Chapter 364: The World Gate VI
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
This breath…
From afar, the Infernal God set its sights on the Savage Flame Giant. It ignored whatever that was in between, including the Dark Destroyer that was infuriated, Grimm that was covered with black flames, and also the Thousand-eyed Carcinus that had escaped into the world gate.
The breath was familiar and intimate, it was as if…
Suddenly, the Infernal God was struck by a flashback of memories. Stunned, it stood on the ground motionless, as if the scene played before it as if it had just happened yesterday. It also stopped sneering at Dark Destroyer which at that time, was being harassed by a low-level creature.
It was about five hundred years ago in the Infernal Spirit World, the day the opening ceremony of the world gate toward the Burrow World was being held in the Darksmother Kingdom. It was then that the Infernal God had an urge to secretly descend into the Burrow World.
There was a massive slaughter of low-level creatures, which testified to the growth of the race. Reverence could be seen coming from the younger generations.
Everything seemed to be normal. However, nobody knew that the everlasting memories of shame and suffering of the Infernal God had occurred in this enslaved Burrow World!
It was a rare occurrence that had been discovered by the Infernal God after the massive slaughter of the creatures from the Burrow World.
At the same location, the Infernal God was able to utilize the temporary occurrence of the Soul Tide and randomly triggered a connection toward an unknown world that was far away.
It was extremely surprising!
It was extremely exciting!
The Infernal God immediately used the Soul Tide Mirror and discovered an exotic world extremely rich in souls. Ruled by humans, these souls were unbelievably weak.
Utilizing its ability to exchange souls via the mighty power that it possessed, the Infernal God was able to collect a group of human souls from the world and formed a pack of loyal followers for itself.
The Infernal God realized that the world was named the Sorcerer World, a world undiscovered even by the first great Acraepoid King.
What a wonderful world it was.
The rulers of the humans had such exotic souls that could be put to great use. However, none of them were used in Soul Energy. Even the physical strength of their own bodies was unbelievably weak.
This…
This would definitely be the heaven described in mythical tales, a place that was sought after by countless Acraepoids since ancient times.
The ravaging greed of the Infernal God was endless. It would do anything to gather each and every human soul from the Sorcerer World. Once it had enough of them, it would secretly utilize their mighty power to open up the world gate that connected the Sorcerer World.
When that time came…
As long as it conquered the exotic and unbelievable Sorcerer World, it could feast on batches of human souls that were equally exotic and special. This was true even for the First Acraepoid King.
The continuous excitement and evil sneers could be heard as time slowly crept by.
One day, via the Soul Tide Mirror, the Infernal God suddenly discovered an unbelievably fresh and exotic soul within the Sorcerer World.
The soul was flawless and pure while releasing a seductive scent similar to an ocean.
In fact, it was the curse of the ocean that had released the special scent.
It seemed to have come from dead creatures that had spewed curses from their souls in order to attract the attention of other creatures also sensitive toward other souls.
The Infernal God was driven by a strong urge of possession considering it was an extremely rare and special encounter of a soul.
Very quickly, the soul was coerced to enter into a highly honorable Infernal Spirit Contract with the Infernal God. The soul would receive a minimal amount of energy; its cost, the trading of its own soul.
“This makes me feel lonely. I cannot share the excitement, joy, and thrill with others. By the time I have absorbed all of the souls of these weak and foolish humans, and also conquer this Sorcerer World, I will be the god among all others. I shall be undefeated, even among the other gods!”
The Infernal God could not believe the potential for growth that would come after possessing the exotic soul of the human. It was the entire Sorcerer World of countless souls that awaited its collection.
“All these are like visions of a wonderful dream.”
As for the low-level creatures that had signed the contract, they would just need to contribute their easily obtainable Infernal Spirit Power. The reward of that would become a few hundred folds after a waiting period of more than a hundred years.
The Infernal God would gather a huge amount of power to transmit the highly honorable Infernal Spirit Contract via the world mirror. The soul would then belong to it once both parties signed the contract together.
However, the result was…
Poof!
Suddenly, the scenes from the wonderful dream shattered into pieces.
The world mirror, a discovery so precious and rare was broken by such a small amount of physical strength of a tiny creature from the Sorcerer World!
This puny human!
He had broken the world mirror!
He lied to the great Infernal God!
He had destroyed all of the dreams of the great Infernal God!
The world mirror that was formed from the Soul Tide had been destroyed by a tiny creature more insignificant than Acraepoid warriors from the Acraepoid World…
It! Was! Destroyed! He even mocked himself as the “Dumb foreign creature!”
If the anger of Infernal God caused by Grimm’s attack were to be measured in units of tens and was labeled as the anger of God, then the anger of the Infernal God towards Grimm would have already reached 10,000 units!
It was no longer just anger, but a deep-seated hatred that came from the bottom of the heart. It was unforgettable and unforgivable.
“Ah…”
The Infernal God could not forget the moment of shame that was hidden deep within its heart, the heavenly dream of connecting the Sorcerers World, and the promise that was once made to its own.
Its soul must have been trapped inside the filthiest spot of a pig’s stomach to bear all of the sufferings it could imagine, and enjoy all of the torture that would be arranged for him, and let him…
