What Skills? You Can Learn Them All

As a level-ten dungeon, the Magic Qi Cave was even more difficult than Xuan Sheng had expected.

When he observed the map of the place through his eyes, he had a faint feeling that something was wrong.

This thing could not be called a cave at all. It ought to be called a maze!

The roads were intricate, the environment dark and gloomy, the monsters varied and diverse, and there were even all kinds of traps built into the map itself!!!

They had designated a dungeon like this as a mandatory-clear dungeon while also restricting the level and forbidding parties... It was even the first dungeon designed for an entire group...

If this could only count as an appetizer, then the challenges players faced in the future would probably become increasingly terrifying...

The only thing worth celebrating was probably that this dungeon had no time limit. As long as he kept his level down, he would have more room to struggle.

After carefully examining the various monsters and hidden routes in the cave, Xuan Sheng nodded slightly, calculating whether he needed to prepare some special items...

"Your little girlfriend and your friend have both left?"

Miss Mo Rui, who came and went every day without anyone knowing what she was busy with, walked out of the room and found only a dazed young man in the hall.

"Yes... I was about to leave too, but before I go, there's something I'd like to ask."

"Hmm?"

Mo Rui stopped and waited for him to ask his question.

"I mean, since I'm about to take on such an important responsibility, are there any special skills I can learn?"

Xuan Sheng was naturally referring to the [Demon God] class, which had yet to be completed through a class change.

According to Mo Rui, he seemed to be the first person to possess this class... In other words, without a predecessor, what was he supposed to do about the skills of this hidden class?

Who was he supposed to learn from?

"The Demon God's abilities..."

At this point, Mo Rui's eyes drifted away. She immediately realized that she looked far too guilty, so she could only force herself to calm down and turn back to meet Xuan Sheng's eyes.

"Shouldn't the Demon God's abilities be cultivated by the Demon God himself?"

"?"

Xuan Sheng slowly typed out a question mark. His worst suspicion had been confirmed.

"Does this Demon God not have any exclusive abilities or anything???"

"Of course not."

Mo Rui's expression turned solemn, and her tone became respectful.

"The approval and blessings bestowed by the Seven Demon Lords are themselves the most powerful abilities, aren't they?"

"What about besides those?"

All the other hidden classes had to work hard to save Gold Coins and learn skills from their instructors. But when it came to him, there were no skills for him to learn?

Could he only take great risks, enter the seals, and complete trials for different Demon Lords to obtain special abilities?

"We never expected a non-demon to obtain the approval of a Demon Lord..."

Mo Rui cast a resentful glance at the man before her and shook her head.

"Almost all the demons who entered the seals to undergo the trials were already beings whose combat power had reached its peak. The reason for becoming a Demon God was originally to receive the blessings of the various Demon Lords, gain the respect of all demons, and obtain a leader's position."

In other words, pursuing ordinary power was not the original purpose of becoming a Demon God. The basic, practical skills that could be used should have already been mastered by him.

But... a human who was still wet behind the ears and had not even reached level ten had actually obtained Belphegor's approval...

Mo Rui could not understand this point, and she also felt rather helpless.

Could this human's combat ability really be trusted? Yet the things she knew could only be taught to female demons. She could not teach him even if she wanted to...

"So that means I can only obtain the approval of the Seven Demon Lords, and nothing else?"

Judging from [Belphegor's Approval], the abilities bestowed by the Seven Demon Lords would certainly be extraordinarily powerful. It would not be an exaggeration to say that they broke the balance.

But what was the point of a player having only ultimate skills and passives? Shouldn't he at least have some small class-exclusive skills?

Although [Omniscience] and [Omnipotence] often let him suddenly use certain skills temporarily,

stable and frequently usable skills were, of course, more convenient. Constantly copying other people's skills was not a long-term solution.

"No. After becoming a candidate for Demon God, your talent and potential will be beyond the reach of every demon."

To put it another way, did that mean he would have an extremely high attribute-growth panel?

"Additionally, you will be able to learn all the skills available to demon classes, including the rare special classes with extremely high requirements."

In other words, he could learn all demon class skills, even the skills of hidden classes?

What a stroke of luck?!

Then, what was the price?

Facing Xuan Sheng's interested gaze, Mo Rui pondered slightly before finally gritting her teeth.

"Although I think the Demon God should hide your identity until your abilities are strong enough, then appear before the numerous demons, if you need it, I can invite powerful demons from other classes to come and teach you various skills."

Before Xuan Sheng had time to celebrate, Mo Rui presented her condition.

"However, you must obtain the approval of a second Demon Lord. Demons are a race that respects strength above all else. Your power is still immature. Although you have already obtained Belphegor's approval, other demons may regard it as mere luck, and you may not be able to command their respect."

Although no demon knew what Belphegor's trial involved, and no demon who had entered the seal of the Lord of Sloth had ever come out alive,

that did not stop certain demons from making careless remarks without knowing the facts.

Not every demon was as easy to get along with as she was. Some stubborn-minded demons only cared about strength. Given the Demon God's current level of power, there would definitely be many demons who were dissatisfied.

Moreover, the demons' internal unity was not necessarily unbreakable... There were certain individuals who were thinking...

"All right, I understand."

Knowing that he was not limited to obtaining only those few most powerful abilities, Xuan Sheng was satisfied.

"How about this? To improve my strength—in other words, to obtain the approval of more Demon Lords as soon as possible—you can first find some powerful demons whose thinking isn't so rigid, Boss..."

"Hmm..."

Mo Rui nodded. She had the same idea.

"In that case, I'll go cultivate first."

"I wish you every success, Demon God."

Thinking of a childhood friend, the succubus had already begun preparing to make contact. Whenever serious business came up, she completely forgot about her other tasks...

[Gray Dagger (+3): Rare (Green) Attack +40 (+12) Critical Hit Rate +4 (+1) Agility +4 Strength +2 Durability 16/60]

This convenient weapon, which had helped Xuan Sheng many times in the past, had already fallen to an extremely dangerous durability threshold.

The dagger could not be repaired, so this weapon's journey was destined to end here... However, the 30% weak-point damage increase from [Throat Cut] might be preserved on his next piece of equipment through the previously obtained [Attribute Converter]...

For now, however, he should use the Refined Longsword.

After equipping a new weapon and making a few preparations for the items he might need, the young man headed toward the dungeon teleportation point in Lone Star City...
