Becoming the Demon Lord: Taming the Demon Queen Begins

Back in his room, Timothy slid the Enchanting Goddess Rankings under his bed and sat down, taking a moment to catch his breath.

The rumors about Divine Sovereign Ink Bamboo had hit him hard. Here he was, finally awakened to the system, a protagonist straight out of central casting. And her? She was like someone playing a game with cheat codes on!

If he was supposed to be the hero, what did that make someone even stronger than the hero? Could she possibly be the author herself? Ridiculous!

Once he broke through to the Ascension Phase and ascended to the Celestial Realm, he was determined to see just how stunning this Divine Sovereign Ink Bamboo really was.

Facing the constant threat from the three Holy Emperors, boosting his strength had become his top priority.

Timothy calmed his mind and began to inventory his recent gains.

Aside from the lower-grade magical weapons, medicinal herbs, and spiritual plants he had scammed and stolen, the most precious were the Sacred Tri-Emperor Crest from the Valley of the Undead, which had unlocked two meridians of the Ancient Saintly Body, the Phoenix Blade from Holy Emperor Vorenus, and the secret technique Convergence of Ten Thousand Thunders from the Holy Emperor's legacy.

And then there were the mysterious "Eternal Source" and the Dragon's Roar Virility Pill...

"Wait a minute, what if I could combine these two items…" A sudden inspiration struck Timothy.

These treasures were already powerful, but there might still be room for improvement!

Without hesitation, he pulled out the Sacred Tri-Emperor Crest, which shimmered with a golden light.

Holding the Crest in his left hand and forming a claw with his right, Timothy summoned the fearsome thunder and lightning of the Holy Emperor Thunderflame's most powerful secret technique, the Convergence of Ten Thousand Thunders.

The power of the Sacred Tri-Emperor Crest was formidable, but it was still just a magical artifact that needed external forces to become even stronger.

So, if he could merge it with another power...

Timothy focused, slowly releasing the pure spiritual energy of the Ancient Saintly Body.

He infused this energy into both the Convergence of Ten Thousand Thunders Technique and the Sacred Tri-Emperor Crest.

At first, the two forces repelled each other, each unwilling to yield.

But the golden spiritual energy of the Ancient Saintly Body acted like a bridge, gradually linking them together.

As time passed, the lightning grew more violent, and the Sacred Tri-Emperor Crest trembled continuously.

During their struggle, a golden light flowed back and forth.

With a crack, a purple bolt of lightning from the Convergence of Ten Thousand Thunders Technique fiercely struck the Sacred Tri-Emperor Crest.

The sturdy crest was marked by a shallow scratch, but at the same time, the golden light flowed back into the lightning, calming the turbulent purple thunder.

Crack after crack, the lightning flashed, and a misty golden aura enveloped them.

Though the lightning continued to damage the Sacred Tri-Emperor Crest, it also eased the tension between them.

As the Crest bore over a hundred scars, the fury of the Convergence of Ten Thousand Thunders Technique finally subsided.

The bolts of lightning, no longer as violent as before, slithered like small snakes into the Sacred Tri-Emperor Crest.

They could no longer leave scars, but instead, followed the golden light, connecting the two forces together.

"It's time!"

Timothy's eyes sharpened as he seized the fleeting opportunity.

"Activate the second meridian of the Ancient Saintly Body!"

A bone-chilling cold rapidly enveloped the two objects, the icy and almost sinister coldness stimulating them both.

At the same time, the golden light surged, forming a clear pathway, piercing through them.

As the icy aura continued to contract, the distance between the Sacred Tri-Emperor Crest and the Convergence of Ten Thousand Thunders Technique rapidly closed.

At that moment, Timothy clasped his hands together, channeling all his strength without holding anything back.

Flames, golden light, and icy coldness—the countless spiritual energies acted as bridges, not only connecting but forcibly merging the two.

"Boom!"

A spectacular phenomenon erupted.

Flames and heat waves burst forth from Timothy, and the previously calmed lightning became violently tumultuous.

"Merge together," Timothy gritted his teeth and clenched his hands tightly.

"Boom!"

In an unparalleled explosion, the Convergence of Ten Thousand Thunders Technique was forcefully pressed into the Sacred Tri-Emperor Crest.

The massive spiritual energy roared continuously, creating shockwaves that assaulted Timothy's body and the entire house.

The house shook violently, clearly struggling to withstand such a massive impact.

