Fu Chen's head felt like he was electrocuted to the point that he had trouble maintaining consciousness. Fu Chen had felt this sensation before, when he first opened his Earth ring, but compared to now, the sensation back then was as if it was nothing.


Fu Chen wanted to shout, but his mouth could not be moved because of the Dou Huang style, the contents of Fu Chen's head seemed to swirl so he could not think of anything. Fu Chen could only grimace and his body trembled violently, the incoming memories making his head feel like exploding.


"This bastard, his actions are beyond my expectations.." Feng Bian muttered softly, not expecting that Dou Huang to go this far.


It took quite some time until Dou Huang finished giving some of his memories to Fu Chen. Fu Chen who no longer had any energy collapsed, sweat soaked his body to make the ground where he lay wet.


Fu Chen's gaze was blank for a while, his hunting breath witnessing the dream-like-looking memories. Slowly as his consciousness began to gather, Fu Chen immediately stared at the Dou Huang figure with a complicated face.


Never imagined in his head so far that humans can split mountains like cutting cakes. The picture he had just received was too terrifying, it was hard for him to believe that it was all real.


The memory shows a sea of humans fighting each other, there are also some large animals that participate in the war. The sky became dark because it was covered with clouds and smoke, and among the sea of humans there were hundreds of thousands of other humans fighting in the sky.


Their fight was more terrifying, a single stray strike from them could have thousands of humans underneath scattering into the air until their bodies separated.


Fu Chen clenched his fiercely shivering body while closing his eyes tightly.he wanted to remove all those images from his head yet he was helpless.


"Dou Huang, don't you think your actions are excessive? What if his mental state gets disturbed?" Feng Bian looked at Dou Huang sharply, slightly dislikeful of his reckless demeanor.


"Ho... So you're worried about this kid?" Dou Huang sneered thinly.


Feng Bian cursed inwardly hearing him, then said, "Curtain, what is your true purpose?"


"You will find out when this child has calmed down," Dou Huang approached Feng Bian, "You want to bet? I'll help you recover your energy core if you win, how?"


"Don't joke Dou Huang, I know very well that you've never played with a human life, have you been affected after meeting him as well?" Feng Bian smiled faintly.


"Hahaha. Come on, don't hook me up with him. What's wrong with me being cooped up for thousands of years looking for a little entertainment?"


"Heh well... Then what do you want from me?"


Dou Huang smiled faintly, "It's easy, I just want you to do.." Dou Huang grinned widely after whispering a sentence to Feng Bian.

Fu Chen took nearly four hours to regain his composure. That memory he had yet to fully comprehend but there were some things that Fu Chen understood.


From that memory it is said that the world is actually three layers, although it is difficult to believe it but the information can be proven from the picture he saw.


The world of the first layer had the name Upper World, Fu Chen did not find much information regarding this world, but it was said that the Upper World was a residence for saint beasts like Gods and Magical beasts.


While the second layer is known as the Mortal world, a place where humans live with all their greed. A person in the Mortal world can also ascend to the Upper world if they have qualified and obtained a pointer to get there.


The name of the foundation layer world had actually been frequently mentioned by people but Fu Chen really did not expect that the world was true. The world is nothing but Hell! A place where human souls will live after their death.


Fu Chen slightly wondered if that Upper world was actually Heaven, as there was no information whatsoever about it. The Upper World is only said to be a peaceful world but there is a great evil behind it all.


There was actually one more piece of information in Fu Chen's head but he didn't want to think about it at the moment, Fu Chen was worried that the information would disturb him mentally because the picture given was too terrifying.


Moreover, his mental now has not fully recovered after losing his family. To be honest, Fu Chen actually felt so tired. If he could, he desperately wanted to escape from this world and live quietly but responsibility remained responsibility, Fu Chen did not want everything to end miserably like his family.


He must be able to solve all his problems and after that, he will be free to do anything. At least that's what motivates him.


All of this pressure was extremely heavy for a nine-year-old like Fu Chen.


"Hua...look at Little Fox, it seems like I won this gamble, even she woke up sooner than I thought." Dou Huang smiled broadly as he stroked his beard.


