Hell's Gate, these three ancient characters were somewhat special. They were shaped like seal script, very similar to those oracle bone inscriptions on Earth. It was unknown how long they had existed, but they made Jiang Xiaofan's mind tremble, revealing an expression of disbelief.
"This …"
To the Earthling Jiang Xiaofan, these three characters were absolutely not unfamiliar.
Hell's Gate, a pass of the underworld in ancient China's myths and legends. It was also known as the Yin Yang Path, the intersection point between the world of Yin and the world of the living. It was a border of death, and it was said that behind the gate was the legendary hell.
The surroundings were gloomy and ghostly fog pervaded the air. A stone tablet as tall as a person stood horizontally in front of them. It was unknown how many tens of thousands of years it had been preserved, but it was full of thick traces of time, emitting an ancient and heavy feeling.
"According to ancient legends, after crossing the Hell's Gate, one will fall into the cycle of reincarnation, no longer human."
A group of people stood in front of the stone tablet, their expressions varied, but they all stopped here and did not take another step forward. The legends of ancient times were somewhat illusory, but they still made people afraid. Those three characters had a kind of strange magic.
"This … we had better retreat. If we go back, I …"
Su Xing spoke, suggesting that everyone retreat.
He himself also subconsciously turned around to look back, but it was at this moment that he was directly stunned. His body trembled, and he stumbled back five or six steps. His eyes were filled with fear, and cold sweat flowed down his forehead.
"This is?"
Everyone tilted their heads, and suddenly they were all shocked.
Behind them, the path they had walked before had unexpectedly disappeared. It was hazy, as if it was constructed from chaos. Jiang Xiaofan picked up a piece of rock from the ground and threw it in. It did not make the slightest ripple, and it was silently swallowed up.
"What do we do?" Qin Ra asked.
Although the road behind them disappeared in a very strange manner, which made their hair stand on end, they didn't feel any fear because of the so-called 'skill comes from boldness'. Since they had entered this space, they knew that the things that happened here were very unusual.
"There's a small line of words below …" Ye Yuanxue blinked her eyes and pointed at the bottom of the three ancient characters. There was a small line of seal script there. She read it word by word: "The Gates of Hell are wide open. Do not enter. Take a step back and you will be at peace."
Jiang Xiaofan's face twitched. He really wanted to curse at the stone tablet. She had cut off their path of retreat and then said that they would be able to take a step back. This was a typical example of a whore wanting to establish a monument to her chastity. She really deserved a beating.
"We can only move forward …" He finally shook his head slightly and took a step forward. A golden light flashed in his eyes as he said, "Hell's Gate. I don't believe that I'll become a ghost after crossing it. Do you think I'm scared?"
Swish …
He took a step forward and stood on the ground behind the stone tablet. Nothing happened.
Bing Xin and the others naturally didn't feel fear. They were all extraordinary figures, and among the younger generation of the Emperor Star, they were definitely the strongest, especially the three women. They were all supreme existences of the younger generation. Although the Gates of Hell were a bit scary, it couldn't stop them from moving forward.
"You guys, this …"
Su Xingzi wanted to say something, but in the end, he helplessly followed everyone into the so-called Gates of Hell. There was no way around it. There was no way back. They had to move forward, otherwise they would be trapped in place.
Huff … Huff …
A cold wind blew past, and the air behind the stone tablet became even more humid. A thick fog of death floated in every corner of the space, making people feel as if they had really entered hell. Their skin was cold.
Su Xingzi was a bit frightened and kept looking into the distance, very vigilant.
"Gurgle gurgle …"
A withered yellow skull was kicked and rolled on the ground very far away. Its two empty eyes stared at the group, as if a ghost was staring in their direction, making people feel cold all over.
The ground was scorched black, and the underworld was scarlet. They seemed to be walking on mud, and the ground was covered in yellow water, releasing an unpleasant stench. It was like the smell of burnt oil refined from rotting bodies, and it was extremely disgusting.
"This is the Gates of Hell, nothing special. Which bastard left behind these words?"
Qin Ra curled his lips.
There was nothing special about the space behind the stone tablet. At least, after they stepped over the stone tablet, they did not find anything threatening. Other than the dense fog of death, they did not even see a mouse.
