Dream Travel

Chapter 327 A Difficult Matter
The Hellfire can help demons grow stronger, but not all of the stronger demons want to continue participating in the Hellfire.

Unfortunately, their power is inferior to that of the high-ranking demons, placing them in a mediocre position, neither superior nor inferior.

As a result, these demons inevitably develop inappropriate thoughts.

They would attempt to smuggle themselves into the human world, acquire a large number of souls, and enjoy resources equal to, or even greater than, those of high-ranking demons.

Well, this kind of thing isn't exactly an inappropriate thought for a demon.

Most demons think this way, including the high-ranking ones; in Hell, souls are a resource.

Before the soul is squeezed into dregs, it has so many uses.

Enhancing the power of demons is just the most basic thing; using it to create demon weapons is also a major application.

This demon squad isn't particularly interested in the soul of just one person, but they can use this outsider's soul to exchange for more souls with the demon lord.

If you're lucky, you might even come into contact with beings like the Demon Grand Duke...

Just think about it.

The white curtain had already rushed over, and upon seeing the demon, it showed no fear but instead took the initiative to charge forward.

This isn't mindless courage; it's because the opponent is really strong.

In a single exchange, the demon facing the white curtain was slashed away by the human whose eyes had turned silver.

The shadowflames caused the demon to roar in pain, and cracks appeared in the hellfire weapon in its hand.

This weapon incorporates some hell metal and is enhanced by the power of the demon itself; otherwise, it would have been shattered by the white curtain in an instant.

Although the White Curtain's Dream Erosion Greatsword is not made of hell metal, as an upgraded weapon, its materials have been further improved.

It can still withstand the effects of hellish power; the enchantment of Lexenbra makes this weapon even more suitable for hell.

Even after killing the demon, Lexenberg even instigated White Curtain... no, he should have reminded White Curtain that he could try to soak the greatsword in the demon's blood.

The greatsword is of high enough quality, and with the added effect of the enchantment, while this won't turn the Dream Eater Greatsword into hell metal, it will give the weapon an adaptability to hellish power.

Such cases are not uncommon. Some powerful individuals, after killing a large number of demons, find that their weapons are not destroyed, but instead transform into even more dangerous demonic weapons.

White Curtain's weapons inherently possess such capabilities.

In hell, those weapons are essentially being 'trained'; those that can withstand the environment can take off, while those that can't are simply scrapped.

The wounded demon unleashed his power, attempting to withstand the White Curtain's subsequent attacks, but his weapon reached its limit and shattered completely.

Broken hell metal and rubble pierced the demon's body, causing it to scream in agony.

Bai Mu cleaved the demon's head off with a single sword strike.

Luxembla's cackling laughter rang out. Although the souls of demons are protected by hell, their power is lost after death.

The demonic flames associated with him licked the power that the demon lost after his death. Originally, he should have started as a lesser demon after his death, but now he can only become an abyssal worm.

The remaining demons did not attempt to escape. Their demonic spells were aimed at the white curtain, but before these attacks could even reach it, they lost track of the white curtain.

A greatsword burning with flames pierced the body of another demon, but the flames unleashed by the demon seemed to have no effect on the white curtain.

Lexenberg no longer cared about this, after all, he had already demonstrated his fire resistance when fighting the demons before White Curtain.

The flames unleashed by ordinary demons do not cause much damage to the White Curtain.

The demon squad was quickly wiped out. White Curtain picked out the hell metal, not bothering to carefully select the broken pieces, but taking away the large chunks.

He then quickly left this dangerous place. Based on previous experience, a battle here would soon attract new demons. It wasn't that Bai Mu couldn't fight those demons, but rather that he had killed quite a few recently.

Staying in one place for too long will attract even more powerful demons.

White Curtain was very cautious with those demons; it wasn't that they couldn't fight them, but rather that they couldn't afford to be bogged down here.

He may not seem to be doing anything productive lately, but he's actually been going around in circles in the area where he first came to the Otherworld.

The source of the strange dream is definitely in this area. Moreover, Bai Mu has also encountered other outsiders.

There shouldn't be many Dreamwalkers, but there are quite a few Demon Hunters.

Many people died, and there were many battle remnants in the areas where the white curtain passed.

Those things were weapons brought from reality, but after being affected by hell, they decayed and deteriorated at an extremely fast speed, making them virtually unusable. Even demons wouldn't want them.

Among the wreckage, Bai Mu even saw weapons like rocket launchers. Using such weapons to blast demons... well, that's normal.

After seeing those things, Bai Mu felt that he wouldn't be surprised to encounter tank wreckage or similar objects.

During these experiences, White Curtain found a city of demons, where the source of the strange dreams is most likely located.

The demon is causing trouble by seizing the source of the dream, and there is also a city used as a base. Although it is not a very big city, it would be difficult to deal with such a place with the power of reality.

Bai Mu was curious about what the demon wanted to do.

Bai Mu picked up the wreckage left on the ground and tossed it in his hand; it was a bullet that had already begun to decay.

It turns into something like mud when you squeeze it in your hand.

Decaying things will become part of the hellish landscape.

What do you think the demons' goal is?

“I don’t know,” Luxembla replied matter-of-factly. When asked to tell some anecdotes, he said he had no problem with it.

He doesn't even care about such gossip, but important information is beyond the reach of a mere fragment of his mind.

"What use are you to?"

Flames erupted from the Dream Eater Greatsword that the white curtain was stuck in.

"With my power, you can deal with even stronger demons."

"It seems like it's okay if we don't have it." Bai Mu tossed away the bullet that had turned into a mushy mess.

He was now able to further judge the timing of the battle based on the degree of decay of these foreign objects.

The bullets were so corroded that the battle that took place here must have happened about two weeks ago.

It's considered an old war zone.

Just as Bai Mu was contemplating whether to seek out some powerful demons to extract information about the city through questioning and manipulation, he spotted several figures appearing.

Those people were fully armed, strong, and looked like big, powerful men among humans.

They're somewhat like members of a demon hunter squad; most members of the demon hunter squad are very strong.

The reason is that the 'sacred script' they use puts a burden on the body, and only a sufficiently strong body can better utilize the sacred script.
