Chapter 875 In Enemy Territory?

Upon arriving on Demon Island, Lothur immediately understood just how big the Demon Emperor was.

Demon Island was no small place. With an area larger than Linn Province, it had more than 3 million inhabitants, far more than the less than 2 million living beings in his province.

But in this place, everyone was controlled by the Demon Emperor's government instead of being divided into different groups like in Linn Province.

In Linn Province, there were several cities, towns, and agricultural areas where different groups lived under different rules and customs. But just as there were people who could be rivals, enemies, or friends, there were also beasts in the forest areas who followed no one's laws but their own.

But even though Demon Island had a larger population than Linn Province, all of its people were members of a single force and had the same goal.

To bring the Demon Emperor back to the world and to achieve supremacy in spiritual cultivation.

To this end, they were united under the same government. The entire island served as a gigantic demon headquarters, where the youngest and oldest lived and provided a base for their warriors who were active on the mainland.

Upon arriving in the area, Lothur realized all of this by using his One With Nature ability and noticed how organized and developed the enemy territory was.

Before the rise of the Demon Emperor in the past, this island was very different. The factions there were much more scattered and unaffiliated, worse than what existed in Linn Province before Lothur.

At that time, demons lived as primitive beings, and few of this race were as relevant as many of the human spiritual professionals in Concordia.

Many people weren't particularly strong in Concordia but were very influential because of their ability to create formations, pills, poisons, and so on. But in the distant past, Demon Island had no such thing, and only warrior-type demons flourished.

But with the rise of the Demon Emperor, everything had changed. The island had become a unified force, and many demons who would have been irrelevant in the past had a chance to develop into demonic spiritual professionals and help the island's purpose.

Because of all this, the demons of this generation were much more challenging than those of the past, as they were much more numerous in terms of specialists.

Lothur could easily see this by looking at the demonic forces in the area right now.

As much as the strongest demons were now in Concordia, hunting humans and fighting the war, there were more than 2.6 million demons in this area working for the future of the tribe.

Of these, the vast majority were demons of low purity, limited to the first two cultivation levels.

But there were more than 100,000 Transcendent demons on Demon Island, as well as 15,000 Saints and 200 Sages at that very moment.

Of those Sages, 10 were at level 25, which was impressive, as the entire continent had fewer than 20 Sages at that level before the war began. However, these were only the demons left behind to take care of Demon Island while the strongest fought in Concordia!

'It seems they did their job very well while the forces on the mainland ignored them.' Lothur thought as he got to know the enemy territory.

That was a big place, so he couldn't just massacre the whole island at once.

With his skills, he even had methods to throw the whole island into chaos, but his goal wasn't to kill the creatures on this island that way. His goal was to absorb EVF points so that he could reach a soul power similar to that of the Demon Emperor or even reach his 10th Soul Bone.

Lothur wanted his last Soul Bone to be Diamond-grade. However, under the current circumstances on the continent, there was no guarantee that he would be able to obtain such a thing.

The only Diamond-grade Soul Bones were those of high-level demon hunters. But even if Lothur could track them down, there was no guarantee he would be able to reach someone with the bone he needed.

So far, there had only been two people with bones compatible with his Spirit Body. But Lothur had been unconscious for months, and he didn't know the situation of these two Sages. At the same time, he had added a new bone to his being, and only one of those men could help him.

If this man had already died and demons had destroyed his bones, then there were no bones of this quality left for Lothur!

Aware that he might not get his Diamond-grade Soul Bone, Lothur wanted to find Platinum-grade bones that would be compatible with him so that he would have a reserve in case he didn't get what he wanted.

Even though he could destroy a large portion of the island's forces with his abilities, he wouldn't do it because the right way to achieve his goals had its limits.

Thinking about where to use his bloodline ability first, Lothur looked at a demon city where he could feel some powerful auras but also a large number of demons.

'There are about 200,000 demons in this place. Even though most of them have a constitution of less than 30 points, their number could give me a great result.'

With this in mind, Lothur ignored other places on Demon Island where there were groups of stronger demonic beings, thinking first of the EVF points he would consume.

'After I've taken care of this city, I'll go after the strongest demons on this island.' He decided, and in the blink of an eye, he crossed space toward the city, a few dozen kilometers from where he was standing.

Given his speed, Lothur arrived at his destination a few moments after better understanding the enemy territory, appearing over this city of 200,000 beings while smiling in satisfaction.

This city had solid defenses that would make an invasion impossible for ordinary Sages. But Lothur was a formations master with a soul of over 100,000 points!

There was no way these demonic formations would stand in his way!

When he moved, the enemy defenses stopped working but without alerting the local forces.

Then, by breaking through a hole in the enemy's defenses, he would enter the 'protected' area of that city, where he would unhesitatingly activate his bloodline ability right after turning those defenses into the enemy's worst nightmare.

Instead of protecting them, those barriers would prevent them from escaping the massacre that was about to take place!

"Demons, become part of my powers!" Lothur said as he formed a demonic giant of red smoke while spreading his ability throughout the city, making thousands of creatures there realize the desperate situation they were in.
