As the Universe Turns - Chapter 441
Chapter 441 Fourth Person
“Huh?”
The Heretic God of Underworld Fire’s gaze turned cold as he looked at him. At this moment, the atmosphere in the hall became abnormally solidified. Almost everyone could feel a chill and killing intent.
“You’re just a small Dao Harmonization Realm cultivator, yet you dare to stand in front of me? Are you tired of living?”
The Evil God’s eyes widened, and his aura became exceptionally terrifying. A strong wind blew up in the hall, as if it was going to tear apart life.
‘”Calm down, Heretical God. Little friend Daoist Gui is not afraid of Wu Chen. If we want to go out, we must have him. As for this girl … After the Heretical God goes out, won’t there be as many girls as you want?” Gas of Gods and Demons hurriedly walked up.
“Humph!”
The Underworld Fire Evil God snorted coldly and walked back, “I’m not interested in her anymore. As for the forbidden area … You guys go find Han Tiangu. I won’t go and die again.”
Hearing him say this, Daoist Gui couldn’t help but frown. Before he could say anything else, the Underworld Fire Evil God raised his hand and said, “There’s no need to say anything else. When I came out alive back then, I swore that I would never go to that place again …”
…
“What should we do? Only Han Tiangu is left now …”
The few of them returned to the outside. Daoist Gui’s eyebrows furrowed deeper and deeper. Finally, he placed his whisk on his shoulder and drew a strange wind, “Go to Mount Han!”
Five days later, they arrived at the Frost Mountain where Han Tiangu was. The temperature in the vicinity plummeted by a lot. There was snow floating on the mountain, and some pavilions could be vaguely seen.
The group followed a few disciples to a cliff pavilion. They saw a figure standing in the pavilion. That person had white hair and shoulders. He turned around, but he was a handsome man with a red mark between his eyebrows. He looked like a hidden Sword Immortal.
The man was rather gentle and elegant. He cupped his hands to Daoist Gui and the others outside the pavilion. “Seniors, I don’t know why you’re here today.”
This person was precisely Han Tiangu. Although he called Daoist Gui and the others seniors, his strength wasn’t inferior to them. Especially his swordsmanship, it was even more extraordinary.
“It’s like this. We came here today for the forbidden area.” Daoist Gui stepped forward and said straightforwardly.
Hearing the word forbidden zone, Han Tiangu’s expression immediately changed. Three of them were confused, three were in awe, and three were indescribably sad. They were different from the vicissitudes of Wuchang Daojun and the decadence of the Underworld Fire Evil God.
Seeing the complicated expression in his eyes, Daoist Gui knew that this matter could be discussed, and immediately explained his intention of coming.
After Han Tiangu heard this, he took a deep breath and slowly walked to the edge of the cliff. He looked at the dancing snow and slowly said, “Master entered the forbidden zone alone back then and will never return it. I thought that I would be able to find her when I went in more than 300 years ago. Unfortunately …”
At this point, He closed his eyes. It was as if we had fallen into the memories of entering the forbidden zone more than 300 years ago. It took us a long time to say, “Not long after we entered, we encountered danger. After struggling for a while, all that was left was despair and panic … In the end, three of our seniors also died. Only the three of us managed to escape through the last crack that Senior Ge opened before we died.”
After saying that, Han Tiangu opened his eyes and turned to look at the crowd. “From the beginning, we shouldn’t have tried to enter that place …”
Although they saw him speak so casually at this moment, everyone could imagine how terrifying the situation was and how desperate they were.
After a moment of silence, Daoist Gui asked, “What exactly happened to you?”
Actually, the few of them were very curious about what they had encountered in the forbidden zone. After the three of them returned alive, they did not reveal a single word to the public. Thus, no one knew what the ten of them had experienced in the forbidden zone.
“You don’t want to know …”
Han Tiangu took a deep breath and slowly turned around. He looked at the falling snowflakes outside the pavilion. At this moment, it was as if he was muttering to himself, “Of the ten people, only three survived …”
“No, four people survived.”
Xiao Chen suddenly said. Hearing what he said, Ji Wuyan and the others looked at him in surprise. Han Tiangu also slowly turned around and looked at him, “Fellow Daoist, why did you say that?”
Xiao Chen said, “Four people survived. Not only did the fourth person survive, he also successfully left the Demon God Tomb.”
“What are you talking about?”
Ji Wuyan frowned. Hearing what he said, the expressions on the faces of the others became a little strange. Such a life-threatening matter could not be said to be laughable.
Xiao Chen looked straight at Han Tiangu and slowly said, “That person named himself the Evil Fiend King, hiding in the ancient plank path between the Earth Realm and the Heaven Realm.”
“Evil Fiend King, could it be …”
Han Tiangu’s expression changed slightly. For all these years, his face was still as still as water. Only at this moment did waves finally rise. His eyes widened and he kept muttering to himself, “Could it be You Xie Sha … It’s him … He’s not dead? He actually went out …”
At this moment, everyone was silent. Luo Die also stayed where she was. It turned out that the Evil Fiend King was one of the ten people back then …
At this moment, she recalled her first meeting with the Evil Fiend King. Still feeling a little shocked, that person’s long blood-colored hair covered half of his cheeks. On his chest, there was a terrifying bloody hole, as if it had been punched out by someone, and it was as if someone had taken his heart away from inside. The half of his face covered by his hair was already covered in demonic patterns, and it had gradually become demonic.
“No … impossible.”
Han Tiangu slowly regained his senses, and his gaze gradually became solidified. He looked at Xiao Chen and said with certainty, “If you had seen him, you wouldn’t be able to live.”
“His cultivation has fallen back a lot.” Xiao Chen said truthfully.
Hearing this, Han Tiangu gradually began to believe his words and asked, “Then what did he look like when you saw him?”
“There is a bloody hole in his chest. He has lost his heart and his body is wrapped in a devil aura. Then, he goes crazy and keeps saying, ‘God, devil, you can’t kill me’. In the end, he seems to be controlled by something and finally falls into confusion.”
Xiao Chen gave a brief account of what had happened that day in the Ancient Planet Road.
“Sure enough … it’s really him.”
This time, Han Tiangu seemed to have completely accepted the truth. In fact, he had already subconsciously believed in Xiao Chen from the very beginning, because he knew that the only thing he didn’t dare believe was that You Xie Sha had actually escaped, but … could he really escape?
Things seemed to gradually become somewhat complicated and confusing. At this moment, everyone was silent and their expressions became more and more solemn.
Daoist Gui took a step forward and looked at Han Tiangu motionlessly. He asked again, “What exactly did you meet inside?”
Han Tiangu took a deep breath and did not say anything. In the next moment, he suddenly tore open the front of his chest. Seeing the terrifying wound on his chest, Luo Die was immediately frightened to the point that she cried out in alarm and unsteadily retreated.
