Dragon Hidden in the Sky

Chapter 1252 Illusory Image

"Be careful!" the big yellow dog growled.

Just then, a strange scream suddenly came from behind the door!

The scream was piercing, and as it echoed, Ye Qing saw that behind the gate, there seemed to be endless ghostly figures struggling and roaring, trying to escape the constraints of this place, and rushing towards Ye Qing and the others!

Ye Qing felt a chill run down her spine.

Even with his mental strength, he was momentarily stunned and stood there blankly!

Apart from the big yellow dog, only Zhang Ke stood still, but amidst the terrifying screams, Zhang Ke trembled all over, and his clothes were instantly soaked with sweat.

The big yellow dog, however, seemed quite calm. He curled his lip and said, "Why bother?"

The ghostly figures rushed out, but behind the bronze gate in the courtyard, their shadows began to fade away and eventually disappeared completely.

The whole process lasted for two or three minutes, until the last ghostly figure disappeared, and the roar gradually stopped.

Ye Qing and the others snapped back to reality, looking at Zhang Ke, who was drenched in sweat not far away. Ye Qing asked, "What happened?"

"Many spirits rushed out from inside, but they seemed unable to escape this ancient bronze palace and all disappeared," the big yellow dog said. "The road ahead won't be easy. Damn it, I hope that bastard Zhang Tianlin doesn't go too deep! Otherwise, we'll be in big trouble!"

"You seem to know a lot about the Six Paths of Reincarnation Palace?" Ye Qing asked.

"It's alright!" the big yellow dog said, recalling, "I think I came here when I was young? It's been so long, I can't remember."

Ye Qing looked at the big yellow dog with a strange expression.

He sensed something was off about that bastard.

At first, Ye Qing thought that he was from the same era as Tian Ge and the others, and that he followed Tian Ge and the other four spiritual beings, becoming a sycophant of that generation of Vermilion Bird Divine Bone!

But later, this bastard actually knew Zhang Tianlin.

Who is Zhang Tianlin? He is a figure who existed before the current Heavenly Court was established. How could the big yellow dog know such a person? Just how long has it lived?

And now, judging from what it says, it seems to have existed in this universe before the Chaotic Star Sea collapsed.

The origin of this bastard is too mysterious.

"Everyone..." the big yellow dog said, "What follows is a test of your resilience and spirit. No one can help you. You must remember one thing: you are still alive. No matter what happens, never forget that. If you lose your way and your soul is snatched away, you will die. But if you pass this test, the strength of your souls will be greatly enhanced!"

"What's next?" Long Rui asked curiously.

Sun Jie pondered for a moment and said, "After passing the Gates of Hell... naturally comes... the Road to the Underworld!"

The big yellow dog nodded and said, "Yes, next is the Road to the Underworld. Once you enter the Road to the Underworld, you will not see any of us. All you will see are souls locked up by these Six Paths of Reincarnation. They wander between the Road to the Underworld, never to be reincarnated. No matter what they say to you, remember, do not answer!"

Then it added, "I'll say it three times: Don't answer, don't answer, don't answer!"

"We'll meet again after we cross the Road to the Underworld!" said the big yellow dog.

As he spoke, he rushed over immediately and was the first to enter through the gate.

Sun Jie's eyes flickered slightly, a smile appearing in them, before she stepped inside.

If the big yellow dog knows the Six Paths of Reincarnation Palace best, then Sun Jie is probably the next most knowledgeable.

"Let's go!" Zhang Heng said.

Then the group quickly walked through the gate.

As the group entered, the mirror slowly disappeared behind the bronze hall.

The sky lanterns lit above gradually went out.

The only thing left in the entire place was that bewitching green light swaying underwater.

The bronze gate closed slowly without making a sound.

At the same time, in front of the Mirror of Rebirth, a golden phantom suddenly flickered slightly.

The Mirror of Rebirth seemed to sense fear and quickly fell silent.

A colossal golden dragon gradually materialized.

The dragon lay on the platform, its whiskers turned white, and its entire body looked covered in blood.

It was as if ropes from the sky were piercing through his body.

His eyes were somewhat cloudy.

Above the dragon's head was a phantom figure, bound by endless chains descending from the sky.

"Is this the person you... chose?" The phantom's voice was weak and ethereal.

“Hmm!” the golden dragon said, “From the moment he set foot in this region, I sensed the presence of ‘divine foresight.’ He was right back then; everything is unfolding exactly as he predicted!”

"What did you bestow upon him?" the phantom asked.

"Nachiworth!" The golden dragon's shadow gradually faded into nothingness as it said, "By the way, while you were unconscious, Long Xuan left, and your child... Long Xuan gave him to that brat!"

"Gone...?" he murmured. "Zhang Tianlin...should be released too."

The sound grew increasingly ethereal, and then the figure seemed unable to hold on any longer and vanished completely, along with the endless chains.

The dragon's figure gradually disappeared.

At this moment, the gates of hell were completely closed.

……

Behind the Gates of Hell, after Ye Qing stepped in, he saw a path; there was only one path in front of him.

This road leads to some unknown place; it is very wide, and it seems to be covered with endless skeletons.

Ye Qing did not hesitate. He concealed his figure and stepped onto the road to the underworld.
