Information on the Four Supreme Planes
Hell, one of the Four Supreme Planes, is only known to Andres based on the content of the original work.
The present is not from the same era as the original work, so there are bound to be many differences.
"Hell?" Holan looked troubled. "Lord Andres, we live near Iron Saber Gorge, which is just a small corner of Hell. We don't know much about the situation in Hell as a whole."
Iron Saber Gorge?
Upon hearing the name, Andres' eyes lit up instantly.
Iron Saber Gorge is the location of the Plane Teleportation Array of the Blood Peak Continent, and the Skyrite Mountains, where the Four Divine Beasts reside, is also located on the Blood Peak Continent.
"What a coincidence." Andres was also surprised, and at the same time, he was even more eager to know the information that Holan had. He said, "It's alright, tell me as much as you know."
"Yes."
Holan considered his words carefully before speaking again.
"Lord Andres, Hell is incredibly vast, and we don't even know its exact size. We live in a place called Iron Saber Gorge..."
Holan explained in detail, Andres listened attentively. Not only him, but Cilia, Lulutia and the others were also very serious, after all, they did not know anything about Hell and were very curious.
As Holan explained, Andres's brows furrowed. He realized that Holan knew far less than he had imagined.
In the original story, Hell had 108 prefectures, each with its Prefect, Prefecture Soldiers, city lords, and the army of the Sovereign.
According to what Holan knew, Hell currently has no so-called Prefect. Although there are cities, they are not ruled by any lords and are occupied by many forces.
The closest city to Iron Saber Gorge is "Iron Saber Gorge Somuo City," which is tens of millions of miles away. Holan himself has never been there and only knows about the situation there through hearsay.
The force led by Hamid is the strongest within millions of miles of Iron Saber Gorge, and in more distant areas, there are many tribes, families, and other forces that are no weaker than them.
But the farther away they were, the less Holan knew. They didn't usually go to such far places, and their information was very limited.
In short, Holan's understanding of Hell was limited to the area within a radius of over ten million miles around Iron Saber Gorge.
This region is a chaotic place with no order whatsoever, where wild development takes place and families, tribes, bandits, and other forces are as numerous as hairs on a cow, constantly fighting and competing with each other.
Andres shook his head inwardly. This information was no different from the era in the original work and was of no use to him.
"Master, if you want to know more, you still need to go to Somuo City," Dup suggested.
He originally lived in Hell, ten million miles away from Iron Saber Gorge, and as Highgod, he knew more than Holan.
"Oh? How much do you know? Tell me about it," Andres said, his eyes lighting up.
Dup said, "My understanding is similar to that of Holan, but the difference is that I have been to Somuo City. Master, look at this."
Dup took out a thick book from his Space Ring.
Andres opened it and found it was a picture book.
Dup explained, "Master, this is a map covering an area of one hundred million miles around Somuo City. In Hell, maps are the most important thing, because Hell is so vast that you will lose your way without one."
Andres listened to Dup's explanation while looking at the map.
"Master, there are now Four Great Families controlling Somuo City. They are so powerful that no one within a radius of hundreds of millions of miles can rival them. Only they have the ability to draw such a map. It is said that they also have an even larger map that can be used to travel to other cities."
Andres also noticed that the map marked the location of Iron Saber Gorge and Somuo City, but apart from Somuo City, there were indeed no other cities.
"Dup, I see a lot of places on the map that look like cities. What are these places?" Andres asked.
Dup laughed and said, "Master, those are not cities, but castles, built by some family and tribal forces. Although they are also very powerful, they are not comparable to the Four Great Families. Master, Somuo City has existed for a very long time. It is said that it existed when Hell was first born. Only such a place can be called a city."
"If Master is curious about Hell, he can go to Somuo City. The Four Great Families are powerful and regularly send people to other cities to bring back many rare items that Somuo City does not have. I also purchased many of the materials I need for my research on Magic Array through them. They also have maps of other areas of Hell."
After listening, Andres gained a basic understanding of the current Hell.
The current Hell is still in a very primitive era. To Dup and his group, the area within a hundred million miles of Somuo City is completely unknown to them.
However, in the original story, when Linley and his companions first arrived in Hell, a Middle God from the Black Dragon Tribe was able to know the general situation of the entire Hell.
