Chapter 211: Malgani's Fear

"Netherfire Cage?"

When Malgani heard this term, he could not help but be slightly stunned.

Immediately following, he let out a burst of wild laughter.

At this moment, he could be certain that the human before him was not a new identity of the Evil God, but a genuine fake.

He had indeed overthought things earlier.

Even though all things feared Netherfire, as the deputy beside the Evil God, he knew that Netherfire would not condense into a fixed form.

It was even more impossible for it to be used to form some so-called "Netherfire Cage."

Because Netherfire was inherently a formless entity that grew wantonly, and it was precisely because of its uncontrollable nature that it became the most terrifying power in the Abyss, causing even all the evil demons to be extremely wary of it.

In Malgani's understanding, only the Evil God had the ability to guide the direction of Netherfire to a certain extent, but it was absolutely impossible to condense it into a fixed form.

"Hahahaha, you human, you are simply whimsical! You actually dare to try to scare me with something that doesn't exist?"

Malgani laughed until tears were almost coming out, his eyes full of disdain, "Today, I will let you know what a real cage is!"

As soon as Malgani finished speaking, countless transparent threads shot out from his soul power, sweeping rapidly toward Zhou Chu.

He attempted to use his powerful Puppet Manipulation Technique to make Zhou Chu his puppet, living forever in the pain of being controlled by others.

Yet the next second, a scene that surprised Malgani even more occurred.

He saw those transparent soul-manipulation threads of his, the moment they touched Zhou Chu's body, immediately turn into threads filling the sky, fluttering down, and finally turning into nothingness.

Malgani widened his eyes, the smile on his face instantly frozen, replaced by extreme shock and disbelief.

"This... how is this possible!"

Malgani's voice carried a trace of trembling; he could not understand why his soul manipulation technique, of which he was so proud, was so vulnerable before this human.

The Nether Breath Amulet worn on Zhou Chu's body had played its role.

This divine object, personally refined by the Evil God, could not only resist the invasion of Netherfire but also grant immunity to soul attacks and manipulation.

Malgani's soul threads, the moment they touched the amulet, were dissolved by its powerful force.

Zhou Chu looked at Malgani's shocked expression, the corners of his mouth slightly raised, revealing a confident smile.

"Malgani, then let me show you the power of the Netherfire Cage!"

He flicked his wrist, and the Nether Fire Flower in his palm gradually became distorted under an invisible force.

It was as if this Netherfire had been ravaged by a series of forces, finally giving up its resistance, and then transformed into a green cage the size of a basketball.

And the appearance of this cage looked exactly like the kind of birdcage used by the old men in the park who walked their birds.

Seeing this scene, Malgani was so surprised that he opened his mouth into an "O" shape.

Being able to manipulate the Netherfire Power to this extent was absolutely a pinnacle existence, something even the Evil God himself could not do.

In fact, even with the ability to manipulate the Netherfire Power, Zhou Chu could not condense it into shape.

All of this was merely deliberately staged to scare the evil demon before him.

To put on this act, Zhou Chu had also paid a price.

That was that at this moment, in his mind, the roars of the Goddess of Nature rang out one after another.

"Zhou Chu, this goddess is about to reach her limit! Do you know what kind of evil thing this Netherfire is? Do you know that doing this goes against the natural laws of the world?"

"Are you trying to mess with me on purpose, you brat? What is your intention in wanting to consume this goddess's Divine Power!"

In order not to let the trickery of the Netherfire be exposed too early, he could only continuously appease the exceptionally irritable Goddess of Nature: "Goddess, please hold on a little longer, just hold on for three more seconds, please, I beg you!"

Actually, Zhou Chu had always thought that the Goddess of Nature's dormant period would last another two days; he did not expect her to wake up early.

Thus, after she explained the Netherfire through the Goddess of Nature, he learned that this Netherfire was not an ordinary fire element, but was condensed from the evil power within the bodies of nether demons, and finally swallowed by the Evil God to become the ability he was most proud of.

Therefore, Netherfire was not within her scope of control.

But even so, as a deity, she could still make this evil thing condense into the shape Zhou Chu wanted.

It was just that this consumed far more of the Divine Power in her body than refining Soul Crystals.

After holding on for three seconds, the Goddess of Nature finally could not hold on any longer, and with a scream, she gave up the condensation and entered a deep slumber.

In fact, all of this was Zhou Chu's deliberate arrangement.

After successfully obtaining the Netherfire Core, the next step was to go to the God-Fallen Land to retrieve the other two materials.

For this reason, the Goddess of Nature had just fully charged the key to the God-Fallen Land with Divine Power, and now, due to the consumption from condensing the Netherfire, her slumber time would only be longer, not shorter.

Seeing the cage in Zhou Chu's palm suddenly disappear, Malgani's originally distracted eyes were shaken.

Zhou Chu's series of operations had indeed caused Malgani's soul to linger in the ocean of Netherfire for too long.

If Malgani did not withdraw immediately now, even if he were not burned to death by the Netherfire, he would definitely be tainted with an irremovable Netherfire poison.

Therefore, he could not care who this human before him was, and immediately prepared to flee.

"Father, this guy is trying to run!"

At this moment, Li Er's figure appeared behind him.

Upon hearing this, Zhou Chu did not hesitate to cast his Life Soul Artifact from his back toward Malgani.

There was still one chance for a forced contract today; it could not be wasted just like that.

Seeing the Dead Man's Coffin cast by Zhou Chu open its mouth toward him, with a powerful suction force crazily tearing at his soul body, Malgani could not help but be startled, his soul power operating crazily as he tried to speed up his escape.

However, the Life Soul Artifact was like a ghost, actually catching up quickly, emitting a powerful suction force, and continuing to pull at Malgani's soul.

This terrified Malgani; in his desperation, he actually abandoned a portion of his soul power, which greatly reduced the pulling force of the Life Soul Artifact on him.

In the end, most of his soul turned into a point of light, streaking across the pitch-black sky like a meteor, flying rapidly toward Purgatory City.

And the Life Soul Artifact only absorbed the sliver of soul that this evil demon had left behind.

The Life Soul Artifact returned to behind Zhou Chu.

Zhou Chu's gaze looked into the Emperor Tomb, only to find that in one Emperor Tomb, that wisp of Malgani's soul consciousness was constantly hitting the transparent barrier, trying to break free from its restraints.

At the same time, a line of green text appeared on the Emperor Tomb.

【Cannot be reshaped, can be condensed! (Estimated condensation time: 48 hours)!】

Zhou Chu could not help but frown slightly.

He did not know what this condensation meant.
