Agarez smiled bitterly. “I hope it was just a false statement to attract attention. But think about it, do you think that His Majesty would forgive me after I helped him through this? Now is still not too late. Austin Griffin did not wake up completely yet. Yes, he is your buddy and your brother but once he is awakened, he will be the symbol of ruin and no one can stop him, not even God! I know you don’t believe me now. But since you already gained the upper hand, His Majesty and I cannot hurt you now. Can you then spare me just a few minutes and listen to a story?”
Long Haochen hesitated and nodded his head. “Go ahead.”
Agarez drew a deep breath. “The story dates back to 7,000 years ago. It was a plane that was quite similar to Holy Demon Land, though creatures might be different. The dominator was also humans. Many wars occurred but generally could be controlled by humans. Until one day, when a strong power came and changed all that.”
“It was Austin Griffin. When he first appeared, he only had three heads and was weak. For humans, he was just a relatively strong Devil beast. A few people even tried to kill him but he managed to escape.”
“As time went by, Austin Griffin started to evolve and then it had the fourth head, and then the fifth. It was because he had experience fighting with humans before that he learned to endure silently and hid himself in a safe place deep in the forest and quietly improved his level. When he again appeared in front of humans, he already had six heads and six attributes. Then his power became so strong that an average strong human could not defeat it.”
“Austin Griffin started to kill people for revenge. But he remained wise and did not confront the tough with toughness and kept improving his practice level. After 100 years, the eighth head grew out. He then realized that the power he had was strong enough so he started to use that terrifying destroying power. Almost nobody could rival him. After several attempts to kill Austin Griffin failed, humans started to worry about him. All the strong humans gathered in that plane and tried to kill him. Finally in a valley, they cornered him and launched the attack.”
“The Eight-headed Austin Griffin was very strong but humans came in big numbers. After fighting for two days and two nights, Austin Griffin was defeated and was badly injured. But he again managed to escape. And the humans were wrong to let it run away because that gave the chance to Austin Griffin to kill all creatures in that plane.”
“Austin Griffin escaped and found a place to recover and it took him 100 years. Then he realized that his strength was not enough to conquer the whole plane so it hid itself and practiced diligently. After around 100 years, he finally completed its last breakthrough and woke up. Thus he appeared again on the land and this time as the incarnation of ruin.”
Agarez’s eyes were filled with horror. This story passed down in the Devil clan for generations. Though he never experienced it himself, he was still scared by it only by imagination.
The God of Devils lowered his head and said nothing, simply listened to Agarez.
“Ruins, endless ruins. When Austin Griffin appeared again on that plane, the whole land was immersed in that terrifying attack. Austin Griffin was too strong and no creature could fight against him. With his attribute of ruin, no creature could defend themselves. And after about one month, all creatures of one third of the land were killed. Plants, Devil beasts, and average animals all turned to nothing in his ruin aura. One third of the land, but no living creature was left.”
“The human race felt threatened. At that time there were quite many strong humans and over ten of them reached half-god level, but restricted themselves not to enter a higher level. The number of strong men in that plane was much more than what we have now in Holy Demon Land. About ten of them were at the level of His Majesty. They tried to send the best man to fight against Austin Griffin and failed without exception. Austin Griffin had already become an unconquerable symbol. Even a real god could not defeat it.”
“In order to stop him from killing more creatures, for the future of humans, all strong men gathered. About 10,000 people collected the most precious resources and fortune and created a formation against Austin Griffin within one month, when he was marching further on the land. On the day when the formation completed, those 10,000 people all died and their blood and spirits gave the power to the formation, which was called Killing God Formation of Ten Land Nine Sky. During that one month, Austin Griffin ruined another one third of the land. Over half of the creatures were killed. He then finally arrived in front of the formation, but he was too proud, so much that he did not know what power he was confronted with. He finally fell in the formation and was sealed, not being able to break it at all.”
Agarez looked deeply into Long Haochen’s eyes and said in a low voice, “Austin Griffin was so proud that he would not allow himself to be sealed like that. He was not reconciled to be in a prison like that. The formation consisted of 72 divine weapons. At the core position were three Imperial Weapons. They formed a huge cage. After many attempts to break through the cage failed, Austin Griffin made a movement that killed all humans and creatures. And he himself turned to ashes together with the formation.”
“He used his huge body and hit on the formation violently. At last, the formation was broken but his body turned to pieces. The terrifying crushing force swept over the whole land and all creatures were killed in that disaster. The formation was broken into pieces and the space was torn open. The 72 divine weapons that formed the formation turned to 72 cage pillars, shuttled back and forth in space and finally entered another plane, which is the Holy Demon Land.”
All strong men were shocked at this information. The dark age lasted for over 6,000 years and they never knew the Devil clan’s origin. Agarez gave them the answer to the question of why they appeared on the Holy Demon Land and why they were so powerful.
“Yes. You guessed right. These 72 pillars came to this land and were called by you as the Devil God Pillars. And the spirit on those pillars was called Devil God by you. And His Majesty was my ancestor! It was because the plane was different that the 72 pillars came with great power. When they fell on the land, they gave out an aura of assimilation and then the Devil clan was born.”
“Therefore, the chief criminal who brought you all into this dark age lasting for over 6,000 years lies in your right hand. The symbol of ruin and crushing, the God of Heaven Wrath, Nine-Headed Qi Meila, Austin Griffin.”
Agarez’s sharp voice shocked Long Haochen and he had to believe it. He felt like he saw the plane where Hao Yue came from, the black and red world filled with ruin and dirty breathing, the full attack issued by all humans who so desperately wanted Austin Griffin to be killed. Though he did not want to admit it, he knew that Agarez’s words might be true. Otherwise why would he and the God of Devils be so afraid of Hao Yue? And why the 72 pillars that nobody could break could not defend against Hao Yue’s power?
All these questions found answers in Agarez’s story.
“No, this is impossible. I washed Hao Yue’s dark attributes with my blood. He is no longer the Austin Griffin before. He’s only my Hao Yue.”
Agarez nodded and said, “Yes. He is not Austin Griffin. The God of Heaven Wrath was destroyed. But when he broke the formation, he said that he would be back. He has nine lives. He would come back again.. I do not know how you take him here but you are cherishing a snake in your bosom.”
