At the end of the Road to the Underworld was the Village Viewing Platform.
It was said that before ghosts entered the King of Hell's Hall to await judgment, they would look back at their hometown.
After the time it took for an incense stick to burn.
Ye Chen and the rest rushed to the Village Viewing Platform. The sky was still dark as if it was late at night.
The so-called 'Village Viewing Platform' was actually just an ancient stone platform that stood among the many ancient buildings. Three ancient words were written on it.
Silence. Everything was so quiet, as if the entire Village Viewing Platform was a dead city.
The group kept looking around. Li Ying frowned and said, "That's strange. Where are the people who got here before us?"
After the changes in the Saints' Tomb and the four mummies attacked them, everyone else who entered Fengdu fled along the end of the Road to the Underworld apart from them.
However, they were nowhere to be seen.
The Patriarch of Hell shook his head slightly, "They must have gone deeper. After all, this Village Viewing Platform isn't the end."
However, Ye Chen did not say a word. He lifted his head and squinted at the sky. There was a faint gleam in his eyes.
"Fellow Ye, what are you looking at?" The Patriarch of Hell was puzzled.
"Nothing. Let's go!"
Ye Chen did not explain. Instead, he took another look at the dark sky and led everyone through the Village Viewing Platform.
For some reason, he had a feeling that someone was spying on him in the dark. However, when he extended his Divine Consciousness, he did not find anything wrong.
…
After passing the Village Viewing Platform, they arrived at the King of Hell's Hall.
Yama Palace. All ghosts would have to go through this trial, because this was where the Yama Kings of the Ten Palaces made their final conclusions about the past of a ghost.
Those who had committed great crimes would naturally be sent to the eighteenth level of hell. As for those who had never committed any crimes and were righteous and kind, they would naturally be arranged to be reincarnated.
The King of Hell's Hall in the scenic spot of Fengdu was considered to be in line with the fantasies of the world.
It was a rather awe-inspiring hall with a huge platform. The platform seemed to be a throne, and the stone wall behind it was engraved with all sorts of ferocious ghost patterns.
Everything made people feel as if they had really arrived at the legendary King of Hell's Hall when they were in such an environment.
At that moment, there were more than ten people gathered in the hall.
As Ye Chen and the rest walked in, these people looked at them at the same time. There was deep shock in their eyes.
Clearly, they did not expect Ye Chen and the rest to escape from the tiger's den after the four saint corpses mutated.
However, if one were to take a closer look, they would discover that all of them were injured. Some of them even had expressions of exhaustion and fear.
Li Ying couldn't help but ask, "What have you experienced?"
"Greetings, Sage Ye!"
A Quasi-Saint cupped his fists and said with a bitter smile, "We were attacked by unknown creatures along the way, and half of us died."
"An unknown creature?" Ye Chen was surprised.
"Not bad!"
Another person stood out and said, "They hide in the black fog and move like evil spirits. They are shapeless and formless, catching people off guard."
"Isn't this a tourist attraction? How could the unknown creature in the black fog of the Tomb of All Saints be so strange? "
"Could it really be the legendary Fengdu?"
"…"
Many people began to discuss with each other. Their faces were filled with fear, as if they regretted entering this place.
"Look, what's that?"
At this moment, someone cried out in surprise.
Everyone looked in the direction of his finger and saw a black book on an ancient table. It seemed to be able to absorb one's mind.
The words' Book of Life and Death 'were faintly written on it.
"Book of Life and Death? It's the legendary Book of Life and Death? "
"Why would there be a Book of Life and Death here? It can't be. Could it be that someone placed it here on purpose to scare us? "
"…"
Everyone stared at the black book. For a moment, it was extremely noisy, but no one dared to go forward.
"Palace Master, is there really a Book of Life and Death in this world?" Li Ying approached Ye Chen by instinct and said with an unnatural expression.
"Don't go over!"
Ye Chen shook his head lightly, but his gaze never left the black book. He could sense a cold aura from it.
"I'd like to see if it's really the Book of Life and Death!"
One of them scoffed and quickly walked forward. He picked up the black book on the table with one hand and began to size it up.
However, his body could not stop trembling. His eyes were dull and his pupils sunken as if he had seen something terrifying.
"What's wrong with him?"
"Brother Hong Ji, are you alright?"
Everyone was shocked by his reaction.
"Bang … …"
Hong Ji suddenly shuddered and put the Book of Life and Death back in his hand. He turned around and said, "The Book of Life and Death says that I can live to be 341 years old and will die from qi deviation …"
"How old are you now?" Someone asked with a smile.
Hong Ji's pupils constricted as he stammered, "Today is my 341 birthday …"
The person who spoke earlier smirked in disdain, "Doesn't that mean you're going to die today?"
"It also says that I can only transfer my death to someone else if I kill someone on the spot!" Hong Ji also laughed.
"What a scam!"
Another person called Chu Ye smiled and picked up the Book of Life and Death. He flipped through a few pages and started reading, "I'd like to see when I'll die …"
"Hahaha!"
He then laughed out loud, "It says that I'll die from poison today and die without a complete corpse. It also says that I can only survive if I cut off my left arm …"
Before he could finish his sentence, he heard a scream. He subconsciously turned around to look.
He saw that Hong Ji's aura had suddenly become chaotic and his expression was one of extreme pain. There were faint signs that his body was about to explode.
"Qi deviation? Did he really go berserk?"
"How is this possible? Wasn't he fine just now? "
Everyone was shocked and subconsciously took a few steps back.
Hong Ji was also shocked. He immediately sat down and adjusted his breathing, as if he wanted to resolve the violent yuan qi in his body.
"Bang … …"
The next moment …
Under everyone's horrified gazes, Hong Ji's body suddenly exploded with a loud bang, turning into a cloud of blood mist. An incomparably violent energy splattered in all directions.
Dead silence. The scene was dead silent!
A Sage-to-be had died just like that. Furthermore, it was due to inexplicable qi deviation.
What kind of joke was this? Hong Ji was a Sage-to-be. His understanding of cultivation had already reached the point of perfection!
How could he make such a low-level mistake like qi deviation? However, the truth was right in front of them. They had no choice but to believe it!
Chu Ye, who had just finished reading the Book of Life and Death, was completely stunned. "How … how is this possible?"
Chu Ye roared hysterically. He then exerted force in his palm and crushed the Book of Life and Death in his hand, turning it into countless fragments that fell to the ground.
However, the next scene caused everyone's expressions to completely change.
