Monarch of Darkness

Chapter 24: Will of a Devil



Evan felt excitement in his heart. The seven globules of blood started to fuse with his blood. Although it was very painful at first but the black light coming from middle statue lessened his pain significantly.

How could not he get excited! He knew even if it was his grandpa in his place, he should have felt excited as well.

Bloodline represents talent and talent represents power. In this world, where gods and devils reign Supreme, if you were not talented,you can't progress far.

Although hard work sometime leads to success but how much competition a donkey can give to a horse,even if it try hard.

In his past life Evan,was born with a very strong bloodline, even purity of his grandfather was one step below Evan.

He was the only one in the younger generation of Hendrickson family with such purity of bloodline.

But fate played a cruel joke and his Hendrickson family got ambushed from every corner. Evan got away only with his devil soul.

For ordinary devils, body was not important,

as long as their soul existed, they could remake their body.

But for a devil with strong bloodline, it was a big loss.

They can remake a body but bloodline can't be acquired unless one had access to ancestoral

blood essence which was quite valuable for every strong power.

Initially Evan was worried whether he could again awaken his bloodline but he never thought he could acquire the blood essence of

founder of his Hendrickson clan.

"If someone in my previous generation could pass the test of Demon codex, our Hendrickson family would not be in it's current position", Evan sighed in his heart.

The process of fusing of blood completed after a long time. Evan felt a surge of excitement in his heart, when he felt the tyrannical power concealed in his bloodline.

When he was just thinking about leaving this place and cultivate outside to walk into meridian opening realm,a mysterious voice

sounded in his mind.

"Heaven can't suppess us, earth can't contain us, as long as Devil stand, mountains will lower their heads in submission.

One will to Pierce the heaven, nothing can stop us." Evan felt every drop of his blood seething in response. He looked at the middle statue and looked at the man who was emitting a heroic aura. He felt pride of a devil by looking at the statue as he guessed the identity of statue in middle.

This was the statue of first ancient devil ever existed in creation,who roamed the world while suppressing everyone in every direction.

Evan's resolve grew stronger while he was listenening to the voice.

"How can Heaven stop us or earth bind us,

Mountains have to lower their head, infront the will of us ",Evan mumbled.

"World will again see the rise of devils as I will make every power submit to us",Evan vowed in his heart.

You have already passed the test. Your resolve can't be questioned and you take pride in being a devil. So,I will bestow you ancient meridians after you step foot into 'Meridian opening realm'. Now go immerse yourself in cultivation pond to open your meridians."

Evan found himself infront of a medium sized pond. Pond was full pitch black in color.

The surface of pond was calm as Evan could not find even a single ripple on its surface.

Evan believed every word of ancient will as he

stepped into the stairs that lead to pond.

Evan felt his body was getting stronger as the black coloured water seeped into his body.

He started to guide the water of pond inside his body. The water had a nourishing effect on

body and full of darkness energy,which was very much suitable for devil cultivators.

Evan was already at the peak of sensing qi realm and he stepped foot into 'Opening Meridian realm.'

He operated his breathing technique and tried to inhale darkness energy as much as he can. He knew he had to open as much meridians as possible in his initial attempt.

Opening meridians in later stages were very much difficult.

Evan inhaled darkness energy in a rapid pace.

The water seeping into his body also filling his body with darkness energy in a rapid pace.

He pushed darkness energy inside his body into a meridian of his body. After some intial

resistance ,a 'snap' sound ringed inside the body of Evan. It was like a fetter broke which was imprisoning his body.

Evan didn't stop and pushed the darkness energy towards other meridians.

'Snap,...Snap,...Snap'

Constant unlocking sounds heard inside the body of Evan continuously.

It was already 40th meridian, after which Evan started to struggle in opening other meridians.
