I become a god in another world

Chapter 559: Opening the Ghost Gate
Chapter 559

As soon as they exited the Ghost Gate, everyone realized that they were no longer ordinary people. The power of evil spirits surged on their bodies. Amidst the murderous aura, their bodies gradually grew larger, shortening the distance between them and the top door of Chongde Hall.

After experiencing the previous life and death incidents, everyone had shadows in their hearts, and when they looked at the ghost gate again, fear appeared in their eyes.

"What was going on with the ghost flame inside the door just now? Have we exited the ghost gate?" Fan Bisi was still frightened and asked two questions in succession.

Xie Jingsheng rubbed his arms in fear, turned around and looked around - in front of him was the gate of Chongde Exhibition, and above the gate was still the colorful roof made up of various agate fragments.

A piece of plaque was hung horizontally under the roof. The plaque looked clearer now than before. The plaque was completely black, with only a few mottled marks of gold paint remaining on it. It was no longer possible to tell what words had been written on the marks.

Fan Bisi said in a mysterious way:

"I think this gold color is somewhat familiar—"

His words startled Xie Jingsheng, and even Feng Du turned his head to look at him.

Liu Yizhen was also looking at the gold lacquer on his head. Fan Bisi's words reached his ears, and when he looked at the remaining gold lacquer marks again, he felt something was wrong.

The marks seemed to come alive in his eyes, and the incomplete characters began to swim and move like fish in a black plaque.

Then something weird happened.

The little golden fish turned its head to look at him - this feeling was extremely mysterious.

If Liu Yizhen told others at this moment that these characters were spirits and were "looking" at him, everyone who heard it would probably laugh out loud, but that was how he felt in his heart.

Then the little goldfishes jumped up with their tails and flew out of the dark plaque, like a carp leaping over the dragon gate, and leaped towards the direction where Liu Yizhen was.

As he watched, the golden light got closer and closer until it reached his eyes.

As soon as Liu Yizhen saw these cold and gloomy auras, he shuddered and immediately regained his senses:

"I just—"

He was about to speak hastily about his strange encounter, but he saw Fan Bisi still staring at the plaque and said:
"I think I've seen this color somewhere before—"

When Liu Yizhen heard this, his expression changed slightly.

It was as if everything he had previously 'seen', sensed, and encountered was just an illusion.

What he thought was a long trance actually lasted only a moment, and Fan Bi Si hadn't even finished a sentence.

"What happened?"

Zhao Fusheng asked vigilantly.

Liu Yizhen hesitated for a moment, then looked at the plaque on the top of Chongde Hall, his expression became solemn, and he said:

“When Dafan mentioned the color, I also felt something was wrong.”

He had been dealing with ghosts since he was a child, and he knew that anything strange must not be concealed, for fear that hiding it would eventually turn into a disaster, harming not only others but also himself.

"When I looked at the plaque, I felt that the remaining gold seals seemed to come alive and turned into 'fish', which eventually jumped out and pounced on my body."

Liu Yizhen's words made everyone very uneasy. Zhao Fusheng looked at him and asked:

"Where did it pounce on you?"

"my eyes."

Liu Yizhen pointed at himself.

"Let me take a look." Zhao Fusheng waved to him. Liu Yizhen squatted down, leaned forward, and opened his eyes wide for Zhao Fusheng to see.

Zhao Fusheng looked at him intently. Through the dim firelight in Chongyang Palace, she could clearly see Liu Yizhen's eyes.

After she controlled the ghost, she had extraordinary eyesight and saw that Liu Yizhen's pupils were so black that they were almost blue, making his pupils look particularly deep.

He stared at Zhao Fusheng's eyes, his pupils slowly contracting under the faint light. Under his smooth eyeballs, his dark blue eyeballs were like ripples in the sea. Almost within a few breaths, under the dark lines, several points of golden light swayed, turning into flexible shadows, drilling and swaying under his eyeballs.

Zhao Fusheng immediately understood what Liu Yizhen had said before: the goldfish remaining on the plaque turned into a 'fish', jumped out and pounced on his body.

The golden shadow really turned into a small fish and flew into Liu Yizhen's eyes.

Just as she was wondering, she saw the little fish swimming even more happily, wagging its tail and leaping out from Liu Yizhen's eyes, trying to pounce into Zhao Fusheng's eyes.

The moment the golden light touched her body, the blood marks left over from Zhao Fusheng's third eye suddenly surged with a large amount of evil energy.

Amidst the blood, a blurry ghost eye opened and glared coldly at the goldfish.

All the small fish that rushed out seemed to have hit an indestructible wall. The moment they hit it, they were shattered into pieces and immediately turned into black gas and dissipated.

