Chapter 2408 - 506: Reunion in a Foreign Land, Eighteen Layers of Hell Plan!
Chapter 2408: Chapter 506: Reunion in a Foreign Land, Eighteen Layers of Hell Plan!
Half of the Seventy-Two Pillars have their own agent forces or devil tribes, or Undead forces, in the eighth level.
In essence, the structure of Hell is similar to the wizard civilization, as due to certain special reasons, strongmen above level 9 cannot casually descend, and can only acquire resources in this way.
Behind the Demon Elephant Tribe is the [Sky Supporting Giant Elephant], and the Demon Fox Tribe has the [Master of the Demon Fox]. However, these two are not among the front ranks in the Seventy-Two Pillars, so the Demon Fox Tribe and the Ghost Elephant Department can only mingle on the seventh level.
In recent years, under the secret patronage of Levi and the Purgatory Demon Sword, the two major tribes have grown stronger, acquired more resources, and slightly increased offerings to their ancestors. The remainder flows into Levi’s hands.
In the early days of wizard civilization, Hell as a dark force oppressed this emerging civilization greatly, Levi’s actions can be seen as bringing glory to wizards, a meritorious act.
Of course, the rise of new powers inevitably shakes the cake of old forces. Along the way, the Purgatory Demon Sword has encountered numerous challenges, which are not for outsiders to know.
Council Hall.
After listening to his second brother recount hardships, Levi praised and affirmed his diligent work over the years, yet he also gave prepared oddities and spell knowledge as a reward.
"Thank you, big brother."
The Purgatory Demon Sword accepted his brother’s gesture, and the Demon Fox Main Mother refilled a cup of hot tea for his brother.
"Although the forces on the eighth level are intricate, as long as we don’t provoke the five major top tribes, with our strength, we can still get by."
Hell’s Seventy-Two Pillars, the top seven are all level 10 strongmen, yet the first pillar [King of Hell] and the second pillar [Radiant Prison Dragon King Bah] have no forces, thus it’s six major tribes.
The remaining [Revenge Eye·Delus], [Nubios, Lord of the Underworld Hounds], [Fertile Sheep Mother·Knumlit], [Beast Lord·Bimong], [Death Knight·Yalon] have agent forces in the eighth level.
Among them, [Death Knight] is unique—it’s the only Undead enlightened one among the seven pillars; others are demons or innately powerful mythical creatures.
It’s said that the Death Knight rides upon a Legendary [Purgatory Heavenly Horse], wherever it passes, death follows like pursuing shadows, all beings retreat.
"By the way, big brother, I found out about Mr. Lost Heart whom you asked me to inquire about, he is a friend of the [Death Knight], supposedly a lich of Grand Wizard level hiding in Hell, sheltering many homeless Undead. Though the devils disdain it, they dare not provoke."
He should be an agent planted by the Wizard Council in Hell to facilitate communication with Hell’s high levels, whereas you are an individual of interest to the Wizard Council, thus wanting to communicate with you."
Levi nodded.
"I see."
After reaching the ninth-circle, it might be possible to visit once or twice, for now, forget it.
The temperament of liches is unstable; some wizards become liches only to become "Crazy Liches," and he doesn’t trust a lich’s character.
Before departing, Levi looked at the Demon Fox Main Mother and the three sisters, as well as the Ghost Elephant Master.
"You have taken care of my second brother tirelessly over the years; once my brother’s grand wish is fulfilled, your two tribes will surely benefit."
The Demon Fox Main Mother laughed:
"Thank you, Master... actually, we also enjoy it, the Master of the Demon Fox is also very satisfied with my work over the years, and rewarded me with some benefits, within a century, I can advance to level 8 mid-stage."
The three sisters thanked Levi for his blank check; their strength is also slowly improving, not completely stagnant.
As for the Ghost Elephant Master, its cultivation wasn’t delayed, and now it’s at level 8 mid-stage strength.
The Demon Elephant Tribe is an ally of the Demon Fox Tribe, but such benefits as the stove isn’t likely to fall upon them.
Levi took 20 billion joss paper from his second brother’s side, and more than 40 soul stones, other materials are also abundant, no need for more words.
...
The Nether River rolls on.
On a mast sailboat, Di Gao arrived as promised.
Costing 12 billion joss paper, Levi also secured a pound of [Dead Soil].
Afterward, he bought some local specialties from Hell or Netherworld. Finally, he took 100,000 blind boxes, happily ending the procurement.
Levi sat down cross-legged beside Di Gao.
"Thanks."
"You’re welcome, just fair trade... by the way, the next Netherworld Market is a millennial grand market, there surely will be legendary-level treasures coming out, make sure you prepare plenty of money then."
Di Gao casually hinted to Levi.
"May I ask, what are they?"
Di Gao: "Items for extending lifespan."
Levi’s heart was stirred.
"Legendary-level items that extend lifespan, placed on par with the Turtle King Fruit. Given the current financial power of the Demon Fox Tribe and Ghost Elephant Department, attempting to win them seems unlikely, as they still need to tribute to the Seventy-Two Pillars; otherwise, suspicion might arise from above... never mind, let fate decide, anyway, my lifespan is sufficient, and Hundred Flowers is not a problem either."
Such treasures would surely cause Grand Wizards, even Legendary Wizards in the Wizard World to exchange Glorious Sun-Grade oddities for them, creating a stir.
Chatting with Di Gao until the Netherworld Market ended, their conversation ranged far and wide, truly feeling like genuine good friends.
Watching the mast sail away, Levi departed from Hell, looking forward to the next Netherworld Market.
...
Dark Ancient Tower.
Fifth Level.
Once the Wind Spirit Tower, it has now developed into the largest spell caster academy among Humans.
The four major factions of Earth, Fire, Wind, and Water each birthed a Supreme Archmage, presiding over operations, guarding Humans.
Levi, imitating experiences in the seventh level, vigorously promoted wizard or path of knights among Humans, achieving considerable results.
Even without Levi’s shelter, humans on the fifth level now have self-defense capabilities against black beasts or alien races, ending a history of darkness.
The Supreme Archmages, seeing Levi’s arrival, appeared joyous, and after reporting their work, nervously asked:
"Heavenly Venerate, how is Kidman’s situation outside?"
Levi said:
"He’s currently at level 6 peak, with good luck, he might step into level 7."
He showed Kidman’s recorded projection to them, making those Supreme Archmages envious.
"You guys work hard; if within your lifetimes you reach late stage level 6, I can take you out and show you a broader world."
Originally, those Supreme Archmages were a bit uneasy; now they were completely relieved.
In the past century, he didn’t find Children of the Elements, thus taking 8 individuals with special talents and double affinity to proceed to the seventh level.
The sixth level has few Humans, exceptionally dispersed, without forming systematic spellcasting organizations, making spreading teachings exceedingly challenging, and given the urgency of time, Levi temporarily dismissed it.
