Volume 4: The Rise of the Dragon Chapter 420: Changes in the Situation
(I finally got two good naps on the weekend and I felt so refreshed when I woke up! Now, for me, there is no better way to make my body more comfortable than sleeping. Haha, my request is really easy to meet.)
Just as the heads of the various righteous factions in the world of cultivation were discussing matters in Shushan, a huge crisis was brewing in another distant time and space.
The blood-red and smoky gray sky is dry, and the red-black earth is full of cracks. Lava flows are faintly visible in the deep crack-like pits. From time to time, a tongue of fire comes from the depths of the cracks to lick the already dry
The earth and the dark sky occasionally drop yellow or red fire rain, and when it falls on the ground, it burns into pieces of flames, adding a sense of heat to the air.
There are no large creatures at all in the vast dry land. Only sporadic magic insects and some sparse black magic tongue grass gather into small bushes and grow on the ground without cracks around them. These tenacious magic plants have grown in the long
A unique structure has evolved in the harsh environment. It only needs to absorb enough energy and a little water content in the soil to grow. Occasionally, it will use the snake-head-like flowers to prey on some passing demon insects to replenish water and nutrients.
.There are often gusts of hot wind blowing in the sky. At this time, countless bone-gray dust will be blown up from the ground and sweep into the sky, becoming a unique scene here.
This is the Demonic Abyss. Only demons can survive in such a harsh and barren environment. And this space is one of the most barren levels in the Demonic Abyss, the Burning Wasteland. Legend has it that this was originally one of the largest battlefields in the Demonic World.
It's just that 30,000 years ago, the Lord of the Twisted Void, the Great Demon Archimonde, led his army, the Burning Legion, to fight here with the tens of millions of angel legions sent by heaven to conquer it. The powerful force that destroyed the world not only caused
The collapse of the entire level environment also breaks the rule system that maintains the level, ultimately leading to the destruction of the entire environment.
The forests and swamps that were originally relatively fertile and could provide a large amount of demon meat were burned and evaporated. The plains were broken up, and the mountains were destroyed and turned into today's deserts and wastelands. Moreover, tens of millions of demons and angels died in this battle along with their corpses.
They were all blown into powder in the big explosion after the plane collapsed. Most demons who know this period of history believe that the dust that is often blown into the sky by the strong wind in the Burning Wasteland is the ashes of the demon and angel armies back then. Because the Burning Wasteland was originally
It is also relatively rich. There has never been sand of this color, and it was only after the war that this dust began to appear.
It's just that this statement will always be scorned by demons who think they have knowledge. Everyone knows that the demon's body is full of magic energy. Even if it really dies and leaves a corpse, if it is not kept properly for more than a week, the magic energy in the corpse will be destroyed.
Spontaneous combustion occurs due to the exchange of magical energy with the outside world, and the demon's corpse is burned to the ground without leaving any ashes. Therefore, most demons have no corpses. There are only those who have demonic nature but have magical creatures that are not demons.
Because the strength is too low, the residual magic energy in the body is not enough to ignite the corpse, and the corpse will be left behind after death. This is also the reason why monsters become food and materials for demons.
In addition, only those high-level demon lords and demon gods can condense immortal divinity into their bodies. Even after death, the divinity will keep their corpses alive and will not deteriorate or spontaneously ignite. And the power of such powerful demons
Even if the corpse loses its divinity, it will maintain its material state because of the powerful power left behind. It can be burned and leave behind "ashes"-like remains. However, it should not be called ashes but should be called demon ashes, which are the condensed essence of the demon's body.
Even if the entire demon corpse is burned, only one ten thousandth of its original weight will be left, which is a very precious alchemical material.
And now there are more than 10,000 tons of ashes-like dust filling the sky in the burning wasteland? If calculated according to the proportion, at least one million high-level demon lords or demon gods would have died to produce so many "demonic ashes". Not to mention that the battle at that time did not have such a scale.
Even if the senior demon lords and demon gods really have the ashes of this level, haven't they all been moved away by the greedy demons? Demons are not people who respect the old and love the young. They would think that robbing the ashes of their predecessors is a disgrace.
Although moral behavior demons worship the strong, they are creatures with chaotic evil attributes. Their nature is extremely selfish and greedy, and they are violent and arrogant. If the dust is really good for them, they will rob it even if they risk their lives.
But even after tens of thousands of years, the dust in the burning wasteland has still not been snatched away. This only shows one reason, that is, these dust are not "demonic ashes" at all, so the demons did not collect these useless dust. In fact, when they discovered it
The appearance of dust suspected to be "Demon Ashes" in the Burning Wasteland after the war indeed caused a sensation, attracting a large group of demons to fight for each other and causing a lot of killings. However, the sensation automatically subsided within a short period of time.