Zhao Fusheng's forehead was hit by this force and his eyes went dark.

At this moment, countless messy images flashed through her mind like a kaleidoscope, and she "saw" Liu Yizhen.

Before the blazing flames, Liu Yizhen stood in the firelight with a resolute expression, and his body quickly transformed into a statue made of pure gold.

……

In a moment, all the images disappeared.

Zhao Fusheng shook her head. It seemed as if everything that happened before was just a strange dream. It was also as if she was under the influence of the golden word "little fish" and had an illusion.

After waking up from the dream, she still maintained the posture of staring at Liu Yizhen's eyes. Liu Yizhen stared at her with wide eyes.

The confusion in her eyes at this moment must have been seen by Liu Yizhen.

He asked calmly:
"What do you see?"

"The little golden fish you mentioned."

Zhao Fusheng said expressionlessly, and slowly stood up:

"You have bags under your eyes and dark circles. I can tell you haven't slept well in the past few days."

"..."

Liu Yizhen was a little horrified a moment ago, fearing that she would also be marked by the golden fish - after all, in such an era, strange phenomena were not a good thing, and most of them were supernatural phenomena related to evil spirits.

Hearing that she knew how to joke, his heart couldn't help but relax, and he blinked his sore eyes.

He didn't know if it was a psychological illusion, but he always felt that after being looked at by Zhao Fusheng like this, his eyes relaxed a little, as if the pressure was suddenly relieved.

"After this case is over, I'm going to sleep for three days and three nights."

Liu Yizhen muttered.

The conversation between the two made the others feel relieved. Fan Bisi said:
"Sir, it's still the main entrance of Chongde Hall, with long corridors on both sides, stone steps below, and a square below the stone steps, exactly the same as before."

Wu Shaochun proposed:
"Should we first look at the marks left behind by Man Zhou?"

It is hard to tell what is true and what is false in the ghost realm. The evil spirit of evil ghosts can interfere with people's cognition, so it is best to confirm repeatedly.

"Together we will."

Zhao Fusheng nodded. She glanced at the gate of Chongde Hall. The gate gods were guarding the gate, so nothing would happen for the time being.

"Let's walk faster and come back quickly."

Everyone nodded and strode quickly in the direction they came from.

This time everyone went back quickly, and soon they returned to the previous red pillar. A distinctive carved mark of a round square hole appeared in front of everyone.

After experiencing the bizarre and terrifying gate of hell, everyone breathed a sigh of relief when they saw the carved mark again.

Xie Jingsheng also smiled:

"The marks are still there. It looks like it was just a false alarm."

Feng Du crossed his arms, shrugged his shoulders, half-opened his eyes, and smiled:
"The body is gone."

Everyone was horrified when they first saw the mark, and were so surprised that they had overlooked such a big flaw. It was only when Feng Du reminded them that everyone woke up.

Before Zhao Fusheng could say anything, a wailing sound suddenly came from afar. This shrill scream broke the silence of the night sky, frightening Fan Wujiu so much that he immediately hid behind Fan Bisi.

"who is it?"

Xie Jingsheng shouted sternly.

Naturally, no one in the distance answered his question, so Zhao Fusheng said:

"We came all the way in from outside the city, and we didn't see any survivors in the inner city—"

Even if there were people who were lucky enough to survive the ghost disaster, they would have hidden themselves by now, not daring to reveal their location easily in such a situation.

As soon as she finished speaking, a red glow suddenly appeared in the distant sky.

There was something very wrong with this glow, as if the sun was rising and a ball of fire was burning on the horizon.

Zhao Fusheng took a closer look and was immediately shocked:
"Fire!"

"Fire?"

Before Chen Duozi could react, the fire cloud in the sky quickly spread out and illuminated the imperial capital.

Everyone was in Chongde Hall, the highest point in the Imperial Capital, and could see the entire Imperial Capital.

I saw houses densely packed under the red clouds, fire burning half of the sky, and the densely packed houses underneath looked like wriggling insects.

"It's not a cloud, it's fire."

Zhao Fusheng said.

Flames swept across the sky, quickly enveloping the outer perimeter of the Imperial Capital City.

In an instant, the entire imperial capital was like a huge burning fireball, and the flames began to quickly roll towards where everyone was living at lightning speed, like a raging fire wave, trying to swallow up everyone and the Chongde Hall.

The heat wave arrived first.

The heat actually burned everyone's skin and caused pain, unlike the evil ghost fire that gave people a chilly feeling.

“It’s real fire!”

Liu Yizhen let out a low cry.

Zhao Fusheng couldn't help but think of the time when he looked into his eyes and saw him standing in the fire and turning into a gold statue.

She was vaguely uneasy.

