Miracle Throne Chapter 526: Purgatory World

Nikello City.

The spirit insect’s underground city.

There were around three million spirit insects living in the city, with several different tribes.It could be considered a large underground city.

The spirit insects were different from the normal underground or surface race.The spirit insects could gnaw on energy rich minerals to survive, so this energy and metal were a part of their life and even cultivation that they couldn’t lack.The energy was not just for the consumption of the spirit insects, the metals could also harden their carapaces and give them stronger defenses.

This was why while the spirit insects were one of the stronger powers, they didn’t attack the surface world.This was because the underground world had enough resources for them to use and they wouldn’t be too adaptive to the environment of the surface world.This is just like why the surface’s spirit beasts and humans didn’t attack the underground world.

There were also several influences in the underground world and they were ruled by several powerful leaders.

The most famous one was the Spider Queen Alexis.

Alexis controlled a third of the territory and population of the spirit insects and she was the only spirit insect leader trying to establish a foothold on the surface world.This current Nikello City as a city under the control of the Spider Queen.

Chu Tian was tied up as he walked forward, “I am warning you, if my companions see that I am missing a single limb, you won’t be able to see a single egg!”

“Stop talking!”

Chu Tian looked at Nikello City and his eyes were slightly stunned as he looked at the underground city for the first time.The appearance of Nikello City was like a giant appendage that was covered in tumours inside a giant beast.

There were large empty spaces around the city where the spirit insects opened breeding farms and fields, raising dark beings and dark plants.The spirit insects didn’t have a high dependance on them, but they still needed them a bit.

Nikello City was reached as high as three thousand meters, looking like an irregular funnel.The top was big and the bottom was small, where it was connected to the ground, being completely empty on the inside.When one entered into it, there would be transport networks stretching in every direction, just like a honeycomb.

Perhaps even the most complicated labyrinths couldn’t compare to this.

Chu Tian entered the nest to appreciate the insect clan’s life.The spirit insects didn’t have order and didn’t even have an army or officials.Other than the one lord ruling above, the entire city was divided into clans, making it very chaotic.However, there was a tacit understanding in this chaos.

The tacit understanding of the spirit insects came natural, just like a group of ants or bees.Even if there was laws, the inferior submitted to the superior and each person finished their duties, having something that they were required to do.

Too complicated.

Escaping from here was harder than ascending to heaven!

If Chu Tian didn’t have the Space Scroll, he wouldn’t have dared take this risk!

The spirit insect city was as complicated as blood vessels, but there was a giant tunnel in the middle of the city, or accurately speaking, it was heavily guarded tunnel.There were large amounts of elite spirit insect warriors as if they were worried about enemies appearing.

Chu Tian released a bit of Divine Sense to investigate.

At the end of the tunnel, there was a large space and a giant tunnel leading down.

The spirit insects locked Chu Tian in a prison built out of crystals, so firm that even Spirit Transformation Experts couldn’t destroy it and Divine Sense was completely trapped inside.Even with Chu Tian’s Vision Domain Divine Sense, he couldn’t investigate the outside world.

A dark elf was suffering all kinds of tortures inside the cell.

“What goal did you have in coming here!”

“Quickly talk!”

This young dark elf boy was scarred all over from the spirit insects.Several spirit insects had cut the skin on his back and then applied large amounts of pain inducing medicine on the wounds.

The dark elf was exceptionally unyielding.

No matter what kind of torture it suffered, it didn’t even give a grunt.

A spider soldier bringing Chu Tian in asked, “What is going on?”

“A spy from Purgatory!”

“What are you leaving the Purgatory people for?Just kill them!”

“The lord said to keep the spy and get news about Purgatory from his mouth, so we can’t kill hi yet!”

“Humph, a spy from Purgatory and a thief from the surface, lock them up together.”

The dark elf fainted from his torture and was finally locked in the same room as Chu Tian.This was the most strictly guarded cell, after all, these two were the two greatest criminals of the city.

After around ten minutes.

The dark elf woke up from his pain.

Chu Tian looked at him with curiosity and asked in the elven language, “Hey, are you alright?”

“Human?”

“You know about humans?That’s great.” Chu Tian felt he could communicate with this fellow, “You are someone from Purgatory?How were you caught.”

“How do you know about the Purgatory World?”The dark elf seem to quickly forget his pain and revealed a look of surprise and disbelief, “Aren’t humans a race that live on the surface?Why were you caught by the spirit insects of the Subterranean World!”

Subterranean and Purgatory.

Two very strange words.

Chu Tian could guess their meaning.

