My Three Beautiful Vampire Wives can hear my Inner Thoughts-Chapter 144: Rising Realm

The moment the crimson fruit reached its final state, the battlefield erupted into noise.

The Emperor powerhouses who had been charging through the forest of writhing tentacles suddenly grew even more violent.

Their hesitation vanished.

Their restraint vanished.

Only fury remained.

"Destroy the tree!"

"Kill him now!"

"Don’t let him eat that thing!"

The sky trembled as dozens of Emperor voices roared at once. Their power poured out without restraint, filling the Nightmare Realm with violent waves of mana that clashed against the pulsing aura of the Devouring Blood Tree.

The snake humanoid slammed his blade against a thick tentacle that tried to block his path. The blade flashed with venomous green light as it sliced deep into the flesh, spraying dark red liquid into the air.

"MOVE!" he screamed toward the others.

The old rabbit raised his bone staff high above his head as ancient runes burned across its surface.

"You fools!" the rabbit shouted with anger burning in his old voice. "Do you not see what he is doing? Break through! Break through before it is too late!"

A massive warrior with flaming horns roared as he smashed through several tentacles that blocked his way.

"Then stop talking and kill him!"

The battlefield grew louder and louder as the Emperors pushed forward with terrifying force.

Every step they took shook the ground.

Every attack exploded with power strong enough to destroy mountains.

Yet the Devouring Blood Tree did not retreat.

Its countless tentacles moved like an endless ocean of living flesh. They whipped across the battlefield, blocking paths, crushing warriors, and dragging unlucky followers beneath the soil.

Even so, the Emperors refused to stop.

Their eyes burned with desperate rage as they forced their way closer to the towering crimson tree.

Above them, Cain watched everything.

Then suddenly...

He smirked.

Slowly, he raised one hand.

The moment his fingers moved, the countless attacking tentacles around the battlefield changed their behavior.

Instead of striking forward again and again, the massive flesh tendrils began to coil around the trunk of the Devouring Blood Tree.

Some wrapped around branches.

Others crossed over each other like living walls.

More tentacles rose from the earth and formed thick layers around the base of the tree.

The entire structure became something like a gigantic fortress made of writhing flesh and blood-red bark.

The tentacles were no longer attacking wildly.

They were defending.

Blocking.

Guarding the tree.

For a moment, the Emperors froze in confusion.

Then their anger exploded even further.

"He’s hiding!"

"He thinks this barrier will save him?"

"Break it!"

The horned warrior slammed both fists into a wall of flesh tentacles, blasting them apart with a violent explosion of fire.

Another Emperor hurled a storm of lightning that cracked through several layers of defenses.

Yet every time a path opened, more tentacles moved into place.

They twisted together like a living shield.

The snake humanoid hissed loudly.

"He is buying time!"

"Then stop him!" another Emperor screamed.

Magic spells began raining across the battlefield.

Massive blades made of wind slammed against the walls of flesh.

Ice spears pierced through tentacles.

Firestorms roared upward toward the branches.

The noise became deafening.

And above all that chaos...

Cain laughed.

His laughter echoed across the battlefield like a mad king enjoying a festival of destruction.

"Hahahaha!"

He spread his arms wide while standing on the highest branch of the Devouring Blood Tree.

"Come on!"

His voice rolled down toward the furious army below.

"Is that all?"

A tentacle wall shattered under the strike of an Emperor blade, only to be replaced instantly by two more.

The horned warrior roared.

"Stop laughing!"

Another Emperor screamed.

"Coward!"

Cain only laughed harder.

"Hahahaha!"

His eyes shone with bright crimson light.

"You all came here to kill me," he said between laughter. "Yet now you scream like frightened animals."

The snake humanoid snarled upward.

"You will regret this arrogance!"

Cain tilted his head.

"Regret?"

He pointed lazily toward the sky.

"You should look up."

High above the battlefield, hidden among the thick branches of the Devouring Blood Tree...

The fruit pulsed again.

But this time the light that came from it was terrifying.

A deep crimson glow spread across the sky like blood soaking into black cloth.

The mana pouring from it was so dense that even the Emperor powerhouses felt pressure pressing against their chests.

