Long Chen narrowed his eyes as he observed the surroundings. At the same time, he carefully checked his own situation.
Sure enough, compared to Tiewei Mountain, the gravity here was much more terrifying. He couldn't fly or return to the world of black fog. If he couldn't find a way, he might not be able to get out of the City of Vain Deaths.
Gravity was one of the changes. Another was the pressure of the God Martial Soul. Under the terrifying pressure and atmosphere of the City of Vain Deaths, even Long Chen's Soul-Devouring Demonic Pupils were reduced to less than one mile, not to mention the others, their spiritual consciousness was useless.
These didn't have a great impact on Long Chen.
He was standing in a corner of the gloomy city. In front of him was a gloomy street. When Long Chen was about to go forward to check the situation, Mo Xiaolang had already woken up in the Great Virtual Realm. He didn't look any different.
"Big brother, let me out."
Long Chen immediately let Mo Xiaolang out.
"You've reached the ninth grade Demon Immortal." Long Chen asked with a smile.
"Hmm."
Mo Xiaolang stretched his body in excitement. Then, he looked around and said in amazement, "Is this the City of Wronged Deaths? Why do I feel it's a bit similar to Tiewei Mountain? The only difference is that the buildings here are intact and undamaged."
"Hmm."
Long Chen nodded. The black fog here was too heavy. He couldn't see too far. However, the more he observed, the more shocked he became.
"There seems to be something ahead …" Mo Xiaolang swallowed his saliva and said. Although he was already a ninth grade Demon Immortal and his battle strength was close to the level of Long Xing and Wang Chen, he was still a bit nervous about the City of Vain Deaths.
Long Chen also noticed that there were two rows of houses in the gloomy street ahead. When they came here, they found that the doors were tightly closed.
Long Chen and Mo Xiaolang looked around and saw many skeletons lying on the ground in a disorderly manner. Some of them were even shattered. The skeletons made Long Chen and Mo Xiaolang a little uneasy.
Just as Long Chen and Mo Xiaolang stepped onto the street, they suddenly heard a loud noise coming from the two rows of houses. The noise came from every house. Long Chen and Mo Xiaolang were startled and quickly huddled together.
Every house seemed to have a ghost living in it. As if they had smelled the scent of Long Chen, they all woke up. Heavy breathing, mournful wails, and low sobbing came from both sides. For a moment, it was incomparably chaotic.
Boom boom boom.
All the doors of the houses were shaking violently at this moment. There were things inside the houses that were violently slamming against the doors, making loud rumbling sounds. There were even some houses that were shaking. The ancient black stone doors were shaking violently, looking like they could not withstand a single blow.
Long Chen and Mo Xiaolang became nervous. It was possible that in the next moment, there would be countless terrifying ghosts coming out. The skeletons and corpses on the street were probably killed by them. Their flesh and blood were probably eaten by them.
However, the beast-like ghost howls, low sobs, and loud wails did not stop. All the doors were trembling, but not a single ghost rushed out.
"Big Brother, look."
Mo Xiaolang pointed in a direction. Long Chen looked over and saw that the ancient stone door Mo Xiaolang was pointing at had a yellow, dilapidated rune stuck on it. This rune seemed to be embedded in the ancient, dilapidated stone door. It emitted a faint yellow brilliance that fused into the ancient stone door. Perhaps it was because of this dilapidated rune that the ghosts in the houses could not rush out.
There were two reasons why Long Chen was nervous. First, this was the rumored and mysterious City of the Wronged. Second, these ghosts were clearly not the ordinary ghosts outside. Almost every one of them had an aura that was not inferior to the Giant Devils. There were even some that Long Chen could not sense. Only ghosts with strength close to the Tribulation Realm and the ten Ghost Kings could not be sensed by Long Chen.
There were tens of thousands of houses in the City of the Wronged. Could it be that there were so many ghosts imprisoned in every house?
Although those powerful and terrifying ghosts could not come out under the suppression of the strange runes, the tearing wails and ghost cries were endless. Every ancient stone door was on the verge of collapse, as though it would shatter at any moment. Long Chen's heart still trembled.
"Let's go over and take a look."
Long Chen mustered up his courage. He discovered that almost all the houses had windows. There were steel railings on the windows. Occasionally, the railings would emit a yellow brilliance. It was likely the power of the yellow runes. It was not as simple as protecting the stone door.
Tens of thousands of ghosts that were equivalent to the perfected Martial Dao. Long Chen did not dare imagine if he could survive if these runes were suddenly gone. No matter how powerful he was, he would probably be eaten alive by these ghosts, just like Wang Chao.
Thinking of Wang Chao's fate, Long Chen could not help but feel a chill down his spine.
