Title: Seven Supreme Devil Halls
...
Fenrir was usually an adorable yet annoying dog. One can never get bored with him at your side.
However, this smelly dog simply doesn't want any respect. He had no aura like a supreme at all. Right now, he was currently pursuing the devil path and didn't seem like he would return at all.
Although he seemed to be casually chatting with Shun, and complaining, he was actually asking for permission to go ahead with his choice, to which Shun didn't seem to care.
He was currently deep in thought.
Shun was musing whether this was the fortune of the Devil Hall, or a calamity for the Devil Hall.
That Devil King who was referred by Fenrir as big brother glanced below at the injured devil experts who tried to block Shun.
Shun actually fought his way up, he is much more imposing compared to this little brother of his.
Back then when Fenrir ascended the mountain, how would he dare to tell people that he is a chakra beast? On his way up, he politely greeted everyone, causing everyone to feel that he is very obedient devil cultivator with a gentle personality.
"Are you also a transformed chakra beast?" That devil king glanced at Shun, his eyes gleaming with light, causing Shun to shiver.
Why did this Devil King seem so interested in chakra beasts?
"Nope." Shun shook his head.
"Ah, that's a pity then. But then again given how much little Fen has praised you, why don't you head to the Myriad Ancient Devil Hall?" That Devil King issued an invite to Shun.
Shun didn't expect that it would be so hard to ascend the mountain, yet so easy to enter a Devil Hall.
"The Myriad Ancient Devil Hall studies the arts and techniques of ancient devils. Why do you all want to recruit a chakra user?" Shen came over on his dragon as he coldly asked.
"The matters of my Myriad Ancient Devil Hall, who are you to interfere?" That Devil King turned and faced Shen, his gaze akin to an ancient devil causing the dragon, Shen was riding to roar with fear.
"Hmph." Shen didn't know what to say.
There wasn't too much interference between devil halls, and this was especially so for the mysterious Myriad Ancient Devil Hall.
They had always been a weird bunch.
"I've never seen someone as busybody as you before." Shun shook his head. He then spoke to the Devil King, "I will seriously consider senior's recommendation."
As he spoke, he transmitted his voice to Fenrir, "Why did you ascend the Celestial Mountain? Did someone ask you to come here?"
"Mhm, I was keeping a low profile in the Fallen God Region and I met a mysterious white-robed young man telling me to come up the Celestial Mountain."
Shun froze, that mysterious young man actually managed to find Fenrir.
In that case, it was possible that he could find Hinami and Kaguya here. Wasn't that mysterious fellow a little too terrifying?
Lifting his head, Shhn spoke to She . "That day the person who asked me to come here and drove you away, should be a member of the Celestial Mountain right. Which Devil Hall is he from?"
Shen's expression turned cold when he thought of that person. That bastard, if it wasn't for him, he would already have gotten his soldiers to finish off Shun.
How would Shun still be alive to climb up the Celestial Mountain?
Seeing that Shen was keeping quiet, he used his chakra to form a projection. He then turned to the Devil King and asked, "Sir, this is the person who asked me to come up here."
"Oh." The eyes of that Devil King narrowed. He then replied, "He is someone from the Apostle Devil Hall."
"Apostle Devil Hall?" Shun's eyes flickered with curiosity.
"Yes. The Apostle Devil Hall. The people of this devil hall are all named apostles. The white-robed man you met was one of them. He should have gone down the mountain to roam the islands." That Devil King spoke. .
These guys were actually invited here by that apostle? How interesting.
However this was fine as well, since an apostle invited them, there shouldn't be any problems with allowing them to join a devil hall.
As someone from the Myriad Ancient Devil Hall, they had absolute faith in the Myriad God Sovereign.
Since these people passed the test on the way up here, they had no suspicions at all.
So what if they were chakra users, chakra beasts or even Otsustsukis?
He had never met someone who was so suitable for the inheritance of their devil hall like Fenrir before.
"The Apostle Devil Hall is one of the toughest hall to enter, they don't actively recruit members and even if you knelt down outside just like those Devil Emperors, it would be useless. They would only recruit someone when they wish to do so." That Devil King continued.
"What other devil halls are there?" Shun pointed upwards as he asked.
"Apostle Devil Hall, Myriad Ancient Devil Hall, Imperial Dragon Devil Hall, Sky Devil Hall, Judiciary Devil Hall, Darkness Devil Hall and the Saint Devil Hall." That Devil King spoke, there were a total of seven supreme devil halls.
"Judiciary?" Shun asked. Never thought there would be a court up here.
"Why? You wish to join there?" That devil king stared at Shun. "Let me urge you to give up. The Judiciary Devil Hall and Apostle Devil Hall are the same, they don't actively recruit members. Only those suited for their hall's inheritance would be recruited. Naturally, if you sought to join as a guard for these halls, you might have a chance."
"Which Devil Hall is the strongest?" Shun curiously asked.
