Journey to the Netherworld

After transferring this large mass of Earth Element Sovereign Power into his Spatial Ring, Roy's original three hundred drops of Earth Element Sovereign Power instantly merged with it, becoming an even larger mass of Sovereign Power.

With a thought from Roy, his Spiritual Sense instantly pulled a single drop of Sovereign Power out of the large mass.

After trying it a few times and discovering that there was no difference in use between Sovereign Power gathered together and Sovereign Power separated into individual drops, Roy stopped paying attention to it.

All the elders possessed Sovereign Power. Basically, the elders sent out would be able to complete their missions successfully.

Even if a rare few encountered a particularly cautious Seven-star Demon who concealed their strength, with enough Sovereign Power, victory was not impossible.

"Elder Roy."

After returning to his castle, Roy was surprised to see an old acquaintance there once again.

"Miss Shelley? It has been a long time."

"Yes. More than a hundred thousand years have passed in the blink of an eye."

Seeing that Roy was still polite toward her, Shelley relaxed inwardly.

"By the way, Elder Roy, have you found any Six-star Devil Elders you favor for this mission?"

"Miss Shelley overestimates me. I am not good at socializing and do not know any Six-star Devil Elders. Since Miss Shelley asks this, could it be that...?"

"Yes. I know several clansmen, and after discussing it, we would like to join your command, Elder Roy, and complete this family mission together."

After speaking, Shelley pursed her lips.

No one was a fool. Following a powerful elder would increase the safety of the mission severalfold.

Although Elder Roy had only joined the Four Divine Beast Family recently, his strength could not be underestimated.

To date, if there had not been a thousand people who had fought Elder Roy in the arena, there had at least been eight hundred. Yet no one had ever won.

The elders who had fought Roy all openly stated that his strength was enough to rival the family's strongest Seven-star Demons.

If Shelley had not had some connection with Roy, Six-star Demons like them would not have been qualified to join Elder Roy's command.

"Haha, Miss Shelley has truly saved me a great deal of trouble."

After hearing Shelley's words, Roy smiled. "I do not know many people in the Four Divine Beast Family. It would be wonderful to have Miss Shelley's help."

"Phew..."

Having received Roy's confirmation, Shelley also breathed a sigh of relief.

"Oh, right, Miss Shelley. As for those ten thousand family members, gather them together as well if it is convenient. Once your side is ready, we will depart."

"Yes, Elder Roy."

Since she had joined Roy's command, Shelley naturally referred to herself as a subordinate. After bidding Roy farewell, she hurried off to share the good news with several friends and began gathering the ten thousand clansmen who wished to follow Elder Roy with them.

Whoosh...

Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh...

Whoosh, whoosh...

Metal Lives flew out from Azure Mansion one after another, heading toward Planar Teleportation Arrays throughout Hell.

Perhaps because they were excited, or perhaps because they had been stifled by remaining on the Blood Peak Continent for too long, some Four Divine Beast Family members even used Sovereign Power, causing the Metal Lives they piloted to emit the radiance of leaking Sovereign Power.

The speed of a Metal Life was related to its grade. Even if a High-level God piloted a low-grade Metal Life, it would not be any faster than when piloted by a Low-level God.

Thus, using Sovereign Power to pilot Metal Lives was purely wasteful.

But who could blame them for having so much Sovereign Power?

Thus, after the first Metal Life glowing with yellow light rose into the sky, more and more clansmen began using Sovereign Power. For a time, the sky was filled with Metal Lives shrouded in faint cyan, blue, red, and yellow light, leaving behind dazzling trails.

"Elder Roy."

When Roy brought Chris to Azure Mansion, Shelley had already gathered all ten thousand clansmen.

"Ivan greets Elder Roy."

"Timothy greets Elder Roy."

"Branny greets Elder Roy."

Standing beside Shelley were two women and one man.

They were the Six-star Devil Elders who would follow Roy on this mission.

Among them, Shelley was from the Vermillion Bird Clan, Timothy was from the Black Tortoise Clan, while Branny and Ivan, like Roy, were elders with surnames outside the Four Divine Beast Family.

"Mm. Since everyone is ready, let us not waste any time. We depart at once!"

"Yes, Elder Roy."

After the group boarded the Metal Life, fiery red light emerged from Shelley's body, and her aura rose sharply.

Fire Element Sovereign Power!

Roy was somewhat surprised by this.

However, he said nothing.

It was her own Sovereign Power. She could use it however she wished.

Whoosh!

Carrying more than ten thousand people, the Metal Life rose from Azure Mansion and flew beyond the Blood Peak Continent.

"Elder Roy, where is our destination this time?"

"The Netherworld."

Roy answered Shelley's question.

Like Hell, the Netherworld was a Supreme Plane.

The difference was that Hell had been created by the Destruction Supreme God, while the Netherworld had been created by the Death Supreme God.

Roy had his own reasons for going to the Netherworld.

First, his parents in this life had never reached the Saint Domain and had died when Roy was a little over a hundred years old.

According to what Roy knew, after death, all beings below the god level whose souls had not been destroyed would enter the "Netherworld Realm" within the Netherworld.

Roy wanted to wait until he had completely fused five Profound Mysteries of Laws, then venture into Netherworld Mountain and see whether he could ask the Death Sovereign to check if his parents in this life were still there.

Second, Netherworld Mountain in the Netherworld contained the "Netherworld Fruit." As long as one consumed this fruit, one could smoothly fuse five Profound Mysteries of Laws and become an expert at the level of an Asura Prefect.

Although Roy himself had no use for it, if his parents in this life were still alive, he wanted to obtain one for each of them so they would have some ability to protect themselves.

The Four Divine Beast Family's major actions soon spread far and wide.

Many people witnessed the sight of countless Metal Lives streaking across the sky.

What followed caught even more people completely off guard.

The first to suffer was Hell.

As the Metal Lives piloted by the Four Divine Beast Family spread out, the City Lords of more and more cities were challenged.

Large groups of Seven-star Demons and Six-star Demons wielding Sovereign Power defeated the original City Lords, dealing a severe blow to the local forces of many Great Cities and Middle Cities.

Although those forces quickly organized a counterattack, with every member of the Four Divine Beast Family possessing Sovereign Power, their actions merely became stepping stones that enhanced the Four Divine Beast Family's prestige.
