Chapter 404

“It’s going to be a tough walk, indeed. First, we have to cross two steep mountains, then enter Swamp Valley. After

that, we’ll reach Soul-Splitting Ridge! History tells us everyone who had ever entered these places had all perished.”

Bradley accepted the cigarette Xeno held out to him, lit it, and then put it in his mouth.

Nico looked worried. “So, aren’t we basically looking for trouble by going there?”

Bradley released a puff of smoke and replied confidently, “Among those who perished, none of them were from the

Tomb Seekers Hall. We managed to cross both places many years ago. Although we faced some setbacks, no one

was harmed!”

Hearing this, the group breathed a sigh of relief.

Three hours later, the three rafts fulfilled their

purpose. The group continued their journey on foot, hiking through mountains and valleys with their backpacks.

The mountain path twisted and turned, and they were met with the occasional falling rocks.

Bradley had connected everyone using a rope and was leading the way at the front. Behind him was Nash, followed

by Derek, Nico, Heidi, Xeno, Finn, and Ken while Melody brought up the

rear.

Nash and Melody took the front and back to prevent anyone from slipping since they had the highest cultivation,

which gave them the strength to hold onto everyone. For six hours, they grasped the cliff walls with both hands and

cautiously traversed a path that was less than ten centimeters wide. There was no chance for them to rest along

the way, and their nerves were constantly on edge.

Suddenly, there was a loud rumbling as the rocks beneath Derek’s feet gave way. He lost his balance and fell. He

was over a hundred pounds and ended up dragging Heidi and Nico down with him.

At the front, Nash’s face twisted up as he clung onto the cliff with one hand, the other

gripping the rope tightly. Behind him, Xeno, Finn, and Melody pulled the incredibly resilient nylon rope taut.

Nico was pale, his pants instantly soaked. Heidi had her arms wrapped around Derek’s waist as she screamed while

Derek’s heart raced.

“Melody, with me! Pull the rope tight!” Nash roared. They were more than a thousand meters above the ground.

“Alright!” Melody wrapped the rope around her hands and began to pull hard. The rope slowly tightened as the two

of them exerted their strength.

“Grandpa, the rope won’t break, will it?” A pale-faced Nico glanced down at his feet, and the thousand meters

height struck terror in him. It was to the point that he wet his pants slightly. If he were to fall from this height, there

was no doubt that he would be reduced to a pile of shattered bones. If he had known that things would be this

dangerous, he would not have

come.

Bradley’s heart was in his throat. When he heard Nico, he hurriedly reassured him, “This is a

rope Madam Lunaris made using special materials. It can withstand a weight of up to 1,500 kilograms!”
