And just in case, I also left an arm of the other party.
If the Soul Demon died or didn't come back, I should be able to acquire the characteristics of the Soul Demon through this arm.
After all, the telepathy talent I got from the horned demon Idris last time was obtained by eating part of its body.
At the same time, I am also full of curiosity about the outer planes. After all, the Seven Heavens, the Nine Hells, and the endless layers of the Abyss are all part of this multiverse.
It's home to gods, powerful demons, and other creatures…
This time, the Soul Demon is an opportunity!
"Lord!"
While I was thinking, Shea, Winnie, and Elise all came over.
I had asked them not to intervene when I was exchanging blows with the Soul Demon just now.
"Elise, can summoning a magic circle also summon demons?" I asked directly.
"Lord, it is possible, but it may not be possible to summon a more powerful demon like the one just now! Because that demon has signed a contract with you, this summoning circle is exclusively for her, and it belongs to the magic power under it that hasn't recovered yet..." Elise said with a lowered head.
"Then go down first! Shea stays!" I said, looking at the place where the magic circle disappeared.
It seems that my demon vegetable garden is not perfect yet, but take your time!
One day the Endless Layers of the Abyss and the Nine Hells will become my own meat gardens!
Let's enjoy life for now. After all, such an ugly Soul Demon is accompanied by a Silver Dream Demon!
I immediately turned into a dragon man and walked over to hold Shea's hand.
Elise bent down and left, but Winnie did not leave.
She bit her lip and looked at the backs of Shea and me, hesitated to speak, and finally retreated sadly.
I glanced at the place where Winnie left and shook my head. She couldn't run away...
Looking at Shea again, today's Shea was wearing a black dress, her long white hair reaching her waist, and her slender waist making her chest seem precarious.
The contrast between her fair skin and the black dress made her skin even more radiant and tender.
The most important thing is that today she had a double ponytail!
This made my heart burn even hotter, and I embraced Shea directly in my arms.
Feeling Shea's breath, stroking the warmth in her arms...
I felt very refreshed at this moment!
---
"Master, what is our next goal?"
In the palace, I sat on a huge chair, still in my dragon-man form.
Shea was hugged in my arms, her face flushed.
"Are there any other, more powerful races around the region where your drows are located?" I asked, stroking her soft rabbit ears.
"There are many races around, but since our drows came here, they have united and are very hostile to us..." Elise whispered.
"I need information about them!" I glanced at her.
"Obey, my master!" Elise suddenly winked at me.
But with Shea in my arms, enjoying the warmth of her, I felt no particular stirrings.
"Go down!" I coldly dismissed her.
Elise looked at Shea and finally backed away.
"Lord, Maya said before that this Elise seems to have no good intentions!" Shea poked her head out of my arms after seeing Elise leave.
"I hope she is restless and unkind!" I said with a smile.
With the monitoring of the mind chain and the control of the twisted seed, I want to see if this gal can give me a surprise.
"I'm going out for a while. You will stay with Winnie for a while."
I stood up and touched Shea's forehead.
After all, she was my first partner, so I still cared about her.
"Master, I understand. You have to pay attention to safety!" Shea also stood up.
She had put all her heart into her lord now. She didn't know what the future held, but she was very happy now.
I said nothing more. After recovering my body, I flew out of the hall toward the ground.
After flying for a while, I reached the cave where the blue-footed dragon snake used to be.
At this moment, Pear, who was guarding the cave, was still sound asleep.
All around him were solid stone walls made of earth and stone.
I quickly locked Pear's position using the chain of soul and vibration perception.
With one paw and without making a sound, I broke through the stone wall surrounding Pear.
I grabbed Pear by the back of his neck like a kitten and lifted him out.
"Silly bear, do you miss me?" I asked, looking at the startled Pear.
"Ho Ho Ho~" Pear panicked when he was suddenly caught but calmed when he saw my appearance.
I ignored Pear's aggrieved look. A ferocious Earth Splitter making such an expression was quite disgusting.
"Pear, your defensive fortress is not good. You see, I broke it open with a single paw. If there was an intruder, wouldn't you be done for?" I teased him.
After putting Pear on the ground, I touched his head.
It seems so! The black dragon broke through the stone wall with one claw, so other enemies could do the same.
