Chapter 600: True Horror in No Man’s Land (1/2)

Xue Wei was somewhat confused about the purpose of merging two different worlds. When merged, they would, in theory, belong to the same world, but due to the various rules and regulations, most things could be ignored and they would end up clashing against one another instead.

This was also the reason why the No Man's Land was considered a dangerous area where no one would venture to unless they had no other option.

While this area was located in their world, it was actually uncontrolled by the laws that the local cultivators were used to, so they would have to either adapt quickly, or simply be lucky to survive.

However, it was also because of these contracting things that ensured that the beasts within this pocket dimension would not wreak havoc on the rest of the world. None of the strongest beasts had the ability to leave the No Man's Land where they were locked up within.

”If this is the case, then the dangers we will face in the future will only get worse.”

Although they had all thought of this, only Hei Gou was willing to mention it, and his words made the others feel somewhat helpless.

It was indeed the case. Since this No Man's Land was in conflict with the rest of the world, then it was clear that the beasts within would not be able to ascend to a higher realm upon breaking through to the immortal realm.

However, even if they could not break through the realm itself, they would have been in this No Man's Land for so long that they would be considered equally strong to a weaker immortal, and if they were to encounter these beasts, then they would be helpless, no matter how swiftly they fled.

”Fortunately, that last creature was only interested in the scorpions. Also, I don't think that it was at the immortal realm, but even that thing was able to make us flee in fear, imagine those true overlords of this area.”

Since Hei Gou had already mentioned the danger of those near-immortal beasts, Lin Xiao could not help but comment as well. It was clear to them all that although they had been prepared to face danger upon entering this area, they did not know just how severe the threat to their lives were before now.

Even so, none of them had any intention of backing down. They had not gone here for fun or to experience the environment. To them, the journey through the No Man's Land was purely done for the sake of moving forward and not becoming passive in the hands of their hidden enemy.

Since they were likely to die if they stayed passive, then they might as well take this great risk and try to move forward.

”I am sorry.” Xue Wei was aware that none of them would back down. Even Hei Gou, who had forgotten his memories, did not seem to have any intention of leaving them behind, but the target of this hidden enemy was clearly Xue Wei, and they were risking their lives only to ensure that he could keep living.
