The sound of this rhythm meant that the Red Sea Egg was ready and full of energy, ready to start working at any time.
But after seeing this, Roy still did not move and continued to wait.
As expected, after a while, after the roots of the Red Sea Egg absorbed the insect egg fossils, they instinctively explored other sources of nutrition.
And this source of nutrition was the insect shell of Beelzebub standing in the square!
"What does it want to do?" Benia said in surprise. "Don't tell me it wants to absorb that shell?!"
"Won't you know after taking a look?" Roy crossed his arms, but his heart was filled with infinite hope.
Although Benia suggested that Roy try to see if he could see the essence of Beelzebub's shell and discover some of the essence of demon king-level power, Roy found that there seemed to be no good way to do this after thinking about it carefully.
This was because this shell was purely some biological tissue. Other than the magic power left on it, there were no soul fragments of Beelzebub. Regardless of whether it was memories or inheritances, they had to be carried by souls or soul fragments. Without souls or soul fragments, wanting to comprehend the essence of high-level power was simply a joke.
This was not like wuxia or xianxia, where he could meditate and say, "I understand!" He could really comprehend it. Even if he could, it was still uncertain whether Roy had that kind of comprehension ability.
Therefore, Roy's initial thought was to transform the remaining magic power in this shell into his own. As for whether he could comprehend anything from this magic power, it would depend on luck.
Demons devouring souls would increase their magic power, but devouring corpses might not necessarily do so, not to mention the dead skin of Beelzebub's shell. This way, if he wanted to transform the magic power in the shell into his own, he would need to find another way. This was also why Roy chose to plant the Red Sea Egg.
Roy felt that since the total amount of magic power left in this shell was roughly equivalent to his total amount of magic power, why not use the Red Sea Egg to absorb this magic power and then use his body tissues to create a new clone and transfer the magic power to this clone? Wouldn't he be able to obtain a ready-made demon lord-level clone?
At that time, as long as he fine-tuned the clone and made the attributes of the clone and his main body as much as possible, wouldn't he be able to use the Fusion again?
Once he completed the Fusion, it would be equivalent to instantly doubling Roy's total magic power!
Such a ready-made benefit was not something that he could encounter at any time. Under normal circumstances, if Roy wanted to create an identical demon lord-level clone, he would have to invest at least tens or even millions of souls to increase its magic power. Now that he had this shell, wouldn't he save these souls?
With the attitude of giving it a try no matter what, Roy planted the Red Sea Egg. And now, as he had expected, the Red Sea Egg began to become interested in the shell. But it seemed that the demon king aura emanating from the shell made it a little afraid, so its roots only dared to linger around the shell.
If it were a living creature, after sensing the intentions of the Red Sea Egg's roots, it would definitely be furious and attack these roots. In that case, the Red Sea Egg might retreat. But unfortunately, the shell would not move at all, nor would it have any hostility toward the Red Sea Egg. This caused the Red Sea Egg to keep probing. After discovering that the target did not react, it began to become bolder and bolder.
Its roots slowly extended towards Beelzebub's body. In the end, it finally touched Beelzebub's body.
When it first touched it, its roots shrank back in fright. But when it found that there was really no reaction and no counterattack, the Red Sea Egg's roots suddenly swarmed forward and fiercely pounced on the shell!
This action was very much like a wild beast hunting prey in nature. After confirming that the prey was really not dangerous, the Red Sea Egg behaved abnormally greedy and impatient. A large number of roots quickly climbed up the shell like a crazily growing creeper, quickly covering the shell.
While covering it, these roots also began to absorb the remaining magic power in the shell. Countless roots seemed to have been thirsty for a long time as they squeezed out the magic power in the shell with all their might and transported it to the flower bud.
At the same time, seeing this scene, Roy walked forward and placed his hand on the wall of the flower bud, using a weak electric current to guide and adjust the flower bud.
Roy wanted to use this absorbed magic power, so of course, he could not let the Red Sea Egg absorb it. Otherwise, it would use this magic power to grow itself and become even larger. Roy had to stop it from doing this and let it store the magic power it absorbed.
With Roy's adjustment, the speed at which the Red Sea Egg extracted magic power slowed down a little, but it still absorbed it tirelessly.
When he felt that it was about time, Roy let go, summoned Frostmourne, and slashed at his left arm!
Blood gushed out, but it stopped in less than half a minute. Then the muscle tissue of the severed arm produced countless granulation granulation and began to regenerate. It would probably take at most an hour for this severed arm to regenerate.
While sighing that a male demon had to be ruthless to himself, Roy picked up his left arm that had fallen to the ground, flew up a little, and put the severed arm into the opening on the flower bud.
