Chapter 1438

Comprehending the Law of Death

The other side of the bridge was a scene full of vitality. There were all kinds of living beings there, a stark contrast to Zhuowen's side.

Zhuowen's side was filled with a dense aura of death. It was pitch-black and there were no signs of life.

It was clear that the two sides of the bridge represented life and death. They represented two different concepts of life and death.

"Life, you can coexist with all living things and obtain vitality. Death, you will become a fallen undead, accompanied by loneliness and death."

"Life, you can obtain everything. Death, you may lose everything. Cross the other shore and obtain life. You will be reborn. Or you may continue to fall in this kingdom of death."

The majestic voice reverberated in this space. It was so loud that even the apathetic could hear it. It echoed in Zhuowen's ears.

"Life or death!"

Zhuowen looked at the bones in his hands. His eyes were filled with the desire to live. It was an instinctive pursuit. He was made of flesh and blood. He feared death and longed for life.

"Life!"

Zhuowen stepped forward and walked towards the other side of the bridge. His footsteps became faster and faster. When he reached the center of the bridge, flesh and blood began to grow on his feet.

Then, from his feet to his thighs, the flesh and blood began to fill out. Then, from his abdomen to his chest, when it reached his head, Zhuowen's pupils shrank.

"My purpose here is to comprehend the Law of Death, not to obtain life …"

Zhuowen murmured. Then, he retracted his head and his right foot. He returned to the other side of death.

The flesh and blood that had grown out transformed into bones under the pervasive aura of death.

"Death …"

Zhuowen's eyes were blurred. He sat on the other side of death and sensed the dense aura of death around him.

Time gradually passed, minute by minute. Zhuowen sometimes sat, sometimes stood, sometimes ran, sometimes remained silent.

One year, ten years, twenty years …

Time passed extremely quickly. However, in this space of death, time was meaningless to Zhuowen. He had no idea how much time had passed.

"True death should be returning to one's essence and returning to one's original state. Or perhaps, nothing exists anymore."

All of a sudden, Zhuowen's eyes shone brightly. Shortly after, the entire Kingdom of Death started to boil as dense death energy started to spread out.

"The Bridge of Life and Death doesn't need to exist. Here, death reigns supreme!"

Zhuowen suddenly stood up and took a step forward, arriving at the center of the Bridge of Life and Death. Immediately, the death energy on the other side began to surge and rush towards the Bridge of Life.

On the other side of the Bridge of Life and Death, countless creatures began to tremble in fear.

In the face of death, all living beings had a deep sense of reverence. It could be said that all living beings were afraid of death, even the high and mighty Saints were the same.

"It wasn't death that chose me, but I chose death. I want to be above death."

Zhuowen's eyes revealed a look of enlightenment. Then, the billowing death energy behind him rushed out like countless tentacles and instantly shrouded the Bridge of Life and Death.

On the other side of the Bridge of Life and Death, the billowing death energy also spread. The countless creatures there all had ashen faces. Under the death energy, they didn't last long before they completely died.

"Death is the essence of everything!"

Zhuowen murmured in a low voice. In this space of death, he walked slowly and leisurely. Countless death energy lingered around him, making him look like the Grim Reaper of Hell.

…

At the Burial Ground, at the peak of the Bone Mountain, Zhuowen was still holding the Tombstone of Death with his right hand. He was motionless like a statue.

Lawrence, in his golden skeleton form, sat cross-legged not far from the Tombstone of Death, quietly looking at Zhuowen.

Not only him, but the other dead souls around also looked up and stared at the young man. Whether they could escape or not depended on whether this young man could comprehend the Law of Death.

"It's been fifty years. I wonder what Zhuowen has experienced in the Tombstone of Death?" Lawrence frowned.

"I hope this young man can comprehend the Law of Death!"

Lhos's soul shrank into Zhuowen's lapel, looking a little gloomy. Ever since Lawrence told him that the people of the Upper Realm couldn't comprehend the Law, he had been in this state.

This time, he followed Zhuowen into the Forbidden Area with the main purpose of comprehending the Law. Now that his wish was shattered, he was naturally extremely disappointed.

Boom!

Suddenly, under the gaze of everyone, the Tombstone of Death on the peak of the mountain began to tremble violently. A strong death energy spewed out and rushed into the sky.

Within the death aura, there was an extremely powerful Law Energy. This Law was the Law of Death.

Plop!

Plop!

The moment the death energy rushed into the sky, countless dead souls at the foot of the Bone Mountain knelt on the ground, their eyes full of fear.

The Law of Death was an existence that they dared not defy. Although it was the former that caused them to become like this, their fear was greater than their anger.

After the death energy rushed into the sky, it fell from the sky and poured into Zhuowen's Tianling acupoint. Waves of death energy surrounded Zhuowen, causing Zhuowen's figure to be faintly discernible.

