Or to be more accurate, it led to a demi-plane.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, compared to the demi-planes she had encountered in the past, this one was completely barren, looking more like an empty field than a world.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The only thing as far as Liora could see was a colossal tree dividing the sky into two, as well as a small square stone right beside it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The eyes of Liora’s clone only stayed on the square for a brief moment before they quickly shifted onto the tree.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She first took a look at its massive trunk before focusing on one of its many branches.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She could sense that this branch was different from the rest. It was unique.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Not only because it carried a powerful aura of life, as if the Goddess of Life had descended here, but also because a plump, appetizing fruit was growing on it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even though the person seeing it was merely a clone and not her real body, the soul of the real Liora outside the formation was also affected.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She had an instinctive yearning for the fruit, as if obtaining it and devouring it would grant her great benefit.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A whisper rang in her mind, telling her to rush in and grab it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Liora, however, did not rush to take action.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was only after controlling the clone and investigating the demi-plane several times, confirming that there was no danger, that her real body finally rose to its feet.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just like the clone before her, Liora’s real body also took a step forward and easily passed through the formation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Soon, the clone and the real body met within the demi-plane, one standing beside the other.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It’s good that I can take it back. Each clone consumes a large amount of Indestructible Matter.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"If they die, this Indestructible Matter would be lost forever, and I would have to work hard to recover.\", Liora breathed a sigh of relief and controlled the clone to disperse.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Instantly, the clone exploded, transforming into blood, skin, and flesh that flew towards her broken palm and wove into a new one.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Indestructible Matter that Liora had previously consumed was quickly replenished, only losing a small part of it in the process.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Liora was not heartbroken, though. Or rather, she didn’t care to pay attention right now.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her focus was on the fruit growing on the tree’s branch, as its mere smell had caused both her body and soul to tremble violently.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was only when Liora came in person that she understood the true value of this fruit.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Most likely, it was an earth-shattering treasure, one worthy of even Archdevils fighting over.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Liora’s mind moved, and she began combing through her memories, trying to find any mention of the fruit.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A couple of seconds later, she had an answer.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Surprisingly, the fruit’s information was not contained in her bloodline memories, but in the intelligence she had previously purchased from the Astral Pavilion.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Reincarnation Fruit.\", Liora muttered its name subconsciously.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Little was known about this fruit, and it was only briefly mentioned in the intelligence, merely in passing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The reason why it was even mentioned was not because of the fruit itself, but because an Archdevil of Hollow City had devoured one in its youth.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Since it was mentioned only in passing, the function of the Reincarnation Fruit was difficult to discern.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>All that was known was that devouring it could improve the quality and strength of a person’s soul.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This tidbit, coupled with the extreme yearning emanating from her soul that was urging her to move forward, let Liora know that she was not mistaken:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This fruit was indeed the Reincarnation Fruit, a supreme treasure that fitted her future plans perfectly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Unfortunately...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Such treasures have a very long gestation time.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Although the Reincarnation Fruit has already formed and looks about to be born, it’s in fact very far from truly blossoming.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Liora sized up the fruit and concluded:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It would take at least tens of thousands of years for it to be born.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In fact, such a time was relatively short for a treasure of this level.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, the total gestation time of a Reincarnation Fruit was numbered in millions of years. For it, tens of thousands of years were nothing, and it could be considered to have reached its final stage.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Unfortunately, not to mention whether Liora was willing to wait or not for such a long time, even if she were, she wouldn’t have had the chance to make a choice.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She was not in a safe location at the moment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even though this demi-plane was covered in a powerful formation, she didn’t believe that she would be able to stay in here forever.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sooner or later, she would be forced to leave, whether as a result of the Zerg Queen’s plans or because of the Universe Chamber of Commerce.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thinking of this, a trace of reluctance arose within Liora.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She stared at the Reincarnation Fruit hanging from the branch, and hesitated whether she should just pick it off.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although doing so was bound to decrease this fruit’s value and its effects would deteriorate significantly, this was still better than getting nothing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Liora contemplated for a while, trying to think of ideas to deal with this predicament.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A few minutes later, her eyes lit up.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Glancing at the tree and then at the Greater Devil remains outside the demi-plane, she soon had an idea.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It’s fine if it works. If it fails, I will lose a couple of Greater Devil remains at most.\", she thought secretly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Having decided to give it a try, she did not hesitate any longer.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her hand reached out and bypassed the formation, leaving the demi-plane and grabbing the remains of the elderly Devil and the undead creatures lying outside.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Once she took her hand back and brought them into the formation, she took a step forward and approached the tree.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The ring coiling around her finger shook as she did.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The black serpent’s maw opened wide, and it suddenly gained life, flicking its tail before becoming bigger.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Soon, the serpent surrounded Liora and transformed into an illusory, translucent river.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Liora stared at the river, and a faint fluctuation flashed inside her crimson eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The river’s flowing waves were reflected in her pupils, and each droplet seemed to contain scenes that had already happened or were destined to occur in the future.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For a moment, Liora was immersed in those scenes, causing her body to also become illusory, as if she were about to integrate with a river.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fortunately, her body suddenly trembled and jolted her awake, clearing her confusion away.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The power of time is indeed incredible.\", Liora couldn’t help but let out a sigh with some sweat on her forehead.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Snake of Time is created through my own technique, yet I almost lost myself and became part of it.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Fortunately, my will is strong enough and the Snake of Time is only at the first level.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Otherwise, it would have been difficult to wake up.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Snake of Time was not the real River of Time after all.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Liora understood that the scenes contained in its droplets were all fake, merely the result of her own imagination of what the future would be.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was why she was able to wake up at the end.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If she were to meet the real River of Time, let alone Liora, even the strongest Archdevil would have instantly perished.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Having had this experience, Liora didn’t dare to look at the illusory river any longer.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Taking a deep breath, she stretched out her hand and let her skin trace along its surface before lightly flicking it with her fingers.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Instantly, several drops of water shot out and rushed towards the tree.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Once they fell onto its surface, an invisible light flashed, and time around it blurred.\u003C\u002Fp>",1426,"2026-06-03T10:39:03.948Z",1,"novelbin.me","b0080ba958d81b8f4bfe9e1a264d7afb56618407956fd0837b3e4e5aad6e286b","evolution-from-little-devil-to-devil-empress-chapter-295","evolution-from-little-devil-to-devil-empress-chapter-294",482,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fevolution-from-little-devil-to-devil-empress-cover.jpg"]
