Humans are devouring and selling off the heavens

Chapter 372 The Devil of Deals

"How many intellectual lives would that require?" Luo didn't know what Xu Qing wanted to do with the intellectual lives. In his eyes, probably no one would dare to let the negativity in the sea of ​​the mind surge, because that would bring great terror.

But he couldn't help asking, since he was in Hell and unless he had the power to create a universe, he couldn't escape Hell and return to the multiverse.

All he could do was create some clones.

He was extremely nervous about Xu Qing's answer.

After all, he was in Hell, which was not like the multiverse. It was one of the four forbidden zones. Although it was connected to the lower planes and was a bottomless abyss, it was still sparsely populated. Those living there were all demons and devils. The so-called intelligent life forms probably numbered no more than a hundred billion.

Even if these lives are all extraordinary, including many demigods, gods, demon princes, and even saints, it's questionable whether they can be exchanged for a single pill.

As he asked the question, Xu Qing smiled and looked at him, as if she could see through his thoughts, and then said, "I know you are in hell, and you only need a hundred billion lives to obtain a pill of the level of a universe master."

"Ten billion?!"

Luo was startled, his whole body jolted uncontrollably, and a blazing light flashed in his eyes.

A hundred billion intelligent lives can be exchanged for a single elixir. Although most beings in Hell are mindless beasts, even if intelligent lives are few, there are still thousands of layers in the entire region, so a hundred billion intelligent lives are definitely within reach.

A hundred billion pills—that's a full ten pills! The potency of these pills is comparable to devouring the primordial power of ten innate saints. Not to mention restoring his cultivation that had been sealed for hundreds of millions of years, it would be no difficult task for him to take another step forward and reach an even higher realm!

Upon thinking of this, he could not hide the joy on his usually composed face.

Xu Qing's next words shook him to his core, and he almost couldn't suppress the surging power within him: "If you can trade all the Void Lords and Hell Lords in Hell to me, that would be wonderful. I will not only give you a hundred Universe Lord Pills, but also several King of Divine Artifacts."

Emptying out Hell?!

A hundred pills, and several top-tier divine artifacts at the level of the ten innate spiritual treasures?!

Luo was stunned for a long time after hearing this, and couldn't come to his senses for a moment.

Looking at Xu Qingyun's nonchalant demeanor, he couldn't help but inwardly grumble.

Are you the demon, or are those beasts in hell the demons?

A deal involving demons has been made, and even the lords of hell have come.

Although he had this idea from the beginning, it was essentially about making up for the lack of quantity with quality.

After all, those Void Lords were at least high-level Saints, having lived for countless billions of years.

Although after the War of Creation and the suppression by the Human Emperor, only three or four of the more than twenty primordial demons, Void Lords, and Ancestors of Evil in the Bottomless Abyss and lower planes remain, they are still a force to be reckoned with in the multiverse.

But this was not a big deal for Luo.

In the eyes of Luo, the Lord of War, a mere three or four high-level saints and innate saints were nothing more than ants that could be crushed with one hand.

"Please wait a moment, Master. I'll be right back."

After saying this, Luo disappeared. When he opened his eyes again, he was back in hell.

The underworld, also known as the netherworld or hell, is a place of darkness.

However, this hell has nothing to do with the lower plane's Bathor Purgatory or anything like that.

The Netherworld is one of the four forbidden zones in the multiverse. Theoretically, it is a forbidden zone that can only be entered but not exited.

Of course, this is only in theory. In reality, it's not impossible to enter and exit the four forbidden zones, but at least one must be a pre-heavenly being; otherwise, entry is essentially impossible. And this is only in the prehistoric era. If we move to the future, to the human era, then the four forbidden zones will truly be considered forbidden zones. After being sealed and suppressed by the Four Symbols, Five Elements, and Eight Trigrams, they will become pre-heavenly beings—

All beings at every level are trapped within it.

The most unique of these four forbidden zones are the Spacetime Turbulence and the Netherworld. One is the place of reincarnation for all non-living things in the multiverse, and the other is the place of reincarnation for all living things in the multiverse. They are basically easy to enter but difficult to leave, and ordinary people cannot even find the entrance unless they use special means.

At this very moment————

boom!!

Rumble!!!

It was as if stars were collapsing and countless stars were exploding. An incredibly terrifying explosion rang out, shaking almost the entire Netherworld and even the bottomless abyss connected to it!

As soon as Luo Fu returned to the Underworld, the fierce battle intent that had been suppressed for millions of years swept across the land like a tsunami. Even the endless karmic fire surging in the depths of hell was subdued, and the black rocky land of the Underworld cracked inch by inch, turning into ashes.

Rumble, rumble!!

Amidst the terrifying tremors, as if the universe were collapsing.

The next moment, a colossal giant rose from the core of the underworld, its eyes as large as the sun and moon. With each blink of its eyes, boundless radiance illuminated the netherworld, brightening this dark and sunless hell.

