This Earth Is A Bit Fearsome-Novel2

Chapter 378: What Gave You Such Confidence?

Hearing Lu Xuan figure out their purpose, the pupils of the young man with a protruding mouth and ape-like chin contracted slightly, as if one of his big secrets had been exposed.

He felt even more incredulous in his heart!

How could Lu Xuan know of the Divine Tree of Enlightenment’s existence?!

It had to be known that even in the Myriad Demon Valley, not many people knew about this. They were only told about it by their Great Ancestor before they came.

The purpose of doing so was to avoid leaking information, even if it was highly unlikely that they would do such a thing.

However, this was related to the foundation of the countless demon generations in the Myriad Demon Valley.

Seeing the expression of this young man with protruding mouth and ape-like chin, Lu Xuan knew that he had guessed right. During this time of his previous life, he had been a beggar all over the streets who had avoided getting hunted. He had not yet stepped into the road of cultivation at the time.

Lu Xuan had been in a state of ignorance towards anything that happened at this point, but he could vaguely guess a few things.

The rise of the Myriad Demon Valley in mainland Australia during his previous life was not without reason. To the humans, it seemed that demons had suddenly broken out overnight.

However, this was not the case at all. The demon race had been preparing for decades.

Compared to the human race, the demons had to pass two hurdles to get what they wanted. One was Enlightenment, commonly known as the beginning of gaining intelligence.

This was not a problem for ordinary human beings. Unless they were born with low intelligence, the intelligence of human beings would naturally grow to its peak when they reach the age of 18.

It seemed like nothing, but this was often a life and death situation for demons. Out of the 1,000, or 10,000 demons, there may have not been even one demon who could reach enlightenment.

Often because of coincidences, they may eat some magical fruit then increase their intelligence.

At this point, the vast majority of hidden demon kings were like this, and there seemed to be quite a lot of them. Compared to the countless number of demons, however, they were considered very rare.

Human beings would naturally be enlightened, the only difference being the accumulation of time. This also gained the envy of countless demons during Lu Xuan’s previous life.

Although there were other methods such as forcefully getting enlightened, these demons had inherently defective intelligence. This level of intelligence was equivalent to that of mentally handicapped humans.

No matter how much enlightenment they had reached, it would be useless because they simply lacked the ability to develop further.

Therefore, humans during Lu Xuan’s previous life paid no attention to demons at all. This was because according to the slow enlightenment speed of demons, it was estimated that all human beings on earth would have already embarked on the road of cultivation when there were enough of them. That way, they would be able to completely crush them with just numbers alone.

Who would have thought there were so many demons appearing as soon as those of the later generations were born?

Initially, no one knew what had happened. When people’s encounters with demons had increased later on, humans also began to find some information about the Myriad Demon Valley. They knew that in the Myriad Demon Valley, there were two divine trees. One was the Divine Tree of Transformation, and the other was the Divine Tree of Enlightenment.

In the eyes of the demons that had currently emerged, the Divine Tree of Transformation had probably already fallen into the hands of the Myriad Demon Valley. Otherwise, it would not have been so easy for these demons to take shape.

If they wanted to take shape naturally, it could only be possible after going through all kinds of tribulations and narrowly escaping death.

After all, this was equivalent to skipping millions of years of evolution and directly reaching this step.

Only with the help from the effect of the Transformation Fruit could they succeed in taking shape smoothly.

The other tree was even more important than the Divine Tree of Transformation. The fruit on the Divine Tree of Enlightenment could allow the wild demons to gain intelligence as quickly as possible, making them as intelligent as ordinary humans if not even more.

Whether or not they could transform was not the most important issue for demons, but not being able to open up any intelligence was a flaw at the beginning of their development stage that they had no way of fixing.

The only possible fix was to get the Divine Tree of Enlightenment.

Therefore, their movements this time were most likely related to the importance of the development of the demon race in the future. Hence, all the demon experts who had revealed themselves before had gathered in one spot.

With such a line-up, the demon experts were confident that they could win even if all the hidden Divine Treasure Realm experts among humans appeared.

Who would have thought that their killings would force a completely unreasonable existence like Lu Xuan to come out of hiding?!

Lu Xuan knew that his guess was perfectly accurate. He had not intervened during his previous life, the demons secretly took away the Divine Tree of Enlightenment even if they did not move in plain sight. This was why they were able to train an army of intelligent demons decades later that could compete with human beings.

As far as Lu Xuan knew, demons had even secretly learned and developed the science and technology of humans. Their intelligence was no lower than that of human beings.

It was fine if Lu Xuan did not know about it. Since he did, however, he would not let the demons take the Divine Tree of Enlightenment away.

The earth was too small to tolerate the existence of two intelligent races! One was enough!

Moreover, the Divine Tree of Enlightenment could not just be used by demons. It could also be used by humans, on which the effect would be even more remarkable. Ordinary people who swallowed one fruit could enhance their intelligence and turn into a genius.

If a genius were to eat one fruit, they could be transformed into a super genius!

Of course, there was no point in eating an excessive amount of fruit, but one could keep their brain running at a high speed in doing so. This was the cultivators’ equivalent to doing half the work but getting double the result.

In other words, Lu Xuan could nurture as many geniuses as he wanted in the future. The limit of qualifications would be increased.

As long as he swallowed the Enlightenment Fruit, even Lu Xuan could also maintain a very clear state. In that case, his cultivation efficiency could at least double.

Of course, such a good thing of course be taken away by the demons.

“Do you want to die, human?!”

The young man with a protruding mouth and ape-like chin looked at Lu Xuan with a stern and determined look in his eyes.

This was because he knew that they couldn’t afford to let Lu Xuan go. In other words, Lu Xuan must not be allowed to interfere with their actions.

This meant that human beings did not know the existence of the Divine Tree of Enlightenment and its effects. Otherwise, the big countries would rather drop nuclear bombs on this island if it meant preventing the demons to take the Divine Tree of Enlightenment away.

This was the only way for demons to close the gap and catch up with humans.

The battle between races was a fight to the death!

There was no room for mercy.

The information must never get out, or the Myriad Demon Valley may face the frantic encirclement and suppression of all mankind! historical

At the moment, the entire human race regarded them as a small problem that could not develop any bigger!

However, this may not necessarily be true in the future!

“You guys want to kill me?” Lu Xuan said with a sneer. “What makes you so confident you can do so?”
