After the transaction with the Void Bank ended, Jiang Ziliu felt somewhat regretful. After all, the Cosmic Void Bank had many good items, but he could only exchange them for a small portion.
Most of the high-level resources he traded came from valuable items in the Ancient Battlefield.
The Cosmic Void Bank was even more satisfied. Jiang Ziliu, this mysterious Human Race Galaxy Rank expert, was much richer than an ordinary Galaxy Rank expert. This time, they earned three times more resources than in a normal transaction.
The fluid Cosmic Void Bank operates on the principle of not opening for business normally, but making enough to sustain itself for three years when it does.
This time, they earned even more.
They could earn even more by taking the scarce resources from Jiang Ziliu to other river systems and selling them.
Jiang Ziliu continued forward, heading towards the Andromeda Galaxy.
Soon after, he arrived at a remote, desolate area in the Andromeda Galaxy.
But what struck him as odd was that the Andromeda Galaxy possessed a peculiar aura, as if it were a lifeless galaxy.
He looked at the nearest star with life on it and understood why.
It turns out that this is the territory of a powerful and special clan.
The Demon Race!
This is a terrifying race that absolutely believes in the law of the jungle and absolute chaos. They are widely distributed throughout the universe and are the most powerful and ferocious force among those who invaded Blue Water Star.
Their actions were actually relatively restrained, given that other invaders aimed to plunder resources and establish outposts.
Only the Demon Race truly desires to invade and devour the flesh and blood of the Blue Water Star people.
This Devil Race shares similarities with the demons Jiang Ziliu imagined in his previous life, but there are also many differences.
What they have in common is that the Demon Race has an extremely strong reproductive ability.
Each female demon can produce one hundred million demon eggs at a time, which are then incubated in a hatchery with only one percent of the resources available for infants.
Because of the scarcity of resources, these little devils are born into a world where the strong prey on the weak.
From infancy, they begin to plunder resources, devour each other, and kill one percent of them. Only one percent survive infancy, while the rest become food for other little demons as they grow.
Therefore, every little devil that grows up is extremely cruel, vicious, ruthless, and cunning.
Even after they leave the hatchery, it doesn't mean they are safe and sound.
During this period, they will receive compulsory education and learn various kinds of knowledge, including information about other races in the universe.
But these all concern the strengths and weaknesses of other races, and what methods can be used to weaken the enemy.
When they reach the age to contract beasts, they will all go through the process together.
However, the demons modified the contract, adding a special fusion technique.
Their contractual beast taming wasn't a true contract, but rather a forced one, a fusion of the beast into their own bodies.
After fusion, they will become a new combined life form, containing both the consciousness of the demon beast tamer and the consciousness of the beast tamer.
Demon Beastmasters, on the other hand, must use secret techniques to devour the souls of their tamed beasts with minimal backlash.
This process is extremely dangerous; if they are not careful, they could be devoured by the beast's consciousness and transformed into a truly deformed and ferocious beast.
After completing the absorption of consciousness, the Devil Race completely merged with its beast tamer, never to be separated again. The two lives were thus fused into a new life form.
Therefore, most demons have extremely strange and ugly appearances.
At the same time, they fought solely on their own.
However, although the risks were controlled during the process of the demon fusing with the beast's flesh, they were still extremely high.
Therefore, the probability of demons perishing in this process is as high as 70%.
However, 25% of the demons who complete the fusion will develop a fusion disease, rendering them unable to exert any power.
Such beings would become slaves to other demons, or even food.
Only five percent of the group, having acquired stronger physical bodies and more powerful skills, are themselves formidable combat forces.
They were not taming beasts, but devouring and plundering them to forge an even more powerful version of themselves.
No one knows the origin of demons, but because of this method of cultivation, they are mostly powerful, cruel, chaotic, cunning, and extremely ruthless. They have a fighting spirit far exceeding that of ordinary life forms and are more focused on their own interests.
They are an extremely terrifying existence to other races in the universe.
At the same time, demons are also classified as quasi -Evil God, and are the targets of a secret campaign launched by all races in the entire universe.
However, there are many top-tier powerhouses among the demons, which makes countless races wary, thus preventing the Demon Race from being completely wiped out.
After all, while this training method is cruel, it is more likely to produce truly top-tier experts.
Now, the entire Andromeda Galaxy has been invaded and even controlled by the Demon Race. However, according to the information he had previously obtained, the Andromeda Galaxy was a galaxy jointly controlled by an interstellar federation composed of many races.
The fact that no news has been released so far only indicates that the Demon Race's invasion of the Andromeda Galaxy is quite unusual and was not accomplished through conventional warfare.
The only means they can use is internal control, undermining the resistance of the upper echelons of the Andromeda Galaxy from the core, thereby facilitating their control over the entire Andromeda Galaxy.
On the life-bearing planet that Jiang Ziliu observed, everything else was normal.
However, all Wisdom life on this planet is controlled by a hidden, transparent thread, without their knowledge.
The vast net of silk threads covered all Wisdom life on the entire planet, leaving no blind spots.
At the heart of this vast network lies beneath the very center of power on the planet.
Above ground are the leaders of the entire planet, seemingly going about their normal work, but a small dimensional space has been created underground.
This place is teeming with demons, surrounded by pools of blood. The mysteriously vanished Wisdom life forms have become its prey, turning this place into a unique slaughterhouse of flesh and blood.
Demons crave blood as their food because their unique beast-taming synthesis method allows them to awaken two special abilities if they survive.
The first method involves drawing a portion of the soul's power from the flesh and blood of Wisdom beings, and obtaining some of their memories, including Wisdom, knowledge, and life experience.
The second type is the ability to plunder some of the skills of Wisdom life forms.
The probability is low, but it does exist.
Therefore, every kind of demon is an extremely terrifying creature, and the longer a demon lives, the more terrifying it becomes.
Because you can never know how much strength, skills, life Wisdom, and knowledge they have accumulated.
The demons are basically the ones who become more terrifying the longer they live.
Those demons who can live to the level of high-ranking God are basically top-tier powerhouses within their respective ranks.
This is the fundamental reason why, despite all the trouble they've caused, the Demon Race has not been wiped out.
Their top experts are too powerful; it's really not worth fighting them to the death.
Of course, demons often hunt and frequently launch invasions, but they never stay in one place for too long.
Because if the blood-eating creatures are controlled for too long, they will lose their civilization, Wisdom, and power, making them useless to the demons.
So they will leave, and there won't be any massacre.
The remaining civilizations and races will then have a chance to revive.
In the eyes of the demons, the entire universe is their playground; necessary restoration is acceptable, and they can harvest their wealth periodically.
It's also because they're like wandering pirates, only invading and controlling a star system for a short period before leaving, that the powerful beings of the universe haven't been determined to encircle and annihilate them.
The planet that Jiang Ziliu is now paying attention to is very special, because at the center of all the transparent threads, the controller of this planet is actually a Succubus.
While Succubus excel at control, they are relatively weak in actual combat, placing them among the lowest ranks of the Demon Race.
But looking at the situation in the space below, this Succubus was sitting on a high throne like a queen, and all the demons below were extremely respectful to her, even kneeling and licking the Succubus Queen.
This Succubus possesses power at the level of Stellar-Rank God; she's quite strong!
But it's quite interesting that demons below her, Stellar-Rank God, still submit to her.
"At the heart of this galaxy, there lingers the scent of a fragment of me!"
It was at this moment that the Ancient Tree of Wisdom revealed a situation that caught Jiang Ziliu's attention.
He had a feeling that there might be some connection between the fragments of the Ancient Tree of Wisdom and the Succubus.
