Death... and me

Tiramisu didn’t know anything about that. Even if Tiramisu did, he wouldn’t lift a finger as long as they didn’t act outside the Danger Zone. There was no lack of people in a similar situation in this place, after all. “I believe all of you are ready, so be prepared to enter the Demising Catacombs. Remember, no one at the Transition Realm or above is allowed to enter. If you do, not only will the formation protecting this place stop your advance, I’ll get rid of you and your group myself.”

He then took out a black token and poured his Divine Energy into it. The token then began to float as it emanated black energy before it zoomed towards the entrance of the Danger Zone. However, there was no impact. Instead, the token hit the barrier as if it had hit the surface of a calm lake. Some ripples appeared on the point of contact before the token disappeared inside.

*Shua!*

Suddenly, an enormous hole appeared where the token hit before, forming a several-kilometer-long entrance into the Demising Catacombs. The place felt quite warm a second ago. However, when the Danger Zone was opened, a huge wave of Yin Energy came from inside. The temperature immediately plummeted, although no ice was created.

*Uuuggghhhhhh…*

*Wraaaaaa…*

*Vrooooo…*

Following that, many lesser ghosts began to pour outside the entrance. However, the moment they stepped outside, some kind of energy was released from the formation itself, striking their heads. In an instant, those ghosts were wiped out from existence.

The ghosts inside didn’t care, though. First of all, they gathered here because they could feel the life force of the cultivators gathering outside. Otherwise, there wouldn’t be this many. They kept coming out of the hole, trying to capture the cultivators from several different races. Unfortunately for them, every single one of them was killed without exceptions. None of them could resist the formation’s might.

Tiramisu ignored that before looking back at all the participants and used his Divine Energy to make his voice travel for many kilometers. “What the hell are you all waiting for? You only have one month to make use of this place, so go ahead alre-.”

*Swoosh!*

Suddenly, someone passed by Tiramisu’s body, flying at top speed before he could even finish his words. Of course, with his cultivation, he had no trouble seeing who it was. It was a duo. One of them was a Black and White Demon Bird, and the other was a cultivator who seemed to be from his Sacred Land. Naturally, it was Roan and Kentucky! Roan didn’t like to waste time to start with. That’s why he was the first one to act there.

Tiramisu couldn’t help but faintly smile after that, telling the others, “What about the rest of you? Are you going to let a Peak Stage Soul Transformation and an Initial Stage Saint Realm cultivator show that they have more courage than the rest of you? They just flew straight inside, you see? You guys disgust me!”

Tiramisu’s words stoked the flames on those cultivators below before they all soon charged into the formation. Those who had flying demon beasts did the same thing as Roan and flew. Others had land demon beasts and moved through the ground. Of course, the majority didn’t have demon beasts, so they just went ahead by foot.

However, it didn’t matter if one was in the air or on the ground. All Yin Ghosts could fly as they didn’t really have bodies, so both types were assaulted by them.

The good thing was that these were all lesser ghosts from the outskirts of the Demising Catacombs. None of them were as strong as the cultivators, so their groups were quickly massacred. Not too long after, the cultivators and demon beasts began to split in many different directions as they didn’t want to stay close to people they didn’t know.

Back on Roan’s side, he didn’t pay attention to any of that as he flew with Kentucky. However, he noticed something really, really strange with Tiramisu’s words a few minutes later. ‘A Peak Stage Soul Transformation and… an Initial Stage Saint flew inside?!’

Kentucky would always have equivalent cultivation to Roan’s own. This meant that Kentucky’s Peak Stage Six level was equivalent to the Peak Stage of the Soul Transformation Realm. First of all, even if Kentucky was an Initial Stage Seven Demon Beast, Tiramisu wouldn’t have said Initial Stage Saint. He would have used Initial Stage Seven for sure. That meant…

Roan then used his Divine Sense to check Kentucky’s body when suddenly, his mouth twitched in annoyance. Holding onto Kentucky’s leg, a certain Pure Yin Body owner held tightly to not fall. “It’s fucking you again!”

Sure enough, it was Liana who reacted fast enough to hold Kentucky’s leg just as he took flight. “Of course, it was me! Do you think I would let you bring this poor guy inside this place without doing anything? What if he dies because of you?! I won’t let that happen. I want him!”

Roan felt like crying already. ‘Kentucky, why the hell are you not shaking her off? You should know that she won’t suffer even a scratch with her cultivation even if she falls from this altitude, right? First of all, what if she died because of it? Everyone here is an enemy, idiot! Get rid of her already!’

Kentucky sighed with an emotional expression after hearing that, telling Roan in response, ‘I can’t betray my fan’s feelings, sorry.’

Eventually, Roan snapped.

*Bang!*

*Ouch!*

He smacked Kentucky’s head. Kentucky did have a huge defense capability, but Roan still knew how to make it hurt. “Why did you hit me?!”

“Are you even asking? We didn’t come here for you to entertain the female cultivators!”

“Still, I could have just dropped her sometime later when we reached a safer place!”

“Safer place?! We shouldn’t be helping her to start with!”

“But she loves me!”

“And why should I care?!”

This time… they didn’t use Divine Sense to talk, so Liana heard every single complaint from Kentucky. “It…it can talk?!”

Only then did Roan and Kentucky realize that they fucked up.
