My Journey to Godhood as a Caterpillar

Chapter 147: Advent of Hell's inheritance

Yun Jhin decided to settle in the city for some time, now that he had the devil organization under him he could use the natural pool under their jurisdiction which was also recoverable.

Yun Jhin's new human body didn't attract much attention as he was exuding a devilish charm that showed that he was an inhabitant of Hell, from absorbing so much demonic energy he was basically just like the average devil in regards to presence.

The location of the other demonic pool was nearby the city, after all, they constructed the city around the pool's location to make sure no one would use it besides the people they wanted to.

Unfortunately, the pool had been used a few times due to the former war so it was quite depleted, also recovering it took a lot of time so Yun Jhin could only use around 50% of its energy, it wouldn't be enough for him to reach the second stage of the sage realm as it wouldn't strengthen his avatar enough.

Yun Jhin sighed as he watched the half-full pool and jumped into it before starting to absorb the energy inside, it took him around half a year now to finish absorbing, after his cultivation increased so did his absorption speed.

He also sent word to his people so they could search for more pools, but finding them would take a lot of time considering there weren't many people as strong or as stubborn as him in finding pools, he couldn't really force them too much in finding the pools or they would defect, killing too many people would be also useless, he didn't need to absorb devils and his power wouldn't increase much at all as his underlings were all considerably weak compared to him at the moment.

Yun Jhin left the pool behind him as it dried up, what could he do now?

Since he was a sage he could basically go to the 8th layer but he would be the weakest there, cultivation speaking, in case of battle power he would be around the middle-pack and he could get a rather good position in the army of the 8th layer, there were also a lot more resources in the 8th layer.

But going any further into his sage cultivation would take more and more time now, the avatar could be strengthened with the pools but even though he currently didn't build up any resistance to the demonic energy yet, it could happen with time due to his peak body refinement cultivation.

He sighed as he looked at the succubus and male demon who were kneeling to him, he did want to stay more in the 7th layer but there wasn't much he could do in it anymore, he sighed as he told them some things and left them some orders before he got up and tried to leave.

But suddenly the whole 7th layer started to shake like an extreme earthquake was going on, even Yun Jhin with his cultivation fell to the ground let's not even talk about the other two who were weaker, the earthquake also increased the gravity in the 7th layer turning a lot of the weaker people into meat paste.

Yun Jhin frowned as his muscles' veins started to appear around his body, he got up from the ground but even his peak refined body was getting pressured by the new gravity and the shaking earth below his feet.

The other two were currently starting to become pancake-like, blood was also coming out of their 7 apertures and it looked like they couldn't handle much more, suddenly the earthquake stopped but the duo across Yun Jhin was also half-dead.

Seeing that they couldn't live for much longer Yun Jhin shook his head and waved his hand at them making them both disappear as they were absorbed, Yun Jhin could have healed them but he didn't bother with it, he was already known by the majority of his underlings as the boss above those two so he didn't fear any mutiny, and if there was a rebellion he would just quell it easily with his strength.

Now, what was that earthquake about?

Yun Jhin went to one of the balconies of the building and looked outside trying to identify the problem.

He looked around and didn't find anything for a short while before his eyes darted towards the distant horizon, he could see a dark spot there that didn't exist in that location before.

Yun Jhin squinted his eyes as he enhanced their capabilities with ki, if that spot was so small that Yun Jhin had to enhance his already advanced vision it could be considered extremely far away!

Even farther away compared to the pool that Yun Jhin found, as he calculated the distance Yun Jhin realized that he would need 3-4 years with teleportation to reach it! And the thing was also enormous, so big that Yun Jhin didn't know how to explain its size with numbers, after all, it was so far away but it was still visible!

Yun Jhin frowned, what could this thing be?

All of the information he got from absorbing the duo that served him didn't mention anything about this, they were both rather young devils and the male devil was also abandoned by the sect so he couldn't have much secret information.

