Ranking Of Kings: My Land Is SSS Rank

758 Life-forbidden Area

“Country Lord, be careful!”

The Wushuang Ghost subconsciously took a step forward and stood in front of Li Xiang. The Flying Wheel was already in his hand, ready to attack anytime.

“As expected, this lake is the most crucial location. Although it may not be the Fengshui Array’s flaw, it may be the exit. It may also be the door leading to the real danger.”

Jiang Ni’s gaze became even more profound and strange.

Rattle!

In the lake, a whirlpool appeared out of thin air.

“Look, what’s that?” Qin Feng’s eyes were filled with shock.

“It’s a ship. There’s a ship in the whirlpool? “Zhou Kun pointed at the whirlpool and shouted in surprise.

“White bones, skeletons. I see that the ship is completely made of white bones and skeletons. There seems to be someone on that ship.” Ye Shan also said loudly, his face pale.

That ship wasn’t on the lake but slowly drilling out of the whirlpool from the bottom of the lake.

It was as if the whirlpool was leading to a mysterious place.

The ship was more like a boat than a ship. A figure wearing a black robe and a black bamboo hat stood on it. He held a pole in his hand and an oar beside him. He went against the current and followed the whirlpool as it spun round and round, heading towards the lake’s surface.

“It’s so cold!”

“I can also sense that it is an extremely terrifying Yin Qi. This Yin Qi is not normal Yin Qi. It feels like life is about to freeze. Could this be a ghost that has walked out of hell?” someone said.

“I feel like I’ve appeared in the Underworld. The chill is constantly drilling into my body.”

Everyone felt that after the appearance of that strange skeleton ship, the temperature in the surrounding air had clearly dropped. Moreover, it fell extremely fast, to the point that it made people feel cold all over.

“This chill is indeed Yin Qi.”

Li Xiang also felt that the Yin Qi was very dense and pure. It was not something that could appear in an ordinary place.

However, the Yin Qi did not affect him in the slightest. As soon as the Yin Qi approached him, it was naturally devoured by the Tower of Stars.

“This isn’t a living person!”

Jiang Ni immediately made a definite judgment when he saw the skeleton ship and the figure standing on the ship.

“Who is it? Rashly touching the water of the Netherworld and disturbing the Netherworld!”

With the appearance of the skeleton ship, the whirlpool on the lake naturally disappeared, and the pitch-black figure appeared in everyone’s eyes. He raised his head, and under the bamboo hat was a face with an ancient and cold expression. He looked only twenty or thirty years old, and his appearance was well-defined, easily leaving a deep impression.

“Who are you?”

Li Xiang frowned slightly as he looked at the mysterious man before him. He couldn’t feel any life from him, as if he was already dead. Moreover, he felt that that man’s body contained an extremely terrifying power. Once that power erupted, he might not be able to leave alive.

“Spirit raftman!”

The mysterious man looked up at Li Xiang, and a strange look appeared in his eyes. He slowly said, “You’re actually a heaven-blessed one!” After a moment of silence, he continued, “Since you’re a heaven-blessed one, I’ll give you a choice. Do you want to board the ship?”

His words had no emotion, and they gave off an extremely stiff feeling.

“So what if I get on the ship? So what if I don’t?” Li Xiang asked as he looked at the skeleton ship.

“If you don’t board the ship, you’ll stay here forever. If you board the ship, you might die!” The spirit raftman looked up at Li Xiang and said slowly.

“You mean there’s a chance of survival if we board the ship? “Li Xiang was keenly aware of the profound meaning behind it.

He wouldn’t be able to find a way out if he stayed here. Facing all kinds of strange things in the Devil Oasis, he might really stay here forever. They had just appeared in the oasis, and no one knew how many more dangerous things there were in the oasis if they continued to stay. Perhaps, even more terrifying things were hidden but had yet to appear.

If that were the case, staying behind would definitely mean death.

Although it was just a Soul Travel, and he could end it at any time to return to the Kingdom of Dawn, he would waste a chance and affect his plan to recruit talents.

Therefore, he would not use that method unless he had no choice.

However, if they left with the mysterious spirit raftman, it would also be full of unknowns. No one knew where he would take them. What if they were really brought to the Netherworld?

“It’s said the world is divided into Yin and Yang. Yin is the Netherworld, and Yang is the living world. The Netherworld contained dead creatures, but death does not represent the end. In the Netherworld, it is a new beginning, the regeneration of life. There are emissaries in the Netherworld who travel between the two worlds to receive the dead souls in the living world. That’s why they’re also known as spirit raftmen and should be referring to people like you.” Jiang Ni suddenly said.

“You do know a lot.”

The spirit raftman looked up at Jiang Ni and said coldly, “Practicing the Art of Fengshui, you’re a Fengshui Master. Be careful not to die prematurely!” This person’s eyes were very sharp.

It was as if he had seen through Jiang Ni’s identity with a single glance.

A Fengshui Master had unique Qi dynamics. In the eyes of many powerhouses, they were a guiding light in the dark. It was easy to determine their identities. Of course, with the abilities of a Fengshui Master, it was not difficult to hide his identity too. It would be difficult to detect unless the person’s realm was too much higher than his own.

But now, the spirit raftman could tell at a glance. From that, it could be seen that his strength was absolutely unfathomable.

“This is a forbidden area. I can’t stay here for too long. It’s up to you to decide whether you want to board the ship.”

The spirit raftman said indifferently as he looked up at the void and the oasis.

His expression seemed to have a bit of fear towards the oasis.

Of course, one would not be able to notice it if one did not observe carefully. No expression could be seen on his face.

“Since there’s a spirit raftman, it’s rare to have the opportunity to travel on the same ship as him. I’ll board this ship!” Li Xiang took a deep breath and said decisively.

“I’ll go wherever the Country Lord goes!” The Wushuang Ghost said without hesitation.

“Before we board the ship, I want to ask, where did the people who entered this oasis go? Are there any survivors?” Li Xiang suddenly asked.

“No, this place is…the life-forbidden area!” The spirit raftman said with a faint smile.

The life-forbidden area itself was enough to show the terrifying the oasis was. That was the end of all life, the world of death. Entering that place was equivalent to welcoming death.

“Let’s board the ship.” Li Xiang stepped forward, and his figure appeared on the skeleton ship.

The skeleton ship was more like a boat than a ship. It could even be said that it was basically a raft, a skeleton raft made of all kinds of bones. Floating on the surface of the water, it looked extremely horrifying. A human skull could be seen on it, and it was empty and hideous. Anyone who was a little timid would feel scared steeping on it.
