This was the law of the Abyss. The lifeforms controlled by an Overlord were the private property of the Overlord. In a war, the defeated Overlord would either be killed or serve. These armies would become the property of the new Overlord and they could do whatever they wanted.
He had previously obtained information that an Evil Bone Demon named Steer had suddenly risen a few hundred kilometers away. His rise was frightening, and in less than a year, he controlled several hundred kilometers of territory.
Such a high profile and rising so fast … Apart from the Bronze Beastman Steer, Lin Yun couldn't think of any other possibility.
He hadn't even gotten rid of that idiot yet he delivered himself to his doorstep, so he could only get rid of him in passing.
The new territory was waiting to be accepted. After arriving at the new territory, Lin Yun discovered that there was a large amount of resources there. Unfortunately, Steer didn't care about these resources, which were extremely precious in Noscent.
Because he simply couldn't take away these resources.
When he finally left the Abyss and regained his body, only his soul would be able to leave. Nothing here could be taken away.
But Lin Yun could. These resources, which were very precious in Noscent, were thrown into the Demiplane by Lin Yun.
As his level slowly increased, Lin Yun's path of conquest didn't stop. In any case, as long as he didn't die, he would have to leave this place sooner or later. What was the point of worrying so much? Taking advantage of the opportunity to fish for some precious resources was the most important thing.
A Level 35 pureblood Flame Demon controlled a territory of close to a thousand kilometers. After the news of Lin Yun getting rid of Steer spread, the Overlords of the surrounding small territories decisively chose to surrender.
After learning that the new Overlord was a pureblood Flame Demon who loved to collect all kinds of materials, a large amount of precious resources were sent to Lin Yun as gifts.
He picked up a Bloodthirsty Abyssal Tree's Treeheart, which had already been burnt to a crisp. He casually crushed the burnt Treeheart before looking at his palm covered in lava and sighed.
No wonder the territories of pureblood Flame Demons were filled with volcanoes full of lava, or rich in fire elements and filled with flames.
There were so many precious materials, but most of them couldn't even be touched. The alchemy tools would be burnt to ashes if touched, and the hard metal would be melted in a few seconds.
No wonder alchemy couldn't develop in the Abyss. Most Demons couldn't even touch alchemy equipment. Apart from those magic books made of powerful magic beasts' hides, anything else would be destroyed by the mana attached to their bodies.
Thinking about it, it seemed to be the case. The magic books of the Abyss were powerful Magic Tools in themselves. Books that could record knowledge were very rare, and every book could be used as a Magic Tool.
Walking out of the warehouse that stored all kinds of precious materials, Lin Yun looked back at the burnt door and sighed helplessly.
"Bajiao, why has your conquest slowed down recently?"
With a kick, Lin Yun sent Bajiao, who was waiting outside the door, flying out. The scorching lava scalded Bajiao, causing him to shriek miserably.
After falling to the ground, Bajiao, who had already transformed into a Lesser Demon, hurriedly ran over and explained with some hesitation.
"Great Master, your territory has already expanded to two thousand kilometers. Seven of the Overlords of the surrounding eight small territories have already surrendered, and the last one has already been eliminated.
"But if your territory expands a bit more, it will encroach on the territory of the steel fort. The rulers of the four sides are powerful Demons, three of them are Demon Overlords, and the last one is a Peak Level 39 Lesser Demon Overlord.
"Their legions are very powerful, and the number of Demons is also very large. The ruler of the northern side already dispatched an emissary to make Master submit …"
As Bajiao spoke, he cautiously looked at Lin Yun's expression. Seeing that Lin Yun's expression was a bit bad, he immediately added, "Master is a powerful pureblood Flame Demon, how could he submit to a Bone Demon?
"Master is a powerful pureblood Flame Demon, how could he serve a Bone Demon? That dogsh * t emissary has already been killed and thrown to those reptiles as food.
"As for that idiotic Bone Demon, he can only wait to be turned to ashes by Master's great flames …"
'Damn, fortunately, I was smart enough to capture that arrogant and irascible emissary first. I knew that Master definitely looked down on that Bone Demon. That Bone Demon actually dared to make a pureblood Flame Demon like Master submit. He is simply courting death.
