yuan pondered silently and looked at Almon, who was at the side and was showing that she was feeling ill at ease.
Originally, he thought that Urias would take away the blood descendant that he obviously had high hopes on, but he had, unexpectedly, left her here.
"Could it be that… this Evil Demon isn't mixing well with the Night Family Clans, or he wouldn't be able to protect her once Almon's unusual identity as an Evil Demon Hunter is discovered?"
"Mister…"
Almon's eyes were slightly red. "What… what's happening to me?"
"Nothing, it's just that you have a powerful ancestor. You obtained power from its blood, just like that!"
Fang Yuan shrugged. "Later on, I'll give you a full body check again and guide you on how to control such a power…"
"Al… alright!"
Unsure of what she was imagining, Almon's face was slightly red, but she still bravely agreed promptly afterward.
…
Three days later, Fang Yuan's notebook had a large amount of additional content:
"The most basic ability of an Evil Demon Hunter is part of the demonization… As their blood class is at the top of the Night Family Clans, one has a natural, frightening ability against other lower classes Night Family Clans. One is even immune to the effects of an Evil Demon's 'Evil' and 'Chaos' powers…"
"Hence, Evil Demon Hunters, are Demon Hunters that are truly suited to killing Evil Demons!"
"The green flame ability that Almon awakened can be seen as an accompaniment of the blood… So to say, the stronger an Evil Demon is, the higher the starting point and potential of the created Evil Demon Hunter…"
…
With Almon, a successful product from the experiment, and a series of statistics from the experiment after that, Fang Yuan was immediately very confident about his own plan.
Needless to say, he also had Urias's trials and errors that helped him to break through the last obstacle.
"Of course, before this…"
He looked in the direction of Sacred Mountain. "I must return!"
There were too many objects that were worth checking out on Sacred Mountain. No matter if it was the rumored Dead Sea Ancient Scroll, the true Sacred Cup, or the other objects, all of them moved him.
"However, I have to improve my own strength so I can obtain them."
Fang Yuan looked in a certain direction.
Monster Sob and Ternetheo's skin were his greatest trump cards!
He had long kept these two objects a secret and didn't even bring them to Sacred Mountain, in the fear that Demon Hunters with sensitive noses would be able to discover them.
Up until now, he had quite the confidence in producing Ternetheo's skin into a true Elite Demon Weapon using his accumulated and reserved knowledge. With the power of Monster Sob, he would be able to hunt and kill everything, even if it was a Titled Demon Hunter or an Evil Demon!
This would be the prerequisite of gaining the advantage in a confusing situation!
…
"Ternetheo's skin is regarded as weak, in the aspect of shielding effect, among the Evil Demon materials. However, the crucial point is still the natural symbols on it. They're focused on the aspect of concealment and hiding—I must completely make full use of this advantage…"
Fang Yuan wanted to do it once he thought about it. He rode on Fenrir and rushed to the location of his hidden treasures.
"The sniper of the previous world had to wear camouflage uniform in the wilderness. It seems like I can make developments in that direction…"
Monster Sob's damaging power was very shocking, however, it was a pity that it was troublesome to load it, and it couldn't be used to attack repeatedly. Moreover, the energy consumption of one shot was too high.
Despite these flaws, they weren't much of a problem to Fang Yuan.
With the aid of magic energy, his marksmanship with a gun was definitely at the same level as a Holy Gunman.
If he was able to supplement it with the Evil Demon's power of concealment and hiding, he would definitely become a nightmare for many Power Obtainers!
Fenrir continued to gallop and finally stopped on a flat plain.
This was a vast and large plain that Fang Yuan, Uncle Jock, and the others had passed by when they were on the way to Kotori City.
As long as one was highly skilled in the means of concealment, and they were able to hide an object's presence, no person or Evil Demon would be able to find the object that was buried and hidden in a pit unless they were super lucky.
"I didn't dare to bring these items into Kotori City, due to the countless talents there. There are Titled Demon Hunters everywhere, if they discovered anything, then there's nothing to explain."
No matter how good one's concealment technique was, there were also times when flaws appear.
However, Fang Yuan decided to risk it then.
After all, wealth would only come when risks are taken. If he wanted to achieve more, there wouldn't be any other opportunities, apart from the Evil Demon's siege this time.
