Hell's Handbook

Chapter 433

Chapter 433

A wanderer – Su Jin was now a wanderer. He couldn’t return to the worlds he was familiar with because he was afraid that the Handbook would locate him, so he had to keep moving from one universe to another.

He was now on a planet with an ocean. There were no highly intelligent beings on this planet and the entire planet was covered in water. All sorts of fish and other sea creatures swam freely in the water, so this was like heaven for aquatic animals.

Su Jin sat cross-legged on a small island, which was one of the few bits of land sticking out above the water on this planet. It was only a few kilometers across, so it wasn’t very large.

He raised one hand and a colorful beam shot into the ocean. He was basically fishing. Maniacal power was his fishing rod and line, but he had no idea what he could get out of the water.

The light in his hand began to shake as something took the bait. He pulled his hand up and the line flew out of the water rapidly, bringing a huge dark shadow along with it.

“Oh my goodness, that’s huge!” Su Jin looked up to see a gigantic fish pulled into the air. The fish looked like it was several kilometers in length, and if he allowed it to land on the island, it would literally smash the island to pieces.

“Stay there!” Su Jin pointed at the fish and the fish remained in midair.

He stared at the fish for a while, then shook his head and pointed at the fish again, allowing the fish to fall back into the water. The fish was too big for him to feel any desire to eat it. He just wanted some ordinary fish that he would be able to stomach.

Shortly after he let the fish drop back into the ocean, he suddenly looked up with a puzzled look on his face. He slammed his palm against the ground and the entire island was quickly covered by maniacal power before it disappeared completely from sight.

Before long, several beams of light came down from the sky. Three lifeforms floated on the surface of the water and began observing the situation on the planet. They were of different races and looked very different from one another. Some resembled humans, while some just looked like monsters.

“Yup, not bad at all. There’s enough of the element of water here, so we’ll take this planet!” One of the monsters gave a pleased nod and each of them threw a little blue ball into the sky. As the three balls floated in the air, Su Jin watched the water of the planet gush wildly toward the balls.

This planet was more than ten times larger than Earth, so logically speaking, it should take decades or even centuries for three small balls to absorb all this water. But Su Jin could actually see the water levels go down, and they were going down really quickly too.

“This is already the 370th water planet, and we still need another 630 of them. I wonder when we’ll get it all done,” said one of them with a sigh.

“My god has just reached god stage and he’s a high level god too. Everything he says is a divine message, so we just have to focus on completing it and there’s no need to think too much about the rest,” said another one.

“Of course. He wants a thousand planets for each of the five elements, and while it’s been quite easy to find the rest, finding water and wood ones have been really tough,” the third one sighed as well. But that wasn’t surprising. There were plenty of planets that could be categorized into the elements of earth, fire and metal, but water and wood were very rare, because any planet with these two elements meant you could find life on it.

370 planets – in other words, the 369 planets with life on it that they found had already been destroyed.

Su Jin continued hiding in silence as he wondered why someone who had just become a high level god would need the energy of so many such planets. He had access to the database of the Handbook and knew what was required for anything within this universe, but he still couldn’t figure it out.

“We just need to obey instructions and disregard everything else,” said one of them who looked like an alien. “No matter how difficult the task is, we have to find them. The universe is huge, so we just need to cross to other galaxies to locate the rest.”

“Boss, you were teammates with my god before, right? Don’t you have any insider information at all?” asked one of them in a curious voice.

The other party hesitated for a moment, then said quietly, “I did hear that he wants to set up a formation he learned from the god of gods, and it needs the energy from 5,000 planets to locate a person.”

“Locate a person? Who?”

“No idea. Not even my god knows. He only knows that this person is very important to the god of gods. And our universe isn’t the only one doing this. All the other universes are doing the same thing.”

Su Jin had a rough idea of what they wanted. They were either looking for him, or the primordial star. Or perhaps they were looking for both at the same time.

He came out of hiding and appeared in front of the group. They immediately sensed his presence.

“Who are you!” yelled the alien.

“Relax… I just need a little help. First, I need some information from your brains,” said Su Jin as he pointed at them and countless streams of maniacal power entered their consciousness. They activated their Spirit Power to stop the maniacal power from coming in, but they were no match for Su Jin’s power.

A split second later, those streams came out of their consciousness and returned to Su Jin. His expression shifted as he narrowed his eyes. He had gathered a lot of information from them, but what shocked him the most was the fact that he saw the face of the Demon Lord. The Demon Lord was that god of gods they were talking about just now.

“Why?” Su Jin frowned. How did the Demon Lord become this god of gods, and why did she give instructions to all the universes to aid her in setting up this formation?

“Who… who are you?” asked the alien in horror. All of them were the highly ranked owners of their own universe, yet they couldn’t defend themselves against Su Jin at all. That really blew their minds.

“Me? You don’t need to know. Return the water to this planet!” Su Jin grabbed the air with his hand, which caused the three blue balls to burst and caused the huge amount of water it had absorbed earlier to return to the island.

The group was furious but did not dare to protest. Su Jin glanced at them, then pressed the air down with his hand. All of them instantly exploded and their flesh fell into the ocean, eaten quickly by a school of large fish.

They had already destroyed more than 300 planets with water, and the number of lives they had killed would have been way more than that. Besides, these creatures were on the enemy’s side. If he let them go and allowed them to continue their search for other planets, they would only bring him more trouble in the future.

He narrowed his eyes slightly as he paused to think about what to do next, and he finally decided to search for the Demon Lord. He had to find out what she was trying to do. She had said before that they might eventually end up having to fight each other to the very death, but he didn’t expect that time to come so quickly.

The universe was vast, so it was impossible for ordinary owners to travel from one space to another. But it was easy for Su Jin. He used the coordinates from the group to locate the high tier god they had talked about.

An extremely well-developed planet appeared before him, and it didn’t take him long to search the planet and find that god.

The god was covered in flames and was extremely powerful, but when he came face to face with Su Jin, he immediately knew there was something different about Su Jin.

“You are very different from others, and you are a different lifeform from me,” said the god. “I am no match for you.”

“Excellent. Since you can see that for yourself, I don’t have to put in the extra effort. Summon that god of gods and you can go, since this has nothing to do with you,” said Su Jin.

The god nodded, then crushed a jade to pieces. A black cloud gathered in front of them as a door in space was opened and the Demon Lord walked out of the door.

She froze immediately when she saw it was Su Jin. Su Jin smiled and said, “What’s with the reaction? Aren’t you looking for me?”

“What the hell? I’m not looking for you! Hurry up and leave this place! If you are discovered, you’re dead meat!” hissed the Demon Lord.

Su Jin stared at her blankly and asked, “You weren’t looking for me?”

“Of course not! I’m looking for a primordial star! A moving planet that’s based on the one created by primordial deities! Nothing to do with you!”

“You’re looking for a primordial star? Can you tell me why you’re looking for it?” asked Su Jin.

She screamed at him, “I said, hurry up and leave! Are you having trouble understanding what I’m saying?!”

“Why are you in such a hurry to chase me away?” Su Jin was completely confused.

“Because she doesn’t want you to die,” a voice resounded from behind Su Jin. The Demon Lord immediately bowed on one knee.

Su Jin turned and got a shock, because he was met with a face that was more familiar to him than anyone else. That was… his own face!
