Chapter 344: News of Old Friends
Information about the Death Realm? White Skeleton and Black Skeleton looked at each other.
“We don’t know much either. There’s actually a saying that the Death Realm is like the shadow of a person. Ordinary people won’t notice it at all, but it exists,” White Skeleton said.
“It’s similar to the shadow of a person? In other words, the Death Realm is the shadow of the source world?” Lin Jiufeng raised his brows.
“That should be the case. We heard that there’s a huge secret deep in the Death Realm. It’s said that we can see the original appearance of the Death Realm there,” White Skeleton said.
“The original appearance of the Death Realm?” Lin Jiufeng was very curious. Did the Death Realm have any other appearance?
“When we were born, the Death Realm was very chaotic. There was killing everywhere. As mentioned previously, a wisp of a remnant soul defeated a five-colored skeleton in that era,” Black Skeleton added.
“Yes, that era was very chaotic. The Death Realm was also larger, and there were also more five-colored skeletons than now. But after that chaos, there was a subtle change in the Death Realm,” White Skeleton nodded and said.
“Why was the Death Realm chaotic, and why has the chaos ended?” Lin Jiufeng asked.
“I really don’t know. Everything that happened in the Death Realm back then had nothing to do with us. We were too weak.” White Skeleton sighed.
Black Skeleton said, “It was also because of the great chaos that time that the two of us hid here and didn’t dare to go out. We made this place our territory and ruled here till now.”
“Why don’t you dare to go out?” Lin Jiufeng asked curiously.
“You didn’t experience that great chaos, so you don’t know. We witnessed a change in the Death Realm in our weakest period. Countless five-colored skeletons were shattered. Everything that happened back then was too cruel and brought us a deep shock,” White Skeleton also said.
“I see. Then, where can I find out everything that happened back then?” Lin Jiufeng asked.
“The depths of the Death Realm!” Both skeletons said at the same time, their voices solemn.
Lin Jiufeng continued to ask, “Then, if I want to leave the Death Realm and go to the real world, is there any possible way?”
Black Skeleton thought for a while and said, “It’s still the same sentence, go to the depths of the Death Realm!”
Lin Jiufeng frowned and looked at them. He took down this place in his heart.
What exactly was in the depths of this Death Realm that made them mention it several times?
“Yes, all the secrets of the Death Realm are in the depths of the Death Realm. We only dare to stay in the periphery now and don’t dare to go deep. There are too many unpredictable things inside,” White Skeleton also said.
“Is there really a path to the real mortal realm in the depths of the Death Realm?” Lin Jiufeng was tempted to go there now.
He had promised Bai Mao’er that he would revive.
Now that he had fallen into the Death Realm after death, he was unable to escape and was just a remnant soul now. Although he had recovered his strength, he was still just a remnant soul.
Still a dead man.
“Can the Death Realm make people revive?” Lin Jiufeng asked a question that made White Skeleton and Black Skeleton fall silent.
This question was really difficult for them to answer.
“Whether the Death Realm can revive people or not, no one can answer this question for the time being, because even the powerful five-colored skeletons can’t revive themselves.”
“But since ancient times, according to our understanding, there has been a supreme powerhouse in the Death Realm who has always been pursuing revival. He went deep into the Death Realm for an unknown distance. When he came out later, he brought with him a sentence: Living a second life is not an extravagant hope!”
“But no one knows the specifics of how to revive and live a second life, and that supreme powerhouse also didn’t tell anyone, so it’s still the same words.”
“If you want to understand the Death Realm, go deep into it.”
Black Skeleton explained tirelessly.
White Skeleton also nodded. It was fighting to the death with Black Skeleton previously, but at this moment, it agreed with Black Skeleton.
“How many secrets are hidden in the depths of the Death Realm?” Lin Jiufeng looked towards the depths of the Death Realm in surprise.
“Actually, more than a hundred years ago, there were also two skeletons that rose up and explored the secrets in the depths of the Death Realm,” Black Skeleton suddenly said.
