This time, Brook didn't object. However, he suggested that finding the connection point was more important. If Babatos could really help them find the connection point, he would be very grateful.
Planto City was the main city of the Kingdom of Planto. It had a population of 15 million and was the largest city in the Kingdom.
Three days later, the group arrived at the city. Babatos was the leader. Brook and Gu Zheng disguised themselves as servants so that no one would discover their true identities.
The largest family in Planto City was the Planto Family. This was a large family that had five Jin Xian cultivators and more than three hundred normal cultivators.
"Belle, my brother!"
In front of a manor, Babatos opened his arms and hugged a young man. The young man was in the late stage of the Soul Formation Realm and was one of the seventy-two Demon Gods.
Belle was ranked twenty-eighth among the seventy-two Demon Gods. He was a rare handsome guy among the Demon Gods.
"Babatos, I didn't expect you to come. Please come in!"
Belle laughed loudly and invited Babatos and the others into his manor. Brook kept his head down, so he didn't discover Brook's existence.
Belle belonged to the Planto Family, but he wasn't a direct descendant of the Planto Family. He joined the family later and had no family bloodline. He was an invited guest of the family.
With this identity, he was destined to not receive the cultivation resources of the direct descendants of the family. However, it wasn't bad. At least he could get some cultivation resources. It was much better than cultivating on his own.
"Belle, look who this is."
After entering the living room, Barbatos said to Belle with a smile as he pulled Brooke over.
Brook raised his head with a smile. He didn't try to hide himself. Surprise quickly appeared in Belle's eyes, which quickly turned into excitement.
"Brook, it's you. Brook, why are you here? When did you come here?"
Belle asked a few questions in a row. He was very excited. Among the seventy-two Demon Gods, Belle was one of the few who was straightforward. During the battle back then, he was always on the frontlines. He was very brave.
"I came here by accident!"
Brook sighed and told him how he and Gu Zheng came to Hell. Bei Lie was dumbfounded. He didn't expect Brook and Gu Zheng to come here by accident.
"Since you're here, why don't you stay here? With your current strength, no matter which clan you join, you'll be valued!"
Like Babatos, Belle also wanted Brook to stay. Brook shook his head again. His days in the Demon Realm were more comfortable. He didn't want to stay in this rural hell. He had to go back.
"Stay here for now. Tell me if you need anything. If I can do it, I will definitely help you!"
Knowing that Brook didn't want to stay, Belle didn't ask him to stay. Instead, he patted his chest and said that he would do his best to help. Brook knew that since he said so, he would definitely do it.
Brook told him what he wanted to investigate, and Belle quickly ordered his men to investigate. He wanted to get the information as soon as possible.
This was the King's City, and Belle was a Demon God. It was very easy for him to get some information. The next day, the information came back. After analysis, Brook quickly determined five places that might be the connection points.
Five, two more than the previous Wangzhou City.
Gu Zheng and Brook, who were eager to return home, immediately went to check the connection points after receiving the news. These days, Gu Zheng had been learning about magic arrays from Brook, so he was familiar with the connection points.
The so-called connection points were actually the weakest places in space. Only such places could be used to pass through and reach another world.
As for which world to reach, it depended on where the corresponding connection points were.
The connection points were places in a world that were close to the space layer. Because of this, the space here was unstable. For example, the Upper Realm and the 3,000 Lower Realms were lumps. Of course, the Nine Upper Realms were definitely much bigger than the 3,000 Lower Realms. Whether it was the Upper Realm or the Lower Realm, they were surrounded by a vacuum layer that could be connected through this vacuum layer.
This vacuum layer could be seen as a connection point. This was just a metaphor. It definitely wasn't like that. This was also Gu Zheng's current understanding.
Although Gu Zheng didn't know much about the concept of space now, after being with Brook for so many days, he had some understanding.
The space here was weak, but it didn't mean that it would be abnormal. Therefore, it had to be determined by many subtle features. For example, some plants would be slightly different in places where the space was weak. Normally, they would face north, but they might face south.
