Chapter 2447: Weird Energy

"So, what does this Owen want from you in exchange for freedom?" Selena asked the two a moment later.

"He asked for some of our blood," said Helena. "Despite his outrageous request, we are willing to overlook it if it means regaining our freedom."

"Did you already give him your blood?" Selena raised her eyebrows.

"Of course not. We’re not foolish enough to give him our blood before we are certain that—," Angela said.

"Actually..." Helena suddenly interrupted, "I was with Owen just before coming here, and I gave him some of my blood."

"You what?!" Angela looked at her with wide eyes.

"I know what you’re thinking, but I didn’t give it to him for nothing," Helena said as she raised an arm and continued, "I don’t know what he did, but I was able to partially leave Death Paradise."

"Is that true?!" Angela exclaimed, her voice full of excitement.

Helena nodded, "I was able to extend my arm outside of Death Paradise for a full minute."

"That’s... great!" Angela said.

Due to the Demon God’s punishment, none of them were able to stick even a single hair outside of Death Paradise, so an entire arm was definitely a significant improvement.

Yuan raised an eyebrow at their words and asked, "What did Owen do to help you, exactly?"

"He gave me some weird energy," she said.

"Weird energy?" Yuan raised an eyebrow.

"Can I examine this energy?"

"What?" Helena frowned with a look of disgust on her face.

"Are you crazy? There’s no way I’d let you examine my body. Even if I did, that energy is long gone."

"Hmm..." Yuan narrowed his eyes.

He suddenly raised an arm with his palm pointing to the sky, unleashing some Eternal Essence.

"Is this the energy you gained from him?"

"T-That’s—!"

Not just Helena, but Selena and Angela expressed surprise, clearly recognizing Eternal Essence.

"Why can you wield that power?!"

The three of them suddenly moved away from Yuan and entered into battle stances, their expressions etched with vigilance and fear.

Although it had been countless years since they fought with the Demon God, they’d never forgotten the power he used to completely defeat them, even killing several of their comrades.

"Answer me! Why can you wield that power, Demon God’s dog!" Helena roared, her aura oozing with immense killing intent.

Yuan withdrew his Eternal Essence and spoke, "Do you think this power is exclusive to the Demon God or something? Sorry to tell you, but he’s not the only one who can wield it. In fact, there are dozens of beings out there with this power."

"What the hell are you trying to say?" Angela frowned.

"Are you stupid? I already told you. The Demon God isn’t the only existence in this universe that can wield this power, as it is not exclusive to him."

"Then what is that power? And who else could wield it?" Selena asked.

"This power is called Eternal Essence, and it can only be wielded by existences known as ’Eternals’. They are god-like beings that live in the boundless void beyond the sky of this world. Of course, the one you know as Demon God is simply one of many Eternals out there."

"There are... many more Demon Gods out there?" Selena shivered just at the thought, looking utterly bewildered and in disbelief.

"Yes, there are many Eternals out there. However, they’re not all like the Demon God."

"That doesn’t make me feel any better..." Selena shook her head.

"Why are you worried about them? It’s not like they’re all out to get you."

Yuan then said, "Anyway, is this the energy that Owen gave you?"

Angela and Selena turned to look at Helena, who nodded her head after snapping out of her daze.

"Yes... and he claims it’s proof that he has direct access to the Demon God, and can even persuade the Demon God to free us..." Helena revealed.

Yuan fell silent, wondering how Owen, a mere demon, could wield Eternal Essence.

"How did Owen infuse Eternal Essence into your body?" Yuan then asked. "Did he directly give it to you?"

Helena shook her head.

"No. It was transferred to me through some needle," she replied.

"So it was given to you indirectly..."

’However, this means another Eternal could be involved in this situation. Why the hell is another Eternal interfering with the Demonic Realm? I would understand if this was the Nine Heavens and they were trying to use Owen to acquire the Absolute Power, but there’s no such thing in the Demonic Realm!’ Yuan wondered inwardly, as he couldn’t comprehend why another Eternal would work with Owen to free the Transcendents.
