Demon Spirit Dream, demons live forever.
The scene in front of him, coupled with the introduction of this inexplicably enthusiastic high-grade demon, allowed Wang Lu to quickly understand the rules of this dream.
It was indeed very simple, there was only one so-called rule: in this space, the demons would never die. No matter what method was used, the demons could not be completely eliminated. Every time death came, it meant the beginning of a new life.
According to Wang Lu's understanding of the dream building technique, this kind of heaven-defying rule was almost impossible to enforce, but in fact, this rule had been faithfully enforced for two thousand years. What he saw in front of him was the demon spirit warriors that had been gathered in the demon spirit dream for two thousand years, the total number of which was more than a million.
Judging from the fertility rate of the desert tribes, the population born in two thousand years was actually more than a million, but the demon spirit dream would only accept warriors who died fighting against the invisible demons, it was not open to ordinary demons. Not many of these million demon warriors came from the desert tribes, and most of them were recruits that had been bred in the demon spirit dream.
And now, the desert tribes that only had a little more than a thousand people left were even more insignificant to the demon spirit dream.
"However, it's still very happy to see new faces, it's just that you have all degenerated to the point where you are almost the same as humans!"
The high-ranking Devil sighed in a low voice.
"I came here 1100 years ago. At that time, the scale of the demon spirit dream was not as large as it is now, and every newcomer was a precious resource. Because those who can persist in fighting against the invisible demons to the end are the best warriors in the tribe, they can quickly recover in the demon spirit dream and become reliable comrades. Unfortunately, since I came here, the new recruits are getting weaker and fewer, it can be seen that the situation outside is getting more and more difficult. Sigh, there is not much time left for us. "
The demon just sighed, and in the blink of an eye, there was another expression: "But you two newcomers don't have to worry too much, on this land, you will soon restore the posture that the demons should have. Before, you were just squeezed too hard by the harsh environment. Don't worry, us seniors will take good care of you until you become qualified warriors. "
As soon as he finished speaking, he saw a series of different-colored fireballs flying in the distance, coming menacingly. The high-grade devilish being's expression changed drastically upon seeing this. "Get out of here! We've been targeted!"
Wang Lu and Ouyang Shang didn't hesitate and immediately cast a spell to escape with the high-ranking devil. A moment later, the place where they had been standing was engulfed in a sea of flames. When the heterochromatic fireball hit the ground, it triggered an earth-shattering explosion. The earth was torn apart, and lava spurted out. The scorching airwaves made even Reverend King Pill, who was several kilometers away, feel a wave of disgust.
"That big guy will occasionally take the initiative to attack, and every time it does, it's like an apocalypse. If you're hit, it'll take a long time to revive. It's not worth it."
Seeing as the high-grade devilish lord was about to broach the subject, Wang Lu hurriedly cut him off before asking an important question.
"Who's that big guy? Why do you have to fight it endlessly? "
The high-tier devilish being stared at Wang Lu with incredulity in his eyes. "You two don't even remember how you got here? That big fellow is, of course, the formless demon, the greatest enemy of our demon race! As long as it hasn't been destroyed, the war will never stop! "
Wang Lu turned to look at the darkness that occupied half of the world. "Is that the true form of the formless demon? Er, do you really think that overwhelming numbers is going to work against that thing? "
"Of course it's going to work! It may seem invincible now, but you have to know that over 99% of this world was occupied by darkness 2,000 years ago. Now, we can already fight it as an equal! At this rate, as long as we can hold on for another 500 years at most, we'll be able to completely dominate and destroy the formless demon! "
"Regardless of whether your opponent will just sit idly by and let you continue to grow... Even if you win in the demon spirit dream, will you really be able to affect your opponent?"
"Of course we can! As long as we can win here, the formless demon will be destroyed! "
The high-grade devilish lord didn't elaborate on the reason, but it appeared that he had no doubt about this.
Thus, Wang Lu didn't dwell on this question any longer. Instead, he asked, "But what day is it today? Why is there such a large-scale battle?"
"Nothing special, we've always fought like this."
"Always?" Wang Lu was surprised. "You've been fighting it like this for 2,000 years?"
"That's right!" The high-tier devilish lord replied proudly. "For the past 2,000 years, the war has never stopped!"
