Roy was currently unaware of this. Even if he knew, he would probably be stupefied. Xeron was definitely fooled. Roy had photoshopped his demon wings, and it had nothing to do with the purity or impurity of his bloodline. On the contrary, in the system’s evaluation, Roy’s bloodline was very complex, and the system said that he had at least four different demon bloodlines.
At least four meant that there might be more. Eight or even sixteen were possible! How could such a bloodline be considered pure?
After a while, Roy walked into the pool.
The other low-rank demons refining their bloodlines in the pool did not interfere with each other. Roy initially thought that it was because they knew the rules here, but he realized that this was not the case when he entered the pool.
The moment he entered the pool, Roy only felt an inexplicable fear creep into his body!
This fear came from this purplish-red liquid. It was very viscous, not like water, but rather like real demon blood. It also contained very powerful energy, so powerful that every demon that entered the pool produced a feeling that they were incapable of resisting it, which transformed into a strong sense of fear. This was the real reason why all the demons in the pool stayed motionless.
In the Abyss, there had always been a legend spreading among demons about these places of refinement. Legend had it that the purplish-red liquid that made demons feel dread was actually the blood of demon kings! Blood that came from demons stronger and more terrifying than high-rank demons and even demon lords, it was the blood of demon kings!
It was unknown whether this legend was true or not, but Roy felt a boundless force corroding his body when he was soaking in the liquid.
This force quickly seeped into his skin and continuously rushed all over his body in a berserk manner. Under these circumstances, Roy’s heart began to beat wildly, and the magic power stored within was being rapidly consumed.
This situation surprised Roy. He could sense the danger brought by this force.
He finally understood why low-rank demons needed to accumulate enough magic power before coming to a place of refinement. This force would drive the magic power of the demons to constantly stimulate their hearts and bodies. It was hard to imagine what outcome this process would lead to when their magic power was suddenly drained.
Just as Roy was feeling a little nervous, a prompt came from the system.
“It is detected that an external force is trying to change the host’s genes. It is possible that the force might cause the host’s bloodline to evolve, but it may also lead to the evolution failing. Should it be intercepted?”
Hmm? Roy was a little surprised, but then he understood. The customization system controlled his bloodline and genes. Otherwise, how could Roy achieve his modifications and additions? However, the liquid containing powerful energy seemed to have a similar effect, so the system noticed it.
“Possible failure? What do you mean?” Roy asked the system.
“Because the host’s demon bloodline is relatively complex, this force will stimulate a random bloodline, awakening it as the main bloodline!” the system replied. “This method has flaws and may conflict with other recessive bloodlines, causing the evolution to fail.”
“Is that so…” Roy pondered before asking the system, “Since you can stop it, does it mean that you can also control this power?”
“Yes!” the system replied affirmatively. “The system can intervene in the evolution process after consuming a certain amount of souls!”
