Chapter 1708 The Passage in Front of the Wall of Sighs (Subscription Request)

Gu Xi had only one evaluation of the underworld in front of him: everything was fine except that the distance along the way fully reflected the characteristics of the undead.

No concept of time.

They don't care about the time wasted on the road.

Now Gu Xi has also become like this.

It took about ten days, but he finally led his army to the Wall of Sighs.

His men were puzzled by Gu Xi's behavior.

"Sir, you can open the portal and return to the living world directly, why do you have to go to the Wall of Sighs?"

Gu Xi, who was walking slowly, said calmly.

“Before I arrived at Daoguangling, I thought about recruiting enough soldiers and then directly opening a portal to the mortal world.

It doesn't matter whether you go to the Wall of Sighs or not.

But after listening to what the ghost in Daoguangling said, I feel that I still need to come to the Wall of Sighs once."

"Why?" Rhine asked puzzledly.

"Procedural reasons."

Gu Xi finally explained, "My previous idea was to go to the living world through the portal, complete the mission, and drag the kingdom to the underworld.

But after listening to the words of the dead spirit, a question occurred to me: who said that the underworld in front of us is the only one?

I opened a portal from the underworld and came to the world of the living, and I left a root in the underworld.

After all, the portal is a two-way street.

You may not understand this, but the essence is like this: where you come from is where you will eventually return.

Only by walking through the Wall of Sighs can such problems be avoided.

Because walking through the Wall of Sighs is a process from death to life, representing that one has left the underworld and transformed from a dead person into a living person.

I hadn’t thought about this before, and I was very happy that I could open the door to the world of the living.

Now thinking about it, this was a wrong choice.

That’s not right. It’s not necessarily wrong, it’s just a better choice. But after making this choice, I’m afraid I’ll be affected by the Nether Spirit Flower again.

I still want to do things my way.

Only what I control is truly mine."

As Gu Xi spoke, the purple butterfly petals on his gloves were slightly flickering, and the purple color was slowly turning into another color.

However, the change was quite subtle, so Gu Xi did not pay attention to it and naturally did not notice it.

At this moment, all his attention was focused on the Wall of Sighs in front of him.

In fact, the Wall of Sighs had already appeared on the horizon three days ago, after Gu Xi left the Ninth Prison.

But Gu Xi just kept looking at the location of the Wall of Sighs. He walked for three days and three nights but still hadn't gotten close to the Wall of Sighs.

The reason why he has reached the Wall of Sighs now is because he feels that the ground has changed.

The originally deserted dirt road has turned into a black stone road.

If you look closely, you will find that there are no gaps between the stone slabs in front of you.

It's as if they were cast together with something.

The color of this stone slab is exactly the same as the stone used to build the Wall of Sighs. There is no doubt that this ground is also part of the Wall of Sighs.

When you walk on it, you will feel like you are standing in the center of the entire underworld.

Of course, Gu Xi did not think that he was really at the center of the underworld. At this moment, his attention was focused on the Wall of Sighs.

When seeing the Wall of Sighs, Gu Xi had a feeling that this thing was the embodiment of death.

If there is anything that can represent death, then this is the answer.

There is a wall that is infinitely high, infinitely long and infinitely thick. On the other side of the wall is paradise and life, and those trapped on this side of the wall are dead.

Because facing this high wall, even though we know what is behind it, we cannot get past it.

It can be said that at this moment, Gu Xi finally understood the meaning of death. He shook his head, "I didn't expect that as a necromancer, I would have to learn philosophy."

While Gu Xi was speaking, the Black Blood Knights beside him suddenly moved and quickly surrounded Gu Xi.

"what happened?"

"My lord, I heard a different sound coming from the wind." said a Black Blood Knight.

He is one of the Black Blood Knights who obtained strange skills from the boundary stone.

His ability is to listen to the wind. As long as there is wind, he can hear the corresponding information from the wind.

As he spoke, he pointed in a direction.

Gu Xi looked in the direction he pointed and found that four strange men in black robes had appeared there.

This strange man in black robe was as thin as a bamboo pole. He was wearing a black cloak, which was a bit torn.

Looking at these strange men in black robes, Gu Xi frowned.

"Wall Watcher?"

"Outsider, Death has already told us your purpose. We are willing to unilaterally open the way to the world of the living for you."

Gu Xi was also a little confused when he heard it.

"It's that simple?"

“Outsider, your strength and your understanding of death allow you to step into the Wall of Sighs and enter the Land of Bliss.

And your profession is a necromancer, right?

Your profession will also allow you to bring your men with you.

You bring too many undead with you, so many that they will destroy the tranquility of Paradise.

So we are willing to unilaterally open the way to the world of the living for you."

The Wall Keeper was the first person who saw through Gu Xi's official occupation after he entered the bound world.

Others always mistake Gu Xi for a knight, or at most a knight who wants to be a shooter, or a knight who has already become a shooter.

"How did you figure out my profession?"

“The outsider who built the Wall of Sighs is also a necromancer who follows the path of the Hades.

You have the same aura as him.

We have been guarding the Wall of Sighs for so many years, we can't be wrong."

"So you are a senior. I would like to thank you very much."

Gu Xi understood the situation as soon as he heard it.

At the same time, I also understood what the other party meant.

What death told them.

It is obvious that the big boss behind the underworld does not want to see Gu Xi.

Although he didn't know why, Gu Xi himself was not the kind of person who liked to create unnecessary trouble.

Now that the other party has given him benefits, Gu Xi just needs to take them. He is not someone who specifically wants to go to paradise.

Seeing that Gu Xi was so easy to talk to, the four wall guards also breathed a sigh of relief.

“Thank you so much, you don’t have to go any further, please go this way.

However, outsiders, the reason why the road is specially opened this time is relaxed is entirely because of your profession.

You are a necromancer, and we have not violated the rules of the Wall of Sighs.

The one who truly returns to the world of the living is you, and these are the souls you brought with you.

Please keep this in mind.”

"I see."
