Beware the Lord of the Nine Hells!
In an instant, these words resounded in Zhao Xu's heart again.
No wonder, from the beginning, he kept hearing this advice.
It’s no wonder that Antinoya had to be careful when she went to the Nine Hells of Baator in person, bringing the legendary “pale justice” with her.
Obviously the entire hell is not as complicated as the abyss. The total number of gods and powerful abyss lords is no less than three digits, which can be called the highest density of Arthur.
In the entire nine levels of hell, except for Asmodeus, the lord of hell, there are only nine levels. Counting their respective bosses, even if all those who have been deposed are counted, the number of strong ones can only be determined by two digits. Just a little bit ahead.
As for the Nine Hells, not even half of the gods chose it as the location of the Kingdom of God, not even the lawful evil ones.
Even the mage who studied the abyss complained that the Lord of Hell just chose the place to have an advantage. It was just luck. If he was reincarnated in the abyss, he would only be able to control one of the levels.
But having said that, compared to a pile of loose sand in the abyss, the entire nine hells can be said to be completely in the hands of Asmodeus.
Even the appointment of lords in the ninth plane was decided by him.
Even if a character like the "Lord of the Abyss" does appear in the future, it will be difficult to match the power of the Lord of the Nine Hells in controlling the entire plane.
One of the creation dragons, the incarnation of order, and the ruler of the nine hells.
When these are connected in series, the power of the Lord of Hell seems to be naturally explained.
In an instant, Zhao Xu's eyes fell into a state of confusion, and boundless vortices swirled, carrying his sight and soul flying into the sky.
Slowly, he seemed to have traveled back to the entire Arthur world, which was still in a state of chaos.
At that moment, everything around him was foggy. Although he had the outline of the entire world, the structure of the outer interface also faintly emerged.
But everything was clear and lifeless.
There is naturally no death.
Nothingness is the greatest will in this world.
It was like a huge ship sailing towards destruction, floating on the magnificent sea, but the lights on the hull were extinguished, and it remained silent, as if dead, until it crashed into an iceberg and completed its final mission.
Here, there is no god who decrees that the world should have light.
There is no life and all things to reproduce and make the world colorful.
Zhao Xu suddenly widened his eyes.
Staring straight into the void, it seemed as if it was difficult to separate and entangled with the chaotic mist—
The creation dragon!
Order and Chaos!
In the posture of Quetzalcoatl, they have long dragon tails, while the other Quetzalcoatl holds its tail and lets its own tail be held.
Formed a circle of destiny.
The final ring.
initial ring.
Immediately, the color of the sky and the earth changed, the mountains and rivers collapsed, and like the fog suddenly dissipated, all the existences hidden in the darkness were revealed in the bright universe.
Zhao Xu saw it.
The Quetzalcoatl, which represented order, let out an angry roar. It was full of anger and stared at the other twin companion.
Suddenly.
The good and evil of heaven and earth are also clarified in this second and differentiated at the same time.
And order and chaos are constantly falling towards the deepest plane barrier, and the entire Arthur Tianyu range is gradually opening up.
The giant wheel of the plane also took shape for the first time.
until.
The Quetzalcoatl of Order hit the ground, and the boundless power of the planes instantly condensed, and then transformed into nine levels of hell—
The first level is Avernus, the second level is Dis, the third level is Minauros, the fourth level is Phlegethos, the fifth level is Stygia, the sixth level is Malborgi, and the seventh level is Mara Domini, eighth-level Kania, and ninth-level Nessus.
The nine levels of Baator Hell are arranged up and down in a funnel shape, with the largest Avernus at the top and the smallest Nessus at the bottom.
Zhao Xu saw from it a pure law and evil thoughts that existed at all levels, which were formed in the process of spraying blood. They were dense under the dim and ethereal shadows of the sky and on the scorched earth-like ground.
At the same time, blood spilled out one after another and fell on the surface of hell. Gradually, devils climbed out of the ground one after another.
