Chapter 166 - 166 Undercurrent!
166 Undercurrent!
Blood Demon Mystic Realm, Southeast Region.
In the Blood Demon Hall, a red-haired woman in blood-colored armor frowned slightly. She looked at a trembling soldier below and said, “You said… Lucretia and Lucal have lost contact?”
“Yes, Hall Master! Just now… the headquarters lost contact with them!”
The Blood Demon soldier said in a panic.
“You may leave. Continue to try to contact them. If anything happens, report it in time.”
“Understood!”
The Blood Demon soldier hurriedly retreated as if he had been pardoned.
He was afraid that the Hall Master would kill him with a raise of his hand if he was dissatisfied.
Although the Hall Master was not such a person, who knew if she would go berserk after losing two generals in a row?
Fortunately, the Hall Master did not vent her anger on him. He was safe.
After the Blood Demon soldier retreated, Moira, who was wearing blood-colored armor, glanced at the seven Blood Demon Guards standing in the hall and said, “What do you think?”
“Hall Master! In my opinion, there are only two possibilities! Either they lost, or they surrendered!”
A burly One-Horned Blood Demon said in a low voice, “However, according to the intelligence, there aren’t many invaders at the border, so I think there’s no reason for them to be defeated so quickly. Therefore, they most likely surrendered!”
“Yes, that makes sense.”
When Moira heard this, she nodded slightly. “Forget about the others. But after all, Lucretia and Lucal are Monarchs. If they really encounter difficulties, it shouldn’t be difficult to send back information. However, we haven’t received their reply yet. It seems that they have most likely betrayed us.”
“Hmph, Lucretia is just a guest elder. It’s normal for her to betray us! On the other hand, regarding that Lucal, the Hall Master promoted him so much and raised him from a Blood Demon soldier to his current state. He actually dares to betray us! He’s simply courting death!”
Suddenly, a figure wearing a blood-colored mask snorted coldly, “Hall Master, please allow me to lead a Blood Demon Army to kill the invaders and traitors!”
“There’s no hurry.”
Hearing this, Moira shook her head slowly and said, “Our side has already attacked. Next, leave it to the others.”
“You mean… to let the people from the Blood Demon Prison and the Order of Tainted Blood take action?”
“That’s right. Our side has already lost a portion of our combat strength. Next, we’ll just stay here. We’re in the southeastern region. It won’t be so fast to send people over. It just so happens that an army was there previously.”
“If we send another army over now, I’m afraid the other two factions will take the opportunity to reduce our strength, so we should stay put. The invaders will be handed over to the Blood Demon Prison at the northwest border.”
Moira said, “As for Lucal, he’s just a lucky Bull Demon. But Lucretia has a Extraordinary bloodline in her body. It’s a pity to lose her. Alright, everyone, leave.”
“Understood!”
…
Blood Demon Mystic Realm, Northwest Territory.
A bald young man was furious when he heard his subordinate’s report.
“What? The Blood Demon Hall lost? Hmph! There’s definitely a problem!”
The bald youth’s expression darkened as he said fiercely, “Previously, there was news from the Blood Demon Camp that the other party is only a human close to the Monarch-level. As for the Blood Demon Hall, they sent out 100,000 Blood Demon Soldiers and two Monarch-tier experts! How can they lose? I don’t believe it!”
“There’s only one possibility! They did it on purpose!”
“They did this to stay out of this and watch our Blood Demon Prison become a joke!”
The bald youth said coldly.
“Lord Barker, that’s… unlikely, isn’t it?”
Beside the bald young man, a Blood Demon leader frowned and said, “Think about it. The Blood Demon Hall lost 100,000 Blood Demon Soldiers and two monarch-tier warriors. Did they do this just to make fun of us? Everyone will laugh at the Blood Demon Hall, right? They mobilized so many people, but they were actually wiped out. Isn’t this ridiculous?”
“Lord Barker, do you think there’s a possibility that the invaders are actually hiding their strength?! If that’s the case, it makes sense why the 100,000 Blood Demon Soldiers of the Blood Demon Hall were completely wiped out! If that’s the case, you have to be prepared in advance and not let them take advantage of the opportunity!”
“Bulls*it!”
When Barker heard this, he was furious. He raised his palm and transformed it into a huge blood-colored dragon claw that tore through the Blood Demon leader’s head.
The leader of the Blood Demons died with grievances!
“Hmph, you actually dare to doubt my deduction! Your death is not worth pitying! Hmph, you’re just a small leader, and you want to teach me a lesson like my brothers? You’re courting death!”
Barker touched his snow-white bald head and glanced at the bleeding corpse. He opened his mouth and swallowed it.
“Burp! The smell of the Blood Essence Mouse is really good.”
Barker smacked his lips and ordered, “Soldiers! Strengthen the defense! The invaders at the border are probably hiding their strength! Brothers, make arrangements!”
“Understood!”
A voice came from outside the military camp.
