Condemning the Heavens

Chapter 500



As to what type of energy drove it, they did not know, but Xue Wei could sense an eerie atmosphere around the entire caravan . Was this due to them being ghosts and living in the Ghost Realm, or had something happened to this particular caravan causing it to have the gloomy aura?

"Why don’t we try to talk with them?" Lan asked, and Xue Wei nodded his head absentmindedly . He was on high alert . Both he and Lan were aware of how dangerous what they planned on doing was, but they also realized that they could not just continue moving forward with no knowledge about the realm they had entered .

They did not know whether or not they looked different from the Ghosts, nor did they know if they would be able to fight their way out of the caravan, in case things went wrong .

Lan did not have his overwhelming power anymore; he was a mere King, while Xue Wei had not even reached this level yet .

Slowly, but without hiding themselves, the two began moving towards the caravan . They had come fairly close when the carriages stopped in their tracks, and a middle-aged man came out from the first of the vehicles .

He looked like any other human, with the exception of his eyes . They were completely black, there was no pupil, and the sight caused Xue Wei to feel a shudder run down his spine .

He was not scared of the differences; he just feared about the fact that he did not look like this man might cause them some problems later .

The ghost looked at Xue Wei and Lan . His brows were furrowed, and he was gripping a sword handle tightly in his hands .

"Foreigners, what are you doing here?" he yelled, and Xue Wei, who was not too sure how to answer, looked at Lan .

"Tell him the truth," Lan decided . They could not trick anyone and say that they were ghosts, but being honest was also risky .

"The ox-headed man abandoned us on this desolate ground," Xue Wei said as he looked around . "We have been walking for days, but you and your caravan is the first sight of . . . other beings that we have encountered . "

Xue Wei was just about to say that they were the first sight of life, but he had managed to change the wording upon considering their situation .

These ghosts were not alive, but they were not really dead either . They were souls who existed within the Ghost Realm, but as to whether or not they could exist upon leaving, Xue Wei did not know .

The middle-aged ghost narrowed his eyes when he heard that they were dropped there by the ox-headed man .

Everyone knew the ox-headed man . His name was Niu Long, and he was one of the guardians of the Ghost Realm . He was not easy to get along with, and his arrogance made it so that everyone feared and revered him .

Why would he have brought two living beings to the Ghost Realm?

The Middle-aged Ghost was not unintelligent . To have been able to become a ghost, he was naturally rather shrewd and powerful . He had instantly sensed the breath of life from the two creatures in front of him, and while he was jealous of the life force, it no longer held any attraction to him .

Ghosts could not use life-force for anything . They needed souls to increase their strength, and since they were dead, the souls of the dead were much more compatible with them . A living soul might even do more damage to them than it assisted .

While this meant that they would not be treated as food in the Ghost Realm, it did not mean that they would not encounter danger .

Ghosts were much more ruthless than the ones on the surface world . They lived off consuming each other, and thus the constant battle and scheming against one another made survival a hard thing .

"Come with me," the middle-aged ghost finally said after considering his options .

"I will explain the Ghost Realm to you . "

The man had decided to help them, not because he pitied them, but because the ox-headed man had taken an interest in them .

The ordinary ghost had no way of knowing about a Rule Breaker, so when they looked at Xue Wei, they did not see anything special about him .

The only thing different about him was that he had a strange but very beautiful blue snake with four wings by his side that seemed to have a weird temper .

Xue Wei and Lan threw a glance at one another, and without the need to say anything, they knew what the other thought . Joining this caravan would be beneficial to them .

Xue Wei and Lan headed to the carriage that was occupied by the middle-aged ghost . They were quite surprised as to why no one else had exited the carriages to see them, but upon entering, they instantly knew why .

Inside the carriage was a big image of what was happening outside . It displayed everything, including sound, and everyone within the carriages would have known precisely what happened as if they had been there themselves .

The strange energy that the carriages were running on and the technology were utterly foreign to Lan and Xue Wei, causing both of them to be perplexed .

The middle-aged ghost smiled when he saw their reactions . He had previously been quite curious about these two living beings that had suddenly appeared in the Ghost Realm, and their reactions made him even more interested .

The Ghost Realm did not only take the dead from Xue Wei’s native world, but they also accepted the dead from many other worlds that had no contact with the Ten Courts of Hell, and thus it was incredibly vast, with many different districts .

Seeing that Xue Wei and Lan were new to the whole realm, the middle-aged man began explaining in detail about its layout and rules .
