Miracle Throne

Chapter 528: Rare species

The layer of flames was several hundred meters deep, Chu Tian naturally didn’t have the strength to support his way through.

What filled Chu Tian with joy was that when his spirit energy was about to run out, he finally passed through the endless sea of flames. Although he avoided being turned into coal like the Thunderbird, he still fell onto the ground like a falling star.

Hong!

A large part of the forest was burned by this sudden strike, creating a large hole like a meteorite falling down. Chu Tian was in the center of this hole and felt that he couldn’t move his body.

The little fox drilled out of the burned ground with a dusty face and looked very sorry, but it wasn’t affected too much. It ran in front of Chu Tian and grabbed at Chu Tian who couldn’t move.

“The dark elf?”

The little fox looked around and couldn’t find the dark elf. It didn’t know it he was burned up when they passed through the flames or if it fell a hundred miles away when they were falling.

Chu Tian turned his neck with difficulty and looked all around himself.

Purgatory World, this was the Purgatory World!

Perhaps even someone on the surface with the greatest imagination wouldn’t be able to think that there was such an incredible space over a thousand miles underneath the continent!

The Purgatory World didn’t have a sky.

Therefore, when the Purgatory World residents looked up, they could only see a colourful dome above them. This was not just rock, it as a layer formed of different rare crystals, that was like the stars of the surface world.

If one thought that the underground world would certainly be jet black, they would be wrong.

The Purgatory World was not black, rather it had just enough light, like the surface world at dusk. Although it was dim, it was enough for people to see. Some people would be doubtful, where did this light come from? It was impossible for there to be a sun in the Purgatory World.

It was a large mistake thinking like this.

The Purgatory World did have a sun.

The Purgatory World didn’t just have one, it had several hundred, several thousand, several tens of thousands of suns.

When the living beings of the Purgatory World looked up, other than seeing large amounts of complicated and beautiful rocks, they could also see large groups of differently shaped lights. Some were round, some were polygons, some were lines, and some even changed shapes.

That’s right.

The sea of flames!

Chu Tian had just passed the same flame layer to enter the Purgatory World.

Actually the layer above the Purgatory World was very densely distributed, with large amount of energy and light being shined down onto the Purgatory World. It could be imagined what the roof above the Purgatory World was like. Countless little small suns and stars crossing each other, in a surprising coexistence. It was different from the surface world’s sky and was a magnificent sight.

The underground world had to be bleak?

Of course not!

There was light, heat, and energy gathering for tens of millions of years. It created an ecosystem that was different from the surface world, but it was just as complicated. Where Chu Tian crashed in was a giant forest.

Of course.

The Purgatory World’s forest was different from the surface world’s forest, most of the plants here were underground dark plants that couldn’t appear in the surface world. It was hard to find Purgatory plants similar to each other because the plants here lived in different environments. Even if there were two seeds that were the same, when they grew up, they could become two different things.

The entire Purgatory World was surrounded by a faint haze. There were bamboo shoots in the ground and water flowing off glowing crystal algae. If it was not close to the dark world, people would feel they had entered a fairytale world!

Chu Tian didn’t have time to admire the strange style of the Purgatory World.

The little fox did a simple search and couldn’t find that dark elf.

“Forget it, who cares about him. We’re already in the Purgatory World, we’ll think of a way ourselves.”

“However, my situation is bad. I have to enter a period of deep cultivation to recover my spiritual energy, protect me during this time.”

The little fox spat out the spiritual energy herbs Chu Tian found in the Demon Ants valley. Chu Tian didn’t have the ability to make any pills and he had the Netherworld Flame, so he directly swallowed it and used his body as a furnace to refine it. Although this was wasteful, what other choice did he have?

After Chu Tian ate several stalks of spiritual herbs, he immediately felt a strong weariness.

When people slept, their minds were active, but this was an ineffective way of recovering one’s mind. Sleep was a kind of natural defense system, so Chu Tian needed to go into a period of deep sleep before he could completely recover.

The little fox called out a few times.

You can’t fall asleep here!

Chu Tian was already asleep and no matter how the little fox pushed, the current Chu Tian was like he was dead and he wouldn’t wake up at all. When the little fox was feeling depressed, its furry ears suddenly perked, like it had heard something. It immediately drilled into Chu Tian’s clothes to hide.

Some people appeared out of the forest.

These people were very discrete, watching from afar the entire time. After watching for a quarter of an hour and seeing that there was no movement, these people slowly came over flapping their wings.

“There’s a strange being that fell from the Subterranean World!”

These beings looked very strange. They were clearly intelligent beings, but they had wings like butterfly wings. They looked like elves on the surface, with the same pointy ears, but their skin were different. Some had green skin, some had blue skin, some had yellow skin, and some had white skin. They also had a long and thing tail on their behind, with a point at the end of it. This was the normal tail of a demon.

