A Demon's Journey

79 Divine Holy Devil Physique

The training ground 6 and 4 were similar. Tiana was standing in a hot desert with scorching sand underneath her feet.

The Lava Plumes were attacking her with their flames.

Unlike others, Tiana hadn't fought all that much so she was definitely the weakest in terms of combat strength.

She was an art student and she only began to cultivate after entering the Rhodes Mansion.

She knew no cultivation technique or a way to control her element. Her 2 Star Rank Cultivation was a result of eating rare herbs and also her natural talent as Three Yin Physique.

Azaroth's gravity array training was the only actual training she had received.

Tiana found out that one thing she could do was run away from the attacks. Because of the gravity array training, she was confident in her speed and stamina even in this desert.

Unlike others, she had no real motivation to complete this training.

Before Tiana had reached her training ground, Azaroth met up with her.

Azaroth was clear about her situation and had thus ordered her to take it easy and survive.

By ordering her to practice in this array, he had no intention of sending her to her death. After all, a slave who was dead was less useful than one who was living.

However, even if she remained in this array and persisted for one hour, she would receive some benefits atleast.

Tiana was dodging nearly every attack as she saw through the timing of the Lava Plumes.

Every time the lava plumes would be about to attack, she would unconsciously have a dreadful feeling and dodge in the opposite direction.

Her sixth sense was unusually strong!

And as she dodged more attacks, her confidence in dodging and grasping the timing of these Lava Plumes increased.

Her sixth sense that was a god-gifted talent was being polished by repeatedly dodging the Lava Plumes' attacks.

Naturally, it would be wrong to say she had dodged them all.

There were some attacks she couldn't dodge because of the sand slowing her down so she had learned to use Ardor to defend her body.

Just as Azaroth had stated, even if she didn't attack and just focused on defending or dodging, she would benefit immensely from this training regimen.

While his retainers were training, Azaroth was feeding Zena, the Crimson Lightning Phoenix. Once Zean was full, she began to sleep on Azaroth's bed.

Azaroth left the little bird in the wooden mansion and proceeded to walk towards the fields.

He was inspecting what the farmers were doing.

For a few days, it was necessary to show them he won't tolerate any indiscipline. Any other matter could wait but the food was very necessary.

Depending on eating the bodies of the beasts was a very crude idea. He wanted some diversity and a stable source of food.

Also, once he had enough, he could begin exporting the food to the Sinyalian Kingdom.

'If my guess is right then Sophie should arrive in a week or two. Using her, I can take the plan to the next phase.'

After some minutes, Azaroth soon went towards his personal training ground.

Forbidden Array: World-Breaking Bloodline Extention was already completed. Just three drops of his blood were required and it would activate.

He braced himself for what was going to happen.

Soon, Azaroth dropped three drops of his blood onto the Array.

The Array activated as the red color began to glow on the ground, forming some strange pattern.

The patter was so strange that it sparked a little as it activated. Azaroth sat in the middle of this array while using the Heavenly Demon Meditation Technique.

Blood Red stones embedded in the ground were shining and their powers were concentrating in the air.

While this occurred, the clouds darkened. Clearly, whatever Azaroth was attempting, Heaven had also sensed it. This was a Forbidden Array that violated the rules set by the Heavens.

Without any warning, Heaven sent down a massive bolt of lightning at Azaroth, intending to kill him and destroy this heretic array.

Azaroth didn't even move as a reddish bolt of lightning targeted him.

He remained seated as a barrier immediately formed, blocking the Heavenly Lightning. In reality, the barrier hadn't actually blocked the Heavenly Lightning but split it and redirected it into the ground.

It was made of valuable materials, and it was primarily to establish this barrier that Azaroth spent so much time here.

Azaroth was initially doubtful whether this barrier would hold up against the Heavenly Lightning or not. But it seemed that the Heavenly Lightning thrown at him wasn't a high-leveled one so he was somewhat relieved about it.

The blood-red-colored energy suddenly enveloped Azaroth's body and slowly disappeared.

Currently, this energy was flaring the demonic essence present in his blood and empowering it.

Because this was Edwin's body that possessed the Celestial Blood, the three drops of Demonic Essence were quite lacking in comparison to the Celestial Blood.

