Isn't it? Ang ran closer for a distance and looked. It was indeed not. Although they were both demons and their auras were very similar, there were subtle differences, just as some people think all Tauren look the same. These subtle differences couldn't be distinguished by people who weren't familiar with them.

Recognized the wrong person, what to do? Go back? Ang looked back and found that there was a protective shield, he couldn't go back.

With his arrival, the bugs became restless. Under the ground, a bug emerged and suspiciously touched Ang's toe bone with its antennae, feeling a bit puzzled: This thing is hard, is it delicious?

Delicious or not, try it and you'll know. The bug bit down, and with a crack, it broke its mouthparts.

Ang tilted his head and stepped down, bursting out bug juice: Forget it, just hack them to death. Anyway, the bugs have to be killed.

Taking a step, Ang carried the scythe, stepped on a series of footprints, and rushed toward the demon bonfire at high speed.

At the same time Ang jumped off the city wall, the cloaked person and the demon noticed him and laughed out loud: "Useless, scared to death and fell off the city wall."

As soon as he finished speaking, seeing Ang land steadily and run wildly, they changed their words:

"Yo, not scared and fell off, but jumped off himself? A fearless warrior? Heroically facing the sea of bugs alone, writing a fearless heroic epic, too magnificent. Wait a moment, let the bugs gnaw slowly, let him watch himself being gnawed into a skeleton frame, fulfill him, hehehe..."

"Uh, why do I feel he looks a bit familiar." He had been soul-searched, his soul was broken, and his memory was incomplete. He only felt familiar, but couldn't remember where he had seen him.

"Two more jumped down, a little girl? One wearing armor, what is that curved thing in his hand? Hoe? Oh my god, it's that group of people from the cave! Life acceleration!"

The cloaked person was so scared that he sat on the ground, and the fear of growing too fast and getting stuck in a stone crack welled up in his heart.

"You know these people? Are they very strong? What he has in his hand is the Reaper's Scythe, are they undead creatures?" The demon face on the bonfire burned with a puzzled expression.

The demon's words seemed to give the cloaked person strength: That's right, he was already a person who had sold his soul. With a demon covering him, it seemed he didn't need to fear life acceleration?

Climbing up quickly, the cloaked person flattered: "Of course not as powerful as you, my lord, but their methods are too weird, they actually know life acceleration."

The demon sneered at the cloaked person's words: "Probably some kind of illusion, life acceleration? Do you know what life acceleration represents? That's a divine skill. Are you trying to tell me that there is a god among the people in front?"

The cloaked person shook his head: "Impossible, impossible, how could gods run around everywhere, but they really know life acceleration."

"Maybe it's some type of divine art. Alright then, I curse you, I curse you to be immortal, forever suffering the torture of time." The demon condensed on the bonfire stared at the cloaked person and cursed viciously.

The cloaked person only felt some kind of power descend on his body, and then something disappeared from his body.

"Immortal? Is this a curse? Isn't this a blessing?" The cloaked person touched himself suspiciously, didn't find anything missing, and muttered.

"Hehe, whatever you gain, you will inevitably lose something. You sold your soul to get a chance at rebirth. If you want to be immortal, the price might not be something you can afford," the demon said with a smile.

"What price?" The cloaked person couldn't help but ask. Immortal, what an alluring word.

"For example, being imprisoned forever," the demon replied nonchalantly.

The cloaked person shivered. Immortal, but to be imprisoned forever? That would be better to die early. Sure enough, there was no such cheap deal.

"Then what about me now?" The cloaked person asked fearfully. Could it be that what he lost just now was freedom?

"A temporary curse, unaffected by life for a period of time. What is lost is a period of energy and spirit, just feeling weak and sleepy. As for you, how is your bone soup coming along?" The demon said lightly.

The cloaked person always felt that the demon's words were not entirely true, but he couldn't find anything wrong. Distracted by the bone soup, he went back to look at the soup.

A large pot was set up behind him, inside which various cow, sheep, and horse bones were being boiled. The bugs couldn't gnaw on bones, and wherever they passed, they left behind piles of white bones. It was just right to pick some animal bones to boil soup, because he also wanted to drink some.

Seeing that the soup color had turned white, the cloaked person scooped a bit to try and immediately said excitedly: "Delicious, let me tell you, there are techniques to boiling bone soup. If you want to boil a milky white soup that isn't fishy and is delicious, you can't miss any of the tricks. You must first roast the bones with fire, then put them in cold water, skim off the blood foam, and boil slowly over a low fire..."

The cloaked person muttered, couldn't wait to scoop another bowl, and sipped it.

Is it that delicious? The demon was so tempted that he couldn't help but lick his lips. Unfortunately, he couldn't eat it and could only shout: "Move aside!"

