Chapter 1892: Crossing The Ganges (1/2)

“The crossing vessel is here.” Someone shouted after seeing the boat. Many experts in front of the Golden Shrine circled around for a look. Even the ones that couldn’t come closer all quickly glanced over.

“Is someone boarding?” A guy had to ask.

“What happens if we go up there? Maybe we can get to the other sh.o.r.e.” A young expert wanted to try.

“Go up there, my a.s.s!” His senior immediately slapped the back of his head to wake him up: “Back then, your ancestor was a top High G.o.d with three totems. He came on that boat and never returned!”

After stating this, the senior had a sad expression.

The first-timers here shuddered at this story. Even a High G.o.d with seven totems couldn’t come back?

“Does this boat really go to the other sh.o.r.e?” The young expert asked again.

His senior shook his head in response: “Who knows? Legend tells that no one has ever returned after boarding, as if they have disappeared from thin air. There’s no lack of famous characters boarding but yea, no success. At least not to my knowledge.”

The spectators here for the fun became afraid. Some were tempted earlier for a shot but this warning was like pouring a basin of cold water over their head.

“Reaching the other sh.o.r.es, freed of karma, to obtain the auspicious fruit and eternal life. I wonder if this is true.” An old expert was still tempted while looking at the boat but he managed to restrain himself.

High G.o.ds being unable to come back were the best cautionary sign. The crowd had no choice but to let go of this thought.

Even though eternal life was quite tempting, the lack of success deterred everyone. Those stronger than them have tried and failed so they didn’t dare to take the risk.

The crowd became quite curious about the rowing corpse. It had no expression, only a corpse without emotions. Nevertheless, none tried to do anything to provoke it because everything that had to do with Buddhism here had some karmic ties. There was no escaping once being involved.

“Board it.” Li Qiye checked out the time and found that it was right. He told the princess before boarding himself.

The princess followed him without any hesitation. She had boundless confidence in Li Qiye and was fearless as long as he was near.

“Fiercest and Jilin Princess are boarding.” The scene became crowd as many eyes darted towards them.

“This Fiercest is unreal, actually daring to go. Is there something he is afraid of?” An expert was startled to see this.

Amidst the astonished crowd, the corpse rower slowly moved the boat and left without waiting for anyone.

This has always been the case for the crossing vessels. It would appear at certain intervals by the ferry and stop for a brief period. Next, it didn’t matter whether there were pa.s.sengers or not, it would leave at the right time.

Legend has it that it had never stopped this particular schedule. No one knew where it came from and where it was going. Though some so-called invincible characters - the strongest of their era - had boarded, none ever made it back.

Because of this, the crossing vessel became synonymous with death. Later on, fewer people were willing to give it a shot.