This is normal, though. In the original story, the Sovereign established an organization like Demon Castle that was spread throughout Hell. In Demon Castle, you could buy a map of the entire Hell.
In this day and age, it is unlikely that any being has the capacity to establish an organization that spans the entirety of Hell.
"It seems that once I get to Hell, I need to go to Somuo City first and get a map," Andres thought to himself.
Although he had the memories of the original text, the original text did not describe the terrain and location of Hell in great detail.
He knew that Hell had five continents and two oceans, that the Four Divine Beasts were in the Skyrite Mountains of the Blood Peak Continent, and that the Plane Teleportation Array of the Blood Peak Continent was in Iron Saber Gorge. However, the original text did not specify which direction Iron Saber Gorge was in the Skyrite Mountains, so he naturally did not know.
"Master, you can go to Hell. The concentration of elements there far exceeds that of the Dylan Plane. Cultivation will be much faster Hell. Besides, Hamid is dead. You can take over his power and then go to Somuo City," Dup said.
The Middle God, including Holan, watched Andres with tension, for this concerned their future.
Andres nodded. "I do have that plan."
"Andres, are you leaving here for Hell?" Lulutia had been listening nearby, suddenly asked.
Andres didn't hide anything. "Yes, as Dup just said, Hell is more suitable for cultivation, and one's strength will improve faster."
Upon hearing this, Lulutia hesitated for a moment, then said, "Then I'll go too!"
"I think we should send all the strong and talented people from our various races. This will also improve their strength, and if something like Hamid happens again in the future, they can help you. Anyway, there is Plane Teleportation Array, so they can come back at any time. What do you think, Andres?" Cilia said.
Because of the system, Andres already knew that these Demigod in the Dylan Plane had reached the limit of their talents, and even if they went to the Supreme Plane, they would not improve unless Refine Divine Spark.
But it's not easy to say that directly.
He thought for a moment and then nodded in agreement, "Alright, if you're willing, you can come with me to Hell and cultivate in Iron Saber Gorge."
Andres looked at Holan: "Holan, you'll be following me from now on."
Holan and the other Middle God exchanged glances, and without much hesitation, bowed in unison. "Yes, sir."
Hell is a place of constant fighting and slaughter. Even Middle God are powerless to protect themselves. The safest option is to attach oneself to the strong.
After witnessing Andres's strength, Middle God like Holan were willing to Andres Andres's ranks.
"With Dup and Holan there, there shouldn't be any need to worry about Lulutia and the others' safety in Iron Saber Gorge," Andres thought to himself.
He was going to the Skyrite Mountains to find the Four Divine Beasts, so he couldn't stay in Iron Saber Gorge indefinitely. Moreover, he couldn't possibly lead so many people from the Dylan Plane to venture into Hell. Therefore, leaving them in Iron Saber Gorge was the safest option.
Dup has the strength of Highgod, Holan and the others are also very familiar with the situation near Iron Saber Gorge, so there shouldn't be any problems.
At this moment, Andres realized a problem.
There are seven Teleportation Array in Hell. When they teleport from the Dylan Plane, they appear randomly in one of them, not necessarily in Iron Saber Gorge.
"Holan, when we teleport from the Dylan Plane to Hell, will we go directly to Iron Saber Gorge?" he asked tactfully.
Holan said, "My lord, there are seven Teleportation Array Hell. We will appear at one of them randomly. But please rest assured, my lord, take a look at this."
Holan took out a black Token from his Space Ring and explained, "My lord, this Token is proof of the agreement between the controllers of the various Teleportation Array. With this Token, even if we teleport to another Teleportation Array, they will not make things difficult for us and will let us teleport again until we reach Iron Saber Gorge."
"An agreement?" Andres asked, puzzled.
"My lord, it is like this. After we mastered the Plane Teleportation Array, we discovered that there are many dimensions in this world. There are three more like Hell, namely the Netherworld, the Heaven Realm, and the Life God Realm. And there are countless dimensions like the Dylan Plane where you are."
"The number of Plane Teleportation Array the Netherworld, the Heaven Realm, and the Life God Realm varies, but each Teleportation Array has already been controlled by powerful individuals in the vicinity..."
Holan recounted the events of that time.
When the Teleportation Array first appeared, the strongest forces in the vicinity of Teleportation Array gained control of Teleportation Array.
