"No … impossible!"
"How could this be?!"
Staring at the giant, twisted face within the trunk of the Abyssal Fruit Tree, the dark red serpent was scared silly. It stood there in a daze, as though it had been petrified.
The distant silver-haired youth and the other two were stunned as well. The three of them seemed to have lost their souls. Their mouths were wide open, and they were speechless.
They didn't dare believe what they had just seen!
That was a Sovereign! Just like that, it had been attacked in a pincer attack by two other trees. Judging from its screams, it seemed to be suffering agonizing torment.
Although not long ago, Linley had seen Chu Bei kill Sovereign Barr, right now, his face was still filled with shock.
"Collect!"
As Chu Bei barked this single word, the Bodhi Tree and the Epiphany Tree simultaneously emitted an immortal light, and with a boom, they disappeared together with the Abyssal Fruit Tree.
[The host has subdued the Abyssal Fruit Tree. Mission complete.]
Hearing the system's voice, Chu Bei laughed calmly. Yet another ancient tree appeared in his sea of consciousness.
To be precise, this was just a sapling, completely different from the previous Abyssal Fruit Tree.
The dark red serpent finally came to its senses. It stared at Chu Bei with incomparable terror, then with a swoosh, it tore through the void and flew towards an ancient castle at the peak of the mountain.
"Milord, that Sovereign, she …"
The silver-haired youth and the other two flew back to Chu Bei's side, becoming incomparably cautious as they probingly asked about the Abyssal Fruit Tree.
"We are connected by destiny. These three fruits are for you." Chu Bei waved his hand, and the three Abyssal Fruits flew towards the silver-haired youth.
The three were stunned, but after they came to their senses, they hurriedly bowed towards Chu Bei, their voices extremely excited. "Thank … thank you, milord!"
But by the time they finished their thanks and raised their heads, Chu Bei and Linley had already disappeared.
…..
The Abyssal Mountain. The peak of the mountain.
Within a gloomy castle, ripples appeared in the air, and two figures slowly descended.
"Master, this place is so sinister."
As soon as Linley landed within the castle, he couldn't help but shiver, and a strange chill filled his heart.
Looking around, the castle was made of purplish black materials, and the cold walls emitted a bone-chilling aura.
Chu Bei waved his sleeve, and a resplendent golden light instantly filled the ancient castle, and the gloomy chill disappeared. Linley felt a warm current spread through his entire body, making him feel extremely comfortable.
"Who is it?!"
Suddenly, a cold and clear voice resounded through the castle.
Linley and Bebe immediately looked towards the source of the sound, only to see that at the end of the violet carpet, there was an exquisite throne. It was a pure black throne.
A woman in a purple robe sat on the throne. The purple robe was embroidered with tree branches, vines, and silver snakes. She had blood-red hair and an exquisite face. Her eyes, in particular, seemed to carry a bolt of lightning that could shake one's soul.
"The Sovereign of Death is a woman!"
Staring at the red-haired beauty on the throne, Linley couldn't help but cry out in surprise.
"How dare you! How dare you not kneel in front of the Lord Ruler! "
Suddenly, a low shout rang out. So there were three figures standing on either side of the red-haired beauty.
One of them, a white-haired man, heard Linley's words, and his face immediately sank. He waved his hand and struck out with a palm strike.
His palm emanated a terrifying ripple of aura. Forget about Linley; even a powerful Highgod who faced this palm would be scared witless.
This was because the six figures by the red-haired woman's side were all Netherworld Sovereigns!
BOOM!
Linley felt as though all the blood in his body had come to a halt, but just as the palm strike was about to land on his body, an enormous, rippling palm suddenly appeared in front of him.
With a muffled sound, the enormous rippling palm destroyed the white-haired man's palm strike as easily as crushing dry wood.
The enormous rippling palm continued forward, instantly arriving in front of the white-haired man.
The white-haired man frowned, not hesitating at all as he clenched his fist to meet it.
Rumble! Rumble!
Rumble! The castle trembled, and a strange light swirled around the walls. The white-haired man was knocked flying backwards, smashing viciously against the walls. If it hadn't been for the swirling light, the entire castle probably would've been transformed into dust by that palm strike.
