Myth Beyond Heaven

Chapter 1865 Departing

1865 Departing

During the meal, Yun Lintian occasionally asked Zhao Ming about the overall situation of the Netherworld. Through the conversation, he learned a lot of things. For example, the environment here might resemble the human world, but it was several times more cruel. Good ghosts like Su Lei and Xu Mei were extremely rare to find.

Yun Lintian also learned that there were numerous mysterious locations around the Netherworld. These places were naturally occupied by prominent sects and clans. Ordinary ghosts had no chance to go there.

After learning this, Yun Lintian thought about the ancient wars on Earth. Once a dynasty fell, the country would divide into factions, fighting for hegemony until it unified again. The Netherworld was similar to that. With the absence of the God of Death and Yama King, numerous factions began to emerge one after another.

“It’s ridiculous, isn’t it?” Zhao Ming was slightly intoxicated. “All of us here have already experienced death once, and now we must struggle again. What’s the purpose of living?”

Zhao Ming was originally a top expert in his world. He died during the siege by his opponents. When he first arrived in the Netherworld, he thought that he would go through hell to atone for his sins before reincarnating. Who would have thought he would have to struggle to survive again?

There were many times when Zhao Ming wanted to simply disappear, but his regrets held him back. He wanted to return to the human world and make amends for everything.

Yun Lintian could empathize with Zhao Ming’s feelings. Back on Earth, many people died from depression. These people didn’t want to continue living and chose to end their lives. Unexpectedly, they found themselves living once again in the Netherworld. What kind of ridiculous joke was this?

“Brother Lin. I don’t know why you come here, and I won’t ask about it.” Zhao Ming took a large sip of wine and spoke. “However, if you have the opportunity, you should leave as quickly as possible. Trust me. This Netherworld is worse than the eighteen hells.”

“Come. Drink.” Yun Lintian raised his glass in a toast and drank it all in one go.

“Hah! This is the best meal I have ever had.” Zhao Ming let out a satisfied burp.

Yun Lintian put the cup down and asked. “By the way, have you seen anything unusual lately? For example, an emergence of powerful dead souls.”

Zhao Ming frowned slightly. “Come to think of it. I saw something strange last month. A group of newcomers appeared a hundred kilometers away from here. Most of them were the souls of beasts. They were immediately seized by formidable ghosts.”

He looked at Yun Lintian and asked. “Do you know something?”

Yun Lintian shook his head. “Before I died, a strange phenomenon occurred. Countless powerful beasts and practitioners constantly died without reason. I just thought that they should have appeared here as well.”

“Oh.” Zhao Ming nodded and didn’t take it to heart.

“Do you know who they are?” Yun Lintian asked.

Zhao Ming furrowed his brow. “I’m not sure. I have never seen them before. They could be the Southern Emperor’s subordinates. The only thing I know is that they are extremely powerful.”

“Also, they clearly noticed me, but they ignored me. This part is very strange to me.”

Zhao Ming was certain he wouldn’t survive after witnessing the process. Surprisingly, those people didn’t care about him at all. .𝒎

Yun Lintian fell into deep thought. Until now, he still had no idea what had happened to the Netherworld and where those people had gone.

“Have there been any major changes in the Netherworld recently?” Yun Lintian asked again. .𝒎

Zhao Ming thought for a moment and said. “There is one thing. The aura has become at least twice as rich.”

“Oh?” Yun Lintian became interested.

“Normally, the aura in the Netherworld fluctuates periodically. The cycle has persisted for thousands of years. However, the recent increase in the aura shows no signs of stopping. You will feel it in a few days here.” Zhao Ming explained.

He sighed and said. “What a pity. If not for the previous incident, I would be happily training inside the Qing Clan by now.”

Zhao Ming’s original goal was to stay alive for as long as possible and wait for the return of the road to reincarnation. Now, he felt hopeless, and the thought of disappearing kept recurring.

Yun Lintian thought for a moment and asked. “How precious are the spiritual stones here?”

“Very precious. People would kill each other for a single mid-

grade spiritual stone.” Zhao Ming said with a serious expression. “As you can see, ordinary ghosts can’t even find enough to eat. You can imagine how scarce the resource is.”

He took a deep look at Yun Lintian and said. “That’s why I advised you to conceal your wealth.”

“I see.” Yun Lintian smiled and took out two bags. One of the bags contained seeds, while the other was filled with high-

quality spiritual stones.

“Thank you for providing me with valuable information. Please take this, Brother Zhao.” Yun Lintian placed the bags in front of Zhao Ming.

Zhao Ming’s eyes widened in shock as he saw the contents of the bags. “You…”

“I hope you can help Brother Su and Sister Xu a bit.” Yun Lintian said calmly.

Zhao Ming took another sip of wine to calm down. A moment later, he said with a wry smile. “You are killing me.”

Yun Lintian laughed but said nothing.

Zhao Ming accepted the bags and said. “I will do my best to help them. I don’t think those ghost soldiers will dare to attack the village after their attitude today. Maybe we can stay here.”

Yun Lintian nodded in agreement. Unless the so-called Flower Ghost Queen had died, there shouldn’t be a problem for this town.

“Are you leaving now?” Zhao Ming asked.

“Yes.” Yun Lintian said as he picked up Gui Xuan, who was sleeping soundly after a full meal.

“Good luck.” Zhao Ming knew it was likely the last time they would see each other.

“You too.” Yun Lintian smiled and walked out.

Zhao Ming looked at the two bags and the remaining food with a pensive expression. These supplies undoubtedly gave him a glimmer of hope.

After departing from Zhao Ming’s house, Yun Lintian secretly left some spiritual stones and food for Su Lei and Xu Mei before leaving the town.

His goal was naturally the southern capital city…
