The Ugly One Even Among Demons

Afterward, Du Mu questioned Lei Kung about the Eighth City in greater detail.

The Eighth City was also known as Hell and the Ghost Domain.

It imprisoned all kinds of beings defined as the "evils of the world," forming a stark contrast with the Seven Capital Cities of Heaven, which were like paradise.

Like the Seven Capital Cities of Heaven, the Eighth City was located in a completely independent Pocket Dimension. The entire space was cut off from the outside world, and there was only one passage in and out.

According to Lei Kung, the seven first-generation Immortal Weapons of the Seven Capital Cities of Heaven had once joined forces and gone to great lengths to send most of the demons, Dimensional Monsters, and sinful people into the Eighth City, intending to seal them away and eliminate this scourge once and for all.

However, the prisoners who had been locked inside refused to sit around and wait for death. They desperately held the gates back, preventing the seven Immortal Weapons from closing the entrance to the Eighth City.

The two sides became locked in a stalemate.

As long as the prisoners continued resisting, the Eighth City's gates could not be closed.

To break the deadlock, the first Iron Fist, Yaozu Quan, made a decision that went against his ancestors.

He chose to sacrifice himself, entering the Eighth City voluntarily and successfully closing the gates from the inside. He then coordinated with the other six Immortal Weapons from both sides, finally sealing the Eighth City completely.

The price, however, was that he was sealed inside the Eighth City along with all the prisoners, trapped forever in that cage filled with darkness and evil, never to emerge again.

"What a ruthless man."

Du Mu rubbed his chin and nodded sincerely.
