Chu Feng was very tired as he moved forward alone in the crack in the void. He searched for many days without rest and found some clues, but he still couldn't find the final door of life.
The world was pitch-black, especially in this place. The spatial cracks were so strange that one couldn't even see their fingers in front of them as they devoured all light. If it wasn't for Chu Feng's Fiery Eyes, he wouldn't have been able to see anything. Moreover, this place even isolated spiritual exploration.
"There's something going on."
Suddenly, Chu Feng became somewhat excited. He felt that this spatial crack was unstable and fluctuating. Perhaps it was connected to the outside world.
The most direct evidence was that there were corpses here that hadn't been completely purified by the reincarnation flames. This meant that this place wasn't the true purgatory space.
This was a void crack region, so there might very well be a flaw, a door leading to the outside world.
After all, he had found this place based on the clues left behind by the ancients. Back then, there must have been many people searching for a way to escape.
This definitely wasn't the work of one person but the result of the efforts of many generations of experts.
Along the way, he made other discoveries. Some ancients had the ability to tear apart space, but they left behind spiritual imprints to warn the latecomers that this place was different and too difficult. Using brute force would cause the reincarnation flames to purify this world.
"This should be the corpse of a Western Silver Dragon."
Along the way, he found another colossus with a divine aura that surpassed the golden arhat level. Its flesh wasn't decaying and its scales were still shining with silver splendor.
If this was on Earth, it wouldn't be an exaggeration to call it a god!
"Hmm, could it be here?!"
Chu Feng revealed an astonished expression as he sensed the wind. It was different from other places. It was as if there was a deep passageway here from which cold wind was gushing out.
Next, he revealed a joyful expression. There were obvious traces in the spatial crack. Giant beasts had occupied this place and people had lived here for a long time. This place was a bit strange.
Following the spatial crack, he entered a place with complicated terrain. The absolute darkness here devoured all light.
Even the occasional supreme life form like the remains of the golden crow couldn't emit light in this area. It was as if they had entered a cosmic black hole.
The more this was so, the more Chu Feng looked forward to it. That was because he had indeed sensed a fresh aura in the wind. This made him somewhat excited. Could it be that he was really going to go out?
If there was a passage between this place and the outside world, it would indeed be heaven-defying. How did the ancestors do it?
It grew darker and darker. Chu Feng could feel some of the energy within his body leaking out. Then, the gentle breeze also gradually died down. This place once again fell into absolute darkness and deathly silence.
Then, Chu Feng felt that he had entered a man-made stone wall. He walked along a long path, as if he was walking on a dark path that led to hell. It was incomparably cold.
The ground was descending, and the feeling of being in the crack of the void was disappearing. It went all the way down into the depths of the earth. Cold, darkness, and silence became the eternal theme, making people unable to feel the passage of time.
At first, in this silent place, Chu Feng could hear his own footsteps. Then, he heard his own heartbeat. Finally, in the darkness, he heard the sound of his own blood flowing.
All of this was because this place was too quiet. Even the sound of a pin dropping wasn't enough to describe it. All he could feel was his own body.
Suddenly, in the absolute darkness, a glossy green ball of ghostly fire appeared in front of Chu Feng. It was too sudden, and he didn't even have time to react. He almost crashed into it.
It was like a black hole, and yet a ball of ghostly fire suddenly appeared in mid-air. It was too sudden, and he didn't have time to react.
He held the Violet Heavenly Thunder Crystal in his hand, and almost smashed it out. He himself retreated, maintaining his calm, ready to erupt at any time.
Upon closer inspection, it looked like a piece of bone. There was no flesh or blood, and the bone was covered with tiny cracks. It had long fingernails, and now it was entirely glossy green. It was burning as it floated in mid-air.
What kind of situation was this? A piece of bone could actually float in this place without any spiritual fluctuations? A look of suspicion appeared on Chu Feng's face, and he became cautious.
Chu Feng circled around the burning piece of bone, avoiding the glossy green ball of fire. He walked forward, and then discovered a smooth path. It seemed to have been repaired by someone, and there were even stone steps.
This made him even more excited. He had probably arrived at a crucial location.
However, along the way, he saw even more bones, such as skulls and vertebrae. They were all very large, and he didn't know what creature they belonged to. They floated in mid-air, emitting glossy green ghostly fire as they burned.
This definitely wasn't caused by the phosphorus on the bones. It was different from the ghostly fire in the graveyard.
Chu Feng was scared out of his wits. This place made him feel increasingly cold, and he was emitting cold air from head to toe. The floating spinal ghosts and skulls were like lamps in the netherworld, embellishing the path of death.
He came to a stone room. There were no bones here, but there was a ghostly fire. It originated from a sinister skull that was hanging in mid-air. The neck had been broken off, and it was dripping with blood. This was the skull of a ferocious beast, and it was as big as a millstone. Chu Feng had never seen such a thing before. Its head and face were covered in green scales, but between the gaps of the scales, there were many green needle-like hairs. He couldn't tell what race it was, and it died horribly.
Its eyes were wide open, as if it had experienced the most terrifying thing before its death. It was suspected that it had been scared to death. After its pupils dilated, its facial expression froze in that instant. It was incomparably terrifying.
Chu Feng shivered, and avoided the floating skull. He was extremely fearful. How did it die? Could there be other dangers here?
Then, he saw a person in the corner. He was as dry as firewood, emaciated, and his entire body was shriveled like a living skeleton. He leaned against the corner, as if he had retreated because of fear. His eyes were wide open in his sunken eye sockets, and his face was filled with malevolence and fear. It was as if … he had been scared to death!
