Chapter 139 – The Nineteenth Level Of Hell (1/2)
Chapter 139 – The Nineteenth Level Of Hell
About ten thousand meters under the ground of Dark Mountain Corpse City.
This place was practically a huge plaza where one could not see where it began or ended.
This square was filled with various types of bodies that were innumerable. If one was to sweep the glance around, this place resembled a dark colored sea where one could not see the border. The amount of bodies here were simply too much to be counted!
These bodies had no consciousness and no soul, so they were just moving around aimlessly. The Gu insect inside their brain was still in the process of growing, so these bodies looked just like zombies ambling around!
A dark yin air permeated the air, and the aura of death reached every nook and cranny.
There were constantly ghostly wails here because these walking dead were suffering from painful torment. This pain and suffering was worse than death!
There were rumors floating about that below this plaza was actually hell!
However, this plaza was even more brutal than hell. One could not live or die if they wanted to! This was basically a purgatory for the living, and people have given this place another name – the Nineteenth Level Of Hell!
This was the corpse sea.
This was Yin Shang’s munitions factory, a place that constantly supplied him with his undying guards!
Inside a house at a corner of the plaza.
“Old man, there’s a lot of commotion going on up there. Do you think that child has really come?”
“Impossible. Even if he did come, he’s basically courting his own death.”
“Sigh… I shouldn’t have told him those things; it would have been best for him if he didn’t know anything. Old man, that child is definitely not ordinary because his body exudes a perseverance not seen in regular people. He is also very decisive in his actions and the most important thing of all – his heart is very kind. I’m afraid… once he sees the earth’s core race being wiped out; he would rush towards the Dark Mountain Corpse City. If that really happened, then I’ve truly harmed him. Sigh… I really hope he doesn’t come back to see what happened to the earth’s core race, and not see the scenes of carnage, and never to step into the Dark Mountain Corpse City.”
“A strong perseverance, decisive, and kind at the same time. Perhaps… perhaps he is the person mentioned in the prophecy.”
“You damn old man, why did you suddenly become so superstitious? Prophecies are only there to comfort the living and to give them a bit of hope.”
“This prophecy is different because it might be real!”
The old granny’s expression looked stunned.
After a short while, she merely faintly smiled that show her satisfaction.
The only wish in her life was to see this old man one more time. After this, she could finally die in peace.
Now that she has seen him, she was just like a girl that had fallen in love the first time. She was extremely happy and cherished every second with the old man. She didn’t bother thinking of other thoughts. The earth’s core race was close to being wiped out, so what other matters was there to look forward to?
After a while…
The old granny asked: “Old man, are you really going to teach that bastard Yin Shang the way to dispel Gu poison?”
The old man gently tucked the old granny’s white hair behind her ear as he faintly smiled: “How would I have gotten to see you if I didn’t say such a thing? All these years, I have been helping him refining Gu insects and harmed a lot of our clansmen. I have sinned greatly. All these years, the only wish I had was to see you one more time. Now that I have seen you, I can now die in peace. As for the ability to dispel the Gu poison, he can forget about it for the rest of his life! Humph!”
“Yoh…”
“Are you two whispering sweet words to each other?
“Master, Mistress, the feelings between you two have still remained unchanged for several centuries, hahaha.”
Suddenly…
