Infernal realm

When I stepped out of the teleportation circle I heard voices and shouts, apparently I wasn't the only one who came from the material plane I saw plenty of Saints and demigods.

"Wow captain this time we got a God who has ascended how rare" one of the soldiers said to a big burly man, the big burly man named Captain Raiden who was actually a High god looked at Lucas and then addressed everyone in the teleportation circle.

"Line up and keep quiet, welcome to the Infernal Realm. Now get in the metallic creature" the captain said. A unruly demigod who didn't like to take orders and wanted to get on his own way flew up and said " I'm good by my self" and attempted to fly away but was killed on the spot before he even took off by the captain.

Raiden sneered and said out loud " if you don't follow order you'll be put down as easy as that" after he made an example, many of the people around the teleportation circle were horrified and put away all their rebellious thoughts. Lucas who was sitting in a corner suddenly shut his eyes. The moment he came to the infernal realm he felt the rich destruction energy and when he saw the captain take action he finally felt that he touched upon something and started to comprehend the mysteries. Two minutes later the power of heaven and earth descended and his destruction clone finally became a god.

Everybody was looking at Lucas and some were shocked, captain Raiden looked at him and thought 'he managed to become a God the moment he came to the infernal realm?' But he quickly pushed aside these thoughts he is a high God after all, a God don't have much appeal to him. A man with white hair came to Lucas side and asked if wanted to join his tribe but Lucas refused him. As the soldiers were leading everyone to the metallic creature the captain said that he would drop them off on different tribes or at the wilderness it's up to them.

I went to captain and asked if it was possible he could drop me off in a city but the captain refused immediately, he gave me an ink stone and dropped me off somewhere in the wilderness. Before he dropped me off, he told me which continent they were on and the nearest city. I was on Bief continent and the nearest city was Erendon east from here which will take approximately 3 years to reach, i had no other choice but to fly there.

It didn't even take day before some robbers where infront me, eleven of them to be precisely. Just because I was a God they took me for an easy prey, in the group of bandits was a highgod, nine other gods and a demigod

"Boy I'll give two choices death or join us" the High God gave an ultimatum to me, to be honest it wouldn't be so bad to join them but I knew that bandits don't tend to live long, some random strong high god could wipe them out at any time or a Fiend mission. So my choice was easy "No!" And took out my spear both of my clones released my domain that has now almost reached perfection, I wanted to integrate the mysteries of lightning that I have fused together and perfectly fuse it with my domain and make it even more lethal!

The moment my I released my domain everyone except the high god died on the spot, i brandished my spear and thrusted against the my enemy but he blocked it albeit barely, my domain was constantly wearing him down. I used a skill that i comprehended after I managed to fuse two together I called it 'Ourmound' a lightning bolt that looked like a serpent, danced through the air to fast to even catch a glimpse of it. The bolt instantly destroyed half the man's body, I released another bolt to finish him off. After I killed him I took his and everyone's rings and god sparks, then I casually went on with my travel, luckily this highgod had a metallic creature in his space ring it saved me some time.

Three years passed in the blink of eye. In the past three years Lucas was attacked by bandits 6 times, luckily they were all weak and he killed them all and earned him self some fortune. When he arrived at Erendon city he was shocked how gigantic this city was, he paid the entry fee of one ink stone, after he entered the city the first thing he did was go to an library he needed information about the current of world and even hoped to peace together the timeline. He wasn't sure if Linley the protagonist was already born or not. He bought books that had information and read them through all, after that he bought a map. He rented a courtyard with the money he as now he could afford to stay for approximately four hundred years, so he planned to stay and cultivate for a hundred years try fuse the third mystery after that he would go and take the fiend trial and become a fiend, only after fusing 3 mysteries does he have the capital to protect himself at least and fully explore the world.

After exactly ninety eight years he managed to find a meeting point with the third mystery, they say that it is much more easier to fuse mysteries together at the God level, after becoming High God is much more harder, but who is willing to stay so long at the god level? it's too dangerous. Lucas is quite lucky because of his soul mutation his fused divine power equal a high gods. The information he got was mostly about the power scales, it goes like this.

1-Star = God level

2-Star = A High God who had fused with a highgod spark

3-Star = Ordinary High God who was comprehended all six mysteries but NOT fused any mysteries together

4-Star A High god who's a divine beast, still not fused any mysteries together

5-Star A high god who has fused two mysteries together

6-Star A High god who has fused 3 mysteries together

7-star A High God who has fused 4 mysteries together

Ashura = A high God who has fused 5 mysteries together

Paragon = A high god who has fused 6 mysteries together

After Lucas found a meeting point between the mysteries he didn't end his seclusion and kept going. It took him another 214 years to finally fuse all three mysteries together and finally he perfected his Domain and at the same time he came up with a new skill based on his three fused mysteries. It's called 'God Speed', no enemy beneath 7-star will be able to defend against him now, even if he's a divine beast he would just last a little bit longer.

While he was in seclusion he started to experiment on how to temper his body after years of experimenting he found only one way and that is to use his fused divine power of thunder and destruction to constantly destroy and rebuild his body with thunder. It was very painful by at last he succeeded and managed to get a body equal to a God level artifact, when both of his clones breakthrough to high god level he can further temper his body to a high god level artifact and that is very rare in this world. Not many high gods have a high god level artifact body only special life forms or insanely strong divine beast can have a body comparable to a high god level artifact.

Lucas exited his seclusion took a breath and smiled thereafter said "Let's sign up for the Fiend trial. With his 6-star level of strength nothing could go wrong.
