534 Chapter 534: Waiting on other side
If an Elder loved ice, he could have a frost mountain. If another loved herbs and Alchemy, they could have a mountain perfect for growing herbs.
The Demon Sect was like a small world in itself, under the bright sky. Meanwhile the Necromancer Tower was an enclosed space, which felt suffocating for people who could never imagine living in a place like this.
Living in the Necromancer Tower felt like living inside a prison, where you could move freely. However, it lacked a certain lively character.
The Hero Academy was also similar to this place, but it was still a thousand times better.
Zia agreed with Eren. She was about to speak when she heard the sound of footsteps.
"Who are you? How did you get in here?" A loud shout came from the distance. However, merely a fraction of a second had passed before a dagger passed through the Necromancer's chest.
A slender woman grabbed his face, ripping his head apart and tossing it away.
With most of the prominent faces of Necromancer Tower entering Hell, only the weaker members were left. Even if they were strengthened, they couldn't compare to the Great Elders of the Demon Sect.
After killing the Necromancer, Zia looked back at Eren, her face having a few traces of blood. "It looks like you were right. I don't sense any powerful person within a mile radius. In that case, we can truly run wild here."
Eren agreed with Zia. The Necromancer Tower was at its weakest at the moment, even if Hell had been opened. That was also the perfect opportunity for Eren.
He told Xiu Ying to take his disciple. They were responsible for finding treasures that were kept inside the Necromancer Tower. It was also the safest task.
As for Zia, she was responsible for finding and killing the Necromancers and Hall Masters that were still alive.
After both of them were done with their work, they were to gather at the same place near the portal formation.
He sent a blood clone with Zia, leaving the gun with him to help her if needed. Although he couldn't maintain the blood clone after entering Hell, it was still useful while he was still here.
Eren didn't tell them that he had left a Spirit to follow each of them. The spirits were his thread back to this world. As long as the Spirits weren't destroyed, Yelen could always guide him back to this place.
After assigning the task for each of them, Eren went down a different path that was especially for himself. It was a path that led to the door of hell.
He had seen the door of hell in the memories of the Left Guardian. At this point, he didn't even need a map.
He treaded the path that he had seen in the memories and reached the depths of the Necromancer Tower. The closer he came to the Door of Hell, the more corpses of unknown monsters were noticed by him.
It looked like grotesque beings that had escaped from hell, only to be killed by Necromancers. The closer he came to the door, the higher the number of these corpses.
He had already seen hundreds of corpses that were destroyed by the Right Guardian who was protecting this place in the past. However, there were no fresh bodies.
Ever since the door had completely opened and stabilized, no monsters had left. It was unclear if it was simply because they had all died already.
Eren soon reached the entrance of Hell, which was like a giant door that connected to another world.
Standing near the door, Eren could truly feel the depths of terrifying aura coming from hell. Even with his increased strength, he felt unease within his heart.
He had to release the aura of the Sword Emperor to remove the suppression of hell that was acting on his body, and that was barely enough.
The thread around his neck had only grown more visible, as he was standing right next to the door. The other end of the thread was inside hell, passing through this door.
Eren was really curious as to where this thread was going to take him if he was going to follow it inside hell. For some reason, he didn't want to find out.
If there was a force inside hell that could find him, even in this world, then it couldn't be a weak force.
Eren brought out the Hell's Pass from his inventory.
Even though he could easily enter through the main door which had already been opened, he didn't want the reward to go to waste.
If his system has given him this reward, then it was definitely for some reason. The only benefit about going through the main door was that he was going to take the same path as the Necromancer Tower Master.
He didn't even know what kind of world was on the other side of this door. Even if he entered through the same path, there might be thousands of routes that couldn't be taken by the Tower Master.
Finding that person through the entrance alone was impossible. The only answer was that he needed to go to the core of hell. If the pass could get him even a fraction closer to the core, then it was worth it.
He transmitted a message to Xiu Ying and the others that he was going to take some time before meeting up with them near the portal formation. He didn't tell them that he was entering hell, or else they might want to follow him as well.
"Are you really going to enter? I feel like something really horrifying is waiting on the other side." Eren prepared to activate Hell's Pass when he heard Yelen's voice in his head.
"Believe me, if I had another choice, I wouldn't dare to do it. I can feel chills running down my spine. However, it is something that I feel like I must do. Before that horrifying thing finds me, I have to find it. Or it might be too late..."
Eren took a deep breath. He was worried that he might change his mind if he thought too much about it. Hence, he activated Hell's Pass without a second thought.