White Skeleton nodded and said, “There were indeed two skeletons. The time between their appearance was just ten plus years, and they quickly rose up and walked into the depths of the Death Realm in succession.”
“Oh? There are others like me that are also interested in the depths of the Death Realm?” Lin Jiufeng’s interest was piqued.
“After the first skeleton appeared, it only took three years for it to defy the heavens and rise up. It fought until many of the surrounding skeletons trembled. They weren’t a match at all,” Black Skeleton said.
“Were you two beaten up too?” Lin Jiufeng asked with a smile.
“No. The two of us are very low-key. Moreover, we don’t get into conflicts with other skeletons, so that skeleton didn’t look for us. We heard from others about this skeleton beating up the other skeletons.” Black Skeleton shook its head.
The two of them only fought with each other. They rarely fought with outsiders. Even during the few times they fought with outsiders, the two of them would kill the enemy. They would eliminate the problem at its root and wouldn’t leave any trouble behind.
“That skeleton defeated many skeletons in the periphery in three years. Should I say that this skeleton is powerful and talented, or are you skeletons too useless?” Lin Jiufeng asked.
It should be known that Black Skeleton and White Skeleton had already cultivated for more than 10,000 years.
They were only at the purple soul flame realm now.
Just like Lin Jiufeng being at the Ancestral Immortal Realm.
But Lin Jiufeng slowly cultivated to this realm over just a hundred years.
Moreover, during Lin Jiufeng’s hundred-plus years, he experienced the exhaustion of spiritual energy at the start before it slowly recovered. Only later did the amount of spiritual energy explode.
In comparison, the gap was obvious.
Black Skeleton and White Skeleton fell silent at the same time. They had no excuse to refute Lin Jiufeng’s words.
“We are too cowardly.” Black Skeleton sighed.
White Skeleton didn’t argue. It said softly, “Perhaps if we leave the periphery of this area earlier and go deeper into the Death Realm, we will also become stronger.”
It was only at this moment that Lin Jiufeng realized that this was actually the periphery of the Death Realm.
Hence, there were many newly born little skeletons around.
Living here, indeed, no one came to disturb Black Skeleton and White Skeleton. Even if there were, they wouldn’t expect that the two skeletons with purple soul flames would willingly stay here.
“When we were born, we still thought of seeing the outside world, but the chaos that followed made us fearful from the bottom of our hearts. We didn’t dare to go out. We lived in this familiar land for more than 10,000 years and silently raised ourselves to the purple soul flame realm.” Black Skeleton sighed.
“Actually, we are also very envious of those two skeletons. When they just entered the Death Realm and obtained strength, they didn’t plan to stabilize themselves bit by bit, but directly explored the depths of the Death Realm,” White Skeleton said enviously.
“What are the names of these two skeletons? Why are you guys so envious?” Lin Jiufeng asked curiously.
“I remember one of the skeletons self-proclaimed to be Emperor Yuan. It said that it was an emperor and wanted to change the Death Realm,” Black Skeleton said.
“I also remember the other one. He self-proclaimed to be Emperor Ming. He also said that he was an emperor and went deep into the Death Realm,” White Skeleton also said.
After saying that, the two of them looked at Lin Jiufeng. They discovered that the current Lin Jiufeng’s eyes were emitting a terrifying light as he stared fixedly at the two of them.
“You guys…”
“Just now…”
“What did you say?”
Lin Jiufeng’s mouth was dry. Great waves rose in his heart. His hands were trembling, and his heart was beating violently.
Emperor Yuan!
Emperor Ming!
They had died very early, but Lin Jiufeng had always remembered them.
At this moment, the scenes from back then appeared one by one.
After more than a hundred years, he finally heard the news about Emperor Yuan and Emperor Ming again.
After they died, they also came to the Death Realm.
They were here.
They were waiting for him deep in the Death Realm.
