I become a god in another world

Chapter 560 The Second Level of Hell
Chapter 560
Before Xie Jingsheng took action, he considered that he could not open the door - just like he could not push open the door of Chongde Hall before entering.

He never expected that the previously impenetrable door would crack under his palm.

This made Xie Jingsheng feel uneasy as if he had gotten into trouble.

"I--"

Before he could say anything, he saw cracks beginning to appear where the door had been shattered.

The lines began to spread in all directions, making a 'cracking' sound, and in the blink of an eye, the entire door had cracked, as if it would be destroyed at any time.

When they thought of the ghost flames sweeping across the city outside the Ghost Gate, everyone's face changed drastically.

"It's over."

Fan Wujiu cried out in a low voice:
"It looks like I'm going to die here."

His voice was very soft, but even with such a small volume, the ghost gate seemed to be unable to bear it anymore and shattered with a "boom".

Countless debris flew into the air, hitting everyone's faces and bodies.

Everyone thought that the explosion of the gate would cause great damage, and that people would be injured if hit by the debris, so they instinctively turned their heads to avoid it, and thought they would face raging fire - but they didn't expect that the debris from the gate would turn into powder after hitting people, and they didn't feel any pain at all.

As the door shattered, the surrounding area began to collapse, and the door frame and beams turned into flying powder.

The air was filled with dust and smoke, and everyone was waiting for the arrival of the fire.

"Ahem... ahem..."

‘Ahem——’

Everyone coughed due to the choking, but the expected ghost flame did not come.

Zhao Fusheng suppressed the dryness in her throat and waved her hands in front of her face, fanning away the smoke so that she could see the scene outside the door clearly.

A picture slowly unfolded before her - beyond the smoke, there was no raging flame. What appeared in front of everyone was a very wide and long staircase that went straight down.

Below the long staircase is a square paved with white marble, with the residences of various palace departments on both sides.

There is a handrail on each side of the stairs, and two huge pillars support the ground and the roof above, which looks very familiar.

"..."

Xie Jingsheng was stunned:

"The main gate of Chongde Hall?"

The crowd was driven by the ghost light and entered the gate of Chongde Hall.

After entering the palace, the door was damaged again. It shouldn't be surprising to see the long stairs and square outside the door.

But the angle is wrong.

Zhao Fusheng turned her head and looked back, only to see the tightly closed door of Chongde Hall appear behind her.

She looked up at the sky, where the blank plaque with some gold paint remaining on it was still hanging.

"We are back to the gate of Chongde Hall." Zhao Fusheng sighed.

Everyone turned their heads and looked back, and sure enough, they saw the entrance to the palace appear beside them.

"It looks like we have entered a new ghost realm."

Wu Shaochun pursed his lips and frowned.

"Master Feng, you are from the Imperial Capital and are familiar with the Central Palace City. Do you know what is going on in this situation?"

Meng Po felt a little uneasy from the strange chain of doors that appeared one after another. She asked Feng Du with a questioning look in her eyes.

As a half-ghost, she felt a subtle pressure at this moment - as if somewhere in this city, there was a terrifying existence silently spying on everyone, marking everyone, and trying to keep everyone in this endless ghost realm.

"There was a fire in the city for no reason before—"

As soon as Fan Bisi opened his mouth, Wu Shaochun responded:

“It’s not a fake fire.”

He said, stretching out his arms.

I saw that a small piece of skin on Wu Shaochun's arm was burned, with several peanut-sized blisters on it, and the surrounding skin felt like a red-hot iron.

Fortunately, he was controlling a ghost, and the one he controlled was a stove ghost. His tolerance to fire was much greater than that of others, and he showed no sign of pain at this time.

"I was just walking at the end, and a small cluster of flames flew over and I blocked it."

Wu Shaochun's words made everyone feel particularly heavy.

"Special ghost area."

Zhao Fusheng pondered for a moment and analyzed:

"We don't know when we entered the ghost realm, but perhaps we entered a special ghost realm when we entered the gate of Chongde Hall."

"Sir, I think this ghost domain is not simple." Wu Shaochun has been handling cases for a while and has some experience. He tried to analyze it:
"First, a fire broke out in front of the temple gate, and then it was suppressed by the door god." At the beginning, the door god seemed to have suppressed the gate of Chongde Temple, "but then the fire came from all directions."

Fan Bisi also said:
"Then we pushed the door open and entered, and the place we entered was still in front of the gate of Chongde Hall."

"It's the same place, but the fire is gone. Obviously this place is different." Liu Yizhen frowned.