"The Saint Devil Hall is the devil hall created by the Myriad Devil Sovereign, it's a place of faith. When the Celestial Mountain was established, there were only three other devil halls supporting the Saint Devil Hall. The other three are the Apostle, Judiciary and Darkness Devil Halls." The Devil King slowly spoke.
"The apostles of the Apostle Devil Hall spread faith all around the Myriad Islands, they can be considered envoys of the Celestial Mountain. Judiciary Devil Hall are those who judge, they are in charge of all punishment, and nobody would dare not to comply. Darkness Devil Hall's experts are hidden in the shadow, they live and breath in the shadows, collecting information and making their plans there."
"As time flowed by, many experts of the Celestial Mountain all died and there were many transformations to the Celestial Mountain. Our Myriad Ancient Devil Hall was born because we sought to preserve some of the glory of our Celestial Mountain's forefathers, keeping the inheritance of ancient devil experts, making us one of the most important devil halls here on the Celestial Mountain."
"The Imperial Dragon Devil Hall rides dragons of darkness, taking the role of patrolling around the Myriad Islands, and their young lords are named the Imperial Dragon Saints. They are somewhat similar to apostles, but their hall was elevated in status due to the appearance of a powerful expert from there. They used to be vassals of the Apostle Devil Hall but after the supreme expert appeared, they stood as an independent power. The Sky Devil Hall also produced a supreme expert and became one of the devil halls at the peak of the Celestial Mountain."
Shun quietly listened, he faintly understood the composition of the Celestial mountain from the words explained.
The Apostle, Judiciary and Darkness Devil Halls are orthodox devil halls and already existed when the Celestial Mountain was established.
Their statuses were extremely high, and since the Apostle and Judiciary Halls don't actively recruit members, the Darkness Devil Hall should be the same as well.
The Myriad Ancient Devil Hall was an extremely ancient devil hall. Their mission was to pass down the inheritance of ancient supreme devil experts to suitable candidates.
This was a pretty unique hall and just so as fate would have it, that wolf Fenrir was extremely suited and might even inherit the position of master of this hall.
As for the Imperial Dragon Devil Hall and Sky Devil Hall, they were created due to the existence of supreme experts. If a True Devil Emperor was born in the thousands of devil halls in the places of the mountain below the peak, the status of that devil hall would rise exponentially and even have a chance to be relocated at the peak of the Celestial Mountain.
However, the Myriad Islands and Celestial Mountain have already existed for so long but during this time, only two devil halls have managed to elevate themselves up. One could very well imagine how high the difficulty of doing so was.
"Sir I wish to take a look at the other halls." Shun spoke to the Devil King.
After the test of ascending the mountain, his perspective towards alot of things became toned down.
Although he already had an idea of what he would be experiencing in this world, actually living it awakened something in him.
Shun was now very curious with regards to the devil halls here.
"Might as well, you can go take a look." The Devil King spoke to Shun.
"You don't want to accompany me to the Myriad Ancient Devil Hall?" Fenrir asked. "The Myriad Ancient Devil Hall has many arts, you might even be able to gain the power of ancient devils and we are the strongest devil hall here at the peak of the mountain. It would truly be a pity if you don't come with us."
The devil king expert from the Myriad Ancient Devil Hall felt extremely enjoyable when he heard Fenrir's words. "Little brother's words do make sense."
Shun was already numb to Feneiri shamelessness, but behind those shameless words, Shun could tell he was asking for him to follow along.
Shun smiled and said, "Let me take a look first before I consider. In addition, given how high the status of your hall is, my talent might not be enough to gain recognition."
"Mmm, at the very least you can be considered to have a good judgement of your own abilities. After all, not everyone is as outstanding as me." Fenrir patted Shhn on his shoulders in a consoling manner.
"How shameless." Shen who was in the air couldn't help but coldly speak. He couldn't stand the sight of the two of them.
"No wonder you are so afraid of that white-robed young man back then. So it turns out that this is the case." Shun glanced at Shen before he continued upwards.
The experts of the Imperial Dragon Devil Hall all stiffened as their eyes gleamed with sharpness.
Shun continued up the path, finally reaching the very peak. As he saw the majestic halls on the way, reverence actually appeared in his heart, the reverence towards the Myriad God Sovereign.
Establishing the Myriad Islands, causing the Celestial Mountain to become the place of belief for the entire devil world. As long as the Celestial mountain gave a command, they could control every devil practitioner here. Such faith was simply too terrifying.
Shun saw several devil experts outside the halls. There were some who bowed, some who even knelt down in worship, hoping to be able to enter.
"That place is the Imperial Dragon Devil Hall." Fenrir pointed to a devil hall in the distance.
"Given the character of the Imperial Dragon Saint, let's just forget about this devil hall." Shun shook his head. The eyes of Shen flashed with killing intent. He wanted to see how Shun would be rejected.
There would be no Devil Halls that would accept a chakra user.
Even if Shun ascended the Celestial Mountain, he wouldn't be able to gain admittance to any of the devil halls here!
