A few days ago, these people were high spirited and arrogant. They didn't think anything of Ling Xian.
However, at this moment, they were lying in pools of blood. They were completely and utterly dead, and they could no longer enjoy the beauty of the world.
Their widened eyes were full of fear. It was obvious that before they died, they saw something horrifying.
This made Ling Xian smile.
Three days ago, these people used their power to humiliate him. This had infuriated him to the extreme and he swore to kill them.
Now that they were dead, they died in pain. Naturally, Ling Xian was able to vent his anger.
Although he did not kill them with his own hands, their deaths still caused his anger to completely dissipate, and he felt incomparably carefree.
"I told you, forcing me to give up the Soaring Key may not have been a good thing. Now you are reaping what you sowed."
Looking at these people who died with their eyes wide open, the corner of Ling Xian's lips curled up. The anger in his heart finally dissipated. Then, he furrowed his brows.
One thing was certain now. The Soaring Door was a trap. The goal was also clear. It was to kill people from the two realms.
But who was the mastermind?
Could it be that the person was trying to destroy the two realms?
Ling Xian wasn't sure. Or rather, he didn't think it was necessary.
If someone really was trying to destroy the two realms, then the two realms merging together was understandable. After all, doing this would prevent the Immortal Realm from giving birth to more powerhouses. If he was in their shoes, he would do the same.
However, the Soaring Door not only attracted powerful cultivators, it also attracted many low leveled spiritual beings. These spiritual beings were all unimportant.
"Could it be that I am overthinking things? The mastermind is just trying to kill more powerful cultivators and some low leveled spiritual beings? "
Ling Xian mumbled to himself, feeling like things weren't so simple.
It wasn't that he was being paranoid. It was that he learned many secrets along the way and couldn't help but connect all of them together.
"Aye, this really is hell."
Staring at the red light, Ling Xian sighed deeply. He remembered the hell the mysterious being spoke of.
Whether or not the mysterious being was telling the truth, this was true hell.
Even though Ling Xian didn't know how many people had come in these three days, there were at least tens of thousands of corpses. And this was just the beginning.
It could be foreseen that in the future, there would definitely be people who would be unable to resist the temptation and add another soul to this place. In that case, how could it not be considered as hell?
"A fake Soaring Door … I wonder how many lives it will kill." Ling Xian softly sighed. His gaze turned determined.
Regardless of whether the world believed him or not, he had to reveal the truth to the public, lest the people of the world die in vain.
Of course, the prerequisite was that his avatar could walk out of the Gate of Ascension. Otherwise, the credibility would undoubtedly be much lower.
Only when everyone saw him walk out of the Gate of Ascension with their own eyes could they believe it.
Therefore, Ling Xian was enraged.
He went all out and used all of his techniques to resist the mysterious power.
Unfortunately, he couldn't block it.
This strange power was far too powerful. It was definitely at the peak of the Integration Realm. Even if Ling Xian's original body was here, he wouldn't be able to stop it, let alone a clone.
"What terrifying power. It is no wonder the powerhouses at the peak of the Integration Realm died here."
Ling Xian bitterly smiled, knowing that he had no chance of getting out. He was also glad that he came with a clone. If his original body was here, then he would be dead.
"Oh well, the gap between us is far too big. There is no point in resisting." Ling Xian sighed and decided not to resist. After all, he couldn't win against it.
After he gave up resisting, the mysterious power instantly shattered his body. Then, it formed a strange magic array that led the essence of this clone to an unknown place.
This made Ling Xian, who was still conscious, shake. He seemed to have understood something.
After that, his consciousness dissipated.
At the same time, Ling Xian's face turned white and his blood boiled.
Since the avatar was destroyed, his original body was affected as well. Luckily, he wasn't heavily injured.
"This trip has confirmed my guess and I have gained something. However, there are still some questions that I haven't answered."
"First, who is the person behind this? Is it that mysterious being?"
"Second, what is the person's goal? Is it purely to kill the powerhouses from the two worlds, or does it have other intentions?"
Ling Xian's brows were tightly knitted together, full of confusion.
However, at least one thing was certain. The Soaring Door was fake. Even this legend could have been made up by the person behind this!
Thinking about this, Ling Xian shuddered.
To have been planning this since tens of thousands of years ago, to have the ability to create the Soaring Door and even fake the immortal's energy, how unbelievable was this?
How terrifying was this?
If this was anyone else, they would be shivering from head to toe!
"What a terrifying person behind this. Just what kind of powerhouse is he and why does he want to fight against the two worlds?"
Ling Xian frowned and thought about the array that appeared when he was destroyed. His heart was clouded by a layer of shadow.
If the array didn't appear, then he would've thought the person behind this was purely trying to kill the powerhouses from the two worlds. But after seeing his avatar's energy being led to an unknown place, he didn't think so.
There must be a deeper meaning for the person behind this to create the Soaring Door!
As for the specifics, he needed to continue investigating.
Therefore, Ling Xian's body flashed and he formed another avatar. He planned on entering the Soaring Door again.
Seeing that he once again appeared before the seven-colored door, everyone was stunned.
"Isn't that Ling Xian? Didn't he just go in? "
"Are my eyes playing tricks on me? Or did he just come out?"
"He can't have come out. We have been guarding this place and we haven't seen anyone come out!"
Everyone chimed in and couldn't figure out what was going on.
Hearing this, Ling Xian's heart skipped a beat. He suddenly had a thought. Why didn't he let everyone try using their avatars?
As long as they saw the hellish scene, they would naturally understand that the Gate of Ascension was a scam.
"Just now, I used my avatar and I saw the truth. This so-called Soaring Door doesn't lead to the immortal world, it leads to hell."
Ling Xian spoke softly, "If you don't believe me, then you can use your avatar to check it out."
At those words, a commotion arose.
Hell?
How is that possible?!
Everyone was in awe but they didn't argue. Because Ling Xian had already said that if they don't believe him, then they can use their avatars to check it out.
Everyone's eyes brightened at this.
The reason why everyone entered with their real bodies was because they believed too much in the legend of the Soaring Door and they didn't want to waste this opportunity.
What if it was real and the avatar ascends, would the original body be affected?
Even if it wouldn't, nobody dared to bet on it!
Therefore, everyone chose to enter with their original bodies. But before everyone's eyes, everyone was already suspicious. Plus, Ling Xian said it was hell. Everyone's thoughts naturally became active.
Immediately, the avatars materialized one after another and stepped through the Soaring Door.
Ling Xian did the same.
Then, he once again saw the immortal world. But after last time's experience, he naturally wouldn't be fooled.
Therefore, he summoned the Incantation of a Calm Heart and got rid of the illusion.
Then, before the mysterious power arrived, they started a thorough search of the area.
