Chapter 1436: Chapter 1436: Sovereign of the River of Oblivion Lethe River
Nine Nether is his woman. If she’s truly in danger, Chu Yuan must intervene.
Although Nine Nether is very strong-willed and independent, whenever she encounters danger, Chu Yuan will rescue her.
This time, she encountered some trouble in Hell, making Chu Yuan very anxious.
If it were an ordinary Heavenly Dao deity, entering Hell would take decades, but Chu Yuan doesn’t need that time. He maximizes his speed, arriving in Hell at nearly primordial shuttle speed shortly after.
“Although the sensing is still weak, fortunately it’s still there!”
Upon reaching Hell, Chu Yuan sensed Nine Nether’s position and said briefly afterward, “She’s actually in the Hell Ocean! What’s she doing there? Luckily, it’s not in the main city of a Sovereign. Hell Ocean is strewn with ruins and boundless opportunities, possibly leading to peril!”
“To the Hell Ocean!”
Chu Yuan maximizes his speed, quickly heading to Hell Ocean.
“Despair Sea Eye, Nine Nether is there!”
Having been to Hell Ocean before, Chu Yuan isn’t too unfamiliar with it. The Despair Sea Eye is the most dangerous critical point within Hell Ocean.
Raging winds howl over a vast area; crossing even for Heavenly Dao deities takes several months. It’s a massive funnel-shaped sea eye, rapidly rotating, exuding apocalyptic majesty.
Time-space is chaotic, shattering space amidst its rotations.
It’s called the Despair Sea Eye precisely because its danger drives people to despair.
Even a Grand Sovereign, let alone a Heavenly Dao deity who falls into it, can hardly resist the suction to escape.
There’s a rumor that such immense power is because Despair Sea Eye connects to Hell’s operating origin.
Hell Heaven’s origin is so vast, inparable to heavens like Vast Ocean Heavenly or Calamity Crossing Heavenly. When its power erupts, even Primal Divine beings must perish.
The strongest in Hell Heaven, Ming, exists akin to the Creator of Divine Realm.
“Hmm?”
Entering time-space, Chu Yuan sees numerous Heavenly Dao deities at Despair Sea Eye, all extremely formidable figures.
Using the Path of Time-Space, he’s right beside them, listening to their conversation.
“Damn it, that woman actually fled into Despair Sea Eye. Does she really think she can evade our pursuit that way?”
Many powerful figures have gathered together.
“She stole the most important treasure of our Forgotten River Heaven Clan. The Sect Master has already ordered her capture!”
One Fifth Realm with a cold, ruthless face leads the group, constantly staring at Despair Sea Eye.
“Elder, but how do we capture her? You know Despair Sea Eye’s danger, it’s connected to Hell Origin, its power is frightening. Although we’re Heavenly Dao, the internal space is too chaotic. That woman is hidden we don’t know where, making it impossible to capture her.”
A Heavenly Dao deity frowns.
The elder says, “Difficult as it is, she must be captured. If not, we’ll monitor her. She can’t stay in Despair Sea Eye forever. We’ll seal this place, capture her if she dares appear, and await the arrival of the clan’s strongest force, confirm her location, and capture her in one go!”
“Indeed.”
Chu Yuan knows Nine Nether is inside Despair Sea Eye, yet hasn’t found her, so for now, he feels relieved.
“Nine Nether has obtained something. I sensed it. Not only are the Forgotten River Heaven Clan people searching for her, there are Heavenly Dao deities from other forces looking for her. But can you dare touch my woman?”
Chu Yuan’s expression is icy, “The most crucial thing now is to first get Nine Nether out of Hell Heaven; otherwise, more will gather, and I’ll be helpless.”
His body moves with the whirlpool of the Sea Eye layer by layer. Despite the highly dangerous tearing storms, to a strong figure like him, they cause little concern.
Before his eyes is all darkness, exceptionally chaotic and violent laws.
Whoosh, whoosh…
The Great Light Technique abruptly illuminates the darkness, the seawater thick as ink, all dense Hell energy, deadly poison to his heavenly might.
Chu Yuan ignores this.
This is the depth of Hell Ocean, the place muning with Hell Origin, danger is self-evident.
In Chu Yuan’s senses, there’s always a coordinate guiding him forward, and deep within Despair Sea Eye it bees increasingly narrow like a funnel.
Yet the power can exponentially increase.
He sees countless skeletons within the spiraling Sea Eye. By appearance and aura, from various heavens, they’re martial artists fallen in Hell Ocean, sucked inside.
In the depths of Despair Sea Eye, layers of time-space twist like braids, extremely plex.
“Nine Nether… Nine Nether…”
Chu Yuan calls out to Nine Nether.
In the pitch-black dim world, a cyclone-like fury rises, surging mightily as the pressure reaches its peak.
The fast-rotating whirlpool, no exaggeration, even Heavenly Dao Fifth Realm can’t withstand it for long.
He descends along the spiral.
Chu Yuan waves to blast open the rotating seawater, violent tearing gathers toward him, but all disintegrate by the Great Devouring Technique, instantly seeming to see a faintly glowing river resisting Despair Sea Eye’s might.
Within that river, he senses Nine Nether’s whereabouts.
“Nine Nether, I’ve arrived.” Chu Yuan’s longtime somber expression finally shows a smile.
“Your Majesty.”
It’s Nine Nether’s familiar voice.
Chu Yuan enters the water flow surrounding Nine Nether, seeing her, slightly surprised as Nine Nether’s cultivation has already broken through to the Second Realm.
“Your Majesty, how e you’re here?” Nine Nether asks, surprised.
“I sensed your signal weakening in the Divine Dynasty, uncertain of what mishap in Hell you encountered, thus came here. Outside, many search for you.”
Chu Yuan says, “Fortunately you’re unharmed, so I’m relieved.”
“I know what they’re searching for.”
Nine Nether points to the river surrounding her, “This is the Forgotten River, a Primal Divine Artifact. An ancient Sovereign named Forgotten River refined the river into a special Primal Divine Artifact in Hell; it’s precisely because I obtained it that I’m pursued.”
“Forgotten River Sovereign?”
Chu Yuan searches his memory, “Among Hell’s eighteen Sovereigns, there is no Forgotten River Sovereign. Could he have already fallen?”
“Forgotten River Sovereign fell a long, long time ago.” Nine Nether nods.
Many know Hell has eighteen Sovereigns, never changing, but don’t know, within those eighteen Sovereigns, it’s not eternally unchanging, and Sovereigns can fall.
Just like the thirty-three heavens.
Being called the thirty-three heavens, there are always only thirty-three domains.
Yet the thirty-three heavens have changed many times.
Hell’s Sovereigns are also Sovereigns.
This is an age-old unchanging certainty.
Hell has more than eighteen Primal gods, but to bee a Sovereign, a position must open, and if no position is available, they must defeat other Sovereigns.
Once being a Hell Sovereign, within Hell Heaven they’re akin to a divine ruler, able to control part of Hell Origin.
The Hell Heaven has eighteen Sovereigns, but remember, Hell Heaven’s area is so large, it exceeds the lower-ranked thirty-three heavens by several dozen times.
Of course, Hell Sovereigns, having eighteen, can’t freely control like other divine rulers.
The true master of Hell has always been only one person: Ming!
Forgotten River Sovereign is precisely a fallen one.
