Chapter 209: Twisted Puppeteer Malgani
Zhou Chu's eyes were glowing continuously at this moment.
These two Divine Artifacts were rare treasures indeed.
The amulet could resist the invasion and attacks of the Netherfire, and one could even walk freely within the world of Netherfire.
As for the Netherfire Core, it could control the Netherfire Power, thereby allowing one to manipulate the Netherfire at will for their own use.
If these two Divine Artifacts were used for oneself, one could kill almost anything in the world that was difficult to slay.
Even the demons dared not approach that place, which showed just how terrifying this Netherfire was.
It was just a pity that the Netherfire Core would soon be used up as a material; if there were no more Netherfire in this world, then keeping the amulet seemed to have no use.
Zhou Chu could not help but sigh, his gaze resting once again on the Dragon Lich before him, and then he let out another exclamation.
A Lord-level Dragon Lich, what a pity...
But perhaps it could become research material for Pantos, who knows.
It was not easy to come to the Abyss once, so he should collect what he could.
Following that, Zhou Chu directly summoned his Life Soul Artifact from behind him, and this Dragon Lich was successfully collected inside it.
Compared to the King-level Calamity Ghost Dragon, collecting this Dragon Lich seemed incomparably easy.
Moreover, this trip to the Netherfire Canyon also seemed incomparably easy.
Apart from the King-level demons, the remaining calamities or undead creatures were almost inevitably suppressed by the King of All Witches.
Then, Zhou Chu put the Nether Breath Amulet on his body and turned to leave the entrance of the Temple.
At this time, the entrance had been blocked again by the burning Netherfire.
Zhou Chu hesitated for a moment, took off the Breathing Mask from his face, and then stepped into the Netherfire.
Wrapped in the Netherfire, Zhou Chu felt none of the bone-chilling cold or the excruciating pain of his soul being scorched that he had experienced before, all thanks to the protection of the amulet.
These Netherfires now turned into painless and harmless light, surrounding his body.
Zhou Chu felt a surge of joy in his heart, then passed through the raging Netherfire and returned to the Netherfire Canyon.
Looking at the Netherfire burning across the mountains and plains, it looked like blooming flowers in Zhou Chu's eyes at this moment, appearing gorgeous and dazzling.
However, for all things in the world, this Netherfire was ultimately a quite terrifying thing.
Thinking of this, Zhou Chu waved his hand gently, only to see the Netherfire in his eyes gradually dim, and then extinguish one after another.
Zhou Chu waved his hand again, and the Netherfire appeared once more, burning joyfully.
It seemed that the feeling of controlling this fire of death was quite good.
Zhou Chu had an excited look on his face, constantly letting the Netherfire before him burn and extinguish, extinguish and burn, tireless in his enjoyment.
At this time, in the Abyssal Purgatory City.
On a high throne sat a man with purple skin and light purple hair; one could see that his ten slender fingers were each wearing a golden ring, and each ring was connected to a transparent thread.
And those ten threads were penetrating an illusory image in front of him, inside which several human Soul Professionals were killing each other under the manipulation of those transparent threads.
Very quickly, these few human Soul Professionals fell one after another in the mutual slaughter, staining the ground bright red.
Seeing this, the man curled his lips into a cold arc, a flash of disdain and satisfaction appearing in his eyes.
He lifted his hand gently, and those transparent threads retracted rapidly like spirit snakes and disappeared, and even the image before him vanished instantly.
Just at this moment, a hunched figure in a black robe hurried into the great hall, knelt on one knee, and said respectfully: "Lord Malgani, we have just lost contact with the Netherfire Temple hundreds of kilometers away; the Netherfire there has produced abnormal fluctuations."
"We speculate that there must have been an intrusion by an unknown outsider!"
"Oh? Who exactly is it? To actually be unaffected by the Netherfire?" The man raised his eyebrows slightly, a flash of surprise appearing in his eyes.
"Could it be that Temple Keeper?"
The man pondered for a moment, then quickly dismissed this thought.
That Temple Keeper was just a lowly Dragon Lich; it was impossible for him to manipulate the two Divine Artifacts enshrined in the Temple.
Even he, a King-level demon, did not have the power to control the two Divine Artifacts.
"Could it be that the Evil God has successfully awakened?"
Malgani racked his brains for a moment, but ultimately could not figure it out.
Logically speaking, if the Evil God had awakened, they, these demons, would all have sensed it.
Especially as the Twisted Puppeteer, he would be the first to sense the soul fluctuations of the Evil God.
In order to verify the doubts in his heart, Malgani waved his slender palm in front of him, and an image appeared before him.
It was a secret chamber made of black, the interior of which was entirely crafted from Ink Gold; a middle-aged man wearing the uniform of an Exorcism Army Commander was continuously pouring Soul Blood onto that black Crystal.
Malgani could sense a trace of the Evil God's faint soul fluctuations from that middle-aged man, but there was more activity from the Black Dragon Egg.
Contained within was the remnant body of the Evil God, and that wisp of the Evil God's divine consciousness had already invaded this middle-aged man.
It seemed it would still take some time for the Evil God to fully awaken; there should be no results in the short term.
After ruling out the possibility of the Evil God's awakening, Malgani's brow furrowed even tighter.
He now had to extend his own soul power to the Netherfire Canyon hundreds of kilometers away to investigate.
But he had to investigate the situation there in the shortest possible time, because soul power would also be eroded by the Netherfire.
If the time were delayed any longer, it would be highly likely to be burned by the Netherfire, and subsequently infected with the Netherfire poison.
As a demon in the Abyss, he was very clear about the power of the Netherfire; once infected with the Netherfire poison, there was no cure.
One could only watch helplessly as one's body and soul were devoured bit by bit, until they perished.
That feeling was simply worse than death.
And the only person who could cure the Netherfire poison was the Evil God, but now that the Evil God had not yet fully awakened, he dared not take too great a risk.
Malgani calmed his heart, then extended his soul power with all his might, probing rapidly toward the Netherfire Canyon.
At this time, deep in the Netherfire Canyon, the Netherfire had been extinguished once again under Zhou Chu's control.
However, the Netherfire did not ignite again, because Zhou Chu was lost in thought at this moment.
Since he possessed the ability to control Netherfire, should he completely resolve the Netherfire disaster here?
After all, this was the Abyss, and Zhou Chu should not have had this kind of kindness, but once he thought about how Netherfire Canyon was a natural barrier blocking the outside world from attacking the Abyss, this idea formed in his mind.
Just as Zhou Chu was deep in thought, the soul power of Malgani quietly approached.
"Master, I sense a soul power quietly approaching." At this moment, the voice of Lucita suddenly rang out in Zhou Chu's mind.
Because Zhou Chu and Lucita were engaged in Soul Entanglement, he could also sense the quiet arrival of this soul power.
"It is Malgani, one of the Abyss Ten Great Evil Demons; he is using soul power to spy on this place!" Lucita's warning voice came again.
Hearing that it was another evil god, Zhou Chu hurriedly waved his palm in front of him, and Netherfire blossomed everywhere once again.
