Chapter 680: Chapter 642 The Real Location of Ghost Mother and Others_1

In fact, every time Pang Jian utilized the "Purgatory Gate" to teleport and arrive at a different Heavenly Tribulation Pillar, there would be images corresponding and appearing on this side.

Every time, the Ghost Mother would howl towards the newly revealed Heavenly Tribulation Pillar.

It seemed that after depleting too much Divine Power, the Ghost Mother’s flying speed had slowed, and the time Pang Jian stayed at the Heavenly Tribulation Pillar became shorter and shorter.

The final outcome was that the Ghost Mother had never truly touched the images of those Heavenly Tribulation Pillars even once.

But before this, each time only a single Heavenly Tribulation Pillar would manifest, and it would abruptly disappear soon after Pang Jian left.

This time, however, seven appeared all at once!

Seven ethereal Heavenly Tribulation Pillars, like bright lighthouses, stood towering in the hazy and misty otherworldly land.

The Ghost Mother, Zhu Ji, and Li Wang, these three Human True Gods, still in their "Divine Dharma Aspect" form, moved towards the Heavenly Tribulation Pillar that was closer to them.

They were like people drowning in the sea who suddenly saw a log, desperately trying to grasp onto it.

Indeed, the Ghost Mother, Li Wang, and Zhu Ji had always been in that strangely peculiar lower position of the otherworldly land.

And each time, the appearing Heavenly Tribulation Pillar was high above their heads.

The same held true at this moment.

In that space being manipulated by six objects, the tired and anxious eyes of these three True Gods now gleamed with a light of hope.

They felt they could finally escape that ghostly place.

The revelation of seven Heavenly Tribulation Pillars together was different from usual; they did not vanish, their images remained in existence.

After an unknown period, the Ghost Mother arrived first beneath one of the Heavenly Tribulation Pillars, and her "Divine Dharma Aspect" surrounded by Divine Light, fiercely surged upwards.

It seemed that the next moment she would reach the position of the Heavenly Tribulation Pillar.

A cluster of dim grey light suddenly appeared at this point!

At the site where the Ghost Mother’s "Divine Dharma Aspect" struck, at the base of the Heavenly Tribulation Pillar, the dim grey light abruptly flashed.

The Ghost Mother’s "ascent to heaven" was thus thwarted at that step.

Her "Divine Dharma Aspect" trembled loudly, casting off many specks of light, her face revealing confusion and bewilderment, she unwillingly attempted again.

The vanished dim grey light, for the second time, appeared abruptly!

Her "Divine Dharma Aspect", trying to break away from below, to reach level with, or even surpass, the Heavenly Tribulation Pillar, failed to push through the cluster of dim grey light and once again fell back down.

An audience full of expectation, wishing to see her succeed, suddenly fell silent.

Before long, Zhu Ji and Li Wang also reached below two other ethereal Heavenly Tribulation Pillars and surged upwards just like the Ghost Mother.

The same dim grey light reappeared!

Li Wang and Zhu Ji, both following in the Ghost Mother’s footsteps, were likewise hindered.

"It’s as if a Heaven Forbidden exists, hovering in the void above their heads!"

Tian Du San Ren’s expression turned ugly, and he couldn’t help but say, "Where exactly are the three of them? Why is there some kind of prohibition above their heads? Why are there illusions of Heavenly Tribulation Pillars?"

"I think, I know where they have been dragged to by that Sovereign of the Outer Realm," Su Wenrou said with an expression of utmost gravity.

The attention of those who had been intently watching the trio shifted to her.

Su Wenrou took a deep breath, adjusted her emotions, and said, "Where are the true Heavenly Tribulation Pillars located?"

Jiang Fan exclaimed, "The Fifth Realm!"

Su Wenrou gently nodded and said, "If those Heavenly Tribulation Pillars are indeed the seven from the Fifth Realm, then where do you think Li Wang and the others are trapped right now?"

As soon as she spoke, a chill ran down everyone’s spines.

Dong Shangqing licked the corner of his mouth with difficulty and said, "You mean, in the endless darkness beneath the Fifth Realm?"

Tian Du San Ren exclaimed in horror, "The legendary Sixth Realm?"

"If there is a Sixth Realm, then the three of them are in it!" Su Wenrou spoke with a coldness rising from the bottom of her heart, "That Sovereign named Luo Hongyan, using the six small objects from the Heavenly Tribulation Pillar, has created a portal for teleportation!"