I silently put a twisted seed into Pear's body.
"Okay, continue to guard!"
Satisfied, I flew out of the cave.
Once outside, I probed for any sign of the unsettling sensation of being watched. Minutes passed, but nothing came, and I felt relieved.
Satisfied, I reached out to Skye and Danyla, gathering intelligence on the elusive Voltan family, their recent activities, and any rumors of powerful artifacts they might possess. With the information settled, I turned to matters closer to home, checking Shadar's progress and the conditions of the Frost Trolls, Goblins, and Kobolds.
I had come out this time with a very important purpose...
This time, after spending so much effort, I obtained two fine gold ore fields of the drow elves in the underground world.
But these two veins of fine gold ore have been mined by the drow for some time.
Therefore, the reserves are very limited, and the sum is even far inferior to the previous magic iron veins.
This made me extremely annoyed! What makes it worse is that I couldn't find much adamantine in the cities of the drow.
It can be regarded as knowing how lucky I was to be able to get two large veins in a row.
Plus, now that I have strength, I decided to go back, reclaim my mine veins, and look for my former enemies, by the way.
After all, I'm very vengeful!
The Voltan family—I want to get back at them.
Maybe these guys didn't expect that I would come back so soon!
I thought wickedly.
After all, the growth cycle of a true dragon is relatively long.
One hundred years old to become an adult!
So, it is not too late for the dragon to take revenge after 100 years.
And now my body size is already far greater than that of a black adult dragon! And I am sure they don't have too many cards left.
I continued to fly in the direction I had come before, and after flying for about nearly a day, I came to the Larkana Mountains.
After casually killing two lifeless monsters to fill my stomach, I felt a burst of pride.
I knew that if I continued to fly along the Larkana Mountains, I should be able to enter the sunset area at that time.

At the same time, under the topaz vein, in a wide tunnel.
Shadar, the one-eyed troll, is sitting on a large rock, and some topaz stones are inlaid in the tunnel wall.
A faint yellow light was revealed.
"Boss, it has become more and more difficult for us to obtain food during this time, and we were almost discovered by those humans, or..." A frost troll looked at Shadar in front of him.
"I know what you mean, but since Lord Barbatos knew they could follow us to the Dragon Nest City, we are stuck here until we get new orders. As for goblins and kobolds, you know it—since our lord has taken goblins and kobolds into his family, we can no longer treat them as food, especially at this time!"
"And I don't want to hear any more such remarks!" Shadar's single eye showed a fierce light.
At that time, due to the rush of evacuation, many things were not brought.
Especially the food!
Since human soldiers have been stationed outside, it has become extremely difficult to find food.
Shadar is actually not afraid to fight human soldiers.
But their Evil Tooth Tribe and those goblin kobolds are hiding in the topaz mine.
If it is really exposed here for some food, there will undoubtedly be very serious consequences.
After all, in Shadar's heart, Master will definitely come back, and some frost trolls don't quite understand Shadar's thoughts.
After all, human beings were powerful at that time, and the black dragon was obviously not an opponent.
But Shadar has personally seen Barbatos's terrifying growth ability to the extreme.
He believed that Master would be back soon, and if not, Lady Danyla would definitely interfere if things got truly worse. So he stayed here all this time.
The goblin leader Vix and the kobold leader Doug are also here.
They have also been mining down the veins.
Down below, they discovered a dark underground river filled with glowing fish-like creatures.
Since the number of goblins and kobolds is not large, they can barely maintain their endless hunger.
"Boss Doug, some frost trolls don't look right at us now!" The goblins and kobolds are hiding deeper in the mine.
Kobold leader Doug gnaws on a raw fish.
Next to him, the goblin leader Vickers said with a sad face.
He felt as if he had returned to the time when he was the meat of frost trolls.
Doug was silent for a moment and continued:
"Vickers, come meet Shadar with me later! Take half of our food, by the way!"
"Doug, you are..." Vickers looked confused.
"Vickers, let me ask you, do you believe that the true dragon will come back?" Doug looked at the goblin in front of him.
"Of course our lord will definitely come back, otherwise, what are we doing mining all the time?" Vickers said firmly.
He didn't just say this—he believed it because he knows that Lord Barbatos is really special.
"Since you think so, Shadar must think so too!"