'His soul is bound to be thrown into the bottomless Abyss to be tortured. Right, I'll personally get rid of that stupid emissary after leaving. The taste of a Goat Horn Demon is pretty good, but the stench is a bit too strong.' Forget it, I'll just throw it to those reptiles that aren't picky. The great Lord Bajiao is now a Demon, so how could he casually eat that filthy food … '
The war started once again, and the huge Abyssal Legion was once again thrown into a protracted war. The huge territory of two thousand kilometers had enough abyssal lifeforms to support this protracted war.
These abyssal lifeforms were like weeds after the rain. As long as there was something edible, cutting off a layer of it would immediately cause a new layer to grow. And the battlefield was an opportunity for these idiots who weren't picky eaters to have an endless supply of food.
This war was bound to go on for a long time, so Lin Yun kept devouring Mana Water to increase his level.
On the other side, in the entire world, demons suddenly emerged one after another at a terrifying speed. More than a dozen demons of various races were constantly fighting.
The human and Beastman powerhouses had almost reached Level 30 in a year or two. With the experience of advancing to the Heaven Rank, even if they reincarnated as Demons, they could still rapidly increase their level.
Plundering resources was the only way to increase this speed.
And if they wanted enough resources, they had to expand their territories, and in order to expand their territories, they had to fight.
Not everyone was as unlucky as Lin Yun, being surrounded by three Demon Overlords and a Quasi-Demon Overlord.
Morgan's luck was pretty good, he reincarnated in the underground world. That place was chaotic and without a wisp of light, and Darkness Demons were the Demons with the highest bloodline there.
In that well-connected underground world, he got rid of another Darkness Demon and occupied an underground city. A huge amount of resources kept being sent to Morgan. He kept all the resources that could help him quickly increase his strength, while the rest were distributed to his subordinates.
In the selfish and greedy Demon World, a generous Demon Overlord could easily attract enough loyal subordinates. More importantly, the deepest part of the underground world was the entrance leading to the next layer of the Abyss. Apart from the slumbering Black Dragon Overlord, there was no Demon Overlord.
Morgan's progress was very fast. The entire underground world's resources were converging on him, so his speed was naturally very fast.
As for the unlucky ones, like Cross, that Peak 3rd Rank Heaven Gold Beastman powerhouse, he reincarnated in a relatively remote area without too many resources. And if he wanted to expand his territory towards a resource-rich area, he would have to face a Demon Overlord's territory.
If he wanted to plunder resources, he had to be careful. Even if he was once a 3rd Rank Heaven Rank powerhouse, he was only a Level 33 Demon now. Facing a Demon Overlord, the other side could kill him a few times with one slap.
Similarly miserable was Clombton. Holy light mages were heretics among heretics in the Abyss. A Low Tier Holy Light Spell could be sensed by a Demon Overlord over a hundred kilometers away.
Thus, Clombton could only abandon all holy light spells in the Abyss and switch to adapting to Demonic Spells. This was the greatest torture for a devout believer of the holy light.
Killing those Abyssal lifeforms didn't pose any pressure to Clombton, but the sinister abyssal power became the thing Clombton was most conflicted about.
After such a long time, the former 3rd Rank Heaven powerhouse had grasped the things he should have grasped at every stage like he understood his own body, but he had barely reached Level 30.
These people were a bit better, but Dubois was the most sullen. The others had all reincarnated as Demons, while only Dubois had reincarnated as an Abyssal Magic Beast.
Because this was the only Abyssal lifeform with lightning power he could find after reincarnating. If it wasn't a Demon, seizing territory in the Abyss was simply a joke.
If a magic beast wanted its own territory and had a huge army to help it wage wars and plunder resources, unless that magic beast was a Magic Beast Overlord, the lifeforms of the Abyss wouldn't be as loyal to a magic beast as they were to a Demon.