These differences were only possibilities, but it didn't mean that it was definitely a connection point. However, as long as it was a real connection point, these differences would definitely exist.
The ancient castle in England on Earth was a connection point. There were also some special features there, but they were all covered up by Brook and weren't discovered by others.
"This isn't it!"
After checking everything in the first place, Gu Zheng said regretfully. Without Brook's explanation, he could also tell that it wasn't a connection point. In fact, it wasn't difficult to check. The space in a connection point was very weak. As long as one knew some small spatial spells, they could detect it.
Gu Zheng didn't cultivate Western magic, but he also had some understanding of spatial laws. It wasn't difficult for him to check if the space was weak.
In fact, the weapon spirit had some spatial immortal spells, including the teleportation technique that everyone was envious of. The weapon spirit had it and could teleport for short distances. Unfortunately, Gu Zheng couldn't cultivate such immortal spells now. He wasn't strong enough yet.
The first point was a complete failure. The five of them immediately went to the second point. Now that Babatos and Belle were with them, flying together wasn't a problem. Even if they encountered other Demon Gods, Babatos and Belle could go up and say that these people were with them.
The second point was a lake. It was a very big lake. The size of this lake was bigger than any lake on Earth. There were also some small islands in the lake.
The first place to check was the lake. Brook quickly shook his head. Gu Zheng also knew that this wasn't the connection point.
There was an island in the lake that was also suspected. It was an uninhabited island. It was said that there were demonic beasts here. Very few people would come here. The Demon Gods of Planto had once come to check it out, but they didn't find anything.
However, most of the ordinary people who came here didn't return. They disappeared without a trace. In the end, this place became a forbidden area for ordinary people.
"Eh?"
As soon as they arrived on the island, Brook exclaimed softly. Gu Zheng also sensed through the weapon spirit that there seemed to be some fluctuations in the space here. It wasn't stable.
"Found it!"
Brook's face showed a trace of excitement. They had been in Hell for more than a month. He didn't expect to find a place that might be a connection point so quickly. If this was really a connection point, then they had hope of returning.
The spatial fluctuations here were indeed different. The fluctuations were very big. Gu Zheng also sensed it. He was also surprised and immediately looked at Brook.
"I need to confirm if this is a spatial connection point!"
Brook took a deep breath and said to Gu Zheng. He understood the meaning behind Gu Zheng's look. In fact, he was also very excited. If this was a spatial connection point, then they might be able to return to where they wanted to go.
"Alright, confirm it as soon as possible!"
Gu Zheng gently nodded. Over the past few days, with Babatos and Belle around, Gu Zheng didn't display his culinary skills. The two of them had brought out a lot of delicacies from Hell to entertain them. Anything that could be brought out by a demon god was much better than what they could eat in the mortal world. This was something that Gu Zheng and the others could accept.
Brook immediately took out a magic array and placed it on the ground. He was very accomplished in magic arrays. Moreover, he had many portable magic arrays with him.
This magic array was a directional one-way teleportation array. As long as this was the real connection point, he could teleport the three of them back to Earth. This magic array was located in the realm of Earth.
However, because it was a one-way teleportation, when they were teleported out, they would appear in a random place on Earth. It wasn't like when the butler summoned Brook. Because it was summoned using a magic array, it was a directional teleportation. Brook appeared directly in the castle.
When they came here, it was also a one-way teleportation. They were teleported to a random place. Therefore, the place where they came out wasn't a connection point. They had to find it themselves.
On Earth, even if they appeared randomly, they could quickly find the connection point. That was their home. They were all too familiar with it.
The magic array emitted a blue light. The butler was also slightly excited. He also wanted to go back. He was even wondering if he would follow Brook to the Demon Realm if he returned to Earth.
He had always thought that following Lord Brook was his life's mission. However, when he came to Hell this time, he thought a lot. He changed to an unfamiliar environment. He really couldn't adapt to a completely unfamiliar environment.
It was the same in Hell and the Demon Realm. This made the butler have other thoughts. Perhaps following Brook wasn't his real choice. It was just their mission for generations. What he really wanted wasn't this. He still wanted to stay on Earth.
