Full-Time Magister: Super Mage

Chapter 393 Jiang Han's Plan, The Otherworld After the Space Tunnel

Jiang Han and the others fell silent. If they went together, they would live and die together, but the probability of the millions of people in the ancient capital surviving was only one in ten. If they went separately, they might be separated by death, but the probability of the disaster in the ancient capital being averted would become one in half.

The Bridge of Nine Deaths and One Life was probably built to test the choices of those who ventured in: would you choose to sacrifice yourself for the greater good, or would you choose to survive by banding together for personal gain?

"Fang Gu, is this so-called Death Gate absolutely certain?" Jiang Han asked with a serious expression.

"I'm not entirely sure either. Just like the Abyss of Fiends isn't an absolute forbidden zone of death, the Bridge of Nine Deaths and One Life might be relative. The Bridge of Death might not necessarily be a dead end, and the Bridge of Life might not guarantee a safe journey to the Blood Throne Altar," Fang Gu said, shaking his head.

"How about we split up?" Jiang Han said after thinking for a moment.

"No, splitting up is too dangerous. Do you want the others to walk a dead path? I don't agree to follow the rules of a dead man. If we're going to take the risk, let's go together. At worst, we'll die together, so we won't be alone on the road to the underworld," Mo Fan refused.

"Brother Fan, I also want to cross the Bridge of Life and Death with everyone, but millions of people in the ancient capital are waiting for us." Although Zhang Xiaohou understood Mo Fan's thoughts, as a Dharma Master, he still chose Jiang Han's suggestion.

"When I said 'split up,' I didn't mean each of us would take a separate path. Instead, Mo Fan, you and Zhang Xiaohou will walk across one bridge together, while I'll walk across another. I'll also have my summoned creatures follow you," Jiang Han explained somewhat helplessly.

Jiang Han then summoned Long Da, Long Er, dozens of undead lizard giants, and nearly a hundred warrior-level white bone lizard demons again, filling the white jade platform with their massive numbers.

Jiang Han assigned Long Da, who had reached the level of a minor monarch, and nearly a hundred white bone lizard demons to protect Mo Fan, Zhang Xiaohou, and the others.

Long Er was accompanied by dozens of undead lizard giants, while Jiang Han only symbolically arranged a few warrior-level undead giant lizards for Fang Gu, who also had to cross another bridge.

"Stop dawdling, let's meet at the Blood Throne Altar." With that, Jiang Han walked towards one of the arched bridges.

Dozens of undead lizard-headed giants led the way, with Jiang Han carrying the soft Xue Ling in his arms, followed by the enormous Long Er, giving off a sense of an ancient emperor's procession.

"See you at the Blood Throne Altar," Mo Fan nodded and said.

After saying that, Mo Fan led them to a bridge that looked like the Gate of Life. Nearly a hundred white bone lizard demons were clearing the way, and he, Zhang Xiaohou, and Su Xiaoluo sat on Long Da's back.

The dragon, having reached the level of a minor monarch, possessed wisdom no less than that of a human. It could communicate with Mo Fan and his companions, and simultaneously command the skeletal lizard demons to clear the way.

As for Fang Gu, it was Jiang Han who gave the orders to the undead giant lizards in advance through Long Da.

·····

Not long after Jiang Han and the others left, another person arrived at the Bridge of Life and Death. He was wearing a military green Guardian Mage uniform and looked like a middle-aged man with a stubble beard. If Jiang Han were here, he would definitely recognize him as Chief Instructor Zhan Kong.

"Was I still a step too late?" Zhan Kong murmured to himself as he stood before the Bridge of Life and Death.

In the end, Zhan Kong also randomly chose a bridge and walked onto it. He was also unsure which bridge was the Gate of Life and could only walk by feeling. But coincidentally, he walked on the same bridge as Jiang Han.

After Jiang Han stepped onto the white arched bridge, he walked deeper and deeper into the darkness without realizing it.

The bridge was pitch black; if it weren't for the soul fire in the eye sockets of the undead lizard-headed giant, it would have been quite eerie.

As they walked, a silver mirror appeared on the bridge ahead. This mirror was very strange, standing there on the bridge, with silver ripples constantly spreading across its surface, like a spatial gate connecting to other worlds.

It's not just a resemblance; it's a portal to another dimension. As for where you'll end up after passing through the spatial tunnel inside, I suppose it's the challenge of the Gate of Death.

That's right, the path Jiang Han chose was one of the nine deadly gates.

However, Jiang Han didn't care and stepped directly into the spatial vortex within the silver mirror wall.

After a moment of dizziness, Jiang Han felt himself falling rapidly from the sky with Xue Ling in his arms. Without him having to summon his Winged Demon Tool, Long Er flapped its huge bone wings and caught the falling Jiang Han.

As for the undead lizard-headed giants that were clearing the way, they crashed onto the solid gray rocks below like dumplings being dropped into a pot.

bang bang bang! ! !

The sound of the undead lizard-headed giants crashing against the rocks continued to ring out. At least a dozen unlucky undead lizard-headed giants died because their soul fires escaped after their skulls were cracked. Most of them only broke bones and did not suffer any serious injuries.

The still-living undead lizard giant did not waste the soul fires scattered in mid-air; it directly devoured them and used them for its own purposes.

"Another alternate dimension. Just how many alternate dimensions did this ancient king set up in this tomb?" Jiang Han stood on Long Er's back and looked down. It was an independent little world.

The small world wasn't very vast; looking up, you could see a distinctly curved sky, and the gray rocky land below seemed to stretch to the horizon at a glance.
