Most parts of Hell were barren and desolate. There were no plants or animals, only pitch-black land and equally pitch-black mountains.
Due to the strange geographical shape, these mountains looked like the back of some kind of monster. They towered above the land, towering and sinister.
The sky of Hell. Perhaps it shouldn't be called the sky. If one had to use a more accurate description, it would be a space above one's head.
Because from the space above, one couldn't see the vast starry sky that one imagined, or the blue sky produced by the refraction of the star's light through the atmosphere.
The space above Li Jie and the others was just a thick layer of fog, even though they were very far away from each other. Although they were separated by a long distance, the blood-red fog still gave this place a very oppressive feeling.
The blood-red fog seemed to have a life of its own, often forming all kinds of strange images above. Most of them were grotesque and strange, and sometimes revealed a terrifying aura.
It was unknown if the other parts of Hell were the same, or if only this part was like this. Because according to Bart and Johnny, the space where Hell was located was actually quite large.
It was precisely because of the size of this space that it could accommodate so many Lords of different factions and systems.
None of these Greater Demons were easy to deal with, even though they were extremely advanced life systems. These Demon Lords had relatively rational restraints, unlike in myths and legends, where they were unscrupulously bloody and chaotic.
The place where Li Jie and the others were now not far from the City of the Dead. According to Bart, if Tony's Iron Man Corps flew at full speed, they might only need half an hour to reach the City of the Dead.
In a sense, this distance was really not far. Although Tony's battle armor could fly thousands of kilometers in half an hour, as Bart had said before, it wasn't a good place to go.
But as Bart had said before, the current vicinity of the City of the Dead wasn't a good place to go. A large number of Hell Lords were gathered there, and it was a very dangerous thing to get too close to them.
The purpose of Li Jie's visit was to stop Doom and find a chance to kill Kim Pyong. Instead of foolishly running over to a group of Hell Lords and causing trouble, he couldn't do anything about it.
In fact, one could occasionally see some strange magical beasts even in the outskirts of the thousand kilometers. For example, there were monsters with bat wings, red bodies, and flames burning on their ankles.
Unlike the goat-horned demons he had seen before, these monsters didn't seem to be particularly intelligent.
"Those are demonic bats. Although they look like humans, they are not intelligent creatures. It's a magical creature created by magic, "Bart said as he pointed at a demonic bat that was circling in the sky in the distance.
Li Jie and the others were on the slope of a hill. Because of the angle, it seemed that the Demon Bat did not notice them.
"This is the outermost area, where detection and detection are very loose. However, the deeper you go, the more patrols and soldiers you will find," Bart said as he watched the demon bat fly away from the area.
"At least for a period of time, there won't be a second scout patrolling here. I heard that the Hell Lords have recently formed a very loose alliance. Perhaps they will give up attacking each other before they repel the Doma. Of course, all of this is uncertain. "
"This is the place you said we have to pass through?" Li Jie glanced at the towering mountain range on both sides. The black mountains were like sharp spikes that pierced through the red clouds and went deeper into the mist.
The continuous mountain range was like a huge arm, dividing the two sides of the mountain range into two naturally different worlds.
It was the first time Li Jie saw a river in Hell. It was at the bottom of the valley on the other side of the mountain range. Although there was no sunlight shining on it, it was still dazzling.
It was unusually eye-catching in this black land.
"The River of Souls," Johnny said as he looked at the river in the distance.
It wasn't that Johnny knew the origin of this river, but the memories of Zatanos, the spirit of vengeance in his body, told him what it was.
"What's the origin of this river?" Li Jie was a little curious. Since the beginning of human exploration, the development of all civilizations and the continuation of life couldn't be separated from the river. It could be said that only places where water veins gathered could have brilliant civilizations or life.
"The River of Souls. Legend has it that souls are born from reincarnation. If the dead don't have the Holy Kingdom that they believe in and accept them, the last place they go is the City of the Dead. From there, they embark on a journey into the River of Souls and begin a new cycle of reincarnation. " Start a new cycle. "The Spirit of Vengeance, Zarathanos, displayed his knowledge.
"No one knows where the River of Souls starts flowing, and no one knows where it ends. But everyone knows that this is the destination of most of the dead. "
"The River of Souls flows through most dimensions, and there are traces of it in many places in the universe. The starting point of the River of Souls in Hell is the City of the Dead. " Johnny Blaze said this as if he was in a dream. Even he didn't notice what he was saying.
Li Jie was also a little surprised. As a spirit of vengeance born in Hell, he might know Hell very well. But was this extremely secretive knowledge really just common knowledge from Hell? Or could it be that the Spirit of Vengeance in Johnny's body was extraordinary?
Because of his previous life, Li Jie had always felt that Ghost Rider's Johnny was the main character in this series. Since Johnny was the protagonist, he must be extraordinary. Judging from his previous fight with Johnny, he wasn't as strong as a Ghost Rider should be.
But it was precisely because of this unusual or unorthodox Ghost Rider that Li Jie felt that Johnny was a little special.
"If I want to go to the City of the Dead, I must find the River of Souls. This was common knowledge among the creatures of Hell. My master had disguised himself and went to the City of the Dead many times. Of course, it was when the guard was lax and there was no war in hell. "Demon Bart's words interrupted Li Jie's train of thought.
"The City of the Dead is very special. If you don't follow the River of Souls, you will never find the City of the Dead. And this was the tail end of the River of Souls in Hell. The only way to reach the City of the Dead is to trace the source from here. "
