Transmigrated into a fallen priest, Mark clutches the Forbidden Scripture that would make a saint’s face turn black in his left hand, and a cross blessed by the Abyss in his right.
When the H...
The Ice Crystal Monitor Lizard's crimson pupils swept over Mark, finally settling on the pile of deep-fried spider legs and salt-baked crab roe that exuded a deadly aroma. Thick saliva dripped down, causing the ground to sizzle as it corroded.
"But the scale of the feast... must be changed!"
Its thick tail swept sharply, pointing towards the depths of the churning demonic mist behind it.
"This scorched earth and dark abyss, this vast territory, is now under our will! Four mid-level demon gods, twelve low-level demon gods, and three hundred and seventy-nine high-level demon descendants must all share in the chef's blessing!"
Its voice carried an undeniable pressure, like a declaration from the abyss itself.
"The feast must be a hundred times larger than the leftovers from previous feasts! Otherwise, it would be an insult to our forces!"
The air seemed to freeze.
The octopus-like demon's sucker-covered tentacles excitedly coiled together, while the poison ivy tree demon's branches trembled, releasing a cloud of spores with a paralyzing effect.
Their greedy gazes were fixed on Mark, and an invisible pressure surged forth like a tidal wave.
They, who usually only eat leftovers, couldn't possibly let this opportunity pass them by!
Enzo, carrying his rune-forged hammer, twitched his lava-like beard and muttered under his breath, "Good heavens, I thought they were going to ask for an exorbitant price... a hundred times more than usual. Even with so many monsters, they probably won't have enough to eat."
Monica's lips curled up slightly as she nodded and whispered, "We haven't even advanced to the legendary level yet. With so many lower-level demon gods and mid-level demon gods, how could they possibly have enough to eat?"
Mark showed no surprise or embarrassment.
He gently patted the warm cross necklace on his chest, feeling the almost primal control over power brought about by the "All Saints Cleric" realm.
“Okay.” Mark’s voice was calm and confident, even carrying a hint of composure as if he had expected it, instantly dispelling the oppressive atmosphere that the demons had deliberately created.
"You provide the materials." He glanced at the three enormous, ferocious demon gods, a confident smile playing on his lips. "As long as you can send them, I can make it. Even if you send ten times that number, let alone a mere few hundred demon descendants, I can handle it!"
"Roar!" The Ice Crystal Giant Lizard let out a satisfied growl, the Octopus Demon God's tentacles slapped the ground with pleasure, and the spore cloud around the Poison Ivy Tree Demon exuded a joyful aura.
The promise of satisfying greed is more persuasive to creatures of the abyss than any coercion or enticement.
People on the Holy Dragon Continent say that the monsters in the abyss are all chaotic and disorderly creatures.
But if they actually act towards a goal, their efficiency is astonishing.
The three-headed mid-level demon god let out a silent roar, and his terrifying will swept across the thousands of miles of demonic realm like an invisible tide!
The lower-ranking demons and high-ranking demons who were originally lurking deep in the demonic mist, afraid to approach Mark's team.
Driven by the absolute command of a higher being and the alluring promise of "sharing the feast," they mobilized like a war machine running at full speed.
Enzo and Monica became almost the most relaxed supervisors.
On the scorched plains, hordes of lava demons and dark trolls roared and charged toward the area designated by Enzo, like a fiery tide being driven.
Enzo only needed to stand on high ground with his buzzing rune hammer, and with a single glance, strong demonic beings would pounce on him, using abyssal chains or magical restraints to pin down any kin who tried to resist, dragging them in front of Enzo.
Enzo grinned and swung his forging hammer: "Hey! This one's got some guts! Count me in!"
The hammer fell, and dark lightning exploded, easily reaping the mission progress without any hesitation.
On the other side, Monica moved like a butterfly among the mountains of monster materials.
Various bizarre and unique abyssal creatures, either captured alive or recently killed, are continuously being sent over.
Her discerning eye opened in full, transforming into a high-speed scanner, the light from her fingertip identification technique forming a dazzling screen.
"Abyssal Bone-Eating Moth, its bone material contains faint spatial fluctuations, a rare-grade material, acquire!"
"The Styx Three-Headed Worm, its core glands are highly corrosive and can be used to extract extremely toxic solvents. A legendary material, acquire it!"
"A complete Shadow Weaver's silk sac... Excellent! Legendary material, I'll take it!"
Her movements were swift, and each appraisal and collection was accompanied by the faint glow of her spatial ring, causing the progress bar for the legendary advancement to jump wildly at an unprecedented speed.
The demons responsible for delivering the goods dared not even glance at these precious materials under the strict orders of the demon god.
As Enzo's hammer shattered the head of the last dark troll, Monica's fingertips swept across a strange creature shaped like a crystal scorpion, collecting its stinger into her ring.
Two completely different yet equally powerful and vast legendary pressures, like a dormant volcano suddenly erupting, crashed down on this filthy, scorched earth!
"Open it for me!"
Enzo's roar was like a thunderclap!
His arms were bulging with muscles like dragons, and he swung the rune-forged hammer high into the air with a violent momentum that could stir up the abyss, slamming it down hard onto the cracked earth beneath his feet!
boom--!!!
It was as if the war drums of the abyss had been sounded!
The raging power of dark lava emanated from the point where the forging hammer struck, forming a dark red wave of destruction that suddenly spread out in a ring!
The ground cracked and bulged up inch by inch, like a fragile eggshell!
The scorching, viscous lava, like raging fire suppressed for millennia, burst forth from countless cracks, instantly creating a boiling lava lake on the scorched earth!
The scorching heatwave, mixed with the aura of sulfur and destruction, evaporated all the surrounding demonic energy.
Enzo stood on a floating boulder in the heart of the lava lake, his body radiating a tangible, dark lava power, like a lava overlord emerging from hell.
Perhaps it was the blessing of the mysterious seven-colored black light that allowed him, like Mark and Anna, to advance to the legendary level as a dwarf blacksmith and a dark furnace guardian!
With Enzo's maniacal laughter, his unique domain aura, [Dark Forged Heart], was unleashed!
Within this realm, all metals and dark matter seemed to become extensions of his will!
Almost at the same instant, Monica's figure became incredibly ethereal, as if it had merged into the omnipresent shadows.
She didn't have any earth-shattering outburst; she just stood there quietly.
But centered on her, an invisible domain silently unfolded—the [Domain of Insight]!
Within the realm, time seemed to stretch out, capturing the trajectory of every flying dust particle, the flow of every wisp of demonic energy, and even the finest cracks on the distant demon god's armor.
All of this was transformed into crystal-clear data, which was then reconstructed and deduced in her discerning eyes, which seemed to contain billions of stars.
Information is power!
At this moment, she is the absolute controller and interpreter of this area, and no detail can escape her insight.
The power of the extreme mutation, like a gentle river, has been perfectly solidified in their newly born legendary bloodline, becoming an instinct as ingrained as an extension of their own limbs.
