Chapter 263 - The First Realm of Hell
Chapter 263 - The First Realm of Hell
As battles concluded in some worlds, new ones began in others.
Noah watched the numerous figures of beings from other worlds as they traversed through the roadway constructed in space and entered the flaming gateway in front of them.
His gaze only lingered briefly on the party of Celestial Disciples as he moved forward himself with great expectations. They would all be thrown in different locations after they passed through the gateway, so only the future would show exactly who he will be lucky enough to come across. Property © NôvelDrama.Org.
He observed the humongous gateway, as well the numerous number of sh.i.p.s all around it before he let out a deep breath and disappeared into the doorway leading to the First Realm of Hell.
FLASH!
Only slight disorientation and adjustment occurred before he found himself in an entirely new area. Looking around, the entire space held a hue of orange shade as all around him, wisps of flames continuously burned.
Below him was reddened rocks that expressed the one major thing about this world- it was extremely hot!
There were dense orange-red clouds far above in the horizon that obscured one’s view to look any further, as the tongues of flames all around seemed to be dancing and trying to land on anybody that was near.
The landscape was jagged and uneven, and he could even see the outlines of wide mountains and valleys in the distance, along with something else he was coming across for the first time.
GRRRR
All around him, numerous growls could be heard as in the few seconds that he had entered into the First Realm of Hell, he was already surrounded by numerous Infernals.
He looked curiously at the outlines of these new beings as he used one particular summoning skill that he had longingly upgraded all the way from Mythical ever since he turned back time three weeks ago.
The Infernals in front of him had an outline similar to reptilians, but their bodies stood on two legs which had flaming hoofs at the end of each of them. Serrated tails that controlled the flames in the surroundings were even more prominent as they moved closer to him, his eyes clearly making out their sharpened clawed hands and jagged teeth that were dripping with bloodl.u.s.t.
Their heads were surprisingly similar to that of dragons, with crimson horns erupting from either side of their foreheads as they circled around Noah, seemingly testing his power before they voraciously jumped towards him.
The numbers simply surrounding him had reached thousands as each of their bodies let out levels of power no less than Mythical, with an abundant amount of Phantasmal and a few Transcendent Infernals standing further back.
The skill that Noah had cast finally came to life as golden-green runic circles released a terrifying being that let out powerful waves of power, causing a few of the infernals to pull back.
The being was wrapped around in a dark cloak that hid an extremely peculiar figure within. One could distinctly see if they were close that the figure hidden in the dark robe was a skeleton that was fully colored green. The bones of this skeleton were inlaid beautifully with golden runic inscriptions throughout as from its bony hands, a dark green staff that held a golden skull at the top glowed menacingly with a green light.
Its aura powerfully made itself apparent as it was used by its master for the first time in what felt like forever.
From its beginnings as a Rank S [Summon Virulent Abomination], all the way to the Mythical [Summon Death Lord], and now standing stably at SAINT+ after more than three months altogether in the Time Space of the Spiritual Land, the first-ever summon was now under the name of [Lich Lord of Abomination]
[Lich Lord of Abomination] :: A skill that is unique in the universe, with its synthesis being something that only a single being can duplicate. It summons a Lich holding immense essence in its bones, a Lich that is proficient in poisons, healing, and summoning deadly forces of death. Its current abilities include Summon Poison Totem, Summon Undead, Noxious Outburst, and Dereliction of the Saintly Poison Lord.
He knew the effectiveness of a summoning skill in the past, and knew its power would be just as immense when it reached the same rank he was in now! One of his projects with the time spent in the Spiritual Land was the maxing of proficiency of many skills that were complementary to [Summon Death Lord] as he raised the rank of his first summon all the way to SAINT+. Its skeletal structure towered in size, being more than five meters as it raised the golden-green staff towards the rushing Infernals who could not hold back their bloodl.u.s.t anymore.
[Summon Poison Totem]
OONG!
Essence rumbled as from the skies, a huge green-gold structure of a prominently large totem holding inscriptions of laughing and baleful skeletons struck into the ground, destroying those nearby as it stably took root.
SHAA! SHAA! SHAA!
An eerie sound that was similar to that of rapid waves of the ocean rang out and all around the Totem, waves of cloudy milky green lights erupted out as far as 10 meters, fully covering all the Infernals nearby as a horrendous sight occurred.
Any infernals covered by this poisonous cloud released from the Poison Totem found their bodies melting right away, with those who were powerful enough to withstand it with their lives barely hanging on despairing when yet another wave of poisonous cloud released from the Poison Totem,
SHAA! SHAA! SHAA!
The waves of poisonous clouds continued to be released from the totem as in its surrounding 10 meters, everything had melted down to a mess of bloodied goo as it continued to release its waves of poison nonetheless.
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!
Poison Totems similar to this were summoned by the Lich Lord of Abomination as they struck down in multiple areas where clouds of infernals were present, causing a terrifying sight to replay as everything melted from clouds of poisons.
OOOOH!
The more powerful Infernals watching from the back roared in anger as they moved in, maneuvering around the Poison Totems still continuously releasing poisonous waves as they made a beeline for the large hooded green-gold skeleton and Noah. Multiple Transcendent Rank Infernals, as well as two Saint Ranked Infernals, had appeared in the surroundings.
The Lich’s eyes shone a green light as the skeleton atop its staff shone a golden light, its immense energies casting yet another skill as Noah watched the abilities play out with a wide smile on his face.
[Summon Undead] was cast as shining green lights began to appear in droves all around them. The green lights seemed to be multiplying at a rapid pace, increasing exponentially as an aura of death began to spread out all around them.
OOOH!
Encompassing screams resounded as in the vicinity of Noah and the Lich Lord of Abomination, thousands of powerful Undead had appeared. Numerous Skeleton Warriors wielding poisonous jagged blades, Dullahans releasing poisonous smoke, immensely large Ghouls and Zombies, as well as...a humongous sized Bone Dragon that whipped its skeletal head towards the oncoming Infernals...and let out a poisonous Dragon’s Breath.
VOOM
A gory scene of melted Transcendent Rank Infernals played out as a fiery light erupted from the Saint Ranked Infernals, a barrier of flames surrounding them that fully protected them from the poisonous breath.
They pulled back briefly as they pulled in their bloodl.u.s.t and observed the beings in front of them yet again.
Around the human and Lich, droves of powerful Undead were screeching at the Infernals as the Bone Dragon began the charge, and thousands of the undead spreading out towards the Infernals swarming around them.
RUMBLE!
"Haha!"
Noah could not help but laugh at this sight, recalling how he loved summons so much with the ease they brought. Watching a pet that he called out move across the battle field as they reaped havoc and chaos had always had its own charm, and he was reminded of it yet again right now. He was about to move forward and put in some work himself when he felt a reddish form of energy come from the dead Infernals all around him and enter his body.
"Hmm?"
...
[Error.]
[Oh?]
[Now what is this?]
He stopped as he heard the messages from the Planetary Core of his homeworld, with the core of the Beast World and Demon World chiming in soon after as they came across something new!
Memories about the Infernals reappeared in his mind as he recalled the words of Elder Baldwin and Elder Spacewarp about how these beings were diametrically opposed to them, with their bodies releasing unique energy which directly helped improve the cultivation and comprehension speed of those that defeated them. The same applied to the Infernals, where anytime they defeated any of them, their ranks and power would climb that much faster!
So why exactly had this unique form of essence caught the attention of the Planetary Systems?
