Chapter 570: Entering The Well Of Hell
"What the hell is this place?"
The moment Ye Xiao jumped into the Well Of Hell, he immediately felt some kind of strange energy entering into his body. When he landed on the ground, he felt that he could not circulate the spirit energy nor could he feel his cultivation base. It was as if he has become a mortal, without the slightest bit of cultivation base.
"What happened just now? What kind of energy it was that entered my body?" Ye Xiao muttered in low voice. He could not understand what is going on.
At this time, Queen's voice sounded in his mind. She said: "This place is protected by the Laws of the world. It is as if this place is a world in itself. Anyone who came here has their cultivation base sealed. It was the doing of the Law here. No one can use their cultivation base at this place."
"What is this place?"
Ye Xiao asked when he heard Queen. Since Queen knows about the Law here, she might know what kind of world this Well Of Hell is?
Queen replied: "I don't know what kind of world this is, I can only sense ancient auras from many places. This place must be a leftover battlefield from the ancient era. I can also feel the aura of God Slaying Sword from the depth of this place. There are also many unknown dangers here. You have to be careful!"
Ye Xiao nodded his head, understanding everything.
"Aura of God Slaying Sword!" Ye Xiao muttered and said: "You told me previously that the God Slaying Sword was broken into three pieces. There might be one out of three pieces at this place!"
Queen's reply immediately came: "Yes, there is!"
"If that's the case, the treasure that the Leader of Sacred Lands was talking about must be this piece of God Slaying Sword. Its level has far surpassed the Divine Level after all. Even in its broken state, it must be far more powerful than other Low Levelled Divine Weapons!"
"I can not let the Sacred Lands get their hands on this piece of God Slaying Sword. I must take it away by myself!"
"You can not!" Queen's voice once again sounded.
"Why?" Asked Ye Xiao.
"Fate or Destiny!" Queen replied in a soft voice: "The holder of God Slaying Sword is also here. His fate has brought him here. Since he is the holder of God Slaying Sword, it is destined for him to obtain all three pieces of God Slaying Sword. No matter how one tries to change this fate of the holder of God Slaying Sword, it'll not change. Or should I say, it is impossible to change!"
"The holder of God Slaying Sword is here? Who is he?"
Ye Xiao was surprised when he heard this. He had no idea who the Holder of God Slaying Sword is but he does want to know. After all, according to what Queen has told him before, the holder of God Slaying Sword and he might clash in the future.
"You already know that person. Even if I'll not tell you, you'll definitely know about him very soon. You might come to know who that person is in these two months of time. But don't worry, you are not someone that the holder of God Slaying Sword could go against. Not only do you have the abilities of Ancestral Dragons, but you might also be chosen by the Infinity Edge Blade that is even stronger than the God Slaying Sword!"
Hearing Queen's reply, Ye Xiao took a deep breath and started observing his surroundings. The surrounding was not dark as he thought before jumping into the ravine. Instead, it was full of little lush green grasses. He could see a few big trees in the distance, some birds flying in the vast blue sky, and some tall mountains and sound-making rivers with flowing waves.
Ye Xiao noticed that he could not see anything here that could prove that this was a ravine. It was as if he was transported to another world that was more like a paradise than a hell.
It was no wonder that this place has its own laws.
Other than Ye Xiao, all the geniuses who entered the Well Of Hell were also stunned. This was the first time they arrived at this place and did not know why this paradise-like world was given the word "Hell" in its name.
Right now, they were more worried and has no mood to admire the beauty of this world. They could not use their cultivation base in this world and have turned into a mortal. If this continued and they encounter some sort of danger, how'll they be able to get out of that situation?
The first thing they have to do is to search for a way to regain their cultivation base.
"Leaders of the Sacred Lands must have known about it but even so, they didn't tell us that our cultivation base will be sealed here. Were they planning to kill us?"
"No! I think they must have known that no one would agree to enter this place after knowing we could not use our cultivation base here and still have to face all sorts of dangers. It must be because of this they choose not to tell us about it!"
"Those old bastards are really cunning. They should at least tell us about this. After all, I and many geniuses here are the disciples of Scared Lands."
"What were they planning? If our cultivation bases are sealed, how could we get hold of the treasure they want?"
"It is no wonder that the mortality rate inside the Well Of Hell is so high!"
"Before us, there were some people who were able to go out of this place. If they could do that, we could also return out of this place alive!"
Everyone started discussing. Although they were frightened, they knew in this situation, being scared would not help. They have to stay calm and composed and take make a decision in their favour. Even if they could not bring any treasure back, they have to return alive. All they have to do is to survive in this world for two months.
But... What danger could be in this paradise-like world to make people call it Well Of Hell?
But very soon, they understood why this world was called the Well Of Hell.
"What the hell is that?" Someone pointed in the distance and said in a trembling voice.
When other people looked in the direction pointed by that person, all they saw was dust and fog flying in the air and it was becoming bigger and bigger with every passing second. It was as if something was coming towards them.
A few moments later, the ground started trembling and the sound of thousands of footsteps could be heard.
"This is... Beast Horde. Beast Horde is coming, run otherwise all of us will die!"
Immediately, a huge commotion broke out among the crowd of geniuses and everyone started running.
Be it Ye Xiao, Lin Hao, or others, there was no exception. All of them were running. If they did not run, they will die for sure. If they want to save their lives, they have to run.
Although Ye Xiao could not use his spirit energy, he could still use the abilities of ancestral dragons.
"Spirit Devour Escape!"
Without caring about others, Ye Xiao immediately used the Spirit Devour Escape and vanished from where he was standing. Leaving behind a flash of light, Ye Xiao escaped in the opposite direction of Beast Horde at an extremely fast speed.
No one was able to notice Ye Xiao escaping. No one was in their right state, everyone was in a panicked state. All they were thinking about was running away from here and saving their lives.
Although Ye Xiao could not use his spirit energy, the Spirit Devour Escape devours the energy from the outside world to work. This way, he was indirectly able to use the spirit energy and escaped from this place. He was the first one to successfully escape.
Ye Xiao did not know about others nor did he care. All he did was run continuously and only stopped after one hour.
Stopping, he turned back and looked in the direction of Beast Horde. He was already very far away from that place so he could not see anything.
Only now did he take a deep breath of relief and start to look around. The place he was currently was different from the previous place.
Right now, Ye Xiao was standing in the middle of a desert. He had unknowingly arrived at a desert where the direction was not known. He could not tell what direction was east or what direction was west.
But it was not important. What was important was another danger that was standing in front of him, staring him with red eyes.