Zhao Fusheng's heart moved:
"Master Feng, you mentioned the Imperial Prison before—"

A strange and bizarre thought flooded into her mind. She felt a little uneasy and even wondered if the Imperial Prison mentioned in Fengdu was the 'hell' referred to in the Investiture of the Gods?
If the two are the same existence, then what exactly is the Investiture of the Gods?
Feng Du was extremely sleepy. When he heard Zhao Fusheng's question, he struggled to open his eyelids which weighed more than a thousand pounds:

"Yes, it could be the Imperial Prison."

"It is rumored that the Imperial Prison has a total of - Hu - Er -"

Feng Du was halfway through his words when he started snoring again.

"..."

Everyone looked at each other in silence.

Fan Wujiu had a violent temper. He was afraid of ghosts but not people. In addition, Wan'an County had always been backed by Zhao Fusheng, and his special ghost-controlling power had made him braver. Feng Du had been very gentle since they met. For all these reasons, when Fan Wujiu saw Feng Du falling asleep while talking, he could not help but get angry. With his courage emboldened, he stretched out his hand and pushed Feng Du:

"Why did you fall asleep again—"

"Xiao Fan, you——"

When Xie Jingsheng saw his rash behavior, a drop of cold sweat broke out on his forehead. He was about to stop him, but he saw that Fan Bish's outstretched hand pushed empty air.

Feng Du's sleeping body with his head down was pushed by him, and it was like the moon in the water that was dispersed by being stirred.

This sudden change caught everyone off guard.

I don't know when it started to get dark.

“Wuwuwu——”

A cold wind began to blow in the city. It grew stronger and stronger, making everyone's clothes flutter and making them almost unable to stand.

"Where did Fengdu go?"

Fan Bisi asked in horror:
"Could he have set up a trap here, lured us in, and trapped us?"

Feng Du was in charge of a ghost town, and everyone seemed to be trapped in a ghost town at this time.

As soon as Fan Bisi finished speaking, everyone looked at Xie Jingsheng with unfriendly expressions on their faces.

He and Fengdu are both visitors from the Imperial Capital!

"No, no, don't look at me—"

Xie Jingsheng quickly shook his head:
"I know nothing, and Lord Fengdu's ghost realm is not like this—"

Liu Yizhen asked:
"So what is his ghost realm like?"

"..."

Xie Jingsheng was speechless, and finally sighed helplessly:
"I don't know either. Once you go to Lord Fengdu's ghost realm, you can't return. Ghosts can go there, but living people can't. Everyone who has seen it is dead." Fan Bisi looked unfriendly:
"Then how do you know this isn't his ghostland?"

Xie Jingsheng said:

"Even if you haven't eaten pork, you've seen pigs run. And you've seen his ghost domain in Longyang County. The ghost domain is surrounded by tall black walls. Where are the ghost walls here?"

He added:
"What's more, he is the general of the Demon Suppression Division and is in charge of the affairs of the Demon Suppression Division. You are members of the Demon Suppression Division. Why would he lure you to death?"

Fan Wujiu was suspicious and asked, "Who knows? If you control ghosts for a long time, your psychology will always be abnormal."

Xie Jingsheng frowned and said:
"I am a golden general of the Demon Suppression Division after all. I have been explaining and tolerant for the sake of Lord Zhao. You—"

Seeing that everyone was about to quarrel, Zhao Fusheng shouted:
"Okay, stop arguing!"

The case of the three-eyed ghost in Shangyang County was solved, which demonstrated her strength and made her very prestigious.

As soon as she opened her mouth, everyone shut up.

"No matter where Feng Du went, I suspect the gate of Chongde Hall might belong to the one he mentioned," Zhao Fusheng hesitated.
"Imperial Prison."

"Sir, the Imperial Prison that Lord Fengdu mentioned is not the Imperial Prison that you control?"

Wu Shaochun asked.

"It is very likely that the laws are similar."

Zhao Fusheng said vaguely:
"My hell has many layers, which is consistent with our entry into Chongde Hall."

"Assuming that our first time before entering Chongde Hall was the first level of the ghost realm, then we can be sure that the first level of hell is burning; after that, when we pushed the door open, we might have entered the second level."

As soon as Zhao Fusheng finished speaking, Wu Shaochun was horrified:

"If you say so, doesn't that mean there are problems in every level of hell?"

"Probably."

Zhao Fusheng nodded.

Chen Duozi also panicked and asked:
"So how many levels of hell are there in total?"

"It's still unclear at the moment, so we can only take one step at a time and see what happens."

Zhao Fusheng replied.

The current situation is like a fog. No one knows about Fengdu's disappearance, the situation in Zhongdu City, and where the headless ghost has gone.

But under such circumstances, Zhao Fusheng remained calm, which undoubtedly made everyone feel reassured.

"That's right. There's no point in thinking too much. The adults are here, so I'll follow them."

Wu Shaochun was the first to express his opinion, and the others nodded.

