Little Overlord with Silver Spear was a bit unlucky; he was demonized by the Demon Qi of the Demon Race.

The only good news was that Players wouldn't become vassals of the Demon Race but instead retained their own thoughts.

At this moment, Little Overlord with Silver Spear's skin had turned dark red, and visible Demon Runes emerged on his body, looking as if they were alive, slowly pulsing beneath his skin.

He looked at the Demon Runes on his hand and lifted his head, saying, "I have to say, the bonuses from the Demon Race aren't too bad. My strength has increased at least twofold after Demonization!"

Junlin glanced at him and nodded slightly. "This must be the race selection introduced in the update. However, it seems you transformed unintentionally rather than deliberately aiming to become part of the Demon Race. By the way, to which race do you reckon you are now a vassal?"

"The Flame Demon Race."

Little Overlord with Silver Spear grinned and said, "My Fire Magic has also improved."

Flame Demons were a Demon Race that emerged from flames.

They have a natural affinity for fire; even those demonized could possess such fire Talents.

Upon hearing this, Old Mo curiously stared at the Demon Race corpses nearby.

These demons seemed to have various abilities, aligning with their Five Elements Technique.

Perhaps this could be the key to boosting their power.

"I'd quite like to become a member of the Strength Demon Race. I feel their robust bodies could let my Eight Gates Escape Armor last longer."

Old Mo's words had also attracted the attention of others. They, too, held different preferences in their hearts, especially since the demonized Little Overlord with Silver Spear was now considered their second most powerful fighter.

Even Junlin might not quite measure up to the demonized Little Overlord with Silver Spear.

It had to be said, the bonuses from Demonization were indeed very strong.

"We must continue killing. We need to determine the number of demons in the Hundred Thousand Great Mountains and thoroughly identify all the Demon Races." Junlin, holding the Black Dragon Dagger, rose and said, "Continue advancing! We'll stick to the brute force charge formation. Little Overlord, you and your team will kite. Make sure to protect those behind us."

They had managed to get this far entirely thanks to their tactics.

Although the Demon Race members were strong, most of them operated alone.

Encountering anyone from Lingxiao Hall meant certain death for them.

That was how Junlin and his team had been able to explore all the way to the Hundred Thousand Great Mountains.

Based on the intelligence they currently possessed, the Hundred Thousand Great Mountains were the domain of the Soul Race, and the Demon Race had also emerged from there.

They needed to quickly understand the situation here and then try to return as soon as possible.

...

「Next Day.」

Xu Nian stretched lazily as he climbed out of bed. He looked at Yi Lin, the tired Blood Demoness beside him, realizing he might have gone too far the night before.

Sometimes, putting too much effort can be counterproductive.

After dressing and washing up using Water Element Spells, he stood at the entrance of the Great Hall, looking outside.

Players had also gradually logged on in twos and threes. Since there were no major Tasks recently, they could only hunt Demonic Beasts and battle the Sea Race.

Seeing the somewhat idle Players, Xu Nian decided it was time to train them properly.

They couldn't afford to let the Players slack off. There had been no news from the Southern Continent, and it seemed like the Great Dream Immortal Sect didn't plan to cooperate with them. This was rather disappointing. That old man, Meng Fenggu, was rather unscrupulous; he actually wanted to swallow both the Demon Race and Soul Race whole, leaving no chance for others to advance. That old man is truly wicked! As for the people from Lingxiao Hall, they sent messages daily. They had now reached the borders of the Hundred Thousand Great Mountains and had hunted many members of the Demon Race. The only bad news was that Little Overlord with Silver Spear had been demonized. It seemed it was time to initiate some Tasks.

Just then, familiar figures emerged from the entrance of the Gathering Sun Hall.

Junlin? Sister Zhou? Neighbor Six?! What's happening? Didn't they say yesterday that the Demon Race was easy to handle and that they had entered the Hundred Thousand Great Mountains to continue exploring? And they've returned in just one night? Could it be they were discovered by the Demon Race while sleeping and then all sent into Reincarnation? No, that can't be right! Old Mo isn't among them, which means he hasn't died yet and is still in the Hundred Thousand Great Mountains in the Southern Continent!

"Junlin, why have you returned?" Xu Nian asked, puzzled. "How did the investigation into the Demon Race go?"

"Sect Leader, we underestimated the Demon Race's power," Junlin sighed and stepped forward to explain. "The Hundred Thousand Great Mountains are completely filled with the Demon Race; almost all of them, except for the Royal Family, have arrived.

The outskirts of the Hundred Thousand Great Mountains are full of lower-Realm demons, whom we can easily clear out. But the deeper we go, the more powerful the Demon Race experts become.

Just considering the Nascent Soul Realm demons, there are at least tens of thousands of them. It was these Nascent Soul Realm demons who sent us into Reincarnation.

Even deeper in, there are more powerful demons. Old Mo is still alone in the Hundred Thousand Great Mountains, so we were forced to return."

What the hell?! Tens of thousands of Nascent Soul Realm demons? Has the entire Demon Race truly come out in full force?

Xu Nian frowned slightly. He was silent for a moment, then asked, "Can you estimate how many demons there might be inside the Hundred Thousand Great Mountains?"

"Estimate?" Junlin hesitated for a moment, then replied, "At least over a hundred thousand. It seems the entire Demon Race has indeed come out in full force."

Good!

Xu Nian clapped his hands, and a smile formed on his lips.

The Demon Race coming out in full force means their defenses in the Eastern Region must be weak! The Demon Race invades the Southern Continent, so it's perfectly reasonable for my Profound Yellow Sect to invade your Demon Race territory, isn't it?
