Two days later.
Forbidden Area No. 5.
Blood filled the entire forbidden area. The sky was obscured by dark clouds, and a surging ocean of blood kept flowing across the forbidden area.
Countless demons were prostrated deep in Forbidden Area No. 5. These demons came in all shapes and forms.
Some were as huge as colossal beasts, while others were as ethereal as ghosts. Each one exuded a terrifying and malicious aura.
However, at this moment, they all trembled and raised their heads, excitedly looking at the figure standing in the sky.
It was a majestic figure wrapped in a stream of blood-colored air.
He seemed to be clad in blood-red armor, and an endless killing intent emanated from his body.
The surrounding space began to tremble due to the overwhelming power.
Gu Yan closed his eyes and took a deep breath.
As he breathed, the surrounding demons seemed to be pulled by an invisible force and moved towards him one by one.
Inside his body, Zhazha tirelessly devoured all the valuable demons in the forbidden area.
He whispered softly, as if reciting an ancient incantation: "Converge, devour, fuse."
With each word, the demons began to transform. Their bodies twisted and disintegrated, and finally turned into streams of black-red smoke that continuously flowed towards Gu Yan.
This process was terrifying, but the demons were extremely excited.
Their roars and screams echoed in the air. As the power converged, a huge black vortex formed around Gu Yan's body. The powerful suction force was irresistible to more demons, and they all rushed into it one after another.
Gu Yan's body seemed to be the center of a black hole, and endless power converged, collided, and fused within him.
His face became more and more distinct in the darkness. Under the blood-red armor, instead of the eyes of a normal species, there were... a pair of divine eyes emitting a black-red glow.
At the high tower in the forbidden area.
Two figures were watching all this.
A silver giant wolf and a humanoid demon wearing strange-patterned clothes.
Wang Yulan looked up at the Nether King standing in the sky, constantly devouring demons. Her expression was solemn, and her hands were tightly clenched.
It was so terrifying. Even from such a distance, she could still feel the chilling pressure coming from the other side.
Is this... the king of demons?
Seeing this, the silver giant wolf beside her showed excitement in its eyes.
Yinyue knelt and lay at the high tower, whispering softly: "Lan, this is one of the abilities of our king.
"He can gain more powerful strength by devouring other species.
"In the past, all our clan members turned into the king's power and fought together."
Hearing this.
Wang Yulan looked at Yinyue: "You volunteered to be devoured?"
Yinyue proudly raised its head upon hearing this: "It is our honor to become the power of the king.
"Of course, in the end, the king will liberate our souls and place them in newly created bodies."
After hearing this, Wang Yulan silently nodded.
Since she merged with the spirit of the Flower God and became a demon in a new form.
She also learned about the Nether King in the forbidden area.
For example... the ability of the other side to easily control the lives and deaths of others.
Storing souls in his body and then liberating them when the right time comes.
The physical body is just a shell that can be replaced at any time. As long as the soul is immortal, one can live forever.
If so...
There was a glimmer of excitement in Wang Yulan's heart.
Could her mother... be resurrected by this means?
It's just that there was one thing Wang Yulan wasn't clear about, and that was whether her mother's soul... was still in this world?
...
...
On Gu Yan's side, the grand spectacle gradually subsided.
The two-day-long devouring was over.
[Congratulations! Zhazha has devoured 19,999 demons...]
[Congratulations! Zhazha has obtained the ability 'Demon Domination'!]
[Demon Domination: Can influence all demons weaker than oneself in the world and make them submit.]
[Congratulations! Zhazha has obtained a new ability: Flame Breath!]

[Congratulations! Zhazha has obtained a new ability: Shadow Sneak!]

[Congratulations! Zhazha has obtained a new ability: Counterattack!]
[Congratulations! Zhazha has obtained...................]
[Zhazha covers the host, and the host can also obtain equal strength and use its abilities!!]
The system's prompt sound rang in Gu Yan's mind.
He closed his eyes and felt the newly acquired abilities.
In his consciousness, there seemed to be a huge net connecting all the devoured demons.
He could feel their excitement, anger, fear, and even their memories and abilities.
After this devouring.
Gu Yan's strength had improved by more than one level compared to before.
With a thought.
Hum!
His figure turned into a shadow and disappeared into the air in an instant.
The power of the night should be used as little as possible.
Then... the second alternative method Gu Yan thought of.
Was to obtain the power of demons by devouring them.
This way of moving was almost the same as the way of moving with the power of the night.
It only consumed a little true qi.
Swish!
His figure flashed and he arrived at the tower.
"Your Majesty the King!"
Yinyue lowered its head, with a very respectful and excited tone.
It could feel that the Nether King had become more powerful than before.
Wang Yulan placed her hand on her chest and bowed slightly.
Since she had become a demon and needed the power of the Nether King.
Then... she was willing to do such things.
Gu Yan was now wearing the Nether Armor, and the malicious aura unique to demons emanated from his body.
He glanced at Wang Yulan.
He said in a deep voice: "You've changed your name to Lan? Does this mean you're ready to completely abandon your human identity?"
Wang Yulan paused for a moment upon hearing this, then nodded calmly: "Yes."
After becoming a demon, Wang Yulan changed her name to 'Lan'.
"Okay."
Gu Yan didn't dwell on this point anymore and continued: "The world has changed greatly.
"The Divine Dragon and the Black Tortoise have fallen.
"Two of the Four Divine Beasts are dead.
"The one who did it... is the Night King."

. As long as he maintains the villain image and follows the plot to the grand finale, he can obtain generous rewards and return to the real world. So Gu Chen'an entered the role and began to act as a scumbag villain, but who would have expected that the female leads could hear his inner thoughts. Miss Su from the Su family was shocked: "I originally thought Gu Chen'an was a scumbag, but I didn't expect he turned out to be a gentleman! What? You said I have to call off the engagement? I definitely won't, I'll piss you off!" Bai Yuan Tian was dumbfounded: "Young Master Gu is usually unreasonable and a complete brat, but he actually calls me little sweetie in his heart? What, Young Master Gu even said he likes me?" As the female leads' images collapsed more and more, the plot also collapsed with it. Gu Chen'an looked at all this chaos. "Ladies, don't aggro me, if you keep this up the male lead really will stab me, I still need to survive to the grand finale!"