Long Chen and Mo Xiaolang came to a window and looked inside. It was pitch-black inside. Just as Long Chen and Mo Xiaolang moved their heads closer, a badly mutilated, bloodstained face appeared in front of them.
"Why do you want to kill me?"
The ghost was dressed in snow-white clothes. Its figure was exactly the same as a human. It had messy long hair that dragged on the ground a few times, coiling together like a snake.
Long Chen was startled. A chill rushed out of his heart.
Rip.
On that bloody face, a pair of bloody eyes stared at Long Chen and Mo Xiaolang. In the next instant, it opened its bloody mouth, and a scarlet tongue pierced towards Long Chen's eyes like a blade.
At that moment, a horrifying resentment and Yin Qi surrounded Long Chen's body, causing a chill to run down Long Chen's spine. He quickly lowered his body and retreated with Mo Xiaolang.
The scarlet tongue extended for more than ten meters. Long Chen was only able to escape more than ten meters away from it.
"Why do you want to kill me? I don't deserve to die. I want your life."
Boom! Boom!
Boom! The scarlet tongue retracted, and a pair of bloody claws reached out from inside. It grabbed the rusty steel railing of the window and shook it with all its might, trying to squeeze out.
"Damn it."
Long Chen took a deep breath. Fortunately, that damn thing was trapped inside. If he was one step slower, his eyes would have been pierced.
"What is this place? The fog is so thick. Where should we go?" Mo Xiaolang looked around in confusion, his handsome face filled with worry. "What is this place?
"We can't wander around."
Long Chen shook his head. He ignored the dozens of ghosts that were still banging on the door of the house. He looked at the bones on the ground in a daze.
"Big brother, why do they keep shouting why they want to kill him? Why do they have iron chains on their bodies? What's going on? What is this City of Vain Deaths? Why is it called the City of Vain Deaths?" Mo Xiaolang followed behind him and asked a few questions.
Long Chen checked the bones on the ground and said, "Some of them weren't killed, but died of old age. That is to say, if we can't find a way out, we may also stay here for the rest of our lives."
"Ah." Mo Xiaolang was stunned.
Everyone in the Great Void Realm had ugly expressions on their faces.
"Let me out." Li Xuanji's beautiful eyes wandered as she said. She had been staying inside for the past few days.
Long Chen hadn't looked at her for a long time. After coming out of the Great Void Realm, she stood quietly in front of Long Chen.
Her complexion was like jade, her figure was tall and slender, her waist was slender, and her legs were straight. She wore a black dress that fluttered naturally, and she had an otherworldly temperament. What was different from Ling Xi was that her temperament was sharp and profound.
She walked to the window that Long Chen was at and said, "I feel that there is a very strong immortal spirit growing in this house. The ghosts inside did not destroy it."
"Hmm."
Long Chen stepped forward, and sure enough, he could sense the existence of heavenly treasures and earthly treasures. And it wasn't just that. Every single room seemed to have something like that. Some were immortal essences, some were weapons, and some were undetectable. In other words, every single one of the ghosts was guarding something.
"I understand."
Long Chen was a little excited and said, "Why did those who have been here say that there are treasures everywhere in the City of Wrongful Deaths? This is a strange place, but there is definitely a controller. If we want to get the things inside, I'm afraid we have to kill the ghosts inside …"
"So that's how it is." Mo Xiaolang was also enlightened.
Long Chen knew that they were all headless flies when they came to the City of Wrongful Deaths. But now, it seemed like they had finally found a path.
Those who had come to steal treasures, even though they knew how terrifying the ghosts inside were, would still risk their lives to steal the good things inside.
After all, for something to appear in the City of Wrongful Deaths, how could it be simple?
The information that the controller had revealed to Long Chen was probably to kill the ghosts and take the treasures. At least, Long Chen felt that they should try to see if it was feasible. If they did not do this, it could be said that they would not be able to find a way out.
Moreover, there was so much black fog in the City of Wrongful Deaths that Long Chen could not tell which way to go.
"Let's try to deal with one first." Long Chen calculated in his mind and said decisively.
He looked at Li Xuanji.
"I'll go first. You guys be careful."
Li Xuanji was self-aware. She knew that every ghost was terrifyingly powerful, and it would be dangerous for her to stay outside.
Long Chen felt much more relaxed. He nodded to Mo Xiaolang and the two surrounded the door of the ghost's house. This was a ghost, and its strength must be slightly weaker.
Both of their gazes were focused on the old yellow rune.
At this time, the dilapidated black stone door was shaking violently.
"Get ready, I'll do it."
Long Chen held the Blood Scarlet Sky in one hand and took a deep breath. The Blood Scarlet Sky stretched towards the stone door. With a little force, the yellow rune was actually sent flying.
In that instant, the stone door suddenly shattered.