"So... all of you? Keep fighting, and keep coming back from the dead? Apart from fighting? Is there no other activity? "
The high-tier devilish lord was perplexed. "What other activity? Before we kill the formless demon, we don't need anything except fighting! "
Wang Lu was even more surprised. "At the very least, we need to reproduce, right? Aren't most of these million people born locally? "
The high-tier devilish lord laughed. "You mean population growth? It's very simple. Sometimes, some of us are torn in half by the formless demon, and when we come back to life, we'll become two people... Look at that one over there, doesn't he look exactly like me? We were cut in half by the formless demon 300 years ago, and when we wake up, we're already like this. "
"Holy f * ck, you're multiplying by amitosis?! Alright, apart from reproduction, what else? Don't you feel tired? After 2,000 years of fighting, don't you feel bored, painful, or tired of fighting? "
Looking at the tens of thousands of devilish beings on the demarcation line of the battlefield being eroded by the darkness, as if they were raw meat sent into a meat grinder... Wang Lu really didn't think that anyone could persist in such an environment for 2,000 years. Even the most belligerent warriors of Flaming Valley had to vent to their heart's content after the war, or stuff themselves with food or women... It was impossible to fight non-stop, let alone 2,000 years!
Although the royal family of the Demon Realm had conquered the Demon Realm, as warriors, they were no better than those of Flaming Valley. They would feel fear, fatigue, and depression. This endless war was completely unreasonable!
"Oh, why do you two newcomers have so many questions? Have the tribal people become so wishy-washy? If you want to know why, just go to the battlefield with me and experience it! "
As he spoke, the high-tier devilish lord took out a pair of sharp pitch-black spears from god knows where.
"Here, take it, and then rush with me later. As long as you experience the reincarnation of life and death once, you will know why we can persist for 2,000 years."
Then he took the lead, directly crossing the large troop of the Demon Realm and rushing to the front of the battlefield.
The strength of this high-tier devilish lord was equivalent to that of a Xudan Stage cultivator, and he had a variety of magical abilities. At this time, he was like a martial artist in the mortal world, charging forward purely with his physical strength. In the blink of an eye, he crossed the vast battlefield and arrived at the front. He roared loudly, raised his spear, and stabbed it into the darkness. Then he saw the black tide roll over him, and not even his bones were left.
It was a soul-stirring but foolhardy charge.
A moment later, the high-tier devilish lord descended from the sky and looked at Wang Lu and Ouyang Shang with a puzzled expression. "You two didn't follow me?"
Of course, they couldn't follow him. These demons had the ability to resurrect, but the two invaders absolutely couldn't. If they were swept by the black tide, they would definitely die without a burial place.
However, while they were talking, many of the surrounding demons turned their eyes and curiously looked at these two people.
"Newcomers?"
"It looks more and more strange... What happened to the people outside now? Did they marry humans? "
"Their strength seems not bad, but their courage is not so good."
"Don't be afraid, when you really die once, you will know that the so-called fear and pain are all false, and will disappear with the reincarnation of life and death. What you have to do is to keep fighting!"
More and more demons surrounded the two of them and discussed. Wang Lu and Ouyang Shang exchanged glances, knowing that if they let them continue to watch, they would definitely reveal their flaws. After all, these two demon recruits were exactly the same as humans. This setting was really abnormal. Only this group of demons, who had been fighting for two thousand years, whose brains were full of tumors, could not find any problems for so long.
So the two of them made a prompt decision, and without saying a word of nonsense, they each raised their spears and rushed forward. Then, when they were about to come into contact with the darkness, Ouyang Shang took the two of them underground.
"... It should be safe, right?"
Hiding in the dark underground world, the two of them used their own means to restrain their breath and shield their perception. The strength of the two of them was not particularly high, but they were also confident that they could hide from the group of demon warriors with tumors in their brains outside.
This kind of straightforward fighting that had lasted for two thousand years had already greatly degraded their perception ability. Apart from fighting head-on, these people's other abilities had gradually disappeared, and there was nothing to be afraid of.
"This dream is very interesting." When the situation stabilized, Wang Lu said, "With Fenrir as the imaginary enemy, the continuous bloody battle for two thousand years... What is the use of it?"
"The Fenrir here should have nothing to do with the real Fenrir." Ouyang Shang speculated, "I think it's just a lure. This bloody battle is more like a collection ceremony, but what does the demon king want to collect through it?"
Wang Lu said, "It should be negative emotions... This demon spirit dream is in a sense the same as the new demon world. The demons of the new demon world were deprived of hatred, and the warriors of the demon spirit dream were deprived of pain, depression, fatigue, and so on, becoming more simple creatures. But this part of the emotions cannot completely disappear. They are just collected to make a weapon that can determine the fate of the universe... "
"Black tide?" After all, Ouyang Shang had not been to the demon world and the new demon world, so his reaction was not as fast as Wang Lu's. But after being reminded, he quickly found the right direction.
"That's most likely the case. In this way, it can be linked to the known historical line. The black tide in the Savage Land did not come from the weak desert tribe, nor did it come from the Demon Wolf Fenrir, but from the demon spirit dream."
"So the next step is to find a way to destroy this dream? But with the scale of this dream... Do you have any way? "
Wang Lu smiled...
"What a coincidence, there really is."
