Condemning the Heavens

Chapter 625 - Molten Stones

Xue Wei frowned slightly as he looked around. "It would make sense," he said.

The various zones they had entered so far were genuinely horrible, and each location was worse than the previous. They clearly changed significantly, but each one of them was full of death and disaster. Placing a teleportation array in such danger zones would limit the amount of people who would approach.

"We need to find a peaceful place; I have to contact Lan about this." Xue Wei knew that this was something way beyond his own capabilities. No matter how much he was struggling, he would not be able to defeat an enemy that could create these teleportation arrays, and it no longer only included their own world, but also others.

Lan was the Sovereign Deity that was responsible for this world, but even he was not aware of the existence of these arrays, and this worried him greatly.

After splitting up with Lan, Xue Wei had gotten his hands on a few communication devices that could be used in emergencies. He had, initially, not planned on using these things, but now he knew that it was not a question of determination and stubbornness.

Although Xue Wei was not willing to let others deal with his problems for him, this was no longer just his problem, and he was worried that things might be more complex than initially expected.

"We will watch out for dangers. Just take the time to send the message now." Luoluo was, just like Xue Wei and the others, worried that their current predicament was much more serious than initially feared. The scheme might not be aimed at Xue Wei, but at the entire world, and might even expand to the whole universe, as there were many worlds that could connect to here, using the various teleportation arrays.

Xue Wei quickly withdrew a jade tablet from within his storage treasure. The tablet was made from a special spiritual jade, and there were two matching tablets, so that what was written on one would appear on the other.

They were both very suitable for use, but they needed to restore energy each time a message had been transferred, so Xue Wei would not be receiving any answer this time and could only inform Lan about their current situation.

The tablet was, fortunately, large enough for Xue Wei to quickly explain the different areas they had been through so far, but also describe their theory for now. He felt that the teleportation arrays would bring more danger than anything else, so his focus was not on the various dangers they had faced, but about how the constant influx of corpses never stopped, and how each place seemed to lead to different worlds.

Xue Wei wrote quickly, and it did not take long for him to finish. "Let's leave this area as soon as possible."

They all wished to enter another zone. Although they had not encountered intense danger here, the constant temptation and illusion from the Intractable Mirage Peony was straining their minds to their limits. In many ways, they would rather fight a physical danger than an invisible enemy like this.

The group was haggard and they could feel the exhaustion as they moved forward. The nurturing grounds of the Intractable Mirage Peonies was very similar to the rest of the zone, but they dared not rest their vigilance or lower their guards as they slowly moved forward.

However, unlike previously, the group was no longer able to look forward to what the next zone would bring, as they knew that it would no longer be a pleasant location. Everything they could visit was going to be more dangerous than what they experienced before.

Upon witnessing the border in the distance, the group finally took a deep breath and sat down. One after another, they slept and relaxed their minds as they tried to regain their energy before they dared venture into the next dangerous zone.

"Are you ready?"

After everyone managed to get, at least a little, energy back, they took a deep breath before looking at the area in front of them. They no longer felt any hope of having an easier time, but instead tried to adapt to the landscape that was evident in front of them.

"It looks pretty warm" Bai Tianyi could not help but say dryly, as he felt a little resistant towards the new zone they were to enter.

The others could not help but feel slightly speechless. Warm might not be the right word, as the lava was running in deep gashes through the cracked ground, and even the geysers were not sprouting warm water, but seemed to spew out magma and black smoke.

The air that rose from the ground even caused heat mirages, and it was clear that not only was the lava deadly, the land itself was not going to make their advance much smoother.

"Well, let us give it a try." They already knew that they had to get through this before they could leave No Man's Land, but they could not help but feel listless as they looked at the zone in front of them. Even so, they did not hesitate as they stepped into the new zone, and what met them was a wall of heat.

The zones were split apart, and thus, the heat that was within this molten rock area was contained within its own borders. It also meant that the heat was simply like a punch in the face, and even they, who were stronger than most, could not help but feel as if the air they breathed burnt their entire body inside, and their lungs were set on fire.

Fortunately for Luoluo and Bai Tianyi, their entire bodies were made from energy, so they did not sense the same extreme discomfort, but the other three could not help but cough as soon as they stepped into the new area.
