Through the course of history, many previous Asmodian Lords had gotten slaughtered but only one that had reached the Semi-God Realm was killed. It was in the distant ancient times and Emperor of Heaven Reverse was the one who did it. Since then, it never happened again.
History had repeated itself today!
A Semi-God Realm Asmodian Lord had lost his life. To make it worse, he had the help of the Dragon Demon, a beast from the Region of Doom. Zuo Tengxiong and the other Asmodians were devastated.
The Asmodian Lord was gone, and the Originator Artifact was ruined. The Dragon Demon could not defeat Lu Li. None could stop the destruction of the Asmodians.
Humans and the four alien races were each other’s nemesis. The deep-seated hatred caused by blood-debt could never be forgotten. Where there was a chance, humans and the four alien races would slaughter and enslave each other. Neither side would give the other side a chance to rise up again.
Lu Li was stronger than anyone right now. Even without Lu Li, the Asmodians had lost too many powerful ones to repel the human’s assault.
“Okay!”
Some grieved while others rejoiced. Patriarch Lei was ravished with joy. The death of the Asmodian Lord and the destruction of the Originator Artifact represented the doom of the Asmodians. If Lu Li could crush or even kill the Dragon Demon, even the Demon-slaying Hall’s patriarchs alone could conquer the Eastern Land of Oceans.
“Phew, phew~”
Lu Li did not appear to be joyful or sad when the Asmodian Lord died. He closed his eyes at this moment because he had sensed something wrong–he was experiencing something unforeseen in his body!
He checked his body, only to find that a lot of his vitality had been consumed. He felt that his vitality was sapped to such an extent that he was like a dying invalid. A gentle breeze could bring him down.
Just now, he had been attacking continuously and he had been using the energy in the blood of the Slayer all along. Therefore, he did not notice. Only when he stopped did he realize the problem. After analyzing himself several times, he suddenly understood…
The blood of the Slayer was too much for him. It was the power of an immortal. Lu Li, a mortal human being, had borrowed the power from a god. His abilities soared up quickly, which enabled him to kill the enemy. On the other hand, the side effects were clear. His vitality was sapped. The reason why his hair had turned white was because his source of life was undermined.
Like a warrior that could lift up one hundred and ten pounds. Imagine that same warrior had lifted up a weight one hundred times heavier than what he usually could lift under the effects of a certain drug. That warrior might not feel the side effects right at that moment. However, as the drug wore off, that warrior would see serious damage to his body.
It was not some regular injury, not a serious wound from being attacked, stabbed or not even the loss of a limb. It was damage to the source of life, to his vitality.
“I must crash or kill the Dragon Demon as soon as possible!”
Lu Li made up his mind instantly. The Asmodian Lord had died. But what if there were other Asmodians that could control the Dragon Demon? While he was still able to move, before the energy in the blood of the Slayer vanished, he must control the situation.
“Buzzing!”
Lu Li opened his eyes. A surge of violent spirit spread across. He flew over in a blur to the Dragon Demon above in the sky.
Nobody was controlling the Dragon Demon after the Asmodian Lord died. It was standing there, dumbfounded. The Dragon Demon seemed to be more powerful, but it was still not intelligent.
“Hoot, hoot~”
Seeing Lu Li coming over, the Dragon Demon flinched in terror, looking at him with fear in its eyes, taking the place of the previous ferocity. The Dragon Demon was more like a poor kitten, wagging its tail and begging for mercy.
Lu Li was going to take actions right away to crash the Dragon Demon and kill him. However, the Dragon Demon being so gave him another idea. He shouted coldly, “Dragon Demon, I present to you two choices. Either you surrender to me, or you die!”
“Hoot, hoot?”
The Dragon Demon could not understand Lu Li. It howled in confusion and blinked. Lu Li remembered something. He shouted to the distance, “Little White, come over here.”
“Whoosh~”
Little White was heavily mauled, but it was excited that Lu Li was out of danger and that he had killed the Asmodian Lord. Little White flew over at once, threw itself into his arms and looked at him with its pitiful eyes.
“Buzzing!”
Lu Li took out some Soul Crystals for Little White to eat and told it at once, “Little White, tell the Dragon Demon in your language. Tell it to choose between surrender or death!”
“Squeak, squeak~”
Little White nodded in excitement. Its hair stood on its root. Little White kept shouting at the Dragon Demon. But it was just like a puppy barking at a huge beast in the wild.
Little White had always been able to communicate with Xuan Beasts and it could control many low-level ones. But Lu Li was not sure if Little White could talk to the Dragon Demon which was from another world, and not the Heaven Reverse Universe.
“The Dragon Demon can understand Little White!”
Lu Li took a look and saw the hesitation in the Dragon Demon’s eyes. He was inspired with enthusiasm. But he showed no trace of happiness. Instead, his killing intent was growing stronger. He stood in the air, proudly, waiting for the Dragon Demon to make a decision.
Time continuously passed. Lu Li was getting weaker and weaker. He had little time. The weakness in his body and soul made him sleepy.
“Little White, tell the Dragon Demon, I will kill it at once if it does not wish to surrender!”
Lu Li decided not to wait. He shouted angrily as he began to allocate the energy of the blood of the Slayer. His power was growing ever more frightening. His blood-red eyes were shining like moons, as though there was another world in his eyes.
Lu Li’s hand was shimmering in red as well. He was ready to kill the Dragon Demon. Its bell-sized eyes were showing hesitation. After a moment, the Dragon Demon let out a cry. Then, the Dragon Demon lowered its head and got on all fours. The Dragon Demon surrendered to Lu Li silently.
“Squeak, squeak~”
Little White was not satisfied. Its hair was standing on its root again as Little White screamed. The Dragon Demon grunted. Between its eyebrows came out a ray of light. A blood-red bead flew out in between Lu Li’s eyebrows.
“What the hell is that?”
Lu Li mistakenly thought that the Dragon Demon was about to attack him, but he did not sense any danger. Little White screamed excitedly at the moment and waved its little paws, as though to tell Lu Li to accept the bead.
Lu Li did not fight back and let the bead into his eyebrows. The bead entered his Soul Pond. At that moment, Lu Li finally understood, the Dragon Demon did surrender to him. It had become his spirit beast. He had made a spiritual connection with the Dragon Demon through the bead.
“Okay!”
Lu Li was relieved and delighted. The Dragon Demon was powerful and now, it was his spirit beast. From today on, there was no one in the Heaven Reverse Universe that could defeat him. There was no one that could threaten the Great Land.
“Buzzing~”
The Dragon Demon glowed in bright red. Its huge body thinned down till the Dragon Demon became a current of air that went in between Lu Li’s eyebrows. The Dragon Demon vanished into his head.
Between Lu Li’s eyebrows came out a light red tattoo. If people looked closely, they would see that it was a small Dragon Demon.
“Well… the Dragon Demon can do this?”
Even surprised, Lu Li did not have time to think too much for his body and soul were vulnerable.
Putting away the Wicked Bead, Lu Li shouted, “Patriarch Lei, take care of the rest. I need to rest for a while.”
Lu Li shouted loudly since he wanted the Asmodians to hear him. Before he passed out, he whispered something else to Patriarch Lei, “Take me back at once. Find great healers to treat me. My vitality has been sapped.”
Lu Li could enter the Wicked Bead which would be safer, but he chose not to because he was afraid that he might not be able to come back out.
He was greatly undermined. Without miracle elixirs, he might never wake up again…