"Hua …"
Pushing aside the dense fog, Ye Xiwen advanced for another thousand feet before a long river appeared in front of him. The water was reddish-yellow, and there were fist-sized bubbles rising from the bottom of the river. Then, they burst on the surface of the river and emitted wisps of steam, which appeared strange green.
"It stinks!"
Ye Yuanxue frowned and pinched her nose.
The long river extended. They did not know where the source was, nor did they know where the end was. From that direction, a rotten smell was emitted from time to time, pervading this space. It made the three girls frown, very uncomfortable.
"There's something on the river's surface."
Chen Yifeng said, pointing forward. There were many indistinct floating objects there.
Jiang Xiaofan and the others looked over, and their eyes flickered with divine light. They used their Divine Intents to scan, and then their bodies suddenly shook. A cold air rushed from the soles of their feet to their heads, and they felt as if they were in a bottomless abyss of ice.
The blurry floating objects gradually became clearer under the scanning of everyone's divine senses. They were actually rotting corpses that covered the entire surface of the river. Moreover, there were even more corpses floating down from the upper reaches of the river, flowing into the distance along the long river.
A river of corpses!
"Damn, what kind of lousy place is this!"
Qin Ra muttered, shrinking his neck. He was really a bit frightened.
Weng …
Suddenly, Jiang Xiaofan's expression changed. The silver copper plate in his body began to tremble, releasing traces of divine splendor.
It was different from that kind of resonance between the divine copper plates of the same quality and origin. This time, the vibration carried a sense of warning, making Jiang Xiaofan's nerves immediately tense. To be able to make the mysterious copper plate in his body emit a warning, that indicated that this place contained an exceptional danger.
Swish …
He suddenly turned around, and two rays of dazzling silver light shot out from his eyes, piercing through the dense fog not far away.
"What's the matter?"
Ye Qiuyu asked. Bing Xin and the others also looked over. Towards Jiang Xiaofan's actions, they were clearly somewhat puzzled. Beside them, Su Xingzi's body trembled, and the vigilance on his face became even more intense. He was somewhat frightened.
"There's something!"
Ye Yuanxue suddenly spoke, following Jiang Xiaofan's gaze. She had the ability to control space, so she could feel the slightest vibration in space. At this moment, the space in front of them produced a weak vibration.
The dense fog dispersed, and in that hazy fog, an old man wearing ancient clothing stepped out. His face was expressionless, and his expression was stiff. He walked mechanically towards the direction of the group, his eyes not containing the slightest fluctuation of emotion.
"There's actually someone here!"
Looking at this mysterious figure, the group was all shocked.
Jiang Xiaofan frowned. It was also at this time that the seven-colored divine lake in his body faintly appeared. The palm-sized silver divine copper continuously trembled, and a wisp of water-like divine splendor spread towards his eyes. On the spot, his whole body shook, and his expression changed greatly.
"Don't look at it!"
He spoke in a low voice, stopping everyone.
It was also at this time that footsteps sounded from several other directions. Similar figures stepped out of the dense fog, and the clothes on their bodies were all different, but they were all very ancient. They were like old men past their prime. Their movements were slow, and their movements were mechanical, like walking corpses.
"Who are these people?"
Everyone acutely sensed that something was wrong, and all of them frowned.
"Don't move!" Jiang Xiaofan transmitted with his divine sense, and said in a low voice, "They're not humans!"
They're not humans!
These three words reverberated in everyone's hearts, and instantly caused a chill to rise in their hearts.
They were all powerful cultivators, and naturally did not have any fear towards the so-called demons and monsters in their hearts. However, there were really too many strange figures in this place. In the blink of an eye, tens of thousands of strange figures appeared on the Crimson Earth that was as empty as a plain. They walked slowly, as if they were looking for food.
Squeak, squeak, squeak … The sound of footsteps reverberated, and in just a moment, they were already surrounded by figures. When they were close, the faces of these figures could be seen clearly. They were no different from normal people, but their pupils were very empty and somewhat numb.
Suddenly, a female's face stuck in front of Qin Ra's eyes, and stared blankly at him. She twisted her head at a vertical angle of 130 degrees, and he was so shocked that he broke out in cold sweat. He almost could not help but throw a punch at her. Too disgusting!
