1366 The Dust Has Settled (2/2)
”If the Netherworld does not become a great world, it will eventually be sensed by other great worlds… At that time, it would also be a disaster.”
…
The surroundings of the Black Temple had been completely reduced to ruins. This place was originally a plain, but the battle of Nine-revolution Great Saints changed the terrain and turned it into a vast canyon. This was the power of Nine-revolution Great Saints.
In the void, a huge golden skeleton looked at the people in front of the Black Temple with blood-colored ghostly fire beating in its eyes. There was an inaudible sound coming from its mouth as if it were saying something. Then, it turned around, tore the void, and left.
Many people gathered in front of the Black Temple, including Nether King Er Ha, Yellow Spring Great Sage, Ice Saint, Prison Overlord Ying Long, and the Blood Illuminating Dragon with its drooping head. Nethery was sitting on the Netherworld Ship with Foxy in her arms, while Bu Fang was leaning against the side of the ship with his hands clasped behind him.
Lord Dog was lying in front of the Black Temple, while Tian Cang stood at the side. The wound in his chest was slowly closing up. This was the amazing ability of the Heaven Nether Puppet. Unless he was completely wiped out, he would slowly recover.
In the battle to guard Lord Dog's breakthrough, Earth Prison won a major victory, and Nether Prison was defeated. Not only did the latter lose Sword Demon Patriarch, but they also lost Nether Puppeteer Patriarch's three strongest puppets.
Of course, Earth Prison had also paid a great price. Ice Saint was seriously injured again, and she now looked very weak. Er Ha's aura was faltering. Excessive use of his potential had brought him some serious side effects. At the moment, he had a spicy strip dangling between his lips, and he seemed fine.
As for Bu Fang, he had lost another divine power liquid drop. It was a significant loss.
However, to everyone's surprise, the biggest beneficiary of this battle was not Earth Prison, Nether Prison, Lord Dog, nor Di Ting, but Whitey, whom no one had paid much attention to!
Yes, it was Whitey, who had become a chicken thief, for he had robbed Nether Puppeteer Patriarch of the God's Heart.
Everyone was a little curious that the God's Heart could drive Di Ting crazy.
”The God's Heart is an energy source stone. It's from a more powerful great world, so it cannot be found here in the Netherworld. There's information about it in the records, but I don't know much about it,” said Lord Dog, yawning.
In fact, he had suffered losses in this battle, but not much. He had intended to break through to that supreme realm at one go. With the array that could manipulate time, he might be able to break through the realm of God. Of course, there was a good chance that he would fail and end up a Demigod.
Although a Demigod and a God were only one word, there was a huge gap between them.
”After all, the Netherworld is only a small world, and it's not easy to become a God here…” Lord Dog said with emotion.
Ice Saint glanced at Lord Dog, then at Tian Cang. ”The God's Heart is actually a product of the previous age,” she said. ”It is what a supreme existence found after killing an intruder from a great world. The great world is very strong in the starry sky.”
As the Lord of the Forbidden Land, Ice Saint knew many secrets. Her words surprised everyone even more, and the way they looked at Whitey changed. One could see that their gazes were now filled with envy and curiosity.
”No wonder Di Ting has gone mad… The energy source stone from a great world is enough to drive him crazy…” said Lord Dog, sticking out his tongue.
The others nodded in agreement.
Bu Fang's eyes flashed. He learned a lot from what Ice Saint said. However, he did not care too much. After all, he was only a chef, and there were things he didn't need to know too much.
The crowd left. Lord Dog chose to stay in the Black Temple since he needed to stabilize his cultivation base. He knew Di Ting would do the same, or else he could easily fall back to the Great Saint Realm.
They did not disturb him, leaving him alone in the Black Temple. Since he only wanted to stabilize his cultivation base, he no longer needed Bu Fang and others to guard him. No one in all the Netherworld would be foolish enough to offend him now.
…
After the crowd left the Black Temple, they all returned to Yellow Spring City.
Ice Saint went back to her God Vanishing Mountain. She belonged to the forbidden land, and she could not leave it for too long.
The bustling city surprised Tian Cang, who had finally come back to life.
No one was happier than Ying Long when Tian Cang was resurrected. After all, he was once Tian Cang's right-hand man. The old man spent all day beside the Nether King and was as happy as a child.
The door of Yellow Spring Little Restaurant was closed. When Bu Fang and the others came to the restaurant, many vendors around it were surprised. Was the restaurant going to reopen? Immediately, people rushed to line up in front of the restaurant.
After opening the door, Bu Fang was the first to enter. Nethery followed him with Foxy in her arms. Tian Cang, Er Ha, Yellow Spring Great Sage, Ying Long, and the other Prison Overlords followed.
When Bu Fang sat in a chair to rest, Ying Long led the other Prison Overlords and knelt in front of Tian Cang. Their faces were very solemn.
Bu Fang and Nethery looked on curiously.
”Tian Cang, my lord, please take back the post of Nether King and lead Earth Prison to greatness again!” Ying Long said seriously.
Er Ha also lowered his head and looked at Tian Cang sincerely.
