"What exactly are the conditions?" Zu'an immediately asked, thinking that he should also give it a try and make sure that the Skin-Peeling Ghost King didn't complete the trial.
"Only those who are kings of a certain region of the Netherworld are qualified to participate in the final test," the giant statue replied.
Since he's called the King of Skinning Demons, he's most likely the king of the skinning hell, which certainly meets the criteria.
“Wait a minute,” Zuan suddenly changed his expression, looking at the dark abyss below the cliff. “I remember the Skinning Demon King once said that only the dead can enter this place, so does that mean I’m destined to be unable to participate in this trial?”
The colossus paused, and after a long while, replied, "That is indeed the case."
Zuan: "..."
Shang Liuyu: "..."
"Then why did you call me here?" Zuan was a little annoyed. He never expected there to be such a trial. He could only wait for the Skin-Peeling Ghost King to give the results. If another being passed the trial, it would be fine, and it might not affect this world. But if the Skin-Peeling Ghost King really succeeded, some variables would inevitably arise, and he hated variables the most.
“I originally intended to give you another opportunity, but now that I’ve recognized your identity, I’ve changed my mind. I think it would be better if you won this trial,” the giant statue said.
Zuan frowned: "But I'm a living person, not a dead one. How can I enter the Netherworld to participate in your trial?"
"It is indeed a problem. I will try to delay the start of the trial. During this time, you should find something related to the Netherworld. You must be quick, as I am only a wisp of remnant spirit now and cannot affect the trial for too long," the giant statue said quickly.
"Something related to the Netherworld?" Zu An's heart stirred. Suddenly, he reached out and summoned a drop of murky yellow water, with a faint trace of blood flowing through it. "Will this work?"
This is something I got from the War Priest. I really have to thank him; he dropped a lot of gold coins on me.
"The River of Oblivion? I never expected you to possess the River of Oblivion. It seems this is the will of Heaven." The giant statue was also somewhat excited and couldn't help but sigh.
"So what's the next step?" Zuan asked.
The giant statue replied, "With this drop of water from the River of Oblivion as a medium, I can connect you with the Netherworld and make you a member of the Netherworld as well."
Shang Liuyu's expression changed: "But the Netherworld is full of the dead!"
If saving the world requires Zaun to sacrifice his life, what is the point of such a salvation?
