Standing beside a cold storage cabinet in Area Three, Wen Yu stared intently at the ground.
Outsiders could not discern the significance of this palm-sized patch of ground, and the "outsiders" included Feili.
But Wen Yu understood.
This area was covered with a complex form of Creation Energy, which acted like a lock, firmly sealing the secrets hidden beneath.
Wen Yu believed that what lay within was the fundamental reason the demon lord had invited him to the Demon Palace!
However, breaking this lock was not an easy task.
After staring at the ground for a long time, Wen Yu finally concluded that, with his current mastery of the soul creation technique, he had no means to unlock it.
Just as he was about to give up, he suddenly seemed to realize something. He took out the manual that Feili had given him and began to flip through it carefully.
Before long, Wen Yu found the method to unlock it in the demon lord's notes.
It was complicated and intricate...
However, Wen Yu, being well-versed in such matters, was unlikely to make any mistakes.
……
The complex Creation Energy surged out and quickly entered the cold storage floor.
Normally, following the standard procedure, the ground would be activated by Wen Yu, allowing a small stone figure to emerge. But clearly, as Wen Yu had suspected, this was a lock.
The Creation Energy that Wen Yu wielded was the key to unlocking it!
Even with Wen Yu's power, he still had to be cautious, meticulously refining his technique. After about thirty minutes, as the Creation Energy within the lock was completely cleared, a crisp "crack" echoed, and unexpectedly, a two-meter-high door appeared on the wall beside Area Three.
In the Demon Realm, a two-meter-high door was indeed quite rare...
Wen Yu slowly stood up and walked to the door, peering inside.
He saw around a hundred cold storage cabinets of various sizes, neatly arranged in two rows at both ends of a narrow corridor, with nothing else in the entire space.
Wen Yu first made a simple assessment of the internal environment and discovered that it utilized a highly sophisticated spatial folding technology. The space here did not overlap with the outside world and therefore could not be reflected externally, which was why it had not been discovered by the park staff, including Feili.
After a brief exploration of the area, Wen Yu confirmed that there were no surveillance devices or dangers and stepped inside.
……
Area Four...
Let’s temporarily call it Area Four.
The air here felt slightly heavy, as if it had been sealed for too many years. Wen Yu quickly adapted to the air environment of Area Four and then walked directly to the first cold storage cabinet.
A tall corpse appeared before him—a resolute-looking male figure over three meters tall, with four arms and three eyes, black skin, and overall conforming to human aesthetic standards.
His body bore obvious signs of tearing at the neck, shoulders, elbows, and legs—these wounds were clean, suggesting they had been cut without resistance by some sharp weapon.
The entire body was split into eight parts...
Seeing this, Wen Yu suddenly seemed to remember something.
He then looked down and saw a series of characters carved on the coffin.
“Aogules, Mill Great World sequence one, killed by failure to assassinate the sovereign, angering the sovereign, body split into eight, later retrieved, and stored here by me.”
“May the name of the conqueror be eternally immortal…”
The conqueror, Aogules.
The first heaven's chosen level sequence and also the first warrior to roar at the sovereign.
His cause of death matched the information Wen Yu had received perfectly.
Thinking of this, Wen Yu quickly walked to the cold coffin opposite Aogules and found a handsome young man who resembled a human.
“Lin Haotian, Five Glories Cave Heaven sequence one, heaven's chosen. At that time, he was the best candidate to assassinate the sovereign, with a success rate of nearly thirty percent! However, he was coerced by the sovereign, turned against, and brought to the Demon Palace, where I shot him dead. Feeling pity for Lin Haotian’s unfortunate fate, I have stored his corpse here as a memento.”
