The city's night clear blue sky leaves the ball of shining blue moon star hanging on the sky.
Around the middle city of barak, all of the powerful figures stayed their night. "Tomorrow will be the day that brat will die…" The guy from the white tiger clan said, he suddenly feels the air around him turned cold he moved to the windows area.
That's when a powerful roar of lightning struck the sky, the lights around his room went out. "What's happening—" He stopped talking when he saw his shadow was been overshadowed behind him a black silhouette was seen.
"The ancient beast clans of the Sirius heaven world, I will visit all of them one by one, until none of you are alive" Nexus voice snapped full of rage.
"W-Who are you?! Show yourself right now!!" he said in a trembling voice.
"Since you will die, I let you know just this one time, I am The Emperor Nexus of Dragon Night"
!!!
He was surprised by what he just heard it feels like the ghost from the past hunting him.
"No, It can't be how did you survi—" Before even completing his sentence, his head rolled in the ground without even seeing nexus moving an inch.
Thud—
His body also follows to the ground.
He streched his hand and uttered a word "Devour" around the corpse a devouring black maw, and countless a dark-red eyes appeared and swallowed it completely.
He flew back to the inn and sit in the lotus position to cultivate.
At the morning, the day they will set out to the underworld located farthest south of the forbidden land.
They went to their carriage and started their long journey.
"Didn't you hear the gossips since earlier this morning?"
"You mean the sudden disappearance of that guy from the white tiger clan"
"Yeah… maybe he was…" Rosaline the woman who moves like a shadow, she imitates the dead.
"HAHAHA!! That serves him right, he was too arrogant just because he's from white tiger sect but I hope nothing happens on this trip" Drave laughed and said because the only conflict before he disappeared was with them.
two weeks had passed since they were traveling, Based on the map they have, they halfway through their trip.
So, In the night they decided to call off the night in the ruined city they found along the way.
"It's weird, it seems the map was a old version" Rex a bald head man said in frustration and threw the map away.
"There's no ruined city in the map, that damn merchant, I got scammed"
"Relax, rex"
"It's just around the corner, don't let that get to you, Just rest and fill up our stomach" Rosaline said gently to calm him.
They encircled themselves and brix the one who does all the cooking in their group.
Burning a large piece of meat in the bonfire.
Nexus looking ahead the starry sky in boredom, hoping to stretched his bones.
"I'm just going to get some fresh air around here, please don't look for me" He waved them off.
"Umm okay… I'm going to eat your share sir" Rex said.
Nexus heard it and nodded from afar.
In the ruined city, a city that got wrecked to the ground and the whole structure wasn't ordinary. Nexus digged into his memories that contains the entire imperial library.
It was stated that the great wasteland was once a battlefield of immortals from the past, one of the ancestors traveled around when the war happened and luckily he survived the catastrophe.
This one was an ancient ruined city, by walking around, he found a large door entrance.
The door was unscathed like nothing was ever made to this point.
He walked slowly towards the huge door.
He pushed it but it won't budge from spiritual energy.
So he tried his best to pushed by his physical strength.
Cracked—
Air started to run like a wild beast towards him, after all it took from countless years to finally opened this door.
Inside the huge door, a hundred meter tall statue of an unknown immortal was found orderly.
"This is somewhat familiar but at the same time" Nexus narrowly his eyes and focused on the small details on the statue "It's an imitation of the immortals from the immortal world"
"You've got a keen eyes kid" The dragon soul woke up from his slumber.
"Your right this bunch of statues is called fallen immortals, the one's whose been opposing the immortal world from back then"
"From the immortal world? then you know them senior"
"Yes, they are a pretty strong individual but I'm strong too" The dragon soul exclaimed while flexing his strength excitedly.
"Then shouldn't we stay away from this thing senior…" while walking he noticed a throne and an immortal statue in the middle that gives of an creepy but powerful vibe.
Just by looking at it, its sends a chills down to his spine.
"Kid let's leave, hurry!!" The dragon soul shouted and worried.
Cracked—
A space was tore apart.
In that moment a space distortion appeared that could suck away any living beings.
But nexus was sharp he immediately transferred all of his imperial dragon qi to his weight to anchored to the floor.
Cracked—
He run while avoiding the space distortion.
He makes sure he don't get caught by it.
Thud—
He closed the huge door and walked away the site while catching his breath.
"Kid, we almost died and thanks to your insane response, we have survived." The dragon soul said it gently and praised his fast instincts.
"You over praised me senior, and it's all thanks to you, if you didn't say that I will probably in the other side of the world." He said it and didn't take all the credit.
After that they laughed and walked towards the camp.
zzzzz—
Each was drunk and laying in the bed made in woods.
The mercenary had a great time filling their stomach with meat and wine.
Nexus glanced at the seperate table, a white cloth and there was a writing "Sir, please fill your belly up if your hungry, I personally seperate this since we have a pig in our group and there's a wine on the side, if you want a better sleep… Just drink this till you're drunk. Hehe —Rosaline"
"This… Thank you. I will do just like you said" His voice was kinda shaky and emotional.
He ate his meat portion and drink till his drunk.
Through his blurry eyesight there's a group of golden core cultivator flying from above the sky.
"From the white tiger clan?" He laughed hysterically in drunken state "You force yourself to your grave don't blame me." He said it and disappeared.
They are surprised and confused "What!! Where did he go?" one of the guys said.
Arghh—
Scream and blood spilled from the opened flesh that came from their behind.
!!!
"He's behind?!!" He looked behind.
Arghh—
"No, he's here!!" He looked forward.
Until he could no longer track his enemy with his own eyes, as he slaying thw group one by one. From hundred people went down to ten people.
"What's happening…" In confusion he ordered his group to scattered, stay far away from each other.
Even that didn't work, it can't even trace his location, the speed of how fast nexus was moving was insane.
It's a one sided massacre.
"Since it's came to this, let's die together you demon!!" They're about to suicide but… In instant they're on their knees without even knowing.
Heads bowed down. A heavy steps walking towards them in the sky.
"I won't let you do that, I will let you know that you wished you'd never been exist" He whispered and smirked but his word carries a powerful message.
Nexus stretches his arms to form a spiritual dragon arms, he went up to the clear blue sky.
Starting torturing them one by one, by the a pinky sized heaven-devouring qi.
Their screams till their lungs burst out.
In the small town of the great wasteland, others saw an figures floating at the sky and tormenting the others throughout the night.
Since then they thought the Demon King has descended into the world.
After the long night, nexus went back to the camp and slept.
On the afternoon of the morning, Nexus opened his eyes and saw the ceiling of the carriage.
"Are you awake now? I thought you are dead already" Rex said jokingly and laughed.
"The wine hit you hard" Jake said and smile gently.
And they burst into laughter.
When nexus saw them laughing together he smile at them.
Days an nights had passed, They saw the city gate from afar.
When arrived inside the city, it was totally different from the people who said it's lawless just because of the city associated with the word "Underworld".
The streets light where colorful, the buildings are buzzing with people.
It was the most beautiful and it was the most orderly city in the world.
The reason behind this was the lord of the underworld city.
However behind the scenes there was a reason why it was called underworld city.
In the dark alley of the city.
