Chapter 99: Middle Core Formation Realm, System Alterations
...…..
BOOM!!!
Erupting out with a large burst of power, Fire Brigadier #1 broke the ground beneath his feet and blurred in Lucifer's direction!
"Ahh…"
That was all Lucifer had to say in response to this display of strength; leaning his body to the left a little, he just barely evaded a straight spine shattering kick!
"Yo, bro? You could really hurt someone by using something like that…" Watching the demon-like man fly by him, Lucifer returned back to his spear shaped posture. "Anyways… What even are you? Clearly you are not human, but you are also not fully considered a demon," he said calmly.
BZzZzztt…
Crackling and sparking, Fire Brigadier #1 stopped his attack midair and landed on the ground with refined steps.
Exhibiting perfect control over his unkindled strength, he halted all of the Qi in and around his body. Then, with large strides toward the far smaller Lucifer, he began by saying, "Unlike the rest of the Fire Brigadiers, I am not of the same creation.
They were made from typical reproduction, whereas I was a byproduct of the insane experiments of an extremely powerful scientist.
Taking the DNA of a demon from the demon realm and a human from this realm and coalescing them together, my existence was what came out. Or to be exact, I was what came out of a... test tube…"
OOOM!
Taking thunderous strides toward his target, Fire Brigadier #1 locked eyes with the fearless 6th Young Master of the Devilduke Family. In a demonic voice, he said, "Just as you are an Aberration among those of your family, I too am something far from ordinary… And along with this atypicalness, I received innate strength far beyond what a mere human could hope to wield.
Within the same realm, I am… unrivaled."
FWIP!
Flashing into the speed stream, Fire Brigadier #1 vanished from sight before instantly reappearing in front of the tiny, foolish human!
"Just go ahead and die to a superior being! There is no longer a need for your existence in this world!! On order of your father and mother, your death is all but guaranteed!!!"
WAAA!
Brilliantly dazzling and beyond overwhelming, Fire Brigadier #1 lashed out with a strength infinitely close to the Half-Step Soul Transformation Realm!
Surpassing even the 13 Strongest Beings in the Elemental Nations, below the Ancestors, his power was second to none-
SHING!
"How-!?"
|Serious Series: Unlimited Serious Sword Strikes|
SHING! SHING! SHING!
As if the insanely fast demon were moving in slow motion, a razor-sharp, black longsword traveled around the entirety of his body before suddenly halting its movements and returning to its sheath.
"Sorry, big guy. But for a large, red loot bag, you did quite well for yourself. Especially when considering that I had to speed up the process and make another breakthrough in my Body Cultivation to surpass your power level."
Walking away from the scene with a debonair disposition, Lucifer took a few cursory glances at the faint golden sheen to his skin color. "So this is what Gold Rank Body Cultivation feels like… How intriguing…"
By this point in time, the damage had finally registered for Fire Brigadier #1. Thus, his body split up into chunks so small that even a grain of sand would be bigger than a piece of him.
SPURT!
Without ever having seen a single one of the sword slashes, Fire Brigadier was sliced up like sashimi before his existence was transferred to Lucifer in the form of Clone Essence.
BLING!
[Ding! You have killed a Peak Nascent Soul Realm Fire Brigadier of the Fire Nation. The reward is 4.5 Billion CE²]
[Ding! You have killed a Peak Nascent Soul Realm Fire Brigadier of the Fire Nation. The reward is 1.8 Billion CE²]
[Ding! All Fire Brigadiers of the Fire Nation have been killed and disposed of. An extra amount of 10 Billion CE² has been awarded!]
"Umu? Not bad, not bad indeed."
While nodding his head in a pleasant mood, Lucifer shot out his slimy black tendrils and absorbed the cultivation and memories of Fire Brigadier #1.
After sifting through those memories, a contemplative look formed on his face. "It does appear that Mr. Superior Demon over there was not originally created in the Fire Nation. It seems his existence as a 'Human/Demon experiment' was not an isolated incident, and there are likely more just like him. But in the Elemental Nations, he is probably the only one of his kind."
Thinking about this topic got Lucifer wondering about what was actually happening behind the curtains of this loot-filled world.
However, after a few seconds of getting nowhere with both his mind and the mind of Fire Brigadier #1, he put the matter to the back of his mind. After which, he glanced at his Clone Essence and realized he had some spending to do…
"Actually, before I figure out what I want to purchase, I might as well check out my full system interface."
BLING!

"Hmm… Did I completely forget about my Mystic Confluence Physique or what?"
Looking over his system interface, Lucifer couldn't help but think that he had been quite negligent when it came to keeping track of the many aspects of his existence.
"Well, no time like the present!"
As if he were a mentally re*aded chimpanzee, he completely forgot about his negligence and focused on the 'present'. The monkey had an extremely tough time, you know, using his brain; hence, his mind always traveled to the 'now', taking life as one big game.
Luckily for him and unfortunately for his stunted intelligence, his life really was analogous to that of a game…
"Clikicty beep boop, I will click this and this and this. Ahh, I need some more clones, so let's get a shit-ton of those as well!"
Spending roughly 65% of his Clone Essence, Lucifer came out with 10 new Peak Nascent Soul Realm Clones and a 6th Order Mystic Confluence Physique!
"With all of these clones, I have a way better slaving force than I did before. And to maximize efficiency, I will send them to the fields right away! Farmers have no need for breaks or rest time; only farming!"
Doing just as he said he would, the 10 or so clones were sent out into the world. As for what they would be doing…
Well, there were 12 Elemental Nations, were there not?
And Lucifer had 13 Peak Nascent Soul Realm Clones, all of whom were stronger than the Elemental Emperors…
Where does one think this was going…?
"Ya know, as they say in my hometown! Erm… Wait, what did they say in my hometown…? Murderhobos for the win, maybe? Hmm… Yeah, I think that's it!"
With death and Loot at the forefront of his mind, Lucifer faded from his position and blitzed in the direction of the Nature Nation. Aiming to quickly reclaim his short, black-haired midget, he sped up his speed to 10,000%.
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!
Sonic booms reverberated through the skies as a raven-haired, immortal-like man crossed over countless territories and fiefs. Making sure to alert absolutely everything of his presence, he had a whole line of cultivators and powerful Spiritual Beasts trailing behind him…
Of course, for Lucifer, this was just an easier way to bait the loot. And so far, it has worked like a charm!
By the time that he did eventually make it to the Nature Nation, more than 1200 Rank 1 – 4 Sects had sent out their Grand Elders, Supreme Elders, Ancestors, and yatayata…
From those that were sent out, none made it back alive…
Without even breaking a sweat, Lucifer amassed 30 Billion+ CE² and he reduced the high-level cultivator population by 5%!
5% might not seem like a lot, but when put in retrospect, 5% was enough to account for over 3 million cultivators, all of whom were in and above the Foundation Establishment Realm!
Even though the Elemental Nations were an utterly massive stretch of land and powerhouses, such losses were enough to deal a major blow to the combat forces of all Nations. Thus, yet another meeting was held by the representatives of the 12 Elemental Nations.
However, contrary to last time, it wasn't merely a handful of Emperors that decided to participate; it was all of them!
After convening together, they had a very heated discussion about the disappearance of the Birdhouse Phenomenon, the 13 absurdly powerful existences causing mayhem in their nations, and the raven-haired Deity that brought death and destruction wherever he went…
While this was going down, a certain magic dash cam recording was being played for Lord Xiao and Lady Mu in the underground area of the Fire Nation's Royal Castle.
