Chapter 40: The Land of the Lightless
In the hinterland of hell, there is still a chaotic division of the heroes. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
The Demon Clan, as the strongest clan in the Hundred Desolations Realm, has a heritage that makes all races feared. And the hinterland is where the whole hell is located.
The hinterland is also known as the nine-layer demon hell, from the first layer to the ninth layer, each layer has countless demon lords sitting in the town, and above them, and the further down, the territory of the demon hell is brighter, the more lords, the stronger the strength, in the last three layers, the dominant side is no longer called the lord, but the hell monarch, the king-level existence among the demons.
Lei Chuan had previously entered the first layer of the Demon Prison, the Bloody Plains, which was one of the birthplaces of the "Demon Stream" that flowed throughout the hinterland. In the center of the plain is a vast sea of blood, extending out a dense network of rivers that envelop the entire plain, and extend along the passage to the second level, the "Lightless Land" ten times the area of the first layer, and continue to extend downward until the bottom of the "Demon Throne".
The location of the Abyss Cage continues to go deeper in the ninth layer, which the demons call "the tenth layer of nothingness".
The area of the "Bloody Plains" is roughly equivalent to a large wasteland, which is a collection of thirty-five wildernesses. Such a vast territory was cut into more than fifty parts, and the supreme ruler was the Demon Lord.
There is no Hell Monarch on this floor, and Lei Chuan can do it boldly with confidence.
Since the last Abyss invasion, two demon lords have been severely injured in battle, and one of them eventually died, causing a small riot in order to divide its territory, while the other lord took the initiative to close the territory after being seriously injured, so that the other lords had no chance to take advantage of it.
Now, the Abyssal Legions have long since receded, the storm has subsided, and the Bloody Plains have returned to their chaotic calm.
Lei Chuan walked around and found that there was no chance to take advantage of it.
Killing a Demon Lord was much harder than he had ever imagined. Even the weakest lord has eight demon generals under his command, each of which is equivalent to the level of Luo Ji and Callenon, and there are countless demon legions and elite demon legions that are always guarding him.
Lei Chuan had infiltrated the city where the lord was located, but he could not continue to infiltrate at the outskirts of the palace, and God knows how five of the eight demon generals could sit in the palace. Helpless, Lei Chuan could only leave in a huff.
In a huge bloody plain, there is no suitable target to start!
In desperation, Lei Chuan decided to go deep into the second layer, which was ten times the area of the "Bloody Plains" and the "Lightless Land". There, there are hundreds of demon lords who have divided one side and fought against each other, and the degree of chaos far exceeds that of the "Bloody Plains". I believe that there, there are many opportunities to start.
There are a total of three passages to the next level, and one of them is to dive into the Sea of Blood, which leads to the Sunset River in the "Sea of Lightless", one of the branches of the "Demon Stream".
This is the safest road, and the other two are in the hands of the two most powerful lords of the first layer, and the tolls to pay are astronomical. The dangers of being in the sea of blood pale in comparison.
The Sea of Blood is the source of the Demon Current, a vast ocean that spans millions of miles, and the bright red waters emit a disgusting smell of blood. There is a group of huge blood sea beasts living in the sea, so strong that even the lord does not dare to provoke them easily, but in comparison, their intelligence is only at the level of monsters, relying on instinct to act.
Lei Chuan dived into the sea of blood with a disgusted face.
The first feeling is, it's so hot! The second feeling is, it stinks!
The boiling heat of the sea of blood is comparable to magma, enough to burn a person to ashes. It is conceivable how terrifying the creatures that live here must be, and the lowest level should also have high-level fire resistance.
Only in the shallow sea layer, Lei Chuan encountered more than 20 blood sea beasts in his sneaking, each of them looked strange, the thinnest was thousands of meters long, and the largest was even comparable to an island.
Lei Chuan sensed the terrifying aura emanating from them and immediately avoided it, not that they couldn't win the battle, after all, the sea of blood was their home field, and once there was a fierce battle, it would inevitably attract more giant beasts, and it would be dangerous at that time.
