Chapter 2592

Until he saw the scepter of calamity, past fears welled up in his heart. When he saw the scepter of calamity…

He felt a sense of dread as if facing his master, but he knew his master was already dead, body perished and Dao dissipated.

Turned to ash and dust. Even if someone obtained the scepter of calamity, it would be impossible to unleash its power.

Thus, greed arose in his heart. He wanted to become the Lord of Hell. If he could obtain the scepter of calamity again…

Then his position as Lord of Hell would truly be legitimate and secure. Since Lin Moyu refused to hand over the scepter of calamity, he would kill Lin Moyu.

Obtaining the scepter of calamity—greed devoured the Nether God Lord's reason. As the former Nether Black Dragon…

He knew how powerful the scepter of calamity was. As long as he could obtain it, he could truly act without restraint.

Watching Lin Moyu enveloped by his Dragon Breath and shredded by the great net formed by his Red Fire light beams, he believed Lin Moyu would surely die.

Suddenly, a ray of light shone, illuminating the heaven and earth.

Within the light, everything changed. The Nether God Lord felt his power drop sharply.

Getting weaker and weaker, not just himself, but everyone.

Including the Nether Black Pool, including the fire cloud waterfall evolved from the hell fragment in the sky, all were weakening.

Fear rose again. He realized what had happened, and the Nether God Lord's voice trembled incessantly.

"Balance, it's the balance gem. Impossible."

"This is impossible. How could he use the balance gem? Could he be the reincarnation of my master?"

"No, that's impossible. My master died, his body perished and Dao dissipated."

"His soul scattered, even his true spirit completely dissipated. He cannot be reincarnated as a human."

"And so many years have passed. If he could really be reincarnated, he would have been long ago."

"But who exactly is he?"

"Could it be that in this world, besides my master, there is someone else who can use the scepter of calamity?"

In the blink of an eye, his cultivation realm had dropped to the Dao Venerable 5th Realm. Under the effect of the balance gem, everything around was in a state of extreme equilibrium.

The most numerous and weakest entities here were the Undead Legion, so everything was standardized based on the Undead Legion.

No matter who it was, whether a living being or a magic treasure, dead or alive.

Their power had all dropped to the Dao Venerable 5th Realm. Everyone's realm had lowered, only the power of the Skeleton Divine General had increased.

Because they were the weakest, worse than the average, so under the balance…

They actually improved a little bit. Lin Moyu stepped out from the black gas Dragon Breath, completely unharmed.

On the scepter of calamity, not only was the balance gem shining, but the elemental gem was also shining. With the elemental gem present…

Neither the Dragon Breath nor the red light beams could do anything to Lin Moyu. At this moment, Lin Moyu's realm had also fallen to the Dao Venerable 5th Realm.

Only his physical strength had not changed, remaining at the Dao Venerable 6th Realm.

Chapter 3295: Do You Have the Qualifications to Bargain?

The balance gem was very strong.

It could balance various powers, whether magic treasures, cultivation, realms, or formations; all were within its balancing range.

However, not everything could be balanced; there were exceptions.

For example, luck, or the Dao of Strength, or illusory things.

They could not be balanced. Now, the Nether God Lord's power had dropped, but Lin Moyu still possessed a physical body at the Dao Venerable 6th Realm.

The Dao of Strength governed his entire body, all power from inside to outside, whether attack or defense.

Whether it was physical strength or soul power, everything was under the governance of the Dao of Strength, forming a whole.

Even if Lin Moyu stood still and let the Nether God Lord kill him, the Nether God Lord wouldn't be able to hurt Lin Moyu in the slightest, at least under the restriction of the balance gem.

He did not have that ability. Furthermore, with the elemental gem present, all kinds of attacks related to elements…

Became completely ineffective. The Nether God Lord trembled, his eyes filled with fear as he looked at Lin Moyu.

The appearance of the scepter of calamity made him greedy, but the pulsating light of the two gems made him feel fear.

He seemed to recall those past years, thinking of the terror of his former master. In front of his former master…

He was so humble and insignificant. Past memories occupied his thoughts, causing the Nether God Lord to fall into a daze.

Lost in fear, it wasn't until Lin Moyu arrived in front of him that the Nether God Lord snapped back to his senses with a jolt.

If not for being unable to move, he would likely have fled without a trace by now. Lin Moyu looked at him.

With a smile, he asked, "Are you very afraid?"

At this moment, Lin Moyu's smile…

Was incomparably terrifying in the eyes of the Nether God Lord. He moved his mouth twice.

He did not speak. He was afraid that if he spoke, he would give himself away. At this moment, the Nether God Lord felt his entire body…

From the inside out, trembling without exception. He could not control his own body.

He was afraid that if he spoke, his voice would tremble. Lin Moyu said,

"I ask, you answer. If the answers satisfy me…"

"…perhaps I will consider sparing you. Do you understand?"

He was the meat on the chopping block, and the other was the butcher.

In the current situation, the Nether God Lord had no choice, as long as he still wanted to live.

He had to be obedient. Having survived the Origin Catastrophe with great difficulty and struggled for so many years…

The Nether God Lord still dreamed of breaking free from the shackles of the Nether Black Pool and becoming an independent living being. How could he possibly want to die?

