Dream Travel

Chapter 361 should not be underestimated

Bai Mu paid close attention to the head the demon lord was carrying; it was impossible for him not to notice it, as it was extremely conspicuous in the polar night.

"Your jewelry is nice."

As soon as Bai Mu finished speaking, he raised his hand and fired a shot, a mental energy bullet without lightning, aimed at the head.

Mental energy bullets are not like coins; even with the enhancement of lightning, their flight speed will not increase.

Only basic strength can increase the speed of a bullet.

Herrean casually deflected the bullet and said in a deep voice, "A perceptive human, but this ends here."

He glanced around and saw that the Awakened Ones were still fighting, but facing a large number of demons, their casualties were also heavy.

This was only because the demons were fighting each other and there was a serious internal conflict. If there hadn't been an internal conflict among the demons, these awakened beings would have been devoured by a large number of awakened beings long ago.

Herrean immediately discerned the true nature of those Awakened Ones; they seemed to be some kind of special spiritual entity.

No, it's a physical entity, something far more special than a spirit. This is clearly not the power of the White Curtain itself, so it must be...

He looked at the weapon box in the white curtain. As a high-ranking demon, his senses were stronger, and he could still sense the origin of those special entities.

The summoned Awakened Ones are closely connected to the White Curtain's weapon crate.

That box looks somewhat like a lich's phylactery? No, it should be a necromancer's soul-controlling tool.

However, only one soldier can make that thing effective, which means that the requirements for using that box are very low.

The product is good; Herrene has come up with a new way to torture people.

So this high-ranking demon, too lazy to waste any more words with Bai Mu, took direct action.

The deterrent effect of his landing diminished over time; it was no longer directed at the White Curtain, but at the demons of chaos.

Otherwise, if he were to be surrounded and attacked by a group of demons caught in the chaos of battle as soon as he landed, wouldn't he, as a demon lord, have any dignity left?

The hellfire that erupted swept towards Bai Mu, who, faced with the sudden attack, swung his weapon case to block the onrushing flames.

The raging hellfire split off, and the white curtain instantly boosted the intensity of the released demonic energy to its maximum limit.

What followed was a gradual increase in power and frenzy. Under Helrein's slightly surprised gaze, the white curtain, filled with ferocious killing intent, charged forward amidst the hellfire.

The box delivered a shield bash to him at close range. The weapon box collided with the demon's greatsword, creating an impact that blasted away some of the approaching demons, and the ground beneath their feet shattered.

Helrein used his strength to repel the white curtain, and then looked at it with satisfaction, deciding to torture it before turning it into a demon.

He had never been to the human world, but as a demon lord, he had the opportunity to indirectly contact the human world through some demon followers.

He had seen powerful humans with battle aura, but Bai Mu didn't have those powers; he fought him solely based on his superior physical abilities.

Oh, this human seems to have fire resistance, otherwise even with a strong body, he would have been dried out and died under the scorching heat of hellfire at close range, but Bai Mu withstood it.

The white curtain, having been repelled, forced itself to a stop by stepping on the ground with its toes, and then charged forward at an even faster speed.

The Dream Eater Greatsword in his hand tore through the air, and the hellfire surrounding Helrein exploded, revealing his body bearing old wounds.

The wounds on Helrein's body, which had been knocked back half a step, began to reopen slightly, but the demon lord did not care about it.

Although he was injured by the alien demon's trump card when he fought against it, it doesn't mean he can't beat a human!
Even though he had previously used his power beyond his limits to kill the demon earth dragon and fought many challenging battles against demons.

These are all insignificant; they are things that the demon lord should normally deal with.

As always, a demon lord may not be good at governing his territory, and may even be unable to survive, but he must be able to fight within the demon territory.

Not only must they be able to fight, they must be able to fight continuously!
The bonuses that the Demon Territory provides to the Demon Lord are not meant to make the Demon Lord a one-on-one king who can only fight one battle a day. There are countless battles in Hell.

The reopening of the old wound made Herrene laugh out loud as the Demon Greatsword and the White Curtain's Dream Erosion Greatsword clashed fiercely.

Every time the two sides clashed, large swaths of hellfire would explode. Helrein noticed that the White Curtain's combat power was slowly increasing.

Although this human didn't possess any special powers, his somewhat abnormal life force became increasingly frenzied.

What was originally a life force meant to sustain life has now become more like a destructive force.

This power cannot be released outwards, but it can make the power of the white curtain grow stronger and stronger.

Because of the difference in size, the ground beneath Bai Mu's feet was the first to crumble.

Seizing this opening, Herrein made a move, pointing at the white curtain, and a dark red streak of light struck the white curtain.

"Damn it—" The weapon case in the white curtain slammed into that arm, and the Demon Lord's strong arm made a cracking sound.

