Ledger's heart felt as if it had been tightly clenched, his heartbeat completely out of his control, almost jumping out of his throat!

Puff...

Ledger couldn't resist and suddenly spewed out a mouthful of blood, his face instantly turning pale.

He was horrified in his heart, whose heartbeat was it after all, just a heartbeat, yet it caused him serious injury.

How incredible was the original self?!

Ledger clenched his teeth and took out a fragment from the storage ring.

This is a fragment he obtained during his previous experience, not knowing what it was, without any fluctuations. Ledger originally thought it was a piece of junk.

At this moment, there was a certain intuition that taking it out could save one's life!

He blocked the scrap iron in front of him. With a loud bang, the rust on the scrap iron was shaken off by the sound of his heartbeat, revealing its dark interior.

Ledger was shocked to see the scrap metal in his hand transform into a dark-colored, deadly defensive treasure. The sound of his pounding heart almost vanished, as if it was about to be crushed. Apart from the thumping sound, he could no longer feel any harm.

"It turned out to be a good thing!" Ledger exclaimed in surprise.

It seems that this thing can also be given to Susie - if she wants to come here in the future.

Ledger leaned against the "scrap metal", which was like a sharp blade, effortlessly cutting through the barrier that sealed the entrance. He took a step forward.

He encountered mysterious fog at the age of seven and entered the realm of darkness at the age of eleven.

Over the years, when I was just a little child, I never feared anything, and naturally I wouldn't hesitate to come in just because there was danger ahead.

He became stronger step by step, also coming from life and death.

Ledger had imagined a million scenarios inside the cave, but he had never imagined the scene before his eyes.

At first glance, only one thought occupied his mind:

Can gods die?

Where did God go after he died?

Will gods be buried in the underworld after their death?

Is Mount Adams the burial ground of the gods in the underworld?!

Ledger looked at the scene in shock as a beating heart was held in mid-air by a scepter.

There was a small cave with a height of only one person, but once inside, it was surprisingly spacious. At first glance, it resembled an underground city, and in the center of the "city" stood a tall scepter, with only a beating heart on top of it.

The inexplicable light illuminated the underground city, and the first thought that came to mind was the fallen deity.

The place where Ledger stood was, in fact, the mountains surrounding this underground city.

It took Ledger half a day to enter this underground city, only to discover that the buildings, which appeared to be houses and towers from a distance, were actually one tomb after another.

During the deep period, it instead appeared serene.

"How could there be such a place in the underworld..." Ledger thought to himself.

After all, the underworld is the place where the souls of the dead belong, while in the human world, graves are built, not in the underworld.

Ledger wanted to see who these graves belonged to and what was written on them, but the tombstones stood there with not a single word on them.

All the tombstones were blank.

Ledger's brow furrowed even more tightly as he cautiously walked towards the massive central scepter.

The graves around the staff had become increasingly tall, almost the same size as the living quarters. If Ledger hadn't just seen the style of those tombstones, he would have thought he had entered an ancient city. Each of the "houses" surrounding him was actually a constructed tomb.

Suddenly, Ledger's footsteps came to a halt as he looked towards a lavishly decorated building on the right, resembling a temple.

He furrowed his brow, carefully observing multiple times, and tightly gripped the "scrap metal" in his hand before walking towards the ancestral hall.

There was nothing inside the ancestral hall; it was also empty.

However, there was a stone book.

The stone book was very heavy, but it should have been a loose-leaf one, it just depended on who could push it.

Ledger looked at the pages of the book, not a single word had been written on them all the way here, but now the pages were filled with words, which made him freeze for a moment.

The characters above appear to be traditional characters, but with some differences, hiding a mystery. Ledger struggled to read them for quite a while before finally understanding, and his heart was greatly shaken!

The book above recorded secrets related to the underworld.

The beginning lines describe the five gods of the underworld, which were not the Five Ghost Emperors or Emperor Justice that he had known before.

Emperor Justice was indeed recorded on it, but surprisingly, Emperor Justice only ranked fourth?!

Ledger always believed that Emperor Justice was the greatest emperor in the underworld...
