As the demon energy gradually diminished, the Nightmare Knights, who originally wore blood-red armor full of evil aura, holding a knight spear made of white bones in their right hand and a knight shield imprinted with demon patterns in their left hand, all grew taller.
If previously they were riding on nightmares the size of fine steeds, now they were mounted on the king of horses.
Every nightmare beast beneath the Nightmare Knights had a shoulder height exceeding two ters, and combined with the knight seated on them, the Nightmare Knights were well over three ters tall!
Moreover, the knight spears in their hands beca even more nacing, with lengths exceeding six ters!
The blood-red armor that exuded an evil aura beca thicker, heavier, and more solid.
Even the knight shield that originally only covered a small part of their body grew imnsely large, making it easy for Bai Yan, who was close to two ters tall, to hide beneath it.
Aside from this, what Bai Yan anticipated the most was the enhancent of their combat power.
Whether it be the spears or the shields, they were rely surface enhancents; the true extent of their power boost, Bai Yan knew only by testing.
Experintation is the sole criterion for testing the truth, and Bai Yan's figure soon appeared in the second layer of the abyss.
This ti, he did not seek out the demon lords of the second layer; he rely ca for a trial. If he engaged them again, he would likely be entangled once more.
...
Bai Yan floated in the air, giving casual directions; the abyss could no longer trap this mighty dragon.
Under Bai Yan's guidance, one Nightmare Knight charged towards a Level 6 demon.
This was a Four-Ard Snake Demon, similar in evolutionary fashion to angels; with each level upgrade, they gained an additional pair of arms.
Bai Yan had once seen a Ten-Ard Snake Demon with strength at Level 9, truly formidable.
All mbers of the multi-ard snake demon species possess powerful strength, with their lower halves being snake tails. Each tail swing could cause mountain-shaking effects.
Yet in the presence of a Nightmare Knight enhanced by Bai Yan, this Four-Ard Snake Demon was powerless to resist even slightly.
Despite the Nightmare Knight's lower rank compared to the Four-Ard Snake Demon, when he started his charge, when boundless montum gathered on him, the spear shot out like a dragon!
The six-ter-long knight spear directly shattered the weapon in the Four-Ard Snake Demon's hands, sending him flying backwards.
The Nightmare Knight did not spare him due to the Four-Ard Snake Demon's vulnerability; he seized the reins, urging the nightmare under him to trample towards the Four-Ard Snake Demon.
Pitifully, this Four-Ard Snake Demon, just recently upgraded, was quickly turned into a pulp by the Nightmare Knight and returned for reconstruction.
If just one Nightmare Knight is so powerful, what if their numbers reached in the tens of thousands? Bai Yan imagined the scene of countless Nightmare Knights galloping across various planes, feeling an increasing urgency to enhance their strength soon.
After all, the Nightmare Knights are capable of coordinated attacks and defense when their numbers exceed one hundred.
If Bai Yan doesn't utilize such a presence effectively, what other thoughts would he have?
However, before that, Bai Yan must first enhance his own strength and then raise his territory's rank. Otherwise, the level of demons under his command cannot surpass his own level and territory rank.
"All troops, heed the command! Target demons above Level 6, attack!"
The ten thousand Nightmare Knights surrounding Bai Yan were all upgraded from their accumulated demon energy. The demons they killed and collected could naturally be devoured by Bai Yan.
Unlike Alec, that Demon Dragon, who fundantally contributed nothing, while being continuously botherso.
"Yes!"
At Bai Yan's command, the Nightmare Knights dispersed, and while there were Level 8 and even Level 9 demons on the second layer of the abyss, they generally practiced in desolate places.
Even if the Nightmare Knights encountered them, Bai Yan had enough ti to resolve them.
At this point, Bai Yan's strength made him unafraid of Level 9 demons.
The Level 9 demon that once nearly took his life was now nothing more than an ant in his eyes.
He had even slain the father god, so how could he fear these ordinary demons?
The Nightmare Knights, under Bai Yan's command, soon captured many Level 6 and 7 demons from the second layer of the abyss for Bai Yan.
Most of these demons possessed self-awareness but ultimately perished at Bai Yan's hands.
The thousand Nightmare Knights ventured through the second layer of the abyss, their sweeping actions quickly noticed by the demon lord here.
But before he could speak, Bai Yan vanished from his sight.
The demons on the second layer of the abyss no longer satisfied Bai Yan; his strength was too great. Even if the demons queued for Bai Yan to devour, it would still take a very long ti for Bai Yan to acquire enough evolution points.
Therefore, Bai Yan needed a place where more demons could be devoured, which was the third layer of the abyss.
Gathering all the Nightmare Knights, Bai Yan disappeared from the second layer's demon lord Soron's vision, quietly arriving at the third layer of the abyss.
Just after descending into the third layer of the abyss, Bai Yan deeply inhaled the dense evil aura perating each second here.
Compared to the first and second layers, the evil aura in the third layer of the abyss was more intense, and the demons capable of surviving here were all formidable beings.
The Small Inferior Demons from the first layer absolutely could not appear here.
Upon entering the third layer of the abyss, Bai Yan's first glance was at an Level 8 demon.
This was a Demon Hunting Spider Empress, whose enormous belly contained countless Level 6 demon hunting spiders.
The Demon Hunting Spider Empress was an extrely peculiar presence in the abyss; her own strength wasn't great, but she could use demon power to reproduce hunting spiders endlessly.
This ability may not seem strong, but when thousands, even billions, of hunting spiders swarm around you, even the demon lords may feel unsettled.
However, mass reproduction of hunting spiders greatly harms the Demon Hunting Spider Empress's body, so generally, she wouldn't engage in such mutually destructive behavior.
Yet, as Bai Yan led the Nightmare Knights before this Demon Hunting Spider Empress, she imdiately beca tense, her massive belly starting to wriggle at once.
Suddenly, she spawned hundreds of Level 6 demon hunting spiders.
These newly born hunting spiders lacked much intellect, but under the Demon Hunting Spider Empress's control, they all rushed swiftly towards Bai Yan and the Nightmare Knights, even engaging in suicide attacks.
Although the newly born hunting spiders possessed limited assault capability, their one fearso tactic was rciless self-detonation.
Every hunting spider's self-detonation equated to the full strike of a Level 7 demon, which is the true reason this species of hunting spider could continue propagating.
No one would deliberately provoke these hunting spiders as they could self-detonate at any disagreent, achieving little gain at great risk.
