BXBX NOVEL Chapter 463 463: Ghost City
Fortunately, the beings in the Nether Realm weren\'t backward. Despite the absence of spiritual energy, they had found a way to increase the speed of travel between places.
They couldn\'t use spirit formations that ran on spiritual stones since they were useless here. It was precisely because of that, they found another way! Using the undead!
There was an undead species that could use teleportation, without magic! The species was mentally weak, but had strong mastery of spatial concepts.
In the world, every important place had a few people from the Undead Clan who could use teleport to other locations.
Whenever someone had anything urgent, they could ask the Undead Clan for their help in travel. However, helping or not helping depended entirely on the will of the Undead Clan.
Most ordinary people didn\'t even have authority to ask for the Undead Clan\'s help in travel until it was a matter of life and death of the Nether Realm.
Once a person was found to be lying, or exaggerating to use the Undead Clan, they were killed swiftly. That\'s why, even when it was important, many people still hesitated and preferred slower travel!
Only the higher ups from the Blood Clan and the Nether Beast Clan could use the Undead Clan for teleportations whenever they wanted. It was a deal between the three clans.
Unfortunately, no one realized that at the moment, there was something big happening in the outer layer.
****
The Ghost City was one of the biggest and most influential cities in the outer layer of the Nether Realm. Even though the outer layer was called the most useless land in the Nether Realm, people from the three great clans could often be seen in the Ghost City.
Even though the three great clans had many deals between them, that didn\'t mean there wasn\'t conflict between them. The youngsters of the three great clans could often be seen fighting each other, right in the city itself.
No one even dared to stop them, in fear of offending the great powers behind them! The three Great Clans were the undisputed overlords of the Nether Realm after all.
Even though the Nether Beast Clan and the Undead Clan weren\'t as strong as the Blood Clan, their strengths weren\'t to be underestimated either as no one truly knew just what the true depths of the two great clans were.
They never revealed their true strengths after all. That\'s why, no one dared to underestimate them. There were even some rumors that the Nether Beast Clan had a true dragon hiding inside the clan!
Obviously, the Nether Beast Clan never acknowledged the rumor. However, that didn\'t mean it was a lie either. As for the Undead Clan... They were the most mysterious out of the three since they were truly born from the chaos and deaths in the Battlefield!
At that moment, two people stood at the entrance of the Ghost City. Both those people were wearing a cloak that was covering their faces. However, that didn\'t hide their heights. It was evident that one of them was a child while the other was an adult!
Nothing seemed out of place about their aura, as if they were ordinary people of the outer layer.
"According to him, this is the place." The taller person amongst the two said. He was none other than Alion. After a long and arduous trip, he had finally managed to reach this place with Jia.
What was fortunate was that there were no problems along the way. They stayed away from the people in the outer layer throughout their trip. They only stopped for a short period to confirm directions from the others.
As they still hadn\'t used their Spiritual Strength at all, they still had their complete strength. They were just a little exhausted from the long journey.
"The Nether Realm is almost as big as the upper realm. However, without the spiritual aura, it is not easy to travel."
Jia had spent a long time in the Upper Realm and she had gotten used to the convenience of flying to their destination, or just using teleportation portals without any troubles. However, this place was much different.
It was like they had traveled from the modern area to the times where magic had yet to evolve.
"I don\'t think we can blame the people here for that. Without the spiritual aura, it\'s impossible to do anything. We also can\'t waste our limited strength in flying. We have to reserve it for emergencies. There\'s a long way ahead of us after all," Alion sighed, stepping inside the Ghost City.
When Jia used to chase him in the past, many people knew of the enmity between the two. However, none could\'ve expected that there would be a time when the two would be walking side by side, talking like true allies.
"It\'s already very fortunate that the Undead Clan has someone who can take us to our destination," Alion responded, looking in a certain direction.
The Undead Clan branch was established in the center of the City along with the branches of the three other clans. That was also his current destination.
"I don\'t think the undead clan will help us, even if we pretend to be people from the Nether Realm. We really might need to take them down first." Jia reminded Alion.
If someone else from the ghost City were next to them to listen to their conversation, they would\'ve been shocked. Someone was talking about taking down the mighty Undead Clan so casually, as if they really weren\'t scared of death. Unfortunately, no one heard the conversation between the two.
The Ghost City was huge. Even with so many people living in the city, it still appeared empty due to how big the City was.
Just the road in the middle of the city was over twenty meters wide. One thing that the Nether Realm didn\'t lack was its area after all.
Alion and Jia tried to avoid walking close to the others from the start.
Boom~
It hadn\'t been long since the two had entered the City when they heard a loud explosion in the distance.
They rushed over, only to find two people fighting with each other! One appeared to be a human while the other was a person with horns on his head and a light blue skin! It was just like how Gabriel described the beings from the Nether Beast Realm that they were told to avoid fighting if possible!