Because after those demons who took away a lot of dust went back to experiment, they found that these dusts were not "Demon Ashes" at all. They could not be enchanted, could not be used as alchemical additives, and their properties after being combined with each other were extremely fragile, even if they were fixed together with mud and water.
It doesn't have any defensive effect. It will break with just one blow, so it's basically useless.
If we insist on talking about what their characteristics are, it is strong resistance to magic and wear resistance. I don’t know why these strange dusts have very strange properties. No magic energy can penetrate them or circulate inside them. Moreover, these dust particles
It is very hard. Although it is extremely small and has a diameter of less than one micron, it is harder than diamond and will not melt even if it is calcined with the magic fire of the abyss.
From this point of view, these dusts can be regarded as potential anti-magic materials and defensive materials. However, because of their inability to melt and fuse into any material, they cannot be used to cast equipment and buildings.
It is embedded somewhere as a barrier to protect vital parts, but because the particles of this dust are too small to be used as a director, it is probably the smallest vital part unless it is used for insects. After all, the vital parts of the devil are only one micron in size.
It is precisely because of this that although these dusts do have some unknown and special origins, they are really unusable, so not many demons will risk being laughed at as idiots and fools to collect these dusts. Therefore, despite tens of thousands of
The bone-gray dust of this former battleground between gods and demons is still floating in the sky.
Within a hundred miles of the vast expanse of the Burning Wasteland, there is only one reddish-brown hill sitting alone on the ground. The top of this hill, which is less than a hundred meters high, strangely extends to both sides to form a platform that is not naturally formed at first glance. And on the periphery of the platform
With this transparent light film, the platform looks empty from the outside. If you want to enter the platform, you will fall into an illusion and eventually have your memory modified and leave in ignorance.
A virtual world of illusion magic! It can simulate any environment and have a dual effect on the body and spirit of the subject. It is famous for its weirdness and mystery and is often used as a protection for some important but private secrets.
At this time, a more private discussion was taking place on the platform with three seats.
"~~~~~~So this is the latest situation in the human world in the recent period. Our demonic power in the human world has suffered a heavy blow and has shrunk to a very dangerous level. If those hateful cultivators launch another attack of the same scale, I will
I have to predict pessimistically that our power in the human world may be completely eradicated." A black-gold throne with a dragon head and a demon body, a dragon-headed man with a calm momentum, said in a heavy tone. It was the original meeting in the subspace of the main material plane of the human world.
The dragon-headed man Tias.
However, judging from the tired state on its face now, it seems that the cultivators' large-scale siege against demonic forces during this period did involve a lot of energy and trouble for it. And judging from the final result, it is obvious that it failed.
Opposite him was a throne carved from rubies. A black-haired man covered in a scarlet armor with only his head exposed lazily put his left hand on his forehead and his right hand on a red giant sword stuck on the ground. There was a wisp of hair on the corner of his mouth.
With an evil smile, he asked with interest: "Oh? Even you have this look. Where has the 'Black Gold Dragon King' Tias, who is always strategizing, calm and confident, gone? Could it be that the one who has been in decline for a long time is the only one left?
Does the plane where some indigenous humans rely on the legacy left by their ancestors to show off their power scare you so much?"
"Blood red? Yang! You should know better than me how powerful the potential of the human world is, because you are the one who escaped from there!" Tias suddenly raised his head and glared at the black-haired blood-armor with a pair of dragon eyes shining with golden light.
Man. "Now that things have happened, I admit that I did underestimate the power of the human world. I didn't follow your advice and didn't take too much precaution against those immortals, which led to my current end. But you are also the leader of the demon army under the Demon King Julien Wei'an."
What would you gain if your plan to lead us completely failed?"
"Don't mention that name! My current title is 'Bloody Earl' or you can also call my demon name Mostema? Blood Demon! Yang Xuehong was killed by those shameless bull noses as early as three thousand years ago because of his obsession with evil.
Dead!" A flash of blood suddenly flashed in the black-haired man's eyes. Without moving his right hand, the huge red sword appeared inexplicably in front of Tias. The tip of the sword was pointed directly at its throat.
"What? You are so embarrassed that you are angry because of the taboo? Xuehong? Yang, it seems that you are really worried about escaping from the human world. Why don't you do your best for our demon clan? Wait until the demon clan conquers the human earl. What does it mean to give up?
It is not easy for you to build a country and become the leader of a big sect in the world." Faced with the black-haired man's threat, Tias was not afraid but looked directly at the black-haired man and said in an enthusiastic tone.