With Roy's limb tissue, the Red Sea Egg truly entered a working state, and its rhythm accelerated a lot. In the invisible flower bud, Roy's arm was quickly analyzed and cloned.
At the same time, the magic power absorbed from the shell began to slowly inject into the new clone.
Roy retreated and waited quietly. Benia did not quite understand the function of the Red Sea Egg, so she asked curiously. Roy did not hide it from her and explained it to her.
Benia did not quite understand the word clone, but she could roughly understand it. She asked doubtfully, "According to what you said, the Red Sea Egg will use your severed arm to create a flesh clone of you, right? But the magic power of this clone comes from Beelzebub's shell? "
"That's what I mean!" Roy nodded.
"But … don't forget, that shell is also a biological tissue. Won't it affect your clone during the absorption process?" Benia asked doubtfully. "Will this cause your clone to have the bloodline of Beelzebub?"
"… That's possible!" Roy hesitated for a moment before nodding. "In fact, I was worried about this just now. Originally, I could have absorbed this magic power by entering the flower bud myself, but I didn't rashly enter. After all, the effects are unknown. It's best to experiment with a clone. Even if something goes wrong, it won't affect my main body."
"Then we'll see what happens to the clone," Benia said. "By the way, the clone you created like this doesn't have a soul, right? Looks like you'll have to prepare a fragment of your soul. "
This was indeed a problem. When Roy used the Red Sea Egg to create his first clone, he used Uriel's soul to drive it. But now, he did not have such a suitable soul in his hands. Moreover, he was also considering a problem. The soul in the clone would eventually fuse with his soul through the Fusion technique. In this case, it would not be good to have too many mixed souls.
So after thinking about it, Roy decided to use his soul fragment this time.
Roy knew the method of splitting soul fragments. This method naturally came from the inherited memories of the spider demon Araniya, but he had never tried it himself.
Roy condensed magic power on his intact right arm and chanted an incantation in the demon language. Under the effect of the incantation, the magic power radiance on Roy's right arm changed, and his entire arm became translucent!
This was Soul Touch magic, a special kind of magic that could touch the souls of living creatures!
Then Roy slowly inserted this translucent right hand into his chest. The moment his fingertips touched his chest, ripples appeared on the surface of his chest. Without breaking any skin, Roy's right hand actually inserted into his chest.
Even touching his own soul was quite uncomfortable, but Roy endured it, grabbed the soul in his body, and slowly took it out.
The moment the soul left his body, Roy felt that his entire body was not good, and an extreme sense of emptiness filled his entire body.
At this moment, Roy finally saw his soul for the first time. It was an enormous soul emitting pitch-black light. This size and texture represented his identity as a demon lord, which was different from other demons. If he had to compare, Kha-Beleth's soul was about this size.
But what was strange was that there were thin golden lines on the surface of Roy's soul. If he looked closely, he would find that in addition to the golden lines, there was also a faint blue light!
Seeing this, Roy's heart tightened. Needless to say, he knew that these golden lines were caused by him fusing with Uriel's soul. This was the soul residue of an angel, and it was shown in the golden lines.
Sure enough, Soul Fusion couldn't be done too much, because after the fusion, these souls wouldn't disappear completely, but instead, they would attach themselves to one's soul in this way. Who knew what would happen to one's soul if one fused too many souls?
As for the almost undetectable blue light, it was what surprised him the most because he had seen it before.
This blue light came from the unique light of human souls!
Perhaps it was precisely because of the existence of this light that although Roy was born a demon, he still had the memories of his previous life …
Of course, despite the existence of these two lights, Roy's soul was still mainly pitch-black. This was the color of a pure demon soul, and this entire soul was still connected to Roy's body.
Not daring to expose his soul for too long, Roy quickly cut off a small piece of his soul and stuffed it back into his body.
This small piece that was cut off gradually became round in Roy's hand and became a much smaller ball of soul light. Although he was holding this soul fragment in his hand, Roy still felt as though he had lost something important. His body felt empty, and even his spirit was a little dispirited.
Roy understood that this was the effect of splitting his soul. Fortunately, after getting used to it, this feeling gradually disappeared. Moreover, when he thought about how he would use the Fusion technique with his clone later and retrieve the soul fragment, he felt better.
After splitting his soul, Roy suddenly understood what was going on with the demon king-level clones of Samuel and the others. If the soul fragments split from the main body were placed in a powerful demon king-level body, it seemed that they could create this kind of demon king-level clone.
Of course, it was not easy, because it was very difficult to find such a powerful body.
Just like Roy now, he was also creating a demon lord-level clone. But if he had not coincidentally encountered Beelzebub's shell and had a divine artifact like the Red Sea Egg in hand, he might not have been able to do it …
