The Dungeon Conquerors: Journey to the Peak

Chapter 215: Ch 215: Demon's Situation

After thinking about everything, Rein decided to isolate himself here for a whole year to allow the two balls to finish their merging process. The demons were very badly damaged in the last incident so they would not be doing anything serious for the time. As for the humans, they would also not be able to take any extra steps without knowing what the demons were up to.

So just like that the battle between humans and demons suddenly came to a halt. Both sides were worried about what the other side was going to do and no one made any big commotion. So a peaceful time arrived for both of the races.

But this was just a calm before the storm. Both demons and humans still hated each other and if one encountered the other, a fierce battle would definitely break out between them. The humans were actually quite surprised that this time it did not look like the demons were in any kind of trouble even though the supply of the world's energy to the rift was still blocked.

The humans tried to find the reason behind this but were not successful. They were not really able to see what was happening inside the spatial rift so all they were able to do in this regard was to speculate. And they were not able to think of any reasons as to how the demons could solve the problem of the lack of the world's energy.

Rein on the other hand had more ideas about the spatial rift so he was able to guess things more accurately. But still he was not sure if what he was thinking was really correct or not.

So even though Rein was on a little break and was isolating himself away from the world, he came out of his base in an unknown raining mountain range and went to the spatial rift to investigate this matter. The answer to this problem was very important and Rein needed proper answers for his future plans.

Obviously he was not able to enter the rift anymore as that was way too dangerous. But the area from where he had come out had become a permanent weak spot for the rift and using that spot Rein was able to send in some small puppets to gather some information.

The last attack that Rein used before getting out of the rift had terrible results for the demons. Alcusus was badly hurt from this and the same was the case for the key which was the only reason why the demons were allowed to stay inside the rift.

So if demons wanted to continue staying in the good graces of the consciousness of the spatial rift, the existence of the key was very important. Or those terrible attacks that even someone like Rein was unable to withstand would be thrown toward the demons.

So at the last moment, Alcusus made a dangerous decision and fused himself with the key. This was actually his second inherent skill that he had from his birth, the ability to combine with an item. This skill was one time use only and he could not use it to cultivate.

The reason why he had never used this skill before was because Alcusus was always dissatisfied with the items that he was able to find and he always wanted something better. But now to save his own life and his race, he was somewhat forced to make the decision to fuse with this key.

But this turned out to be a good decision for the demon race and Alcusus himself. Even though he lost his freedom and was unable to go out of the spatial rift anymore, he was able to harness the power of the rift which was a massive boost to his personal strength.

And at the same time using him as a medium, the spatial rift itself was able to create the world's energy inside it. At the end of the day this spatial rift and the demons living inside were all actually a part of this world. So it was very much possible for the rift to generate the world's energy inside it.

Obviously the amount of energy it was able to generate was not very high but it was enough for the demons to at least not lose their cultivation anymore. If they used this energy in a conservative way, then they would even be able to increase their cultivation. So this was how the demons were able to overcome the problem of the lack of the world's energy.

The blocking of the spatial nodes were still effective as the demons now had a limited amount of energy for their whole race. If the average cultivation level for the demons increased or the number of demons got higher then the demons would have to struggle again with the limited energy that they had. But it was also possible that in the future the spatial rift would be able to generate more energy.

...

After learning about the whole situation, Rein immediately decided that he needed to destroy the demons and the spatial rift as soon as possible. With the world itself helping them, Rein was sure that the situation from here would just improve for the demons.

Demon Sovereign Alcusus suddenly having a second skill that he had never used before in his whole life and it suddenly fitting the current situation was extremely suspicious. Rein thought that most likely Alcusus was given this skill suddenly after Rein left by the world even though the regular demons had no idea about it.

If Rein did not take quick steps then he would have to face a lot of troubles in the future.

With that in mind, he immediately went back to his base. Colinde was going to be extremely helpful fighting against the demons if she could reach the true god realm. All his other wives would also be able to support him. Rein had never been the type of person who liked to fight alone be it in this world or his own. So he was going to join his wives to make his plans a success.

All his wives were not far away from the true god realm and if Rein had gotten the one year time, then he was sure that all of them would be able to reach the true god realm for sure. But now he was in a bit of a hurry and he needed to think of a way to increase their cultivation realm as soon as possible without hurting their potential.

And Rein was also working on creating a new type of rain stone that would work even inside the spatial rift. If he was successful in it then that would also be a very powerful trump card. And finally he needed to make the merging process of his two powerful items to be faster.

Now Rein had too much work and too little time. So would he be able to complete all his preparation on time ?
