Of course, although Roy’s strength could eventually improve to an unimaginable number, this definition actually had its drawbacks.

This disadvantage was that he couldn’t obtain a high degree of immediate combat strength at once.

In the early stages, every increase in his strength was negligible, and he had to use a large amount of time to exchange for more increases in strength. Roy calculated that if he wanted to reach the lowest standard of 666 times for the Deadly Sin-level strength, he needed to go through about 6,800 attribute increases. And each increase required 666 days, which was about 1.8 years. It would take more than 12,000 years!

Normally speaking, even as a long-lived demon, 12,000 years was too long for Roy. Beings like demons rarely spent long periods of time sleeping or other means of dormancy.

However, Roy wasn’t too worried about this because he remembered the rumors about him in history. According to the historical records about the Burning Legion in Azeroth, he, the third commander of the Legion, was very mysterious. He always appeared for a while in history before disappearing.

At first, Roy felt that it was a little strange when he saw these records. But after being swept into the spacetime flux, he suddenly understood.

The phenomenon of the spacetime flux had probably not completely disappeared from Roy. He had been pulled out of the spacetime flux this time because Lilith’s feather had brought him out. In other words, he might still be swept into a spacetime flux in the future and then pulled out by Lilith’s feather again. This time-jumping phenomenon was why he mysteriously disappeared.

Moreover, according to the historical records, Roy was generally jumping forward in time. He guessed that this might be due to the spacetime flux gradually subsiding. Only when he returned to the point in the closed time loop would the spacetime flux truly subside.

Roy didn’t know if his guess was right or not. After all, he only knew a little about the power of time. He just felt that time was like a turbulent river, and moving forward in an orderly manner was the general trend. Even time controllers like Murozond and Nozdormu found it very difficult to go against the current. No matter how many eddies and waves they stirred in the River of Time, the power of the River of Time would eventually smooth them out.

After guessing that spacetime flux would continue to happen to him, Roy was even less worried. On the contrary, he was even more certain that this attribute and definition were what he wanted because he knew that every time jump would be a good thing for him due to his explosive increase in strength!

This was the best. Not only could it accelerate the growth of Roy’s strength, but it would give him enough time to adapt to his strength increases.

In that case, there’s only one problem left! Roy rubbed his demon horns thoughtfully. How do I complete my closed time loop…

For Roy to eventually return to the starting point of his time journey, he had to complete what he should do in history during this period! For example, tricking Sargeras into collecting a hundred trillion souls for him…

This was something that Roy had to do because if he didn’t do it, it meant that his timeline would deviate, causing him to walk toward an unknown ending. This chaotic timeline would inevitably cause him to fall into other parallel spacetimes! Moreover, the attribute he set with a hundred trillion souls would suddenly disappear.

Fortunately, I haven’t done too many disruptive actions in history! Roy rejoiced. There aren’t many events to follow. This way, it will be easier to complete the closed time loop.

While Roy was thinking, Rafaro’s voice suddenly sounded in the cabin. “Master, we’ve already entered the edge of the Twisting Nether. I’ve detected a large number of demon signals on a planet ahead! Do you want to take a look?”

“Of course!” Roy nodded. “Finding a gathering place of Twisting Nether demons means getting closer to the titans…”

Roy knew that, as the bravest and strongest Champion of the Pantheon, Sargeras had always been fighting at the front line against demons. The Pantheon wanted to establish order, but the demons of the Twisting Nether brought chaos. There was an irreconcilable conflict between the two sides, so as long as there were demons on a planet, there was a chance of encountering the Pantheon expedition army led by Sargeras.

The Void Seeker soon arrived in orbit above this planet, allowing Roy to see a panoramic view of this planet clearly.

This was… a strange planet. Perhaps because it was at the edge of the Twisting Nether, a fifth of this planet had basically been corroded by Void power. From orbit in space, they could see the gigantic rust-like scars that spread all over this planet. These scars were not gathered together but spread here and there all over the surface of the planet. They were distributed across most of this planet’s land, but there were also many areas that had been corroded in the ocean.

How should Roy put it? It was as though this planet had cancer, and this cancer was still spreading…

These scars corroded by Void power were full of powerful shadow and fel powers. Matter in reality could no longer exist stably and fell into a state of destruction and disintegration. Ordinary creatures couldn’t survive in these places, and only demons from the Twisting Nether could be active in them. Perhaps because these demons had been in contact with Void power for a long time, they had already evolved into symbiotes of the Void. They were active in the areas where the Void corroded this planet, further promoting and accelerating the spread of Void power.

In Rafaro’s detector, these corroded areas were full of demons. They were fighting and devouring each other in these areas, but more often than not, they rushed out of the corrosive areas and spread in all directions.

“Launch some probes!” Roy ordered. “See if there are any natives on this planet!”

Rafaro launched hundreds of Demon Eyes into low-altitude orbit, and then they crossed through the atmosphere of the planet. Soon, the projection of a magnificent and miserable world appeared in front of Roy.

There were indeed natives on this planet. They were a group of intelligent life that was similar to evolved insects. They looked humanoid, but they had compound eyes, six arms, four legs, and cicada wings on their backs that allowed them to fly at low altitudes. These natives called themselves the Akunda, and they called this planet Kunda. Their civilization was still in a relatively primitive society. Roy saw that the weapons in the hands of these Akunda were in the shape of spears. They were not made of metal but similar to bones. The Akunda held these weapons and fought against the demons wreaking havoc on the planet.

The Akunda were a relatively tragic race. Not only was their civilization backward, but they were also very lacking in strength. Although they could use magic, in Roy’s observation, this magic was not very powerful, and it even looked as if they had stolen it from demons. Most of it was shadow magic, and using such magic would cause considerable impact and harm to them. Therefore, the Akunda suffered heavy losses every time they fought against demons.

