Lord Of Hell

The De Clan"s rise in power became after a finding of a G.o.dly object in their treasure hunt, which was needed by an unknown traveller who was looking for that particular object, the person was able to help the De Clan nurture great talents in the Dark element as repayment. The person also left various heavenly artefacts that can help the clan, just in case a calamity was to befall them.

The powerless De Clan back then couldn"t do anything facing against this powerful person, and can only nod to his terms even though the De Clan had no understanding of the found G.o.dly Object, they knew if they were to keep that object, it would only end up as a calamity for them so therefore, it was a profitable business for both sides.

Naturally, the rise of the De clan was a surprise to the other clans in the continent, some thought they have got a backing of a Saint clan but no one dared to comment as any talks about saint clans are a taboo, only one of the strongest or someone who is at the peak of the Heavenly Extinction Realm will be able to hear into the details of a saint clan.

Inside the De Clan, the elders of the De Clan just brought in a Heavenly artefact for the Patriarch to have a look at the Heavenly artefact that they have just found from a treasure hunt.

"Patriarch, we have found this Heavenly artefact that seems to be giving a dark aura, I am sure this would be helpful for our young master" one of the elders politely said while handing over the artefact.

The patriarch of the De clan took the artefact carefully in his hands and started to a.n.a.lyse it. The artefact looked like a small cauldron, it was black in colour and the lid of the cauldron had a skeleton symbol.

The patriarch opened the lid, and he can feel the strong dark aura inside, inside the lid was a thick dark gluey substance, the patriarch took a dip of it in his thumb and had a taste.

"Amazing!!! Amazing!! Just a tiny bit of the substance and I can feel the increase of my Dark Qi. This will be a great aid for De Fan, just where did you guys find this?" The patriarch asked the elders looking excited.

The elders who saw the excited look of the patriarch was feeling glad that they have made the right decision to bring this artefact to the patriarch instead of auctioning it since most of the treasure hunting objects are given to auction.

This is also one of the reasons why the De clan is one of the powerful in the continent, in terms of strength the De Clan can be the third but in terms of financial power, it is nowhere behind the rest of the top two clans.

"Reply to Patriarch, the object was found in Ghostfort" one of the elders replied.

"This was found in the forbidden grounds?" The patriarch"s expression instantly changed when he heard the elders.

"How many losses were they?" The patriarch asked.

"They were around 15 losses." one of the elders said.

The patriarch couldn"t help but shake his head when he heard this, because fifteen people died in the process of finding this treasure.

The Ghostfort is one of the dangerous forbidden grounds across multiple continents, usually cultivators from all over the continent will enter the forbidden grounds for knowledge and seek for treasure but at the same time it is a place full of monsters and demon beasts, so whenever someone goes to explore the forbidden grounds, one has to be very powerful otherwise, they will end up as meat for the monsters or the beasts around there.

"Send my condolences to the family of the fifteen, and make a contribution for the loss to the affected families, regardless it was a worth trip as this is an amazing object." the patriarch said after a moment of silence.

"Yes Patriarch" few of the elders left to carry out the task while few remained.

"Go and give this to De Fan, he will be elated to see this" The patriarch ordered to one of the elders but before the elder could reply, they saw someone rushing into the main hall.

"Patriarch help! Save De Fan!" De Fan"s teacher who was carrying him said out loud.

"DE SONG! What happened to my son!" The patriarch who saw De Fan"s pale face couldn"t help but release a murderous dark aura which made the elders of the De Clan shiver.

De Fan"s teachers" appearance changed when he heard the shout of the patriarch of the De Clan and could only go on his knees.

If anyone from the Heavenly academy was to see De Fan"s teacher right now, they will definitely not recognise him as he looks like a totally different person, especially the name that the patriarch called out, everyone from the academy knows De Fan"s teacher as Tao Tang.

"He was injured in a Duel at the Monks Gathering!" De Clan"s teacher De Song said.

"DE SONG! Good! Good! I gave you that heavenly artefact which can alter your appearance and aura, so that you can take care of De Fan, but to think you have failed in your task! Tell me what shall I do to you?!" De Clan"s patriarch looked at De Song revealing the killing intent he had.

De Song who felt the killing intent from the patriarch couldn"t help but shiver in fear.

"Patriarch it was out of my control, the person who was duelling with him had a stronger Black Qi than De Fan, it was to the extent that even I couldn"t see what was going inside the vortex."

"You are saying, that person is more talented than my De Fan in the Dark element?!" the patriarch asked while checking De Fan"s condition.

"This....." De Song didn"t know how to reply to this question, naturally, he can"t tell that someone else has better talent than De Fan in front of his father, isn"t that just seeking death.

"Hmph! Leave it! Didn"t you ask the monks to do something about this?" the patriarch asked worryingly because De Fan didn"t seem to be responding to him at all.

"The monks ended up spurting blood when they tried to purify De Fan." De Song said.

"What!!!!! are you saying there is no way to treat my son, is my son going to be disabled like this forever!" The patriarch was petrified after hearing what De Song said, even one of the powerful people cannot cure his son, then what option did he have to cure his son.

"The monks said to bring De Fan to the Himala Mountains or a heavenly artefact that can purify souls will help him cure him." De Song replied quickly.

"What Himala Mountains?!" The patriarch replied back shockingly, the Himala Mountains is in a secular place, it is also not easy for someone to make their way to the Himala Mountains, a lot of deaths are common on the way to that place, regardless of the strength.

"This is why I brought De Fan back to the clan since the monks said that a soul purifying heavenly artefact could do the job."

"Quickly bring the Shakra Purifier Heavenly artefact, who would have thought one of the heavenly artefacts that the person gave us will come really handy this time. My son, you will be cured in no time, don"t worry." The patriarch said while affectionately touching his son.

De Song quickly ran and returned with a clear box, inside the box, there was an object that looked like a bead, the aura that the bead was given out was as if the heaven and earth were combined.

The De Clan"s patriarch took the box carefully and took the bead out, he quickly took it near De Fan who was lying on the floor and placed it on his forehead and moved back instantly, this is because no one can interfere in the process between the heaven and earth.

A thick white smoke started gathering around De Fan and spread around so that De Fan could not be seen, the De Clan"s patriarch relaxed after seeing the white smoke spreading, this is because the person who gave the artefact told him that if this happens, then the artefact has started its process, before he can rejoice that his son is going to be healed, he heard a loud.

BOOOOOM!
