The third floor of the Fiend Castle. An enormous counter stood tall at the entrance. In front of the counter, a middle-aged man with a profound aura of a Highgod was standing there.
Right at this moment, the old man walked over as well.
"Milord, welcome. I am Monroe, the receptionist of the third floor. I am extremely honored to meet you, lord Seven Star Fiend. What are your orders, milord? "
The middle-aged man bowed gracefully, then asked in a friendly voice.
"I want to issue a mission?"
"Yes!" The middle-aged man nodded, then took out a crystal pen and a piece of leather paper, preparing to record it down.
However, before doing so, he still explained everything that needed to be said.
"Milord, you should know the rules of our Fiend Castle. Different types of missions and different levels of missions have different fees. Might I ask, milord, what type of mission and level are you going to issue this time?"
For a Seven Star Fiend to issue a mission meant that the level of difficulty must be quite high.
"A Seven Star Fiend level mission with a bounty for one life!"
"A bounty mission?" The middle-aged man was slightly startled. This sort of mission was very rare, and also very difficult. Only, what sort of treasure was this lord going to use to attract others?
"As for the bounty item, this is it!" The old man knew the rules, and so he didn't waste any time. With a flip of his hand, several deep azure drops of water appeared in his palm.
As soon as they appeared, the entire third floor began to emanate a vast, terrifying ripple.
"Sovereign's Might?" The middle-aged receptionist's face was filled with shock. This item … to him, this was something that only existed in legends. This lord was actually going to use Sovereign's Might as a bounty.
This time, this mission was most likely going to attract far, far too many people …
"Ten drops of Sovereign's Might in exchange for that fellow's life!" The black-robed elder ground his teeth. "However, I still have to state my specific request. I want that fellow to die. At the same time, no matter who kills him, the items on his body will belong to me. As for the items in his interspatial ring, I don't want them. Understood?"
As the black-robed elder spoke, he handed over the ten drops of Sovereign's Might.
"Milord, this isn't in accordance with the rules …" The middle-aged man said while carefully sealing away the ten drops of Sovereign's Might.
"Rules? No, these aren't your rules. These are my, Oxus Kaner's, request. All you need to do is pass this message on to the participants! "
Kaner's clan of Sovereigns of the Celestial Realm. Even in the Infernal Realm, they were quite famous.
This middle-aged man was very knowledgeable and had naturally heard of it.
"I understand!"
Although Heaven and Hell were not on good terms, that was a matter between the Main Gods. For these gods, the Main Gods were the Main Gods. Even the descendants of the Main Gods could not be underestimated.
As long as he didn't break the rules of the Demon Castle, he could still give him some face.
"Milord, the price for this mission is one drop of Sovereign's Might!"
"At the same time, this appraisal mission is simply too dangerous. We need to make an accurate judgement. Thus, milord, you will need to add another drop of Sovereign's Might. When the time comes, our Demon Castle will send people to verify the danger level of this mission and make an accurate judgment! "
"Alright!" The old man, Oakes, nodded, then handed over two more drops of Sovereign's Might.
Truth be told, he felt the pinch as well. But compared to half a branch from the Dominus of Life, and the temptation of the Patriarch's appreciation, he was more than willing to pay this price.
Beep beep beep …
As the middle-aged man spoke, he tapped on a strange machine on the counter, producing a ticking sound.
"The mission has already been issued. Once we confirm it, we can issue it. Every single Demon Castle is connected to each other. This sort of mission also needs to be verified. Milord, your mission has just been issued to the upper echelons. After confirming it, it will be issued to all Demon Castles. "
"All of the Fiends in the entire Infernal Realm will receive this news. At that time, if someone completes the mission, our Demon Castle will naturally deliver ten drops of Sovereign's Might to them!"
There was no need to doubt the power of the Demon Castle. No matter where the mission was completed, the Sovereign's Might wouldn't be lacking.
…..
The second day after the mission was issued, Tielong City's Fiend Castle, which was located near the Lake of Death, received a mission.
The first day, a metallic lifeform set off from the Fiend Castle towards the Crescent Castle, but it never returned.
The second day, an expert appeared from the Fiend Castle. He entered Tielong City's governor's estate and discussed some things.
The governor of Tielong City, a Seven Star Fiend, personally flew to the Crescent Castle to confirm whether or not the mission was true.
He flew out that day, but the next day, he returned, heavily injured, while at the same time delivering this news.
…..
A year later, the Fiend Castle confirmed that the information was true. It was even more terrifying than they had imagined, but the value of ten drops of Sovereign's Might was enough. They immediately issued the mission.
At this moment, throughout the entire Redbud Continent, many Fiend Castles began to display this mission. Immediately afterwards, this mission appeared in the other continents as well.
"Special Bounty Mission: Kill the current master of the Crescent Castle on the central island of the Lake of Death within the borders of Tielong City in the Cleansing Water Prefecture!"
"Reward: Ten drops of Sovereign's Might!"
"Special Warning: The target's mission is extremely dangerous. Unless you have reached the Seven Star Fiend level, do not accept this mission!"
The Infernal Realm. The Bloodscar Mountains. The ground was littered with corpses and pools of blood.
A white-robed youth with fluttering black hair was seated in the meditative position in the middle of a pile of corpses. Suddenly, the man opened his eyes. He touched a small device at his waist, and only half a minute later did he raise his head.
He had a handsome, grim face. His eyes were grayish-white, and they flashed with an aura of death so thick that it was impossible to disperse.
"A bounty mission for ten drops of Sovereign's Might?"
"Interesting!"
"However, it is Fate-type Sovereign's Might, not Death-type Sovereign's Might. What a pity. Still, after acquiring it, I can use it to trade for it!"
The white-robed youth pondered for a moment, then stared into the distance. His body flashed, disappearing into the skies.
On the other side. The waves of the sea roared. At the borders of the boundless Chaotic Sea, there was a tall spire. Atop the spire, an old man with a head full of white hair and dressed in black armor had his eyes closed in meditation.
Right at this moment, a message came through his communicator. The old man opened his eyes and glanced at it.
"Fate-type Sovereign's Might? I can go give it a try! "
"However, the location of the mission is in the Redbud Continent. It's a bit too far from here. By the time I get there, I'm afraid …"
As he spoke, the old man narrowed his eyes, staring into the distance as he sank into deep thought.
The experts of the entire Redbud Continent and the other continents who were able to obtain information had all heard of this news.
The ordinary Fiends couldn't help but sigh, while many experts were itching to give it a try.
Some had come for the sake of Sovereign's Might. Some just wanted to watch the show. There were also some who had come for no other reason than Li Yue. Because of the 'extremely dangerous' nature of the mission, they wanted to test Li Yue's power.
There were all sorts of things.
Crescent Castle. This formerly quiet and secluded place had suddenly become bustling with activity.
But Li Yue?
At this moment, he was still training!