"He lets us see and know the plight of Li Wang and the others because He is enticing us to go and rescue them."

"If we are not calm enough, and more people step in attempting to rescue them, our fate will be the same as theirs."

"Below the Fifth Realm, in endless darkness, there has still not been a precedent for someone to enter and then come out!"

"I guess that the environment we see and what those three are seeing must be vastly different. What we cannot see, and what they have been desperately resisting, must be the most concentrated Filth Alien Power!"

"The extremely dense Filth Alien Power surges from the darkness towards the Fifth Realm and then slowly infiltrates the Upper Realm at specific times."

"Cultivators of the Human Race, the more profound their cultivation, the greater the suppression they face in an environment tainted by Filth Alien Power. Especially those who have plucked a strand of fate to achieve the status of True God, they are even more constrained."

"Zhu Ji, Li Wang, Ghost Mother, the corruption by Filth Alien Power that they are suffering below the Fifth Realm, I can hardly imagine it."

"No wonder they have never lifted the state of ’Divine Dharma Aspect’ and appear so weary."

Su Wenrou finished speaking, and all the True Gods were shaken to the core.

From the history of the Demon Race to the present, there have always been many rumors about that endless expanse of darkness.

But whether it is the Demon Gods of the Demon Race or the most powerful of the Alien Tribes of the Fifth Realm, none have been able to come out after entering.

Ghost Mother, Li Wang, Zhu Ji, were actually thrown into it by that Sovereign of the Outer Realm, who knows through what means, and still deliberately left these scenes for them to see.

If a few more of us go in, just like Ghost Mother and the others, and sink into the darkness, being continuously eroded by the extremely dense Filth Alien Power.

What consequences would that bring about?

The Alien Tribes’ ascent to heaven in battle would have few True Gods to meet them, and the dominance of the Human Race in Purgatory would undoubtedly be overturned!

Even now, having lost Li Wang, Ghost Mother, and Zhu Ji, when a new wave of Filth Alien Power rises, do they stand a chance of victory?

"Does anyone have any ideas?" Pu Zhaotian asked.

Liu Fu immediately replied, "We must find a way to get them out."

"How do we rescue them?" Li Yuanli asked.

Liu Fu thought seriously and said, "Pang Jian is active on the seven continents of the Fifth Realm. His appearance has revealed the traces of the Heavenly Tribulation Pillar, providing coordinates and positions for Ghost Mother and the others."

"Now, with the seven Heavenly Tribulation Pillars appearing simultaneously, it must be related to Pang Jian."

"We need someone to go down to the Fifth Realm, to the First Continent, to find Pang Jian and tell him what has happened."

"Then, we ask Pang Jian, this new generation Realm God, if there is any way to get Zhu Ji and the others out."

"This is the only method I can think of."

Liu Fu shared his thoughts in one breath, and seeing everyone deep in contemplation, he added, "It can’t be one of us True Gods. We carry fate with us, and it would be difficult to evade the senses of those extremely strong of the Alien Tribes, especially with an otherworldly Fire God among them."

"If we descend openly, it would mean we have to start a war in lands familiar to the powerful of the Fifth Realm’s Alien Tribes before it is due."

"Without Zhu Ji, Li Wang, and Ghost Mother, if war breaks out in the land of the Fifth Realm where Filth Alien Power is dense, our chances of winning are not great."

Liu Fu let out a sigh.

Pu Zhaotian interjected, "In a land pervaded by Filth Alien Power, the might of my Unity Heaven Forbidden cannot be fully utilized."

"So, we need someone trustworthy, who can also adapt to the Fifth Realm, to subtly sink into the First Continent to find Pang Jian," Liu Fu continued.

After finishing, he looked straight at Li Yuanli.

Li Yuanli was momentarily stunned before he came to a sudden realization.

After a moment, he sighed softly and said, "I’ll arrange for my daughter to go."

The Li Family has items that can mask one’s essence, as well as others that would allow Li Yuqing to perfectly adapt to the darkness.

With various small artifacts, Li Yuqing had already explored the Fifth Realm long ago.

She is powerful and just so happens not to have become a True God, so she carries no strand of fate and is less restricted by the Fifth Realm.

She is also very familiar with Pang Jian and can completely gain his trust.

The more Liu Fu thought about it, the more he felt that no one was more suitable to infiltrate the Fifth Realm to find Pang Jian than she was.