When the giant hand stretched out, it was like a galaxy collapsing, pressing down on the void and causing it to crumble.

This is a giant whose body alone is larger than the Milky Way!

This is his true form after his origin was unsealed; he is the ancestor of the Titans, the lord of war, and an ancient comrade-in-arms! He is Luo, the most powerful of the innate demon gods!

He raised his palm, a gigantic hand that blotted out the sky and the sun, ignoring the spatial barriers and bone-corroding malevolent energy of the bottomless abyss, and pierced straight through the countless layers of the abyss churning with black tides.

In an instant, the bottomless abyss shattered layer by layer, and countless lower planes were instantly destroyed.

The entire bottomless abyss has thousands of layers, almost identical to that vast cosmic plane, and is incredibly enormous.

But under Luo's enormous body, which was almost as vast as the universe, a single gust of wind from his palm could capture billions of demons out of thin air. Screams, howls, and roars reverberated through hundreds of layers of hell. The low-level demons and abyssal monsters had no chance to struggle in his palm, and were all locked together by the distorted spatial power.

In the deepest part of the abyss, the three or four remaining primordial demons were finally awakened by this overwhelming disturbance.

When they woke up, they saw a pair of huge hands that almost pierced through the entire abyss, as if they wanted to destroy the entire abyss!

With just one grab, he captured almost all the high-ranking demons, the Demon Prince!

"Ancestor of the Titans, what are you doing?!"

The Void Lord, with a thousand heads and ten thousand arms, and wreathed in world-destroying black flames, suddenly broke free from his slumbering demonic abyss. A terrifying pressure at the level of a Primordial Saint erupted from his body, and a thousand beams of world-destroying divine light shot straight into the sky. He roared furiously, "Luo! Have you gone mad?! We, like you, have been suppressed in hell by the Human Emperor for billions of years, and you dare to attack your fellow cultivators?!"

The ancestor of demons, who had transformed into billions of feet of black mist capable of corroding even space itself, also materialized in its true form. Amidst the churning black mist, countless wails of divine souls echoed from within, their voices carrying a bone-chilling coldness: "Ancestor of the Titans, have you forgotten the bond we shared, imprisoned for billions of years?!"

The remaining two high-ranking Saint-level Hell Lords also revealed their true forms. One was as tall as a black mountain, and the other held a Soul-Devouring Demon Scythe. The Abyss Barrier was shaken by their rage, and dense cracks appeared. Terrifying demonic power swept in all directions, and they actually wanted to contend with Luo.

Upon hearing this, Koro merely glanced into the depths of the abyss and let out a cold laugh that reverberated throughout the underworld, a laugh filled with contempt and disdain.

"Who do you think you are, to dare call yourself my fellow traveler?! You dog-like thing, do you even know that only Gu Cai was worthy of being my fellow traveler?!"

Before those contemptuous words could even finish, and the faces of the primordial demons had just turned ugly, Luo's giant hand, like an inverted galaxy, suddenly reached into the deepest part of the abyss. He didn't unleash any complex supernatural powers; it was just pure, immense force that exploded forth.

The thousand beams of world-destroying divine light from the Void Lord and the progenitor of evil were shredded to pieces the moment they touched the giant hand by that domineering power.

The giant finger, like a pillar supporting the sky, casually gripped the three or four top beings who had survived countless billions of years of creation battles, including high-level saints, Void Lords at the innate saint level, and the Ancestor of Demons, all in its palm.

"Ancestor of the Titans, spare us! Let us serve you in your campaigns against the Human Emperor and the Heavenly Court. We are willing to be cannon fodder. Please spare us!"

The few primordial demons who were high and mighty and extremely evil just a second ago were grabbed into Luo's palm and immediately kowtowed and begged for mercy in fear.

The gap in strength is simply too huge.

No matter what, Luo is a Lord of the Seat, or even the strongest Lord of the Seat, a being of the Emperor Saint level.

In his eyes, these high-level saints and innate saints were nothing more than ants.

"beg for mercy?"

Luo exerted a little force in his palm, and a series of crisp sounds of bones cracking and demonic bodies being crushed were heard. The roars of the demons instantly became extremely shrill, and even the holy path almost collapsed inch by inch under his enormous force.

Several demons immediately rebelled, unleashing countless powers rich in primordial energy and authority. However, these powers, enough to incinerate several planes and shatter stars, fell into Luo's palm, and Liang couldn't even budge him in the slightest.

He looked down at the few people struggling like chicks, his eyes devoid of any emotion, his voice as cold as the deepest ice of hell: "You pigs and dogs dare to be my subordinates? I will avenge the Emperor myself, but you dogs—"

"It would be better if he were dead."

After saying that, he swept his other giant hand across the ten directions of hell again. All the hell lords and demon generals lurking in the various levels of hell, regardless of their strength, were captured out of thin air and gathered together with the billions of demons in his palm.

