Hell's Handbook-Chapter 362

The lava spewing from the volcano was filled with dead bodies that were all charred and burned, like a burned piece of pork. Some didnt even have any skin or flesh left, leaving only crystal clear bones. These victims physical bodies had clearly reached a very advanced stage of refinement, or they wouldnt have had such bones.

Whats going on?! exclaimed Oscar in horror.

Su Jin immediately scanned the area with his psychokinesis. He wanted to check if there was anything useful among the bodies, or if there were any survivors.

The other four could see the silver glint in Su Jins eyes and knew that he was using his psychokinesis to scan the place, so they kept quiet and waited for him to finish scanning.

I got something! Shen Wu, nine o clock, bring that fellow back here! Su Jin commanded Shen Wu.

Fine, Ill listen to you for now, snapped Shen Wu as the view of what was happening in that direction appeared in his mind and he rushed over immediately. There was a lot of lava over there, so he was the only one who could possibly get in there and come back safely.

You? Shen Wu waded through the lava and found an area where the lava was boiling. He reached out and picked a black lump out of it.

Shen Wu brought the lump back in no time and threw it at Su Jin as he snapped, You want this thing? Whatever for?

Su Jin ignored Shen Wus annoyed questioning, his heart thumping nervously as he squatted down and placed a hand on that black lump. He held on and didnt care that the lava was burning his hand.

My friend, I know youre feeling indignant. Tell me what happened to you, murmured Su Jin as his palm gave off a silvery glow. The black lump gave off a brilliant silvery glow, as though it was responding to Su Jin.

This thing has psychokinesis too! exclaimed Natasha in surprise. freeweb(n)ovel

A rather unclear image appeared in Su Jins mind a moment later, but it was definitely the inside of the volcano. There were many others inside too, but one white dot stood in the middle and sniggered as though it was mocking the one staring at it. Then, lava gushed out and almost everyone inside was covered in lava. This psychokinetic lump did not manage to escape this fate.

After that, it remained trapped inside the volcano for several days before it was finally spewed out, then it was found by Su Jin.

Su Jin let go of the black lump and narrowed his eyes slightly as he sighed heavily. He waved his hand and a silvery glow tore the black lump apart, and the pieces flew away.

How did it go? Durand asked Su Jin.

Su Jin sighed and said, Like me, this fellow had formidable levels of psychokinesis. So formidable that if we were to fight it out, itd be hard to foresee who would lose.

The rest looked rather surprised. Psychokinesis was a power that was the most difficult to develop, and the fact that Su Jin and Xu Ran got this far was already a miracle among miracles. They didnt expect to find other owners who could match their level. The other Handbook worlds had way more high-level owners than they realized.

Did you get any information? asked Natasha curiously.

Su Jin nodded slightly and said, I got some, but its not much. It seems theres a very powerful being inside the volcano and hes in charge of testing every person who enters the Grave of the Gods. Only those who pass the test can move on. Those who fail will end up like that black lump, dying from the lava before getting spewed out.

So that powerful thing didnt make it? Natasha was very shocked.

Su Jin nodded and said, Yup. He failed pretty miserably. The others with him failed and died too. They were apparently the most highly ranked owners of their world, and they all perished.

This information made everyone feel rather anxious. They were the most highly ranked owners of their own world, but if the entire universe consisted of other worlds with their own Handbook system, then it wasnt strange to find beings more powerful than themselves among these non-human creatures. Yet, a formidable owner that was on par with Su Jin had perished, along with everyone else who came with it. That was not encouraging at all.

Feeling scared now? If you are, you can wait here for me to become a god and bring you back! said Shen Wu confidently as he stared disdainfully at the rest of the group.

Gosh, youre not a likeable character at all, remarked Durand with a sigh. Each of them led a faction of sorts in their own worlds, but Shen Wu had the worst reputation among them because of that organization of robbers he led. This was a man with an audacious, obsessive, and egoistic personality. The group simply couldnt understand how someone who embodied all sorts of terrible characteristics could have made it this far.

Scared? Not even death can stop me, never mind a mere test! said Durand in an annoyed voice as he started marching toward the top of the volcano.

Young man, Ill be the one saving you, not the other way round, said Natasha as she walked up to Shen Wu, tapped him cheekily on the head, and made her way toward the top of the volcano as well.

Im the one wholl become a god, mark my words, said Oscar as he rolled his eyes and followed behind Natasha. Only Su Jin and Shen Wu were left. free(w)ebnovel(.)com

Youre not going to say anything? asked Shen Wu with a smirk as he threw Su Jin a glance.

Su Jin frowned and said, Even if the whole thing with Ye Yun didnt happen, both of us would still never be friends. But we ought to help one another now. He started making his way up the volcano as well, and Shen Wu followed behind him with no expression on his face.

The road to the top of the volcano was a lot safer, as though it was meant to let the climbers catch their breath. But that made everyone feel even more uneasy.

After walking for about half a day, they realized that they were still a long way off from the peak. The volcano was simply too huge. The ash spewing out from inside formed thick layers that resembled rainclouds. At the same time, the ash falling from the sky looked like black snow.

Argh, this is so troublesome! Everyone, get on my back, Ill fly you guys up. Natasha was getting impatient, so she transformed into a dragon after saying that to the rest of the group.

Thanks! said Durand with a big smile. He was happy to save as much energy as he could. They all hopped onto Natashas back, and she soared into the sky.

But when she reached less than a hundred meters from the ground, a white light began flashing nonstop among the clouds of ash, and Su Jin had a bad feeling about it.

As Natasha continued ascending, Su Jin kept his eye on the flashing white light. He noticed that the higher she flew, the more brilliant the light became.

Natasha, stop! Stop going higher up! Su Jin shouted to Natasha. There was something really off about that white light. He had a feeling that it would strike them like a bolt of lightning if they kept going up.

But she was ascending too quickly, so his voice was lost in the wind, and Natasha couldnt hear him at all. He decided to communicate with her via psychokinesis, but before he could do that, the white light suddenly came crashing down on them.

So, instead of using his psychokinesis to talk to Natasha, he sent out even more to form a wall over Natashas head, which shattered instantly as the white light hit it.

Su Jini vomited blood, but it wasnt because he was badly injured, but because he had suffered quite the shock. The rest finally noticed the white light.

Oscar, hide us in a shadow! Durand shouted at Oscar.

But Oscar paled as he shook his head and said, I cant just make a shadow appear in mid air like this! I need an object to create a shadow!

Immediately after he said that, the white light came crashing down again. It hit all of them before they even got the chance to hop off Natasha.
