THE IMMORTAL'S WINE STORE

Chapter 84 - Hall Of Life And Death?



Chapter 84 - Hall Of Life And Death?

Inside the Immortal’s Wine Store.

Jiu Shen glanced at the void with a perplexed look on his face.

"System, I can sense a feeling of doubt rising from within Hestia’s soul when she saw that demon. You told me that she is a creation that you made for me, but it seems like her background isn’t just that." Jiu Shen communicated with the system through his mind.

- Ding!

"Host, Hestia is indeed a creation made by the system. Her soul is something that the system took from the Hall of Life and Death. Her reaction just now is something understandable since her death had something to do with the demons." The system replied in a mechanical voice.

"Hall of Life and Death? To think that you’re actually able to get a soul from that place. Even the three almighty Celestial Emperors did not dare offend the people from there. Just how did you get Hestia’s soul from them?" Jiu Shen who was usually calm felt surprised in his heart.

In Jiu Shen’s previous life, there was a majestic holy land floating up above the Primordial God Realm. No one knew when this hovering island was made, but the oldest immortals mentioned that it had already existed even before they were born.

Because of the mysteriousness of this place many grew curious about its origin. Some tried to visit it, but there was some kind of restriction that prevented everyone from going near this floating holy land.

The strongest of immortals tried, but they powerless in their endeavors of ascending this holy land. Celestial Emperor Lao Gou and Celestial Emperor Jian Wang also attempted to soar to that place but they were similarly met with the restrictions. All they could do was stare at its towering silhouette helplessly.

Everyone later called that place as the..."Three Towers of Divine Dao". The reason for its name was because of the three towers erected on top of this floating island.

No one knew what those three towers represented.

Jiu Shen was among those people who tried to visit the Three Towers of Divine Dao, but like everyone else, he also failed. It was only when Jiu Shen met the third Celestial Emperor, the ruler of Hell that he learned the origins of the Three Towers of Divine Dao. As for how the ruler of Hell knew everything about it, even Jiu Shen was clueless.

’According to Asmodeus the Ruler of Hell, the Hall of Life and Death is responsible for the rebirth and death of all the souls in the multiverse. The Hall of Life and Death is also where the souls are kept before they are given the chance of rebirth. In that case, was my soul also kept in there before I was taken away by the system?’ Jiu Shen thought to himself.

The system remained silent and ignored Jiu Shen.

The latter sighed and then glanced at Theia who was standing at the store’s entrance.

Theia had a cold expression, but Jiu Shen saw the blazing fighting intent in her eyes. He knew that Theia might have already seen the fight between Hestia and the demon general. She was just holding herself back since Jiu Shen did not command her to help Hestia.

’Master should be training Hestia, so I should not intervene in this, but...’ Theia used her spiritual power to watch the fight between Hestia and the demon general, but she was feeling restless as the fighting continued.

When Theia saw Hestia was thrown to a mountain, the former unconsciously held the sword strapped behind her back. Thick murderous air shrouded the entire store making the customers shut their mouths in trepidation. They didn’t know what made this demoness incarnation angry that it made her react like that.

"Theia, don’t be impulsive. Hestia won’t be killed from that attack. It was just a moment of distraction on her part. That’s why she was defeated. Furthermore, the demon is also severely injured. It will take much time for him to heal those wounds." Jiu Shen said telepathically to Theia.

"But master, that demon hurt Hestia! I want to kill him!" Theia’s murderous stare did not subside, instead, it became even stronger.

Jiu Shen’s calm eyes turned chilly all of a sudden, making Theia instantly recognize her imprudent actions. She sighed and bowed her head with a downcast look. "My apologies, master. It shall not happen again."

Jiu Shen sighed and shook his head. "I understand your concerns, Theia. But as of the moment, I have no plans of intervening with the fate of the mortals in this world. That is unless if they decide to mess with us openly..."

Theia exhaled a long breath and nodded her head in understanding. She then walked towards Jiu Shen and bowed with a look of regret. "Master, I was impatient just now. I deserve to be punished."

Jiu Shen’s indifferent eyes turned mild when he felt the sincerity in Theia’s words. He walked near her and rubbed her head gently. "Don’t worry, Theia. I know you’ve been itching for a fight after being trapped inside this store as a guard. In fact, you don’t have to wait for that long to have this wish granted."

Theia blushed after having her desire exposed. She didn’t know how Jiu Shen was able to know about it.

’Just how did master know?’ She thought while feeling a bit abashed.

"Master, what do you mean?" Theia asked with a curious look. She was indeed craving for a battle, but all she did inside the store was kick the asses of the customers who created trouble.

Jiu Shen patted her head lightly as he replied with a mysterious tone. "Haven’t you felt all those strong presence gathering inside of Beltran City? They will come here soon and that’s when you’ll make a move."

Theia had a flash of understanding when she heard her master’s words. She then glanced at the four Earth Origin Dragon Tree that each had three flowers blooming splendidly. That was the sign that the Earth Origin Dragon Tree was about to bear fruit!
