Chapter 044 - Demon God's Earthly Palace

 The stone slab was reopened, revealing a dark passageway, a wisp of black aura escaped from the passageway, and everyone revealed a hint of nervousness and excitement.

  Lu Fei was a bit surprised and said, "Strange, there was no black aura inside the passage when the stone slab was moved!"

  Bot Auror said, "This is not strange, the stone slabs were moved away before they caused the dark power to leak out, it probably took a process, your three servants were invaded by this aura before their wills were eroded!"

  Knight Commander Lei Kai took a step forward and drew the longsword at his waist, signaling the others to step back while he pointed his longsword towards the dark passageway. Lu Fei was slightly curious, this Knight Commander looked as if he was going to cast some divine spell to dispel the darkness, first of all dispelling the breath was something that must be done, because the breath of these dark forces would be harmful once inhaled. How else would a person enter them, they couldn't always wear a gas mask, and there weren't always gas masks in the Terran Continent, "Ha - Thunder Wave Light!"

  Knight Commander Lei Kai fiercely shouted, his longsword pointed towards the dark passage, a dazzling thunder lightning shot out from the longsword, and in a flash it crossed the void and ran straight through to the depths of the passage, and all the way through, the light illuminated the entire passage.

  Lu Fei felt the blazing and harshness of the thunder light and couldn't help but be a little surprised, so it turned out that Knight Commander Lei Kai was a Thunder God Knight who focused on the power of thunder.

  Lu Fei had long opened his Arcane Eye, which could see through the nearby darkness, only to see that the waves of thunder light were incomparably overpowering, and wherever they passed by, the black aura was immediately scorched, and were disintegrated and dispersed, and the entire passage was filled with a fiery masculine burning smell.

  Lei Kai Knight Commander a divine art dispersed the darkness that permeated the channel, of course the first one to jump into the channel, long sword raised, the body of the sword issued a Yang and electric light to, at once illuminated the surrounding.

  Everyone in turn jumped into the channel, looking around, knights have drawn their swords, Bot Arcanist also holding a staff, cast a light spell for everyone, at once everyone's body emitted a bright light to, the light illuminates the channel around. The passage was four-square, four meters wide and five meters high, with stone walls on all sides, obviously constructed by man.

  Every dozen meters, there will be downward turning stone steps, Lu Fei has been observing, until after two hours of walking, estimated to have exceeded the underground thousands of meters, a black gate blocked in front of the crowd.

  The gate was eleven or twelve meters high and ten meters wide, using incredibly thick and heavy black iron cast and refined, the gate was painted with the totem of a bear-riding Demon God holding a poisonous snake, aesthetically pleasing and hideous, the gap in the middle of the gate was cracked, snorting darkness, and the scent was dispersed by the sweeping thunder divine power of Lei Kai's longsword.

  The Bot Auror saw the relief on the door and immediately frowned, "This is Bushong's dungeon!"

  Reinhardt was startled and tilted his head to look at the totem on the door with fear and excitement, such a look made Lu Fei even more puzzled, "Your Highness Reinhardt, is this Bushong a demon?"

  The crowd was silent, the atmosphere was a bit heavy, Reinhardt glanced at Lu Fei and said, "It can also be said that it is a demon, because the people in the surface world can't distinguish between a demon and a devil god, so they all call them demons, in fact, Bushong isn't a demon, he's a Devil God, according to the oldest historical biographies, at the end of the First Era Divine Race Era, some of the Gods degenerated into the Underground World and became Demon God. There are as many as nearly a hundred Demon Gods that can be recorded in writing, and those that are not recorded are unknown ..."

  Lei Kai said in a deep voice, "The Demon Gods created all sorts of demons and devils in the underground world, and once set up the legendary twelve-rank Demon God Pillar, with the upper four ranks being the emperors, the grand dukes, the cabinet ministers, and the generals, which are themselves."

  "Below the upper four orders are all their creations, including monarchs, dukes, marquises, and commanders of the middle four orders, and princes, counts, demons, and demonic messengers of the lower four orders. Bushong's rank is monarch, the monarch of the underground world, he commands 22 legions and is known as the immortal Demon God!"

  "Monarch rank, that's just a created race of Demon God, how can it be considered a true Demon God?" Lu Fei said.

  Knight Commander Lei Kai shook his head and said, "Your Excellency Lu Fei, don't underestimate the Monarch Rank, the legend says that the Demon God of the Upper Fourth Rank possesses a power comparable to or even surpassing that of a God, where the names of the Demon Gods of the Upper Fourth Rank transcend the Laws, and can't be written in any words or pronounced in any syllables, and no one knows of their existence, let alone has seen it, so the Monarch Rank is the most formidable existence we know of, and it is said that they have infinitely approached the true Demon God, and that they can be considered as a real Demon God. They are said to be infinitely close to the true Demon Gods, and the Demon Gods people speak of actually refer to these Monarchs!"

  "Where is this knowledge recorded? I've been to the Mage Guild's library quite a few times, but I haven't found any records of the Demon Gods of the Underground World ...," Lu Fei asked in confusion.

  Reinhardt said, "You won't be able to find it, because all the books and items that can cause panic have all been permanently sealed!"

  "Then how do you guys know about it?"