Hence, he first planned to increase the Demonic Blood Essence within his body.

Azaroth's body flared up with Demonic Ardor as his Heavenly Demon Physique began to undergo a massive change.

The dark energy had grown denser while his muscles had decreased in width.

Another horn on the left side of his head sprouted in the same way as the one on his right side.

Both his horns were now of the same length.

Azaroth couldn't focus on such details though. He was concentrating on his Demonic Blood essence that seemed to grow in strength by swallowing his Human Blood.

He could halt it but Azaroth allowed it. He felt pain in his body as it began to change.

His organs and his bones absorbed a lot of Demonic Ardor and were permanently enhanced with it.

His body was now at the same level as a warrior who focused on Body Cultivation.

This was pretty impressive considering his Cultivation Art gave top results for Body Cultivation and Ardor cultivation at the same time.

Nearly 20 minutes passed and the speed at which the Demonic Blood devoured his Human Blood was increasing.

Azaroth was growing somewhat worried whether he could even stop his Demonic Essence Blood or not.

If he became a complete demon, he would have to return to Purgatory or find demons' lairs on Frascoia Continent as he didn't think that humans would let a pure demon live on this land.

Azaroth's Demonic Blood Essence concentration reached nearly 2-3% of the total blood in his body.

However, Azaroth found out that his worries were for naught as he felt a Holy Power within him activate.

Azaroth wasn't using his Holy Ardor so this was his pure Celestial Blood that activated and prevented the Demonic Blood Essence from expanding more.

In fact, as his Celestial Bloodline awoke, it clashed against the Demonic Blood Essence, purifying some of Azaroth's Demon Blood Essence back to Human Blood.

Azaroth grinned as he controlled his Celestial Blood Essence and slowly forced it away from the Demonic Blood Essence.

In this entire process, Azaroth's only fear was that his Celestial Blood Essence wouldn't react and also get swallowed by the Demonic Blood Essence.

But it seemed that he was worried for nothing.

The Celestial Blood began to purify the Human blood around it into the Celestial Blood while the Demonic Blood continued to swallow Azaroth's Human Blood and expand.

Azaroth was focusing on his entire body and kept note of the concentration of his blood.

After 20 more minutes, Azaroth's Demonic Blood had reached 20% of the concentration in his body.

Once that had occurred, Azaroth used his Humanely Ardor and forcefully contained the Demonic Blood.

Azaroth also controlled a part of his Celestial Blood and placed it near to the Demonic Blood. Now, the Demonic Blood wouldn't be able to expand itself.

Soon enough, the Celestial Blood also reached 20% of the concentration in his body.

Azaroth then forcefully connected the Celestial Blood and the Demonic Blood using his Human Blood as a bridge.

He was becoming a hybrid not just in Ardor but bloodline as well.

Outside his body, his Heavenly Demon Physique had changed greatly! In fact, it had changed so greatly that it couldn't be considered a demon physique at all.

The Demonic Ardor that covered Azaroth's body had vanished. However, the horns remained on Azaroth's head that did release a faint bit of Demonic Ardor. A pair of pure white wings sprouted on his back that released Holy Ardor.

Azaroth's Heavenly Demon Physique had permanently changed. It had now evolved into Divine Holy Devil Physique.

Azaroth slowly opened his eyes. One eye was of Purple color while the other was of Golden Color.

His horns and wings gradually faded away, and he reverted to his normal human shape. If someone were to observe him carefully now, they would notice that not only his skin had turned fairer but his face had changed slightly.

It was a very gradual change but it had somehow made him look much more attractive. In terms of numbers, if his charm value was 70 earlier then it was nearly 100 right now.

This pretty face was because Azaroth's Celestial Blood had activated. This was a passive ability possessed by the highly pure bloodline of Celestials, known as Absolute Beauty.

When he peered up, he saw that the Heavenly Lightning was still pounding his barrier.

The barrier didn't seem to be capable of holding up for another ten minutes.

Azaroth deactivated the array but kept the barrier active.

He didn't want to be struck by the Heavenly Lightning. Once the array was deactivated, the dark clouds began to disperse.
