Chapter 958: Gu Chen
"You came to die?" She smiled, then sighed dejectedly, "Unfortunately, I’m already leaving. How about I pay you all a visit sometime in the near future to send you to the afterlife? That works for you, right?"
Before her words finished echoing, the Infernal Demons had attacked. Unfortunately, they didn’t find their target because she had already disappeared without a trace.
Rip!
A moment later, the void was ripped apart by two claws and a figure, twice the size of other infernal devils, walked out. It was also cloaked in dark fire which made it impossible to see its features.
The other Infernal Devils fell on one knee and echoed, "We respectfully greet your majesty Scacarthus!"
"She left?" a deep voice sounded from under the cloak of dark fire.
"Yes, your majesty. Please punish us as we weren’t able to stop her." the Infernal Devils shouted.
"Heh, you would have achieved impossible if you had been able to." the voice scoffed, "Capture someone and find out why she had appeared here."
"Yes, your majesty." All Infernal Devils captured the leaders of different groups and despite them saying they were willing to tell them everything truthfully, the devils did a brutal soul search and soon reported their findings.
"Tsk, another Inheritor has appeared." Scacarthus’s annoyed voice sounded. Then a black hand, covered in countless triangular scales appeared and pointed at the realm barrier.
BOOM!
A beam of condensed dark, infernal flame shot out and burned a hole into it.
"You all need to find and kill the Inheritor. If you fail to do so, I will ravage your races." Scacarthus said.
Understanding he was saying this to them, all the group leader’s expressions turned ugly, but they didn’t hesitate and ordered their juniors to do as he said, "Go."
The juniors didn’t mind and in fact felt excited because Scacarthus had given them the opportunity to enter the Chaos Void realm without dying in the process.
Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!
One after another, their souls left their bodies and they rushed into the hole in the realm barrier.
A moment later, only one group’s juniors were left outside—Red-Scaled Rhinos.
"You all go in." Scacarthus ordered. Immediately, the Rhino Elder and others, who were too strong to enter the realm, felt their heart sink in despair.
However, they also didn’t hesitate. Gritting their jaws, they left their bodies and entered the hole.
However...
Bang! Bang! Bang!
Except for the juniors, everyone else’s souls exploded before they could enter the realm.
Slowly, the hole closed and just like it had happened with the human woman, an energy fluctuation barreled towards Scacarthus.
Just as it reached him, the Infernal Fire blazed and burned it down.
"If that human inheritor appears within ten years, inform me first, then kill everyone here and capture him." As his voice fell, he disappeared from the place.
"Yes, Your Majesty." The Infernal Devils roared before they glanced at the group leaders of all races, "No one is to leave this place before the human returns or the ten years are over. If you try to do so, you’ll be killed. Is that understood?"
"Yes, Esteemed Infernals." Everyone nodded, they had no choice but to because they weren’t strong enough to offend them or not agree to their conditions.
...
Chaos Dream Realm was incredibly large. Some said it was larger than a hundred galaxies combined and some it was as large as a small sector. And the smallest sector in the universe had over a thousand galaxies.
So no matter which one was true, this was an undeniable fact that the realm was incredibly vast.
It had countless worlds, both small and big, with differing civilizations. Some were very primitive while some were very advanced, be it in terms of technology or cultivation.
One such world was the world Max found himself in. It was called Azure Continent because save for some small islands, it only had one landmass: The Azure Continent.
It was extremely big, at least multiple hundred times bigger the size of planet Earth. Fortunately, though, the civilization here wasn’t primitive, but one he had read a lot about back on earth—Cultivation Civilization.
Though Cultivation was a broad term. Anything that could be improved by efforts was a kind of cultivation. Thus, the mages could also be called Cultivators, though he hadn’t heard anyone address as such until now.
In this world, the cultivation was the proper one, the one he had read about in eastern fantasy novels.
There were two major cultivation stages, Mortal stage and Spirit stage.
The mortal stage had five minor stages or more commonly called, realms:
These five realms were:
Skin Refinement
Muscle Refinement
Blood Cleansing
Bone Strengthening
Marrow Cleansing.
The second major cultivation stage, Spirit Stage, had four realms:
Sky Ascension
Golden Core
Nascent Soul
And Void Traversal.
The reason Max got all this knowledge about this world as soon as he arrived was because he was transmigrated into the body of a recently diseased young master of a minor cultivation family in the Redwood City.
Unlike when he was transmigrated into original Max’s body upon dying on Earth, he wasn’t in disbelief or had a hard time accepting reality because since the hazy figure, who he believed was the remnant thought of Lust Overlord Bloodline’s owner, had sent his soul to this Chaos Dream Realm, either he could act here in his soul form or would be given a body to occupy.
Upon waking up in this young man’s body, he had scoured his memories and found out everything the guy knew.
His name was Gu Chen, a nineteen years old man, the third son of Gu Family’s patriarch who had, unfortunately, died along with his second eldest son when the beast tide erupted in a forest just 50 miles away from the Redwood City.
In his immediate family, there were eight members.
The eldest brother, his wife, their three years old daughter, deceased second brother’s widow, two unmarried sisters, mother and a concubine.
There were two more sisters, but since they were married away, according to the Gu family traditions, they couldn’t be counted as immediate family members.
Apart from them, there were about thirty more people in the Gu family, one was his uncle’s family of five and the others were descendants of his grandfather’s brother. Since they shared the same origin blood, they were also his uncle, aunts and brother and sisters.
After assimilating Gu Chen’s memories, and feeling his bloodline being replaced with the Lust Overlord Bloodline, he did two things.
First, he decided not to worry about Rima and his other loved ones back home until he returned there, and second, he told himself:
"This body doesn’t have Gu Chen’s soul nor his bloodline. Therefore, it is no longer Gu Chen of the Gu family, it is me, Max."
After saying this, his eyes gleamed with intense lust and desire as Gu Chen’s mother, his father’s sexy concubine, his sister-in-laws and his sisters’ beautiful image flashed in his mind.
"Though they aren’t my real family members, I’ll treat them as though they are. After all, they are all so sweet and loving." He muttered and licked his lips.
