My Descendants Are My Power

Chapter 146: Chapter 146: My child... has turned into a demon!

As Ethan kept busy, the game world's visuals showed the Blackwood folks quickly gathering under Forebearer and Olivia's plan. They had to seize the moment, or else experts from major powers would besiege them, and they might also lose the chance to avenge the Boar Monarch Pete themselves!

[Valley of Healers]

It must be said that the Valley of Healers was no ordinary place, protected by the mid-grade psychic device "White Lotus of Heaven's Pond" and the seventh-grade magical formation "Hundred Flowers Formation."

Although Lucas was a sword body, he was only at the early stage of Developing Skill, with formidable physical strength and extraordinary sword intent, he couldn't break through the defenses of the Valley of Healers just yet.

The third generation of Blackwoods could withstand attacks, but only with the power of the Transcendent Seed stage, and even struggled to activate top-grade psychic devices.

On their own, without a month-long siege or waiting for the Valley of Healers' Energy Stone to deplete, it was impossible for them to break in.

Carolyn even showed a smile, just waiting for the major powers to come and capture all the Blackwood people in one fell swoop.

But such luck lasted no more than half an hour.

In the distance, a bald, muscular man with iron arms descended from the sky, dropping dozens of AI Bionic Robots, among which the mecha spewing tail flames as it rose was particularly terrifying!

"Ha ha ha, great! Big brother, and my seven little bunnies, take a break, I've been stuck in that Hernandez family for half a day, and it was suffocating!"

As soon as Julian arrived, he wielded a human-sized iron hammer and smashed fiercely.

Then there was a giant sky-reaching tree, on which stood a woman covered in vines, her gentle voice audible, "Big brother, third brother, killing is fine, just don't destroy the psychic medicines in the Valley of Healers, I have great use for them."

Following that, countless exotic beasts arrived!

George came with twenty-three residual souls.

Assassins from Dawn came from all directions, along with the descendants of Blackwood's fourth generation!

Even William rushed over, this guy had killed someone in the Azure Cloud Pavilion, and when Olivia left, he was chased, holding up the head of a once-in-a-millennium genius from the Azure Cloud Pavilion, knocking on the Pavilion's magical formation, asking his idol, Great Aunt, to take her away.

Carolyn looked up blankly.

The shadow of Blackwood completely enveloped the entire Valley of Healers.

She thought standing with Sky Sect and Azure Cloud Pavilion put her next to the victors. She thought her contributions to the real powerhouses would bring rich rewards. She thought standing on the side of justice in Cloudview County would bring her ultimate victory and both fame and fortune.

Unfortunately, her luck was not on her side.

When the Blackwood people overwhelmed the magical formation of the Valley of Healers, she saw the ferocious faces of the Blackwood people.

She still thought she was righteous and roared,

"Don't be afraid! Evil cannot overcome good, Valley of Healers stands, get ready, let's fight them!"

Ten minutes later.

No corpses were seen inside the Valley of Healers, only Blackwood people, and those nailed to the wall in a spread-eagled position by Blackwood's psychic devices, unable to move. Carolyn's eyes no longer saw any brilliance, as if she had lost her soul.

She saw it.

A blood-red crowned blood tree appeared in the Valley of Healers, its roots piercing through each psychic ability in the Valley. She saw countless zombies and numerous mad exotic beasts, these beasts and demons tearing at the people of the Valley of Healers, the zombies slowly dragging the dried corpses into a silver coffin.

From the silver coffin emerged a demon shrouded in dark aura, yet devoid of any intellect. This demon and the demonic tree of Blackwood nearly came to blows over a dispute for blood, and Carolyn observed the demon growing stronger, advancing from Foundational Energy to the Transcendent Seed stage.

"Demons, all of them!" Carolyn murmured to herself.

She saw these heartless fiends gathered together, showing no remorse for their previous slaughter, putting on a pretense right before her eyes.

The first four generations of Blackwood gathered together, building an altar and kneeling before cards marked with a 'B', chanting, "Bless us, Forebearer."

The murky eyes of the seven demons of the Iron Gate flickered with a moment of clarity as they knelt before the first two generations of Blackwood.

"My child... has turned into a demon!"

"If we ever lose our minds one day, Grandpa must throw us into the coffin and let Dad and Mom beat us until we come to our senses."

"Don't worry, Mom, as long as we have blood to drink, we'll be fine. I believe we can keep our sanity."

"Yes, we have memories. For some reason, just looking back on our days in Gratitude Village helps suppress the demonic thoughts."

The seven demons revealed naive smiles.

Carolyn couldn't understand; these demons deserved to be exterminated for their lack of humanity!

But little did she know, it was those she previously thought had humanity who were committing the most inhumane acts, forcing the third generation of Blackwood to choose to lose their humanity, now struggling to maintain what humanity they should have.

"Dad, Uncle, Uncle!" The children of the fourth generation of Blackwood knelt before the third generation, tears streaming down their faces even though they had long known about their descent into demonhood. They deeply understood that their forebears, like them, had endured unspeakable trials.

The Primordial Blood Tree's signs were never just a trial.

Whenever they had free time, they would reminisce about Forest Town and Gratitude Village. There, they had fields of special abilities, good-hearted villagers, and family gatherings.

In that place, they could freely enter any villager's home for a meal, spar with peers using wooden swords, every day filled with laughter and joy.

Sometimes, they even took pride in being from Blackwood, which had led the entire Gratitude Village to its current prosperity. At least in Gratitude Village, they were born into endless glory.

But now, having left the village and Forest Town, they no longer saw those familiar faces, and were often separated from their families.

They had to fight fierce beasts and contend with nature, only then realizing how much deception existed in the world. Who wouldn't want to live naively? Shedding naivety and immaturity, slowly becoming mature and strong, was never easy.

Growing up was so painful; they felt like naked mortals running through a thorny forest, far more painful than falling off their grandfather's back.
