--- Chapter 153 ---
Heavenly Abode Mountain, Cloud's End Cliff.
Yu Long stood on the edge of the cliff and peeked below. He couldn't see the depth of Cloud's End Cliff, as if this place was a bottomless abyss.
If Yu Long hadn't read Against the God in his previous life, he would not have visited this shady place. Well, the Evil God's daughter lies deep inside this abyss.
"This place creeps the hell out of me." Jasmine appeared with a sour expression. "Just what is this cliff?"
"It radiates so much Darkness Devil Presence..."
Yu Long smiled and answered, "This is the place that Evil God wanted me to visit."
"Ah, so his daughter is here!" Jasmine nodded in realization. Since Evil God's wife is the Heaven Smiting Devil Emperor, their child should be half God and Devil Race.It's understandable to stay in such a dark place.
"Yes, but there is much more." Yu Long suddenly jumped in.
Jasmine's scarlet eyes widened in shock, "Oy!"
Yu Long grinned as he dived into the cliff, feeling the air become colder and darkness envelop him. The Cloud's End Cliff is forty thousand kilometers deep, and Yu Long jumped in without any preparation.
Soon, extreme dark energy tried to invade Yu Long's body and consciousness.
But how could this pitiful Yin(Darkness) energy affect Yu Long, who practiced [Art of Ghost] to the extreme?
BOOM!
Yu Long landed on the ground with an eruption.
He sent rubbles everywhere and sighed, "Phew, that was deeper than I thought."
"As expected, we are on a whole another dimension. The Cloud's End Cliff is actually the passage into this realm."
Yu Long patted the dust off his clothes and looked around, finding a flat land. Weirdly, this flat land seemingly extends endlessly for tens of thousands of kilometers in every direction.
"Hmm, that's weird. Was the sense of distance warped in this dimension?"
"Jasmine, do you know something about this?"
'"Jasmine?" Yu Long called her again because she didn't respond to him the first time.
Jasmine gritted her teeth and screamed, "You dummy!"
"Why did you jump all of a sudden? You make me worried!"
Yu Long smiled, "But I'm fine."
Jasmine snorted and crossed her arms, "Don't do that again in front of this princess."
"Fine, fine. Have any clue about my question earlier?"
"No."
"Eh, I thought you'd know something like this..."
"This princess is not your personal library of knowledge!"
'Well, you kinda are.' Yu Long thought to himself. Even though he received the Evil God's knowledge, it was lacking in the natural law of Primal Chaos.
Yes, Evil God barely scraped something for Yu Long.
ROAR!!
A heart-wrenching roar echoed in the abyss.
Yu Long activated his [Insect King's Vision] powered by [Art of Ghost]'s enhancement and saw a creature three hundred meters away from them.
It was one hundred and sixty-five meters tall, its head was 'extremely' wide, and it looked like a cross between a wolf and a bear. Its four limbs were thick and stout, and its head and body bristled with white fangs.
The sharp tips of those fangs shone with a hellish light that would send fear coursing through one's soul. A massive and long jet-black tail was arched overhead, and the end of the tail gleamed with the same cold light that a blade would.
"Interesting." That is all Yu Long could say at the moment.
Meanwhile, Jasmine was terrified.
"N-Nine Desolate Devil Fang!"
"So, that's the name of this cute creature." Yu Long rubbed his chin.
Jasmine's mouth twitched, "What part of this Primordial Devil Beast is cute? Damn it, I thought you lied about their existence in the Cloud's End Cliff."
"Really, Jasmine? You thought I was lying about something like this?" Yu Long couldn't help but roll his eyes.
"I always thought you were a liar," Jasmine grumbled in annoyance. "I will never trust a scoundrel."
"..." Yu Long.
He facepalmed and saw the Nine Desolate Devil Fang running toward them, "Anyway, it's just a puppy."
"Looks, the puppy is running toward us."
"What kind of puppy is that big!"
"Hey, don't discriminate! Sometimes size doesn't matter." Yu Long said righteously.
Jasmine wanted to smack Yu Long. Unfortunately, she can't because the enormous dog is already pouncing on him.
Yu Long stretched his hand casually and manipulated his bone, causing white bones to stick out of his skin.
As the bones fully out and merge into one, they become a comically large bone that dogs usually bite on.
Nine Desolate Devil Fang stopped awkwardly and sniffed something delicious.
Of course, it was delicious because Yu Long's bones are rich with vitality and profound strength. To make it even better, he infused [Ghostly Qi] and a bit of [Primordial Energy] into the bone.
"WOOF~!" Nine Desolate Devil Fang wagged its tail.
It sat down and caused dirt to fly everywhere.
"Good boy." Yu Long said with a little smile.
"..." Jasmine couldn't believe her eyes.
What kind of sorcery is this?!
Yu Long is the King of Monsters, which means he could understand Nine Desolate Devil Fang's actions. God knows how long the poor puppy has gotten trapped in this abyss, so he must be hungry.
He has tamed some mutated beasts in his previous life. It was a rare case and usually happened because the mutated beasts couldn't provide him with the preferred essence.
Nine Desolate Devil Beast slumped on the floor, chewing Yu Long's bone in delight.
Yu Long walked forward and stroked the devil puppy's head, "You must be lonely here, huh?"
Nine Desolate Devil Beast whimpered, nodding its head.
He sighed, "Evil God, you should have told me about your plan, man. I'm confused with your damn deeds."
Jasmine stayed quiet this whole time, still finding how Yu Long tamed this Primordial Devil Beast bizarre.
After Nine Desolate Devil Fang was satisfied, it nudged Yu Long.
"Hmm, you want me to follow you?" Yu Long tilted his head.
The Primordial Devil Beast nodded and turned around to the vast darkness.
Yu Long shrugged and followed Nine Desolate Devil Fang.
They encounter other Primordial Devil Beasts, but Yu Long gives them treats. They act like his loyal pets now.
Of course, not all Primordial Devil Beasts are reasonable. So Yu Long killed those beasts and turned them into an essence sphere for further research.
Three hours later.
Yu Long and his Primordial Devil Beasts' followers arrived at the field of flowers. It's not your ordinary flower field because every flower here is Netherworld Udumbara Flower!
Its stem and leaves are of a purplish black color and about three meters tall. The bloomed flower was a pretty and flirtatious bright purple color. On its petals lingered a light purple mist that carried the breath of the netherworld, and while that mist drifted, it still faintly let out the crying and laughing sounds of the nether ghosts.
Netherworld Udumbara Flower is an object of Yin and evil. It only grows in dark and cold lands.
It took an entire twenty-four years to bloom once. The flower withers three days after blooming, repeating the cycle.
It's reputed to be the most terrifying flower in existence. Approaching the flower will cause one's body to get corrupted by its sinister aura, which also damages one's soul.
At best, one would fall into a long-lasting coma. At worst, one would turn into the living dead. If one's profound strength is low, then one would immediately die.
One more crucial usage of the Netherworld Udumbara Flower is its ability to merge one soul with a new flesh. Yes, this flower is one of the necessary ingredients for Jasmine to create her new body!
"No way." Jasmine couldn't contain her amazement.
Yu Long shook his head and focused his gaze on the center of the flower field, discovering a soft white glow.
A young girl is sleeping there.
