Chapter 38 is truly a perfect place to die.
......
Upon entering the rift, Wang Sheng found himself in complete darkness.
He felt as if he had stepped into a black hole, unable to perceive sound, temperature, vision, or touch; he had no physical sensations, and even his consciousness was about to be stripped away.
This process lasted a full minute.
next moment.
Suddenly, a vast, lush primeval forest appeared before us.
"Could this be...?"
Primordial Star?
The towering, exaggerated trees almost blocked out the sun, but the world beneath their dappled shadows remained bright.
Green leaves, flowing water, birdsong.
This place seems similar to the forests of Blue Star, the only difference being that these trees are enormous, ridiculously large, so large that Wang Sheng appears to have been shrunk several times over and placed in the jungle.
He even suspected that a dinosaur might jump out from behind some big tree at any moment and eat him.
"What a wonderful place to die."
He couldn't help but sigh.
Whether they were killed by humans, bitten to death by wild animals, or captured and roasted by local indigenous people.
In this place where there are no laws or moral constraints, it is also the area where Wang Sheng can truly die freely.
It's simply heaven.
Since Xiaohao comes from this place, there must be some of his people here, right?
It seems there's a small side quest to complete besides courting death.
"I wonder if I can find clues to the advanced techniques of the 'Primitive Body Refining Method' by following this path. Let's explore and see."
"Young man, since this is your first time in the 'Origin Realm,' we two brothers will definitely take good care of you, don't worry."
Suddenly, a voice, feigning enthusiasm, rang out from the side.
The one who spoke was one of the two young men who had tried to get him to team up with them outside; his name was Beast Chong.
The other one is named Lu Guan, and both of them are at the high level of the Bronze Bone Realm.
Upon hearing this, Wang Sheng revealed a harmless and gentle smile:
"Then I'll have to trouble you two, brothers."
Under the influence of the "Qi Concealing Technique," Wang Sheng not only concealed his Qi and blood, but also his unique temperament honed through repeated life and death trials, which disappeared without a trace.
From an outsider's perspective, Wang Sheng was no different from a naive and inexperienced teenager.
Then, Shou Chong and Lu Guan exchanged a glance, and each saw joy in the other's eyes.
They traveled light, without bringing much with them.
It remains to be seen what valuables Wang Sheng, dressed neatly and carrying a large travel backpack, might possess.
The two men had just seen Wang Sheng handle the paperwork and pay money very quickly, so they figured he must be a fat sheep. Moreover, only a rich young master who was well protected by his family could have such a naive demeanor.
However, they were not in a hurry to take action now, as they were too close to the exit.
First, gain their trust, then lure them to a remote place...
"Looks like we're in luck; we found a water source as soon as we arrived. Let's mark it."
Suddenly, the beast spoke, raising the locator on his wrist and pressing the blue button on it.
Wang Sheng then revealed a look of doubt.
Lu Guan smiled and explained:
"See the blue button on your locator? It can mark fixed coordinates, and you can find the marked location at any time by looking at your own route map on the screen."
Wang Sheng suddenly realized, raised his wrist, and looked at the fixed locator.
Sure enough, there were two buttons on the side of the display screen, one red and one blue.
Then Lu Guan continued:
"This red button is even more important; remember it."
Lu Guan turned around, aimed the locator at the crack behind him, pressed the red button, and then the locator's display showed the words "[Band Marked]".
"In this way, we have marked the fracture exit. Since the fracture inside the source boundary is constantly moving, conventional location methods are useless, but the locator can receive an invisible and stable 'wave' that is emitted between different fractures, which is the only way for us to find our way back to the fracture."
Wang Sheng nodded in understanding.
It's quite high-tech; no wonder it requires a 5,000 yuan deposit.
He turned around and pressed the red button, aiming it at the crack.
The pitch-black spatial rift, taller than a person, was indeed slowly creeping forward.
It seems to exist outside of three-dimensional space; even when it encounters an obstacle, it does not tear it apart, but rather overlaps and coexists on the same three-dimensional coordinate system.
This fissure may seem to move slowly, but it actually enters a period of turbulence that lasts for 2 to 4 hours every day.
During periods of turmoil, the movement of the fissures will be extremely irregular. If organisms attempt to enter or exit during this time, they will be injured or maimed, or even die and be trapped in the void.
"Let's mark it and hurry up and go."
The beast glanced warily at the rift behind it, seemingly worried that someone might come in and disrupt their plans.
"I have a general idea of the terrain around here, and I roughly know which way to go to find something."
"Okay, let's go then."
The three quickly climbed over the bushes, led by the beast, and headed in one direction.
Not long after, at the exit of the fissure.
He Yunwei and Jiang Xi, accompanied by a hired guard, emerged from the crack.
At this moment, in the vast jungle, there was no one else in sight except for the three of them.
Seeing this, He Yunwei smiled instead:
"Great, it's Jungle! Jiang Xi, your trashy superpower has finally come in handy."
"Tch, you're the trash. Talking to plants is really fun, you know?!"
Jiang Xi pursed his lips, then reached out and touched a bush, closed his eyes and felt it for a few seconds before speaking:
"It's ahead, we haven't gone far, but we're moving quite fast."
"Okay, then let's keep our distance and follow them."
The two set off immediately, with guards following behind.
What they didn't notice was that another team of three emerged from the rift and quietly followed them.
......
One hour later.
A remote place deep in a primeval forest.
"Let's rest here for a while."
"Shou Chong spoke up, and as he spoke, he gave Lu Guan a wink."
Lu Guan glanced behind him knowingly and secretly made a hand gesture.
Wang Sheng didn't notice these subtle actions.
He was just very confused:
"Why haven't those two made a move yet?"
To be honest, he had already guessed their purpose.
They either robbed him of his money or killed him to silence him before robbing him.
As the beast deliberately led the group to remote areas along the way, Wang Sheng already knew that things would probably develop in this direction.
But the three of them ran for a full hour, and neither of them had made a move yet.
Something's strange.
How about... we give it a push?
Wang Sheng found a moss-covered rock to sit on, then took off his travel bag and took out a vial of secondary solid culture medium.
He gulped down the medicine as if it were nothing, as if he were drinking a beverage.
Upon seeing this, both Shou Chong and Lu Guan's eyes lit up:
It really is a big fat sheep!
Their greed was almost impossible to suppress.
But the two still showed no intention of making a move.
Shou Chong swallowed hard, pretending not to have seen what Wang Sheng was drinking, and said:
"Young man, you stay here and watch our luggage for us. Lu Guan and I will go up to the top of the tree to check our location again, so we don't get lost."
After saying that, he and Lu Guan quickly climbed a 100-meter-tall tree.
Once the two reached the top of the tree and confirmed that no one was approaching, Beast's expression darkened.
"It has two tails."
Lu Guan clicked his tongue upon hearing this:
"Two groups of people, one in front and one behind, are probably both after this kid. It's not as simple as a rich young master going out to gain experience. They're either guards or fellow travelers who came with us to rob a fat sheep."
Beastmaster's helplessness:
"What should we do then? Just cancel the ticket? Wasted our trip accompanying this young master?"
"No."
Lu Guan's face turned cold.
He glanced down at Wang Sheng, who was completely unsuspecting under the tree, a ruthless glint in his eyes:
"Let's go all in. If this deal goes through, we can all quit."
The beast frowned:
"What do you want to do?"
Lu Guan remained silent for a moment, then suddenly looked deeper into the forest, a cruel smile curling at the corner of his mouth.
"Let's go to that place."
"Isn't there a forbidden area here that no one dares to go to?"
