The uncomfortable Invisible Demon shivered as fear crept into its heart.
The fear did not come from being controlled by Lin Yuan. Rather, it was the fear of how nebulous and confusing the future was.
The Moon Empress’ decision to give the Invisible Demon to Lin Yuan was not made last minute.
Ever since the Mother of Bloodbath had failed to take care of Lin Yuan outside Indigo Azure City, the Moon Empress had decided to arrange for a powerful entity to safeguard Lin Yuan’s safety.
The Invisible Demon had not been captured by the Moon Empress recently.
When the Class 6 abyss dimensional rift had first opened in the Radiance Federation, it had not been announced, but people could still enter to explore the abyssal world.
The members of royalty had ventured into the Class 6 abyss dimensional rift during the time before the announcement.
The news of the Class 6 abyss dimensional rift was made public because the members of royalty had suppressed all the lifeforms that were Myth Breed and above in the vicinity of the Class 6 abyss dimensional rift.
Otherwise, when the masses from the Radiance Federation surged into the abyssal world, the appearance of one Class 11 abyss demon would result in numerous deaths.
The Moon Empress had captured the Invisible Demon during the time that the Class 6 abyss dimensional rift had been sealed off from the public, and she had kept it with her for some time.
When the Invisible Demon first entered the main world, it had been completely befuddled.
However, the Invisible Demon was intelligent and was at least two times smarter than the average person. Hence, it picked new things up quickly and soon gained a deep understanding of the main world. It now knew that feys from the main world relied on spirit qi to increase their power.
Spirit qi was sparse in the air, unlike source-type power, which was present in the bodies of every dimensional lifeform in the dimensional world. However, every dimensional lifeform contained a different amount of source-type power. The higher class of dimensional lifeform, the more source-type power it contained. When the source-type power in a dimensional lifeform reached a certain amount, it could change the body of the dimensional lifeform into that of an Apostle that could utilize faith power.
It was because the Invisible Demon knew how important and short in supply spirit qi was that it had been shellshocked when it entered the Spirit Lock spatial zone alongside Lin Yuan.
At that moment, the Invisible Demon knew that there was more to this young man that it had dedicated its soul and faith to than what met the eye.
This made the Invisible Demon think of the obstruction it had sensed when it transferred its faith power into Lin Yuan.
After it got over its shock, the Invisible Demon’s mind reeled when it heard Lin Yuan’s question.
The Invisible Demon felt extremely insecure, leaving its life in the hands of another.
The demons in the abyssal world were full of violence, desire, and deception.
A strong Apostle could conquer a large territory.
The demons that failed to become believers were just like toys to the Apostles that could be used casually.
According to rumors, the famous Apostle Luster Strand had grown a pair of white wings. Luster Strand’s faith power was so concentrated that it had transformed into a ‘source sacred body’.
The ‘source sacred body’ could transform an Apostle’s appearance into that of a human’s.
However, the Apostle with the source sacred body would still retain the strongest portion of its original body composition.
After gaining its source sacred body, Luster Strand had a pure and innocent appearance, but its actions were unbelievably cruel.
Luster Strand adored long and strong demons, and it would kill healthy demons for sport when it was happy or sad. Hence, the Invisible Demon knew full well that masters could treat the lives of their servants as dispensable. The Invisible Demon was afraid that one mood swing on Lin Yuan’s part or one misspoken word would spell the end of its life.
From the moment the Invisible Demon heard Lin Yuan’s question, it started to think of the best answer that would most likely be able to please Lin Yuan.
After it pleased Lin Yuan, its life of servitude would be easier.
Lin Yuan’s gentle and considerate way of evolving his feys had deeply touched the Invisible Demon.
Since it was born in the abyssal world, the Invisible Demon had always been submerged in carnage and had longed to feel someone’s care. However, this wish had yet to be granted.
“Master, you don’t need to converse with me. Your will is my will too. You can give me any orders you please.”
The Invisible Demon left Lin Yuan’s shadow and knelt down before him with its head lowered. Its tone was one of trepidation and flattery.
Lin Yuan raised an eyebrow as he did not understand why the Invisible Demon was speaking to him with such deep respect.
He felt that there was no need for the Invisible Demon to see itself as having such an inferior status.
Lin Yuan asked the Invisible Demon, “For you to have become a Class XI/Kalpa VIII dimensional lifeform, you must have lived for some time.”
The Invisible Demon hurriedly replied, “Master, as far as I’m aware, I have lived for 1,700 red moons in the abyssal world.” The Invisible Demon suddenly looked confused. It felt that it had lived for longer than 1,700 red moons.
In the few years before it had been captured, the purple moon that always hung in the sky had suddenly disappeared.
It was as though the purple moon had been stolen, and no one knew where it went.
The red moon did not appear in the sky anymore without the purple moon. The red moon cycle was the abyssal world dimensional world’s way of marking the passage of time. One red moon cycle took about a year and a half in the main world.
This meant that the Invisible Demon was about 2,250 years old.
Abyss demons had long lives, but the Invisible Demon was considered talented to have been able to evolve to Class XI/Kalpa VIII in a little over 2,000 years.
“Invisible Demon, after living for so many years, you should have your own name.”
The Invisible Demon hastily replied, “Master, I used to live in an Apostle’s territory. The lifeforms that were not believers or Favored Believers did not deserve to have names. Thus, I’ve always been nameless.”
