Spirit Realm-Chapter 1793: Gathering of Abyss Devils!
“Qin Lie! Don’t let him escape!”
Nine Hells Monarch Auston shouted after flying all the way from Flaming Sun Purgatory.
The other six monarchs were following closely behind him. They quickly blocked off Castor’s way to the upper one hundred Abyss levels.
Without the Galaxy Mirror, they couldn’t open a spatial rift from Flaming Sun Purgatory and enter the abyss passageway immediately like Qin Lie.
That was why they showed up later.
Therefore, they didn’t see Qin Lie bombarding Castor with the Galaxy Mirror or hear their conversation earlier.
All they knew was that Castor would return to Eight Purgatories even stronger if he were allowed to escape.
They would have to face an even scarier Castor!
“You people!”
Castor chuckled sinisterly and tauntingly at the seven Devil Monarchs.
“This is as far as the seven of you can go. You can spend your whole life cultivating and never progress a single step further.”
“That is why none of you will ever be a threat to me!”
“You are nothing more but side characters!”
Castor tone was mocking.
“Side characters, huh…” the Ghost Sacrificial Monarch replied with chilling eyes. “So what if we’re side characters? At the very least, we’ve never died or lost our purgatories. You on the other hand, have died once already. What right do you have to look down on us?”
“My death has little to do with the seven of you,” Castor said with a cold snort. He suddenly shot a glance at the Galaxy Mirror Qin Lie used to attack him until he was threatened with mutual destruction.
Surprisingly, a trace of fear flashed across his eyes when he stared at the sacred relic of Demon Spirits of Space and Time.
“If the patriarch of the Demon Spirits of Space and Time hadn’t been so fearless, if he hadn’t done everything in his power to kill me, do you think I would’ve transformed into eight Nether Rivers and fall into slumber temporarily?” Castor sneered at them. “You aren’t the ones who killed me at all!”
All seven Devil Monarchs looked a bit embarrassed after his retort came.
They were aware that the Demon Spirits of Space and Time were the main reason they were able to slay Castor back then.
Even now, the only reason they were able to drive Castor to a corner was Qin Lie.
“Are we really that inferior compared to him?” Auston thought to himself.
“Qin Lie! What else are you waiting for? Do you really want our main souls to perish together?” Castor threatened Qin Lie again.
“Flaming Sun Monarch?”
The Ghost Sacrificial Monarch was caught off-guard by the remark. He couldn’t understand what Castor was saying.
Auston was also surprised. Even he noticed that something was amiss. He asked, “What’s going on?”
“Whoosh whoosh!”
“Swhoosh swhoosh swhoosh!”
Suddenly, the sound of the wind came from abyss passageway leading to the one hundred Abyss levels.
Huge Abyss Devil figures were descending slowly from above.
“Aschnaz!”
“Dawson!”
“Extermination Devil King!”
“Icestone King!”
“Night Devil King!”
“……”
The seven Devil Monarchs were shocked to find a horde of Abyss Devils descending toward them.
Looking up, Qin Lie was wearing an odd expression on his face as well.
No one knew why, but the space above their heads was filled with Great Lords of the Abyss before they knew it.
These Great Lords of the Abyss were all rulers of their respective Abyss levels. They were all at peak rank ten.
It was obvious that they caught wind of the battle at Flaming Sun Purgatory and came over to watch the show.
However, they couldn’t teleport directly into Flaming Sun Purgatory because the Galaxy Mirror had sealed it off completely. They had no choice but to fly over through the abyss passageway.
It just so happened that Castor, Qin Lie, and the seven Devil Monarchs were all inside the abyss passageway right now.
That was how they encountered each other.
“Is that the Flaming Sun Monarch?”
“He’s nine thousand meters tall!”
“This form, this power. He’s actually stronger than the seven Devil Monarchs before him!”
“Is he really the Flaming Sun Monarch? How is this possible? How did he obtain such amazing power?”
“Even Castor is only eight thousand meters tall!”
“Unbelievable!”
“Truly unbelievable!”
“……”
There were almost one hundred Great Lords of the Abyss gathered above Qin Lie, Castor, and the Devil Monarchs’ heads. They were all gossiping in astonishment.
Most of these Great Lords of the Abyss were only around six thousand meters tall. Only a few of them were seven thousand meters tall like Auston.
They were rulers of their Abyss levels, so they felt something the moment Castor charged into Flaming Sun Purgatory and engaged Qin Lie and the seven Devil Monarchs in battle.
They realized that the battle between Castor and the eight Devil Monarchs would affect the entire Abyss.
If Castor won, the Abyss would have a new master again—the Abyss Master.
All Abyss Devils had to obey the Abyss Master.
This was a battle that was tied to everyone’s future.
That was why they moved into the abyss passageway and traveled to Flaming Sun Purgatory. They all wanted to witness that historic moment.
They didn’t plan to interfere in the battle between Castor and the eight Devil Monarchs.
It was because they didn’t know who the ultimate victor would be. They had no wish to offend either side.
Their allegiance lay with the strongest Abyss Devil only.
“So that’s the Flaming Sun Monarch, he’s… as powerful as the rumors say!”
“No wonder he was able to create one miracle after another and transformed the Flaming Sun Abyss into a purgatory in just a short time.”
“Nine thousand meters? He actually has a real chance of becoming the Abyss Master!”
Most of these Great Lords of the Abyss had only heard of Qin Lie’s name. They had never seen him in their whole life.
That was why they were shocked to find that he was nine thousand meters tall.
Suddenly, they realized that Qin Lie’s successes thus far weren’t flukes at all. In fact, they were starting to feel that Qin Lie was Castor’s true rival, not the other seven Devil Monarchs!
“Only an Abyss Devil who can ignore the laws of the Abyss and create miracle after miracle has a chance of becoming the new Abyss Master! The seven senior Devil Monarchs had held their positions for millions of years already, but none of them came close to reaching that level. This means that that is as far as their bloodline can go.”
“If we are truly witnessing the birth of a new Abyss Master, then it has to be Castor or the Flaming Sun Monarch.”
“That has to be it!”
There were no fools around, they were all rulers in their own right. It only took them a couple of glances to understand what was going on.
In their eyes, Qin Lie and Castor were the only ones who could become the new Abyss Master.
Naturally, they ignored the seven Devil Monarchs completely and focused all their attention onto the two candidates.