Xie Jingsheng had no choice but to say:
"I want to go with you, too."

After that, he asked:
"So what should we do now? Should we just wait here like an idiot?"

As soon as he finished speaking, he suddenly took a breath of cold air, "hiss", "It seems to have cooled down."

He put his hands around his arms and rubbed them up and down.

Zhao Fusheng gave him a strange look:
"After controlling ghosts, will you still be afraid of the cold? I'm afraid it's because of this layer of hell."

As soon as she finished speaking, everyone realized that something was wrong.

The cold wind blew with a howling sound, and it was even getting faster and faster.

Chen Duozi turned his head and looked in the direction of Chongde Hall, and suddenly seemed to discover something:
"Sir, look quickly."

Zhao Fusheng looked in the direction of her finger and saw that streams of water began to flow out from the gap in the door.

The spring water was cold and silent, but while everyone was talking, the water flowed across the ground and submerged everyone's feet.

The cold air penetrated from the soles of their feet, as if it could penetrate straight to the top of their heads.

"First comes the fire, then the water."

After Zhao Fusheng finished speaking, Fan Wujiu wanted to lift one leg:

"The water is pouring out from the crack in the door, and I think the top is leaking too," he said, showing his intelligence. "Sir, there may be a lot of water inside the door. Should we think of a way to leave here first?"

"Where to?"

Zhao Fusheng asked back.

"Let's go to the city to take shelter first." As soon as Fan Wujiu finished speaking, Fan Bisi shook his head:
"It's unavoidable. This is a ghost zone. Once something happens, the whole city will be involved."

The gate may contain a torrent of water powerful enough to destroy a city.

When Fan Wujiu heard this, he was a little panicked and instinctively looked at Zhao Fusheng.

Zhao Fusheng said:

"The gate of death is the gate of life," she looked at the gate where water was constantly flowing. In the moment when everyone was talking, the water pouring out from the crack of the gate was much faster than before:
"I feel like this ghost realm is trying to force us into a deeper hell."

Half of the emperor's ghost body is buried in hell. If everyone cannot pass through hell, they may be trapped in the ghost realm and gradually lost.

If they could break through the gates of hell and enter the depths of hell, they might have to face terrifying ghosts that were about to revive.

But we have already entered the ghost realm and there is no way to escape, so we can only move forward.

"Let's push the door open and enter the third level of hell."

After Zhao Fusheng finished speaking, he waded forward through the water, trying to get closer to the gate.

But in this moment, more and more water flowed out of the door, and it had already washed up to everyone's calves.

The water flow began to become turbulent, and the gap in the temple door had been corroded by this strange water flow, revealing a broken opening for more torrents to leak out.

Zhao Fusheng had just taken two steps forward when he heard a loud clang. After a moment, the palace door was torn apart by the flood.

In an instant, like a floodgate bursting, a huge torrent gushed out from the door, carrying a tremendous force, and rushed towards everyone at lightning speed.

This force is overwhelming, and the waves are over ten feet high. Once swept away by this torrent, everyone is likely to become rootless duckweed and be swallowed by the water.

At this critical moment of life and death, it was too late for Zhao Fusheng to print the door god.

The force of fear pushed her, making it impossible for her to stand still.

In the critical moment, she summoned the List of Gods, took out the Ghost and God Order, and summoned the Sun God Zhu Guangling!
When the Sun God appears, the laws will be activated immediately.

Be it Zhao Fusheng, the people of Wan'an County, or even Xie Jingsheng, the moment they stepped into Shangyang County, they were marked by Zhu Guangling, who was on the verge of reviving as a ghost.

Pairs of ghostly footprints emerged from under the water, encircling the feet of every person in front of the temple gate.

This footprint, which almost became a life-threatening law for everyone, now became the straw that saved everyone's life.

‘Rumble—’

The torrent broke through the remaining palace gate, swept everyone away, and instantly swallowed Zhao Fusheng and others into the water.

This terrifying force was enough to drag people into the dark abyss under the water, but Zhu Guangling's footprints nailed everyone to the spot.

……

The torrent impact of the second level of ghost realm is huge and powerful only once, the same as the fire of the first level of ghost realm.

But under the restraint of Zhu Guangling's footprints, the crowd was not dispersed.

After a moment of suffocation and chill, the water disappeared and the main hall without a gate was opened to everyone.

It was pitch black inside, as if there was no abyss visible, waiting for everyone to enter.

Zhao Fusheng opened his eyes and found that there was no water flowing on the ground in front of the hall, but the steps, stone pillars and other objects were melting and turning into smoke and dust, floating in the air.

"let's go."

It is not advisable to stay here for long. As soon as she finished speaking, the others reacted and walked through the second gate of hell with her.