"The Law of Death has infused into his body. Zhuowen has succeeded!"

Lawrence stood up abruptly, his eyes full of surprise. He was so excited that his whole body was trembling.

Finally, after a hundred years of loneliness in the Burial Ground, he finally had a chance to leave this place.

Zhuowen slowly opened his eyes. With a bang, the death energy around him collapsed and was annihilated, revealing his slender figure.

Zhuowen clenched his hands. His eyes were faintly gray. In the depths of his pupils, the Mark of Death was surging and circulating continuously.

At this moment, the death energy that permeated Zhuowen's body shocked even Lawrence.

"Half-saint!

The power of the Law of Death has raised my cultivation to the Half-saint Realm in one fell swoop. I'm not far from becoming a Saint, "Zhuowen muttered to himself excitedly.

"King!"

All the undead lowered their heads and respectfully knelt before Zhuowen.

Zhuowen had comprehended the Law of Death and could already dictate the fate of these undead. None of the undead dared to disrespect him.

At the same time, they all had a trace of expectation. They hoped that Zhuowen could free them from this undead body and return to reincarnation.

"King!

Pity your people. They have guarded the Law of Death for countless years. They have been lonely for too long. I only hope that you can free them and let them truly die, "Lawrence also knelt on the ground and said sincerely.

"I will do what I promised you."

Zhuowen nodded and immediately clenched his right hand. Countless amounts of death energy swept out and formed a huge skeleton shadow behind him.

The skeleton shadow floated in the sky and looked down at the countless undead in the Burial Ground. The pressure of a superior being made many undead breathless.

"Do you really want to free yourselves and end the lives of the undead?" Zhuowen asked indifferently.

"King!

We don't want to live in this state of being neither human nor ghost. We want to truly die, "the undead knelt on the ground and said sincerely.

Zhuo Wen didn't say anything else. He pressed down with his right hand, and the huge skeleton phantom behind him suddenly howled. A strange suction force swept out, and the countless undead in the burial ground all rushed out with a black brilliance and poured into the skeleton phantom.

Without the black brilliance, the countless undead skeletons turned into dust and disappeared in the wind.

"Lawrence, what about you?"

Zhuowen suddenly turned his head and stared at the golden skeleton not far away.

"King, can you take me out to have a look?

I haven't been back to the Eighteenth Mountain for a long time. I want to see the scenery of the Eighteenth Mountain again. This is my last wish. "Lawrence smiled bitterly.

"Follow me. I'll take you out to the Eighteenth Mountain." Zhuowen nodded.

"Thank you, King!" Lawrence bowed.

"Let's go!

It's time to leave here. "

Zhuowen suddenly narrowed his eyes and looked at the sky of the Burial Ground, where a beam of light appeared.

He had comprehended the power of laws of the two Forbidden Areas, and the task of the Upper Realm had been completely completed. He was now qualified to refine the Azure Dragon Palace.

However, Zhuowen knew that the Upper Realm was much larger than the Pang Great World, and there were many secrets he had not explored.

Whether it was the remaining four Forbidden Areas of the Six Forbidden Areas or the mysterious First Mountain God, he had never explored them.

However, Zhuowen still had a lot of time to continue exploring. As long as he refined the Azure Dragon Palace, he could freely enter and exit the Three Heavens and Earth. The next time he entered the Upper Realm, he could try to break through the remaining four Forbidden Areas.

"Perhaps the remaining four Forbidden Areas are more difficult. If I don't have enough strength, I'm afraid the chances of dying are very high. It's better to be cautious."

Zhuowen muttered in a low voice. Suddenly, a beam of light enveloped him, and Zhuowen pulled Lawrence. Suddenly, the two disappeared from the Burial Ground.

On the shore of the Nineteenth Mountain, a white beam of light appeared, and Zhuowen and Lawrence's figures gradually appeared.

"We're out!" Zhuowen said with a sigh of relief.

The Forbidden Areas were indeed very dangerous. Zhuowen had been tense inside. Now that he was out, he was slightly relieved.

"Zhuowen!"

Suddenly, a voice was heard. Zhuowen turned his head and saw Long Xiaotian walking slowly toward him with excitement in his eyes.

"You really entered the Second Forbidden Area and successfully comprehended the Law of the Second Forbidden Area?" Long Xiaotian grinned.

However, his attention soon fell on the golden skeleton beside Zhuowen. He said, "This is …"

"It's a long story. Let's go back to the Eighteenth Mountain first and talk on the way."

Zhuowen shook his head. Long Xiaotian had no objection, and the group left the Nineteenth Mountain.

Along the way, Zhuowen also told Long Xiaotian everything that happened in the Second Forbidden Area. The latter was quite amazed.