This meant that these beings were demons or perhaps subraces of the demon race. It was a dark race that had the demon bloodline.

This was a Butterfly Demon.

Butterfly Demons were a relatively weak dark race and couldn’t be considered a large race of the Purgatory World. They could only exist in the cracks of large races or rely on a more powerful race to survive.

But the Purgatory World couldn’t compare to the surface world. A race that could survive here, it was impossible for them not to have their own advantages. The Butterfly Demons had weak attacks, but they could use confusion, hypnosis, and poison. There were times where they were hard to deal with.

The Butterfly Demons surrounded the sleeping Chu Tian in the pit and pointed their fingers at him.

“Just what is this?”

“A spy sent by the Subterraneans?”

“But he doesn’t look like the Subterranean spirit insects. Rather he looks like an elf.”

“He can’t be a spy just because he doesn’t look like it? Even if it is a dark elf, they don’t all live in the Purgatory World. There are elves living in the Subterranean World. I think this is a Subterranean spy and we should just suck his blood dry!”

“No, whether he is a Subterranean spy or not, we can’t easily take care of him. He is a being that fell from above, I think we can sell him for a good price. Tie him up and take him away!”

The Butterfly Demons were very timid.

But Chu Tian didn’t have the ability to resist. The Butterfly Demons were a weak and impoverished race, now they had discovered this never before seen rare and precious being. If it was a spy, the information he had was valuable. If he wasn’t a spy, it was still a rare and never before seen creature, so it could be sold to the dark gnome merchants for a large amount!

Several Butterfly Demon men and women towed Chu Tian away.

Thirty miles away, a cliff was covered in strange ancient trees. The ancient trees were covered by ganoderma, but it had already been half petrified. These Butterfly Demons made their nest on the trees growing from this cliff. The entire Demon Butterfly village had several thousand people, which was not considered a small force in the Purgatory World.

The Butterfly Demons bringing back a creature that had never been seen before, it created quite a stir in this little village.

“I feel like it is definitely a half blood elf.”

“No, no, how could it be an elf? The smell of his blood is completely different from that of the elves, so he is completely different race than the elves.”

“Then what is he?”

“Who knows? He doesn’t have a demon smell coming from him and doesn’t have a spirit insect smell.”

The Butterfly Demons excitedly discussed this.

“Stop arguing already!” A female Butterfly Demon that didn’t seem too old came out. She was the smartest person in the village and her snow white skin represented the best Butterfly Demon bloodline. The Butterfly Demon placed a large importance on bloodline, so once she spoke, most of the Butterfly Demons closed their mouths, “Now isn’t the time to discuss. This fellow is heavily injured right now, if we don’t cure him and he dies, he isn’t worth anything!”

The Butterfly Demons finally realized.

That’s right, he had no value if he died!

The Butterfly Demons inspected this strange being’s body and found that the other side’s injuries weren’t as heavy as they imagined, making them feel it was very strange. An old Butterfly Demon said at this time, “Perhaps, his injury is to his mind or his soul. Go and take a look.”

Although the Butterfly Demons weren’t strong, they normally had some spiritual energy, so they could investigate the status of his mind. In the end the Butterfly Demons were shocked when they looked.

“His spiritual energy is actually this heavily injured!”

“What kind of being could withstand this kind of wound!”

“It’s already a miracle he can survive this, it seems like he won’t wake up!”

The Butterfly Demons reached this conclusion and they all revealed looks of disappointment. A person that was basically a vegetable, it would be discounted by a large amount no matter how precious he was.

“How do we take care of it now?”

“Whether he is a Subterranean spy or not, since we can’t wake him up, there is no valuable information at all.” The young white Butterfly Demon said, “Since it’s like this, we can sell him to the gnomes. Our village is having less and less products, so we hope we can sell him for a good price.”

Right, right.

They could only do this.

The Butterfly Demons didn’t have any income. This strange being fell out of the sky and since he has the skills to pass through the Subterranean World, this meant he wasn’t normal. Perhaps they could sell him for a sky high price!

The gnome merchants were all rich.

Even if they only took out a bit, it would be enough for the Butterfly Demons to spend for a long time.

The Butterfly Demons sent the news of a never before seen being to the gnome merchants which caught their attention. They immediately sent several merchants to this tree valley village.

The dark gnomes were very astute and were famous in the Purgatory World.

However, when even the experienced gnomes saw the being the Butterfly Demons were trying to sell, their eyes opened wide in disbelief.

Just what was this thing?

This being was very strange, the Purgatory World had never seen it before!

The Butterfly Demons saw the dark gnomes had this kind of heavy expression and their hearts jumped up. Could this being that they picked up bring riches to the village?
