Lin Han was a little confused.

It's also a bit messy.

He looked at the man in front of him for a long time without saying a word.

The man maintained a faint smile, as if waiting for his question.

……

"who are you?"

"War Spirit."

"What?"

"Responsible for guarding here."

"where?"

The man extended his index finger and pointed around, "It's here."

……

a long time.

Lin Han asked a question with a serious expression.

"I am dead?"

He still remembered that the man in front of him had stabbed him through the heart, and he watched helplessly as he turned into a skeleton.

The man nodded, then shook his head. "Yes, and no."

"Is that or isn't it?"

"Yes and no."

Lin Han decisively gave up continuing to argue with the other party on this issue.

He then glanced around and changed the subject.

"where is this place."

"Underworld."

Perhaps he noticed the confusion in Lin Han's eyes, so the man added, "After death, this is where we all come."

"When you die, nothing should exist anymore." Lin Han said.

The man shook his head.

"Even if the soul is destroyed, there is still a last trace of life soul, and this is the final resting place of that trace of life soul."

"Okay, we can discuss this question later. Who are you?"

"War Spirit."

……

Lin Han felt a sense of powerlessness in his heart. This way of talking made him extremely uncomfortable.

"Perhaps, if we can continue this conversation, you could tell me everything I don't know."

Zhan Ling nodded, "Well... I can talk about this..."

……

Lin Han spent a lot of effort and finally understood what kind of place this was, including what kind of existence this war spirit was.

When people die, they go to the underworld, which is this place. Normally, living people cannot come here.

Of course, you can come too.

But they will all be killed by the war spirits, and the remaining soul will become a walking corpse and completely become a part of the underworld.

Or they may transform into the unconscious ghosts walking stiffly on the plains, not knowing where to go.

The only remaining trace of obsession, such as evil thoughts, good thoughts, unwillingness, regret and other emotions, will also manifest in the underworld.

For example, the wailing souls embedded in the mountain of the sacred mountain.

And this war spirit, the man standing in front of him, is the "man" who guards the territory of the underworld.

After taking a look at Zhan Ling, Lin Han asked, "What about you? Your status in the underworld must be very high."

The war spirit thought for a moment and said, "Compared to them, I have some status, but it doesn't matter."

……

"Why did the world become different after you killed me?" Lin Han asked again.

Even now he still couldn't fully understand what kind of world this was.

"You are not dead, you are a chosen one."

"Chosen? Were you chosen?"

The War Spirit explained, "I don't have that ability, but only someone who deserves to die but hasn't, and who has once wandered between life and death, can see the true nature of the two worlds. That's you now."

"So that's it..."

Lin Han thought that the war spirit's conclusion about him was probably due to his two lives as a human.

However, he keenly grasped one key point.

"By the way, you said I can see the essence of the two worlds. How do I see it?"

Taking into account that Zhan Ling might not understand, Lin Han added, "The world I saw just now is different from what I see now."

“Well, this can be switched.”

Then, the war spirit taught him the method.

Close your eyes and focus the chaotic energy into your eyes.

He slowly opened his eyes.

The world once again turned blood red.

The war spirit in front of him also shed its flesh and blood in front of him, turning into a white skeleton with blue flames dancing in its eye sockets.

"This is the true face of this world..."

"This is your true face..."

Lin Han lowered his head and looked at his hands again. They were also white bones with the flesh and blood gone. He felt an indescribable weirdness in his heart.

No, he doesn't have the heart to do that.

His entire body looked like the war spirit, just a skeleton of bones.

Another half hour passed.

"I'm still getting used to a relatively normal world."

After clearing the chaotic energy from his eyes, Lin Han looked deeply at Zhan Ling and asked, "Why... can't I see your realm?"

There were so many questions in his mind.

The war spirit said as a matter of course, "Of course, because the realm of human cultivation is not applicable here, just get used to it."

"You mean, the underworld has its own realm divisions?"

A thoughtful look appeared on Lin Han's face.

"Have."

Zhan Ling nodded and said, "However, the realm divisions in the underworld are not obtained through cultivation. To be precise, they should be code names. Each code name is fixed and there is no distinction between high and low."

"That's new. Tell me about your so-called code name."

"No Heart, Separation of Souls, Netherworld Fire, Burning Heart Tribulation, Immortal Bones, Falling Immortal Corpse."

Zhan Ling paused, then continued, "Wu Xin refers to those souls that wander around without consciousness; Li Po refers to those evil spirits that have no mind."

"As for the Netherworld Fire..."

He pointed at himself, then at Lin Han, "You and me."

Afraid that Lin Han still didn't understand, Zhan Ling took out a mirror from his storage ring and handed it to him.

Lin Han took the mirror and gathered the chaotic energy into his eyes.

Now, he saw his true appearance.

A skeleton dressed in black, a blood-red cape, and a conical hat.

It is different from the war spirit.

In Zhan Ling's eye sockets, blue flames danced, while in his eye sockets, black and white flames danced...

"Just now I was talking about the division of code names... If it's not obtained through cultivation, then what is the basis for it?"

The War Spirit replied, "Netherfire is always Netherfire. However, Netherfire is a relatively special existence. It can assimilate several other types of undead spirits and refine them into its own puppet substitutes. In addition, it has another ability that allows it to travel between the two worlds."

"That is to say, if I kill other undead, they will also become Netherfire."

"Devouring their souls."

The war spirit grinned, "We can become stronger by devouring life souls."

"Okay, let's try this later." Lin Han pondered for a moment and said, "What about the Burning Heart Tribulation?"

"I don't know. I am Netherfire." The War Spirit reiterated, "Netherfire can never become a Burning Heart Tribulation."

"Can't surpass?" Lin Han was a little disappointed.

"They are all the same. No one is better than anyone else."

The war spirit seemed to be lost in memory, "I once saw a very powerful Nether Fire that killed the Burning Heart Tribulation."

……

"What about the immortal bones?"

"I haven't seen it, but it's said to be very powerful." Zhan Ling smiled, a hint of yearning in his expression, "If I could leave this place, I would also like to see it."

"That Fallen Immortal Corpse... forget it, let's talk about something else."

The war spirit has never seen immortal bones, and in all likelihood has never seen the corpse of a fallen immortal.

Lin Han's gaze fell on the sacred mountain in the distance.

"What's going on with that mountain? Why are there so many ferocious beasts there? And the place you're guarding is to suppress those ferocious beasts and wronged souls, isn't it?"

The war spirit shook his head and said, "Those are mountain spirits. Like me, they guard a territory."

"Okay, I understand." Lin Han's gaze fell on Zhan Ling again, "Next, we have to settle old scores."