This place was too strange. It was suspected to be full of danger and uncertainty.
Then, Chu Feng saw some words on the stone wall. They were left behind by the withered man who had retreated to the corner. Chu Feng stared at them and read them in detail.
He had studied for a period of time through the photon computer, but he wasn't very familiar with the common language of the starry skies. However, he could roughly read the words and understand their meaning.
"We can also be considered almighty characters. Who would've thought we would meet such a miserable end after falling into the purgatory? Even Zhao Qiankun couldn't endure the reincarnation flames and was crushed into powder by the six types of reincarnation flames. We avoided the maelstrom area and luckily escaped here. "
The description was very simple. It didn't even mention their own identities or how they had drifted here.
"My attainments in domains are exceedingly high. How can I be willing to fall here? I followed the path of our predecessors and decided to lay down a heaven-connecting domain with a few good friends to open up the void and escape from this place!"
The words recorded their determination and also mentioned that this place had been discovered and excavated by earlier ancestors. There was an even more ancient and primitive domain that was connected to the great crack in the void.
At the same time, there was also a warning from even more ancient predecessors that this place was very evil and that it was easy to die. Moreover, using too much energy might cause one to die even faster.
"We were very fortunate to enjoy the fruits of our predecessors' labor. This old man laid down a peerless domain and, with the help of a spatial expert like the Void Rat, we finally connected this place and opened up a path of life. However, the great terror also arrived …"
At this point, Chu Feng felt his hair stand on end and a true chill ran down his back. He suddenly turned around, but it was very cold and no one had appeared.
Then, he looked down suspiciously to read the words again.
"We used the domain to connect a mine. It's pitch-black and boundless. This should only be a small section of the mine. Even our ancestors hadn't excavated this place, so we don't know which era it was left behind. We were so excited that we couldn't control ourselves and thought we had escaped with our lives. But this pitch-black pit also belongs to this place and is within a crack in the void. We don't know which era this was left behind by the ancients or what they're excavating … "
In the end, the domain giant and the Void Rat didn't pay any attention to this unfathomably deep mine. Instead, they continued to connect along the predetermined path.
"Finally, we succeeded. We borrowed a small section of the black pit to pass through the boundary wall and see the scenery outside. This place … should be the eleventh planet in the universe. We found a stone tablet not far from the outside world. We can finally escape. We'll be recorded in the annals of history for actually escaping the land of reincarnation!"
Then, there were frightening words on the ground. The hand that had carved them was probably trembling.
"Disaster has appeared. The great terror has arrived …"
The words became disorderly at this point and made one's hair stand on end.
"Half of the Void Rat's head suddenly disappeared. It was drenched in blood and died mysteriously! A cold aura pervaded the air and filled every inch of space. It made one's hair stand on end and one's scalp go numb … "
Chu Feng felt the cold aura at the same time as he read these records. All the pores on his body opened up and he felt a chill from head to toe. It was as though he was experiencing everything that was recorded.
He quickly turned back with the stone box in his hand. He was too scared here.
But he didn't see anything. There was no one behind him. But why did he feel as though there was something sticking to his back?
At this moment, the stone box in his hand emitted a faint light which helped him calm down a little.
"Old friend Yuan Zhen exploded into pieces on the spot. For some reason, his flesh and blood seemed to have been sucked dry by something in an instant. Only his bones were left, but his head retained its flesh and blood. Moreover, there was fire on both his bones and head. It was oily green …"
As he read up to this point, Chu Feng felt that something was wrong and the chill on his back grew even more intense.
"The others also died without knowing why. It was as though they had seen the most terrifying thing before their deaths. This kind of scene happening in the dark mine is too terrifying …"
Chu Feng felt uneasy. Just what kind of place had he arrived at?
"Only Dao friend Mo Kong managed to escape. However, he went crazy the moment he reached the outside world. He clawed at all the flesh on his body and then ran away while screaming in fear. I don't know if he survived or not, but I feel that his ending wasn't too good. We are almighty beings, but in the end … not good, there's movement in that sealed passage. Something is about to come out. Could it be that it's finally my turn … I'm finished, I'm going to die. It's really coming … "
The records ended here and came to a screeching halt!
Chu Feng felt a chill run through his entire body. Just what had they encountered? They had clearly dug out a passage to escape through the void, but in the end, they were almost completely annihilated!
Chu Feng discovered that the person who had retreated to the corner and left behind a suicide note was looking at something behind Chu Feng in fear. This made him shiver.
This time, he turned around and observed carefully. There was a giant rock on the stone wall that seemed to be blocking a path.
It could be seen that the rock was tightly sealed and hadn't been pushed open. There shouldn't be any creatures coming over.
But why did that domain research giant say that he was about to die after sensing something coming? In truth, he really did die in the end, and he died in extreme fear!
Just what did he see at the last moment?
Chu Feng stared at the stone. There was blood on it that hadn't dried up completely. It was the remnant blood of several almighty beings recounting their terrifying experiences.
"There's a path ahead that leads to the outside world. Moreover, the exit is on earth!" Chu Feng's eyes were blazing with excitement.
But so many people had died here. This place was too strange and terrifying. How should he choose? Should he try?
"So many years have passed. Could it be that something bad has happened? Time should be able to erase everything. Perhaps this place won't be so strange anymore."
Chu Feng consoled himself like this as he approached the giant rock. After all, there was someone who had escaped. Even though he was crazy, he still managed to leave the land of reincarnation.
"I really can't help it. Over a month has passed. How are Yellow Cattle, Old Black, and Ouyang Feng? How are my parents? Are the people from the outer realm targeting them?!"