He still had children and family. They were all on Earth. This time, Brook didn't agree to take them with him. He only took him.
Back then, he had thought that after he left, their fate of being housekeepers for generations would end. His son would be able to do what he wanted to do and would definitely be very happy. However, after he left, he realized that he actually still missed his family very much. The longer he was away, the more he missed them.
The butler lowered his head. He didn't know what to say to Brook. However, if he could return to Earth, he really didn't want to go to the Demon Realm with Brook. He wanted to stay on Earth forever.
The magic formation shone even brighter. Gu Zheng and Brook looked at the magic formation with slight excitement. Babatos and Belle sighed slightly.
Although they were happy to see Brook, they didn't expect Brook to leave so soon. If possible, they really wanted Brook to stay. An expert like Jin Xian would be of great help to them.
However, if Brook wasn't willing, they could only give up. If he didn't stay willingly, he wouldn't be of any help to them.
Kacha!
The space suddenly broke open. A monster with a cat's head, a horse's body, and a long tail and three claws suddenly appeared.
"Demonic beast!"
Babatos was the first to shout. When he shouted, he and Belle had already moved. This demonic beast had a strong demonic aura. It wasn't weak.
Gu Zheng also moved. He and the weapon spirit didn't notice this demonic beast before. It was as if it had suddenly appeared. However, this demonic beast was indeed not weak. It had the strength of the late-stage Void Return.
Not only was it at the late-stage Void Return, but it was also at the peak of the late-stage Void Return. If it was lucky enough, it could break through to the Jin Xian Realm in one step.
The demonic beast roared ferociously when it appeared. Brook was controlling the magic formation, but Gu Zheng and Babatos had already surrounded the demonic beast in the middle to prevent it from disturbing Brook.
"Damn Demonic God!"
The demonic beast spoke human language and roared angrily. This demonic beast was extremely intelligent and had the ability to speak.
In Hell, some demonic beasts actually looked similar to Demonic Gods. However, there were still differences. The biggest difference was their strength. Demonic Gods cultivated the power of Demonic Gods while demonic beasts cultivated demonic power.
Just like on Earth, Immortal Cultivators cultivated immortal power while Demonic Cultivators cultivated demonic power. Their strengths were different. Even if they were the same, they were existences that opposed each other.
The Demonic Gods and demonic beasts of Hell were existences that opposed each other. Moreover, they had always been fighting. It was impossible for them to compromise.
"Kill it!"
Babatos roared coldly. When a Demonic God encountered a demonic beast, it was like a righteous cultivator who had a grudge against a demonic cultivator. There was basically no possibility of peace.
Babatos was the first to act. He took out a bright bow and arrow and drew the long string.
Belle also took out his weapon. The cat-headed demonic beast roared and its entire body emitted white light. The surrounding space suddenly became a little distorted. The arrow that Babatos shot was shot to an unknown place.
"I see. Sigh!"
Brook, who was at the side, sighed heavily. There were indeed fluctuations in the space here. At first, he was very happy. He thought that he had found the spatial connection point and could go back.
However, he did not expect to be disappointed in the end.
There were fluctuations in the space here, but it was not because of the spatial connection point. It was because of this demonic beast. This demonic beast actually had a very rare spatial talent. Before they came, it had hidden in the space and was not detected by them.
Originally, as long as they left, this demonic beast would reappear. However, not only did they not leave, but they also used a spatial magic array.
A spatial magic array also had spatial abilities. At this time, it had to come out. Otherwise, it might be squeezed into meat paste by an even more chaotic space. Therefore, it jumped out angrily. After it came out, the spatial fluctuations did not exist. This meant that this was not the place they were looking for.
Therefore, Brook sighed. This was just an accident. An accident that had a very small probability of happening. In the end, they encountered it.
Babatos and Belle were already fighting with the demonic beast. The demonic beast was stronger than any of them. Moreover, it had a strange spatial ability. For a moment, they were helpless against this demonic beast.