"Don't be happy just yet.we still don't know if his mentality is okay or not!"


"Hehe. It looks like you're still underestimating the boy. Well.your little brain must not believe what he saw…"


Fu Chen circulated his gaze slowly, his head still feeling dizzy. Fu Chen drew closer towards Dou Huang and Feng Biang once found the two were still there.


"Haha... How are you, boy? You're okay, right?" asked Dou Huang while smiling knots.


"May I rest for a moment?" fu Chen asked.


"Ah sure, please..." Dou Huang smiled gently, "So what do you think? Wasn't my youth amazing? Well, it's a little creepy to see but not many people are capable of it, so e-huh?"


"Groooks!" Fu Chen snored.


"Dam! What the fuck are you?! Your ancestors are talking! Listen well to basic not knowing yourself!"

"So.. are you awake?" dou Huang asked as he crossed his hands in front of his chest, his eyes twitching slightly at Fu Chen's disrespectful behavior.


Fu Chen nodded slowly as he rubbed his eyes, to be honest his sleep was not sound at all, he continued to be imagined with a terrible figure that was in his mind.


"Hm. no need to force yourself, continue your rest if your head still hurts." Dou Huang gave a suggestion.


Fu Chen shook his head slowly, then said, "Is it true that this world exists more than one?"


Dou Huang slightly raised an eyebrow, "What you saw earlier was the truth, whether you want to believe it or not, one day you will realize it."


"Then..the figure dressed all in white with ten strange creatures that follow him, who is he really? He's dressed like a good man, but what he's doing is heinous."


"Oh... So he caught your attention a little bit? The background is quite complicated, I deliberately didn't give you any information about that person so you wouldn't think too much about it, but it looks like I was wrong."


Dou Huang said the person was a creature from Hell that managed to crawl up to the Upper world. Dou Huang did not want to explain what the man was doing until he reached the upper world.


But, not long after that person had reached the Upper world, he had started to wreak havoc everywhere.


That person loved to pit the inhabitants of the Upper world, until on one occasion he stole one of the forbidden techniques possessed by the Sacred Magical Beasts in that world.


As a result, he was hunted to the point that there was nowhere for him to hide in the Upper world. Since there was no other choice the person decided to escape to the Mortal world, and all the Magical Beasts that were chasing after him were forced to stop, there is a rule that prohibits the beings of the Upper world from descending into the mortal world or Hell.


However, among the hundreds of Magical Beasts, there was one of them who descended into the mortal world. The Magical Beast was none other than Feng Bian, himself back then had been incited with that person's words, making him easily comply with his request.


The moment the Magical Beasts found out, some of them immediately volunteered to hunt down Feng Bian. They didn't want the Magical animal's name to get dirty if one day Feng Bian became a human pet.


After escaping from the Upper world it turned out that person did not remain silent in the Mortal world. He had a strong ambition to rule over the Mortal world and build a great power that would attack the Upper world.


Utilizing his position in Hell, that person managed to build a great power that united a portion of the Mortal and Hell worlds. But, at the same time the Gods also sent the mortals of the Mortal world to stop that person's goal.


With their power, the Gods agreed and sent a Magical Beast to hand over an heirloom and a book that could seal the man.


"But the title of God they have is not as holy as you think. The science of sealing the person is not perfect, the seal will open on its own at any given time. And that man will rise again with a greater grudge."


Fu Chen pondered again, he now slightly understood why such a terrible war could occur. Fu Chen suddenly recalled Dou Huang's words about the mission, it seemed like Fu Chen could guess what mission Dou Huang would give.


"So, what kind of people who live in hell are they? Why do you just explain that they are the souls of the dead?"


Dou Huang let out a long sigh, "That's.I'll tell you, but not now-!"


"Why are you so convoluted like that? What a hard time it is to say that those who live in hell are Devils!" Feng Biang interrupted Dou Huang's remark, he was quite annoyed to have to remember the old events he had experienced.


"What are you talking about? Aren't you thinking about this kid's condition?!" snapped at Dou Huang when he was shocked to hear Feng Bian say, he had purposely held him back from earlier because he was worried about Fu Chen.


"Devil…?" Fu Chen nodded slowly.