After all, the Abyss was a Demon's territory. Dubois wanted to occupy that territory and start a war to plunder resources, but he quickly paid the price for his recklessness.
The territory he invaded was the territory of a Purple-Eyed Lesser Demon Overlord. After finding out that it was a Thunder Eagle, that Level 39 Purple-Eyed Demon personally made a move.
Then, Dubois had a new identity, the flying mount of a Purple-Eyed Lesser Demon Overlord.
In order to survive, Dubois, who had just reached Level 30, could only obediently act as a Purple-Eyed Demon Overlord's mount. Even if that mount was only in name, he had never fulfilled the duties of a mount since he followed the Purple-Eyed Lesser Demon Overlord.
After getting rid of all the Lesser Demon Overlord's mounts, the Demon Overlord didn't get angry. Instead, he started looking at Dubois seriously and a large amount of mana crystals and all kinds of Energy Crystals started being delivered to Dubois.
After all, as the only mount of an Overlord, and a fierce mount that was deeply loved by the Overlord, how could a mere Level 30 be enough? All kinds of things that could increase Dubois' level were delivered to Dubois in carts.
This time, Dubois' level started rapidly increasing, and he was thoroughly resigned to his fate. In any case, he only needed to be a mount in name, and he could obtain a huge amount of resources that he couldn't obtain. As long as he advanced to Level 40, he would be able to leave the Abyss.
After figuring this out, Dubois obediently stayed in the steel fort, pretending to be a stupid but fierce Abyssal Magic Beast.
In the distant volcanoes, Didala's Incarnation as a Small Flame Demon had already evolved into a Flame Demon. Unfortunately, he wasn't a pureblood Flame Demon, but seizing territory in the several thousand kilometers of volcanoes had become a lot easier.
He didn't need to gather an Abyssal Army if he fancied that place, he only needed to rush over and get rid of the owner of that territory. Then, all the other lifeforms in that territory would automatically offer a large amount of resources to the new Overlord.
This desert in the northernmost part of the Abyss was filled with high temperature and endless desert. Slythrin, who had reincarnated there, wanted to take advantage of this opportunity to look for Lin Yun and settle his grudge. He even thought of taking advantage of this opportunity to get rid of a few Beastmen and hostile human mages.
Unfortunately, in this endless desolate area, battles were happening all the time. Fighting for resources already took up all his energy and he simply didn't have time to leave this desolate desert to look for his enemies.
A Demon without his own territory casually intruding into another Demon's territory would be treated as an invasion. The thought of looking for enemies all over the world would go bankrupt as soon as it was born.
The entrance leading to the next layer of the Abyss was in the well-connected underground world. There was a Black Dragon Overlord guarding the entrance and it was impossible to cross it easily.
As for the passage leading to the next layer of the Abyss, there were two. Unfortunately, they were both controlled by two Bronze Demon Overlords that were equivalent to 3rd Rank Heaven Mages.
With the current rank of humans and Beastmen, they wouldn't even be able to be swatted to death by these two Bronze Demon Overlords.
If they wanted to plunder resources, they could only fight over territory with other Demons in this world.
Another hundred sunrises and sunsets. In this chaotic Abyss, new Demon Overlords appeared one after another and their reputations started spreading.
The war between Lin Yun and that Lesser Demon Overlord was still going on. They weren't in a hurry to fight for territory, they were in a war of attrition.
Every day, a large number of Abyssal lifeforms would die on the battlefield. Then, even more Abyssal lifeforms would be sent to the battlefield. Almost all the Abyssal lifeforms in Lin Yun's territory had been forcibly subdued and sent to the battlefield.
After a large number of sacrifices, many Abyssal lifeforms started having other thoughts. After all, this was no longer a war, it was simply throwing away their lives.
But this sign had yet to appear when a few new Low Rank Bloodline Demons appeared and all the Abyssal lifeforms went crazy.
This was because these new low-rank Abyss Devils had all just activated their Abyss Devil bloodlines and turned into Abyss Devils.