With confused eyes, angry eyes, and pilgrim eyes, they all knelt down to the ninth level of hell, Nasus, to the place where life was born, and to the place of will and alignment.
At the same time, there was a roar from heaven and earth—
When you enter this place, you must give up hope!
The cursed plain of Nessus emerged in a swirling crimson void. The evil power of order and law was like a cage, sealing off this world, and all the power of chaos retreated.
The general outline of the plane is like an oval, with jagged edges of land. The absolutely flat surface allows people to easily see the surrounding scenery in detail.
At the same time, due to the impact, the ground formed crisscrossing mountains, canyons and ditches. They were like a grid, drawing a dragnet across the entire arid rock formations, and at the bottom of these gaps, there was an infinite space created.
The man who fell into the Lawful Quetzalcoatl slowly crawled out of the pit that tore his flesh and blood, and stood up again in the place where he stopped falling - Baator Hell.
The end of the deep crater left by the impact has become an eternal surface symbol of Nessus - the famous snake coil, a spiraling canyon, and a swirling crack on the surface.
At the same time, every drop of blood splashed here becomes a hell fiend with full life. They are fanatical and loyal, constantly roaring in this snake coiled canyon, praising the greatness of creation.
Asmodeus stood up, his body still dripping with blood from the collision that opened up the plane.
Those wounds have never healed, as if the eternal curse of time has been with him for a long time.
The once lawful creation dragon dies.
Asmodeus, a horned humanoid with red skin and an elegant and proud expression, woke up.
His cold gaze looked directly at Zhao Xu through the void.
Slowly, the other person's image began to change—
A powerful devil with shiny black skin and hair, who is four meters tall.
That handsome face was full of danger, his red eyes exuded an evil light, and there was a pair of sharp little horns on his forehead. He was wearing a gorgeous robe set with black diamonds and rubies, and he was holding a A ruby scepter symbolizing the supreme power of hell.
The other party raised his scepter and gave him a ferocious smile.
For a moment, Zhao Xu fell into a trance, woke up from the depths of his sleep, and returned from the void of history.
He looked at the old man in front of him with blank eyes, which was the lowest level of the abyss, the incarnation of the bottomless realm.
This is the scene when we were separated.
Finally, the old man knelt down towards Zhao Xu.
Zhao Xu, who still had a trace of confusion in his eyes, walked silently in the void with his hands behind his back.
He seemed to feel the trance of the abyss at this moment.
He felt the resonance of the will coming from the abyss, calling him, trying to reintegrate with him.
But what about his
Zhao Xu saw the scene of Asmodeus's rebirth.
But he didn't see his own.
It seems that it has re-condensed into an intractable mystery.
"Then what do I need to do next?" Zhao Xu asked helplessly.
Facing this situation, he fell into deep confusion and confusion.
Countless powers of the abyss came cheering and rushing around him, as if to completely transform his body into the essential existence of the abyss.
He heard the resonance, felt the resonance, and even sensed the common call of this world.
Zhao Xu also saw that on the camp square of his character card, the line between the camp and the chaotic camp was moving unstoppably towards the end of the chaos.
Like the incarnation of chaos.
He is the biggest common denominator of the chaos in this world.
In an instant, Zhao Xu took a deep breath and turned his head to look at the old man kneeling on the ground.
"Um?"
At this time, it seemed that every word and every action he took had a profound and ancient aura that naturally exuded without the need to imitate.
"Tell me, what do you need me to do?"
The old man bent his head further and further, "Master, the only thing I need you to do is to open the 'Abyss Scroll' you left behind."
"This supreme artifact that was originally created by you and contains all the secrets of the abyss is the means of your return."
"As long as you open it, you will have invincible power in the world in an instant. This is both a foreshadowing and a key part of your destiny."
Zhao Xu couldn't help but shake his head.
"But didn't someone else read the Abyss Scroll in the first place?"
"That's true." The old man knelt down even lower, as if he wanted to press his forehead tightly to the ground, not daring to raise it at all.
