Su Mo and the Sixth Elder settled down in the Hell Realm.
The two of them were arranged to stay in a black palace far away from the black tower. This palace wasn't very big, but it still occupied an area of more than a hundred feet. It was divided into two floors.
However, this palace was really not suitable for Su Mo and the Sixth Elder to live in. This was because the palace was constantly emitting a gloomy aura, which made them uncomfortable.
Su Mo and the Sixth Elder took out some giant stones and wood from their Spacial Device and built a simple palace next to the black palace.
With their strength, building a small palace was as easy as eating and drinking.
The palace was already built. Su Mo stood in front of the palace and carefully looked at the core of the Hell Realm.
This was a low-lying land. There was a circle of small mounds around the buildings, which surrounded all the buildings in the Hell Realm.
All the buildings here seemed to be built around the giant black tower in the center. That was because all the buildings were facing the giant tower, as if they were believers worshipping it.
The black tower stood tall, emitting a gloomy and terrifying aura, which made people feel awe.
"Su Mo, this tower is the source of the Hell Realm's strength. It affects the entire Hell Realm." The Sixth Elder stood beside Su Mo. He was worried that someone would spy on them, so he used his mind to transmit a message to Su Mo.
"Do you think … the so-called Hell Soul Bowl is in the tower?" Su Mo asked telepathically.
"Very likely." The Sixth Elder nodded.
Su Mo was silent for a while before he continued, "Although I saved Qian Xunyue, her Spiritual Soul has been fading away. I think it's because of the Hell Soul Bowl."
"I guessed that you came to the Hell Realm with a purpose." The Sixth Elder nodded slightly. Before coming to the Hell Realm, he had already guessed that Su Mo came not just for the protection of the Hell Realm.
"So, I want to enter the tower." Su Mo said.
"Absolutely not!"
The Sixth Elder immediately shook his head and said, "We don't know anything about the situation in the tower. It's too risky for you to act rashly. Let's observe first. If it doesn't work, we can look for the Phosphor Emperor. Since we are now people of the Hell Realm, as long as it doesn't harm the interests of the Hell Realm, they have no reason not to help you."
Su Mo thought for a while and nodded slightly. It was definitely not a good time to act. He would observe for a while first.
…
In the black palace, the Phosphorescent Sovereign sat on a spacious throne made of skeletons. In front of him stood the Ten-Thorn Yaksha King.
"Dou Luo, tell the 3,000 Macro Worlds that Su Mo and Guang Pu are members of the Hell Realm from now on. They will be protected by the Hell Realm." Phosphor King ordered.
"Lord Phosphor King, I'm afraid that Su Mo is up to no good." The Ten-Thorned Yaksha King said expressionlessly. Over the years, many people had used various methods and excuses to sneak into the Infernal Realm. They had to guard against them.
"It doesn't matter." The Phosphor Sovereign shook his head nonchalantly.
"Will our actions anger the Celestial Realm?" The Ten-Thorn Yaksha King asked.
"It's fine." Luminous Sovereign continued to shake his head indifferently. Who was Ji Haobai? He was far from representing the Heaven Human Realm.
"Mm!" The Ten-Thorn Yaksha King replied, then turned around to leave.
"Also, send someone to inform the Primordial Continent of this matter." The Phosphor King added. Although Su Mo could not go to the Primordial Continent at the moment, there was a need to inform them in advance.
"Yes!" The Ten-Thorn Yaksha King nodded. It was indeed necessary to inform the Primordial Continent. If Su Mo really wanted to join the Infernal Realm, this would be the prelude to Su Mo's integration with the outside world.
…
In the Infernal Realm, there was no difference between day and night. There was also no activity. To Su Mo and the Sixth Elder, it was extremely boring.
They had been in the Infernal Realm for three months. However, other than the usual patrol teams, they had not seen many living beings.
Although there were many buildings around, they did not see anyone from the Infernal Realm walking around. No one came to manage him and the Sixth Elder, and no one came to inform them of the rules of the Infernal Realm.
The entire Infernal Realm gave people the feeling that it was gloomy and dead. There was no vitality to speak of.
