"elder brother..."
"Don't try to persuade me, Nia, my mind is made up."
Alex shook his head. First it was Mo Fangsheng who persuaded him, then it was Apollo, and now it was his sister who was persuading him. But if he could delay it, who wouldn't want to maintain a good state?
"Shadow, can't you try to persuade your brother?"
Verania looked worriedly at her brother, who was preparing for the Netherworld Ritual. According to her brother, his advancement to the ninth star was scheduled for the next day or two.
Xiao Dai also relayed Mo Fangsheng's opinion about his brother: since there's a high probability he'll be seriously injured after advancing, why bother...?
"Well, this matter... has many causes."
First and foremost are the Void Demons, who are imminent. Unbeknownst to you, Alex has already repelled many enemies who have extended their reach into the Abyss.
The reason why the various Demon Abysses have been tense these days is that they have not yet caught the traitors hiding within. However, the Demon Abysses are now divided into two factions. One faction is the conservative faction led by the Flame Fallen Demon Clan and the Blood Clan. They hope to shrink the Demon Abyss's forces and send heavy troops to the eight original landing points for defense.
Do everything possible to keep enemies at bay.
The forces led by the Abyss Demons and the Skeleton Demons advocated luring the enemy out of their hole and pacifying the internal situation before dealing with external threats, aiming to eliminate all discontent in the Abyss before the Void descends.
Both sides' actions are not wrong in theory, and each has its own reasons, but if they are to be implemented, it will inevitably affect the position of those small and medium-sized demon abysses.
To be honest, although our Netherworld Abyss is a neutral demonic abyss, we share the same stance as the Fallen Demons and the Blood Clan when it comes to the Void. Therefore, it will be difficult for us to maintain a neutral attitude when the two sides finally come to a showdown.
Alex also didn't want everyone to be dependent on others in the future. You know, the Netherworld Abyss wants to rise to power very quickly, as long as he can become the Netherworld Demon Lord.
This time, the Lord of Shadows didn't joke around, which was unusual. Alex ignored him and focused on arranging items that might be useful during his advancement.
Even if the Lord of Shadows spends half a day resting inside him, there are still some things he wouldn't know.
This morning, the vampires and the fallen demons simultaneously pressured the abyss demons and the skeleton demons, seeking to gain control of the abyss.
Furthermore, the number of large demonic abysses allied by both sides is countless. Among the vampires alone, there are the undead and the fierce ghosts, while the other side, such as the skeleton demons, has its own branch demonic abyss, as well as allies such as the demonic winged race and the frost demons.
This doesn't even include the allies of the Fallen Demon Clan and the Abyss Demon Clan.
In the struggle for control of the future of the Demon Abyss, neither side will show any mercy. They are capable of seizing the Demon Abyss by force or ordering it to do something else.
To avoid this from happening, Alex became even more determined to advance immediately.
Heaven knows when such earth-shattering events will happen, just like the Demon Clan a hundred years ago.
Back then, wasn't he just like the Abyss Demon, commanding the entire Demon Abyss?
As a result, it was later conquered by the Abyss Demon and the Fallen Demon, the Abyss of Heart Demons was divided, and the Heart Demons were reduced to less than one-tenth of their original number.
Currently, one of his subordinates in the Netherworld Clan happens to be a member of the Bewitching Demon Clan. If this matter is exposed, he will likely please neither side.
The Bewitching Demon also gave Alex an irresistible reason.
"In the Abyss of Demons, the strong rule everything!"
That's right.
This is the conclusion reached by the Heart Demon Clan after being defeated by the Abyss Demon and the Fallen Demon.
Even if you claim to be a neutral demon abyss, when internal strife breaks out, who cares about your reputation?
Unless you are truly capable, the other party will not even give you the time of day.
In addition, the inner demon's hatred for the Abyss Demon and the Fallen Demon, and the fact that he joined the Netherworld Clan by connecting with Verania in the Northern Region, led to a cooperative deal with Alex.
The reason why the Netherworld Abyss is managed so well now is all thanks to the Fallen Heart Demon Clan, which has saved them from many detours.
Unable to persuade her brother otherwise, Verania left him with a heavy heart. Meanwhile, in the Netherworld Abyss outside, black rain was falling, and Xiao Dai stood outside with an umbrella, waiting for Verania.
"Did it fail?"
"Yes, brother has his own difficulties. Perhaps we should prepare some revival magic to heal him?"
"Uh, won't the Holy Light type of superpower suppress your brother?"
Besides, isn't resurrection magic also a life energy-based magic? Can your brother use it?
Veraniya: Σ(っ°Д°;)っ!
Oh right, how could she forget that?
"I heard that demons have dark magic when I was in school. Does your dark magic have similar effects?"
"Really? At least from what I've encountered... they've all been used for attacking and summoning."
Verania answered somewhat embarrassedly, "Perhaps other demons possess this power?" However, as of now, everything in the Netherworld Abyss was brought back by her brother Alex. Only when her brother advances to become the Netherworld Demon Lord will the Netherworld Legion, which has served the Netherworld Abyss throughout history, return.
Perhaps by then, the Abyss of the Underworld will be able to see more of the dark magic's essence?
"This rain is really heavy."
"Black rain is different from the rain in your human sky. This rain is mixed with the aura of the demonic abyss."
Generally speaking, when it rains black rain, most demons don't hold up umbrellas to maintain their elegance, but rather treat it as a gift of magic, like the Netherworld Demons training in the rain over there.
On the way back to the mansion, Verania also explained to Dai what Black Rain was.
Xiao Dai also noticed those Netherworld soldiers. Indeed, the black rain did contain some demonic energy, which made sense.
