Repugnant Gateway

Chapter 1266 – Ghost Yamen

The coachman was dead, the carriage was gone, and the carts looked like they were dying. The most important thing was that the Goddess and her maid Huan Wan had both disappeared.

“I won’t... Nothing will happen, right? ”

Du Shoushou was shocked when he saw this scene, “What the f * ck is this?!”

An Zheng looked around: “He probably hasn’t gone far yet, if we search carefully, there’s no way he won’t have any clues at all.”

“Separate and search. If you encounter any danger, contact me.”

Monkey pulled Du Shoushou along. “Let’s go in a party.”

The two men rushed to the left side of the road, in the same direction they had come from. An Zheng glanced at Chen Shaobai and the two of them chased in the direction of the Seventh City. The environment here was not suitable for their bodies. Other than An Zheng and Monkey, Du Shoushou had completely suppressed their powers. Therefore, the team had to be led by An Zheng and Monkey.

An Zheng and Chen Shaobai followed along the main road, hoping to find some traces left behind by the Goddess and Huan Wan. However, even after chasing for a long distance, they still couldn’t find anything, so the two of them decided to return after some discussion.

Not long after they returned to the abandoned carriage, Monkey brought Du Shoushou back.

Monkey shook his head. “Norace. Not a trace. Not a trace.”

His brow was deeply furrowed, and he clearly also felt this was unfathomable. Logically speaking, that goddess should be very powerful. Even if she encountered some danger, she shouldn’t have been able to resist at all. If she was a little smarter, she would leave An Zheng and the others some marks, but the four of them would not be able to find anything even if they searched in different directions.

“Strange.”

Although Monkey didn’t like the Goddess, and even less the girl called Huan Wan, he couldn’t just sit idly by and watch.

“What should we do?”

At this time, everyone’s attention was naturally focused on An Zheng. It was unknown when An Zheng had become everyone’s pillar of support.

“Wait.”

An Zheng’s answer was simple and clear, with only one word.

“Wait?”

Chen Shaobai said in confusion: “The situation right now is so urgent, if we late to find them, there might be an accident. Although they are not our own people, they have come together and there is no conflict between them. We cannot ignore that. ”

“The fact that they don’t have any aura means that they might not be in any danger.”

An Zheng said: “Don’t forget, they have Sky Lock.”

Chen Shaobai suddenly realized something. This Sky Lock tool was one of the most perfect Purple-Rank defense tools, and was even as famous as An Zheng’s Reverse Scale Armor. The Goddess’s cultivation was not weak, at least stronger than An Zheng, or even stronger than a monkey. Furthermore, Sky Lock could perfectly hiderson’s aura, which was also the reason why no one’s aura would be left behind after they left.

“Maybe they took the opportunity to dump us?”

Du Shoushou said: “After all, they are going to look for the Soul Burying Orb, and our goal is to save the monk.”

“The purpose is the same.”

An Zheng walked over to take a look at the horse. The horse looked like it had a big hole on it and one of its legs was broken. However, things like paper horses were lifeless. They were completely the lowest level of magical equipment in the Infernal Realm. What they needed wasn’t the power of any elements, but to rely on something very mystical to maintain their activity … This kind of thing that was extremely profound, An Zheng was also unable to explain.

An Zheng supported the horse carriage up, it was made of paper too. He saw that it could still be repaired, so he beckoned for everyone to come and help.

Before they could even repair the carriage, a group of something that was almost transparent suddenly approached them from the distance with a speed so fast that even An Zheng was surprised. When that thing was not moving, it was impossible to discover it. When it was moving, it would explode with an indescribable speed. Once it was moving, it would be quite close.

And when this almost undetectable transparent object got closer, An Zheng could clearly feel a strong suction force pulling him towards it. If that thing did not have any hostility or killing intent, An Zheng would have already taken action. When that ball of light stopped, the transparent light gradually disappeared, and the Goddess and Huan Wan walked out from the light.

“Where did you guys go?!”

Du Shoushou ran over and asked.

And all of An Zheng’s attention was on the Sky Lock in Huan Wan’s hands. That transparent ball of light was emitted by the Sky Lock, and it was also one of its abilities. If he stayed still somewhere, even the peak level cultivators of Celestial Sovereign would not be able to discover him. Only those of the Immortal Emperor Realm would be able to.

Even if the goddess and Huan Wan were to stand by An Zheng’s side, as long as they remained motionless, it would be extremely difficult for An Zheng to detect them. The reason why An Zheng could feel the ball of light moving was because of his perception, which was sharp enough to sense the stars in the sky. He didn’t even see the monkey and thought it was two people who had just appeared out of nowhere.

“We went after that thing.”

Huan Wan said a little proudly: “I found their nest.”

“They?”

An Zheng frowned slightly.

“Yes, they are.”

