On it were the words “Heaven-leading River”.
“Heaven-leading River?”
Qin Chen and the others had never heard of it before.
Only Daoist Eastern Wolf frowned as he spoke to Qin Chen.
“Sir, the Heaven-leading River is a great forbidden area within the forbidden ground of the demon race. All living beings that walk on it will sink. If their primordial spirit does not escape in time, they will also sink.”
As for how Daoist Eastern Wolf had managed to cross it… It was because they had lost their physical bodies that their souls were able to swim across the river safely.
“Is it that evil?”
Qin Chen naturally did not doubt the other party’s words. After all, the life and death of Daoist Eastern Wolf was in his hands. As long as he died, the other party would die as well. Therefore, he was not worried that the other party would harm him.
What he said should be true.
Qin Chen asked everyone to stop, then walked alone to the bank of the Heaven-leading River.
There were no weeds around. God knows how long ago someone had left behind that stone tablet with the words “Heaven-leading River”. The river itself was as dark as night, and nothing in it could be seen clearly.
Daoist Eastern Wolf guessed that even a quasi-emperor-realm expert might not be able to pass the river safely.
Since the other party had made the river sound so terrifying, Qin Chen didn’t let his guard down.
If he was not careful, he might die immediately.
When he thought of this, he calmed down and began to think.
“How should we cross it?”
As long as someone tried to cross the river, their body would sink.
Following this, Qin Chen took out a spiritual boat. Its speed was comparable to that of some demons that specialized in flight.
When Qin Chen controlled the spiritual boat to head to the other side of the Heaven-leading River, it didn’t take long for the boat to sink. It was as if there was a huge force pulling the spiritual boat down.
Qin Chen immediately felt that this was a bit troublesome. Anything other than the primordial spirit would sink.
Would they be stopped here?
He didn’t dare to use his extreme emperor weapon to test it out. What if the Heaven-leading River could even drag down the magic items left behind by ancient great emperors?
If he wanted to retrieve his magic item then, he would have to give up his body.
Additionally, the space above the Heaven-leading River was extremely unstable, making it impossible to tear through the void.
Forcefully crossing the river would only cause them to fall into the pitch-black river.
Plus, who knew what was in the water?
Everyone was quite fearful as they watched the spiritual boat controlled by the Elder King sink.
To them, it was simply impossible to pass the river unless they abandoned their bodies like Daoist Eastern Wolf.
Otherwise, crossing the river would be suicide.
“Is there no other way?”
Daoist Eastern Wolf replied, “Master, there have been demon race experts who crossed the river with their bodies, but there has only been one successful case. However, the records are too old, and the detailed information has not been passed down.”
Seeing that everyone was helpless, Qin Chen felt that his joy was in vain. He had thought that Daoist Eastern Wolf would know how to get over. “Tell me everything you know about the Heaven-leading River.”
“The Heaven-leading River was said to have been formed when a quasi-emperor-realm expert who was about to break through to the Supreme realm was wiped out by a strange existence’s attack. From then on, almost no one has ever been able to cross this river with their physical bodies. The Heaven-leading River splits the demon race’s forbidden ground into two. Even the identity of the demon race expert who successfully crossed the river as recorded in history is unknown.”
“You may leave.”
Daoist Eastern Wolf respectfully retreated back into the Dark Soul Wood. He didn’t believe that Qin Chen could cross the river unless the latter didn’t want his body anymore..
