Chapter 848 - Dark Wyrm Clan And The Demons

Leon could not help but deepen his frown after the discovery.

"Just how many relics of the Nova civilization were buried in the Boundless Sea?" Leon muttered to himself while feeling a headache.

"It's not a problem if all the fish turned into sea monsters… the real problem is humans have begun to rely on these sea monsters for cultivation…"

Looking at the situation at the edge of the western region through the realm spirit's omniscience, Leon could see humans eating sea monster meat and absorbing artificial spirit energy from the red sea monster cores.

The side-effects of sea monster meat were unknown to him, but he was pretty clear on the detriments of artificial spirit energy.

"The warriors of the Infertile Plains have already shortened their lifespans with improper tempering of their bodies with dark energy… If they absorb artificial spirit energy, their lifespans will shorten even further…" Leon mused.

Nevertheless, a shortened lifespan was probably the least harmful effect artificial spirit energy could have on living beings.

A single solar wave from the sun would turn all creatures under its influence into grotesque mutants with degraded intelligence.

"This isn't a problem I can solve…" Leon frowned.

Even if he told the humans to stop relying on the artificial spirit energy, they have little chance of complying.

"All tribes are trying to strengthen themselves for the Battle of Hegemony on the Infertile Plains… Only the Seven Tribes Alliance have hopes of heeding my warnings…"

Nevertheless, the Dark Abyss Continent was covered by a veil of dark clouds, protecting all its inhabitants from the harmful rays of the cataclysmic sun—but for how long is the real question.

Leon didn't doubt that once he takes away the realms.h.i.+p, the dark clouds looming over the Dark Abyss Continent will gradually disperse.

"Well… That's a problem to worry about later," Leon shrugged and pushed aside the thoughts, refocusing his attention on Duna and the Arch Demon-level sea monsters.

At the same time, he continued to maintain his Nihility Barrier and acc.u.mulated energy from the dispersed seawater.

The current speed couldn't be compared to when he was on the seafloor, but it was still faster than when he dug through the land to reach the core.

He would have never thought he would gather so much True Grandmist Energy in the past.

'If I invest all this True Grandmist Energy into body cultivation, I could reach Rank 2 Body Transformation in multiple areas… or even Rank 4 Body Transformation in a single area…' Leon mused.

Alas, the realm spirit and his women were also dependent on this energy.

He might end up using all his True Grandmist Energy, but he would never be truly lacking in True Grandmist Energy as long as he has his ability to create more of it.

'The only thing I lack is patience; I'm too impatient. I can achieve what takes others years in a single day, yet that still isn't enough for me…'

'The desire for revenge is ever driving me forward. However, revenge cannot be rushed; if it must be enacted, it must succeed.'

As Duna devoured more and more souls, Leon noticed she was becoming increasingly proficient in her soul-devouring art.

She was becoming more powerful but still far from a breakthrough.

"How many more Arch Demon-level souls do you need for a breakthrough, Duna?" Leon inquired while she was busy preying on the Arch Demon-level sea monsters.

"About another 980 souls of this level, probably," Duna replied while latching onto her next target like a parasite before suddenly adding with a frown, "However, don't you think it's strange?"

Leon's lips twitched after hearing Duna's answer.

In other words, she needed 1000 Arch Demon-level souls to make a breakthrough, a huge contrast to 10-million Lesser Demon-level souls.

Even so, the number was still staggering.

Leon wondered if the Bone Sea even had 1000 Arch Demon-level souls to feed her breakthrough, let alone in their present sea region.

"What is strange?" Leon asked after failing to see anything strange about their present situation.

"There are no demons around here," Duna stated.

"Oh, so it was about this matter…" Leon casually uttered without surprise.

"There's nothing strange about this. The demons have returned to the surface to get some air—Oh, they're gathering their forces and plotting something now."

"Hm? They're moving westward, huh? It seems like my previous visit alerted them…"

The demons' every move could not be hidden from Leon as he spied on them through the realm spirit's omniscience.

However, Duna wasn't aware of his omniscience as the realms.h.i.+p's owner and understood even less why he could be so calm in the face of the situation.

"How—"

Duna wanted to ask, but she was interrupted by another Arch Demon-level sea monster, a giant black squid with dozens of tentacles.

"Courting death!" Duna spat at it with cold eyes.

…

…

…

Meanwhile, the Dark Wyrm Clan finally finished gathering their members from across the Blacksand Desert and started traveling to the western region.

As the entire Dark Wyrm Clan, which numbered more than 2300 members, left the soft sands of the Blacksand Desert and entered the solid yet gra.s.sy plains of the western region, the land rumbled from their heavy movements.

Smaller creatures fled out of their way while some humans from the Blacksand Desert watched on with stunned expressions.

"The secret realm had such a monstrous group of demonic beasts? Who can even stop such a force?" a human warrior wondered.

The Dark Wyrm Clan was no different from a moving mountain range.

Nevertheless, Dark Wyrm Clan showed no interest in the other lifeforms that crossed their paths.

They simply ignored everyone and continued on their journey, moving along the sh.o.r.es facing the Bone Sea.

Eventually, Shadowtail led his clan members to the sh.o.r.es of the western region.

"Lord Leon isn't here, Lord Shadowtail," Nightingale mentioned after the Dark Wyrm Clan settled down in the area.

"I can see that," Lord Shadowtail nodded after inspecting the empty western sh.o.r.e before he said, "Lord Leon may have headed further west."

"Lord Shadowtail, and Lord Nightingale, take a look; it's an army of demons!" Shadowfang suddenly alerted them.

"Oh?"

At the same time, Yakshan and the rest of the demons were also alerted of the scene ahead of them.

"Since when was there such large black mountains at the western sh.o.r.es?"

"Those ain't no mountains; those are f*cking dark wyrms!"
