Lin Suo was completely drained of his Divine Power, and the Shadow Demon King was dazed and extremely reluctant to admit defeat to him.
"Time Power, various Elemental Powers, Titan Divine Power... who exactly are you? You definitely aren’t the Red Demon... damn it, a sneaky fellow like you should sink into Endless Hell!!!"
Lin Suo glanced at his brother, choosing not to kill him.
With a snap of his fingers, he secretly deployed a large composite Witch Array that hadn’t been used before, and the nine reserve avatars burst out, their surging Legendary aura immediately silencing the Shadow Demon King.
There were too many people; it was not that it was cowardly.
"Seal it. To manage a Demon Lord’s land, we’ll need this guy’s memories."
"Wait... Red Demon, I am willing to help you. In the world of demons, the strong are revered. You’ve defeated me, and for just a million soul coins each year, I can help you establish new Shadow Ruins."
Lin Suo shook his head.
"I don’t like overly greedy fellows."
"What about nine hundred and eighty thousand?"
"No, nine hundred and fifty thousand... wait... you can’t do this to me, I am the Shadow Demon... No!!!"
The Thunder God Avatar decisively used the Thunderbolt Power to disperse it, leaving only a one-meter long diamond-shaped black crystal with a notch in it, which contained a gem-like dazzling liquid inside.
It wasn’t dead yet, but in this state, it was no longer a threat. Once the Divine Power was restored, it could just be sealed with Time Amber.
Lin Suo roughly figured out the limit of his combat power, able to more easily face a second-tier Legendary strongman.
But the consumption on himself was also substantial.
After the real battle, many of his theoretical tactics gradually took shape, and the use of Divine Power was far more significant than he had imagined.
Panacea! Wish Machine!
Wherever it’s needed, simply point there, it’s absolutely perfect for a versatile player like him.
Hexagonal warrior plus a comprehensive amplification, invincible!
And soon, he might face an opportunity for the Titan Divine Body to advance to Middle-Grade God.
At that time, his strength will see another significant improvement.
Looking forward to it.
"Earth God, Water God, you two as usual, start drilling. Wind God is responsible for the ventilation system, the rest remain vigilant."
To the north of Corpse Hill, in a place called Desolate Blood Plain, the Heart-eating Gentleman led his team, avoiding all stray demons, and quietly came here.
"Mr. Illidare, please make your move."
"No problem, the power of the Silent Domain is trustworthy. You all start, I’ll keep the Silent Domain active throughout to shield all noises."
Illidare the Silent, known as the Demon Hunter, his famous skill is this Demon-targeted Silent Domain.
It causes all Demon Power within the domain to completely fall into a silent state and completely isolates the inside and outside of the domain into two separate worlds.
The effect is versatile, and its suppression power against demons is naturally a nemesis.
This is also one of the reasons why the Gliando Family sought his help.
Other assistants brought along took out materials from their Space Rings, continuously using Evil Energy Flames to smelt, drawing strange symbols on the ground.
The symbols had nothing to do with spatial attributes, showing that the Heart-eating Gentleman’s talk of a retreat plan was entirely a hidden move, guarded against Lin Suo.
A ritual-like formation gradually took shape, with Illidare holding a domain of five hundred meters in diameter, quietly.
He also majored in Demon-affiliated witchcraft and had the bloodline of the Silent Devil in his body. In terms of control over the human heart, he was no less than the cunning old monster like the Heart-eating Gentleman.
Seeing that it was about to succeed, he spoke.
"Third Elder, perhaps you could consider fulfilling the promised Demon God Flesh a bit earlier?"
"Wait a bit longer, no need to rush."
Illidare took a few steps back.
"Then you can at least talk about your plan, right? We’ve come to the Abyss with you, just to set up a ritual? Not necessary."
"What exactly are we hunting... or are you trying to summon something by sacrificing?"
The Heart-eating Gentleman’s gentle face showed a hint of surprise.
"Mr. Illidare, what are you talking about? The Demon God Flesh is right here in my hand, complete this backup plan, and I’ll hand it to you personally, look."
The Heart-eating Gentleman took out a large piece of heart-shaped flesh from the Space Ring.
Looking at the aura and the terrifying power contained within, it indeed was the flesh of a Demon God, a Holy Spirit Level item!
Seeing the promised reward.
A fiery look flashed in Illidare’s eyes, his leg muscles gradually tensed.
Good, a few years ago, he used a piece of flesh imbued with Moonlight Power to break through the second tier of Legend, but the fruit mainly developed his Dark Night Elf bloodline.
The other aspect of his Silent Devil bloodline was somewhat unbalanced, especially since his Legendary Domain was formed solely using the innate ability of the Silent Devil into a uniquely structured domain.
He desperately нужed that item to boost and stabilize his newly promoted realm; only by obtaining this lump of flesh could his future path be smoother.
Otherwise, he couldn’t exactly say what might happen.
Touching the bulge at his lower abdomen, Illidare had a crescent moon-shaped meteorite completely embedded in his abdominal muscles since consuming that fruit.
