Chapter 316: True Realm Rift

Li Heng stood on the Bone Boat and looked down.

This Law Chaos Land is truly wondrous; for instance, the Five Elements laws have fallen into chaos, allowing water and fire to coexist in one place. Water and space have merged, making the originally formless space tangible, like the surface of a lake.

Some areas are even more extremely chaotic.

He could vaguely sense that even time and space had become confused and blurred; if one were to stay in such a place for too long, one might encounter a situation where a game of chess lasts until the handle rots, with days on the mountain equating to a thousand years in the World.

"Everyone, be careful."

"We are about to enter the Hexinquyu of that Ghost Place's influence, where even the laws of Life and Death have fallen into chaos; if one is not careful, one will become a monster that is neither living nor dead."

After his confusion, the Judge spoke up again to warn them.

To think that even these demons and Weird entities would call it a monster.

One can imagine just how terrifying the monster is.

The demons and Weird entities nodded; they knew the gravity of the situation.

They were not fools to have achieved a Dharma Aspect. If they did not even know what the Ghost Place was, they would not have run here to throw their lives away.

At this moment, the Judge walked toward Li Heng, revealing a warm smile.

"My friend, I wonder how you are feeling."

"Just average," Li Heng replied calmly.

"Uh... My friend, did you happen to see a shadow-type Weird earlier?" Seeing Li Heng's cold attitude, the Judge found it difficult to continue the pleasantries and got straight to the point.

He had just seen the Venerable walk toward this Living Dead.

At the time, he was secretly delighted, thinking the Venerable had listened to his advice and was going to deal with this Living Dead, but now this Living Dead was still alive, while the Venerable was nowhere to be found.

This was truly too strange for a Weird.

"Oh, you mean that shadow? It's dead."

Li Heng said quite honestly.

Upon hearing this, the Judge's expression stiffened. After a brief silence, he laughed out loud. "My friend, you really know how to joke. But since you don't know, I will go ask others. We are about to see the real Ghost Place, so you should prepare yourself."

As he spoke, he slowly walked away, a cold sneer on his face.

Does this Living Dead really take him for a fool?

The Venerable is at the level of a Heavenly Weird, and a very powerful Heavenly Weird at that.

How could it possibly die?

However, since this Living Dead treats him with such an attitude, he must harbor ill intentions toward him as well. Therefore, he must find an opportunity to kill this Living Dead!

Soon, the Bone Boat stopped flying.

Because they had arrived at the edge of the real Ghost Place.

The demons and Weird entities looked at the scene before them and fell into silence; some had even begun to think of retreating. Hearing of it is not as good as seeing it; seeing it in person, this Ghost Place was truly too terrifying.

Because this Ghost Place was a Heavenly Abyss, an Abyss!

The vast and boundless Yin World earth was severed by a pitch-black Abyss that stretched for countless miles, wide and boundless, with no visible opposite shore; the Rift was still constantly expanding, devouring the Yin World!

In the Abyss, the Heavenly Abyss, and the Rift, there was not a sliver of light.

It was as if even light had been devoured.

"This... is truly too terrifying."

A white bone skeleton kept muttering, then turned and fled.

It did not even dare to look again.

"Everyone, what do you think? Having witnessed this with your own eyes, the true name of this place has likely emerged in your minds."

The Judge said with a grave expression.

Even though he had encountered this thing more than once, every time he saw it, he felt incredibly shocked, feeling like an ant.

The demons and Weird entities nodded.

The moment they saw this Ghost Place, under the influence of the power from the nether, they already knew the true name of this place.

"True Realm Rift."

This name is quite normal, yet it cannot be spoken.

They tried to say the name, but could not get it out.

A few demons and Weird entities did not believe it; they erupted with all their might, their Dharma Aspects reflecting themselves, and even used trump cards at the Heavenly Weird level, wanting to force those four words out.

Then, in an instant.

They died directly, their bodies exploding.

The Judge was not surprised.