"I've said that I'm a demon now and no longer a human being, and I don't want to have anything to do with that plane. I've long said that cultivators have a very special view of life and death. They are usually afraid of death, so they rarely do things that are harmful to life.
Threats; but they have a unique understanding of life and death and will do things that you think are sending death, but to them are very meaningful things that can gain merit and achievement! Although the gods will not do it because they take into account the heavenly calamity.
They can take action at will, but at critical moments, especially when they can accumulate great merits after taking action, they will take action without hesitation! If you don’t listen to my advice, you must die and don’t pull me! If you continue to nag me, I will kill you with one sword.
I will kill you and then collect your soul and divine fire!"
"What kind of merits and achievements do we demons have never seen such things before, and we don't believe that these things will have any effect on those cultivators. You actually want us to be afraid of those who will die for such illusory things.
Is there anything more ridiculous than this? You let me down so much. I didn’t expect that your courage would be so much less courageous than before. The man who fought with one man and one sword from the Eastern Demon Realm to the Western Demon Realm was beheaded even when he was seriously injured.
Thirty thousand demons and fifty-three demon lords. Three demigod demons beat a demon into an eternal sleep. Finally, His Majesty Julie Wei'an was alerted and took action in person. Only then was he captured after suffering internal injuries. He was known as the 'Demon Slayer'.
How come a man turned into a turtle after becoming the commander of the demons?" Tias stood up and said loudly without fear of the red giant sword at his throat.
"I said not to mention my past things. After I became a demon, I have already cut off one or two of the past. Now I am only the commander of the demon army of His Majesty Mostima? Blood Red Julien. If you continue
Don’t blame me for being rude if you provoke me!”
"You coward! Can you still hold the sword? Do you still dare to kill people?" "You will know if you dare to try it yourself and see the sword!"
"Okay, what time is it now? If you are still thinking about fighting here, calm down!" Just when the two were getting angry and about to fight, a cold female voice sounded, followed by two snow-white cold words.
The black-haired man Yang Xuehong and Tias didn't know whether they couldn't dodge the ice ray or didn't want to dodge at all. Anyway, they were hit by the cold air ray, and a layer of ice suddenly appeared all over their bodies. However, the person who did it didn't mean to hurt them, but wanted to
With the help of the power of ice to calm down their heated minds, the layer of frost was only one inch thick and dissolved on its own after ten seconds.
The ice receded, and the black-haired man and Tias also retracted their movements and their eyes regained their composure. It seemed that the effect of this ice ray was good.
"Have you calmed down? If you have calmed down, then have something to say. Everyone is doing things for the demon kings. Now that the human plan has encountered such a big setback, it is even more important to cooperate sincerely. If the plan really fails completely, everyone will
There are no benefits." The speaker is the owner of the third throne, a tall woman wearing a blue and white robe, with white hair and blue eyes and a cold face. There are three energy balls burning with ice flames suspended behind her head.
Huge amounts of magic shrouded her, and she turned into a powerful person who was at the peak of the demigod level. It was she who had just shot two ice rays to calm down the two who were about to fight.
Both the black-haired man Yang Xuehong and the demon dragon Tias seemed to be very scrupulous about her and at the same time had a hint of respect for her, so they also changed their attitudes.
"Your Highness Inisha, with your wisdom, I believe you can also see our difficulties today. The demon army in the world must add more support! Not only the support of the demon army, but also the real strong people and high-level demon lords are needed
, demigods, and even the support of demon gods! Otherwise, those immortals can destroy our power like nothing." Tias bowed slightly to the woman in blue and said sincerely.
"Sister Inisha, although you have been practicing in the 'Ice Hell' all year round and have become an ascetic dedicated to the Satanic Demon God, after all, you are Isula's sister and I have to give you some respect. But it has to be decided by your majesties earlier.
I expressed my opposition when we invaded the human world. The history of the human world is too long. Although there are no strong people on the surface, there are hidden dragons and crouching tigers secretly. Maybe there are some powerful people sleeping somewhere. If these possible strong people are lured out, it will be terrible.
This is going to be very bad." The black-haired man Yang Xuehong said with a wry smile to the woman in blue Inisha.
"In comparison, I think the plan to attack the Lingkong Immortal Realm has a higher success rate. Although the Lingkong Immortal Realm has a stronger average strength, it has a short history and its strength is obvious. The chance of unexpected situations is very small. So I still think that
We should abandon the plan to attack the human world and go all out to conquer the spiritual world. This is in the best interest of the demon world!" Finally, he said equally sincerely.
Looking at the two guys with serious faces, Inisa suddenly felt a headache.
