But in truth, Herag felt that he was just an empty shell now and not as powerful as he appeared.
He felt that at most he could tussle with Level 5 creatures, but when facing Level 6 creatures, it certainly wouldn't work.
Herag was currently in a state with a potentially high ceiling, but due to lack of energy, he couldn't wield much power, merely seeming intimidating.
After the dark elves left, Herag entered the ranch and saw the life crystals piled around.
With a wave of his hand, he took all the life crystals into the small plane.
After taking these things, he left directly without staying long.
In the next instant, Herag appeared in a secluded bush a hundred kilometers away from the ranch.
As soon as he appeared, the demons around were startled and quickly fled in all directions.
Herag frowned. He still wasn't good at restraining his aura.
Entering the true form, due to the strong aura and power, Herag couldn't fully control it for a while, leading to aura leakage.
This was unavoidable, purely a matter of mastery over power, needing time to adapt.
Herag scanned his surroundings; there were no foolish demons looking for trouble.
He took out the collected life crystals, piling them into a mountain in front of him.
Herag opened his mouth, directly absorbing the mountain of life crystals into his body.
This massive energy quickly entered and nourished Herag's physique as it was absorbed by his body.
As this energy was absorbed, Herag felt his body rapidly growing, quickly replenishing the void of bloodline power.
The power of the ancestral bloodline also unlocked and enhanced simultaneously, indirectly boosting Herag's strength swiftly.
At this point, Herag understood why his body wanted to devour these life crystals; the life vitality and bloodline power within were greatly beneficial to him.
He looked into the distance and saw the ranch.
This was the second ranch Squirrel Yom had told him about over here.
Originally, Herag planned to raid one ranch and leave, but after entering his true form, his speed was incredibly fast, and this distance was merely a blink.
Without hesitation, Herag appeared outside that ranch in the next instant.
Without any exceptions, even before Herag spoke, the dark elves were frightened and fled in all directions.
Only one dark elf, with injured wings and legs, could only crawl slowly on the ground due to difficulty moving.
At this moment, no other dark elves helped him; he was left crawling alone, trying to escape.
Herag ignored him, walked past him directly, entered the ranch, and took all the life crystals inside.
He left immediately after taking the things, leaving behind an empty ranch and the injured dark elf dumbfounded on the side.
Soon after, a group of dark elves, significantly larger than those at the ranch, with strong auras, arrived.
Especially the one leading, clad in armor and holding a silver-white knight's lance.
He looked at the dark elf on the ground and asked, "Where did the person go?"
The dark elf lying on the ground shook his head, "He disappeared directly, don't know which direction he went."
The dark elf knight sensed the residue aura here, a flicker of shock hidden in his eyes beneath the helmet.
He thought for a moment and said to the people behind him, "You all stay here and watch, I'll go check it out."
In the distance, Herag was devouring the life crystals, with his bloodline power once again enhanced.
After finishing absorption, he looked to one side and asked, "Is there something?"
The dark elf knight walked out and said, "May I ask who you are? Given your status, you could directly negotiate with our king if you need life crystals, rather than seizing them."
"Seizing? No, because I need them, so they are mine, I simply took what belongs to me," Herag stated.
"You..." The dark elf knight was momentarily at a loss for words, unable to counter.
In his view, Herag was evidently a being of extremely high stature, making these comments seemed reasonable.
The Abyss Plane is such a place, for these beings of noble blood, a dark elf ranch was simply theirs for the taking, without needing any reason.
"Thank you for your mercy, for not taking their lives," the dark elf knight thought for a moment, then bowed in gratitude.
Herag said nothing, then prepared to turn and leave.
This dark elf knight likely had strength between Level 5 and Level 6, yet dared not attack him.
Because he couldn't discern Herag's specific power, the aura was far too strong and very ancient.
Such an aura wasn't something any demon could possess, only those old ones held such ancient aura.
Therefore, even knowing Herag was weaker, the dark elf knight dared not attack.
Moreover, Herag only took the life crystals without harm to the dark elves in the ranch, even leaving the ranch intact.
For those of noble blood, this could be considered very high quality.
The dark elf knight watched as Herag vanished from the spot, choosing not to pursue.
His main task now was dealing with the people from the Red Forest, which had recently launched a fierce assault, exerting pressure on all sides.
Such aura from here forced him to come over and check.
Originally thinking it was someone from the Red Forest, it made him somewhat anxious.
Now it seemed it wasn't someone from the Red Forest, just a coincidence that they came to get some life crystals to consume.
After leaving, Herag looked in Squirrel Yom's direction, glanced at Yom, then moved on.
Yom sensed this gaze, nodded as if to bid farewell.
"Indeed, an ancient presence..." Even from such a distance, Squirrel Yom felt the aura emanating from Herag, feeling grateful for not having acted rudely earlier.
Otherwise, not only himself but the whole Red Forest might suffer.
It seemed he did well, as the other party even greeted him before leaving, which was good news.
After leaving, Herag vanished from the Red Forest region in a few flashes, then entered the small plane.
The urgent issue for him now was to perfectly control his aura.
Otherwise, wherever he went, he'd be as conspicuous as the sun in the sky.
Though he hadn't encountered trouble yet, should he meet a big shot, it would be troublesome, so he needed to solve this problem swiftly.
