An Lin discovered that he was situated in an extremely peculiar space.
This space was a vast expanse of pure golden color, and it appeared to be boundless.
The ground was also golden in color, but he didn't know what material it was made of, but it was very soft and warm.
A golden river surged in front of them, and they didn't know where it ended.
Just looking at these images was actually quite a good idea.
However, that river struck fear into An Lin's heart.
What was reflected in the river was not his face, but countless images. Those images were extremely terrifying, and they were tortures that the world did not dare to imagine.
For example, insect eggs were implanted into one's body, which would constantly absorb nutrients from the host. The host's body would decay day by day, and their flesh would be devoured by the insects that hatched from the eggs. In the end, not even the bones would be left, and all of the living beings in the images would wail in anguish and despair.
Above the river, there were many similar tortures, and even more terrifying tortures were innumerable.
One after another, different kinds of torture scenes flowed forward like an endless river.
Shangguan Yi made her way over to An Lin. "If it weren't for the fact that Chen Chen used a spell technique to teleport us to the shore before we fell into the river, perhaps we would have had to experience all of the tortures on the river."
An Lin's flesh crawled upon hearing this.
Any one of the tortures on the river would be a fate worse than death, but he had almost had to experience all of them?
He looked at the surging river with a dark expression. "There's no f * cking end to this. Endless torture, it's simply the most terrifying hell in the world! "
"Perhaps the Heavenly Time God placed all of the cruel tortures she had seen on this river." Shangguan Yi was also feeling a little fearful after witnessing this scene.
"So cruel … She said before she died that she was going to make us fall into an endless cycle of time and die billions of times. Who would have thought that we would die like this …" An Lin sighed with emotion.
He suddenly felt like Xu Xiaolan's punishment of feeding him poison was like a dream come true!
It had to be said that the Heavenly Time God's self-detonation was nowhere near as powerful as the Thousand-Year Sword.
An Lin suddenly recalled that Chen Chen was able to defend against the Heavenly Time God's self-detonation and save them in the process. Wasn't that even more bad * ss?
"By the way, where is Chen Chen?" An Lin asked.
Shangguan Yi pointed a finger toward the river. "He's in the river."
An Lin was shocked. Then, his eyes reddened and he almost burst into tears. He sobbed, "Who would've thought that Senior Chen Chen would sacrifice himself in order to save us. He even had to endure such terrifying pain …"
"What are you thinking about …" Shangguan Yi rolled her eyes at An Lin. "Chen Chen must have gone into the river to find his way back. Perhaps he can find a way back in the river of time."
"He'll be fine, right? Does it hurt? "An Lin asked worriedly.
A smile appeared on Shangguan Yi's face. "Your senior, Chen Chen, is very powerful. He has a special way to keep the river of time at bay. He had already taught the method to the Great Empress, Meng Zhi, and the Celestial Thearch, and all four of them were currently searching the river of time for a way back. I'll stay here to look after you. "
"Everyone's risking their lives to get out of here …" An Lin looked around at the vast expanse of golden light around him and realized that he had been trapped in this strange space.
He couldn't use his spatial powers here, so he had no sense of direction. The only clue he had was the surging river before him, which was a river that recorded the cruelest torture in this world.
Looking at this river for too long would make one dizzy and nauseated.
An Lin couldn't take it anymore after looking at it for a while.
This was much more thrilling than watching any horror movie. Any one of these scenes could make a normal person lose their soul or make them feel nauseated to the point where they wouldn't be able to eat for days.
An Lin found a place to sit down before pulling out a spirit fruit and munching on it.
Shangguan Yi also made her way over and sat down beside An Lin with a smile on her flawless features. "It's very uncomfortable, isn't it? I felt even worse than you when I saw this river before, so I threw up right away. "
An Lin turned to Shangguan Yi with a hint of surprise on his face, as if he didn't think that the legendary reincarnation of the Ice Matriarch would have such weak resistance.
Shangguan Yi's legs were bent over, and her chin was resting on her knees. Her golden eyes, which were filled with a sense of majesty, gradually disappeared, and a hint of vulnerability and melancholy appeared on her face.
She spoke in a soft voice, "Look at those tortures. Even if I were to exhaust my imagination, I wouldn't be able to come up with anything like that, let alone the living beings that are being tortured.
"But in the river of time, there are almost no end to these types of tortures … Tell me, why are there so many living beings that are so depraved?"
An Lin couldn't help but smile upon hearing Shangguan Yi's words. "There are all kinds of birds in a big forest."
"Can we think of a way to kill all of the bad birds in this forest? Or make sure that the bad birds don't even get a chance to be born? "Shangguan Yi continued.
"Er …" An Lin faltered slightly upon hearing this. Why did this sound like the ramblings of a little girl? It was as if she were roaring, "All the bad people in this world should die!"
"In this world, where there is good, there is also evil." An Lin thought to himself for a moment before replying, "Perhaps the reason why bad people exist is to accentuate the greatness of the good."
Shangguan Yi was quite amused by An Lin's choice of words.
Now that she thought about it, it did make sense.
If there was black, there would be white. Only when there were dirty things would they accentuate the greatness of the good. There weren't many demonic sects to accentuate the righteous sects, so who would they accentuate the greatness of the righteous sects?
However, people didn't like things that were black. Just like how everyone liked cleanliness, no one liked something that was filthy.
"Actually, I've always wanted to make the snow maidens into living beings that everyone loves." Shangguan Yi looked at An Lin and said, "It's a pity that even though they're quite beautiful, they're all quite cold and aloof, just like the aloof goddesses you guys talk about. They're very cold and aloof, and they're very unapproachable to outsiders. As time passed, no other living beings were willing to interact with us. "
A smile appeared on An Lin's face. "So it was very rare for me to receive such warm hospitality from all of you?"
"Not just rare, even the Great Empress hasn't received such warm hospitality from them." A vibrant smile appeared on Shangguan Yi's face.
An Lin couldn't help but reminisce about the warm hospitality he had received from the snow maidens.
"An Lin …" a gentle voice sounded beside his ear.
An Lin turned around to discover that Shangguan Yi was looking at him with a gentle expression on her face. Her pink lips trembled slightly, as if she wanted to say something.
An Lin's heart jolted, and his first reaction was: No, Shangguan Yi! There's no way we can be together! Xiaolan will force me to drink medicine!
"An Lin, I'm sorry, I'm really sorry …"
A guilty expression appeared on Shangguan Yi's face, and she lowered her head.
An Lin faltered slightly upon hearing this. Things seemed to be developing in a different direction than he had imagined.
"I'm the one who dragged you down with me. If it weren't for my request, you wouldn't have encountered so many life-threatening situations. I'm a jinx, it's all my fault …"
She hugged her bent legs with her arms and buried her head in her arms. She curled her body into a ball and sobbed in a low voice, "Whoever meets me will be unlucky … I've tried my best, but whoever meets me will be unlucky. Should I not get close to anyone? Or should I not even exist in this world? "
An Lin was still in a daze.
He looked at the woman who had suddenly burst into tears, and he was at a complete loss for what to do.