Every time he brought people to this Ghost Place, there were always such hot-headed fools who feared nothing, and these were always the ones who died the fastest.

"Everyone must take this as a warning and never speak this term."

"Otherwise, even if you could withstand the backlash, you would later be beset by Great Terror and sink into Inauspiciousness!"

The Judge warned with a grave expression.

As demons and Weird entities, having to speak of Inauspiciousness was quite laughable.

But this was the truth.

The demons and Weird entities nodded hurriedly.

They would have to be fools to say it out loud.

Li Heng raised an eyebrow, slightly surprised.

What the Judge said actually held some truth.

With his current strength, he could indeed withstand the backlash and speak those four words. But he also sensed from the nether that if he were to speak them, he would be beset by Great Terror.

This kind of Great Terror was something even he, in his current state, could not resist!

"Alright, let's talk about the real business now."

"Everyone, take out the offerings you have prepared. If we don't offer sacrifices to this Ghost Place, then don't even think about coming out once we go in," the Judge said.

The crowd of demons and Weirds stirred upon hearing this.

"Wait, we still have to go in?"

A Bull Demon said in astonishment.

"Otherwise? Do you think you'll get a great opportunity if you don't go in?"

The Judge said indifferently.

"However, rest assured, everyone. If you successfully offer your sacrifices and are accepted by this Ghost Place, you can venture a hundred miles deep into this Ghost Place without encountering much danger."

"As for going beyond a hundred miles, well, then you're dead for sure."

Although some demons and Weirds were still hesitating, a small portion of Weirds had already taken out their offerings and thrown them into the True Realm Rift to sacrifice them.

Afterward, they left the Bone Boat directly and charged into the True Realm Rift.

It seemed they wanted to be the first to drink the soup.

Seeing that those Weirds who charged into the Rift experienced no abnormalities, the dam broke; most of the Weirds could no longer wait and took out their offerings one after another, such as treasures of heaven and earth, exotic bloodline beasts, or various funerary objects.

After finishing their sacrifices, they also rushed into the True Realm Rift one after another.

In the end, only Li Heng, Xing Da, and the Judge remained.

"Your Excellency, are you not going in?"

The Judge asked in surprise.

"Then why aren't you going in?"

Li Heng smiled slightly.

"As one of the persons in charge of the Yellow Springs Road, I must stay here to provide support for everyone. After all, even outside this Ghost Place, there are many dangers, such as the many monsters influenced by its power."

The Judge said with righteous indignation.

"Is that your reason for making me go down as a sacrifice?"

Li Heng gave a playful smile.

The Judge's expression changed, and he spoke in a deep voice, puzzled.

"Why would you say that, Your Excellency?"

But the next moment, his body moved, turning into liquid, and he merged directly into the Bone Boat, while simultaneously shouting, "Do it!"

Suddenly.

More than a dozen demons and Weirds rushed out from the True Realm Rift.

These.

Were clearly the demons who had entered the True Realm Rift in the first batch just now!

Having merged with the Bone Boat and greatly increased his survival capabilities, the Judge was very puzzled: how did this Living Dead realize this?

He had dragged so many scapegoats and cannon fodder over.

It was just to make them serve as sacrifices.

He himself had long since tampered with the Bone Boat; once those demons and Weirds boarded the Bone Boat, they would be marked as sacrifices, and once they entered the True Realm Rift, they would only end up as offerings.

The True Realm Rift had a hidden rule: the more and stronger the sacrifices offered, the deeper the area one could explore, and while facing greater risks, one could also obtain greater opportunities.

To achieve this, he had also gone to great pains.

He had mobilized some manpower from the Yellow Springs Road to act as shills, entering the True Realm Rift in the first batch to dispel the wariness of the majority of demons and Weirds, and the plan had already succeeded more than halfway.

Except for Li Heng, all the other demons and Weirds had gone in.

"Kill!"

The Judge spoke, ordering these demons and Weirds to kill Li Heng.

No matter how this Living Dead knew his methods, he had to die; in any case, he had more people on his side and simply could not lose.
