Chapter 419: Chapter 419: Long-standing Enmity_1

"What’s the method?"

"Come, stand on the edge of this staircase first."

"Okay."

You did as told and stood on the edge of the staircase, at which point an abyss lay before you.

Huh? Why do I suddenly have a bad feeling?

"And then..." Grandma Meng stretched out her hand and suddenly pushed you from behind!

"Ah—"

Your scream extended endlessly as you immediately fell into the bottomless abyss!

Grandma Meng stood at the edge of the stairs, watching you consumed by the darkness, a faint smile on her face, "Silly boy, elder sister can only help you this much. From here on, it’s all on you."

You were still falling.

Falling endlessly, as if the dark abyss had no bottom.

From the initial discomfort to now being able to balance yourself, it felt like several days had passed.

When you looked at your digital watch on your wrist, you found that it had stopped!

Gradually, you realized that the speed of your fall was slowing down.

This noticeable feeling made you take out two Yellow Vermilion Charms from your pocket immediately.

"Wind curse!"

Two whirlwinds significantly slowed your fall, and before long, your feet finally touched solid ground.

"Phew—"

You let out a long breath.

Darkness still enveloped your surroundings, and a layer of mist permeated the air, obscuring visibility.

Sen Luo Eye, open!

Through the Sen Luo Eye, you discovered that the surrounding mist was actually black, and it was this mist that made your vision very blurry. On closer inspection, you were horrified to find that the black fog seemed to be mixed with something else, fine like sand.

You reached out towards the black mist, allowing some of it to land in the palm of your hand.

Feeling the black mist in the palm of your hand, you closed your eyes.

Then, many images flashed before your eyes, all jumbled up, but clearly, they were the memories of a person’s life!

A single grain of sand carrying all of a person’s memories?

What did that mean?

Was this black grain of sand a person’s soul?

At that thought, you suddenly felt a chill run down your spine, and instinctively, your body’s hairs stood on end!

The black sand was floating all around, and the place where you were seemed like a garbage disposal site—or rather, a processing ground for fragmented souls.

These black grains of sand were lifeless, only bearing fragmented memory snippets. After reading a few of them, you gave up, as the souls spanned several centuries.

Knowing you couldn’t stay here long, you began to stride forward, running even.

The floating black sand could not cling to you, as they were repelled by a strange energy before even touching you.

Therefore, as you ran along, you didn’t feel anything unusual about your body.

Huh?

There was light ahead!

After running for a while, you saw a faint glimmer of light at the end of your vision.

The closer you got to the light, the gentler your movements became.

Grandma Meng had made it clear that inside this Heavenless Hell, there were stationed a hundred thousand Underworld Soldiers, whom you had seen before. They were each formidable and powerful, looking monstrous and fierce. Maybe you could hold your own for a while against a dozen or so of them, but if a group came, heh heh, your only option would be to run away.

As you reached the edge of darkness, you looked up slightly and discovered that the light was actually about a hundred meters above you.

Reaching out to touch the edge of the darkness in front of you, you found that it was actually a wall, a wall made of some unknown material that was chilling to the touch. It was this wall that blocked the transmission of light, trapping you in the darkness as well.

Just as you were pondering how to scale the wall, suddenly, the thundering sound of horse hooves came from behind!

You were startled.

You turned around to look into the depths of the darkness.

"All Forms of Sen Luo, flew!"

Your gaze flew past!

At about a thousand meters ahead, you saw a Cavalry Team charging towards your direction at full speed!

Had they discovered you?

You were startled and began running along the black wall towards another direction at full speed.

As you were running, you suddenly tripped over something and fell flat on the ground.

In the blink of an eye, the Cavalry Team was already upon you.

Just as you were preparing to get up, a loud call came from within the Cavalry Team, "Open Gate!"

Shortly after, the wall, towering a hundred meters high, slowly opened, and the bright but not glaring light quickly illuminated this dark world.

When the light entered this dark world, the first thing you saw was a Cavalry Team of about a hundred men, led by a middle-aged man who looked handsome, dashing, and imposing. However, there was a mean streak at the corners of his eyes, such men were usually deeply scheming, not the kind to be trifled with.

When the gate was completely open, the Cavalry Team then charged straight through it.

The last of the Cavalry entered the gate, and the giant doors began to close slowly.

At this moment, you quickly stood up and immediately flew two Yellow Vermilion Charms from your pocket; they swiftly affixed themselves to your lower legs. After that, you formed a Hand Seal and chanted lowly, "Fast Divine Transportation Curse!"

Your body whizzed through the darkness and, in the instant the giant gate was about to close, you rushed into the world of light.

After entering this bright world, you didn’t have time to take a close look but charged towards an area resembling a forest to your left and quickly climbed up a tree lush with leaves that could completely conceal you.

Hiding among the tree branches, you watched as the Cavalry Team kicked up dust as they sped away.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, your gaze detached from your body to take in this marvelous world.

The moment you clearly saw this world, you were captivated by the beautiful sight before you. It was beautiful, too beautiful.

Compared to the dark world outside, this was the difference between heaven and hell!

Take, for instance, the place where you were currently situated. Not far in front of you was a clear and broad lake, where flocks of birds flew and fish swam to and fro with apparent ease.

Further away were rising mountain peaks, lush with greenery, sweet-scented with the breeze, creating an idyllic scene between the blue sky and white clouds.

This was a world filled with the songs of birds and blossoming flowers, where animals lived leisurely as if there was no bloodshed and all creatures coexisted harmoniously.

"What... what kind of place is this?"

Within a ten-kilometer radius, apart from the Cavalry Team that kept on rushing down the road, you couldn’t see anyone else.

In helplessness, you could only rely on the Cinnabar Talismans, using the Fast Divine Transportation Curse to dash through the brush, following the Cavalry Team from a distance.

When they reached the foot of a mountain, they finally stopped to rest and regroup.

These were all Underworld Soldiers, and that leading man gave you a very dangerous feeling. Therefore, you stayed at least two thousand meters away, only able to watch them from afar through the Sen Luo Eye.

Seeing them sit down to rest, a younger man with features somewhat similar to the imposing man approached and the two began to talk.

As they talked, their expressions appeared somewhat strange, as if they were plotting something.

You really wanted to know the information they were discussing, so you formed a Hand Seal and whispered, "Myriad Manifestation of Sen Luo, Sound Valley."

"Father, who would have thought? That bitch Wu Wanhui would actually be locked up in this Heavenless Hell!" The handsome man’s face suddenly contorted viciously, "Hmph, the grudge that has accumulated over more than fourteen hundred years can finally be settled today!"
