Chapter 171: Fel Infusion, Sargeras's Insight, Rising to a Higher Level

Sargeras appeared very generous, making a heavy promise to Luode. Speaking frankly, if Luode didn't deceive him and the plan could really be carried out smoothly, then the entire Burning Legion would not be as valuable as this in his eyes.

The demons of the Burning Legion, Sargeras didn't even regard them as people; this lot were just cannon fodder, and even after destroying the whole world, these demons would also be destroyed.

Ma Ke Zha Er, standing aside, looked at Luode with envy—this is the Burning Legion's third commander! His status equals that of Archimonde and Lord Kil'jaeden, and he will also receive Sargeras's personal fel infusion—what an honor! He is almost dying of envy; as a direct descendant of Archimonde, he dreams of being personally infused with fel power by Sargeras.

How powerful is the fel energy personally infused by Sargeras? Since the Burning Legion's founding, only two beings have ever received his personal fel infusion.

One is Kil'jaeden, the other Archimonde; the rest of the demons' fel energy comes from infusions by Kil'jaeden and Archimonde.

Or Sargeras creates some fel‑infested planets for them to absorb fel energy on their own.

This is the power Gul'dan once dreamed of, the thing countless Burning Legion demons long for; I never expected this guy, who just joined the Legion, to receive such a supreme boon.

"You are truly generous, Lord Sargeras—shall we begin now? Perform the fel infusion on me here." Luode asked.

"You must come to the Twisting Nether yourself! To the Burning Throne on Argus—if done from a distance, I can indeed infuse you with fel energy, but the power would be far too weak; I need to give you immensely great strength." Sargeras flashed a mysterious smile and said.

"Lord Sargeras, I think it's feasible here too; I have a little trick for opening a spatial gate—I can open a temporary portal so you can personally infuse me with fel energy." Luode said.

"Are you afraid to come, or just unwilling?" Sargeras asked.

"I won't overlook the life force on you! You also have an unclear relationship with Azeroth."

"But it doesn't matter; Sargeras doesn't care either."

"Then let's do it here! Lord Sargeras, after you infuse me with fel energy, I will immediately go to the Black Temple to slay Illidan."

"Then let your avatar possess his body, and afterward bring me to another world so I can verify whether what I said is true." Luode refused to go to the Twisting Nether.

"Then let me see! Let me see the power of the gems; if what you say is true, then Azeroth may or may not matter to me."

With the power of six Infinity Stones, as long as I can successfully create life, death, chaos, order, holy light, shadow, six Infinity Stones.

"Then the Void Lord will absolutely not be my opponent." Sargeras said.

Luode took a deep breath, then produced a magic energy crystal containing spatial energy, aimed it at Sargeras's projection, and activated the spatial energy within.

A spatial force so vast it beggared imagination began to rend the entire Twisting Nether and the interface with reality, directly opening a portal taller than a person.

On the other side was the Burning Throne on Argus, the abode of the Dark Titan Sargeras—a sky‑piercing, earth‑spanning giant seated upon his throne.

Prince Ma Ke Zha Er, upon seeing that sky‑high giant seated opposite, immediately dropped to his knees, his legs going weak from fear.

"Hahaha! It looks like you can come through this portal to my presence—come closer, kid, come to me." Sargeras roared with laughter, looking at Luode.

"This Karazhan tower is quite close to the Twisting Nether; opening a portal here would place you right where I am, kid."

At this moment, Luode felt a bit embarrassed—damn it, I only wanted to open a tiny portal, but I ended up opening one I could pass through, yet Sargeras couldn't.

However, Luode had good reason to suspect that Sargeras secretly pulled a little trick, making his opened portal slightly larger.

"Forget it! He who fears loss will never catch the wolf—I've already shown enough value; if Sargeras dares to play tricks, Luode will immediately use spatial power to flee."

Spatial power capable of crossing worlds cannot be held by Sargeras either.

Luode took a deep breath, lifted his foot, and slowly stepped through the portal, arriving in the Twisting Nether, before Sargeras on Argus.

