Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Leaving the army to wait, Roy and Lilith spread their wings and flew to the center of the magma sea.

The magma sea, which covered an area of nearly ten thousand square kilometers, was quite huge. Although they didn’t deliberately increase their flying speed, it wasn’t until half an hour later that Roy and Lilith finally approached the center of the sea.

While flying over, Roy noticed sscattered islands on the magma sea. They were black islands formed by the cooled lava exposed on the surface of the sea and had stabilized in the constantly surging magma sea. The foundation of these islands was very solid, so the Hell demons had built forging workshops on these islands. Roy could see workshop-like forging tools on them. These were all places where demons used high-temperature lava to forge weapons. Read Web s Online Free - Fire Fire -

In addition to seeing these islands, he also saw sscattered souls flying around the magma sea. Needless to say, these souls were demon souls that had died in battle. The high temperature and dark power contained in the magma sea had been nourishing these souls and slowly healing them. In the beginning, there were very few of them, but the closer they were to the center of the magma sea, the more souls there were. Nᴇw ɴovel chaptᴇrs are published on ɴo(v)elFɪre.ɴet

“We’re here!” Lilith suddenly said.

Roy followed her line of sight and saw a giant black island on the bright orange magma sea. This island was as big as a city. At the edge of the island, boiling magma was constantly surging and bubbling before exploding. Red flames ignited in the air, making the entire island look like it was surrounded by flames.

After landing on the island, Roy was surprised to find that there were a large number of demon eggs scattered on the hot ground. These demon eggs were densely distributed on the ground, gullies, and hills. They were of all sizes, making his trypophobia almost act up.

The shapes of demon eggs were often different. Sshadow patterns formed by dark power were engraved on the demon eggs, and every pattern looked different. Sdemon eggs were completely silent and black like a rock, but swere pulsating, and there was even faint fiery red light inside seggshells. Every tthey lit up, he could see creatures wriggling inside the eggshells.

“This is… a hatchery?!” Roy said in shock. This familiar scene evoked his memories.

“Yes, it’s a hatchery!” Lilith nodded. “Although the demons of this world have been away from the Abyss for a long time, they still maintain the reproduction habits of demons! After female demons give birth to demon eggs, they will send them to this island.”

While listening to Lilith’s explanation, Roy looked at a soul floating above the island. After circling for a long time, this demon soul suddenly fell and found a demon egg that was pulsating very fast and about to hatch before entering. After a while, the demon egg broke open, and a strangely-shaped little demon emerged.

However, before the little demon could celebrate his new life, Lilith suddenly flicked her finger, and a blood-red blood bomb flew out and hit the little demon, instantly blowing him into pieces.

Roy understood and asked Lilith, “Are these demon eggs actually for the resurrection of dead demons who died in battle?”

“Most of them!” Lilith nodded. “Unlike angels who can use light elements to form their bodies, most demons are still accustomed to flesh and blood bodies… After all, this isn’t the Abvss, and there’s no Purple Moon. Althouzh the dark power of the Hellforge is abundant, it can’t help them condense bodies, so the souls that have finished nourishing and recovering here will choose to possess the souls in the demon eggs to obtain new flesh and blood bodies for themselves. ”

“In other words, it’s actually very difficult for demon newborns in the Burning Hells to be born naturally?” Roy asked.

“Very few!” Lilith said. “Demons who reincarnate through borrowed bodies grow up especially quickly because they retain their original memories, and it’s often very difficult for little demons born naturally to grow up. Because the Eternal War requires a lot of combat forces, demons tend to use this method to maintain the number of troops. Over time, no one pays attention to the naturally born little demons.”

“If this continues, it’ll be very disadvantageous for demons, right?” Roy frowned. “The strength of demons lies in continuous adaptation and evolution. This possession method should make it very difficult for the body to evolve beneficially…”

“Yes, so for millions of years, the demons of this world haven’t made much progress in their combat methods!” Lilith sighed. “They’ve already lost the possibility of evolution. To me, who has mastered the authority of reproduction, this is a very sad thing. That’s why I wanted to create a new species…”

Roy looked at Lilith. From these words, he could tell that the survival and evolution of species should be within her reproduction authority. Lilith had actually been trying many possibilities. She didn’t place all her hopes on the nephalem, and she was actually paying attention to the demons themselves.

Therefore, strictly speaking, Lilith’s thoughts didn’t have any inclination, which explained why she was now enemies with demons despite being a demon herself.

