Swoosh!

As a gust of cold wind blew over her, the Black-Horned Demon Natalie opened her eyes slowly and shook her head helplessly. Upon seeing the scars on her body and inspecting her internal injuries, her expression turned sad. Her lovely face was very pale, and her long snow-white robe was bloodstained. Her pretty hair was draped messily over her shoulders, and her eyes were spiritless. She seemed very haggard!

Pitch-black walls, bone-chilling cold wind, and deadly silence.

As Natalie observed the dungeon, which had remained the same for several hundred years, her heart shivered. For the past several hundred years, she had pondered all possible escape methods, yet she still couldn’t find a way to leave, nor could she see the outside world or hear its noises. She couldn’t even detect the outside world’s energy. The injuries in her body hadn’t recovered at all in several hundred years, and her body’s state only worsened with every passing year. It was impossible for her to recover her peak state’s power.

“What is this place? Could it be that this is the God Prison mentioned in the legends?”

Natalie’s eyes, which were previously pretty and charming, were covered by an inextinguishable haze. As she observed the cold walls, which were covered with mysterious symbols, and sensed the unfathomable and obscure Energy Ripples here, despair and a feeling of weakness welled up in her heart, and some ancient legends ran across her mind.

A long time ago, when she was still a carefree little demon, she met the traveling Abyssal Demon Lord in a boundless grassland. They met under a blue sky filled with clouds and atop the lush grass. She spent many romantic and passionate nights with Kansas, and she heard about many affairs unknown to others. This included the God Prison in the Boundless Sea.

In the depths of the Boundless Sea, there was a state called the God Prison. It was said that the ultimate mysteries of the high-level Worldly Laws and Fate Laws were hidden there, and if one could comprehend a Supreme Law’s ultimate mystery, he would become a Supreme Ruler. This place had a great allure to peerless powerhouses, and many experts entered it over the years. But she still had never heard about anyone who managed to comprehend a Supreme Law’s ultimate mystery, and she also never heard about anyone who managed to become a new Ruler.

It was difficult to enter the God Prison, and leaving it was even more difficult.

After going inside of it, even a Dimension Wanderer couldn’t manage to escape unless the Supreme Ruler allowed him to leave. But there was no free lunch in the world, and one had to pay a grave price to ask the Supreme Ruler to help him. Even now, Natalie still clearly remembered the grave expression the Abyssal Demon Lord Kansas had worn, and she also clearly remembered that he’d warned her repeatedly against entering the Boundless Sea.

“Kansas, where are you?”

Upon thinking about Kansas, who’d taught her the way to practice, Natalie’s eyes filled with tears, and she couldn’t help but think about his bright smile and stiff beard. To this day, she still didn’t know what had happened. When she opened her eyes, she found herself again in this dark dungeon, and she couldn’t find a way to leave, even after racking her brain for several hundred years. But if Kansas were here, he would surely have a way to get out.

Natalie was full of confidence in the Abyssal Demon Lord, Kansas, and she placed all of her hopes for escape on him. She believed that Kansas would one day find her, and she also believed that even if she was still imprisoned in the God Prison, Kansas would rush inside decisively to save her. In the tragic Gods and Devils War, Kansas wouldn’t have sustained heavy injuries if she hadn’t encumbered him.

“Well, that isn’t right.” The dispirited and sad Black-Horned Demon had been indulging in flights of fancy and hadn’t detected the air’s peculiarities. Her body sustained heavy injuries and her power dropped down greatly. This was why even her Divine Consciousness and senses had become much less sharp than before. By the time she discovered that something was fishy, it was already too late.

“Who is stronger: the Wandering Divine Beast, the Golden Roc, or the Black-Horned Demon at her peak power?”

After Yang Ling waited patiently for an hour and ascertained that the Black-Horned Demon Natalie was unconscious, he extinguished the remaining Soul Robbing Incense and walked prudently toward the Black-Horned Demon laying on the ground. He sat cross-legged next to her and took out several bottles of Life Spring’s water, as well as a large pile of Magical Beasts’ Blood Orbs. He made ample preparations, then he recited a Wizard Incantation, took out some Blood Essence, and smeared it between Natalie’s brows.

Sizzle!

The Blood Essence, which contained a large amount of energy, let out a sizzling noise and slowly seeped into the target’s body. But even after he waited for a long time, it didn’t seem like she was tamed, and there was no response.

“Could it be that the Wizard Power and Mental Energy contained in the Blood Essence isn’t enough?” Yang Ling furrowed his brows and shed several drops of Blood Essence. He wouldn’t give up until the last moment. Taming an Ancient Devil God would have great influence over the whole Magical Beast Army, and its power would be increased exponentially.

