Chapter 1611 1606: Could You Be the Human King?
Let's not discuss Bic's origins for now.At present, Su Chen broke free of the 'Curse Power's' restraint in just a short hour, leaving Bic completely stunned.
If not for the fact that he was now demonized and couldn't use magic power.
He would most likely have turned away and left already.
A High Rank Saint who no longer fears curse power is probably not someone he can provoke.
It's precisely this self-awareness that has allowed him to live for so long.
Mages naturally have a considerable lifespan, but if they cannot become more powerful, their longevity is ultimately limited!
Take Bic for example—he's actually already eighty years old, but the mage techniques have kept his appearance as youthful as a twenty-year-old.
But he knows if he can't make any breakthroughs, in thirty years at most, he will probably just become a handful of dust.
A High Rank Wizard typically has a lifespan of around a hundred and fifty years.
Some slightly stronger wizards can live even longer.
Unless they die unexpectedly, a hundred and fifty years is almost the baseline for all High Rank Wizards.
But Bic is now eighty, with only about thirty good years left.
Why is this?
First, Bic wants to maintain his youthful appearance, which is one of the secret techniques of wizards, a magical art that ordinary mages hardly come into contact with.
Therefore, practicing such secret techniques requires paying a great price.
And Bic exceeds a common mage—he not only possesses the secret technique for eternal youth, but also owns the demonization secret technique, which is a powerful secret technique belonging to Witch Demon.
Once executed, it crazily burns life.
Yet Bic seems not the slightest bit anxious?
Does the remaining thirty years of lifespan really suffice for him to squander?
"How did you break the curse power? Could it be that you're a Human King?!" Bic considered a possibility.
But he quickly realized it wasn't likely.
With the noble and honorable status of a Human King, how could they possibly allow themselves to be subjected to such humiliation?
Also, he's not a naive young man.
Bic almost accurately guessed Su Chen's true age; it's unlikely to exceed thirty, perhaps even under twenty-five!
To become a Human King at this age...
Even someone as knowledgeable as Bic finds it hard to believe.
After all, the might of a Human King is far beyond what a Saint can compare.
With special secret techniques, one can become a Saint in a short time, but it can never create a Human King.
If Su Chen were a Human King, Bic cannot imagine how powerful Su Chen or his backing force might be.
But what Bic doesn't know is, Su Chen might not be a Human King, but his combat power can make ordinary Human Kings shy away.
That terrifying destructive force would injure not only Human Kings but legendary powerhouses beyond Human Kings alike!
"Don't you have any clue whether I'm a Human King?" Su Chen said playfully to Bic.
Bic's heart trembled; because of Su Chen's words, the unrealistic thought in his mind began to stir again, could it be...
Su Chen continued: "If I were truly a Human King, do you think you'd still be alive now?"
Upon hearing this, Bic's trembling heart finally calmed down. Well, as long as he's not a Human King, he still has a chance.
It's not that Bic lacks confidence; it's that a Human King is overwhelmingly powerful.
Among mages, a 'Witch King' is equivalent to a Human King Realm existence.
But sincerely, if it's a battle, perhaps a 'Witch King' might even surpass a regular Human King, since Human King is merely a realm, and Witch King is merely a title.
But the Witch King attained by a mage has mysterious and unparalleled strength.
Among the abilities Bic inherited from the Witch Demon Secret Technique is demonization, but it merely grants a High Rank Mage the ability to demonize.
Suppose that a Witch King can also demonize; how much powerful force would they acquire?
It's terrifying just to think about it.
"Even if I'm not a Human King, so what? Do you think you can escape because I'm not a Human King?" Su Chen's eyes slightly narrowed, cold gleam flashing.
Bic gave him a terribly bad feeling; the curse's power robbed him of his ability to control everything.
If not for the mysterious energy emitted by Black Stone breaking through the curse power blockade, Su Chen would have been a blind and deaf man.
Only two to three-tenths of full power remained.
Now he's completely certain, the Bic in front of him is indeed a mysterious wizard.
Just now, he already summoned Barney through the contract power.
The opponent is a Wizard possessing abilities unknown to Su Chen, and the best solution is to bring the Wizard Barney to face Bic.
Let Barney handle Bic.
"Even if I'm not your opponent, if I want to leave, you can't stop me." Bic had the thought of leaving for the first time.
Because staying longer is already meaningless; he can't do anything to Su Chen.
However, continuing the demonization ability doesn't come without cost.
Every time he undergoes demonization, it's burning his lifespan.
This is why he only has thirty years of lifespan left.
Demonization is a secret technique tailored for Witch Demon.
Speaking of Witch Demon Secret Technique, we must talk about the origins of a Witch Demon.
The predecessor of Witch Demons was actually some ancient dark mages.
They possessed great power but were constrained by their lifespan, yet they were unwilling to die.
After researching various tomes, they found some clues from witchcraft and became Witch Demons, gaining semi-eternal life!
Abilities such as 'demonization' are merely secret techniques developed after they evolved into Witch Demons.
These secret techniques require 'Essence Energy Life' to be performed.
For those who've completed the transformation into Witch Demons, it's no issue.
They've become semi-eternal beings possessing endless lifespans, not needing to mind the consumption of lifespan.
Thus, they can acquire stronger forces by life consumption.
Actually, not all Witch Demons are bloodthirsty, but it was just this group of non-bloodthirsty Witch Demons that developed numerous powerful secret techniques.
Interestingly, many ancient famous Great Mages fell into the ranks of Witch Demons not because they desired greater power.
But because they wanted to transform into Witch Demons to obtain longer lifespans, thereby taking advantage of the time to continue their research.
Is this reason bizarre or not?
Yet it's precisely these eccentrics who ironically researched more terrifying secret techniques, making the slaughter more brutal, perhaps something no one foresaw.
It was by inheriting the legacy of a Witch Demon that Bic achieved what he has today, although his cultivation is merely of Middle Rank Saint, he already possesses the power to confront a Peak Saint.
It's just he hasn't fully unlocked that Witch Demon Secret Treasure yet.
Otherwise, an ancient Witch Demon's power would be enough to contend with a Human King!
