Chapter 1782: Recognition of Status
"Return.
"
At Qin Lie’s command, the fire spirit consuming fire energy of Molten Rock Purgatory docilely flew back to his side.
It immediately stopped his flame consumption ability.
The collapsing Molten Rock Purgatory immediately returned to normal.
The spatial cracks gradually healed.
The erupting volcanoes stopped shaking, and the quaking earth slowly calmed.
"Good.
"
Nine Hells Monarch Auston clearly sighed in relief and said,
"Fortunately, Molten Rock Purgatory has not been destroyed.
"
"My Molten Rock Purgatory is three percent smaller! The lost lands have been stolen by Flaming Sun Purgatory!
" the monarch of Molten Rock roared in discontent.
Only he and Qin Lie knew what Molten Rock Purgatory had lost in that short time.
"As long as Molten Rock Purgatory has not completely collapsed, the power you lost and the lost lands can be recovered,” the Plague Monarch urged.
"You will just have to spend some time, around ten thousand years. You can gather back the fire energy you’ve lost. However, if Molten Rock Purgatory had been destroyed, you wouldn’t keep your position of a Devil Monarch. Many Great Lords of the upper Abyss levels have eyes on the Eight Purgatories and would madly jump at the opportunity to dethrone you.
"
"Molten Rock Monarch, be... a bit more peaceful,” the Phantom Monarch said with cold eyes.
"The life crystal of the Flame Devil King has just left you. Seems like your master doesn’t want to be revived like you think!
"
"The Flaming Sun Monarch ruined it!
" the Molten Rock Monarch shouted in discontent.
"You almost died. Did you not see that?
" Auston snorted.
"If you continue to be stubborn, do not blame us for being rude!
" the Black Moon Monarch shouted angrily.
"Let's leave first,
" the Plague Monarch said impatiently.
"Crack!
"
Those Devil Monarchs tore spatial cracks as their enormous bodies immediately left Molten Rock Purgatory.
Qin Lie laughed lowly. After the other six Devil Monarchs left, he looked at the Molten Rock Monarch and said,
"Your lord clearly trusts me more. You should not interfere. Maybe... your Flame Devil King has other plans? He might appear one day and replace me.
"
Subsequently, Qin Lie's enormous body flew away from Molten Rock Purgatory.
The Molten Rock Monarch looked dazedly at the sky. He pondered the meaning in Qin Lie's words and murmured a while later,
"Does Lord and Castor have the same idea?
" His eyes lit up.
He felt that an Abyss Devil that had reached the ultimate realm and become the Abyss Master would not pass away so easily.
Castor was killed by the eight Devil Monarchs, the patriarch of the Demon Spirit of Space and Time Race, and other foreign race experts but his death wasn’t actually permanent.
After millions of years, hadn't Castor come back and caused turbulent waves to spread through the Abyss?
Could the Flame Devil King, who was stronger than Castor in his prime, perish just like that?
But if he perished, how could he leave his life crystals imprinted with his comprehended laws of power?
When he thought of this, the Molten Rock Monarch's thoughts moved and he seemed to understand the meaning in Qin Lie's words.
Hope rekindled in his mind!
In the abyss passageway, Qin Lie came out of Molten Rock Purgatory and saw Auston and the other six Devil Monarchs waiting for him.
"Castor's eight avatars are scattered in the upper hundred levels. With Lieyan Yuan and Tian Qi's help, he killed several Great Lords of the Abyss. At this pace, all of his avatars will soon recover to their peak.
" The Sacrificial Ghost Monarch glared at him and said,
"Our subordinates are in the upper hundred levels. We can guess Castor's hiding place. We want to kill some of his avatars before he recovers to his peak so he cannot become the Abyss Master again.
"
Qin Lie said calmly,
"I agree.
"
"When we find Castor's avatars, we hope that you will pay attention to his soul and not let him escape!
" the Plague Monarch said.
"Alright.
" Qin Lie nodded.
Auston thought for a moment and said,
"We discussed the topic and concluded… that the Flame Devil King’s life crystal may be able to completely refine Castor’s soul. So when the time comes, we hope that you can accomplish this task!
"
"I’d be happy to do so,
" Qin Lie stated.
He strongly agreed with the suggestions of the six Devil Monarchs because Castor was his archenemy.
Once Castor grew strong, he would be the one out of luck.
"Also, we hope that you can make use of your relationship with the God Race. The Eight Purgatories are their own thing. We don’t want foreign races coming in and out all the time,
" the Sacrificial Ghost Monarch said proudly.
"Oh.
" Qin Lie did not give a clear answer and said,
"If there is nothing else, I will leave first.
"
Before the six Devil Monarchs spoke and before the Molten Rock Monarch came out of Molten Rock Purgatory, he suddenly disappeared from the abyss passageway.
"What attitude is this? Damn it, he killed my son Locke! He still dares to disregard me!
" the Sacrificial Ghost Monarch shouted angrily.
"You have many sons. Having a few die is nothing to you,
" Auston teased.
"You have seen his strength. I want to help him become a Devil Monarch so that he can stop Castor. Everyone, spend some effort and find Castor as soon as possible. If we kill two of his avatars, Castor will not have much hope of becoming the Abyss Master. For our own interests, let's tolerate the Flaming Sun Monarch slightly since… he’s currently on a rise.
"
"His strength is too abnormal. I have a bad feeling.
" The Plague Monarch was worried and said,
"I worry that he will become someone more terrifying than the Flame Devil King and Castor.
"
At these words, the six Devil Monarchs in the abyss passageway fell silent.
Their eyes showed great worry. They felt anxious after seeing Qin Lie's power.
"Ascension from a Devil Monarch to the Abyss Master is not just about strength. One needs to have thorough and deep comprehension of the laws of the Abyss.
" Auston comforted everyone after a moment.
"The Flame Devil King and Castor took a long time to take that step. And they know the secret to achieving the ultimate realm. Once they awaken, probability of reaching this level once again is high.
“The Flaming Sun Monarch has just become a Devil Monarch. I think... in the next million years, he can’t break through.
"
"You do not have to worry.
"
The Sacrificial Ghost Monarch thought for a while, nodded and said,
"I hope so.
"
"I really do not want to be ruled by someone else,
" the Plague Monarch said.
"Same with me.
"
"So be it.
"
The Devil Monarchs talked for a while longer and eventually left.