Then, Bai Mu quickly retreated, swiftly pulled out a bottle of holy water, and poured it down his throat. This was a special version of holy water made by Philomia, which was non-toxic and could be drunk directly.

After a bottle of holy water was poured down his throat, Bai Mu's bloodshot eyes, which were practically on fire, returned to normal.

Even so, wisps of smoke rose from his body; Herreen's attack had nearly set him ablaze.

The white curtain stared at Helrein, whose body was covered in hellfire, which severely interfered with the effectiveness of the Dream-Eroding Imperial Arm.

He drank two more bottles of holy water before the agitation within him finally subsided. "You're very well prepared." Helrein shook his fractured arm and strode towards the white curtain.

He swung his demonic greatsword down with a single strike.

The weapon case, shielded by the white curtain, tilted to one side. The demonic greatsword, which had been slashing down, slid to the ground, leaving a fiery slash mark as the demon caught in the blast screamed and was burned to death.

Demons are skilled with fire and can even bathe in lava, but they will still be burned to death if they encounter stronger fire.

Deflecting Helrein's attack, Bai Mu spat out a mouthful of holy water, which, carrying shattered golden light, came into contact with the hellfire.

The holy water evaporated instantly. If it were ordinary water, it wouldn't leave any trace, but this was holy water.

The evaporated holy water formed a pale golden mist. The sacred power did not disappear as a result, but was stimulated by the power of demons and hell, and all its power was instantly unleashed.

The mist could only exist for a short time, but the sacred power contained within it affected the demons.

Herrene's movements inevitably faltered as the old, cracked wounds on his body came into contact with the mist, causing him immense pain.

The energy stored in the weapon crate under the white curtain exploded completely, and the flashing green light slammed into Helrein.

The lightning explosion was like a small sun, dispelling the darkness of the polar night, and the demon lord roared in pain.

The burst of lightning paralyzed Helrein's body, tearing more wounds into his strong frame.

Faced with a near-fatal threat, Helrein gripped the demon greatsword tightly, and hellfire swirled into a fiery tornado, attempting to engulf the white curtain.

The white curtain quickly retreated to avoid being caught in the fire tornado.

The thunderstorm subsided, leaving Helrein charred black. He gasped for breath, realizing he had been careless, or rather, hadn't respected his opponent, White Curtain.

It's wrong to seek out Bai Mu when Lien Chan is in poor health and he's not in good physical condition.

Such an opponent should be fought when you are at your peak.

He initially thought Bai Mu was just a despicable villain who attracted the demonic earth dragon to attack his territory, but he never expected that Bai Mu would actually be a master.

Some demons, smelling the scent of Helrein's blood, couldn't resist attacking, only to be killed by Helrein's sword.

The demon greatsword, which was originally as light as a feather, has now become heavy.

He stared at Bai Mu, whose body was covered in large burns, but the burn marks were healing rapidly.

The charred and torn shirt was ripped off by the white curtain.

"Wow, that's amazing." Bai Mu thought to himself. The weapon box had accumulated so much energy. Although it wasn't launched through the Spirit Pivot, the Demon Lord actually withstood the burst of energy at point-blank range.

The ground beneath the demon lord's feet was scorched by the lightning.

I glanced at the indicator bar on the weapon case. The red indicator bar had returned to the same color as the weapon case. If the case wanted to discharge electricity, it would have to consume its own power.

However, Bai Mu had no intention of discarding the weapon case; he needed a sturdy enough shield now.

The Demon Lord's flames are too dangerous; even with fire resistance, being hit by those flames will result in severe burns.

His weapon case is equipped with lightning attacks that are very unfriendly to melee opponents, and enemies covered in flames are equally unfriendly to melee combat!

Glancing around.

While the two sides were locked in a stalemate, more demons attacked.

"No! Stop disturbing me! Fight!!" Helrein roared furiously at the mindless demons.

The sweeping hellfire burned all the demons to ashes, clearing out a large gap.

Bai Mu waved his hand, canceling the summoning of the remaining Awakened Ones.

At this point, those who have awakened can no longer play a role in sharing the pressure.

They've already attracted enough attention from the other demons.

Herrean's absence is significant because the Awakened Ones are of great importance; his presence would eliminate the need for them to draw the attention of other demons.

As for coming together to attack, if Herrene were not a demon but some other creature, they would be quite useful.

However, the Hellfire was too destructive to the phantom.

Even if they cannot be instantly killed, awakened beings touched by the flames of hell will suffer immense pain.

During the battle, Bai Mu saw an Awakened One accidentally touch it, and was immediately burned and rolled on the ground.

Even though their phantom bodies allow them to ignore their injuries, this very characteristic actually causes them even greater pain.

With the absence of awakened beings, the demons lost their specific targets and became completely immersed in the chaotic melee brought about by the bloodbath.

Influenced by this atmosphere, Herrean's mood also became high.