The only thing that allowed them to persevere was their population. These Akunda were born from eggs, and they had inherited the reproductive ability of insects. They had a vast population, and in battles against demons, they could always use insect sea tactics to repel the attacks.

But this was only struggling at death’s door. At least, the Akundas that Roy observed were full of intense pessimism. The many tribes scattered across the entire planet were disappearing one after another, and the Void was corroding their planet. The existence of demons made their situation worse.

“This planet is finished!” Rafaro asserted. “They will eventually become extinct, and the planet will become a part of the Twisting Nether.”

Roy nodded in agreement with Rafaro’s judgment. In fact, during the expansion of the Twisting Nether, there were probably countless similar planets, and the Akunda was merely a miniature version. Without the help of external forces, the fate of this planet was already destined.

“Master, what should we do?” Rafaro asked. “Go down and gather those demons? The number of souls we can obtain from this planet is not bad.”

Roy thought for a moment and nodded. Indeed, with the population of the Akunda, he could collect a considerable number of souls on this planet. He had exhausted the hundred trillion souls earlier, but his combat strength couldn’t increase in a short time, so he needed to get some more souls as his trump card. After all, according to his next plan, he needed to fight Sargeras head-on. In order to ensure that he would not be killed by Sargeras in a single move, he had to have life-saving methods.

Moreover, compared to the scattered Twisting Nether demons wreaking havoc, wouldn’t an organized and threatening demon army attract the attention of the Pantheon more?

After getting Rafaro to change from the Void Seeker form to the Sky Dragon form, Roy took him and plunged into Kunda…

Lilith had once said that this universe was the oldest universe, which meant that the area of expansion of this universe was incomparably vast. In such a vast universe, the Twisting Nether occupied about one-third of the area, so the range of the edge between it and the material universe was unimaginable.

In a starry sky at the edge of the Twisting Nether, Sargeras was fighting a group of Twisting Nether demons.

Although it was called a fight, it was actually only a one-sided crushing. There were hundreds of millions of demons from the Twisting Nether. They were entrenched on an enormous planet that had almost been corroded by Void power. When Sargeras discovered this planet, these demons of the Twisting Nether even overestimated themselves and attacked him crazily. They flew out of the planet’s atmosphere and came to space, but what they saw was Sargeras’s colossal… face!

Sargeras walked in the universe as a titan. His body was incredibly majestic. This planet was only the size of a basketball in front of him, and the demons flying out of the atmosphere were only existences like little bugs in his eyes.

With an impatient wave of his hand, Sargeras eliminated millions of demons with a slap, as though he were swatting a mosquito. After observing the planet in front of him and finding that there was no hope, he raised Gorshalach in his hand and slashed down.

As Gorshalach’s blade slashed down, endless flames filled the entire planet. The atmosphere and ocean all evaporated, and mountains and canyons instantly collapsed. The demons entrenched on the planet screamed as they were incinerated under this boundless power. A fissure that ran through the entire planet appeared, and then the entire planet collapsed. In a violent explosion, Sargeras completely destroyed this planet.

The ring-shaped aftershock produced by the planet’s explosion spread out in the universe, but when it touched Sargeras’s body, it couldn’t even raise a wave of air.

Sargeras slowly withdrew Gorshalach, but there was no joy of victory on his face. Instead, he shook his head regretfully. Although he didn’t feel the existence of a world-soul on this planet, in any case, this was a planet where intelligent life once existed. He felt pity for these intelligent lives.

I wonder how things are going on Agramma’s side… Sargeras thought as he opened his large hand and grabbed the demons escaping in space.

It had been many years since Sargeras started eliminating demons in the Twisting Nether. He knew very well that the killed demons were only temporary, and they would resurrect in the depths of the Twisting Nether. If he truly wanted to deal with the demons, he had to imprison them.

After Sargeras captured the fleeing demons, a spatial rift opened in front of him. This spatial rift connected to the plane of Mardum. He had specially opened this alternate space plane to imprison these Void demons.

He casually threw the captured demon into the spatial rift. After the rift closed, he embarked on his journey again. His colossal titan body moved very quickly in space.

But before Sargeras could move, a special figure suddenly appeared in front of him.

It was a humanoid body completely made of starlight without any face. This mysterious humanoid object blocked in front of Sargeras and looked very small, but his appearance instantly attracted Sargeras’s attention.

After appearing, he shouted to Sargeras, “Lord Sargeras, a security alert has been triggered in a world of order…”

This starlight-like humanoid object was actually from a mysterious race named the constellar. They were the assistants of the titans of the Pantheon. The titans had placed huge machines and equipment in every world of order that the Pantheon had transformed and established. Through this equipment, they could monitor the place. Once the local evolutionary path deviated from its track, they would immediately take action to clean up the place. The constellar was also one of the monitors. This mysterious race was always on guard for any signs of instability for the Pantheon. If necessary, the constellar would even activate an automatic fail-safe device to eliminate all the life forms in the abnormal world and use this to reset its evolution process.

Of course, Sargeras knew about these constellar. But under normal circumstances, they wouldn’t come to report or seek help. The appearance of this constellar here meant that a world of order was in big trouble.

“What happened?” Sargeras asked.

“A massive demon army is attacking this planet!” the constellar explained. “This demon army isn’t like those demons who are in a state of disunity. They are led by a powerful demon king. With my strength, I’m powerless, so I can only come to you for help.”

“In that case, I’ll go take a look!” Sargeras nodded, but he didn’t care much because, in his eyes, no matter how powerful a demon king was, they were not his match.

However, Sargeras didn’t know that when he arrived, he would embark on a journey of no return…