Yun Jhin had been to the 7th and 8th layers before in his former lives but he couldn't access much information or make a big ruckus back then so he still didn't know what that black spot was.

Could it be a tomb, a tower, or something else that linked it to Hell?

Yun Jhin wasn't a stranger to the inheriting system as he left some inheritances of the blood throne sect himself in the mortal realm, some of them were meant to revive the sect while others were meant for him to have some resources when he reincarnated, unfortunately, he wouldn't be able to go to them as they were in the location of the blood throne sect's territory and Yuan Fang was a pain in his side that he couldn't get rid of.

He could be considered quite lucky if the tower had a special inheritance he could take advantage of so he decided to set off to the location by himself.

Yun Jhin's teleportation speed was unrivaled in the 7th layer but the constant use of it also meant he had quite the big consumption of ki even though his teleportation took less ki than the average sage's.

Every 3 months he would have to rest and recover his ki for 10 days even through the use of ki recovering pills, the higher one cultivation was the more ki could they have in their bodies and the more ki would burst through their pathways increasing their explosive strength, the way Yun Jhin teleported made use of his immense amount of ki and the explosiveness of the ki pathways circulation to achieve an immense teleportation speed, however, the 7th layer could be considered boundless and only experts at the peak god realm could travel through the whole 9 layers of hell easily.

As Yun Jhin teleported there was a commotion in the 8th and 9th hells.

The peak god realm experts in the 9th layer couldn't care less about the commotion as they cultivated in seclusion but those below the 9th stage were frantic!

Lu Yi, Shang Qui, Bing Baboboey, and Vanzuel were the weakest lords in the 9th layer they were around the 1st 2nd and 3rd stags of the God Realm, Vanzuel got his hands on the piece of special stone but he couldn't use it for cultivation so he was pretty bummed out, he also didn't want to use it on his subordinates or relatives as they would backstab him if they grew stronger than him.

The other God experts were all devils besides Bing Baboboey, he was a demon but he was more refined than the average demon, he could also be considered rather smart as he had the intelligence of the average devil, he couldn't come close to the scheming of the other people around him but he was still quite smart himself.

They just met with each other due to the shockwave and earthquakes they could feel from the 7th layer below them, they knew what this meant as they had awakened their core inheritance memories when they reached the God Realm.

Vanzuel was the strongest lord in their small community so he was the one who started to talk first:

"You should all know why we met here, Hell's inheritance Pagoda must have resurfaced after billions of years!"

The others nodded as Lu Yi interjected:

"We all know why we are here brother Vanzuel, you don't have to tell us, you aren't the one who initiated the meeting even though you are the leader!"

Vanzuel frowned as he felt that Lu Yi's tone was rather disrespectful but he couldn't do much about him, after all the man was only one cultivation stage below him and his battle power wasn't anything to laugh about.

Lu Yi decided to take advantage of him shutting up and said:

"You should all know that to enter the pagoda we need something that brother Vanzuel got his hands on recently, we don't need a big piece of it, and I also heard you have given a small piece of it to your subordinates in the 7th layer?"

Vanzuel nodded, he couldn't hide this from them, the inheritance would be useful for people up to their level but those at the 4th stage and above wouldn't bother with it, after all, it was only the inheritance of the 7th layer, not the one on the 8th or 9th, if the inheritance of the 9th layer appeared, even those sleeping peak God Realm monsters would wake up to get a piece of the pie.

Vanzuel knew they were trying to exhort the piece of multicolored rock from him but he unleashed his aura and started to negotiate with them, even though they were all quite strong and they could beat him if they teamed up, devils rarely worked with each other due to their backstabbing nature. Also, devils would never sign contracts with other devils there were too many ways to slip tricks into a contract.

Vanzuel didn't walk empty-handed from the trade as he got some territory and some pools in the 9th layer while the others each got a piece of the multicolored rock.

While people at the 8th and 9th layers were currently doing their best to find more multicolored rocks Yun Jhin was getting closer and closer to the inheritance pagoda.

As time passed Yun Jhin was already half-way there!
