On Nethermountain, in a garden behind a majestic palace, two women of unparalleled beauty were enjoying flowers and tea.

"An interesting fellow has come down from the mountain." The pretty red-haired woman chuckled softly, a smile that made the countless precious flowers in the garden pale in comparison.

"Have they arrived?" another woman in a green robe murmured.

"You know that guy?" The red-haired woman pointed to a silver-robed man carrying a fishing rod and a reclining chair at the Nethermountain. Strangely, the fishhook in the young man's hand was a straight iron nail; this young man was actually preparing to fish with an iron nail!

"I do know him. That guy owes me a huge favor!" The woman in green chuckled, her crescent-shaped eyes narrowing slightly, as if she had thought of something interesting.

" Vivian, that guy owes you a favor?" The Sovereign of Death looked at the chuckling Sovereign of Life, Vivian, with great surprise.

"Big sister, why don't you keep watching? This guy is quite interesting!" Vivian chuckled, not directly answering the Sovereign of Death's question, her eyes gazing at Bolan below the mountain.

At this moment, the Water Element Divine Clone of the Sovereign of Death, who was fishing down the mountain, couldn't help but cast his curious gaze toward Bolan's three-elemental rule avatar.

"Your gaze is too aggressive; it scared my fish away!" Bolan sensed someone staring at him and reminded the red-haired woman with a smile.

"Really? You can catch fish with nails?" The red-haired woman chuckled, and with a flick of her wrist, the slender fishing line and sharp hook shot towards Bolan at lightning speed.

"Hehe, looks like I won't be catching any fish today." Bolan also gave his fishing rod a slight shake, and a slightly rusty iron nail went straight towards the hook that the red-haired woman had thrown.

"Ding." A crisp "ding" sound rang out, and the two men's fishhooks and nails broke in two at the same time.

"Haha, the hook broke. Looks like we're not going to catch any fish today. Let's go to the hotel for a drink instead!" Bolan smiled slightly, put away his fishing rod, and laughed at the red-haired woman.

Although Bolan knew that the red-haired woman was an Divine Clone of the Sovereign of Death, he still went fishing with her at the lake every day. However, apart from the first day's test, for the next six months, the two simply sat quietly by the lake fishing and rarely communicated.

It wasn't until six months later, when Bolan's Wind Divine Clone, that the pretty red-haired woman glanced at Bolan again, albeit indifferently.

When the Sovereign of Death saw Bolan's Wind Divine Clone hand the Green Stone Bead to the three-elemental rule avatar, although his expression remained calm, a hint of shock could still be faintly seen in his eyes.

" Vivian, I never expected you to give that bead to this guy. You should know that bead contains all your understanding of the Life Law!" On Nethermountain, the Sovereign of Death looked at Vivian, who was all smiles, with curiosity.

"Hehe, my Life Law have long been perfected. This bead is nothing more than a collectible to me." Vivian chuckled, showing no surprise at the Sovereign of Death's question.

"Is that so!" The Sovereign of Death gave Vivian a deep look, a slight smile playing on his lips, before turning his intrigued gaze back to where Bolan was.

"You're planning to go to Nethermountain, aren't you?" The Water Element- Divine Clone of the Sovereign of Death looked at Bolan's two avatars. With her strength, she could naturally sense that their soul auras belonged to the same person.

"Haha, of course! I've heard that there's a peculiar Netherfruit on Nethermountain that can quickly raise one's strength to the level of Prefect Lord. I came to the Netherworld this time to see if my luck is good enough to obtain that Netherfruit!" Bolan chuckled, and his three-elemental Divine Clone handed the fishing rod in his hand to his Wind Divine Clone avatar.

"While the Netherfruit does indeed have this effect, it no longer works on your two Divine Clone," the Sovereign of Death said calmly.

"Haha, who knows? Maybe I just wanted to get one to play with!" Bolan waved his hand and smiled slightly.

"The full moon three days from now will be the time when Nethermountain opens its gates. Here's a word of advice: be careful of the trees and snakes on the mountain!" The Sovereign of Death glanced at Bolan and said calmly.

"Thank you for letting me know!" Bolan said with a smile.

"I hope you can come back alive!" The Sovereign of Death gave Bolan a meaningful look.

Three days later, on the night of the full moon, an eerie red moon, as round as a disc, hung high in the sky, Nethermountain, its entire body shimmering with hazy electric light, seemed to be covered with a layer of pale red gauze under the moonlight.

Bolan looked up at the Nethermountain, where countless chains of lightning descended from the summit like a waterfall. At the northern foot of the Nethermountain, there was a giant gate, ten meters high, with strange patterns carved on it. A large amount of lightning flowed around the edge of the gate, but there was not a single lightning bolt inside.

Bolan calmly looked at the dozens of High God with solemn expressions. The weakest of these High God was at least Six-star Demon, but they were still full of apprehension towards this Nethermountain.

As the others crowded towards the mountain gate, Bolan's three-elemental rule clones instantly transformed into a streak of dark green divine light, rushing towards the mountain peak under the watchful eyes of the others.

The Water Element Divine Clone of the Sovereign of Death glanced strangely at Bolan's Wind Divine Clone, who was still fishing.

"Are you only sending your clone up to Nethermountain?"

"Yes, isn't that enough?" Bolan countered.

Upon hearing Bolan's question, the Sovereign of Death couldn't help but chuckle.

Indeed, the Divine Clone that Bolan sent up was among the strongest in the Prefect Lord. If he hadn't obtained the Netherfruit, then sending up another Wind Divine Clone with similar strength would have yielded the same result.

"It's quite interesting that there's no gravity in this Nethermountain." Bolan chuckled, reaching out to gently touch the lightning chains that were so close by. Feeling a faint tingling sensation from his fingers, Bolan flew towards the mountain peak again.

"These white mists and lightning may pose a life-threatening danger to others, but to me, they are not even a common threat." Bolan spread out his divine sense, sensing that the entire white mist was within his range, but his expression showed no sign of letting his guard down.

A moment later~~~~

"It's out! It seems our trip to Nethermountain will have a successful ending!" Bolan looked at the gray mist that had replaced the white mist. Just then, a slender green snake rushed out from the white mist, opened its snout with two venomous fangs, and bit down hard on Bolan's neck.

"Hehe, it's been following me all this way, and finally couldn't resist!" Bolan casually grabbed the green snake in his hand and squeezed it gently.