The underground world was separated into layers.The Purgatory World was the lowest underground layer, mainly where ancient creatures, devils, or dark elves lived.The Subterranean World was above the Purgatory World. Although the Subterranean World was still an underground world, compared to Purgatory, it was much closer to the surface.

The representatives of the Subterranean World were the spirit insects.

Basically the spirit insects ruled the Subterranean World.

This dark elf from the Purgatory World was caught by the spirit insects because the relationship between the Subterranean and Purgatory Worlds weren’t good.The Subterranean World wanted the Purgatory World’s resources and the Purgatory World wanted to control the Subterranean World. The two sides drooled after each other more than they drooled over the surface world.

Chu Tian didn’t have the tone of someone condemned to death and crossed his legs as he leaned against the wall, “I am the City Lord of a surface forest city.Because the underground dark creatures have created a riot that has caused my city a bit of trouble, I came down to investigate. Who would have thought that I would accidentally kill the ants raised by these insects and were finally brought here by them.”

The dark elf was very surprised.

He had reason to be doubtful and surprised.

The surface world wasn’t considered far from the Subterranean World, but there were large amounts of dark creature nests, volcanoes, natural disasters, and all kinds of bad environment, so there weren’t many paths that could be taken.

This person can come alone from the surface world?

The dark elf even suspected that this human was a trick the spirit insects were using to obtain information from him.

Chu Tian asked the dark elf while he was thinking, “Do you know what is happening?”

“The underground demon beast were stirred by the Purgatory World’s Devil’s Gate.This matter doesn’t occur frequently, so there is no need to give up your life. Now that you are caught, you have no chance to escape.Just prepare and wait for death.”

“There is no need.I can see that you know quite a bit, how about you escape with me.”

“Humph, can you still move like this?Do all the surface dwellers like talking big like you?”

Chu Tian let out a soft whistle.

The little fox appeared in the cell with some black smoke.

The dark elf revealed a shocked look, “This is……”

Without saying anything else, the little fox gnawed through the chain and spat out a scroll for him.

Chu Tian untied the shackles of the stunned dark elves and took out another scroll for him, “This is a spatial transport scroll.You’ll be able to return to the surface as long as you open it, so now come with me.”

“You…..”

“I have saved your life, so you will tell me the information I want, it’s very fair.Don’t talk, let’s go!”

The dark elf hesitated a bit before giving the scroll back to Chu Tian, “No, I can’t leave.I need to return to Purgatory!”

“Return to Purgatory?”

“Nikello City’s invasion plan, I need to bring news back.”

Damn, is his idiotic brain broken?Does he not see how serious the Nikello City defenses are!

Not to mention you, even if it was your master Chu Tian, even I wouldn’t dare try to escape from here!

“If your excellency can help, we the people of Purgatory will be filled with gratitude to you!”

“Forget about the thanks.”Chu Tian rolled his eyes, “How do you want me to help you?”

“Nikello City has one of the main Purgatory tunnels in the Subterranean World, there is a Purgatory channel at the bottom of Nikello City.As long as we can reach that pass, we have a chance to enter Purgatory.”

Actually it wasn’t easy for Chu Tian to come here and he didn’t want to return to Miracle City just like this.

The problem now was the strict defenses of Nikello City and Chu Tian’s condition was not good.How can a fish in troubled waters run away from this tightly guarded prison and pass through the channel?

The dark elf saw that Chu Tian was quiet, “I can see that this matter is hard for your excellency.Since it is like this, I’ll go alone. We’ll say goodbye now.”

You’re going?

Was there any difference from killing yourself?You might as well just kill yourself in this cell right now!

Chu Tian had the Transport Scroll, so he could escape even in the worst scenario.Now that he had found a guide to the underground Purgatory World, why not just take this chance to see the Purgatory World?

The little fox volunteered itself.It was also very interested in the Purgatory World, so it gave Chu Tian a plan.

“Do you have a way to stall for time?”

The little fox blew on the ground and the inside of the cell began to change.Two people appeared out of thin air and were tied up inside the cell.

Illusion Substitute?Small trick!

The little fox used its demonic technique and this time its target was Chu Tian and the dark elf.The two of them felt an energy enter their bodies and their appearances changed until they looked like spider people.

This move wasn’t bad!

The little fox ate many things, but it wasn’t like it was no use.This demonic technique seemed ordinary to Chu Tian and it was very likely to be broken if one looked carefully, but this was more than enough to use for now for these trapped fishes.

“Good!I’ll give this plan a try!”Chu Tian’s eyes turned white and he released his spatial energy, instantly taking in the dark elf as well, “We’re leaving!”
