Bank of the Universe - Chapter 374

Chapter 374: Honest And Reliable Master

“They gathered all the resources of hell together to craft 108 Demon God Pillars?” Li Xiandao frowned and asked.

What was the point in gathering resources to craft the demon god pillars? Why not let people cultivate with it.

“Not all, just a large portion.” The demon explained.

“Can’t you just use them to cultivate?” Li Xiandao didn’t understand.

“We needed to lay out a large formation to split Hell and Celestial World to develop independently and so that they couldn’t disturb us.” The demon explained.

Li Xiandao finally understood everything.

“So, did you succeed?” Li Xiandao asked

“We did but at the final moment, a few people revealed it and experts from Celestial World came to destroy the 108 Demon God Pillars.” The demon said.

“Were the pillars destroyed?” Li Xiandao asked. No one in the Nine Skies and Ten Lands knew about this period of history. This was something that occured between just Celestial World and Hell.

The Ten Thousand Country Book Depository didn’t have any records of it and this was also the first time Li Xiandao heard of this. He didn’t expect the Celestial World to be so chaotic.

Hell wasn’t happy with Celestial World, so what about Buddha World, Spirit World, Monster World, and Demon World?

Li Xiandao suddenly felt like Celestial World wasn’t an ordinary place.

“A part of it was destroyed. This is also the secret I was talking about.” The demon said seriously.

Li Xiandao was interested. Had the 108 Demon God Pillars really been destroyed?

“The people from Celestial World destroyed a corner of the formation and caused 12 pillars to fly away.” The demon said.

Li Xiandao’s eyes lit up, “You know where the 12 are?”

The demon nodded, “I do because I was flung away along with the pillars. But I was unlucky and became sealed. I was separated from the Demon God Pillars.”

Li Xiandao was disappointed, “So, you don’t know where they are?”

Li Xiandao felt really tempted after he heard that the 12 pillars had been smacked away.

A large amount of Hell’s resources were used to craft 108 Demon God Pillars, and 12 of them had fallen off.

He didn’t have to get all 12; just one would definitely help improve Li Xiandao’s cultivation.

This was Hell’s resources.

It was on the same level as Celestial but was totally different from places like Nine Skies and Ten Lands.

Celestial World couldn’t handle Hell Sky and could only plot to make them their in-name subordinates.

So, the energy of the 12 Demon God Pillars was definitely very significant to Li Xiandao now.

But it was a shame that the demon and the Demon God Pillars were separated.

The demon could tell that Li Xiandao was disappointed and he panicked, “I know where they fell. They’re in Great Sky and Heaven Sky. As for how many there are, I’m not sure.”

Li Xiandao sighed in disappointment, “Do you know how big Great Sky and Heaven Sky are? It is hard for me to release you with just this bit of news.”

“Also, I also have…” The demon shouted nervously. Although he gritted his teeth, he didn’t dare to vent his anger.

“Continue.” Li Xiandao said calmly. Of course, he knew that the demon had ways. A demon of Hell… how could he not notice the Demon God Pillars?

He could live for 100,000 years and still be so lively. He was definitely very strong.

“I can sense the aura. Release me and I’ll help you find it. Once I do it’s all yours.” The demon said.

“But… If I release you and you don’t come back, then what should I do?” Li Xiandao asked.

“No, I am an honest person. When I was in Hell, my nickname was reliable gentleman.” The demon said firmly.

“What a coincidence, I am also a reliable and honest handsome boss. So, we are of the same kind, so do you think I will let you go?” Li Xiandao smiled.

The demon sighed helplessly and knew that Li Xiandao couldn’t be tricked. He asked after keeping silent for a moment, “What do you want before you will release me?”

“Hand over your soul source.” Li Xiandao said calmly.

“Impossible!!!” The demon roared in rage. Handing the soul source over to him was equivalent to sacrificing his own life.

If Li Xiandao wasn’t happy and smashed his soul source, then he would die. How could he agree to this?

“Since that is the case, then is there no more room for discussion?” Li Xiandao asked.

“Definitely not the soul source. ” The demon was firm.

“Seven, take this demon to the treasury and put him in the lowest layer. Take him out after 30,000 years.” Li Xiandao said simply.

Seven walked forwards.

Da da da!

Seven’s footsteps announced the countdown to the end of the demon’s freedom.

The demon was so scared that his soul source was trembling.

“Is this fun?” The demon asked Li Xiandao in anger.

“Is there a point in threatening me?” When the demon heard 30,000 years, he was stunned. He started to tear up to show his reluctance.

“Isn’t it just the soul source? I am in soul form with no ears and I must have heard incorrectly.” The demon changed his attitude.

Li Xiandao smiled at Seven. He knew that the demon couldn’t handle 30,000 years of being locked up.

“So, you misheard.” Li Xiandao was shocked.

“Right, I misheard.” The demon laughed. He had to agree with Li Xiandao and could only swallow his tears.

“Now let me ask you, are you willing to hand over your soul source?” Li Xiandao asked simply.

The demon sighed helplessly, “Yes, I am willing.”

“Okay, then I can release you. I hope that you don’t play with me. I have a bad temper… Do you understand?” Li Xiandao tapped the box and said.

“I wouldn’t dare.” The demon was afraid. He was just meat and if Li Xiandao took a blade to cut him, he would give as much as he wanted.

After Li Xiandao put on his mask, he opened the jade box.

Hong!

The demon headed out in excitement and turned into a giant ball of demonic energy. He then transformed into a white-haired demon but wasn’t in a soul state.

The demon saw Li Xiandao right away.

He didn’t dare to do anything. He had tried before and Li Xiandao was just too strong.

“Where is your soul source?” Li Xiandao reached out.

The demon gritted his teeth and picked a part of his source to pass to Li Xiandao.

After he left the source, the demon’s body dimmed. This was a core part of his soul and once he was destroyed, it would be fatal.

“Don’t worry, let’s make a deal.” Li Xiandao looked at the soul source and didn’t take it. He looked at the demon and said.

“What deal?” The demon looked at Li Xiandao with a curious expression.

“You help me find the 12 Demon God Pillars and once I get them, I will return this piece to you and you will also get freedom.” Li Xiandao threw him a bit.

“Can I trust you?” The demon was suspicious.

“I am an honest and reliable boss. Don’t worry.” Li Xiandao nodded firmly.

Why did his words sound so fake to the demon?
