Chapter 577: The Change of Situation
That kind of conclusion is not far-fetched, because Aldrian himself is a living example of a reincarnated being who slowly regains the memories of his past lives. If the devil lord is actually a reincarnated being who still retains the memories of his past lives, then he has to admit that such an opponent indeed dangerous.
In terms of strength, they may not be so far apart, as the formation covering the continent limits the devil lord to, at most, the peak of the emperor stage—though he can still exude power beyond that. Aldrian, with the combination of all his domains, can also release power beyond the emperor stage, as seen in his battle with Cardinal Carsius.
However, the more dangerous aspect lies in the devil lord’s knowledge. With his extensive understanding, he holds far greater advantages over any of his opponents and can act precisely according to his plans. There is no opponent more dangerous than one who is not only powerful but also possesses a clever and knowledgeable mind.
That means the devil lord is not merely a brute-force type opponent. Moreover, that man might have already lived for thousands of years, giving him far more experience than Aldrian has in this lifetime.
Aldrian took a deep breath and tried to focus on the positive. At the very least, knowing this information meant he could be more prepared when he faced that man in the near future.
Aldrian nodded to the spirit.
"Alright, thank you for your warning. I will keep that in mind," he said.
"Anyway, where does that path lead? Does it go to a deeper part of the underground?" he added, his eyes fixed on the pathway behind the spirit.
The spirit, understanding exactly what Aldrian meant, answered without delay.
"This was also one of my intentions from the start, to bring you there, my lord. Yes, that path leads to a deeper part of the underground and stretches down to the base of my main body. There are many treasures in that place that may be useful to you. Many of them came from the higher heavens, brought by the divine phoenix, and many others are from my own discoveries."
She then stood up and turned toward the pathway.