But Timothy was beyond caring at this point.

"Suppress."

"Bang!"

"Suppress again."

"Bang!"

Suddenly, a golden light enveloped Timothy's entire body.

Even his eyes radiated a divine brilliance.

Amidst the majestic thunder, there seemed to be the sound of a dragon's chant.

The golden light that illuminated the entire house converged into Timothy's right hand.

This palm strike was mixed with endless mystery and tumultuous power!

"Boom!"

Like a landslide, the palm strike forced the Convergence of Ten Thousand Thunders Technique into the Sacred Tri-Emperor Crest!

The various colored lightning bolts, still trying to resist, were unable to break free.

Timothy then slowed his assault, continuously infusing gentle spiritual energy into the Sacred Tri-Emperor Crest.

With this mysterious energy flowing in, the lightning power, which was already merging with the Sacred Tri-Emperor Crest, began to calm further.

Although each bolt of lightning still carried a terrifying oppressive force, it no longer resisted.

The power of the lightning remained, but it was now bestowed upon the Sacred Tri-Emperor Crest, making their combined form even more powerful.

"I did it!"

Under the sunlight, the originally emerald-green Sacred Tri-Emperor Crest, now tinged with a hint of pale purple lightning, made its presence impossible to ignore.

This streak of lightning transformed the Crest's originally mild aura into something utterly formidable.

Timothy could clearly feel the overwhelming power contained within the Crest.

Now, combined with the Convergence of Ten Thousand Thunders Technique, the power of the Sacred Tri-Emperor Crest was incomparable to before!

The legacy treasures of the three Holy Emperors, combined with the strongest secret technique of one Holy Emperor.

Just thinking about it was enough to understand how terrifying it was.

"Harvesting?" Timothy blinked in surprise.

The first system function he'd awakened allowed him to gain rewards by directly impacting or damaging an enemy's spirit. But this 'Harvesting' feature...

[Ding! 'Harvesting' yields richer rewards with stronger targets. System note: Host can earn rewards by touching the hearts of goddesses.]

"So that's what it means!" A thrill of excitement shot through Timothy.

This feature could be even more convenient than the first!

Especially since the rewards from goddesses were undoubtedly the highest quality 'harvests'!

...

In Sylvia's royal chamber,

Seeing Timothy approaching with a subtle smile, Sylvia suddenly felt a wave of panic: "What... what are you planning to do?"

Though Timothy had been bold before, with hand-holding and kissing, this time it seemed more ominous.

The room was deserted, and Timothy had firmly shut the door behind him.

This was definitely not a good sign!

"Don't worry, my love, I just want to do something nice for you," Timothy said, slowly walking closer with a reassuring smile.

"Something nice... No, I absolutely can't do that kind of thing! And even though...," Sylvia stammered, her mind a whirl of confusion.

"It's definitely not the right time now!"

"Don't worry, I'm very skilled with my hands." However, Timothy was already close, extending his 'sinful' hand.

"No!" Sylvia blushed deeply, overwhelmed with embarrassment.

She wanted to resist, but then she felt Timothy's hand on her shoulder.

"Wait, my shoulder?" Sylvia paused, her mind clearing a bit.

But soon, she felt a wave of relief spreading from her shoulders.

High-end shoulder massages only required the simplest techniques.

Timothy would rather owe the system three skill points than not perfect his shoulder massage technique to the highest level.

What he got in return was arguably the best shoulder massage technique in the world!

He couldn't guarantee much, but in this world, no one could give a shoulder massage more comforting than Timothy!

Sometimes kneading, sometimes tapping, sometimes circling around the joints.

"Mmm~"

Any trace of annoyance Sylvia had felt dissolved completely, and she immersed herself in the fatigue-relieving technique.

It was as if all weariness was lifted, leaving only a sense of immense relief.

It felt like being in a clear stream, washing away all tiredness, bringing a pleasant mood and a desire to sleep.

At that moment.

[Ding! Successfully made Goddess Sylvia feel relaxed. Skill point +1]

"Just like that, +1!" Timothy rejoiced internally.

To think that a strong Mystic Core cultivator could barely provide one skill point.

And here he was, just a few squeezes of the shoulders, and he'd already earned one!

What a bargain!

Why not give his wife a full-body massage?

With that thought, Timothy's techniques became even more adept, methodically kneading with just the right amount of pressure.
