Chapter 690 It Can Be Created
- Hoven continued, “Back then, Netherworld and similar forces were essentially the demonic sects. Heaven, due to its formidable strength, kept these demonic sects from Netherworld in check, preventing them from daring to challenge its authority. They were under Heaven's control. The most ludicrous part is that the remaining major clans have no clue about the events that transpired during that period. It's a complete blank. Nobody knows what exactly happened and why the Gate of Chaos collapsed. Contrarily, demonic sects have preserved almost an entire record of history. Apart from the unknown cause of events from that year, most of the information has been retained.”
- Upon hearing that, Aiden furrowed his brows and asked, “Mr. Cullen, are you suggesting that the current Hell is the same as the eighteen levels of hell left behind from the past?”
- “That's right. They've not only survived but also rebuilt the structure of Netherworld from back then. However, they no longer call it Netherworld. Now, they call it Hell!” Hoven nodded before adding, “It's not hard to imagine just how formidable a power could be, one that's been preserved for thousands of years. However, even those from Hell weren't lawless. In ancient times, although the majority of forces had vanished into the annals of history, the four guards of Heaven had survived. They were the so-called guards of later generations. The course of history was simply too long. Initially, there were four guards, each guarding one direction. These four guards, however, eventually dwindled down to just two. The remaining two had since disappeared without a trace. The preservation achieved in Hell was, to a great extent, due to the survival mechanism inherent in its existence, and that was the survival of the fittest. However, a thousand years ago, the four guards had joined forces to seal off Hell, successfully sparing the martial arts world from its corrosive influence.”
