“There’s someone ahead!”

Ye Chen interrupted the two of them and headed toward the source of the scream.

​ 

Three hundred meters away, an old man in tattered clothes was currently lying on the ground, screaming endlessly. If one looked closely, they would discover that only bones were left on his legs, as if they had been completely eaten by something.

The flesh on his legs was disappearing at a speed visible to the naked eye, until only his face was left.

“Ah!”

Li Ying took a few steps back in fear.

The person looked at Ye Chen and the rest in utter despair. Strong desire to live shone in his eyes, “Save me… Save me…”

The moment he finished speaking, he had completely turned into a skeleton!

Luo Tianya shook his head, “That fellow’s cultivation is lacking, but he still insisted on barging in. I can only say that his death isn’t worthy of sympathy…”

Li Ying suddenly said, “Look, his soul!”

The eyes of everyone focused, and they saw a soul suddenly shoot out from the skeleton. It seemed to want to escape, but it was still enveloped by the surrounding black fog and completely torn apart.

The sound of sand hitting the ground echoed in everyone’s ears, and the black fog expanded again.

“As expected!”

Ye Chen squinted and said softly, “Patriarch, it seems like our guess was right. The black fog is made of soul fragments.”

“In other words, there used to be many ghosts here!”

The Patriarch of Hell nodded and said, “However, there must have been a huge battle later on that caused these ghosts to be shattered and eventually formed a strange black fog!”

Li Ying and Luo Tianya nodded.

“There’s another possibility!”

Ye Chen, on the other hand, shook his head and said, “When a battle breaks out between living people, such soul sand will be condensed after the soul breaks. Since it’s the soul fragments of countless people, it’s mixed with the seven emotions, six desires, and negative emotions…”

“That makes sense.”

The Patriarch nodded thoughtfully.

As the group ventured close to 3,000 meters into the black fog, they encountered many people with lower cultivations who died along the way. Other than their flesh being devoured, their souls were torn apart and turned into soul sand.

Before long, an enormous ancient city broke through the black fog and gradually appeared before everyone’s eyes.

The ancient city was just too grand. Its walls were a hundred meters tall, larger than any city in the outside world. It was also filled with a sense of gloom and time.

The sky above the city was covered in dark clouds. No one could see anything in the city, but Ye Chen could see the name on the city gate clearly.

“Gate of Hell!”

The three blood-red words gave off an eerie aura, like a silent warning to the living.

About ten people stopped not far away from him. They were the powerhouses who had entered earlier than Ye Chen.

“Gate of Hell!”

“It’s actually the Gate of Hell. Heavens, we’ve actually arrived at the Gate of Hell? Could the legend really exist?”

Some powerhouses shuddered.

“A bad omen, a bad omen!”

A Taoist master took out a tortoise shell on the spot to perform divinity for himself, but the tortoise shell instantly shattered. He could not help but panic.

“I quit, I quit!”

Without another word, he walked back the way he came, as if he wanted to return. However, he only took a few steps before he screamed.

Under everyone’s fearful gazes, a red bolt of lightning suddenly descended from the gloomy sky, directly shattering the person.

A rain of blood fell from the sky.

Dead silence, dead silence!

That was a quasi-saint! However, he was destroyed in the blink of an eye! Even until his death, he still did not understand why.

A few seconds later, the crowd erupted in cheers, “What was that red lightning?!”

“Looks like we’ll die if we go back the way we came. There’s no way out…” A powerhouse said with a trembling voice.

The Patriarch of Hell narrowed his eyes and said, “Fellow Ye, did you see what it was just now?”

“Too fast!”

Ye Chen frowned deeply and said slowly, “However, I can vaguely sense some soul fluctuations…”

At the next moment, his expression changed slightly.

The reason being he sensed the strange movements of the devil Weeping Ghost Beast!

He had kept the beast in his soul beast bag previously and had never let it out. Now, it was the first time the beast had sent out a signal that it wanted to get out.

“Could it be that the devil has discovered something?”

He frowned and said to Li Ying and the rest, “Be careful. You must follow me closely!”

“Pretentious, pretentious!”

Right at this moment, a loud shout exploded from the distant crowd.

Then, an old man holding a sword leaped up, “The Gate of Hell? What a joke. Do you think you can scare me with just three words?”

“If the legendary underworld really exists, I don’t mind wreaking havoc in the underworld today!”

As soon as he finished speaking, a ray of sword gleam from the old man slashed through the sky and actually flashed toward the ancient city.

Seeing that someone was following his footsteps, another figure shot out from the crowd, “I’ll risk it. Even if I retreat, I’ll still die. Instead of that, I might as well charge through!”

“Go!”

Ye Chen did not hesitate. He waved his sleeve and swept Li Ying and the rest away quickly.

There were many ancient buildings in the ancient city, and it was extremely quiet at this moment.

The spacious streets were no different from the surrounding buildings. It was made of unknown materials, and the color seemed to be formed from dried blood. It was red and black.

Apart from Ye Chen and the rest, no one dared to move. All of them were looking around vigilantly. Even though the ancient shop next to them was lit up, no one dared to enter.

“Ahhhhh!”

At this moment, an extremely shrill cry suddenly broke the silence in the dark street.

Everyone immediately looked over and saw a hole appear on the chest of a supreme overlord. A shadow passed through that hole.

Plop…

The man’s body turned into a pile of white bones that fell to the ground.

“Something filthy is attacking us!”

It was unknown who cried out in alarm, but many people gathered together, their backs against each other, vigilant of their surroundings.

Someone said with a trembling voice, “Did you see what that was? Could it be a ghost?”

Boom…

The old man with the sword suddenly slashed behind him and shouted, “Who are you, you little thief? How dare you ambush me from behind!”

However, there were two more screams.

Two more skeletons appeared on the ground.

“How dare you act mysteriously in front of the patriarch!”

Two lightning bolts flashed in the Patriarch of Hell’s eyes as he sneered, “I’d like to see what you are!”

At that moment, a shadow rushed over from behind Li Ying.

“Be careful!”

Ye Chen reminded him. Subsequently, he suddenly grabbed the shadow with his palm. In his hand was an extremely light black spirit.

“Hungry Ghost?!”

The Patriarch of Hell recognized it, “It’s a Hungry Ghost!”

The black spirit turned into a lady in a peculiar outfit and bared her teeth at Ye Chen.

Ye Chen said, “Moreover, it’s a beginner-stage Golden Core Hungry Ghost!”