Fan Bisi was distracted and looked at her involuntarily:

"Sir, what should we do now?"

"What are you afraid of? We still have a way out. Let's go through the Ghost Gate!"

As soon as she finished speaking, everyone immediately ran quickly towards the gate of Chongde Hall.

The waves of fire were getting closer and closer, but fortunately, everyone was not far from the gate of Chongde Hall, and in this critical moment, they all burst out with powerful strength, and returned to the Ghost Gate in a moment.

The group had been afraid that there might be a trap inside the door and had not dared to go in. Now, seeing the fire wave approaching, there was no way to avoid it.

Under the heat wave, everyone's hair was burned and curled.

At Chongde Gate, the two door gods and ghosts still occupied a door each, standing there motionless!

The fire clouds began to gather towards the center from all directions, but when they were about to burn to the top of Chongde Hall, a red light suddenly emerged from the direction of the door god.

The two ghosts walked out of the door with ashen faces and stiff expressions. Then the two ghosts sacrificed the ghost door board, which flew into the sky and rapidly grew larger, forming a sky-covering cloth that covered everyone's heads.

The evil spirit quietly descended and transformed into a cool breath, sheltering everyone.

This ghostly aura that should have made everyone feel terrified, now turned into a life-saving shade under the raging flames.

Everyone was delighted.

But at this moment, Meng Po suddenly reminded:
"My Lord, look—"

She pointed her hand toward the sky, and suddenly several spots on the door god's ghost gate board began to turn red - as if a heat wave from the other end of the ghost gate board was about to burn through such a dangerous weapon.

Affected by the heat wave, the evil creature melted and turned into a dripping stream of blood, flowing down.

But before the blood hit the ground, it was evaporated by the heat wave and turned into pink mist.

"This head-on confrontation is not the solution."

Zhao Fusheng shook his head:
"I don't know what the situation is in Chongde Hall, but obviously if we don't want to fight here, we have no choice but to go inside."

Her eyes flashed and she turned to look towards the gate of Chongde Hall: Nothing ventured, nothing gained!

"Let's go in!"

As soon as the words fell, Feng Du chuckled:
"It should have been so long ago."

He reached out and pushed the door, but it didn't budge.

Feng Du was stunned for a moment.

Although he looks old, he is a ghost rider. Ghost riders are very powerful. Not to mention a palace door, he can even push a city gate with ease.

Feng didn't believe it and reached out and pushed hard.

Xie Jingsheng became anxious when he saw this:

"Lord Fengdu, what's wrong with you——"

He also tried to push the door, but it seemed as if it was welded at the seams and no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't push it open.

The Fan brothers, Meng Po and others rushed forward to help. Liu Yizhen also wanted to step forward, but Zhao Fusheng shouted:
"Yizhen, don't go!"

Her sudden rebuke stunned everyone.

The hole in the ghost gate board was getting bigger and bigger, and through the hole, one could vaguely see rolling red clouds in the sky.

At this critical moment, the door of Chongde Hall could not be opened. Xie Jingsheng said anxiously:

"Fusheng, everyone is strong when they work together. Yizhen is very strong. He usually carries a ghost coffin around. Now let's push open the door together and hide inside."

"That's not how you push the door."

Zhao Fusheng sighed, took out the Ghost Seal, slammed the door, and shouted:

"The door god will return immediately!"

The moment the seal of ghosts and gods is imprinted on the door panel, the ghosts and gods that have left the door panel will immediately return to their places.

The heat wave flowed down from mid-air, and when it was about to engulf everyone, Zhao Fusheng pushed the door hard. The door of Chongde Hall, which Xie Jingsheng, Feng Du and others had been unable to open no matter what, was now opened by her light push under the blessing of the door god's law.

Before the crowd could see the scene in front of them, the moment the door opened, they all crowded in one after another.

Flames came down from the sky but were blocked from the outside by the door.

Zhao Fusheng reached out and slammed the door shut, and the flames and heat waves were instantly blocked out.

She quickly called the gods back to their positions, and the door gods returned to the List of Gods. Xie Jingsheng and others were unaware of all this.

At the moment when ghosts and gods returned to their places, the gate of Chongde Hall was not burned through by the sudden heat wave, but everything was annihilated.

It was quiet all around, and the only sound that could be heard was the faint gasps of those who had survived the disaster.

Liu Yizhen looked back at Zhao Fusheng staring at the gate of Chongde Hall and couldn't help asking her:
"what happened?"

Zhao Fusheng reached out to pull the door, but she pulled it twice, and it didn't move at all.

When everyone saw her actions, they immediately understood what she meant.

Xie Jingsheng swung out his hand, grabbed the palace door with one hand, and pulled it hard - "clang", the door frame shattered.
