Chapter 498: The Gate

Translator: Henyee Translations  Editor: Henyee Translations

Ould and Muld had jumped into the primal magma.

Why were they still alive? What about the demons behind them?

What…

Why were they all here?

It was the primal magma!

Even the bald demon was afraid of it.

They had all fallen into the magma, so how could they still be alive?

“Baldie, are you surprised? Isn’t this fun? I bet you didn’t see this coming!

“Your face is so hilarious!” Ould mocked him.

The other demons laughed at the bald demon, too. They had died once. The bald demon didn’t frighten them any more.

Moreover, they had the advantage now.

“I didn’t think you could come back from death. I feel happy for you. Come with me!” The bald demon acted as if nothing had happened.

He made the whole thing sound so light. Those demons’ lives were worthless to him. Dead or alive, they didn’t mean anything to the bald demon.

“Are you going to act like you haven’t done anything? Do you think that’s possible?

“We nearly died because we became your scouts. Don’t you realize how serious that is?” Muld said indignantly.

The others were as displeased as Muld was, but what could they do?

They wanted to tear the bald demon into pieces, but did they have the power to do so?

“To get through the obstacles, scouts were necessary. Should I have lied to you? Your effort provided us with a shortcut. It wasn’t futile!

“Why do you look so resentful?” the bald demon asked indifferently.

The look on his face was full of disdain. So what if they had returned?

They would only become his toy again.

He didn’t think they would return from death for a second time.

“I’m gonna kill you!” One of the demons wanted to attack the bald demon, but Muld stopped him.

As much as he hated the bald demon, now wasn’t the appropriate time to confront the latter because their savior was still here.

Muld thought, If he was displeased with the bald demon, he would have done something already, but he hasn’t, so there must be a reason behind it.

“If he hasn’t said anything, we shouldn’t do anything either. Behave yourself!” Muld reminded the other demon, who immediately calmed down.

He then gave Himmel Soan a little bow.

Himmel Soan only nodded without saying anything.

“Didn’t you want to kill me? Do it now!” The bald demon smirked.

He didn’t think the other demons had the ability to kill him. Although there were over thirty of them, it was just a disorderly mob.

This time, no one got angry at the bald demon because their savior was present at the scene.

If the bald demon really deserved to die, they didn’t need to do it themselves. In their eyes, he was a walking corpse.

Nobody would be scared of an already dead thing.

“Baldie, move aside. I’ll get them to the other side. It won’t take long. Once there, you’ll be on your own.” Himmel Soan walked up to the passageway.

The five formations were similar to the five in Stelladom.

Of the five places that made up the formation, Himmel Soan had only visited the Dusk Soul Forest. Through it, he had a rough understanding of other places.

He gained insights from none other than the formations.

The five formations were intricately related.

Of course, five people who knew formations could solve them together, but that wasn’t the ideal solution.

The five people could have different goals and might not be able to work as one.

Everybody thought they needed five members to solve the formation, but they had been mistaken.

If a person was capable enough to control the situation, they could solve all five formations at the same time.

That was what Himmel Soan did.

The door opened, showing the passageway on the other side.

“How’s that possible?!”

“He opened it all by himself!”

“I didn’t know that was doable!”

The bald demon seemed inspired as if he had had an epiphany. However, he wasn’t capable enough to see through Himmel Soan’s ability.

An epiphany?

Of course, Himmel Soan wouldn’t let that happen so easily.

He saw the bald demon as a scumbag who didn’t deserve to live. He was happy to waste the demon’s time.

“There. The door has opened. You can go and find your own rewards. It’s all up to you now.”

Himmel Soan let the demons he had saved look for their own chances.

That was all he would do for them.

Nothing more.

He wasn’t a man of no principles. He wouldn’t help them forever. He had his own business to attend to.

“You. Stay.”

He stopped Hirba, who tried to leave with the others.

Hirba had kicked his own group members into the magma. Of course, Himmel Soan wouldn’t let him pass.

“Why are you stopping me? I won’t give in that easily! Talking alone won’t keep me here!” Hirba said arrogantly.

He was intimidated by Himmel Soan’s capability, but great rewards could be waiting on the other side.

The others all went through the door. Why couldn’t he?

The more demons that crossed, the fewer rewards there would be.

Hirba didn’t want to scrape for leftovers. He chose to confront Himmel Soan. He believed he could force his way through.