On this day, Su Mo walked out of his palace alone and walked towards the palace where the Phosphor Sovereign was. He wanted to directly ask for the purpose of his visit.
This was because, after observing for a period of time, he realized that it was impossible for him to sneak into the giant black tower in the center, even if he had many tricks up his sleeves.
A few days ago, Su Mo had gone out twice and chatted with a few Yakshas from the patrol teams of the Infernal Realm. Although he did not get any substantial information out of them, he had a basic understanding of the Phosphor Sovereign.
In the Infernal Realm, other than the supreme Hell Master, there were three Hell Emperors and hundreds of Hell Kings.
The Hell Emperors were experts at the High Extreme of the Dao Realm, while the Hell Kings were experts at the Medium Extreme of the Dao Realm. For example, the Ten-Thorn Yaksha King that Su Mo had met for the first time was a Hell King.
In the Infernal Realm, the Hell Master almost never appeared. The real rulers were the three Hell Emperors.
These three Hell Emperors were the Phosphor Sovereign, the Soul Emperor, and the Lizard Sovereign.
Not long after, Su Mo came to the black palace gate of the Phosphor Sovereign and cupped his fists. "Junior Su Mo greets Senior Phosphor Sovereign!"
The black palace was silent. After five breaths of time, the Phosphor Sovereign's voice was heard. "What are you here for?"
"Senior, I have an important matter that I hope you can explain to me." Su Mo bowed.
"Come in!"
The Phosphor Sovereign's deep voice rang out. The black palace gate opened gently.
Su Mo strode into the palace. It was dark inside, and the floor and walls were burning with a faint green flame.
However, these flames did not seem to hurt anyone.
The Phosphor Sovereign was sitting on a throne made of skulls. He was high up and his eyes were sharp.
"Greetings, Senior Phosphor Sovereign." Su Mo came forward and bowed.
"Speak!" The Phosphor Sovereign was a man of few words.
"Senior, I have a true love. She was killed a long time ago and I saved her. However, she fell into a coma again and the power of her Spiritual Soul kept dissipating. It seems that it was absorbed into the Hell Realm. Please save her." Su Mo cupped his fists and said respectfully. He went straight to the point and pointed out the reason for his request.
The Phosphor Sovereign's eyes narrowed. He said, "Is this why you came to the Infernal Realm?"
"This is only one of the reasons.
The most important thing is that the Infernal Realm can protect me. " Su Mo said in a deep voice. Of course, he was here for Qian Xunyue. He did not need the protection of the Infernal Realm.
The Phosphor Sovereign was silent for a while. He asked, "Where is your love?"
Su Mo waved his arm and Qian Xunyue, who was lying in the coffin, appeared in the palace.
The Phosphor Sovereign's eyes became like a pool of stagnant water. He looked at Qian Xunyue and remained silent.
"Senior, how can I save her?" Su Mo asked in a deep voice. He believed that the Phosphor Sovereign had a way. Qian Xunyue's abnormality must have something to do with the Hell Soul Bowl.
"Su Mo, I can indeed save her. However, what reason do I have to save her?" The Phosphor Sovereign said coldly and emotionlessly.
He could let Su Mo stay in the Infernal Realm, but he had no obligation to save her.
"Senior, how can I make you willing to save her?" Su Mo frowned slightly but remained respectful.
"If you want to save her, you have to prove your worth." The Phosphor Sovereign said.
"How?" Su Mo asked.
"There will be a time for you to prove yourself. Go back first!" The Phosphor Sovereign shook his head and waved his hand.
Su Mo felt helpless but he could only retreat for the time being. He kept Qian Xunyue's coffin and bid farewell to the Phosphor Sovereign.
When he returned to his palace, Su Mo briefly told the Sixth Elder about the situation. Then, he started to cultivate alone.
He wanted to improve his strength for the time being. There would always be an opportunity to save Qian Xunyue.
This was a separate secret room. The Sixth Elder had already set up an array. Su Mo sat cross-legged in the secret room and used the Law of Time to change the flow of time. Then, he immersed himself in cultivation.
This time, he was prepared to reach the Great Completion Realm in one go. By then, he would be able to fight against a Dao Realm expert.
