Chapter 4072 - Minor Hell King
The Ninefold Hellstar was ever so dark and sinister. Its many cities, however, glowed colorfully in stark contrast, giving it a phantasmic beauty. It went without saying that Ninefold Universe City was the brightest pearl among all the cities there, being the largest as well as the mecca of the devas. Like a goddess of peerless beauty, its many grand buildings housed countless cosmic gods. Even a normal street would be a hundred thousand meters wide and normal buildings were also about that high.
Cosmic gods ranging from hundreds to thousands of meters tall flew about through the busy city, no matter what time it was. Surely, it was even more busy before the departure of the Ninefold Wargod and her army.
Yin Chens crawled about all over the city, taking on multiple different forms and hiding in the corners, watching everything. Thanks to that, Tianming could waltz into the city without even bothering to disguise himself. Every street he traveled on was basically deserted. Not a single deva knew that the fiend in a purple mask that they had seen through the Heavenly Dao Arena was among them.
Tianming headed toward the palace in Ninefold Universe City. The closer he got to it, the fewer people were around. Despite the accident at the upper ruins, the devas in the city didn't seem too concerned. Even those whose families were there didn't worry and continued to go about their lives as usual. The mood in the city was relaxed indeed.
"Clearly, they're still confident in the Eightpart Pantheons' abilities. They must think that there's no obstacle they can't overcome." Tianming looked at the denizens of the city from the walls of the palace before sneaking into it. There were even fewer people within. Yin Chen had located the flower and Tianming only had to follow its instructions.
"Two people... up front..." Yin Chen said.
"Alright. I'll be fine." Tianming continued to stealthily make his way deeper. Soon, he found himself at the white star-like lake. Within it was a thousand-meter plant that looked like a white lotus covered in stars. Every single petal was covered in complicated floral patterns. The light from the petals glistened across the surface of the water. Tianming could smell a refreshing fragrance from a distance. The fact that it pleased his cosmic god body meant that the plant had an incredible effect.
"It must be something good." Even if he didn't use it against Ming Xingwang, the Sacredstar Spirit could surely be used for some other purpose. Anything above the godshaker class had to be impressive in its own right.
As Tianming took another whiff, he spotted two cosmic gods leaning against each other, engaged in a joyous conversation.
"The minor hell king and his lover...." Yin Chen had already told him about them. The minor hell king was Princess You You's eldest brother with imperial-lineage talent and a sevenfold hell-ring. Being the eldest son of the Ninefold Wargod, he was more than eight thousand years old and the future successor of the Ninefold Hellstar.
Tianming noted that the minor hell king was about three thousand meters in height, tall as a mountain. He glowed like a dark star, emanating lots of powerful cosmoforce. Had Tianming not had so much omnisentient power, he wouldn't have dared to approach someone like that from behind.
The minor hell king was no longer just a young genius, but a true powerhouse in his prime. He was also one of the people left behind to run the Ninefold Hellstar and was easily among the top ten fighters there. Tianming could also tell that the woman in his embrace was a powerful cosmic god that was also around three thousand meters in height. Clearly, she was also from a powerful faction.