The bonfire jumped up twice as high, and an invisible force rolled up the bone soup in the large pot, floating in the air.

Then, the flame light of the bonfire floated over and combined into a flame magic array not far from the bone soup.

The demon's voice rang out: "¥…#*(@¥#,obey my summons, appear!... Alright, the summoning is done, it depends on how delicious your bone soup is. The more delicious it is, the more powerful the dog summoned will be."

Ang, who was rushing from afar, also saw the situation here. Nai Nai Ge Li Si shouted in his soul: "Not good, they are summoning something. What is that? Bone soup? Not good! They are summoning a Hellhound, quick, hit those soups!"

At this distance, Ang's magic wasn't that long. The only thing that could reach was Holy Light Shine.

"Ao!" Ang roared without looking back.

"Ao!" The little angel immediately responded, stopped, opened her wings, and pushed her hands forward... opened her wings and pushed her hands forward...

After opening twice, the little angel looked back and remembered that her wings were tucked away.

"Ao!" The little angel called out forcefully, helplessly raised her palms to shoulder height, and spread her hands.

Not enough reach, she could only watch helplessly as the summoning magic array formed. A black shadow darted out from the array, and after landing, it barked wildly in a milky voice!

"Uh... is this a puppy? A little Pekingese? Legend has it that Hellhounds love drinking bone soup the most. The more delicious the bone soup boiled, the more powerful the Hellhound summoned. This pot of bone soup must be very difficult to drink," Nai Nai Ge Li Si muttered.

The cloaked person and the demon were also stunned. A puppy?

"Is your soup really delicious?" The demon asked in a low voice.

"Of course it's delicious, I drank a large bowl myself. Could it be that you demons don't like my way of doing things? Do you like that kind of fishy, turbid soup with blood foam floating?" The cloaked person defended.

Just at this moment, the puppy shook its head, its entire head split open, divided into three heads, swelled rapidly, and then darted forward.

It was as if a giant beast had darted out from the puppy's body. This giant dog with three heads bit the bone soup with its middle head, sucked the soup dry with a slurp, and then narrowed all six eyes.

This happy expression was the greatest affirmation of the bone soup.

"I told you it was delicious," the cloaked person said hurriedly.

After sucking the soup, it chewed its mouth, and the bones were all chewed into powder and swallowed. The Hellhound, which even ate the bones, suddenly said in demonic language with its right head: "¥%#……,@*¥……"

The demon replied: "……,#¥".

The Hell three-headed dog sighed with regret and turned to meet Ang.

The cloaked person asked urgently: "What did you say?"

"Oh, the dog said 'not enough to eat', I said 'no, boil more later'," the demon replied casually.

The cloaked person felt strange. Why say 'no' to 'not enough to eat'? But demons can't lie, so the cloaked person could only choose to believe it.

Yes, demons in a trading state cannot lie, but they can omit things. For example, the sentence just now, what the Hellhound said was: Not enough to eat, can this person be eaten?

In order to eat the bone soup boiled again as soon as possible, the Hellhound was very active. It pounced, and the middle big head opened its bloody mouth and bit Ang fiercely.

"Die, the Hell three-headed dog is a powerful existence guarding the abyss hell, its teeth can chew steel into powder..." The cloaked person muttered. Before he finished speaking, he saw the Hellhound jump away screaming.

They saw Ang slam a fist into the Hellhound's gums, breaking a sharp tooth that could bite through steel.

"Woo~ woo woo~~" The Hellhound held its mouth with its two front paws and whimpered, looking exactly like a person with inflamed gums who had bitten into something hard.

Ang put away the Reaper's Scythe and raised his hands. The Hellhound was so big that the Reaper's Scythe and magic weren't easy to use, not as good as the Hand of Locke and the Hand of Dimensional Passage. The Hand of Locke was much harder than steel.

The Hellhound's middle head was in too much pain to open its mouth, so the two heads on the left and right stretched out and bit fiercely.

Ang's Hand of Dimensional Passage slammed into the nose of the head on the right, and the Hand of Locke slammed into the gums of the head on the left, breaking another tooth.

"Woo woo woo~~~" The Hell three-headed dog whimpered again. This time, all three heads were whimpering, crying while saying in demonic language: "%#¥@…*@*!#"

Nai Nai Ge Li Si could understand demonic language and immediately replied unhappily: "Were you cheated? Do you know who is in front of you? You came to sell your life for a pot of bone soup? And you're asking who we are?"

"%%#¥@……" The Hell three-headed dog squatted down, covered the mouths of the two heads on the left and right with its claws, and the middle head said.

"Fine, fine, Ang, pick up the broken tooth on the ground and break it for it to see," Nai Nai Ge Li Si said.