Only when truly facing Sargeras could one feel how mighty the Dark Titan's strength really is.

"Hmm! You are brave; if you stood before the door and didn't step forward, I would look down on you."

"But you stepped forward, proving your courage to me—you dare to confront me directly, a boldness that neither Kil'jaeden nor Archimonde possesses." Sargeras, looking at the utterly tiny human before him, said.

"Great Dark Titan Sargeras, although there was a small mishap, I have now arrived before you."

Luode beheld the sky‑high, earth‑spanning red giant before him—his body immensely huge, larger than a planet, standing there before him.

"Don't worry—I know what's on your mind; your own power is already strong, even stronger than the power Archimonde and Kil'jaeden had when they received their boons, and you can withstand even greater fel energy."

"Now stand ready, kid!" After saying this, Sargeras raised his palm.

A crimson energy tinged with green light shot from Sargeras's palm and struck Luode.

Luode instantly felt an unimaginable vast force begin to fill his body; his body absorbed this massive power while secretly opening the Emerald Dream's sigil to start drawing in fel energy.

"Your body is like a bottomless pit—take as much as you can! Don't be polite."

Sargeras looked at Luode with astonishment—this kid's life structure is extraordinarily peculiar!

Although the infusion of life force elevated him to demigod status, both fel energy and life force have found a balance within him.

As long as this balance remains unbroken, this kid can perfectly wield this power without any side effects.

This is something even Sargeras himself cannot achieve, for even as a Dark Titan he would be corrupted by fel energy, and even his weapons would shatter on their own.

Yet this mortal life form can do it—could this also be a benefit gained in the alien universe?

After mastering fel energy, the Titan's power of order was not lost, but because fel energy is overwhelmingly strong, this force was also suppressed.

If a perfect balance between fel and order could be found, Sargeras would be confident in mastering these two primal forces, and even controlling the shadow primal force within the Twisting Nether.

In Luode, Sargeras saw a further possibility for himself, and therefore he valued Luode all the more.

Sargeras began to observe Luode's power—the three‑color Haki and the Devil Fruit powers of the One Piece world—giving this Dark Titan a completely new insight.

This fel infusion did not, like the previous life‑force infusion, last nearly ten days.

Back then Luode was a mortal‑level life form, but now he has advanced to demigod, his life rank higher and able to contain greater energy.

Thus, in just three short days, Sargeras completed the fel infusion.

At this point, the life force and fel energy within Luode are equal; previously life force held the edge, but now fel energy has caught up.

The two forces formed a perfect circulation within Luode's body, while excess fel energy was stored in the Emerald Dream's sigil.

After this fel infusion, Luode's power increased further, although he has not yet left the demigod tier.

However, in terms of strength he has now matched, and even surpassed, Kil'jaeden and Archimonde.

"Thank you, Lord Sargeras, you are truly generous." Luode bowed to Sargeras.

"Don't mention it; this time infusing you with fel energy also let me see something different—within you the two forces have formed a perfect balance."

"These days, besides infusing you with fel energy, I have been observing this balance and the power of another world, and I have gained insight."

"You have given me the opportunity to perhaps perfectly balance chaos and order." Sargeras stroked his chin, thoughtfully answering Luode.

With such a perfect test subject before him, how could Sargeras abandon observing Luode? The two forces within him balance and interact with each other, and Sargeras has already seen through it.

It only takes some time, and I can regain the power of order, freely switching between demon and titan forms.

Luode was also shocked upon hearing this, 'Holy shit, no way!'

Could it be that I was merely infused with fel energy once, and actually helped Sa Zong level up? At this moment, Sargeras clenched his fist, and a black power covered his fist—Armament Haki.

At the same time, a world-shaking pressure also pressed toward Luode—this is Conqueror's Haki and Observation Haki.

"I need to train for a while; the balance power inside you is interesting, demon transformation and switching to titan form are also interesting, right?" Sargeras said.

"." Luode.

Holy crap! I came to freeload, but it seems I got freeloaded instead! (End of chapter)
