Becoming a god in a low-key way in the supernatural world

A massive amount of true energy transformed into raging flames, pouring entirely into the corpse of the evil demon king. After a dozen or so breaths, it exploded with a deafening roar.

Blood and flesh rained down from the sky.

Kotegawa, sword in hand, stared expressionlessly at the head of the demon king.

The demon king, still seemingly bewildered by his severed hoof, uttered in human language, "Why...why..."

Before it could finish speaking, its head was crushed to pieces by a giant foot that fell from the sky.

The longsword held by Kotegawa broke apart inch by inch, as if it had been weathered away.

It had just carried too much power.

Kotegawa glanced at the sword hilt, then mustered his inner energy once more, burning the demon king's head beneath his feet to ashes.

Several enormous orbs of light appeared on the sea of ​​his mind.

The difference in physique compared to before is like the difference between the sun and the earth!

He plopped down on the ground, slowly regaining his strength, but also becoming somewhat dazed.

What a huge ball!

Chapter Fifteen: It Didn't Die

After being shocked by the sight of the several large, bright orbs of light within his mind, Kotegawa immediately crushed them.

What is a treasure? Only things that are put to use are treasures; otherwise, they are just things.

The clear, golden, crimson, and white orbs of light shattered simultaneously, leaving behind only a fragment of the [Evil Demon King's Essence], half lightning and half flame.

[Achievement: 1201]

[Sword: 1311]

[Fist: 990]

[Talent: Blazing Inferno]

[Talent: Thousand Thunder]

[Talent: True Form of the Evil King]

Ultimate Skill: Thunder and Fire Hell

……

A tremendous change occurred in his mind. Kotekawa remained silent for a long time. How could a demon king have fed him so well! His [skills], [swords], and [fist] were all increasing by hundreds of times. He had truly become a giant overnight!

[Great Fire] and [Thousand Thunder], Kotegawa could guess what they were, they should be the pillar of fire spewed out by the Demon King and the lightning he summoned.

But what exactly is this "True Form of the Evil King"? And what is its relationship with the "True Eye of the Evil King"?

Could she possibly transform into Rikka?

He secretly cursed the name's overly childish tone, wondering if one day he would shout "The True Form of the Evil King" in public, attracting countless pitying glances from those who care about intellectually disabled children...

The meridians, which had been somewhat parched, were once again filled with pure true energy, like a surging river, flowing endlessly and emitting a thunderous roar.

Feeling an unprecedented sense of power, he couldn't help but rub his stomach. The first thing that came to his mind was worrying about whether his appetite had increased again.

Does he have to eat a whole cow in one meal? Are there that many cows in the world for him to eat?

Hopefully he's overthinking it...

Kotegawa stood up, brushed the sand off his backside, and while still within the [Impermanence] domain, he shouted in a low voice: [True Form of the Evil King]!

Instantly, thick streams of blood energy enveloped and bound him.

Kotegawa was stunned for a moment, then suddenly realized, "Good heavens! So that's the Demon King's giant form move! I hope I don't end up with a face full of tumors..."

He prayed silently in his heart, and the blood aura surrounding him quickly thinned and faded. He was stunned and looked puzzled. It didn't seem to have grown any bigger!

After the blood and qi completely dissipated, he subconsciously looked down... and it seemed to still be the same 186?

After a moment of stunned silence, he clenched his fist and suddenly punched the air in front of him. In an instant, a huge sonic boom rang out, as if a gust of wind had been stirred up. The sand and gravel in front of him flew around, making the already dim sky even darker.

"Huh? It seems like my strength has increased quite a bit... and my defense is even higher, but why hasn't it gotten bigger?"

He was puzzled, then a thought suddenly struck him, and a life-sized ice mirror materialized in front of him.

His reflection was shown in the mirror.

His physique hasn't changed much.

However, his body now had many more blood and fire patterns, and his face also had some, giving him an extra touch of awe-inspiring evil. When he slightly turned his head, the corner of his eye seemed to hold the most deadly attraction.

He was like the deity they had just seen outside, radiating a faint light, yet also possessing a sacred and ethereal quality.

It seems contradictory, yet it truly happened to Kotegawa and appeared right in front of him.

He was speechless for a moment, then raised his hand and touched his face.

Wow, it feels like the difference between before and after Glasses-kun spends money on in-game purchases!

Added a lot of bling-bling effects...

He looked at himself in the mirror, and after finally accepting his new look, he felt a strange sense of relief: "Although I didn't get bigger, it looks pretty good. I'll show it to Qingkong later..."

Finally, he turned his gaze to the new "ultimate" [Thunderfire Hell], but after thinking for a moment, he shook his head slightly and didn't try it out. Actually, he could probably guess what it was, but the reason he hadn't seen it before was probably the same as his: it was "forbidden" by the gods. He still couldn't use [Mist Transformation].

The Demon King's belongings have been mostly sorted out; they're even more abundant than expected, but...

Kotegawa tried to use [Misty], but without success.

"This god is stronger than I imagined." Even after absorbing the relics left by the Demon King, he could only vaguely sense an unbreakable barrier when trying to use [Mist Transformation], and that was just from the god casually touching it…

The road to godhood is still long...

He sighed slightly, not thinking about what to do next for the time being, as there were more important things to do now.

The realm of [Impermanence] dispersed, revealing the dark clouds overhead and the bright moonlight shining through the gaps.

A bright gaze, carrying an unusual air of authority, was cast upon them from the side.