Huan Wan said, “While we were waiting for you in the carriage, we suddenly heard a paper horse cry out loud, and then I immediately activated the Sky Lock to hide its aura. Following which, we heard the miserable cries of the coachman and the wails of the horse. We didn’t move in the carriage but something broke through the carriage and charged in … I swear, I’ve never seen anything so ugly or so terrifying in my life. ”

“What does it look like?”

“A mass of black gas. There is a face in it. Only that face is real, and it is so ugly that no one can describe it. It was a dark green face, with green eyes and no nose, and fangs in its mouth. Except for the face, the rest was black. Because of the defense of the Sky Lock, it did not notice us, but it must have sensed that there are people in the carriage earlier, so it stayed in the carriage for a long time and continued to randomly attack.

Although Huan Wan still looked a little fearful, she was still a little excited when she spoke.

“His Highness said that we will follow him, so the two of us will use the Sky Lock as cover and follow him there.”

Huan Wan pointed to the southwest direction. “They dug a hole there.”

As she spoke, she brought An Zheng and the others to that place. When they arrived at the Earth Mountain, An Zheng discovered that there was something strange going on witree. Before this, he was mainly searching for the aura of the death aura and the goddess, so he didn’t pay much attention to these books. When Huan Wan brought it over, he realized that this tree was possibly fake.

Huan Wan said: “This ieleportation gate. After entering, we arrived at another place. Perhaps … That’s where the real hell is. ”

When she said this, her expression changed visibly.

“You’d better be prepared, because the death aura is too strong, and it might be eroded just like your friends.”

She then took the lead to walk out. She touched the tree with her hand, and it suddenly fluctuated as if it had been painted on paper. Then he saw the goddess slowly walk into the painting and disappear. Huan Wan waved and followed the Goddess in.

An Zheng and the others looked at each other, warned them to be careful and then entered the portal. The surroundings felt pitch-black, with the sound of wailing ghosts and howling wolves. However, he couldn’t feel anything on his body. It was as if everything in his mind was just an illusion.

After a few seconds, the surroundings started to light up, but it was only the contrast. The environment here was similar to the mortal world’s evening, except that the sun had just set and night had yet to completely descend. His vision was not good, and he could only see things within a range of a few dozen meters. After entering, An Zheng felt a distinct aura of death. However, this aura of death was different from the one he felt when he first entered’s hell.

It was a small town, about the size of a few hundred households. The place where they appeared was the main street of a small town. It seemed quite spacious. The shops on both sides of the main street were shabby, with broken windows and broken doors. The wind was blowing from the ground, but there was not a speck of dust.

Everyone was under the protection of the Sky Lock’s light aura, so there was no need to worry too much about the death aura.

“I’m finally a little familiar.”

The Monkey King looked around and said, “I know what kind of place this is.”

He explained: “This should be one of the original eighteen levels of hell, because after Purple Ivy came here, this place was abandoned. And because it was abandoned, it became the gathering place of some evil spirits. They hide out of the control of Yama and the Bodhisattva, and go out through the portal to do evil things. It’s just that I can’t tell which level of hell this is at. ”

“There they are.”

Huan Wan pointed to the largest building in the distance: “It’s all inside.”

Because they had the protection of Sky Lock, the group didn’t deliberately hide their tracks, and just swaggered towards the building.

“Ghost Yamen.”

Monkey walked to the door and looked up. His expression became solemn.

“If these things dare to gather in the Ghost Yamen, they must be extremely fierce. Everyone be careful.”

“What kind of place is the Ghost Yamen?”

“Because too many people die every day. In truth, Samsara is very crowded. There were only six paths. Every day, he would have to review them, queue up, and arrange them according to the fixed number in the Book of Life and Death. Therefore, there were a large number of undead waiting for reincarnation, and the Ghost Yamen was the place to manage these undead. The Ghost Yamen, also known as the Messenger’s yamen. Back then, the Ox-head and Horse-Face Monsters were the heads of the Ghost Yamen. ”

“If I had known earlier, I would have brought the two of them here.”

“Did you notice that even their cultivations were so weak that they couldn’t even withstand a single blow?”

“It seems that after the large scale abolition of the Ghost Yamen, the control over the dead spirits has become very weak. Some of the undeads had taken advantage of the fact that the eighteenth level of hell had changed to the first level to hide here. They devour each other, and the victors get stronger and stronger. ”

Monkey took a deep breath and said, “I’ll go in first. You guys follow behind me.”

He walked forward and An Zheng was the second one. They directly entered through the main entrance of the Ghost Yamen, and had long since left for who knows where. The courtyard was extremely dilapidated, with broken bricks and pieces of wood everywhere. There was clearly no wind here, but after entering, he felt the chilly wind blowing on his face.

At that moment, a sound came from a room inside the room. Monkey made a careful gesture with his hand and leaned towards the source of the sound.

Everyone couldn’t go too far, otherwise the Sky Lock wouldn’t be able to protect them at the same time, so they all followed. Outside the window, An Zheng and Monkey stood up and looked in, and then they saw an extremely terrifying scene …