His body was affected by some power, not allowing him to delay any further.
"Third Elder, throw me the reward."
"Just wait a bit longer, it will be soon."
"Give it to me! Right now!"
Although Illidare the Silent did not turn hostile, the intent was nearly the same, as the power of the Silent Domain rapidly contracted.
The other Demon Wizards, who were busy at work, suddenly froze in astonishment.
Somewhat at a loss, they put down their work and silently retreated.
This attitude rather gave Illidare the Silent a clear signal.
"It seems you have other plans."
The Heart-eating Gentleman’s lips curved upward, and his cane tapped on the ground.
The sound of a water droplet hitting the lake surface rang out, followed by a sudden spread of a strange, deep-purple domain veined with blood vessels, enveloping Illidare and his Silent Domain entirely.
"Unfortunately, you’ve discovered it."
The Heart-eating Gentleman leisurely discarded his cane, his body pulsing a few times before – boom!
The ground collapsed, leaving a nearly three-meter-deep pit.
The kindly old man had vanished without a trace, and a gigantic, veined face lunged at Illidare.
Visibly green sound waves roared out from Illidare’s gaping mouth, unexpectedly completely dispersing the veined face.
"It’s an intense attack, ohh—"
Suddenly swelling several times in size, his clothes splitting to reveal a body lined with rippling muscles, and the back muscles formed two large patches, resembling a devil’s grinning face.
No one saw how he appeared, but with that punch, the Heart-eating Gentleman sent Illidare flying, and delicately purple-blue veins stretched from the domain towards his flying figure.
"Legendary Forbidden Curse·Demon Heart Seal!"
Facing the swift combo, Illidare roared repeatedly.
A pair of ragged demon wings unfolded behind him, green Evil Energy Flames centered on him, furiously drawing in all the vitality of his surroundings.
To counter the Demon Heart Seal.
With a backhand swing, he held two Moon Blades, and with a wave, sent out dozens to hundreds of Evil Energy slashes!
"Old monster, I’m not a vegetarian either. I knew your ill intent from the start, hand over the thing!"
Legendary Forbidden Curse·Demon Transformation!
Silent Devil, a very rare creature from the Abyss, isn’t native to the Abyss, yet it easily adapted.
And Transformation Technique, a basic witchcraft that all Wizards know, mastering this school is like Druids mastering various creature transformations and shapes.
Illidare obviously put all his energy into the Demon Transformation Skill.
Suddenly bursting forth, the power surge far exceeded everyone’s expectations.
His form shot up to eight or nine meters, stopping only when considering agility and flexibility.
Green cube runes left many traces of Evil Energy on his chiseled, statue-like body, revealing a kind of sinister beauty.
His demon form revealed, his power doubled.
With a spread of his wings, dozens of green Hellfire meteors fell from the sky, covering everyone!
The Heart-eating Gentleman, seemingly panicking, used the Heart Eating Domain to defend against the barrage of Hellfire meteors, continuous explosions occurred, yet the domain’s range kept shrinking.
Illidare clearly noticed his intention.
The Witches’ Array for the Sacrifice Ceremony! His eyes lit up, and he rushed over.
A five-meter diameter Evil Energy Fireball in his hand kept compressing and condensing, the Evil Energy boiling!
As everyone watched, Illidare stopped five meters away from the ceremony, tauntingly said.
"Old thing, you don’t think I’m that stupid, do you?"
"This distance allows me to destroy the entire ceremony at any moment, hand over the Demon God Flesh, we’ll keep out of each other’s way, and you can continue your hunting operation."
"Calm down, Illidare."
The Heart-eating Gentleman once again produced that lump of Demon God Flesh, full of warning.
"You can have it, but move further from the ceremony."
"No, no, no, hand me the thing first, I assure I won’t make a move, and you wouldn’t want the materials you’ve painstakingly gathered to go to waste, right?"
"If I’m not mistaken, one of the ingredients should be Ancestor’s Blood, right? The Star Sea Bloodline was long ago wiped out by the Truth Council, and the main Ancestor’s Blood is all in the hands of Star Trace Saint Witch."
"Think about it, how long would it take for the Gliando Family to obtain another such piece in this circumstance... Would you still be willing to wait?"
The Heart-eating Gentleman laughed, clapping agreeably.
"You are right, so this is a fair trade, here you go."
Saying that, he threw the Demon God Flesh in the opposite direction, then immediately hurled a purple energy spear, attempting to destroy the precious, incomplete organ tissue.
Illidare’s eyes blazed with fire, and without hesitation, he chased after it.
If the Heart-eating Gentleman hadn’t made that move, he might not have believed him, since there was an intention to destroy, it must be real, and he did not want him to have it.
Huge demon wings stirred up a fierce wind, his green figure flashed like lightning, catching up in the blink of an eye, and snatched the incomplete organ tissue.
Using his back to hard block the purple energy spear.
With a sound, the spear tip penetrated his shoulder, but he got the item.
Turning to look, Illidare saw the Heart-eating Gentleman standing there calmly, still smiling at him.