Having mastered the Teleportation Array, they could freely travel to various Material Plane. Even if they did nothing else but raise beings from Material Plane and collect their Soul Essence like Hamid did, they could still reap great rewards.
Therefore, they naturally didn't want too many people to know.
During the use of the Teleportation Array, the controllers of the Plane Teleportation Array quickly became aware of each other's existence. They met together to discuss and reached an agreement to jointly keep the secret of the Teleportation Array and not compete with each other, since there were too many Material Plane and the benefits were more than enough to share.
Of course, the negotiation process was not easy or pleasant; there was a lot of mutual probing. If given the opportunity, neither of them would mind acquiring another Teleportation Array.
"That negotiation resulted in the fall of three Highgod before the basic framework was established. The remaining people, including Hamid, are all roughly equal in strength," Holan said.
Andres suddenly realized and asked, "Now that I'm replacing Hamid, won't the others have something to say?"
Holan smiled and said, "Please rest assured, my lord. In the Supreme Plane, the strong are respected. As long as you do not try to seize their interests, they will not interfere."
"That's good." Andres nodded. Although he wasn't afraid, he preferred to avoid trouble.
"My lord, are you about to depart now?" Holan asked.
"No, I still have some things to do in the Dylan Plane. I'll tell you when I leave."
"Yes, then I will stay in the Dylan Plane and wait for you, sir."
Andres looked at Cilia: "Cilia, Hamid is dead. The people in the Plane Prison can return to the Dylan Plane."
"I understand. I will have all races begin preparations immediately."
Everyone dispersed, while Andres returned to the Mitchell Family mansion in the Plane Prison.
He also remembered Helen telling him that Raul always thought about returning to his hometown of Oga City before he died.
With Hamid's crisis resolved, he was finally able to return to his hometown to be buried with his parents' remains.
Alex was extremely excited when he heard that he could go back. He had lived in Oga City for most of his life and naturally hoped to return. He immediately began to prepare for the relocation.
The various tribes began to get busy, but these were things Andres didn't need to worry about. He returned to his residence and took inventory of Hamid's Space Ring.
"He's Highgod, after all; he should have a lot of good stuff," Andres thought with a hint of anticipation.
He took out Hamid's Space Ring, dripped blood to bind it to him, and channeled his soul power into it.
"Huh? So many Godhead?"
The most numerous and conspicuous items in the Space Ring are various Godhead, numbering in the thousands. The majority are Lesser Godhead and Middle God, while the fewest are Highgodhead, consisting of only one, which is of the life attribute.
Besides Godhead, there are also many kinds of divine artifacts, including material attacks and material defenses, ranging from Highgod Artifact to Lesser Artifact.
"A Highgod Artifact!"
Andres's glasses lit up, and he flipped his hand to take out a Purple Longsword. This was one of the few Highgod Artifact in his Space Ring, which could be used to replace the Mithril Softsword.
Although he had been using divine power and soul power to nurture the Mithril Softsword, the time was too short, and it wasn't even Lesser Artifact, let alone Highgod Artifact.
Generally speaking, a divine artifact can only be considered Lesser Artifact after it has been forged and nurtured for ten thousand years.
Although the Purple Longsword is different in style from the Mithril Softsword, it can still be used and does not affect the use of Windfire Sword and Dimension Slash.
In addition to the Highgod Artifact material attack, Andres also found a set of Material Defense Armor, which was also of Highgod Artifact level.
After he pledged his blood to the master, the armor merged into his God Body.
Andres continued to examine the Space Ring and soon discovered dozens of golden beads.
"The Soul Gold Bead!"
This Soul Gold Bead was clearly something Hamid had already crafted, but hadn't yet absorbed.
Absorbing the Soul Gold Bead also takes time; it can't be done all at once.
"It's just enough to make up for the two parts of my soul that have been damaged."
Andres immediately took out a Soul Gold Bead and began to absorb it.
His soul strength is far from reaching the limit of Middle God.
While absorbing the Soul Gold Bead, Andres continued to take stock of the items in his Space Ring. The rest were just some miscellaneous items, not worth mentioning.
"Strange? What currency does Hell use now?"
Andres had this question when he obtained Leite's Space Ring, and now he was even more confused.
He Soul Transmission directly to Dup's soul.
"Dup, what currency is used in Hell for trade?"