With a flick of his finger, Luo sealed all existence within a jet-black sphere of light condensed from the very essence of war. The patterns on the surface of the sphere flowed, completely isolating the struggles and roars of the demons.

Not to mention the huge commotion caused by the underworld and the bottomless abyss.

In the multiverse, infinitely far from the underworld, beyond countless planes and universes, within the chaos billions of light-years away, in a medium-sized plane.

A dashing young man dressed in modern casual clothes is sitting comfortably on a small cauldron.

The cauldron was only slightly larger than the young man, but inside it seemed to contain billions of planes and infinite worlds, as if it contained an independent universe.

Suddenly, the valiant man seemed to sense something, opened his eyes and looked towards the bottomless abyss. His gaze was like the way of heaven, seemingly able to pierce through thousands of heavens, ten thousand layers of hell, and endless darkness.

"What is Luo doing now?!"

Upon seeing the scene in the netherworld, the valiant man frowned slightly, but seeing that Luo made no further move, he ultimately...

He simply closed his eyes gently.

It's just a few demons dying; it's a trivial matter, no need to worry about it.

On the other side, Luo held the pitch-black orb that sealed away billions of demons, several high-ranking and innate saints with his fingers. With a flicker, he reappeared in that tranquil and ancient pavilion.

He casually suspended the ball of light in mid-air. As the patterns on the ball surged, the wails and struggles of the demons inside were firmly locked, and not even a trace of their demonic power could be seen through.

Xu Qing remained seated behind the counter, lightly tapping the table with his fingertips. His gaze swept over the sphere of light, his expression completely unmoved, as if what was sealed inside was not just some insignificant dust.

"Lord, all things of Hell are here." Luo's voice still carried the domineering fierceness of his recent slaughter of the Abyss, but he unconsciously lost some of his arrogance.

The person in front of him was someone he could not underestimate.

Xu Qing raised his eyes, lightly lifted his fingertip, and the pitch-black ball of light transformed into a stream of light that disappeared into the void secret realm beside the hall, leaving no trace.

Immediately, a hundred pearly white pills condensed from the void and hung before Luo's eyes.

Each pill is imbued with a faint aura of the primordial universe.

Several other divine artifacts followed closely behind, some were knives, some were swords, and each one exuded a power that could overwhelm the heavens. They were indeed supreme treasures of the level of the ten innate spiritual treasures.

"One hundred pills and six divine artifacts, as promised, are presented." Xu Qing's voice remained calm. "Since you have kept your promise, they are yours."

Luo's gaze was fixed on the hundred pills, and his mind, which had been stagnant for millions of years, couldn't help but tremble slightly.

He reached out and took one. The pill felt cool to the touch, yet it seemed to contain a boiling universe. The moment his fingertips touched it, extremely pure energy flowed into his body through his fingertips.

Without thinking twice, he raised his hand and put the pill into his mouth.

The pill melted instantly upon entering his mouth, without a trace of impurity, transforming into a torrent of energy far more terrifying than he had imagined, crashing into his body.

boom!

Luo felt as if countless stars had been detonated simultaneously throughout his body, unleashing an endless explosion of pure energy.

"What is this energy?!"

Luo's eyes widened instantly!

He had never seen this kind of energy in the multiverse.

This energy was too pure, without any impurities. Every bit of it was comparable to a star. It was vast and mighty, like the Milky Way flowing backwards. The energy released from just this one pill was probably tens of thousands of kilometers long, and it almost instantly filled his depleted power.

His aura surged wildly, rising from the initial state after the seal was broken, all the way to his peak state from billions of years ago.

That was the supreme power of the Lord of the Seat, the pinnacle of the War Lord's power to sweep across the multiverse and dominate the battles that opened up the heavens!

Just one!

With just one pill, he replenished the losses of billions of years and directly returned to his peak condition!

Luo stood frozen in place, his body trembling slightly, a rare occurrence. His eyes were filled with extreme shock, and even his breathing became heavy.

"How is that possible?!"

He originally thought that ten pills combined would be enough to restore him to his full strength, and that a hundred pills would probably only allow him to take a slight step forward.

After all, his origin was so vast that even the combined origins of ten innate saints might not be able to fully replenish the loss of a royal saint.

The rules of a primary saint, the authority of a high-level saint, the origin of a primordial saint, and even the power of an imperial saint—each level differs by tens of thousands or even more times.

The same amount of energy, one unit of energy for a Royal Saint, would require a Primordial Saint to expend almost ten thousand or even hundreds of thousands of times more energy to resist the clash.

It is easy to imagine how great the difference is between a primordial sage and an emperor.

But this pill in front of him, with its own power, filled up all of Luo Yi's deficit over the past 100 million years without the slightest hindrance!

The amount of energy in this elixir is unimaginable!

Luo could imagine that the power he could achieve after consuming this pill would probably be the greatest among all the innate saints!