1 drop, 2 drops…

Yang Ling gnashed his teeth and persisted. He increased his domestication efforts and devoured a large number of Magical Beasts’ Blood Orbs and Life Spring’s water to replenish his consumed Wizard Power and Mental Energy. But his replenishment speed couldn’t keep up with his consumption, and it still didn’t seem like the Black-Horned Demon Natalie was tamed. Instead, it seemed like she craved the energy contained within the Blood Essence, and the state of her injuries quickly took a turn for the better. The more Yang Ling delayed this matter, the more disadvantageous it would be to him

“Amazing! Is this an Ancient Devil God’s power?” Upon discerning that he couldn’t achieve this task, Yang Ling was forced to give up. If he persisted further, he would probably become a withered mummy. This was why he snorted and bore intense pain to forcefully stop the Wizard Spell. Soon after, he drank the last half-filled bottle of the Life Spring’s water and quickly replenished his exhausted Wizard Power and Mental Energy.

“Why don’t I turn her into a puppet?”

After a long while, Yang Ling opened his eyes and observed the Black-Horned Demon, who possessed formidable abilities. She was heavily injured and unconscious, yet he still couldn’t tame her. He couldn’t help but think of another solution that was different than domestication. If he turned the Black-Horned Demon into a puppet, he could absorb her soul and seize her memory. But this plan’s flaws were very obvious. The Black-Horned Demon would lose some of her abilities after becoming a puppet, and she wouldn’t get to make any more progress in her whole life. She wouldn’t be able to achieve another breakthrough in her practice.

Until now, Yang Ling hadn’t crafted any puppets, other than several experimental specimens. He didn’t want to turn the powerful Magical Beasts into cold puppets. In his eyes, valiant generals with flesh and blood had greater adaptation ability, as well as more potential. They were much better than puppets who couldn’t think for themselves. If he turned the Corpse Wizard King, Dark Dragon King, and other beasts into puppets, the Magical Beast Army wouldn’t have gotten so many God-Level Experts.

“I can probably discuss this with the Black-Horned Demon one day to discern her intentions. If that is out of the question, then I just have to wait until I become a Wizard God and tame her.” After Yang Ling pondered this for a moment, he quickly made up his mind. He wasn’t currently able to tame an Ancient Devil God like Natalie, but this didn’t mean that he wouldn’t be able to do so later. If he absorbed enough energy and comprehended further abstruse Wizard Spells, he might get to become a Wizard God. At that time, it wouldn’t be too late for him to try to tame the Black-Horned Demon again.

Yang Ling looked at the Black-Horned Demon’s long brows and haggard face. He really didn’t want to turn her into a cold, machine-like puppet, and the crux of the problem was that she still had a close relationship with the Abyssal Demon Lord, Kansas. If he tamed the Black-Horned Demon, he would get a chance to ally himself with the powerful Abyssal Demon Lord, or even have her use pillow talk to pull Kansas into their camp. But, if he turned the Black-Horned Demon into a puppet, the Abyssal Demon Lord would surely become their mortal enemy, and they would enter a blood feud with a powerful peerless powerhouse.

“No one is allowed to approach this dungeon without my permission.”

After Yang Ling made up his mind, he turned around to leave and issued this order to the ogre guards. Later, he would hand over the Giant Dragon Mountain Range’s capture mission to the Magical Beast Commander, the Corpse Wizard King, so he could either go on a scenic tour with Sofia and Yuna or practice in seclusion. He would calmly await news from the Flying Dragon King Seylius and the Golden Roc.

Time went by in a flash, and a month quickly passed.

The Magical Beast Army, commanded by the Corpse Wizard King, made steady progress, and it advanced step by step. They gradually annexed the Giant Dragon Domain’s population, land, crystal mines, and other resources. They also repelled the enemies’ attacks and harassment operations. Meanwhile, the scouts had already transmitted intelligence about the Giant Dragon Domain and the whole Giant Dragon Mountain Range, and they’d gotten a large amount of intelligence. There were many experts practicing in seclusion in the Giant Dragon Mountain Range, but they usually had just an apex High-Level Deity’s power, and there weren’t any great factions or peerless powerhouses that could pose a threat to the Magical Beast Army.

The best occasion for taking over the whole Giant Dragon Mountain Range with a swift attack was near at hand.

In the evening, the Golden Roc rode the wind and came back. He reported his trip’s results briefly, and he held several Godheads that contained a large amount of energy in his hand. “Lord, I have toured carefully every corner of the Giant Dragon Mountain Range in the past month, and I didn’t find any threat other than several people with a High-Level Divine Duty Expert’s power.”

Several people with a High-Level Divine Duty Expert’s power?

Upon seeing the few Godheads in the Golden Roc’s hands and detecting the large energy contained within them, the Corpse Wizard King, Ophelia, and the others were left at a loss for words. In ordinary people’s eyes, Divine Duty Experts were lofty beings, yet they weren’t even worth mentioning in the eyes of the Golden Roc. He was a Wandering Divine Beast, and he really was amazing.

“Good, very good. Rodriguez, we will carry out the operation tomorrow morning, and we will attack the Giant Dragon Castle directly.” The Golden Roc was playing with the Godheads in his hands, but Yang Ling put away those Godheads before he issued an order in a deep voice. They had already ascertained the Giant Dragon Mountain Range’s situation, and he didn’t have to hesitate any longer. He planned to create a larger Magical Beast Domain in the Giant Dragon Mountain Range, at the highest speed possible.