Feeling the less oppressive gaze compared to before killing the Demon King, Kotekawa relaxed. It seemed that even gods were not unfathomable... He would eventually find out her true strength.

He cupped his hands and said, "My Lord, I have won."

The ordinary-looking mountain god clapped his hands lightly, his tone carrying a lack of emotional fluctuation in his praise: "What excellent methods! I am quite satisfied with what I have seen this time."

He pointed to the elixir and said, “According to the rules, it is yours, but before you take it, I have a few things to tell you.”

After months of arduous searching, enduring wind, snow, and hunger, and even risking his life, he finally obtained the elixir. Even with Kotekawa's temperament, he couldn't contain his excitement and blurted out, "Please tell me!"

The mountain god said, "After you take it, you will fall into a deep sleep for a period of time, which, according to human timekeeping, should be half a month."

The effects of the elixir are incredibly profound, and it only matures once every thousand years. Taking it and sleeping for half a month would be just right. He nodded, indicating that he understood.

The mountain god continued, "The medicinal herbs must be taken immediately after being picked, otherwise their effects will quickly wear off. You'd better find a safe place now."

Kotegawa was taken aback and subconsciously said, "My Lord, I am not searching for the elixir for my own consumption, but for my friend... Could you grant me a few days' grace? I will go and bring her here right away."

The mountain god was also a little surprised. His usually calm tone became more curious: "This is a spiritual medicine. It takes a thousand years to mature. After taking it, one can increase one's cultivation by five hundred years. It is a treasure that all living beings dream of. Are you really going to give it to someone else?"

"Add five hundred years of cultivation?" Kotegawa asked, his eyes wide. "Does it have the effect of bringing the dead back to life and turning bones to white?"

The mountain god looked at him, a hint of strangeness in his voice: "The elixirs I guard only increase one's power. If you want to find an elixir that can bring the dead back to life and restore bones, you need to seek out the god Habe."

Kotegawa was completely dumbfounded.

He worked so hard for so many days, and finally even killed the Demon King with gritted teeth, and all he got was a super-sized experience fruit.

The mountaintop fell silent for a moment.

Kotekawa suddenly came to his senses and hurriedly asked, "My lord, may I ask where the god Habe is? To be honest, I came here to find the spirit fruit in order to heal my friend's injuries!"

“So that’s how it is…” The mountain god nodded slightly, then thought for a moment and said, “The god Habe only appears once every three hundred years. If you want to find them, you will have to wait two hundred and ninety-seven years.”

"297 years? They just appeared three years ago?" Kotekawa Kami was completely speechless.

What are we waiting for?!

It would be better to wait until you become a god and then go find them yourself!

He was very upset and found it hard to accept the result.

After experiencing extreme emotional highs and lows, I felt a persistent, inexplicable sense of unease in my chest.

Seeing his pale face, the mountain god asked softly, "Has your friend already passed away? Perhaps I can help you preserve his soul for the time being."

Kotegawa instinctively said, "No, she only suffered a serious injury to her cheek, but she's alive and well."

"A wound on the cheek?" the mountain god murmured, even more surprised. "Then why go looking for a elixir that can bring the dead back to life and restore bones? Such a trivial matter doesn't need to bother Habeyah."

Kotegawa shook his head: "But with current human technology, it's simply impossible to cure her."

The mountain god gave an "oh," and after a moment's thought, said, "How about this? You are now a true king under my command, and I can heal your friend. However, in return, I need you to do something for me immediately... Are you willing?"

Kotegawa stared blankly at Him, his mood soaring to new heights, as if he had broken free of Earth, escaped the atmosphere, and left the solar system.

He cupped his hands in a gesture of respect and said, "I am willing!"

The mountain god waved her hand gently: "Go, bring your friends over, I will wait for you here."

Kotegawa felt a sense of relief within him, knowing that the restriction on [Mist Transformation] had been lifted. Overjoyed, he bowed again and turned to leave, but then, remembering something, hesitated slightly before turning back to look at Him. He cautiously asked, "My Lord, I've heard that the Demon King is the personal guard of the Demon Queen, and also a true king under your command. Then you…"

The mountain god replied directly: "The evil ghost king is indeed the personal guard of the ghost queen. A thousand years ago, it came to this place to compete for the spiritual medicine and became the true king under my command. However, it lost to another monster that time."

Kotegawa looked at Him with suspicion: "The conditions for becoming a true king are so easy? Anyone can do it regardless of their background?"

"Is it easy?" The mountain god asked rhetorically, as if she was a little unconvinced: "Only a king who has fought his way out of all living beings is qualified to become my true king! As for one's origins and background, they are not that important as long as one can accomplish my task."

Seeing that He seemed a little angry, Kotegawa dared not say anything more, after all, he still needed His help. He simply cupped his hands and said, "I hope that killing the Demon King will not cause you any trouble."

"I'm not in any trouble, but you are..." The mountain god's gaze was slightly amused: "The Evil Ghost King is the Ghost Queen's personal guard. Even if he is dead, it is only his true spirit that has returned to the Ghost Queen's side. He will not truly perish. Perhaps it will not be long before he returns to seek revenge on you."

"What? It's not dead?" Kotegawa was taken aback, but quickly calmed down, as if he had thought of something, and smiled: "That's wonderful!"

After realizing that the mountain god and the Ghost Queen were not related, he didn't delay any longer. He cupped his hands in greeting, and his figure transformed into wisps of cloud, heading out of the mountain range.

We need to bring walnuts over quickly!
