Chen chatted with Wei Huo and the others for about 30 minutes. Then, Chen concluded by asking, “What do you think? Are you willing to join the Reformists?”

Wei Huo said, “Give me two days to consider it.”

Chen smiled. “I’ve already told you what you want to know. However, I didn’t tell you about the benefits of joining the Reformists. I’ll be frank. Join the Reformists and help me snatch the Underworld. Then, I’ll resurrect you. As Epic-ranked experts, you shouldn’t have died naturally. You must have been killed. What do you think? Don’t you want to be brought back to life to take revenge?”

Wei Huo said, “Two days.”

Chen then said, “There is no hope of staying in the Underworld. Because the rules have changed, humans are unable to become stronger. When one comes to the Underworld, one will be in this realm for life. As long as one is not resurrected, one will die sooner or later. Only by getting resurrected and leaving this place can one have any hope of fighting in the real world. You are all top-notch experts. You should understand this problem.”

To be honest, the option of leaving the Underworld was indeed tempting, as Wei Huo did not have a way to leave this world at the moment. He could not leave if he could not find the tunnel. However, Wei Huo wanted to find a Transcendence Path. If he did not, he could only fight his way through the Underworld. He did not want to wait too long.

Wei Huo asked, “For one to be able to penetrate the Underworld and head to the Void Realm, the Underworld should be the closest place to the Void Realm. Let me guess. Is this so-called tunnel below the 18 levels of Hell?”

Chen narrowed his eyes. “A new world must be created in the Void Realm. A place like the 18 levels of Hell, that goes against common sense, is naturally created in the Void Realm and is connected to the Underworld. Why do you want to find the tunnel?”

Wei Huo said, “That’s why I asked you to give me two days.”

If he could not find the tunnel or penetrate the Underworld in two days, he could only use the method Chen had given him. Although the Tenth Hall Master, who had a level-nine Divine Artifact, sounded powerful, Wei Huo also had a level-nine Divine Artifact. He was not afraid of a Mythical creature and a level-nine Divine Artifact.

Chen nodded. “Fine, there is no hurry.”

Wei Huo had already guessed Chen’s plan. He wanted to steal the Divine Artifact and obtain the position of the Hall Master while the Hall Master was not paying attention. However, Hall Masters were probably not that foolish. They should be carrying their Divine Artifact with them at all times.

Wei Huo left the courtyard and led Wu Bin to the entrance of the 18th level of Hell. Then, Wei Huo said, “Wu Bin, you thought that your future self sent you a message to warn you. Now, it seems like the Underworld is exactly the same as in the dream you had. However, what I want to tell you is that the person who can reverse the flow of time is definitely a Mythical expert who has comprehended the time rule. They’re also a super-expert.”

Wu Bin said, “I’m confident. I think I can definitely reach the Mythical stage!”

Wei Huo nodded. “It’s good to be confident. Let’s go. I’ll take you through the 18 levels of Hell. If you can become a Mythical creature in the future, you won’t die, right?”

Wu Bin was confused.

I’m only at the peak of the Epic stage!

Wei Huo said as he walked, “It’s said that the 18 levels of Hell are terrifying. According to my research, it’s a result created by the previous Tenth Hall Master. The Rules inside are definitely stronger and more lethal than in this place. If you barge in forcefully, you will definitely encounter a powerful counterattack. Use the divine weapon I lent you. Be careful. Don’t die!”

Wu Bin was confused.

Master, I’m panicking!

Rule Power surrounded Wei Huo’s body. He was about to attack. However, before he attacked, he said, “It’s difficult to enter the Underworld. I might not be able to divert my attention to protect you. Protect yourself!”

Wu Bin felt a little weak and started to retreat.

Boom!

Wei Huo made his move and pushed open the gate to the 18th level of Hell.

Wei Huo was a little surprised. “This gate is unexpectedly light. It seems like the Rule Power on it is just a decoration.”

The gate slowly opened, and Wei Huo and Wu Bin saw a lively street. There were restaurants on both sides of the street, and many children were having meals in them.

When the gate was pushed open, a few ghosts approached and looked at Wei Huo and Wu Bin curiously. A ghost walked over and said, “Are you new? This gate is no longer needed. Don’t you know how to use the elevator?”

Wei Huo asked, “What’s this place?”

A ghost touched the horn on his head and said, “This is the food street of the Hell of Tongue Pulling. It’s where our staff gathers. Their workplace is not here. You’re in the wrong place. Be careful next time.”

Wei Huo looked at the gate. A red flag had been painted on it. It was an ancient wooden gate and it was protected by Rule Power so it would not rot. It also had a teleporting ability. They had already arrived at the first level of Hell, but they were surprised by the appearance of the first level.

Unexpectedly, even the 18 levels of Hell were moving along with the times!

Wei Huo said, “We want to go to the 18th level of Hell.”

The ghost pointed in a direction. “Take the elevator there and you will reach the 18th floor. Don’t get lost next time. This gate is no longer used.”

Wei Huo nodded. “I understand. Thank you.”

After saying that, he led Wu Bin in the direction the brat had pointed. The gate behind them slowly closed. The gate was protected by Rule Power. They could not open it even if they wanted to.

Wu Bin, who was behind Wei Huo, was confused. What happened to this place being very dangerous? What happened to protecting myself well? What kind of Hell is this?

Wei Huo sighed. “Even God can’t predict everything. I didn’t expect the Underworld to be reformed from top to bottom.”

Wei Huo could not use his mental strength to explore his surroundings, as there was Rule Power everywhere. Once he used his mental strength to explore the place, his mental strength would trigger something. Then, his Rule would clash with the surrounding Rules. In the end, everything around him would be destroyed by his Rule.

When they arrived at the place the ghost had pointed at, they saw a tall building. The building reached the sky, so they could not see its top.

Wei Huo walked into the building and saw over 10 elevators. The lights in the elevators were lit, and different levels were displayed.

Wei Huo walked forward and pressed the nearest elevator button. Soon, the elevator opened and a few ghosts with horns walked out. It was worth mentioning that these ghosts were wearing suits and ties.

There were also some ordinary people in the elevator. When Wei Huo and Wu Bin walked in, an ordinary person asked, “Are you new? Where are you guys going?”

Wei Huo pressed the ‘-18’ button, and the person who had asked this question said, “Level 18? That’s rare. Normal people usually don’t go there.”

Wei Huo was curious. “Why?”
