Chapter 254

That night, under the effects of the Alchemy Ritual, the entire Adol Canyon was in chaos.

Countless monsters began to become violent, violent, and twisted under the influence of the ritual's mana. Some even completely lost control and entered a state of killing each other.

They were abnormally bloodthirsty. Every time they saw a monster, they would immediately pounce on it without hesitation.

They didn't recognize their kin, and even if they were of the same race, they would directly devour each other.

It was as if they had lost all control. Even if they were riddled with wounds, they wouldn't fall. Even if they were exhausted, they would forget themselves and fight crazily, completely disregarding their own safety.

What was more frightening was that every time they successfully killed their target, they would devour the target. Not only would they absorb the target's Mana and become stronger, but their bodies would also change. It was as if they had fused with the target they killed. They would either grow the target's arms and legs, or grow the target's eyeballs or even head, becoming extremely horrifying.

Not long after, the monsters in the Adol Canyon gradually turned into monsters that didn't look like anything. It was as if the bodies of various monsters had been pieced together, looking sinister and frightening.

However, there was no doubt that under the effects of the Alchemy Ritual, the more sinister and frightening these monsters became, the more powerful they would become.

Shien witnessed a Level-40 monster devouring a Level-30 monster. After absorbing its mana and growing a torso, its level instantly soared to 45.

And after such a Level-45 monster was eaten by a Level-60 monster, that monster's level also soared to 66.

Just like that, the monsters went berserk and devoured each other. While their numbers kept decreasing, more and more powerful monsters kept appearing.

Finally, when these monsters saw Shien and Ai Yi, they would also pounce on them with all their might.

However, compared to Shien, they seemed to be targeting Ai Yi more.

"Hmph!"

Ai Yi's beautiful little face sank. She snorted coldly, and a terrifying mana suddenly swept up from her body.

The mana first sent the attacking monsters flying like a shockwave, and then like an invisible meat grinder, it crushed them on the spot while they were still in the air, leaving only flesh and blood splattering everywhere.

"Does it have to be so bloody?" Shien was speechless. He couldn't help but ask Ai Yi, "By the way, why are they only coming for you?"

"Because I'm Demons." Ai Yi also coldly snorted, "Refining Devils, as the name implies, only the Devil Race and Devil Creatures can be refined. Only the Devil Race and Devil Creatures can be used as food for the Devils to complete their creation. Naturally, they will pounce on the Devil Race and Devil Creatures."

"I see." Shien understood, but he couldn't help asking, "Are you alright? Won't you be affected by the ritual? "

According to Ai Yi, this ritual should be specially targeted at the Demon Race and magical beasts. Then, as a Demon Race, wouldn't Ai Yi be very likely to be affected by the ritual and become a berserk monster that only eats her own kind and magical beasts?

"Demons" Ai Yi saw through Shien's thoughts and said faintly, "This is used to complete the ritual of the Demons. It won't have any effect on me, who is in my complete form."

With that, Ai Yi continued to walk forward.

Shien was relieved.

But …

"Used to complete the ritual of the Demons, it won't have any effect on this little girl, who is in her complete form …?"

Yep, I feel like this big boss has invisibly revealed a very scary setting.

Although at this point, Shien had almost guessed Ai Yi's identity, looking at this little girl who only knew how to sleep and pretend to be mature and steady, he really didn't want to admit that her background was so powerful and terrifying.

Most importantly, this little girl's background was so terrifying, but he didn't know how many times he had died in front of her. Could this be the legendary rhythm of brushing past the gates of hell several times without realizing it?

Does it have to be so scary?

But …

"Even if I can go back in time, I still want to take care of this little girl."

It can't be helped. Who asked her to be so cute and spicy?

Shien thought so.

"Hmm?"

Ai Yi, who was walking in front, felt her heart tighten and a chill run down her spine, as if something extremely unpleasant had happened.

"Is it an illusion?"

Ai Yi wrinkled her cute little nose.

"What are you waiting for? Let's continue walking! "

Shien didn't know all this. Looking at Ai Yi who had stopped walking, he said suspiciously.

"… Hmm, let's go."

Ai Yi didn't think about it anymore.

Let's deal with the things here first.

…

Just as Shien and Ai Yi continued to go deeper into the canyon, on the other side, in the deepest part of the canyon, there was a large group of people gathered.

Some of them wore luxurious equipment, and some were dressed like knights. Obviously, there were high and low statuses, and a large number of them looked like nobles.

At this moment, they were gathered at the edge of a vast lake.

The leader was a fierce-looking old man in his fifties. One look and anyone could tell that he was not to be trifled with.

The old man was looking coldly at the lake in front of him.

Over there, an extremely horrifying battle was taking place.

"Roar —!!!"

Accompanied by a terrifying roar that shook the heavens and earth, a huge monster that blotted out the sky fell into a frenzy and killed the monsters that were attacking it.

The monsters that besieged this terrifying monster were all deformed monsters. Impressively, they were monsters that had taken form under the Demon Refinement Ritual.

The Refined Demons fearlessly pounced towards the terrifying demon creature, but they were madly slaughtered by the terrifying demon creature. They turned into waves of magic power and blood that entered the terrifying demon creature's body.

Under such circumstances, the monster became even more berserk, but it also became more and more painful. Its roars were filled with anguish, as if it was resisting and rejecting something at the same time.

This caused the expressions of the nobles around the old man to change.

"That's terrifying …"

"It can actually use its consciousness to reject the mana and flesh that entered its body?"

"As expected of the terrifying monster that has occupied this place for 400 years."

The nobles were in an uproar.

Only the old man looked at everything coldly and said, "But it won't last much longer. It's only a matter of time before it becomes a refining monster."

When the most powerful Alchemy Demon took shape and devoured all the monsters in the Adol Canyon, the ritual would be considered a success.

At that time, the most perfect offering would be born and devoured by the young devil.

"Continue to lure more monsters or alchemists over."

The old man gave the order to the knights around him.

The knights received the order and left, leaving the old man to look at the nobles around him.

"How are things on your side? Have you not gotten rid of the sinner of the Elbeck family? "

The old man's voice was filled with coldness and a trace of bitter hatred.

A noble immediately spoke with a bitter expression.

"That bitch has the kingdom's guardian god by her side. It won't be easy to kill her."

Hearing this, the old man's fierce expression became even more intense.
