Blood Purgatory, the demon god race—these terms were utterly unfamiliar to Lu Yang. He had not even fully understood this other world, much less a strange place like Blood Purgatory.
The Blazing Demon God knew Lu Yang understood nothing about these matters. He chuckled and said, "Think about my name—the Blazing Demon God. That means this body of mine was originally a demon god's body, but I took it."
Lu Yang frowned and asked, "Weren't you using the body of an Extraterrestrial Demon?"
The Blazing Demon God said, "At first, I used the body of an Extraterrestrial Demon, but later I discovered that demon god bodies were stronger. So I took a demon god's body instead, and that left me with a major problem."
"What problem?" Lu Yang asked.
The Blazing Demon God said irritably, "Whenever a creature changes bodies, its soul suffers some degree of damage. It may seem minor, but it cannot be repaired."
"I changed bodies seven times in my life, which left a huge flaw in my soul. I originally wanted to use the origin of our planet to repair it, but my subordinates never gave me the chance. They exploited that flaw to ambush me, which led to my final defeat."
"I don't want you to follow my old path. If possible, we should use a demon god's body from the start. That way, when you reach God King Tier, the damage to your soul cannot be endlessly magnified and exploited by your enemies."
Lu Yang nodded and said gratefully, "Thank you."
The Blazing Demon God chuckled. "No need for formalities between us. We should figure out how to seize a demon god's body instead. Those things aren't easy to take."
Lu Yang asked, "What race are demon gods, exactly?"
The Blazing Demon God smiled