The situation on this island’s hatchery reminded Roy of the seven demon kings. After escaping from the Black Soulstone, they should have recovered their strength here. They had probably chosen one or several demon newborns with powerful potential from thousands of demon eggs to possess and thus obtained a new body. But they couldn’t use these new bodies directly and had to wait for them to grow, so they didn’t show up much after Roy descended and during the early stages of his attack on the High Heavens. At the time, they should have been waiting to recover their original strength.

“What about this hatchery? Destroy it?” Roy asked. “This should be where the shadow crystal is, right?”

“To be precise, a portion of this island is the shadow crystal!” Lilith said. “The shadow crystal is massive. Here, a small part of it is exposed on the surface of the magma sea. As long as you break the island’s crust, you can see the crystal.” “Letdo it!” Roy nodded and took a few steps forward while Lilith silently retreated.

Roy also had the magic power circuit of the earth element in his body, but he hadn’t used it much. But it was the easiest to use earth magic to break the crust on this island.

He found a weak spot in the crust, raised his foot, and stomped hard. The next moment, an immense amount of magic power poured into the ground. With his stomp as the center, giant waves immediately rose on the ground!

The shock wave, which was comparable to a magnitude 12 earthquake, quickly spread throughout the island. As the ground shook, the ground formed by hard magma was torn apart and collapsed, revealing the boiling magma below. All the hills on the island wailed, and the magma wrapped in pressure inside the hills erupted, forming small volcanic eruptions one after another.

Countless demon eggs rolled into the sea of flames and slowly melted under the high temperature. Poisonous gases radiated everywhere, and the island was enveloped by thick dust and smoke before gradually disintegrating.

After a long time, when the smoke and dust slowly dissipated, a strangely-shaped black crystal gradually revealed itself.

If Anu’s spine crystal of the High Heavens looked like a tooth, then the shadow crystal (Tathamet Crystal) in the Burning Hells looked like… a finger bone!

Although this island was only a very small part of the crystal, Roy could barely make it out a little. Near the surface of the sea, he saw an obvious dividing line on the crystal. This mark was extremely similar to the structure of a bone gap. The reason why he judged it as a finger bone was that, in his perception, the crystal under the magma sea was slender, so the possibility of a finger bone was extremely high.

The entire shadow crystal, including the part below the magma sea, was conservatively estimated to be more than two thousand meters tall and more than a thousand meters wide.

“Does this crystal cfrom the sbody as the one in the High Heavens?” Roy asked in puzzlement. “Even though he’s a world-soul titan, wasn’t he afraid of exploding when he condensed two different powers in the sbody?”

Lilith glared at him. “Then, did the light and dark powers in your body conflict? Did you explode?”

“I just find it strange!” Roy said. “At the stime, he had the ultimate power of light and dark. Even after he died, parts of his body could evolve into two different worlds. Such a titan should be extraordinary, right? How did he die?”

“I can’t answer you because I don’t know either!” Lilith shook her head. “I cant see the original history of this world. It has been submerged for too long, and I can only roughly judge that the creation god of this world was indeed a

world-soul titan.”

“Speaking of which, what kind of race are titans?” Roy suddenly remembered and asked, “I’ve cinto contact with the so-called creation gods of several worlds, and they all seem to have the shadow of titans. So, what’s the difference between these so-called creation gods and the so-called Creator?”

“The Creator was the first and only one at the beginning!” Lilith said expressionlessly. “In the beginning, the Creator createdand then angels and demons. We are the first batch of eldest children. At that time, the Creator was already beginning his Infinite Worlds Project. But then he found that it was a little difficult to create a prosperous Infinite Worlds alone, so he later created titans and dragons.

“Angels are to help the Creator maintain the stable worlds he created, and demons are responsible for destroying the failed worlds,” Lilith continued. “But these two races don’t have the function and authority of creation, so after creating the titans, the Creator gave a portion of the authority and function of creation to the titans and made them his assistants. This is why the titans have the authority of creation. As for the dragons, the Creator made them assthe role of guardians.”

“I see…” Roy understood. “In other words, to the Creator, you’re his secretary, the angels are his butlers, the demons are his goons, and the titans are his assistants! As for the dragons… they’re his guards and pets. Is that what it means?”

‘ Lilith looked at Roy without saying a word, revealing a speechless expression for the first tsince he knew her.

Although Roy’s description… was indeed right, why did the feeling of classiness instantly disappear?
