"Impossible! Are you trying to trigger the turmoil of the Zero Realm ahead of time?"
When Elizabeth heard that Zhang Chen wanted to make a move against Xing Shi, shock appeared on her face.
"Is that not possible?" Zhang Chen asked in return.
"Of course not. The price would be several times greater than that of a damaged divine artifact. Killing Xing Shi means becoming enemies with the entire Ghoul Realm, and it would also set in motion the 'core gear' that governs the entire Zero Realm. Without sufficient foundations, even my life might be thrown into this."
Zhang Chen did feel that his request had been a little excessive.
"Then I'll make another request. Soon, I'll be going to one of the forbidden lands of the Zero Realm, the Abyss of Ten Thousand Sins. Could Miss Elizabeth accompany me throughout the journey? After all, I'm quite unfamiliar with the Zero Realm's environment. The three treasures you brought out just now prove that you've surely visited many dangerous places in the Zero Realm."
"Don't try to be clever. What are you going to the Abyss of Ten Thousand Sins for?"
The woman before him retreated to the bedside, crossing her long, pale legs and folding her arms beneath her chest as she looked at Zhang Chen.
"A friend is trapped inside. I need to rescue him."
"It seems you truly understand nothing. Everyone in the Abyss of Ten Thousand Sins has committed heinous crimes and is imprisoned there for all eternity. To release a prisoner from below, you must offer the Zero Realm a contribution equivalent to the crimes they committed, much like the bail process in human law."
"Moreover, the entire bail procedure must be handled through a special Great Realm of the Zero Realm, the Sin Source Realm.
