Chapter 1408 - 50: Eternal Cage

"Bang."

The small figure fell to the ground, and seven Faceless swarmed up, punching and kicking away, allowing Wen Yu to vent the frustration of being beaten just now.

As for the Black River Sovereign, he merely held his head in his hands, trying to reduce the damage he was suffering.

At this moment, Wen Yu stood in the distance, holding Vicious Venom and continuously shooting at the Black River Sovereign. At this moment, there was no interference, no disturbance, and the effect of Vicious Venom kept stacking, quickly growing to three thousand times.

Mania, weakness, confusion, and other negative states caused the Black River Sovereign to struggle briefly. He rolled like a loach in a muddy pit but was firmly pinned down by seven Faceless, with no chance of turning the tables.

Until Vicious Venom successfully accumulated to ten thousand times.

The Black River Sovereign’s body twitched briefly on the ground, and soon, faint snoring sounds were heard.

He fell asleep.

...

"Mission accomplished."

When Wen Yu walked to a corner of the Heaven’s Sealing massive array formation, he whispered these words, and soon, a small opening appeared in the array. Another Wen Yu carbon copy, seated at the core of the formation, walked in carrying Legas.

"Quite the harvest."

The Wen Yu in the main battle pointed at the Black River Sovereign and said with a smile, while the other Wen Yu waved the utterly defeated Legas in his hand, also saying, "I have quite the harvest myself."

Capturing two of the highest-ranking Demon Tribe members all at once, Wen Yu’s exhaustive use of resources and effort was not in vain.

After a brief exchange, one Wen Yu retracted the Faceless, and the other picked up the Black River Sovereign. First, they destroyed the Heaven’s Sealing massive array formation—it was costly, but after activating the third feature, it was no longer valuable for reuse.

Subsequently, the two Wen Yu stood side by side as the Netherworld was activated. In a moment, a dim coordinate that only Wen Yu could detect suddenly appeared in the perception of the Netherworld, far off to the northeast.

"Whoosh."

The two Wen Yu and the two Demon Tribe members vanished entirely.

...

The feeling of ambiguity quickly faded. When Wen Yu opened his eyes again, he found himself in a bright steel corridor filled with a sci-fi atmosphere.

This corridor appeared unremarkable—a straight passage with small rooms arranged neatly on both sides, numbered from 1 to 12, with six on each side. In front of the rooms stood thumb-thick iron bars, and in a moment of trance, runes seemed to flash across the bars.

This underground building, though merely a few hundred square meters, was astonishingly expensive—it could hardly be cheaper than the Heaven’s Sealing massive array formation.

Because this is a building-type Heaven’s Sealing massive array formation!

It isolates the sensory connection between carbon copies, hides within the Dimensional Interlayer, and simultaneously maintains the third trait of the Heaven’s Sealing array—sealing off Origin Energy and Level 11 powerful experts’ exclusive transcendence privileges!

The function of this building is self-evident—it’s a cage specially crafted by Wen Yu for the Demon Spirits.

Named Eternal...

"Bang."

The Black River Sovereign’s body was thrown into cell number 1 by Wen Yu, the rough action not disturbing the Black River Sovereign’s dreams. Wen Yu shrugged at the sight, saying, "You’re home," and paid no further attention to him.

As for handling Legas, the two Wen Yu had differing opinions.

"Let’s kill him, the most straightforward solution."

Killing him was simple, but after reconsidering, the two Wen Yu shook their heads.

Legas had lost his status as the Supreme Commander of the Demon Race, and his accumulated Origin Energy was squandered. On top of that, his power wasn’t particularly strong, so killing him would be straightforward. However, not killing him wouldn’t cause Wen Yu much trouble either.

Most importantly, Wen Yu thought he could do something with Legas’s former status and position.

"Put him in cell number 2 for now. When he wakes up, I’ll have a talk with him."

The Wen Yu at the core of the Heaven’s Sealing massive array formation spoke, and the other Wen Yu nodded in agreement, saying at the same time.

"So, this place is now yours."

"So, I’m the warden now, right?"

The Eternal Cage must be guarded, and this was the fundamental reason this Wen Yu carbon copy crossed the realms.

From today onward, the sole task of this Wen Yu carbon copy is to stay here and act as the warden of the Eternal Cage.

The other Wen Yu shrugged indifferently, then spoke.

"Then, I’ll be heading back."

A simple farewell, and then the other Wen Yu activated the Netherworld, disappearing instantly from the Eternal Cage.

...

Tiredness, Chaos.

As if waking from a mesmerizing deep dream, when Legas first opened his eyes, he seemed unsure of even the question of who he was.

His gaze was blurry, and it took a moment for clarity to return.

Memories flooded into his mind, from the "final battle" with the Black River Sovereign, to Wen Yu’s appearance, to him suddenly being transported out of the formation and slapped unconscious.

In summary, everything seemed fast and unclear.

He himself didn’t quite understand what he had gone through... or where this place was.

"You’re awake."

A familiar voice came from not far away, causing Legas to be startled. He looked up ahead and saw a familiar figure standing before him.

Of course, there was an iron bar full of runes between them.

"Wen Yu?"

With a simple rhetorical question, Legas looked around.

Besides the iron bars in front, the other three sides were tightly sealed walls, and he even extended his hand to knock on the wall.

With the ’thump thump’ sound, Legas quickly understood that the wall’s defensive power was likely beyond his strength limit.

"I’m imprisoned, aren’t I?"

Having understood his situation, Legas instead calmed down.

If Wen Yu wanted to kill him, he would already be dead. If he didn’t kill him, there was naturally a reason for it.

"This place isn’t prepared for you. Or rather, you won’t be staying here long; you’re just a passerby."

Wen Yu concisely stated his resolution to Legas.

"Then what do you need me to do?"

Legas was indeed perceptive, and as the topic was formally brought up by him, Wen Yu went straight to the point.

"I want to tell you a secret."

"Click..."

The prison’s iron door suddenly opened.

Legas looked at Wen Yu in astonishment, seemingly unable to believe that the barrier between them had vanished so completely.

"What’s this?"

"It’s alright, this is my domain, plus you can’t beat me. So, I think you should know what to do yourself. Come with me."

After saying that, Wen Yu walked directly to the entrance of room number 1.

Soon, the sounds of movements from cell number 2 were heard as Legas stepped through the door, coming to stand beside Wen Yu.

"Black River Sovereign..."

Upon seeing the familiar figure, Legas surprisingly showed no trace of anger.