The old rabbit felt his fur stand on end.

His voice trembled.

"It is... finished..."

The fruit had completely ripened.

The surface looked smooth and bright like living crystal made from fresh blood.

Veins ran across it like rivers of fire.

Every pulse sent waves of blood mana crashing through the Nightmare Realm.

Even the ground beneath the tree began to crack under the weight of that power.

Cain slowly walked toward the fruit.

His boots stepped lightly across the thick branch.

Below him, the battlefield continued to rage.

But he did not hurry.

He reached the fruit and stopped in front of it.

For a moment, he simply stared at it.

His reflection appeared faintly across its crimson surface.

Then he raised his hand.

His pale fingers wrapped around the glowing fruit.

The moment he touched it, the fruit trembled like something alive.

The mana inside surged violently.

Even the tentacles surrounding the tree began to pulse faster as if responding to their master.

Below, the old rabbit screamed.

"STOP HIM!"

The Emperors unleashed even more violent attacks.

"Break the barrier!"

"NOW!"

But Cain had already plucked the fruit from the branch.

The moment it left the tree, the crimson glow around it intensified.

The mana inside the fruit roared like a storm trapped inside a small sphere.

Cain held it in front of his eyes.

He smiled.

"So this is the result of all your hard work."

The snake humanoid stared upward with wide eyes.

"You cannot eat that!"

Cain looked down at him.

"Oh?"

Then, without hesitation...

He placed the fruit into his mouth.

The battlefield froze.

For a brief moment, nothing happened.

Cain chewed slowly.

His expression remained calm.

The Emperors stared in confusion.

The horned warrior shouted.

"Did it fail?"

The snake humanoid narrowed his eyes.

"Something is wrong..."

Then suddenly—

Cain’s body trembled.

Crimson veins exploded across his pale skin like rivers of fire.

They spread across his neck.

His arms.

His face.

His entire body.

The power inside the fruit awakened.

A terrifying wave of blood mana erupted outward from Cain like a violent storm.

The air cracked.

The ground shook. 𝗳𝚛𝚎𝚎𝘄𝕖𝕓𝕟𝕠𝚟𝚎𝕝.𝗰𝕠𝐦

His aura began to rise.

"His power...!" an Emperor gasped.

Cain’s blood infusion realm surged violently.

Middle Fifth Stage Blood Infusion Realm.

The energy around him began expanding rapidly.

The pressure forced nearby branches to crack.

Peak Fifth Stage.

The sky above trembled as crimson lightning flashed across the clouds.

Initial Sixth Stage.

The Emperors felt their hearts tighten.

The old rabbit’s hands trembled as he stared upward.

"This... this monster..."

Middle Sixth Stage.

The blood veins across Cain’s skin glowed brighter and brighter as if lava flowed beneath his flesh.

Peak Sixth Stage.

The Devouring Blood Tree pulsed wildly as if celebrating the growth of its master.

Then—

Seventh Stage.

A massive explosion of blood mana blasted outward from Cain’s body.

The force pushed back the attacking Emperors, forcing many of them to step backward.

Even the snake humanoid felt his scales tighten from the pressure.

Cain slowly lifted his head.

His eyes burned with deep crimson light.

His breathing grew slow and steady as the violent energy settled inside his body.

For a moment, silence filled the battlefield.

Then the Emperors reacted.

Shock spread across their faces.

Fear followed immediately after.

The old rabbit’s voice exploded across the battlefield.

"KILL HIM!"

His voice cracked with desperation.

"Give everything you have!"

His ears trembled as he shouted again.

"If you don’t... we are all going to die here!"

The Emperors understood immediately.

All hesitation vanished.

Every single one of them raised their power at once.

"ATTACK!"

The sky turned into a storm of magic.

Giant meteors made of fire crashed toward Cain.

Lightning dragons roared through the clouds.

Blades made of wind sliced across the sky.

Ice storms froze the air itself.

Thousands of spells descended at once.

The Nightmare Realm trembled under the combined power of dozens of Emperor-level attacks.

The storm of magic covered Cain completely.

Explosions roared endlessly as the attacks crashed down on his position.

The entire crown of the Devouring Blood Tree vanished beneath the endless rain of destruction.
