Chapter 2596 Revealing What is Hidden

chapter 2596 revealing what is hidden

“greetings, senior apprentice-brother long chen!”

long chen had just arrived when disciples of the martial heaven alliance ran over to greet him.

therefore, long chen nodded to them. “has there been any activity here?”

a disciple answered, “reporting to senior apprentice-brother long chen, the other world’s aura is constantly infecting the martial heaven continent. however, the size of this entrance has not grown. most likely, it has been suppressed by the laws of the martial heaven continent, but there is no way to say for certain, so we are currently paying close attention to it.”

the gate between resentful death city and the corrupt god cemetery had been inadvertently opened by mo nian. as a result, the aura of resentful death city was entering the martial heaven continent through the corrupt god cemetery.

however, it was unable to spread after reaching a limit of ten thousand miles from the exit, similar to the yin yang world. hence, that disciple’s assumptions were most likely correct. it must be suppressed by the laws of the martial heaven continent.

nevertheless, once the aura of resentful death city grew to a certain density, it would be able to spread further, and then the resentful spirits inside would be able to enter the martial heaven continent freely.

at this moment, hair-raising roars occasionally rang out from the other side of the portal. it was like devils howling.

“stand guard over this place. i’m going inside to take a look,” said long chen.

“senior apprentice-brother long chen! you can’t go inside!” the disciple cried out, but long chen had entered the portal. it was too late to stop him.

when he entered this time, he found that its aura was completely different from before. there was now a trace of life within the aura of death and decay.

as soon as he was inside, he saw countless corpses littering the ground. their bodies and clothes were rotting, and yet their bodies moved when he arrived. they were resentful spirits.

“the corrupt path’s people?” long chen was surprised. these resentful spirits were not the ones that mo nian had seen. these were the corrupt path’s experts based on their robes.

mo nian hadn’t seen a single resentful spirit of the corrupt path within resentful death city. however, all long chen saw were those belonging to the corrupt path.

after that, long chen saw burial mounds on the ground that had been recently excavated. these experts must have been buried there previously.

the closest one of them attacked long chen with a sword, but he was blown back by a palm from long chen.

“oh?”

long chen was surprised that the resentful spirit survived his attack. its body was extremely tough.

“there is nothing guaranteed in life. in any case, i trust my vision and intuition. ye ming always thinks of himself as clever. his schemes look superior, but they always lack some maturity. as someone who underwent nirvanic rebirth, he has his memories from his last life, and the arrogance from that life has continued in this era as well. that means his character is essentially fixed and will not change. he treats everyone around him like a chess piece, and he has no counselors. if anyone questioned his decisions, he would kill them. evilmoon, why don’t you tell me if you ever listened to the opinions of your subordinates?” said long chen.

evilmoon was silent. back then, he had made decisions by himself, and ye ming was the same.

long chen quickly flew by the countless resentful spirits. they had been buried in the corrupt god cemetery since the ancient era and then had been turned into resentful spirits by the aura of resentful death city.

nevertheless, they at least possessed a certain level of will as they listened to ye ming’s orders. their eyes had long since withered, leaving deep empty eye sockets that stared at long chen. if it was anyone else, they would probably be scared off.

however, long chen charged through them without even looking at them. just as mo nian had said, the coffins here had vanished.

when long chen reached the channel, he heard countless roars coming from the other side. they were like thunder in his ears.

“that’s definitely from an existence above netherpassage, and more than one at that. long chen, if you go in, you might not be leaving alive,” said evilmoon. ye ming might just cut off the path back, trapping them in resentful death city.

“it’s fine. i’ll run if i see something wrong.” long chen clenched his fists. in his hand was a bronze fragment.

this was a fragment of the eastern wasteland bell. although it was just a fragment, it had absorbed the source qi of the ye family’s counterfeit eastern wasteland bell.

with it, no matter what kind of domain ye ming tried to set up, long chen would be able to break it. this was his trump card for entering this place.

the aura of death grew stronger. but when long chen reached the end of the passageway, he suddenly laughed.

“ye ming, i just knew you were scheming to scare me off. so there’s still a sovereign seal here.”

from the channel, long chen saw a barrier separating resentful death city and the corrupt god cemetery. he was looking through the sovereign seal.

countless resentful spirits within resentful death city were roaring at the sovereign seal, but they didn’t dare to approach it.

when long chen got closer, he saw a thick layer of dust on the ground on the other side of the exit. it seemed like the remnants of resentful spirits that had tried to charge through.

after that, long chen looked up. the barrier had a giant sovereign character embedded in it, looking like it was made of fresh blood.

this was a seal made with the blood of a sovereign, something that possessed the power to transcend time and space. thanks to it, even though the sovereigns were already gone, their work continued to protect the continent.

when long chen got closer to the sovereign seal, it suddenly lit up and enveloped long chen in a beam of light.
