I became a god by treasure hunting after arriving 500 years early

"Wow!"

The sound was eerie and seductive, piercing the mind with a resonant buzz.

Even the Greedy Demon God, with its level of resistance, couldn't emerge completely unscathed, as the sharp, high-pitched sound felt like steel needles.

Lu Yuan smirked inwardly. Soundwaves are essentially a form of airflow, and with the reconnaissance of the [Hurricane] ability, he had long pinpointed the location of this soundwave [Demon]—this fellow was incredibly cunning, shifting position with each deployment of soundwaves.

But this scene was fully exposed under Lu Yuan's perception. With a gentle stomp, a vine drilled into the ground and burst out hundreds of meters away!

The soundwave [Demon] reacted swiftly, leaping high into the air, and let out a powerful "ha" towards the ground!

The strength of this soundwave was like a nuclear explosion, causing the ground to crack, and the vine to tilt erratically.

But suddenly, a flower bud on the vine exploded, unexpectedly blooming with a fierce red light!

The Eternal Spark is merely a middle-level combat ability within the Divine Skill.

But in Lu Yuan's hands, it was wielded to brilliance, the intensity of the ability subtly surpassing the limits of Divine Skill, reaching another level. The light intertwined a net, enveloping the soundwave [Demon].

In an instant, the soundwave [Demon] was also bound by the red light, losing its sound.

The "rustling" vines retracted, the red light fierce, like steel wires, making it impossible for the opponent to break free.

The soundwave [Demon] looked like an oversized fly, not aligning with Lu Yuan's aesthetic sense.

Seemingly aware of its defeat, it ceased to struggle, its compound eyes glancing at Lu Yuan, the abdomen emitting a sharp sound: [Your Excellency won fair and square…[Blood Demon], cease useless resistance.]

The other captive blood-like creature also halted its activity.

Old Lu did not make it difficult for his future subordinate, merely using the Eternal Spark for sealing.

Finally, only the mist-diffusing, secretly cursing mist [Demon] remained.

This guy hid well, seeing the two companions captured, it concealed its tracks even more.

After casting a curse, it made no further moves.

Theoretically, such an opponent is the most troublesome.

Lu Yuan smiled lightly, the countless air currents stirred by the recent battle had already informed him of the approximate location of the mist [Demon].

However, he wanted to resolve this battle more beautifully.

He softly chanted, "Grow!"

A piece of emerald green leaf instantly grew from his finger.

He first used the Eternal Spark to iron the leaf, and instantly, complex and beautiful lines emerged on the leaf.

Then he scraped off some clay-like substance from the [Blood Demon]'s body: "Borrowing your [Blood Manipulation] ability."

The [Blood Demon], thoroughly suppressed, didn't bother to resist, lying there like a salted fish.

This curse ability, though obscure and powerful, also had inherent innate flaws, namely that the causal relationship between both parties was difficult to eliminate.

The "causal relationship" involves deeper mind mechanisms such as divination, foreknowledge, and Qi Fortune.

Simply put, the party with low luck wishing to curse those with high luck needs to pay an extra price.

While the party with high luck cursing those with low luck, their own luck would be diminished.

Therefore, while the curse ability is quite renowned, it's rarely seen for civilizations to use it as a means to prosper.

"Your curse ability is indeed impressive, if you fled to the end of the world, I'd naturally have a hard time finding you."

"But if you only hide in the mist, at such close range, it's too easy to find. The causal relationship brought by the curse is akin to a thin thread in high-dimensional space, connecting one another."

"Snap!" Lu Yuan touched the blood [Demon] substance to the green leaf.

Instantly, the green leaf emitted a soft "buzz" and turned blood red.

That blood-boiling [Blood Manipulation] spread in an unknown direction.

"Agh!" The sound of a human body falling to the ground came from somewhere.

The mist rapidly thinned, the vague curses completely dissipating.

"Whoosh!" A vine extended over, binding the mist [Demon] as well.

This guy appeared faceless, without features, conceding decisively with a few struggles under the light of the Eternal Spark.

All three [Demons] were captured alive!

This battle, despite seeming complex, actually took less than a minute, akin to a lightning-fast miracle.

The turtle people observing outside the mist were utterly stunned, feeling that Lu Yuan vanquished the three [Demon]-level combat forces as effortlessly as cutting through melons and vegetables.

What's more, Lu Yuan only used an "Eternal Spark" to settle it, without employing any other Extraordinary Abilities!

They were happy yet also deeply frightened.

One turtle man murmured, "What kind of Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures is that vine, Immortal-level material? How does it capture each one so surely?"

"No, it has nothing to do with the vine, just a function of the Eternal Spark. As long as it's bound, it can directly suppress a [Demon], implying their combat strength may differ by more than two levels!"

And the creation methods of the Master Craftsman are indeed miraculous, using a simple item made from a vine leaf to find the causal relationship, identifying the cursor.

This requires exceptionally high knowledge and extensive experience.

"Even if these three [Demons] had coordination among themselves, in the face of such a magnitude-level disparity, they were still unable to measure up."

Number 3 turtle man, Gui Wu, couldn't help but feel his heart surge: "How does everyone feel now about the new Demon Sect leader?"

Immediately, a turtle man responded, "From a combat strength perspective, it's indeed the foremost presence in the Demon Sect, stronger than most of the Innate Myths!"

"In craftsmanship insight, one can peek at the whole from the spot…"
