Chapter 1518: Chapter 1477 Life Forbidden Zone

“Lu Chuan, do you know why crossing tribulation is the limit in this world, beyond which no one can proceed? Because that path is broken.

In fact, with your current level of cultivation, even if I tell these things to you, it would only add to your worries and be meaningless. However, there are some things you have the right to know.

Many, many years ago, so long ago that even I am unclear, only that when I was young, the Immortal Road was already broken. As for the reason, no one knows. After the Immortal Path broke, no one in this world can set foot on that road. Back in the day, even I…

In any case, if you want to strive for that chance of survival, you must forge your own path to possibly open that door and ascend. I succeeded, but also failed, ending up neither human nor ghost. If anyone has the greatest chance to reclaim that road, besides you, it would probably be this girl.

She is on a path already tread by others; if she continues, she may claim it for herself.”

Listening to the Tower Spirit’s advice, Lu Chuan felt increasingly lost in the clouds and mist.

What path, ascension? It sounds like some unspeakable secret, yet for Lu Chuan, it feels too distant.

“Lu Chuan, after this matter, you should help Yun Yan find her body, and then… open that door and look for your parents.”

“That door refers to… the one leading to the Small World?”

“The path of this world has ended. Continuing your cultivation here only leads to a dead end. In the Small World, you might find the true road. Don’t worry, I will always be by your side.”

“…I will remember.”

Although Lu Chuan was still somewhat confused, since Tower Spirit had said so, it probably wouldn’t deceive him.

However…

When will this matter be resolved?

After informing Tang Yurou of Tower Spirit’s assumption, the little girl was both shocked and delighted.

She was happy because she could continue her cultivation and it seemed she might become even more powerful than others here, even Lu Chuan!

Her worry was when she could follow in Lu Chuan’s footsteps, rather than becoming the one assumed to need protection once danger looms. Tang Yurou no longer wished to be a burden.

“Yurou, no one has ever thought you were a burden. You just need some time to build up strength. Don’t belittle yourself like that.”

“I’ve been building up for so long, when will I finally shine?”

“Well…”

Lu Chuan’s mouth twitched as he somewhat guiltily averted his gaze.

Tower Spirit only said to wait more, but didn’t specify how long the wait would be!

Seeing this, Tang Yurou felt even more wronged.

“Brother Lu Chuan, even you!”

“No no no, I’m not brushing you off. I just think you shouldn’t underestimate yourself. Everyone has things they’re good at; you just happen not to excel at this one thing, but it doesn’t mean you’re not good at other things.”

Tang Yurou sniffled, tears welling up in her eyes, looking pitifully at Lu Chuan, choking back her words: “For example…”

Lu Chuan: “…”

Tang Yurou: “Do you believe I can cry for you?”

“There are, there are! For example, our Yurou is very cute, very beautiful, and also, our Yurou cooks delicious food. Aren’t these all strengths?”

With much persuasion, Lu Chuan finally managed to comfort Tang Yurou.

After saying goodbye to the girls one by one, Lu Chuan returned to his room and once again took out the letter that his grandfather had left for him, placing it on the desk.

Lu Chuan only felt inexplicably anxious; he even felt somewhat afraid to open the letter and see what was inside.

But the letter had to be opened, and Lu Chuan needed, must, understand what his grandfather had left for him.

With this thought, Lu Chuan no longer hesitated, reached out to rip open the envelope, and took out three sheets of paper filled with writing.

“I suppose when you see this letter, your grandfather has already left. Hahaha, don’t worry. Before the departure, grandpa divined a fortune, which showed blessings and misfortunes interwoven with each other. If I’m lucky, I might fulfill some wishes, so you don’t need to worry. Grandpa will surely be safe and sound.

You must be very confused, right? Why did Grandpa leave without saying goodbye once again, and why leave such a letter? Indeed, the matter back then, Grandpa should also tell you some truths.”

Seeing this, Lu Chuan was slightly relieved but his heart was also mixed with some concerns.

He was happy that grandpa was safe, at least for now, just having gone somewhere without immediate danger.

His worry was that grandpa had ventured into the Small World alone, leaving Lu Chuan genuinely concerned for his safety.

However, given the situation, Lu Chuan could only hope that grandpa was safe and sound; there was nothing else he could do.

Amidst swirling thoughts, Lu Chuan sighed softly and continued reading.

“In fact, your mother is from the Small World, and her identity is rather special. This, for now, Grandpa cannot tell you. In short, after giving birth to you, your mother had to return to the Small World for some reason. Your father, worried about her safety, decided to go along. So, they never intended to leave you behind; they just had reasons they couldn’t avoid. Hopefully, you don’t resent them.

Grandpa left this time because he learned that your father and mother were in trouble; they were sent to the Life Forbidden Zone. Grandpa had to go, even if it meant leaving you alone again. Grandpa is truly sorry.

Once this matter is resolved, come to the Small World. Here, the answers you seek await. Grandpa will be waiting for you here.

…”

As Lu Chuan read the very last word on the paper, his feelings grew increasingly complex.

First, there was the Tower Spirit, and now grandpa.

Both said that what he wanted was in the Small World. Yet, Lu Chuan himself didn’t even know what he truly wanted. How did they know? The more he learned, the more confused he became.

Unable to make sense of it, Lu Chuan chose not to think about what in the Small World could be what he needs. In comparison, Lu Chuan was more concerned about the Life Forbidden Zone, which Grandpa mentioned. What kind of existence was that?

“Tower Spirit, this Life Forbidden Zone… is it dangerous?”

“Exceedingly dangerous.”

The Tower Spirit replied without a moment’s hesitation, giving a direct answer.

“The danger level inside the Life Forbidden Zone might far exceed your imagination. Even those in the Tribulation Crossing Realm could very likely lose their lives there. An ordinary blade of grass, a tree, or even a wisp of toxic smoke might become the reason for your demise.

Even after thousands of years in the Small World, only the periphery of the Life Forbidden Zone has been explored, and as for the depths of the zone, at least I have never heard of anyone entering safely and exiting unharmed. This is the Life Forbidden Zone.”
