Versatile Mage: The ancestor of the blood race, the blood demon lord

"It's such a pity. You are such a strong warrior, you should join our army."

The Shadow Demon looked at the dead Surtur and still felt a little pity for this powerful demon king.

Obviously, you only need to let go of some of the things you have always followed to survive.

But why don’t you understand this?

It’s such a pity…

"Okay, the sacrificial ceremony can begin. This force will not let us down."

Surtur's body fell during the sacrificial ceremony, and his flesh and blood were quickly decomposed by the power of the ritual and turned into a pool of blood.

This pool of blood was completely integrated into the fortress they built.

As the ceremony officially began

The entire fortress formed a huge magic circle, and the blood of countless demons became the power to maintain the operation of the magic circle.

A dark force of the purest kind opened a crack deep within the fortress.

The crack was less than ten meters in size, but it indeed opened up the dimensional channel between the magic plane and the dark plane.

"Is that all?"

"That's right. We were able to come to the magic plane because a dark king took action and opened the plane channel."

"Surtur alone still doesn't have enough energy."

The shadow demon looked at the opened plane channel and felt a little regretful.

It is only a dozen meters in size, so it can only transport some slaves and general-level dark creatures.

Monarch-level dark creatures, emperor-level dark creatures, and legion-level dark creatures have no way of passing through this passage.

It is still necessary to add more wood to this bonfire. Only in this way can the plane channel be completely opened.

"It seems that the Void Dragon will be the most crucial key."

"But, can the current legion really be a match for the Void Dragon?"

The Shadow Demon couldn't figure out this problem. The gap between the small emperor and the medium emperor was too big.

This gap cannot be filled by numbers.

"Forget it. The ceremony has already progressed to this point and will not stop."

There are so many demon kings in the underground world. They can use those demon kings as bait and send them into the deepest part of the seal as bait.

By depleting the Void Dragon's combat power for them, who knows, maybe they can actually hurt the Void Dragon?
After the plane channel between the magic plane and the dark plane stabilized.

The second part of the ceremony began. Due to Surtur's complete death, the power contained in his body was converted into the purest dark energy.

Then, these dark energies entered the Abyss Legion and the bodies of all dark creatures.

An expansive force, a force that constantly elevates and changes breakthroughs.

The Shadow Demon could feel that his realm as a high-level Little Emperor was broken through and reached the peak level of Little Emperor in an instant.

The strength of the Abyss Demon King and Shadow Hunter has also risen to the level of high-level lesser emperors.

As for the Abyss Guardians, due to their race, they have no way to grow further.

But the dark forces strengthened their bodies, weapons, equipment, and armor.

With such a force, it is possible that they will gain a certain advantage in the next battle against the Void Dragon.

... "It worked... These guys are really crazy."

Joan of Arc has already figured out what this sacrificial ceremony is all about.

This ritual works for both her and Maria!

To put it simply, this ceremony is a kind of energy conversion.

The vitality of a peak little emperor was converted into dark energy equivalent to that of a peak little emperor.

The dark creatures in the dark plane can devour this power without limit.

That is to say, suppose there is a slave-level dark creature now, and the upper limit of its racial talent can reach the peak of the little emperor.

As long as the slave-level dark creature touches and devours this purest dark energy, he will directly become a peak little emperor.

It is a really cruel practice. I assume that the creatures in the dark plane all rely on this method to increase their strength.

Then... the strength of the dark creatures must be far beyond their imagination.

A careful inspection revealed that many demon kings had been killed around the fortress.

This power is enough for them all to improve!
"You are also the King's apostles. I hope that in the upcoming battle, you can also be one of us and fight with us."

The Lord of the Abyss thought carefully for a while and decided that he had no right to order Joan of Arc and Maria.

But... in the current situation, even if he didn't order the two of them, he still needed the strength of Joan of Arc and Maria.

Although the blood of these two people is not pure, they do have the power of the dark plane in their bodies.

As for the other people, the dragon was a dead thing, created using blood magic and undead magic, and had no way of absorbing this dark energy.

The monster's flesh and blood body is a creature from the magical plane and cannot withstand the erosion of dark energy, so there is no choice.

There are also two sisters... They are the Dark King's blood relatives and direct descendants.

The dark energy he currently possesses is not yet pure enough for these two people to use.

Therefore, the Lord of the Abyss only sent two portions of pure dark energy to Joan of Arc and Maria.

This power is enough for them to cross the threshold of emperor and reach the level of Asian emperor.

This is what he, the Lord of the Abyss, can do now.

As for how far these two people can grow in the future, it still depends on the Dark King behind them.

"..."

Joan of Arc looked at the dark energy that was sent to her. As long as she used up this dark energy, she could become an emperor!

As a price, she only needs to follow this dark army to challenge the Void Dragon in the future.

The strength of the shadow demon just now has reached the peak level of the little emperor after this ceremony.

The two Abyss Demon Kings also rose from mid-level Little Emperors to high-level Little Emperors.

And the most terrifying Shadow Hunters, they actually went directly from the initial stage of Little Emperor to the advanced stage of Little Emperor?
We already have one here, a peak little emperor and four high-level little emperors.

As for this Lord of the Abyss, his level has always been at the peak of the Little Emperor, but he looks so confident.

Even if he is not a middle-level emperor, he is not far from being one.

They couldn't let such a great opportunity slip away so easily. (End of this chapter)