In the continuous sneaking, Lei Chuan went from the shallow sea to the deep sea, at a depth of thousands of meters, the pressure under him became more and more great, and at a depth of nearly nine thousand meters, it reached hundreds of times that of conventional gravity!
Fortunately, it is still within the affordability range of Lei Chuan.
Until 10,000 meters in the deep sea, after crossing this ruler line, suddenly, the original gravity disappeared and became buoyant, pulling Lei Chuan upward.
Lei Chuan relaxed suddenly, and was pulled by the strong buoyancy to float up, the same 10,000 meters, Lei Chuan rushed out of the sea, and what he saw was another completely different environment.
The lightless land is a place where sunlight cannot reach in the literal sense, and in reality, the second layer of the hell is a vast underground world, obscured by the light of the sun and moon in hell, and there are no fluorescent mushrooms, glowing moss and the like, the whole world is plunged into desperate darkness, and you can't see your fingers.
In the first time, Lei Chuan released a spy satellite and flew out, and at the same time unleashed his mental power to explore everything around him. As a result, at the moment when it was just unfolded, a shadow suddenly rushed over, and the momentum was as strong as if a meteorite was impacting.
The system detects targets, and the combat power level is about 1200.
In an instant, Lei Chuan unfolded the [Spiritual Realm], and the terrifying coercion made the unknown creature tremble on the spot and dare not move.
Five black rays of light emanated from the fingertips, and only a "poof" sound of an object hitting was heard, followed by the sound of a heavy object falling to the ground, and the target's health dropped to zero.
According to the image transmitted by satellite, it is a huge canine monster with three heads, and the flames that envelop its body are gradually extinguished.
Cerberus, a kind of monster with a developed sense of smell, intelligence is not high, and the most powerful individual in the clan can grow up to a five-star low level, overall evaluation: garbage.
Now the value of this level of prey is almost zero to Lei Chuan, and he didn't even bother to touch the corpse, he fled away, and soon, other monsters that smelled blood frantically rushed and devoured the hellhound.
A world without light is not really without light. Every demonic city-state ignites a soul fire, and the blue light guides the wanderers of the wilderness.
The ignition of the soul fire was extremely cruel. Because it is ignited by the souls of countless demons, every 10,000 demon souls can provide a demon city of light for a hundred years.
The demons that ignite the soul fire are from the weak, the rebels, and the captives. There are tens of millions of city-states under the jurisdiction of each demon lord, and the life of the demon cannot lack light, so it can be seen how tragic the battle on the second layer is!
Along the way, Lei Chuan finally saw a ray of blue fire, walked forward, and found that each was a rough giant city, covering an extremely wide area, surrounded by tall city walls, the highest building in the city was a lighthouse, the top of the tower was the ignition position of the soul fire, the flame of the soul burned was extremely shining, and the demonic fire spread out to all sides, covering the whole city, and a layer of demon fire was ignited outside the city wall.
But knowing that he stepped forward, Lei Chuan realized that it was not only himself who was attracted by the light, but also other demons.
A large number of demons surrounded the entire giant city, erected ladders, crashed into cars and attacked the city, and the defenders in the city naturally resisted desperately, and the battle situation was extremely tragic for a while.
Lei Chuan's eyes narrowed slightly, looking at this army that was constantly being used from the darkness, the number was no less than a million, and the number of demon legions was as many as more than ten, led by several demon generals.
And there are also demon generals in the giant city, but the troops under his command are far less than the other party, but with a large number of defensive attacks on the strong city walls, the two sides can't attack for a long time.
Lei Chuan's onlookers only lasted for a moment. In the ensuing chaos, he directly took control of a fire demon who had just climbed the city wall, slaughtering all directions, and then took control of one of the night demons that were fighting with the defenders as the fire demon engaged him.
The blade demon trident wielded, and the night demon stabbed the heart like a fire demon with a blow, and the dark air flow of the whole body agitated, forming a large mouth to swallow the opponent, and when the darkness dissipated, only half of the mutilated corpse was left in place.
With this opportunity, Lei Chuan finally blended into the city, and then, he continued to use this method to continue to penetrate deeper into the city, targeting the demon general who was defending the army, a rare evil-faced spider demon.