"Because the fate line has changed, and the master cannot be exposed to it no matter what, all the world lines are spied on by Asmodeus, who woke up first, and killed them one by one. "
"So when the abyss scholar appeared, I let him in and browsed the 'Abyss Scroll'. Finally, after he left this plane, he went out to the outside world and wrote the 'Book of Darkness' that transformed into countless artifacts. roll'."
this
Zhao Xu suddenly woke up.
Did he come into contact with that mysterious oil painting
"Didn't you say that the moment I came to the abyss, as long as I touched the portal, I would be teleported here accurately?"
The old man smiled bitterly and said, "That's what I said, but if you take one step earlier, Master, you will be killed by the Lord of Hell first."
"Annihilating you to the end of the world, and even from that moment on, he will wipe out everything related to you, including your territory and everyone you know."
"So all of this requires a plan to hide everything."
"The Scroll of Darkness is a key part of this plan. As long as it has its breath, the countless divided Scrolls of Darkness in the entire abyss will be scattered, like countless substitutes."
"Even if the Lord of the Nine Hells could detect it at that moment, it would be of no use, because he doesn't know which place you are the master of. Not to mention that if he breaks into the abyss without authorization, he will be suppressed by the plane. Power cannot be transformed into millions of people and capture them one by one.”
"And the most critical part of this is that you must come into contact with a 'Scroll of Darkness'. Fortunately, Master, you have indeed done it."
Hearing this, Zhao Xu let out a deep sigh.
Who would have thought that all of this would actually come down to an oil painting
No, it should be said to be an artifact.
Aham's Dark Scroll!
Unexpectedly, this volume recording demonic knowledge, in addition to containing information about purgatory creatures and the abyss, and providing mysterious power to its users, actually contains such a profound "game" behind it, waiting for his return.
Zhao Xu couldn't help but recall what Antinoya described to him on the spot -
Aham's Dark Tome consists of hundreds of individual chapters.
The chapters of lesser artifacts are not unique—the chapters appear in books, scrolls, and copies on nearly every plane.
This series of artifacts has been extremely secretive from the moment it appeared.
It was really the blessing of the abyss that allowed it to become a divine weapon.
The artifact that reveals the secrets of the abyss can exist forever in the abyss. How could it be possible without the permission of the will of the abyss
It's ridiculous that those demons who want to take it back and destroy it are actually doing a great favor to the Lord of Hell.
But he immediately thought of something wrong.
"But, didn't the original Ernest come here before?"
Zhao Xu instinctively thought that Ernest was most likely him.
According to his guess, at some point in the future, he traveled through time and space and returned to the ancient days of Arthur, where he met May and took her under his wing, becoming the first believer.
Later, due to a certain encounter, he fell in love with Antinoya, who was still a little girl, and took her in the palm of his hand, accepting her as his direct disciple. He was even willing to sacrifice the entire Magic Empire for her safety.
And when he left the current Arthur and returned to the historical Arthur, he must have encountered something else in the process to have the extremely powerful scene that happened at that time.
It's not that Zhao Xu is exaggerating, but he feels that the current world cannot cultivate an Ernest who came to ancient times and could destroy everything.
This was also the "version" that Zhao Xu had secretly guessed, and it was also the version that he felt was closest to the truth.
However, in this case, Ernest may have already been exposed to the "Abyss Scroll"
At that time, shouldn't he have climbed to the top immediately and become the Lord of the Abyss
In an instant, Zhao Xu regained his vigilance.
Although he was absorbing the power of the abyss around him, he could hear the cheers coming from his ears.
But the news just now was based on the old man's unilateral dictation.
From beginning to end, all he knew was what the other party showed him.
It was just like when he found a stone tablet and interpreted it to get the amazing story on it.
They are all isolated examples, lacking corresponding auxiliary proof, and there is no complete chain of evidence.
It is even unclear whether this level is the true bottomless realm of the abyss.
