"That's good. These people have actually had their consciousness eroded by demons; they just aren't aware of it. They think they've gained immortality and power, but whether their consciousness can persist depends on the whims of the higher demons."
"If the demon at the top wants it, all these people will lose their self-awareness and become demon servants, obeying that demon," Lu Yu said.
He wasn't speaking nonsense. The situation of these people was like that of the Liang family's patriarch, whom Lu Yu controlled with the heart of a demon general.
On the surface, they appear to still have self-awareness, but they have long since turned into demons, controlled by more advanced demons.
When facing true demon soldiers and demon generals, these people are unable to resist, merely following orders and being manipulated.
It may seem that consuming a demon's heart to gain great strength and immortality is a way to become stronger, but it's actually a trap—a trap set by the demons.
