Lynn had remained at the City Lord's residence for more than ten days before finally setting down the crystal orb in his hand, still wanting more.

During this time, he had watched every single floating image.

The results were significant as well. He had fully comprehended the fusion of the three Lightning Law profundities—"Lightning Element," "Flicker," and "Power of Judgment"—and had begun to gain insight into "Power of Destruction." He had even comprehended part of the fusion between "Power of Destruction" and "Lightning Element."

As for the fire element, he had also understood the threshold for fusing "Fire Element," "Scorching Heat," and "Explosion Profundity." The fusion of those three profundities had entered the right track.

Only the dark element was different. Unlike the other two elements, which already existed completely within his soul and merely needed to be understood, the Dark Element had to be researched by himself. He needed to comprehend every profundity apart from the Shadow Clone Technique. It was a cumbersome and slow process; even taking a thousand years to fully understand the six profundities of a single law would qualify one as a super genius.

"Floating Light, thank you for these floating images!" Lynn said with a smile. "Watching these battle images has benefited me enormously!"

As Floating Light Demon led Lynn out of the underground palace, he shook his head. "The floating images I have here are considered rather poor. A friend of mine has floating images of far better quality than these."

"Many of the floating images in his collection depict battles between peak Seven-star Demons, as well as battles involving Hell Asuras and Purgatory Commanders. There are even images of Main Gods taking action."

A smile appeared at the corner of Floating Light Demon's lips. "If you're interested, Lynn, I can introduce you to him. Of course, you'll have to pay the viewing fee yourself!"

"Floating images of Main Gods taking action?" Lynn nodded slightly.

Having read the original work, he knew that the will of a Main God could not be defied. With a mere thought, a Main God could easily kill a Highgod. Before a Main God, no matter how powerful a Highgod was, they had no ability to resist.

Even Paragon Highgods might not be killed by a Main God with a thought from billions of miles away, but if they dared provoke a Main God face-to-face, they would still be walking a dead-end path.

Thus, Lynn was not interested in images of Main Gods taking action. What he wanted to see was how high-ranking Demons used profundities and fusion profundities.

"Well? Do you want to see them?" Floating Light Demon's blood-red eyes looked at Lynn without betraying any emotion.

Lynn nodded, then asked, "Where does your friend live?"

As for the viewing fee, Lynn did not ask. He had killed Alex and taken his wealth. He now possessed more than a hundred billion Ink Stones in total, so wealth had long since lost its meaning to him.

"My friend lives on Milo Island in the Star Mist Sea! These floating images are collected by his family!" Floating Light Demon explained. "His father is the true ruler of Milo Island, a powerful Purgatory Commander!"

"Milo Island!" Lynn immediately recalled the plot from the original work.

On the surface, Milo Island's masters were the five great families led by the Bagshaw Family. In truth, its real ruler was Purgatory Commander Mosi Bagshaw.

This Mosi was only one step away from becoming a Paragon in the Rules of Death. In the original work, he claimed that across countless planes, there were at most ten people whose soul cultivation surpassed his.

He was also a member of the special race known as the Blood Pattern Titans. In terms of strength, he was likely among the very strongest Purgatory Commanders, one of the top figures beneath the Paragons.

Moreover, Mosi was a real schemer. Through his research into souls, he had soul-controlled quite a number of Seven-star Demons!

Could this Floating Light Demon be trying to lure me to Milo Island so that Mosi can soul-control me? Lynn glanced at Floating Light Demon without revealing anything, wondering whether this fellow had already been soul-controlled by Mosi.

"I've gained some insights from the floating images in your collection, so I intend to enter seclusion and cultivate for a while!" With countless thoughts flashing through his mind, Lynn directly shook his head and rejected Floating Light Demon's proposal. "Milo Island is too far away! I'll go watch those floating images when I have time in the future!"

"Fine!" Floating Light Demon's expression did not change in the slightest. "If you wish to go, contact me anytime. I'll introduce you!"

After returning to the hotel, Lynn sat down cross-legged and quickly immersed himself in his insights into the fusion of laws.

At the same time, since he had gained insights into both the Lightning Law and the Fire Laws, he naturally needed to use those newly understood fusion profundities to create ultimate techniques.

His main body also needed to continue refining divine sparks of the four elements—Earth, Wind, Water, Fire—to strengthen the Origin Power within his body.

As for the floating images on Milo Island, he would still go watch them. Once he had digested this round of insights, he would head there directly.

Mosi might be powerful, but he still fell short if he wanted to soul-control Lynn!

However, Lynn's cultivation this time did not last long. He had only just comprehended the threshold for fusing the "Flicker" profundity with the "Power of Destruction" profundity when someone came looking for him again.

Within the small courtyard, Lynn calmly looked at the ordinary-looking young man with long black hair standing before him. "You said you wanted to make a deal with me?"

"Yes, Lord Lynn!" the young man said respectfully. "My name is Sam Talin. My father is the patriarch of the Talin Family!"

"The Talin Family?" Lynn was somewhat puzzled. "What deal does your Talin Family want to make with me?"

At this point, Lynn had yet to connect the young man before him, who claimed to be the son of the Talin Family's patriarch, with the Talin Family that had been exterminated by the Four Divine Beast Families.

After all, there were countless living beings in Hell. The number of families bearing the surname Talin was probably enormous.

Seeing Lynn's puzzled expression, the young man hurriedly explained, "The Talin Family I belong to is the Talin Family exterminated by the Four Divine Beast Families."

"I am an illegitimate son, and I had never returned to the Talin Family, so even within the Talin Family, no one besides my father knew of my existence." The young man smiled bitterly. "The reason the experts of the Four Divine Beast Families exterminated the Talin Family was actually for a treasure obtained by the Talin Family—the 'Fallen Realm Token.' My father gave this Fallen Realm Token to me in advance."

"According to what my father told me, there is a spatial passage guarded by the Muya Legion in the central region of the Muya Continent. Normally, this spatial passage remains closed, and the Muya Legion does not permit anyone to enter!"

"However, once every million years, the passage opens. Only deities holding a Fallen Realm Token are permitted to enter!"

"On the other side of the passage lies a peculiar plane known as the Fallen Realm. Within the Fallen Realm are all kinds of treasures—Sovereign's Might, rare wonders of heaven and earth... It is even said that some deities have obtained Sovereign Artifacts there!"

"The next opening of the Fallen Realm will be five years from now!" The black-haired young man, Sam, looked respectfully at Lynn. "Lord Lynn, the deal I wish to make with you concerns this Fallen Realm Token. I will gift the Fallen Realm Token to you, and after you emerge from the Fallen Realm, you will grant me a drop of Sovereign's Might!"

Lynn was left dumbfounded. "What Necropolis of the Gods?"
