Just when Roy thought that there was nothing wrong with the bloodline refinement, a strange pain suddenly came.
The liquid in the pool was clearly hot, but Roy felt a strong chill. The utterly chilling pain penetrated deep into his limbs and bones! He felt all his muscles convulsing and chill drilling into his bones.
“An unknown conflict has occurred!” The system’s voice came. “Currently resolving. Please wait a moment... Please wait a moment...”
Roy did not know what happened, but judging from the chill in his body, something must have gone wrong when he was awakening his frost demon bloodline!
The system kept repeating ‘please wait a moment’, and Roy’s stored souls were continuously being consumed, showing that it was working, so Roy could only close his eyes and endure the chilling pain while clenching his teeth and persevering.
After some time, the chill within Roy’s body slowly abated but seemingly not. His perception seemed to be numb from the long chill.
Fortunately, a system prompt came at this moment. “Bloodline evolution has been controlled and completed. Due to unknown conflicts happening halfway, there was an additional consumption of 216 souls. Host, please check the interface.”
Upon hearing the voice, Roy sighed in relief and opened his eyes.
Nothing seemed to be out of the ordinary in the pool. The other demons that were awakening in the water stayed still, not affected at all, as though the intense chill from Roy’s body just now was merely an illusion.
What happened? Roy opened the system interface with some doubts and checked his status on the main page.

Looking at his two additional talent abilities in his attributes, Roy could not help but feel shocked!
He finally understood what had happened just now. The cells of his body had changed when his frost demon bloodline awakened, but because Roy had used the T-Virus and consumed the Dark-Dark Fruit before, these two things had changed his body’s cells as well. Therefore, when the frost demon bloodline transformed his body, these two changes had conflicts!
Roy only felt stunned. Roy had asked the system before, and the system had told him that complex body transformations could result in conflicts. Back then, Roy had warned himself to be cautious, but... To be honest, he just thought that he only needed to pay attention to the conflicts in attributes. For example, since his body was the dark attribute, he could not undergo any light attribute transformations.
Who would have thought that there would be conflicts between his bloodline’s ice attribute and the dark attribute?!
Moreover, the bloodline transformation had not been carried out through the system. Instead, Roy had done it according to the demon’s evolutionary method. But who would have thought that such a transformation would conflict with the transformation done through the system?
It was impossible to guard against!
Fortunately, Roy had let the system intervene to control the bloodline awakening process, and the system faithfully fulfilled its task. When conflicts occurred, the system immediately controlled and resolved them, leading to Roy being all right.
Of course, this was also because Roy had kept more than three hundred souls in reserve. Otherwise, the consequences would have been unthinkable...
Now, Roy’s power of frost, the Dark-Dark Fruit, and the T-Virus seemed to have integrated due to the system. Roy had two more talent abilities and finally got through that daunting experience without mishap.
Dark Cold? Magic Power Virus? What do these two talents do?
Roy opened his hands and looked at his body. Low-rank demons that had awakened their bloodlines were collectively known as middle-rank demons, and there would generally be some changes. Roy was no exception. However, he still looked the same. The only difference was his skin!
Originally, Roy’s skin was not much different from the other little demons’, and they were all dark red. However, the color of his skin had completely changed to a dim dark blue!
This color was indescribable... It was like the shadow in a piece of ice.
Roy had not seen other frost demons, so he did not know if their skin color was like this. However, this skin color was undoubtedly related to the frost power in his body. Roy was already different from other demons by his skin color alone.
What Roy did not know was that in the Abyss, frost demons were one of the rare elemental demons. The environment of the Abyss was always full of lava and flames, so the ice element was very thin, and it was more strenuous to display this magic power. Therefore, there were very few frost demons. But what was worth mentioning was that the power of frost demons had a restraining effect against most demons, especially flame demons! Frost demons could be said to be the natural enemy of flame demons!
The usual skin color of frost demons was pure blue, with a sense of transparency, which was the color of the ice crystals. But Roy’s frost power seemed to have changed a little, causing his skin color to be different from that of other frost demons.
Not only had his skin color changed, but even Roy’s demon aura had changed. If you were to look closely at his current aura, it would be sulfur and flames with darkness and coldness. The first two were the original aura of the Abyss, and the latter two were Roy’s own aura. It was conflicting, but it made people shiver unconsciously.
He did not expect such a massive change to happen when he advanced to middle-rank demon. If his previous modifications to himself were like a human changing their hairstyles, then he had gone for plastic surgery this time! This change made it difficult for even Roy to adapt.
The dark red skin looked rather good after a long time, but now it seemed poisoned...
Roy stood up from the water, stood beside the pool, and tried to let his magic energy flow into the circuit. The magic power circuit of the frost demon bloodline was different from the skills he created through the system. Those skills did not have magic power circuits, so Roy was using his own magic now.
With a large amount of magic energy flowing, the surrounding temperature suddenly plummeted! The demons that were still in the midst of awakening started shivering!
Afterward, under Roy’s control, a visible cold current appeared in the air.
It was a black, icy cold aura that looked quite strange. With the appearance of the cold aura, black snowflakes began condensing above the pool!
These black snowflakes, which were originally steam from the pool, condensed immediately and slowly floated down due to Roy’s cold aura. This scene was very strange. In the areas Roy’s power affected, there was actually a black heavy snowfall!
Some of the demons in the pool looked at the falling black snow in astonishment. They unconsciously stretched out their hands to catch the snow, and when the snow fell onto their hands, they felt their palms sink slightly!
Does this snow actually have unimaginable weight?! But it’s clearly floating down so slowly!
Before the demons understood what was going on, the snow fell on them without stopping. The black snow not only did not melt from the heat but instead attached to the demons.
One or two snowflakes were not serious, but the demons began to feel their bodies becoming heavy as the accumulating snow weighing down on them gradually increased. After only a few moments, the demons in the pool felt as though they were carrying a stone weighing tens of kilograms.
The demons wanted to escape from the range of the snowfall, but they suddenly remembered that they were in the midst of awakening. Once they moved before finishing, they would lose the supply of energy from the pool water and fail to awaken!
So in their anger, they could only growl at Roy, the culprit!
Roy had yet to understand what was going on at this time. The black snow also fell on him, but it had no effect on him at all, so he was very curious about what was happening to these demons.
Black snow was undoubtedly the result of the Dark Cold talent. Roy’s magic power output was still low, and the temperature of the cold aura was low. He could only make frost and not ice, so the effect of Dark Cold was not very obvious...
The demons roared at Roy, wanting him to put away his magic power and leave quickly. But before they finished roaring, they noticed another thing that terrified them!
After being stained with this black snow, they felt that they were losing the magic power within their bodies at a faster rate!
This loss was not due to the construction of the magic power circuit during bloodline awakening, but it had vanished into thin air, as though something invisible was swallowing it...
“W-what’s going on?! Where did my magic power go?!”
They screamed in horror, but upon hearing this, Roy’s thoughts moved.
Is this loss of magic power caused by the Magic Power Virus talent?