"Don't move!"
Jiang Xiaofan transmitted with his divine sense. The Silver Copper in his body was still slightly trembling.
An extremely ominous feeling rose in his heart, and he directly transmitted it to everyone's hearts with his divine sense, telling them not to move. He had a kind of absurd and realistic feeling, as if they only needed to move, they would attract the evil ghost king.
"Don't worry."
Bing Xin and Ye Qiuyu were both powerhouses. Since they could be called the Young Supremes, their mental state cultivation naturally would not be too bad. They simply did not care about everything in the outside world. They looked indifferently, without the slightest fluctuation in their emotions, unmoving like boulders.
As for Ye Yuanxue, she was completely fearless. She did not move, but she stared unblinkingly at those strange figures in front of her. She did not care about these things in the slightest, as if she was looking for some secret.
Among the group, only Su Xingzi was terrified, and his legs were trembling. Beside him, several figures seemed to have sensed something, and slowly surrounded him. Their complexions were deathly pale, and they stared fixedly at him. Their cracked lips slightly opened, and their throats let out inhuman cries.
"Don't move, they can't sense you!"
Jiang Xiaofan's heart froze, and he transmitted his voice to Su Xingzi.
On the other side, Qin Ra and the others also sensed the change in this person's demeanor, and they all frowned.
Su Xingzi was endlessly terrified, and his pupils violently jumped. As more and more strange figures gathered, his legs trembled even more violently. In the end, he took a step back, let out a terrified roar, and smashed a fist at the figure approaching him.
"Damn it!"
Jiang Xiaofan roared in his heart. At this moment, the Silver Copper in his body suddenly trembled violently, and that ominous feeling became heavier and heavier. Finally, in the midst of the undulating ghostly howls, it attacked him, making his physique comparable to an Emperor level powerhouse tremble.
"Ugh!"
"Aooo!"
One after another, inhuman roars sounded. The strange figures that were moving slowly just a moment ago all faced the sky and howled. A terrible evil aura swept through the surroundings, and a monstrous green light surged in the air. An unparalleled aura of death surged in every inch of space.
"Boom …"
In the distant Corpse River, reddish-yellow fishy water soared into the sky. A pitch-black ghost palace floated up, and three tall figures stepped out from it. Their eyes were blood red, and their Yin Qi overflowed to the heavens, making everyone's souls tremble.
The reddish-yellow water splashed everywhere, and a pitch-black ghost palace rose from the bottom of the river. Black fog curled around it, and the three figures stepped out side by side, making everyone tremble. It was as if their souls were about to crack, and they were indescribably terrified.
"Damn it!"
Jiang Xiaofan was inwardly furious, and the Silver Copper in his body trembled even more violently. That ominous premonition had come true. This place really did have an exceptional crisis. Those three tall figures were too frightening, and they were absolutely not inferior to the Four Great Demonic Kings.
"Do you want to kill us!"
Qin Ra directly roared. The others were also furious, and they all stared at Su Xingzi. It was all because of this person. If it weren't for him, how could there be a scene of a hundred ghosts screaming at night? It was simply impossible to draw out that pitch-black ghost palace.
"I … I …"
Su Xingzi trembled, staring at the strange figures all around him. His face carried fear, and his lips were trembling.
There were a few indistinct carvings on the ground, which seemed to be some kind of mysterious array. Just now, when Su Xingzi fearfully attacked, those carvings clearly emitted light, as if they had received some kind of stimulation. Resuscitation of these ghost figures came over, and pairs of dense eyes stared at everyone at the same time, carrying greed and excitement.
"Eh!"
"Ao!"
The group of ghosts ruthlessly roared, their eyes dark green as they attacked everyone.
"Heh, heh …"
Dense evil laughter reverberated in the air, making everyone simultaneously tremble.
On the red ground, these strange figures did not have the slightest bit of life aura, nor did they have the slightest bit of soul fluctuations. What they had was only an endless aura of death and a sinister light. Those pairs of eyes all became dark green. At this moment, they unexpectedly were no longer sluggish, nor were they stiff. Like a pack of wild wolves in the darkness, they let out a sinister laugh.
