A Demon's Journey

Chapter 237 - Attacking The Fort

Azaroth had already given a general outline of what Patrick was supposed to do. For now, this was going to be more than enough.

He was more focused on observing the training of these origin sect disciples. He wasn't personally interacting with them since he wanted Noah and Laura to continue building their prestige.

It was going to be especially important for Noah to build his prestige among these proud disciples. After all, a month later was TheHeavenly Dragon Battlefield Tournament, and Azaroth wanted Noah to take part in that tournament.

This was going to be a pretty important tournament presided by the Prime Minister of this Kingdom.

Unlike normal tournaments, each participant was to come along with 30 subordinates. They would be judged collectively and individually.

These participants would face each other. They would receive ranks depending on how they fared in the tournament.

The top 3 participants would be assigned important cultivation resources and an official position in the Glerian Kingdom's Army.

'The position in the Glerian Kingdom's Army would be useful. If Noah can grab hold of it, it would make it easier for me to control the Glerian Kingdom's movements during their war against the Sinyalian Kingdom.'

Azaroth looked at Laura, who was rather motivated to fight against the demons these days. It had been the case since their relationship became intimate.

At the least, it wasn't a mistake to have a physical relationship with her. The benefits had far outweighed the demerits.

Before Azaroth even realized it, another week passed.

During this week, Azaroth focused on his personal cultivation. He also created many pills for himself and his retainers.

He distributed them using the special function of his Mystical Spiritual Connecting Rings. The ability to pass resources ignoring the spatial distance between them.

The pills he had created were known as Apex Blood Pills.

They were useful for the warriors under the 4 Star Rank. They allowed a warrior to activate the hidden potential in their bodies. And even perfectly awaken their bloodline.

The only one who didn't use it was Tiana. She and her subordinate had their physiques enhanced by the Seven Star Yin Pills.

There was no comparison between the Seven Star Yin Pills and the Apex Blood Pills.

The Apex Blood Pills were much easier to make than the Seven Star Yin Pills, and Azaroth could concoct them in large quantities.

This one week was rather well spent, and Azaroth was satisfied.

Just as he was going to check the training of these disciples, Azaroth paused in his tracks as a frown appeared on his face.

'My Spiritual Imprints vanished?!'

All the spiritual imprints from those humans had vanished at the same time.

Soon, Azaroth regained his calm as he thought 'It appears that this Black Hurricane's Spiritual Prowess isn't something to be underestimated. That's also fine. I know the location where they were purged. I can check out that place.'

Azaroth looked at the sky and then blew a high-pitched whistle.

His entire surroundings remained silent for nearly 10 seconds. After that, he suddenly heard a loud screech as well.

Azaroth noticed it was Zena who was rushing towards him at top speed.

These past few months, Zena had been going in the nearby forests of Veninza City. These forests were under the Dragon Tiger Palace.

She was killing humans and also taking control of the low-ranked beasts in that location. Naturally, Azaroth had ordered Zena to fly away as soon as she felt she couldn't win.

Azaroth naturally wasn't planning to let the beasts slip from his fingers. They were going to be good to surprise the enemy…

Moreover, unlike the humans, it was a much easier task to get these beasts' loyalty.

The bloodline suppression if the beasts were at the same rank. If the beasts were at different ranks, then the stronger one would have a greater say.

Currently, Zena was merely a 3 Star Beast. Thus, she was only flying around, taking charge of the 2 Star or 3 Star Beasts.

Now that Azaroth had called out for her, Zena had immediately responded and rushed towards his position.

She was in her original appearance so that she could carry Azaroth.

Azaroth suddenly jumped over Zena and placed his feet over her body.

"I will send you the point. Just move towards that direction at your quickest pace." Azaroth commanded Zena.

Zena nodded at those words, and soon the location appeared in her mind.

She twisted her massive body in that direction and took flight like an arrow from a bowstring.

Azaroth's flying speed couldn't be compared to Zena's flying speed.

He had to reach the spot where his Spiritual Imprint was purged as soon as possible. The longer it took, the greater the chance that the Black Hurricane would be able to cover his tracks, preventing Azaroth from finding him.

At Zena's top speed, Azaroth only required 3 days to reach the spot where his Spiritual Imprint had been purged.

Before they reached the point, Azaroth was quite shocked as he saw many auras present at the scene when he checked using his Mystic Eyes of Perception.

These warriors' presence wasn't what shocked him. It was the fact that he couldn't sense their presence using his Spiritual Senses.

'They have also eaten those pills!' Azaroth soon understood the entire situation 'Instead of running away, the guy had been waiting for me to arrive. He probably planned to wait for an entire week and surprise me.'

"Zena. Wait here. Stay ready for my signal." Azaroth ordered Zena.

He received a confirmation signal from Zena before Azaroth suddenly jumped off Zena's back as he flew towards the location.

The location seemed to be an abandoned ruin of a broken castle.

Now that Azaroth stared at the entire castle using his Mystic Eyes of Perception, he saw many warriors in this location.

They were cult members of this demon. Even after using the Spiritual Senses, this abandoned castle would appear to be completely empty.

An individual wouldn't realize he was heading into a trap until he was in one.

'Ten 5 Star Warriors. The rest are 4 Star Warriors, huh? I wonder if that Black Hurricane is among them as well.'

A thin smile appeared on Azaroth's face. He would rarely get the chance to use his true powers to fight against someone.

After getting the memories of his clone, his hands were itching for a fight as well.

Purple Flames immediately shot out of Azaroth's palms as they headed towards the abandoned fort ahead of his eyes.

His Hell Flames had established a perimeter around the entire Fort in a matter of seconds. There was a hint of disdain in Azaroth's eyes as he whispered, "Hell Flare!"

Suddenly, his Hell Flames shot out and covered the entire area in that perimeter.

The warriors in the castle didn't realize what had occurred before their bodies came in contact with those terrifying Hell Flames.

No matter which direction they went, they couldn't get away from Azaroth's Hell Flames.

Some of them even began to shout loudly, "Save us, Lord Black Hurricane!"

Azaroth kept his eyes focused on a specific spot as he noticed his Hell Flames hadn't managed to cover that area.

It wasn't so much that they hadn't covered the region, but rather that they couldn't.

'Creating a vacuum around him to prevent my Hell Flames from reaching him? That's a clever idea.'

'But…'

The vacuum around that individual immediately began to collapse. The Hell Flames were destroying the Ardor infused in the wind around that individual.

Once that individual realized that his vacuum barrier won't hold any longer, he immediately shot out of the fort!

He was in a disheveled appearance.. He looked absolutely shocked as he stared at the man ahead of him.