  Everyone looked at Reinhardt in unison, and this Crown Prince then shook his head, spread his hands and confessed, "Well, well, this knowledge comes from our Medusa Family, you should know that, right? Our Medusa Family is a family with an ancient inheritance, and it's not surprising that there are some ancient records that other people don't know about!"

  Reinhardt gave special instructions to Lu Fei, "It's good that you know about these things, don't ever say anything about it, if it causes panic, the Mage Guild as well as all the various pantheon forces across the continent will come after you!"

  "I know!" Lu Fei hurriedly promised not to say anything.

  Reinhardt observed the gate for a while, always hesitating in his heart, and everyone kept quiet, not daring to urge the young Crown Prince.

  After a long time, Reinhardt, with a frustrated face, said to Lu Fei, "A Monarch Rank Demon God's underground palace is not trivial, it's better for you to decide whether to open it or not, after all, this piece of land is your territory, however, I still have to remind you that behind this gate might just be an underground palace that worships a Demon God, and it might still be just a ruin, but there is a chance that it could be a gate that leads to the endless abyss of the underground world! "

  "It can't be, can it?" Lu Fei's palms were slightly sweaty, after thinking about it for a while, he gritted his teeth and said, "It's better to open it, for the unknown, people are always curious and fearful, if we go back like this today, we will undoubtedly be overcome by fear, I'd like to see where behind the gate is, even if it's really an abyss, I'll still have to take a look at it before I close the gate and retreat back!"

  Reinhardt nodded and looked at his own elite men, saying, "You have no objections, right?"

  "Wherever Your Highness goes, we will go!" The Divine Knights firmly said, divine power emanating from their bodies, illuminating the gate with great light.

  "Haha, good, Steck, you're strong, you push open this gate!" Reinhardt signaled one of the divine Knights to come over and push the gate.

  "Yes, Your Highness!" A handsome young blonde-haired divine Knight walked out, came to the door, pressed both hands on the door, condensed his divine power and roared, and propped his feet at the same time.

  Rumble!

  The entire ground shook, and a majestic and incomparably huge force immediately surged out from his body, pouring into his entire body, and on this Divine Knight's body, a milky yellow bright divine light immediately surged out.

  Lu Fei was slightly startled by the unexplained shaking, just now this time, Lu Fei felt a huge power, just like a big prehistoric dinosaur running up making the ground shake.

  "What a great power!" Lu Fei was slightly surprised.

  Reinhardt laughed, "That's for sure, Steck is an Earth God Knight, focusing on the power of the earth and possessing the 'Earth Upside Down' divine art."

  "Ah ah ah ah ah ..."

  Sterk's divine art was unleashed in full force, with a power of more than ten thousand pounds. The gate slightly trembled, creaking, some dust and debris from the rocks around the door rustling fall, Steck hands pressed the place, has been slightly sunken in, dull, heavy sound came, the crowd's heart did not have any reason to tighten, and, sure enough, the door was finally slowly pushed open ...

  "Ah ..." Steck roared, adding more force, both hands pushed, violently pushed the door completely open, Bot Arcanist had already waved his staff to cast a light spell, a light balloon as big as a balloon immediately soared up, hanging above the heads of the crowd, illuminating the surroundings.

  The gate was pushed open, as if a hidden world was opened with it!

  Rivers of blazing lava ran across, countless neatly constructed fences and stone bridges connecting pieces of cracked rocky ground, and this was the world that was reflected in the eyes of the crowd.

  Wooooooooooooooooo...

  A horror like the sound of night lords whistled over the world of lava, a head revealing a skull and bones, the lower body of the evil spirit of vaporization flew around, scorching air and a strong smell of sulfur came to the face, Lu Fei could not help but be shocked to see such a situation, in front of him this is the scene of a purgatory.

  "Is this ... this purgatory?" Lu Fei was shocked.

  Bot Arcanist shook his head, "How can it be a purgatory, the breath of purgatory can make people fatal, there is a dark world under the ground, and it is the abyss and purgatory that is under the dark world. If I guessed correctly, this is just an underground crack space, which is only a hundred miles in size, and the magma is also ordinary lava, not Purgatory Molten Fire!"

  "Then these evil spirits ..."

  "Since it's Bushong's underground palace, there should be Bushong's altar in here, you should know that the altar is able to gather the energy of the Demon God, and over time, the Demon God's aura will give rise to evil spirits on its own!" Botte laughed, and the man breathed a sigh of relief.

  Reinhardt excitedly said, "Finally, we haven't come in vain, let's advance, I want to dispel all the evil aura of this space!"

  "As your highness wishes!" Lei Kai and the others agreed with a roar, and the eleven Divine Knights rushed into a dense group of Evil Spirits' area, wielding their long swords, and one powerful and magnificent Divine Technique was cast, which dazzled and invigorated Lu Fei.

  In Lu Fei's opinion, Evil Spirits were usually very weird and scary things, but that was not the case at all now, the power of the God Knights completely subverted Lu Fei's perception.

  [Thunder Shock]

  [Earth Aura]

  [Chaotic Sword Storm]

  [Bloodthirsty Shock]

  The Evil Spirits were down on their bloody luck, and the Divine Knights were like tigers, wolves, lions and leopards that had broken into the sheepfold and began to go on a killing spree ...