Almost all lifeforms in the Abyss had Demonic Bloodlines. The only difference was the amount of Demonic Bloodline they had. Some Abyssal lifeforms didn't even have a thousandth of their Demonic Bloodline. With this kind of thin bloodline, they wouldn't be able to awaken their Demonic Bloodline until they died.
But as long as they had Demonic Bloodline, Lin Yun's Mana Water could frantically strengthen this thin bloodline. Once the bloodline was strengthened to a certain degree, the Demonic Bloodline would automatically awaken.
Awakening their Demonic Bloodline was the dream of all Abyssal lifeforms.
These newly appeared Low Rank Bloodline Demons had survived a month of bitter war. The only ones who survived were bestowed Mana Water by Lin Yun, awakening their thin Demonic Bloodline.
Then, something crazy happened. A large number of sacrifices and deaths occurred every day, but it didn't stop the crazy enthusiasm of these Abyssal lifeforms.
Just like that, Lin Yun's subordinates used their lives to forcibly snatch back a large amount of territory. That Lesser Bone Demon Overlord was stunned by their crazy actions. He had never seen such a suicidal campaign.
That kind of snatched territory would be annexed by other Overlords due to their weak power.
After over a hundred battles, close to half of that Lesser Overlord's territory was annexed by Lin Yun. As for Lin Yun's army, after sacrificing a large number of Abyssal lifeforms, the scale of the army actually increased.
By the time Lin Yun used Abyssal materials to craft the Abyssal Puppets, it was a one-sided suppression.
On a scorched black plain, a two-kilometer-long steel fort towered. This was the fort controlled by the Lesser Bone Demon Overlord.
Everything in the fort's construction was cast from scorched black steel, and the Bone Demon especially liked that kind of ice-cold aura.
In the center of the fort, within that huge demonic hinterland, the two-meter-tall Bone Demon was fidgeting as he sat on his bone throne.
Demonic lifeforms of all shapes and sizes were sitting on two rows of ice-cold Magic Iron chairs. At this moment, the commanders of these forts were all lowering their heads, not daring to say anything. They all looked like Gargoyles in a petrified state.
"Fools, a group of fools, how come no one is saying anything? Could it be that you are all mute from the poison?
"That arrogant Flame Demon has already occupied half of my territory. I don't know how many Demons are laughing in front of me now.
"You fools, could it be that none of you have a solution? "We clearly won, so how could my territory be occupied by the other side?
"Damnit, you fools that should have drowned in lava when you were born, have you forgotten to give me an explanation?"
The irascible Bone Demon's ears kept emitting black smoke. A Strength Demon below him stuttered as he tried to explain.
"Sir Overlord, we really have no way to resist that Flame Demon …"
But before he could finish his sentence, a thick bone pierced through his head from his mouth, forever blocking his next words.
"Stupid guy, that's not what I want to hear."
The Bone Demon spat out black smoke, his ice-cold eyes sweeping over the group of Demons below him like a knife.
Then, a Goat-Horned Demon wiped his cold sweat.
"Sir Overlord, I already dispatched a Banshee to investigate. That Demon is a pureblood Flame Demon.
"Although it is said that he is only level 35, he is a pureblood Flame Demon. Sir, you should know that although pureblood Flame Demons don't care about those with impure bloodlines and would even get rid of some of them from time to time, there are very few pureblood Flame Demons.
But pure-blooded Demons were rare, and those that could be thrown here were definitely valued.
"The best way is to get rid of that pureblood Flame Demon." But we still don't know which Flame Demon Overlord's descendant that pureblood Flame Demon is, and how important he is to that Flame Demon Overlord.
"If we provoke a Flame Demon Overlord that doesn't care about the rules of the Abyss, and that Flame Demon Overlord has been in a bad mood recently, we might have provoked a big problem.
"I have already sent a lot of gifts to that Sir in the Magic Iron Main Peak, and I believe we will soon receive news about which Flame Demon Overlord sent his descendant to our layer. After all, that guy has the inheritance of an Abyssal Spellcaster, and he seems to be related to those iron puppets of the lower layer. There are many powerful iron puppets helping him …"
