The Fiend Castle was an organization similar to the mercenary guilds of the Infernal Realm. The power levels of the Infernal Realm were generally determined by the 'star' level of the Fiend Castle.
Even the weakest One Star Fiend had to be a fairly powerful God. As for the higher level Seven Star Fiends, they were the true experts of the Infernal Realm.
After leaving the hotel, Cheng Hao led Blumer towards the Fiend Castle in Royalwing City.
"Big brother, are you going to take the Fiend test?" Staring at the nearby violet-black ancient castle, Blumer asked in a soft voice.
Ever since he had fused with a Highgod spark and become a glorious Highgod, he had finally understood how great the difference between him and his big brother was. They were both Highgods, but if his big brother wanted to kill him, it would be as easy as lifting a finger.
"The Fiends of the Infernal Realm are synonymous with experts. The Fiend badge isn't very useful to me, but to you, it is a life-saving item!"
Standing next to the Fiend Castle, Cheng Hao continued to explain, "You are no longer a child. You can't always stay by my side. Sooner or later, you will have to get married, have children, and have a family. Having a Fiend status will save you from quite a bit of trouble!"
"Right, I'll do as you say, big brother!" Blumer hurriedly nodded, not daring to disobey in the slightest. In this world where power reigned supreme, even if the other party was his own big brother, he didn't dare to go against his will.
"Let's go. First, I'll help you get a Fiend badge. Afterwards, the two of us will probably have to go through the entire Infernal Realm!"
During the half month of closed door training, Cheng Hao had pondered for a long time. To complete a quadruple soul mutation was countless times more difficult than Linley's. At the very least, given the strength of his soul, even the Chief Sovereign of Destruction of the Infernal Realm might not be able to cause enough damage to his soul to mutate.
Relying on external injuries wasn't a good idea. Cheng Hao finally turned his attention to the Overgods.
In the Coiling Dragon universe, every few hundred billion years, one of the four Overgods would issue a mission, and those who completed the mission would be given a chance to make a wish to the Overgod.
The Overgods of this universe didn't have any self-awareness. They were the embodiment of the Laws of the Universe, and they were at least at the fifth rank. If the Overgod personally acted, Cheng Hao guessed that there was still a chance for him to complete his soul mutation.
"Based on the storyline, by now, the Overgod of Life should have issued a mission. Only, the outside world hasn't learned of this yet. The only person who knows of the mission, the Lord Prefect of the Skymount Prefecture of the Bloodridge Continent, should have already destroyed the treasured mirror containing the Overgod's mission … after I finish the Fiend trials with Blumer, I should head to the Bloodridge Continent!"
The Overgod mission had a total of three quest items. The first item was a tattered, tattered crown. Based on how the storyline had progressed, this item should still be floating about in the endless streams of chaotic space. Only after the Planar Wars had begun would it, by some stroke of luck, fly out from a spatial rift and be acquired by Linley.
The second item was a red caltrop diamond, which possessed an extremely strange power. Normally speaking, it would only appear thousands of years later. It was hard to say where it was now.
As for the third item, it was the nine soul pearls. The treasured mirror containing the treasured mirror of the Overgod mission had been acquired by the Lord Prefect of the Skymount Prefecture of the Bloodridge Continent. Of the three major quest items, this was the only one whose location could be determined.
"I remember that in the original storyline, Olivier's wife was stolen away by the son of the Lord Prefect of the Skymount Prefecture. Although because of me, Olivier's fate has changed, and this sort of thing won't happen again, since I've taken over this body, then I should help him settle this karmic debt!"
Cheng Hao had already made up his mind. He had to kill the Lord Prefect of the Skymount Prefecture. Once he died, then no one would ever know about the Overgod mission, and he, Cheng Hao, would be able to secretly gather the quest items and complete the Overgod mission!
After completing the Overgod mission, he would undergo a quadruple soul mutation, and then he would be blessed with great karmic luck. This was Cheng Hao's plan. Anyone who dared to stop him from obtaining karmic luck would be killed!
.....
Clearly, the number of people heading towards the Fiend Castle was far less than the number heading towards Redbud Castle.
However, although there were very few people heading towards the Fiend Castle, as they walked on the streets, they all had a certain confidence in themselves. Most of them had Fiend badges on their chests. They were the elites of the Infernal Realm, and they didn't need to pay any fees to go anywhere. They were Fiends who were revered and respected.
Cheng Hao and Bebe walked up the several dozen flights of stairs in front of the Fiend Castle, entering the main hall on the first floor.
The main hall on the first floor of the Fiend Castle was very spacious, and there were very few people in the main hall. A few Fiends were seated here and there, occasionally chatting amongst themselves.
At the front of the main hall was a counter for Fiends. A golden-haired, blue-eyed beauty was seated there rather lazily. Behind her was a shelf filled with bottles of fine wine. It seemed as though this beauty also had a part-time job selling wine.
"Hello, may I ask if you have come to participate in the Fiend trials?"
Upon seeing Cheng Hao and Bebe enter the main hall, the golden-haired beauty's gaze first swept over their chests. She didn't discover that they were wearing Fiend badges, and her attitude immediately became much friendlier.
This was the Fiend trials' application area. Every person who successfully applied and took the Fiend trials would receive some benefits. To her, these examinees were all rich people.
"Mm. Help us register. I'm in a hurry!" Cheng Hao knew the registration rules, and he immediately took out two azurites and handed them over.
Azurites were a higher level of currency than inkstones. The experts of the Infernal Realm all used azurites to make transactions. A small piece like this could be exchanged for tens of thousands of inkstones.
"Alright, please wait a moment!" Receiving the azurites, the golden-haired beauty handed over two devilish, cyclopean seals to Cheng Hao.
"This is the proof of your participation in the Fiend trials. Please take it." The golden-haired beauty glanced at Cheng Hao with some curiosity, then continued to laugh. "Alright. Including the two of you, the number of One Star Fiend trials is just right. Please take your proof of participation and gather at the city gates tomorrow morning."
.....
The next morning, Cheng Hao and Blumer arrived at the city gates early in the morning. Not long later, all the Fiend trial examinees had arrived. After a simple inspection of their badges, they entered a metallic lifeform.
"Everyone, the content of this trial is fairly difficult. When completing the mission, if you feel that it is too difficult, you can withdraw midway. Everything is for your own survival!"
