Chapter 276: Killing Intent in the Forbidden Zone

Lin Fan found this path extremely arduous, moving forward step by step, his bones creaking as if they might break.

After traveling for dozens of miles, blood began to spurt from all his pores, turning him into a blood-soaked figure.

Fortunately, he endured, and with a strand of Immortal Qi wrapped around him, his bones, at least, did not shatter.

"I think, in this era, at this age, I'm probably the only one who can withstand the pressure of this path," Lin Fan muttered to himself, slowly advancing, gradually adapting to the pressure.

"Woof, you kid are truly a monster to be able to endure this!"

The Little Dog exclaimed in wonder. It knew very well how difficult it was to walk here; if it weren't for its True Immortal Physical Body from its previous life, it would be impossible for it to remain unharmed.

Lin Fan glared, truly wanting to kick it away. What was this dog saying?

In fact, it was also very difficult for him to walk on the stone steps, golden blood oozing from the corner of his mouth, shimmering brightly, indicating he was injured.

However, he persisted, relying on the unique properties of his Physique, always standing firm, adapting to the field little by little.

Moreover, he couldn't even speed up; each time he lifted his foot, it felt as if he was being struck by countless large stars, the resistance immense.

Furthermore, the stone steps wound through the Void Realm, with no end in sight, making it unknown when they would reach the destination, silent and profound.

As they delved deeper, they also saw order interweaving along the way, like iron chains, extremely dazzling.

Lin Fan's expression solidified; that chaotic power of rules was the most terrifying. For him, in his current state, it was extremely dangerous.

"Not simple. The being who laid out this path is definitely a top-tier expert; even an ordinary Supreme would find it difficult to pass," the Little Dog said.

Lin Fan glanced sideways. Did it really need to say that? Which expert capable of establishing their own Life Forbidden Zone wasn't incredibly powerful?

What's more, this individual was acquainted with Willow God, and his cultivation in his previous life was among the best of the Immortal Kings.

"Ah… let go, you dead dog!" Lin Fan cried out. He was actually bitten by the dog again, which was quite unlucky.

"How dare you call this King a dead dog? You're asking for a beating!" The Little Dog's fangs were bared, biting Lin Fan's leg and refusing to let go.

"Clang! Clang!"

Lin Fan formed a divine seal with his hand and struck the Little Dog's back, making a deafening sound as if he were hammering iron.

"Damn it, I don't believe I can't beat you." Lin Fan swung his Chaos Magical Artifact and smashed it down fiercely.

For a while, the sounds of barking echoed in this place until it finally quieted down much later.

Two hours later, Lin Fan was indignant, looking at the dog teeth marks on his body. He was truly speechless; probably no other Cultivator had been chased and bitten by a dog like him.

Next, both the man and the dog remained silent, walking on this path, unsure when it would end.

One day, two days… perhaps half a month had passed; they couldn't tell.

Here, time shifted, space dislocated, and perception seemed to dull; everything was hard to discern.

Furthermore, this path always contained terrifying power, suppressing every living being who stepped onto it, making it impossible to speed up.

Finally, after an unknown amount of time and distance traveled, they at last saw a glimmer of hope: the path had reached its end.

The stone steps faded away, revealing a continent!

"Have we reached the Lower Realm?" the Little Dog wondered, the environment having changed drastically.

In an instant, a sense of ancientness washed over them, and the Qi of heaven and earth plummeted, far less dense than in the Upper Realm.

This was very similar to the Eight Regions Lin Fan had stayed in, where the environment was barren and unsuitable for cultivation.

"Not yet. Don't forget, this is a Life Forbidden Zone. Only after leaving this place will we truly enter the Lower Realm," Lin Fan said calmly.

"Eh, I seem to smell… the fragrance of an Elixir of Life!" The Little Dog's large eyes gleamed, its nose very keen.

At the same time, Lin Fan also smelled it, his heart stirring. A refreshing aroma drifted over, as if he was about to Ascend.

Such a strong medicinal fragrance, without a doubt, could not have come from a divine medicine, because Lin Fan had a Xian Yao (Immortal Medicine) in his hand and was very familiar with it.

"Woof, if this King eats another Xian Yao (Immortal Medicine), I might be able to recover my past cultivation!" The Little Dog barked, extremely excited.

"Swish!"

The next moment, it seemed to sprout wings, transforming into a flash of lightning, following the scent of the fragrance and rushing forward.

"This dead dog…" Lin Fan was speechless. This dog truly ran faster than anyone when it encountered something good.

However…

Lin Fan seemed to have thought of something, the corners of his mouth curving into a meaningful smile, as he advanced unhurriedly.

This continent was vast and empty, a desolate Gobi, lacking vitality, yet the fragrance of an Elixir of Life appeared, which was extremely peculiar.

That scent also constantly changed, sometimes strong, sometimes faint, very strange, carrying an abnormal Qi.

"Hmm?"

As soon as Lin Fan passed through this large sand dune, he saw a medicine field, from which the fragrance was emanating.

This was very shocking, because many old medicines were moving within it. There was no need to think; these must be divine medicines.

Moreover, there was more than one; dozens, even hundreds, were fleeing, which was incredibly alluring.

But what was most eye-catching was that an Elixir of Life was also in that medicine garden, its radiant glow illuminating the Void Realm.

"Woof, this must be the sight of an Immortal King's medicine garden! If I gather all of them, I'll be rich!"

The Little Dog drooled, then immediately rushed over, opening its large mouth, about to swallow that medicine garden.

"Boom!"

Suddenly, streaks of light shot up from the surroundings, piercing the sky like pillars supporting the heavens, a grand sight.

With a bang, the Little Dog was sent flying, and dazzling divine light illuminated that area, as if it had been ignited, brilliantly dazzling.

"Woof, who dares to ambush this King?" The Little Dog barked, getting a mouthful of sand, almost breaking its teeth.

"Dead dog, that's what you get for being so greedy!" Lin Fan laughed heartily.

But soon, as a heart-stopping sound rang out, he composed himself, his expression becoming solemn.

"Who disturbs the peace of the Forbidden Zone?"

At this moment, even the Little Dog trembled all over and quickly retreated, because this was a Forbidden Zone, a Forbidden Land for all life.

It had already existed for an epoch, independent of the world, and even Immortal Kings would not easily provoke it, showing how terrifying it was.

"Junior is passing through this place and wishes to borrow a path to the Lower Realm. Please be accommodating…" Lin Fan explained, his tone very calm.

Even though he knew the Lord of the Forbidden Zone had long since died and only his obsession remained, he still couldn't be too careless; Immortal Kings were unfathomable.

"I once erected a divine stele: those who trespass into the land of slumber—Die!"

From the depths of the Forbidden Zone, that voice replied, devoid of emotion, yet incredibly domineering and forceful.

"Heh, we are merely borrowing a path and have not offended you. For Fellow Daoist to immediately call for death and destruction, isn't that a bit unreasonable?"

The Little Dog said coldly, finding the other party's words very unpleasant.

Back then, when it followed the Wu Zhong Immortal King, there was no place it couldn't go, no one it hadn't met. Wherever it went, it was welcomed and respected.

Now, in its opinion, to kill someone just for approaching this place, the existence within the Forbidden Zone was truly too overbearing.

"Oh, a dog that has lost its Dao Heart but possesses a True Immortal Physical Body?" The Forbidden Zone's being's tone carried a slight surprise.

The next moment, his tone shifted, still firm: "Rules are rules, and no one, regardless of who they are, is allowed to change them!"
