Chapter 890: Purplefire Fiend King



After putting away the incomplete divine flag, Valefor continued his adventure in the Purpleflame Territory.

However, he didn't seem to be exploring blindly; he had a clear destination in mind.

Even so, it also didn't stop him from delaying his trip whenever he came across an object of high value, such as the [Decamillenium-Year Blazewood].

The [Decamillenium-Year Blazewood] wasn't common. In fact, it was very rare, considering its quality.

However, since the Purpleflame Territory's surface was mainly just scorched earth and black ash, it was very easy to spot [Decamillenium-Year Blazewood] as long as it was in the area. After all, any tree standing after enduring such destructive fire and the long passage of time had to be [Decamillenium-Year Blazewood].

Unfortunately, besides [Decamillenium-Year Blazewood], the Purpleflame Territory didn't seem to have any other valuable resources. At the very least, there didn't seem to be anything else on the surface.

Valefor spent a full day of travel, but he only came across two other [Decamillenium-Year Blazewood Trees].

On the other hand, he had gathered millions of Fire Fiends. They mindlessly followed him after he suppressed their hostile behaviors with his slaughter aura.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

Although there wasn't a single divine-rank Fire Fiend among them, their military force couldn't be underestimated due to their sheer numbers. Moreover, this was only a tiny fraction of their kind.

As Valefor made his way northward, the [Eternal Purpleflame] and Fire Fiends became increasingly concentrated and numerous.

'This should be the place.'

Valefor stopped a few steps short of an edge. Just ahead of him was an enormous crater overflowing with the [Eternal Purpleflame]. Such a high concentration of [Eternal Purpleflame] couldn't be found anywhere else in the Purpleflame Territory.

With [Eternal Purpleflames] as vast as the sea, the region came to be called the Sea of Eternal Purpleflame.

It was the most dangerous region in the Purpleflame Territory.

None of the Great Devils of Gehenna had ever been able to set foot inside such a fiery region of purple fire.

It wasn't the most dangerous region for nothing.

After all, the Sea of Eternal Purpleflame was the original point of impact, where the Skymagia Star Kingdom's Royalty had unleashed the full power of their [Eternal Purpleflame].

The number of Fire Fiends in the Sea of Eternal Purpleflame alone exceeded a hundred million. Such a fearsome army of vengeful spirits definitely had the power to bring death and destruction to the lands visited by it.

However, the Fire Fiends could not leave the Purpleflame Territory.

While the countless vengeful souls of the dead were reborn as Fire Fiends by the [Eternal Purpleflame], they were also bound by it. They could only thrive where the [Eternal Purpleflame] burned.

Valefor only had one purpose for coming to such a place - To tame that concentrated power for his own benefit and convenience.

"Purplefire Fiend King, come out and greet your guest!" Valefor arrogantly demanded. His deafening roar resounded throughout the Sea of Eternal Purpleflame. It caused the billowing flames to flicker like a strong gust of wind had attempted to extinguish them. As if the Sea of Eternal Purpleflame was angered by such a vain and foolish attempt to snuff out the eternal, its surface erupted with a towering pillar of flames.

From within the towering flame pillar, a unique Fire Fiend emerged, furious.

Compared to most humanoid Fire Fiends, the unique Fire Fiend was thrice as big, possessed large demonic-like antlers on its head, and its ghostly emerald eyes burned with intelligence. However, its most distinguishing trait was its divine aura; it was a divine-rank Fire Fiend.

"Human! How bold of you to come here and make demands of this King! Even death cannot cure your foolishness! I want you to kneel and beg for death!" the Purplefire Fiend King roared.

Although the Purplefire Fiend King could see Valefor's undamaged body in the face of the [Eternal Purpleflame], it had slipped past his mind due to his towering rage and hatred.

"Capture him!" the Purplefire Fiend King commanded.

Swoosh!

The surrounding [Eternal Purpleflame] billowed in agitation as countless Fire Fiends emerged.

They all charged at Valefor blindly with rage and hate, unaware and unconcerned of the unsurmountable gap in power between them. Even the Fire Fiends who followed him to the Sea of Eternal Purpleflame turned against him due to the order.

However, Valefor didn't show the slightest surprise by the rear attack.

The Purplefire Fiend King was the king of all Fire Fiends. He was the lord of the old Purpleflame Territory, and the Fire Fiends were all his subjects.

Naturally, the Fire Fiends all listened to him.

"Get lost!" Valefor barked.

A powerful sound wave was instantly generated, sweeping outwards and blowing away the incoming Fire Fiends like a big blast of wind.

The power of the Asura Law infused in his very voice ensured that creatures of such meager power had no hope of getting close to him. Even so, the Fire Fiends weren't deterred by the increased distance or the absolute power difference.

They resumed their charge without fear, seemingly immune to Valefor's slaughter aura.

The searing pain of soul burning from the [Eternal Purpleflame] had robbed all their intelligence and reduced them to mindless beasts over the years, but their strong desire for revenge together with their king remained true.

The Purplefire Fiend King's command was absolute.

"Wait!"

The big horde of Fire Fiends immediately halted their charge at the Purplefire Fiend King's sudden command.

It was only now that the Purplefire Fiend King finally realized the [Eternal Purpleflame] did not affect Valefor.

"Who the hell are you, Human? Why do you want to see me?" the Purplefire Fiend King frowned, forcefully suppressing his endless rage and hatred.

Out of the billions of lifeforms that had been burned to death by the [Eternal Purpleflame], the Purplefire Fiend King had been the only one to hold onto his reasoning and not give in to the pain of soul burning.

Even so, it wasn't easy to suppress his rage and hatred, if not for his newfound curiosity.

"Who I am is not important," Valefor coolly stated.

"What's important is what I can offer you an opportunity to break away from the shackles

binding you to this land and leave to take revenge on the people who brought death to your

home and people."

"So, are you interested?" Valefor calmly asked shortly after.
