Chapter 1122: Chapter 830: Great Escape from the Forbidden Land

He didn’t know if it was because the wicked demon creatures were too few in number, or if the fake aura he had created had been useful, or perhaps Wang Zijia’s stealth means were just that powerful.

In any case, Wang Zijia didn’t encounter any mishaps along the way.

It was even smoother than when he had explored the twelfth level!

Primarily because there weren’t any wandering Wicked Ghosts containing strange rules, it was as if Wang Zijia had entered a deserted realm.

Thus, guided by the feelings from the letter, Wang Zijia continued forward, eventually reaching one corner of this domain.

When Wang Zijia stopped in his tracks, he was somewhat dumbfounded.

At the end of his vision was an eerie jungle surrounded by ghastly trees.

Fiery molten rock flowed like sinister streams within the dark crevices of the earth.

And deep within the black forest lay a settlement constructed from unknown colossal bones?

Or perhaps, a village?

A tribe?

In any case, it was a dwelling place for intelligent beings!

The village was not large, seemingly comprising only about twenty buildings, with probably just a dozen or so wicked demon creatures living there on a daily basis.

The architecture was rather primitive, but one could slightly discern some grandiose styles, clearly built by the wicked demon creatures using human construction methods, modified with their own ideas.

Ghost Forest, molten rock land, a core village paved with bones, and bone houses built from massive skeletons, altogether pushed the ambiance entirely toward the netherworld!

The place where Wang Zijia’s letter was guiding him was precisely in that village!

To be precise, it was in the village center, the only building not made from bones.

It was a tower!

A jade tower!

It bore an uncanny similarity to the Nine-story Pagoda Wang Zijia had seen in the Yaoshan Realm, which extended underground.

The only difference was that this time, it was not located underground and was partially destroyed.

Well, that was probably the reason for its destruction.

’Was it discovered by the wicked demon creatures and dug out from the ground?’

’By the way, the one left in the Parenting Room seems to like to build underground as well, or maybe he knew I liked it, so that’s why he constructed it underground?’

As his thoughts flickered, Wang Zijia furrowed his brow to confirm the letter, then looked again at the distant, damaged Pagoda.

He could confirm that this object was his target.

But now... was this thing still of any use?

It didn’t matter, the tower was clearly a Time-Space Capsule, left for Wang Zijia by an unknown entity.

Like a Sealed Can, it was supposed to primarily contain terrifying Space-Time Energy, to aid him in traversing space-time.

However, the tower in front of him was not only dug out by someone, but it was also forced open.

The entire structure of the tower was clearly riddled with many cracks.

Especially at the first-floor main gate and the ninth floor, there was a particularly horrendous hole at each level.

Based on prior experience, the first floor should be where Space-Time Energy was stored, while floors two to eight were likely to contain various wicked demon creatures, or demon creatures born from the flesh and blood contamination by Fate Sin.

The ninth floor was his original domicile.

If this place had the same features, then the Space-Time Energy of the first floor was undoubtedly gone.

From the heavily saturated and abnormal Space-Time regulations of this entire realm, it could be guessed that when this tower was broken open, the Force of Space-Time was unleashed into the entire world!

And thus, a thoroughly Ghostly Domain was formed!

...

With thoughts flashing like lightning, Wang Zijia observed carefully.

He didn’t notice any activity in the whole village.

Which was normal; the demon creatures obviously had a sparse population, and this place, being a forward resource point, served as an outpost for Pollution infiltration.

In such a location, just like the Taoist School, there must be various tasks to attend to.

With so few people, it was impossible to stay here every day; there were many things to busy themselves with!

Even more so, the wicked demon creatures didn’t have low-level disciples to tidy up the surroundings like humans do; they only had high-end combat power!

This highlighted how short-handed they were!

What was more advantageous was that wicked demon creatures were inherently nature-bound rule beings, with their might vested in themselves, all depending on their Divine Powers and fate.

Thus, after observing for a long time, Wang Zijia didn’t see any arrays for Defense or anything similar.

Of course, this didn’t mean they lacked such means.

Small arrays no, but grand Divine Powers could be possible.

For instance, setting a domain rule or controlling a domain to form an array should still be feasible.

However, such grand measures were clearly rare.

As a result, the village before him was really like an ancient Human Race village that had just encountered the Great Dao of the World.

Populated by beings with terrifying cultivation, but the living area appeared just like an ordinary tribe, with no trace of arrays in sight.

...

After triple checking and confirming he had not overlooked anything, Wang Zijia proceeded cautiously.

He didn’t curiously explore the bone houses.

Though they might contain treasures, if there was some kind of early warning mechanism, that would be awkward.

If, like monks, they carried treasures in their personal storage spaces and he accidentally triggered an alarm, that would be even more vexing.

Therefore, Wang Zijia carefully made his way through the Ghost Forest, arrived at the Bone Village, passed by a series of bone houses, and finally approached the damaged Nine-story Jade Pagoda.

The main gate of the jade tower was originally supposed to have a puzzle-like door, similar to the one in the Yaoshan Realm’s tower.

But now it was brutally shattered, leaving behind an irregular hole, with only faint traces left to see.

Standing at the entrance, Wang Zijia fully confirmed that the Space-Time Energy inside the tower was gone.

Because... the entire area in front of the gate was deeply eroded by Space-Time Energy.

Wang Zijia could clearly sense that a terrifying amount of Space-Time Energy had once poured out from here, contaminating the entire world!