Ang picked up a broken tooth of the three-headed dog from the ground, held it with the Hand of Locke, and broke it gently, easily breaking it into two pieces.

The Hell three-headed dog jolted and squatted straighter.

Ang broke it again, three pieces, then again, four pieces.

The Hell three-headed dog looked in disbelief at its teeth, which were harder and sharper than steel, being broken into small segments in Ang's hands.

Every time a segment broke, it shivered, its body size shrank a circle, and before long it shrank back to the appearance of the original little Pekingese, whimpered, and patted its small claws on the ground.

A magic array appeared, the little Pekingese turned its head and barked outward: "#¥@%!", then drilled into the array and disappeared.

The demon and the cloaked person not far away were dumbfounded and asked in a mutter: "This is... ran away? What did it say?"

The demon replied distractedly: "It said: Idiots, you killed me."

Even the Hell three-headed dog was scared away. Is the person in front so strong?

"No, I don't believe it, my sea of bugs is invincible. Protect me, protect me, bugs, bite them to death!" The cloaked person shouted in a panic.

The ocean of bugs set off a tsunami. On the ground, the 'carpet' composed of bugs surged and moved, rushing toward Ang's position from all directions, slapping him like a tide.

There were too many. Ang stepped down forcefully, pulled the little angel and little zombie into his arms and hugged them, and then was submerged by the tide of bugs.

The cloaked person muttered anxiously: "In the face of absolute quantity, the individual is the most useless. Even if you grind, you can grind you to death. Life acceleration is even better. Life acceleration can let my children evolve. Last time I just had too few bugs, otherwise I could have exhausted you to death. It just depends on who can exhaust whom!"

Soon, a slope bulged where Ang stood. That was a slope composed of bug corpses.

The bugs gnawed desperately at the corpses of their own kind, while desperately drilling inside, gnawing while drilling while growing, growing from small beetles to large beetles, and then dying, their corpses gnawed by their own kind, the same process repeated constantly.

As the bugs surged, the cloaked person noticed some strange changes. The types of bugs were constantly increasing, their body sizes were getting larger and larger, and some even grew huge mouthparts.

"Evolved, evolved, life acceleration is accelerating their evolution," the cloaked person said excitedly. When he was in the cave, he cleverly used Ang's Instant Death Aura to cultivate a few human-shaped bugs.

Now, although he wasn't deliberately cultivating them, as long as the quantity came up, the bugs would definitely devour each other to produce the most powerful bug king.

However, as the bug corpses piled up more and more, he didn't notice that the growth rate of some bugs was getting faster and faster, so fast that they died of old age before they could even gnaw on the corpses of their own kind.

An hour passed, two hours passed, three hours later, the bug carpet that originally covered the entire earth had now shrunk into a small mountain, and the mountain was full of bug corpses.

Because it was driven by the cloaked person, all the bugs rushed over, coming very cleanly. There wasn't a single bug left in the other places.

However, the scene the cloaked person expected didn't happen. The bugs didn't devour each other to evolve the most powerful bug king, but all kicked their legs and died.

The last bug twitched its legs, rolled up from the bug corpse mountain, and rolled to the cloaked person's feet.

The small mountain formed by bug corpses had already piled up to his feet.

"How could this be? How could this be? Impossible, right? Isn't there life acceleration? Why didn't they evolve? There were some last time," the cloaked person muttered distractedly.

A ball of flame burned in the corpse mountain. Wherever it passed, the bug corpses turned into ash, thus burning a path out of thin air. Ang's group walked out from inside.

"What's impossible about it? This time it's not just life acceleration, there's also insecticide," the Brass Dragon's voice rang out on Ang's body.

And the demon face on the bonfire had quietly disappeared at some unknown time, obviously realizing something was wrong and running away in advance.

The little angel angrily clenched her small fists, and holy light was sacrificed on her fists. Although Ang had already protected her, she was still bitten by bugs several times. She was now a real angel, not a skeleton wearing skin and flesh, and she would feel pain.

"Ah! Holy light? So you are people from the Light Church?" The cloaked person woke up and knelt on the ground with a thud: "Don't kill me, I'll buy indulgence tickets, three!"

"Eh, these lines are a bit familiar, is it you? The one from the underground of the Dark City? Weren't you soul-searched?" Nai Nai Ge Li Si called out in surprise.

"I..." The cloaked person just said one word, and a phantom of a parchment suddenly appeared in front of him. Then the phantom burned rapidly, and green light also sprayed out from the cloaked person's eyes, ears, mouth, and nose, and he screamed miserably.

"So it turns out he sold his soul and was resurrected by a demon," Nai Nai Ge Li Si realized.

Ang suddenly sacrificed the scythe and hacked it onto the burning parchment phantom.
