Chapter 380: 356: Mist Covers the Cemetery
Translator: 549690339
Li Fan was recalling the various Mystical Realm anecdotes that Huang Fuqi had told him before.
“Some are simply vast and boundless spaces, devoid of any other existence.”
“While others are like the Roaring Abyss, concealing numerous bizarre dangers.”
“But everything is hidden in the endless White Mist. Any Cultivator who inadvertently enters it is like a blind man with open eyes, and it’s utterly hard to observe the overall picture.”
“The supplies I brought can last about fifteen more days. Whether I can traverse this Mystical Realm depends on my luck in this life.”
Having composed himself, Li Fan did not continue moving in the direction of the Eternal Immortal Fortress he had sensed earlier.
Instead, he marked that direction as “ahead” and himself started flying in the opposite “below” direction.
Usually, there is the existence of land in the [Foggy Barrier].
But it’s just a desolate and flat land with no traces of other life forms or buildings.
Even normal undulations are rarely seen.
It is said that walking on this land suppresses the instinctive yearning for life in your heart, leading to various suicidal impulses.
As for the Mystical Realm, it is an independent, entirely new space.
Whether there is a “bottom” depends on the specific situation of the Mystical Realm.
The Roaring Abyss is bottomless.
As for this Mystical Realm, Li Fan would have to explore it fully before he knew.
As for why he was flying “down” and not “up”, flying directly out of the range of the Mystical Realm…
That’s because Huang Fusong had mentioned to Li Fan before that entering a Mystical Realm is equivalent to entering a Cave Heaven World without boundaries.
It’s basically impossible to fly out of there if you’re trapped in a Mystical Realm.
You have to find the connection between the Mystical Realm and normal space, the so-called “exit”, to be able to leave.
Take the Roaring Abyss as an example.
If the Qingxuan Army accidentally falls into the Roaring Abyss guarded by the Broken Palm of the Blue Stone, as long as they enter the territory of the Abyss, even if they seem to be on the edge of the abyss, separated from the Eternal Immortal Fortress by a thin line, they would fail to return even if they flew to their death due to the different spaces involved.
Since the establishment of the Duan Zhang Immortal City, no Cultivator who has accidentally fallen into the Roaring Abyss has been able to return alive.
The exit of the Mystical Realm connects two different spaces.
So generally, it’s different from the landscape of the Mystical Realm itself. As long as you’re close enough, you can sense it, even if the White Mist is covering it.Fôll0w current novÊls on n/o/(v)/3l/b((in).(co/m)
This is also where Li Fan’s hope of escaping lies.
Fully operating the Violet Sky Escape Technique, Li Fan kept flying downward for about half a day.
Mid-flight, Li Fan’s expression suddenly changed.
He sensed something blocking his way not far ahead, within his reach.
However, in the Element Devouring White Fog, the range of the Spirit Consciousness’ perception was greatly reduced.
By the time he reacted, it was too late to avoid and he was about to crash head-on.
Two black lights shot out of Li Fan’s eyes.
They were several times faster than the purple light his body had turned into, annihilating the shadow hidden in the White Mist ahead.
Under the Great Five Elements Annihilation Sword, all obstacles turned into nothingness.
Thus, Li Fan avoided being dazed by the impact.
It was only then that Li Fan managed to slow down, go on alert, and slowly approach.
After seeing what was blocking him, Li Fan couldn’t help but breathe a sigh of relief.
It was not some strange creature, but a section of a collapsed, slanting building.
A hole had been pierced in the middle of the building by the Serenity Blade, but one could faintly make out the original appearance.
It was a multi-story building carved out of a huge stone, with the carvings and portals still clearly visible.
Li Fan didn’t rush into the toppled building, but continued flying downwards.
He soon landed on the ground.
With a squeak, it seemed that he stepped on something.
His Spirit Consciousness swept over it, causing Li Fan’s heart to tighten in an instant.
Because that was unmistakably a living person!
He had a livid expression, a horrifying countenance, and was staring dead at Li Fan!
“How could there be a living person in the Mystical Realm?” With this thought flashing in his mind, Li Fan’s body had already instinctively reacted.
He quickly retreated, and the Five Elements Annihilation Sword was drawn once again.
However, just as he was on high alert, something happened that left Li Fan utterly flabbergasted.
The “living person”, who had just come into contact with him, made no movement under Li Fan’s gaze.
His body merely turned into particles of grey dust in the blink of an eye, scattering all over the ground.
In just a moment, the lively man had turned into flying ashes.
“Huh? Not a living person, already dead?”
Li Fan frowned slightly.
Li Fan, who had a wealth of grave robbing experience, was not unfamiliar with this sight.
Those antiques sealed for a thousand years were vibrant one moment.
But after contact with the outside world, they instantly lost their original appearance and became decayed.
But the situation in this Mystical Realm was far worse.
It turned directly into dust and completely disappeared.
“What on earth…”
Without letting his guard down, Li Fan carefully searched around himself.
The horrific scene he saw caused even the battle-hardened Li Fan to feel his scalp tingle.
Within a hundred feet radius, there were collapsed and damaged architectural ruins everywhere.
And in every nook and cranny of the ruins lay many corpses haphazardly.
They still preserved their attire and expression from when they were alive.
As if they had witnessed something extremely hateful and terrifying, their faces were filled with despair and resentment.
Time had frozen at the moment of their death.
As if a disaster had suddenly struck, everyone inside the ruins lost their lives simultaneously.
No wounds, no bloodstains.
But they were all dead.
Just like the corpse that Li Fan accidentally stepped on earlier, as soon as they made contact with the outsider Li Fan, they turned into flying ashes in an instant and completely disappeared.
What frightened Li Fan was that the identities of these people were clearly not Mortals.
The Storage Rings they wore and the various Magic Treasures in their hands just taken out but not yet used.
All conveyed their Cultivator identity.
But in front of that unknown, they could only wait for death like Mortals, powerless.
Li Fan came to a corpse and tried to take the Storage Ring from its hand.
He wanted to see if he could find any clues about the mysteriously deceased Cultivators from it.
Unfortunately, just like those corpses.
As soon as Li Fan touched them a little, they immediately turned into smoky ashes.
He tried several times and all had the same result.
Li Fan gave up.
He suppressed the chills in his heart and continued to explore outward.
The scene remained the same.
The vast ruins were, in fact, a giant graveyard.
Burying countless bodies that had died who knows how long ago.
So much so that later on, Li Fan had become somewhat numb to it.
He increased his flight speed and hurried out of the range of these ruins.
“This place seems to have been some gathering point. The clothes on these Cultivators are somewhat similar and somewhat different.”
“Different sects gathered here for some reason.”