The higher the realm and the longer one lived, the more one tended to fear death.

He did not speak, only nodded his head. Lin Moyu asked,

"Who shattered Hell back then?"

"How did your former master die?"

"Think carefully before you answer." The Nether God Lord seemed to recall what happened back then, and the look of fear in his eyes deepened.

A low, trembling sound came from his throat, "I don't know, I really don't know."

"I only saw a large hand descend, and Hell cracked!"

"Then my master left Hell."

"He must have been fighting the other party, but after a short while, I saw my master fall from the sky."

"Then that large hand descended again, striking my master until he was turned to ash and dust, and even Hell was shattered along with him."

Lin Moyu frowned. "This answer is different from what you said before."

The Nether God Lord said, "I lied to you before. I only know that it was a terrifying existence."

"Incomparably terrifying." Lin Moyu said, "What was your master's realm?"

"Compared to the Dao Lord, who was stronger!"

Lin Moyu was still very vague about the realm of the Lord of Hell at this time.

Perhaps even the Three Ancestors could not answer this question. The Nether God Lord should know a little more; perhaps he could get an answer.

The Nether God Lord whispered, "I don't know how strong the Dao Lord is, but I think…"

"…my master should be a little stronger." He seemed afraid that his answer would not satisfy Lin Moyu, so he immediately added,

"I spent most of my time sleeping and didn't care much about outside matters, so I don't know very much."

"However, I once saw the Dao Lord come to visit my master, so I feel that my master's status should be higher." Lin Moyu did not pursue the question.

He could feel that the Nether God Lord was not lying, so he changed the subject.

"Regarding the Gate of Hell, you seemed very afraid of it just now." The Nether God Lord said,

"My master once said that the Gate of Hell is the root of Hell and the most terrifying thing in Hell."

"But I have never seen my master use the Gate of Hell. Even when my master died in the end, the Gate of Hell did not move at all."

Lin Moyu frowned. "The Gate of Hell, it never moved?"

The Nether God Lord nodded, his trembling voice full of certainty, "It never moved."

Lin Moyu felt increasingly strange. Since the Gate of Hell was the most terrifying thing in the entire Hell, it should be incomparably powerful.

"Why, in the end, when Hell was shattered, did it not move?"

"This is not logical. If it is so powerful, why not use it?"

Lin Moyu could not guess why, but the power of the Gate of Hell should be common knowledge.

Whether it was the Nether God Lord's fear of the Gate of Hell or the reaction of a Great Dao Realm expert like Jin Lei at the time, one could deduce…

That the Gate of Hell was indeed a very terrifying existence. It had never been used, yet it made people feel afraid. It could only be said that…

This information must have leaked from the mouth of the Lord of Hell. If he hadn't said it, who would have known?

Lin Moyu also knew he couldn't ask anything more, so he changed the subject again. "When Hell shattered back then…"

"…how did you survive?"

"Also, tell me in detail about how you evolved the Nether Race."

The Nether God Lord said, "At that time, my master died, and I was very afraid."

"I retreated to the deepest part of the Nether Black Pool. Later, Hell was shattered, and the Nether Black Pool was also broken."

"I was also seriously injured, but I was lucky and did not die."

"I arrived here with the fragments. For so many years, I have always hoped to recover as before."

"But I was too badly injured, and without Hell, the Nether Black Pool was like water without a source."

"My main body could never recover. Fortunately, the power of the Nether Black Pool remained, and I also had a hell fragment."

"So I used the Nether Black Pool and the hell fragment to evolve the Nether Race." The answer the Nether God Lord gave…

Was similar to what Lin Moyu had thought. There were only some discrepancies in the details, which did not have much impact.

In order to survive, the Nether God Lord was indeed telling everything he knew without reservation.

Lin Moyu calculated the time; the time for the great dao undying pill was running out, so he hurried to ask,

"How many pieces did Hell shatter into back then?"

The Nether God Lord thought for a moment. "Not many pieces."

"When Hell shattered, most of it turned to ash and dust. The fragments that could remain were very few."

"However, I know that there is a special fragment that did not turn to ash and dust."

"I know you want to re-evolve Hell and become the Lord of Hell, but as long as you cannot find that piece…"

Chapter 3296: I Won't Kill You, But I Didn't Say I Would Let You Go.

"…it is useless no matter how many hell fragments you collect." Lin Moyu asked, "What special fragment?"

The Nether God Lord said, "You promise me first, as long as I tell you…"

"…you will not kill me." Lin Moyu sneered, "Do you have the qualifications to bargain?"

The Nether God Lord suddenly became very tough. "If you don't agree, then just kill me."

"I won't tell you anyway." He acted with the stubbornness of someone who had nothing left to lose, appearing to want to use this information to save his life.

Lin Moyu had previously only said he could consider not killing him, but he hadn't truly promised him. Seeing the Nether God Lord like this…

Lin Moyu said, "Fine, as long as you tell the truth."

"I will not kill you." The Nether God Lord said, "That is a piece…"

The Nether God Lord's voice was incredibly deep, and at the same time, slightly trembling, as if it wanted to bring people back to that distant era.