"It's here… Dig!"
Fang Yuan stopped in front of a normal wasteland and patted Fenrir's head.
Ahwhoooo!
Fenrir used its front claws to dig and was able to dig a large pit in a short amount of time.
Ding!
After reaching a certain depth, a box was dug out. On it was concealing symbols packed together, and the box was sealed with Black Magic techniques. None of its presence and power were leaking out.
However, a malevolent aura appeared when the box was opened, and the long body of the Legendary Demon Gun—Monster Sob's—was revealed to the man and wolf.
Beside it was a ball of skin, that emitted the fearful presence of an Evil Demon.
Whooo! Whooo…
Feeling that power, Fenrir was slightly drooping. It raised its head but didn't dare to howl and could only whimper quietly.
"That's…"
Seeing how it acted, Fang Yuan was so mad that he started to laugh out loud. "You're going to bite even a god in the future. What's a mere Evil Demon in comparison?"
However, he decided in his heart that its modification couldn't be delayed anymore.
Without being able to face an Evil Demon, it wouldn't eventually be able to become his elite military force.
Of course, at the moment, with those two objects, he still went ahead to a blacksmith shop that he had long prepared, and he began preparing to start the process of smelting.
The shop was empty, the original blacksmith had either died or fled. Fang Yuan could nicely recycle his shop.
However, Fang Yuan couldn't take a fancy to any of his tools and threw away most of them.
Promptly, he removed his own sword and placed it on top of the anvil.
His Starry Night sword was a standard weapon for Demon Hunters. In the times where Demon Hunters had to face complicated situations and enemies that were increasingly dangerous, it wasn't suitable to be used anymore.
Hence, Fang Yuan prepared to reforge it once again as he also regarded it as practice.
"In order to forge Starry Night into a Demon Weapon, the leftover ingredients from before can be used fully… As for Howling Grief, it can be replaced completely after I have Monster Sob…"
Fang Yuan came to the front of the furnace and scattered powder, that he had had specially made, into the furnace.
Whoosh!
Soon after, the flames rose and turned green, bringing with it shocking waves of fire.
"Black Magic technique—High temperature space!"
Fang Yuan didn't stop moving and went on to take out a few ingredients to perform the skill, which was able to raise the temperature even higher.
Amongst the startling flames, the body of Starry Night glowed with a rich display of lights and colors and started melting slightly.
"Now!"
His eyes glistened as he took out a fiery-red stone and many more unique ingredients, tossing them into the fire.
"Shaping hands!"
There appeared to be large hands amidst the flames, that grounded the ingredients into powder before they fused into the metal of the sword.
This wasn't the means of an Alchemist anymore, but was a technique that was uniquely created by Fang Yuan. He had used the Black Magic technique to push for the forging, and it could produce completely better results than a normal Alchemist.
Ping! Ping!
After a long time, he took out the orange-red sword from the fire and began to forge it quickly.
The rhythmic sounds of the "dings" and "dangs" promptly united and formed a beautiful piece of music.
At night, a brand new large sword was displayed in front of Fang Yuan. It was a little longer than the previous sword, its body seemed to emit out a red glow.
"By adding a large amount of fire-type energetic spiritual energy, Starry Night now has the three characteristics—[Razor Sharp], [Armor Break], and [Flames], and can totally be called a high-class Demon Weapon."
Fang Yuan was very satisfied with this, and afterward, he directed his gaze at Ternetheo's skin.
Before going to Sacred Mountain to cultivate, he didn't have the confidence to forge and refine this piece of skin. However, the Demon Hunter Headquarters had countless numbers of classic books that contained methods on how to handle Evil Demon ingredients inside them.
In addition to his practice of producing an Evil Demon Hunter, his confidence and assurance suddenly increased.
"Compared to other Master Alchemists, I have a huge advantage, which is my good ingredients! As long as I'm able to activate the power of the symbols on it, it'll be enough to achieve the requirements of being an Elite Demon Weapon!"
Fang Yuan stared at the Evil Demon's skin with determination but didn't start moving immediately.
He also needed some rest after completing the forging of a high-class Demon Weapon. After which, he would attempt it in his best state.
