Chapter 538: Chapter 538 Zero Boundary_1

"The seventh floor is full of strange occurrences. All day long, you can hear sounds in the hallway like a child bouncing a ball; and sometimes, even in broad daylight, you can see shadows moving. When no one’s around, you can hear people whispering,"

Hearing this, Yang Kai immediately became interested. He asked with a mischievous smile, "Uncle, what kind of whispering?"

"How would I know? Nobody dares to go up to the seventh floor now," came the reply.

Turning to Wei Shuxian, he asked, "Have you been to the seventh floor?"

Wei Shuxian nodded, "We’ve been there, but we didn’t hear any whispering. The sound of the ball did come and go, and we tried to find the source but couldn’t."

"In that case, let’s go check out the seventh floor."

As soon as the security guards heard mention of the seventh floor, they immediately refused, "If you want to go, be our guest, but we’d like to live a bit longer."

You couldn’t help but smile. You didn’t press them, understanding that life isn’t easy for anyone these days.

Yang Kai put his arm around Nie Ying’s shoulder and said with a laugh, "Wife, let’s go see what’s hiding up there."

Seeing the two heading towards the elevator, Wei Shuxian couldn’t help but call out to them, "Hey, this way."

Yang Kai turned around and saw that by then, you, along with Xian Qianling and Liao Yong, were already heading towards the staircase.

"Old Shu, we have an elevator, why take the stairs?" he asked.

You turned slightly and gave Yang Kai a glance without saying a word.

After a moment of confusion, Yang Kai got the hint. Holding Nie Ying’s hand, he came over and said cheerily, "I had no idea you were into this. Fine, fine, if it’s stairs we’re taking, it’s stairs we’ll take."

As good dormitory roommates who had built a strong rapport over the semester, you all understood each other well.

The six of you entered the stairwell and stood at the entrance. You placed your hand on the railing and looked both up and down the stairs.

Then, you, Wei Shuxian, Yang Kai, and Liao Yong looked at each other and nodded.

All four of you took out a piece of Talisman Paper from your pockets, folded them into Thousand Paper Cranes, then blew on them. The four paper cranes took flight: the one from your hand hovered at a specific spot above everyone’s heads, while the other three landed in a triangular formation on the ground. Then, you all formed a hand seal simultaneously and the cranes started to emit a faint yellow glow.

Xian Qianling watched with a hint of amazement as the four paper cranes formed a pyramid, including all six of you within it.

"Alright, now we can talk."

"I was suffocating; not being able to speak is almost killing me these days," Yang Kai said, turning to Nie Ying with a pretentiously smug expression, "Wife, you must be curious, right? Why we would deliberately create such a relatively independent spaced isolation barrier."

Nie Ying had expected Nie Ying to show an interested expression, but instead, she snorted coldly, "Anyone who’s not an idiot can see that this building has been set with a very special barrier; everything we do inside the building is being watched."

In terms of intelligence, Nie Ying could mercilessly crush Yang Kai; as for strength, Yang Kai was even less of a match for Nie Ying.

Although the two were boyfriend and girlfriend, in reality, most of the time, it was Nie Ying taking care of Yang Kai; in Nie Ying’s eyes, Yang Kai was like a child who always loved to cause a fuss and never grew up. She was like an elder sister, full of care, always looking after him.

Sticking out his tongue, Yang Kai turned his head to you and asked, "Old Shu, what’s the deal with this building?"

"The chaotic magnetic fields alone are enough to indicate that the location of this building is The place where Yin gathers; any place like this will definitely attract Demons and Monsters. All those strange things that the two security guards mentioned are caused by those entities."

Wei Shuxian pushed up his glasses and said to you, "I had also guessed this situation before, but there’s one thing I don’t understand, even if it’s The place where Yin gathers, those things shouldn’t come out during the daytime."

After a moment of silence, you spoke up, "For us, it’s daytime now, but for those ghosts, there’s no distinction between day and night."

"That side?" Wei Shuxian raised his eyebrows.

Xian Qianling asked urgently, "Which side?"

"Well... how to say this." You scratched your head, "We have never encountered this phenomenon before, but I’ve read about a similar description in a book."

"What does the book say?" Yang Kai asked.

You took out a coin from your pocket, tossed it into the air, then pinched it between your index and middle fingers, and said to everyone, "As you can all see, everything has a yin and yang side, a negative and positive pole. If we explain the existence of ghosts using Western scientific reasoning, it would be due to the chaos of negative and positive magnetic fields, causing memory entities to leave the body and exist independently. In Westerners’ view, if ghosts were to be judged in terms of negative and positive poles, they would belong to the negative pole, while humans are the positive pole. When a ghost’s own negative pole is too strong, it can consume the positive pole; and when the positive pole is strong, the ghosts will stay far away."

Seeing that the people nearby were listening attentively, you continued, "In the environment we usually live in, there will always be some dark, damp places, which belong to the yin; meanwhile, the places humans prefer to live in belong to the yang. Between these two places of yin and yang, due to some special circumstances, a completely new space might be created, which is what we call Zero Boundary."

"Zero Boundary?"

"Right, the so-called Zero is to exclude the existence of both negative and positive poles, and both sides of yin and yang." Saying this, you glanced around, "I originally thought this was just a theory, but I didn’t expect to actually encounter it, and that this Zero Boundary has already been utilized by someone."

Xian Qianling frowned and said, "You mean, someone is using this Zero Boundary to engage in illegal activities?"

Given Xian Qianling’s worldview, her mind immediately went to the Soul Refining Sect that you had eradicated earlier.

"I’m not sure whether it’s outside the bounds of the law, but one thing I can guarantee is that the person doing this is definitely not a good thing." Pausing, you continued, "Moreover, the person hidden behind the scenes is very cautious and meticulous. When we first entered the building, I didn’t feel anything unusual; if it weren’t for the two security guards who were already familiar with this place, we might not have been able to discover the existence of this Zero Boundary."

"What will the person behind the scenes use Zero Boundary for?" Nie Ying asked.

Shaking your head slightly, "It’s not clear at the moment, but it’s definitely not going to be anything good. The so-called Zero Boundary is actually just an independent space. It could have nothing inside, or it could hide extremely rich treasures; it might even be a twisted space where one could be crushed instantaneously upon entering!"