Barker leaned back in his chair and smiled brightly. “With me around, there are no accidents. A mere border invader wants to infiltrate the Blood Demon Prison? Dream on.”
“By the way, keep your eyes sharp! If the invader’s goal is not our side, let him in! Let him torture the others! Do you understand?”
“Understood!”
When Barker heard this, the smile on his face deepened. “Haha, Barker, you’re really too smart!”
“Hmph, this time, I must make my brothers look at me in a different light!”
“I want to prove myself! I have the ability to guard the prison!”
“My strength and intelligence are very high!”
…
Blood Demon Mystic Realm, Southwest Region.
Countless figures prostrated around an ancient altar.
Suddenly, a black-red light flashed on the altar, and a phantom slowly condensed.
Around the altar, countless crawling figures trembled excitedly.
“My children, Tainted Blood is proud of you!”
On the altar, an old voice came from the black-red phantom. “Go, enter the northwest… Kill to your heart’s content and offer your blood to the Evil God.”
“Blood!”
“Blood!”
“Blood!”
The prostrate figures were like walking corpses. They kept repeating the word “blood” and disappeared around the altar.
“Blood Shadow, you’re really free.”
Just as many figures disappeared, a hunched figure covered in black appeared. He looked at the phantom in the center of the altar and teased.
“Sigh, Dark Shadow, you don’t understand… This is the power of faith.”
Blood Shadow sighed and shook his head. “The blood of the Blood Demon Clan contains a huge amount of life force. With this blood, my strength can quickly increase.”
“Hmph, but at the same time, if your believers are destroyed, your power will also suffer a backlash. Aren’t you afraid?”
Dark Shadow sneered, clearly disagreeing with Blood Shadow’s opinion.
“My believers… won’t perish. Moreover, as long as they kill, I can constantly become stronger! This won’t change! Whether they live or die, it’s not what I care about. What I need is the life force in their blood.”
Blood Shadow said in a low voice, “However… the invader this time seems to be purifying the blood, which makes me encounter some trouble. Therefore, I need your help.”
“Payment.”
“Three Extraordinary Spirit Essences!”
“Haha! Deal!”
When Dark Shadow heard this, he was delighted and laughed. “Looks like you’ve encountered a lot of trouble this time? You’re actually willing to pay such a high price. This isn’t like you!”
“Cut the crap. I hope you can finish your business early and come back.”
Blood Shadow said in a low voice, “By the way, if possible, sneak into the Blood Demon Prison and release the prisoners. I want to develop them into my believers!”
“That’s a different price!”
Dark Shadow said with a smile.
“Two more pieces! Will that do?”
“Haha! That’s great! Don’t worry, leave this to me! I promise to get it done for you! But you’re neither human nor ghost now. I really don’t know what to say about you.”
“Hmph, get lost.”
Blood Shadow snorted and disappeared from the center of the altar.
However, Dark Shadow did not care. He looked at the five Extraordinary Spirit Essences at the edge of the altar and grinned before putting them away.
“Five Extraordinary Spirit Essences. With these, I can upgrade my Shadow Dagger to the Extraordinary grade!”
The shadow disappeared outside the altar as if it had never existed.
…
“Haha! Done!”
In the northwest border area, Jian Ba laughed and completed the energy absorption of the Extraordinary Spirit Essence.
Lin Bei looked at Jian Ba expectantly and asked, “How is it? Can you teach me the Dao of Devouring?”
“Of course you can! The current me is filled with strength and is not inferior to Seventh Sister! It’s enough for you to activate the Dao of Devouring now! Previously, I thought that I had sensed wrongly. Now that my strength has increased, I can feel a familiar power from you! It seems that Big Brother has passed on the power of the Star Swordsman to you!”
“Since he chose you! As his younger brother, I can’t hold him back! Keep this Dao of Devouring well!”
Jian Ba smiled and opened his hands. A magnificent Power of Devouring instantly appeared and finally condensed into a light sword that landed in Lin Bei’s hand.
“Absorb it and you can activate the Dao of Devouring.”
Jian Ba said, “But the process might be very painful. Bear with it! Don’t blame me for not reminding you!”
As he spoke, Jian Ba laughed evilly, as if he had thought of an interesting scene.
“…Uh, why don’t I absorb it later?”
Seeing this, Lin Bei felt a chill down his spine.
He had a bad feeling.
“That won’t do! If you don’t absorb it this time, it will be a month later next time.”
Jian Ba shook his head. He was determined to persuade Lin Bei.
When Lin Bei heard this, he was stunned.
Forget it, he should absorb it.
As for how painful the process was, he could not care less now.
In any case, they were all acquaintances now. He was not afraid of losing face.
At most, he would writhe on the ground in pain!
What else could he do?
In comparison, missing this opportunity would make him feel very uncomfortable.
Therefore, after thinking about it, Lin Bei gritted his teeth and prepared to absorb the light sword condensed from the Dao of Devouring.
So be it!
What was there to be afraid of!