"This …"
In that instant, aside from the red-haired woman, the other Sovereigns all revealed looks of astonishment. All of them stared in disbelief at Chu Bei.
"Who are you, exactly?!"
The white-haired man flew back to the red-haired woman's side. His terrifying aura was rather chaotic, and he once more stared at Chu Bei with a hint of dread in his eyes.
At their level, they were able to determine the level of their opponent's cultivation as soon as they attacked.
Although he wasn't able to determine this person's exact level of cultivation, he was certain that this person was definitely a Sovereign, and a Sovereign who was far more powerful than him!
"I am the owner of the All-Heavens Shop."
Chu Bei stood there with his hands behind his back, staring with incomparable calmness at the red-haired woman and the Sovereign by her side.
"What?!"
"You are the owner of the All-Heavens Shop who killed Barr in the Infernal Realm!"
"Why aren't you heading to the Celestial Realm's Judgment Dais? Why have you appeared here?!"
…..
Upon hearing Chu Bei's words, the Sovereigns of the Underworld were all stunned. One after another, their voices filled with surprise.
In particular, the white-haired man who had attacked earlier looked increasingly unsightly. If he had known the other party's identity from the beginning, he wouldn't have attacked at all.
After all, although lesser Sovereigns and intermediate Sovereigns were all Sovereigns, the difference in strength between them was like heaven and earth. It was an insurmountable chasm.
"How interesting. I didn't expect to meet you so early, little fellow."
On the throne, the red-haired woman who looked no more than sixteen or seventeen years old looked at Chu Bei with interest. "What business do you have with me?"
"I need you to revive someone," Chu Bei said calmly as he looked directly at the Death Dominus.
"That doesn't seem like the attitude of someone who is asking for a favor." The Death Dominus looked at Chu Bei with an amused expression.
"No, you can take it that I'm ordering you. If you don't want to, then I'll take the Underworld Heart and do it myself. "Chu Bei was unusually calm, a smile on his lips the entire time.
"How arrogant! Do you know who you're talking to? " Upon hearing Chu Bei's words, the Death Dominus, who was still smiling, suddenly turned cold, and her brows furrowed.
It was also at this moment that the temperature in the ancient castle plummeted again, and a chill filled the air.
The six Sovereigns beside the Death Dominus trembled all of a sudden. They were so frightened that they fell silent.
"You only have one minute to consider."
Facing the Death Dominus' icy gaze, Chu Bei didn't show any fear at all. His expression was still calm and collected.
"Good, good, very good! No one has ever dared to speak to me like that! "
The Death Dominus got up from the throne and suddenly burst into laughter. Her laughter became increasingly cold and harsh.
After exchanging glances, the Sovereigns of the Underworld distanced themselves from the Death Dominus in unison. They were well aware of her temper. Although she was laughing, there was a strong murderous intent behind her laughter.
More importantly, the Death Dominus wouldn't consider so much once she got angry. They might be implicated as well.
"Lord Dominus, s-this is bad! The Life Overgod s-she's been killed! "At this moment, a panicked voice broke the tense atmosphere in the ancient castle.
The next moment, a red light swept into the ancient castle. It was a dark red snake. As it descended from the sky, it transformed into a red-clothed man and knelt before the Death Dominus.
"What did you say?! Cai Fu has been killed! "
Upon hearing the red-clothed man's words, the Death Dominus's expression turned extremely gloomy.
The next moment, a dark mist spread out from her body and instantly filled the entire ancient castle.
Rumble!
Accompanied by a loud noise, under the Death Dominus's murderous intent, the originally majestic ancient castle exploded, and rubble flew everywhere.
The Sovereigns of the Underworld soared into the sky and immediately hovered above Mount Hades. They all looked down at the ruins and sighed faintly.
At this moment, they didn't dare to make a sound. After all, the Death Dominus had already gone berserk.
As for Chu Bei, as soon as the Death Dominus had developed a murderous intent towards him, he had used Xiao Hei's power.