"Hehe! And the food is only secondary. I believe Shadar will make the right choice!" Doug stood up after eating the fish bones and meat.
"I'll go with you!" Vickers gritted his teeth and decided to believe Doug.
Doug showed such an expression a long time ago and ordered his men to bring some stored food to look for Shadar.
Along the way, Doug looked at the strong frost trolls around him, but he didn't panic at all, while Vickers behind him was a little terrified.
Shadar was surprised by their arrival.
Still, he received them.
"Chief Shadar!"
"Doug, you did a great job when you took back the vein!" Shadar stared at Doug in front of him with one eye.
"Chief Shadar, today I have only one purpose!" Doug stared fearlessly at Shadar, who was much taller than him.
"Do you think Lord Barbatos will come back?"
"So what do you think?" There was a dangerous light in Shadar's eyes.
"He will definitely come back!" Doug said firmly.
"Hahaha, Doug, you know, I used to look down on you guys, but now I admire you!"
"Don't worry, we will be the best brothers in the future. I will restrain those clansmen so that they will not harass you. After all, we are all members of Lord Barbatos's family!" Shadar said straightforwardly.
On the other hand, Vickers was a little confused. It was a success, and he didn't even bring out the food?

After flying for a while, I finally arrived at the camp where the Evil Tooth Tribe was.
On a high cliff, I tightened my wings and landed on it.
Below was the camp of the Evil Tooth Tribe from before.
Looking closely, it seemed that this place had been transformed into a human stronghold.
From time to time, some sparse human soldiers walked in and out.
Vibration perception!
I began to carefully perceive all the vibration sources in the camp.
After all, the sound of a human heartbeat is too obvious to me, someone with vibration perception.
Simply a light in the dark.
A total of 139 vibration sources—139 people.
Time to get some interest back!
My scarlet eyes blinked, and I flew up.
I wanted to give these human soldiers a big surprise.
Let them see the true bomber from my previous life!
I began to fly higher and higher, finally reaching an altitude of over 1,000 meters.
{Blast Bomb}
I saw more than twenty huge explosive bombs gradually forming around my body.
{Fourth Tier: Earth and Stone Technique, Entry-Level}
Seeing that the fireballs had formed, I began to mobilize the surrounding earth magic elements. Pieces of earth and rocks, each with a diameter of five or six meters, began to take shape.
"Then get ready for a surprise!"
---
In the camp of the former Evil Tooth Tribe:
A tall man in white armor was eating barbecue at a table.
"Damn it, they give the fattest mining tasks to that idiot Willow and leave me here to guard and wipe out some frost trolls!"
"General, don't worry about these things. With your status, you don't need those broken ores to increase your achievements!" a soldier under his command complimented.
"You don't know shit! That ore reserve is unprecedented. It's not comparable to ordinary mineral veins!"
"Huh? What's that in the sky? Has the sun fallen?" A soldier suddenly looked up at the dozens of large fireballs in the sky, asking suspiciously.
"Enemy attack!!"
It was too late for the General in white armor to finish his sentence.
Rumbling~
Dozens of boulders fell directly, accelerated by gravity.
The ground was smashed into a huge pothole, causing mass casualties in an instant.
The explosive bombs that followed detonated immediately in the camp.
My magic power was immense, so the power of the condensed explosive bombs was even greater.
The biggest difference between explosive bombs and fireballs is that explosive bombs explode.
Just like the small bombs from my previous life.
But the flames produced by magic are far beyond those of ordinary fires.
I looked at the camp below, now a sea of flames, feeling neither joy nor sorrow.
It seemed my bomber still wasn't quite qualified.
I landed in the middle of the camp and casually relieved a soldier trapped under the earth and stones with my paw.
I walked to the cave where I once lived, step by step, and paused for a moment.
"Come out, bug!" I said, staring at a boulder at my feet.
Boom~
The boulder was lifted, and a strong man in white armor frantically fled into the distance.
I knocked him away with a swipe of my paw.
The man, however, used the force to vanish into the distance, paying the price by coughing up a mouthful of blood.
But I watched his retreating figure and didn't give chase—my goal had already been achieved.
I began cleaning up those lucky enough to survive the bombing, like catching bugs.
With my talent for vibration perception, these soldiers had nowhere to hide.
