The aura of desolation pervaded the air, taking away all life. Even powerful gods like Ye Qinghan couldn't break free from the shackles. Only plant life forms were unaffected.
The blade-like leaves were luxuriant and lush, and spiritual herbs were everywhere. They were all of the best quality, making people drool. The divine herbs here had existed for countless years without anyone picking them. They aged and formed seeds, causing the number of divine herbs to increase and attract more creatures.
Some white bones were hidden under the withered leaves, and a light step would make a crisp sound.
Ye Qinghan casually pushed aside the withered leaves under his feet and found piles of white bones in the depths. They had been dead for countless years, and he couldn't help but be shocked.
The deeper they went, the higher the grade of the divine herbs, and the denser they were. However, the bones hidden under the withered leaves were harder and harder, like divine weapons. It was clear how powerful they were when they were alive.
The five of them looked at each other with serious expressions and continued to move forward.
Thump, thump, thump — — —
Muffled sounds came from the depths, as if the mountain was sleeping. The beating of a heart beat in the sky, and a terrifying sound reverberated.
As they went deeper, they could see divine herbs of the high god level, divine fruits, and the like, which were more and more attractive. It would make people's greed infinitely greater, and the ferocious beasts would also continue to go deeper. This was also the reason why there were so many white bones in this mountain range.
This independent mountain range extended all the way into the depths. Ye Qinghan and the others took out their divine weapons and moved forward step by step. Although they didn't encounter any danger, their life force was rapidly dissipating. It was as if a year had passed with every step.
"I keep feeling that some creature is attracting us to go deeper, taking away our life force. No wonder the divine orchids of enlightenment rarely appear here," Ye Qinghan said hoarsely.
"This is a forbidden area. This is only the periphery. My race rarely enters here, and I've reached this position at most. If we go any deeper, the speed of our life force dissipating will obviously increase." Jiang Jingtian looked at the valley. After this valley, the aura was completely different. This was Death Valley.
In the valley, a river ran from north to south. The mountain range was deep, and there were colors everywhere. Flowers bloomed and green, swaying with the wind. It was like a fairyland. A large number of divine fruits emitted a rich fragrance. The fist-sized divine peaches were filled with life force, and even the flesh was red. It was extremely tempting.
This peach was called the Spirit-Concentrating Peach. Eating it could refine one's soul, and allow a mortal to quickly become a lower god. Even their soul was extremely close to the realm of god. This was the best way to cultivate mortals, but there were not many of them.........
Ye Qinghan jumped into the valley and plucked a Spirit-Concentrating Peach. He put it into his mouth and took a bite. It was refreshing, sweet, and very tasty. It could calm the mind and condense the soul, but this level of divine fruit could only quench his thirst. It wouldn't be of much use.
"What a strange place. Other than plants and divine medicines, there are no other living creatures. Such a large mountain range is simply inconceivable." Zi Xian exclaimed.
"No, there are some creatures. However, their vitality is not strong, but their killing power is very strong. They live on the other side of the valley." Jiang Jingtian immediately said.
. Splash. Splash.
The river flowed. It was so clear that one could see the bottom. There wasn't even any fish.
Ye Qinghan came to the river and squatted down. He reached out to touch the water. He felt a chill in the depths of his soul. The water wasn't cold, but it was filled with a ruthless aura. It was like the aura of death that affected the emotions of living things.
"There's something wrong with this water. Where does it come from?" Ye Qinghan asked curiously.
Jiang Jingtian thought for a moment and said, "It comes from the depths. This river runs from north to south, but 300 miles north, it turns and runs from east to west. I don't know where it ends. I once followed this river to the west, but I met a demon wolf before I reached the end."
"This water has the aura of death. There's no life force. It reminds me of a legendary place …" Ye Qinghan said faintly.
"What place?" Li Feng and the others asked curiously.
"Yellow Springs! Yellow Springs Water! "Ye Qinghan said with certainty.
Hell? The true land of reincarnation, not the Nine Nether Plane. It only absorbed the deaths of some living things and was responsible for their reincarnation. However, a slightly stronger master god couldn't reincarnate. Hell, on the other hand, had a complete system of laws. No one could break free from its restraints. Even the Supreme Gods were bound by hell.
"You mean to say that this Abyss World leads to the final land of reincarnation, hell?" everyone asked in unison.
"It's possible. However, this water has been diluted by pure water. I'm not sure." Ye Qinghan pondered.
This time, Jiang Jingtian fell silent. As a native, he didn't dare to be sure of what was in the depths. He also didn't think that it was hell.
The Nine Paths of Reincarnation were illusory. They complemented the Heavenly Dao and bound all things. It had always been a legendary existence. No one had seen hell, and no one had seen any living things that came out of hell. People even suspected that hell was just a shackle that bound the gods and that it didn't really exist.
"Brother Jing Tian, do you know where this river flows after detouring from here?" Ye Qinghan looked up at the valley. He found that the river was more than 30 meters wide and thousands of miles deep. He couldn't see the end.
Jiang Jingtian thought about it and suddenly realized. "This river crosses the entire width of the mountain range and then goes back. This river surrounds the entire Enlightenment Mountain."
"Interesting. If this river is really Yellow Springs Water, then Enlightenment Mountain is really interesting." Ye Qinghan's lips curled into a strange smile. He didn't feel any reverence for the depths, only curiosity. He wanted to know everything about this mountain.
The five of them didn't hesitate to cross the valley and the river. When they reached the other side of the valley, they saw a path that led to the heavens. On the side of the path was a stone tablet with the words: Great Barren Mountain.
Ye Qinghan suddenly felt the vitality in his body pouring out like a waterfall. His soul was about to be sucked dry.
Whoosh — —
Jiang Jingtian, Li Feng, and the others retreated into the valley in an instant. Their faces were deathly pale. For a moment, they could clearly feel that they had stepped into hell and not the Great Barren Mountain.
Ye Qinghan only hesitated for a moment. His face turned old and his limbs were weak. He knelt down on one knee, his black hair turning yellow.
Hmph!
Ye Qinghan groaned. He mobilized his godly power and began to fight for the vitality. His soul expanded crazily. His eyes revealed a fierce light as he stared at the chaotic runes and the words' Great Barren Mountain '. Suddenly, an inexplicable image appeared in his mind. It had nothing to do with him.
The evolution of hell, the profound meaning of reincarnation, the abstruse law runes, and the endless skeletons and corpses all revolved crazily in a passage, pulling his soul into the depths.
"Come back …"
A low call exploded in Ye Qinghan's sea of consciousness. This tearing force was tens of millions of times more terrifying than the small reincarnation in the Nine Underworlds. It was on a completely different level.