Those flying rocks were knocked away by the Chaotic Force before they could even reach a meter away from Linley and him.
"Who killed her?!"
The Death Dominus's divine sense instantly covered the entire Abyssal Mountain. After confirming that she was no longer able to sense the aura of the Life Overgod, her furious roar shook the skies.
If a Netherworld Sovereign had been killed, she wouldn't have lost her composure like this. But the one who had been killed was the Life Overgod who represented the Life Dominus.
Faced with the Death Dominus's questioning, the red-clothed man formed from the giant dark red snake immediately fell to his knees. Lowering his head, he said in terror, "It was a young man who looked to be in his twenties. He didn't have any ripples of divine power, but he was extremely powerful. In front of him, the Life Overgod wasn't able to fight back at all. "
Hearing the red-clothed man's words, the Death Dominus's gaze once more turned towards Chu Bei. Her murderous intent had already solidified, slicing through space itself. One crack after another spread out like a spiderweb.
"You were the one who killed Cai Fu!"
The Death Dominus clenched her fists. The space around her shattered, and an enormous, pitch-black hole appeared. Just looking at it would cause one's heart to tremble.
Hearing this, Hong Yi raised her head and turned around, trembling. When she saw Chu Bei, whose lips were curled into a smile, she immediately jumped to her feet. "Lord Ruler, it's him! It's him! He's the one who killed the Sovereign God of Life!"
"What a noisy fellow."
Chu Bei glanced calmly at the red-clothed man, then casually flicked out with his finger. With a bang, the red-clothed man shot straight into the pitch-black hole behind the Death Dominus.
"Is the Cai Fu you speak of referring to the Abyssal Tree?"
After casually sending the red-clothed man flying, Chu Bei looked calmly at the Death Dominus. "Don't worry. She's fine. Only, in the future, she'll be following me. "
"Where is she?!"
The Death Dominus roared, and a roiling black fog spread out from behind her, forming into a longspear that pierced through the air towards Chu Bei.
Wherever the longspear passed, the black fog would swirl and surge in all directions like a roiling river.
The black-clothed man and the other five Lords of the Underworld did not hesitate at all. They immediately hid in the void, avoiding the swirling black fog.
Clearly, the black fog contained terrifying energy. Even the black-clothed man and the other Lords had to be careful when dealing with it.
Bang!
However, the longspear formed from the essence of the black fog was shattered by Chu Bei's clenched fist when it was less than half a meter away from him.
With a deafening boom, the massive Nether Mountain was split into two halves by the terrifying shockwaves. It was as if an Emperor weapon had sliced through the air.
Looking at where Chu Bei was and the mountain behind him, there was no damage at all. It was as if they were not affected by the black fog longspear at all.
"Hei Ke, why do I feel like he's much stronger than you?! If it were you, would you be able to withstand a Chief Sovereign's attack so calmly? Is he really just a middle-rank Lord? "After glancing at Chu Bei, the black-clothed man tilted his head to look at the black-clothed man beside him.
"His abilities are above mine. I'm afraid he's already at upper-rank lord-level." The black-clothed man frowned. His expression was extremely serious.
"What? An upper-rank Lord! "
"Doesn't that mean he's also a Chief Sovereign?!"
"There are only eleven Chief Sovereigns. How can he possibly have the abilities of a Chief Sovereign?!"
…
The black-clothed man's words immediately caught the attention of the other five Lords. All of them wore peculiar expressions.
"I've said before that you only have one minute to think about it. Now, time's up. "
Suddenly, a voice without the slightest hint of emotion came from Chu Bei's mouth. "Since you're unwilling to help me of your own accord, I can only take your Underworld Heart and do it myself."
As soon as he finished speaking, Chu Bei rose into the air and faced the Death Dominus.
Subsequently, a terrifying wave of energy that was not at all inferior to the Death Dominus's swept out from Chu Bei. The terrifying aura shattered the dark clouds in the sky, and the Abyssal Mountain below collapsed with a loud crash.
In the vast mountain forest, tens of thousands of ferocious beasts and birds fled in panic. Tragic cries rang out continuously.
