Chapter 1260 The Yama's Prefecture

"What else could be more important than my own life? I can't protect anyone aside from myself. That's why I can't make any promises to you." The child adamantly refused. He apparently didn't think very highly of the divine weapon or the cultivation methods.

Now that the child really couldn't agree, Jenifer decided to just give up on the idea completely.

"I respect your decision." She then went on, "But I do have some questions for you. Could you answer them for me?"

"No problem. You can ask me anything. I'll tell you everything I know."

"Okay." Jenifer nodded and cleared her throat before asking, "What is this place? I can't say I believe in the underworld. Moreover, why did these people come here?"

"Ha-ha! You have sharp eyes." The boy chuckled and said, "The Primitive Wilderness is full of gods. It's true that there is no such thing as an underworld.

Plus, we're all living creatures here. Have you ever heard of the nine regions and the ten prefectures?"

"Of course I have. Who hasn't?"

"Well, this place is called the Yama's Prefecture, and its ruler is called Yama. In fact, Yama is actually also a human being. Rumor has it, he firmly believes in the existence of the netherworld, so he built this place to recreate it," the child explained.

Hearing this, Jenifer furrowed her brows in confusion and said, "As far as I know, there isn't a Yama's Prefecture within the nine regions and ten prefectures."

She had lived in the abyss for so many years already. Jenifer knew the names of the nine regions and the ten prefectures like the back of her hand, but she'd never heard of Yama's Prefecture. Moreover, the nine regions and ten prefectures were on the land of the Primitive Wilderness. How could they appear in the abyss?

"One thing you don't know is that the nine regions and ten prefectures have never been fixed since ancient times. They are constantly changing. This Yama's Prefecture was a powerful force in the ancient times, but it was later replaced by a new and more powerful force. They were then expelled from the land of the Primitive Wilderness to the abyss, so most people had no knowledge of the Yama's Prefecture.

They were once a force to be reckoned with," the boy said.

After hearing this, Jenifer nodded in understanding. She could feel this explanation was legitimate.

"W

bore the pain bravely and didn't make a sound.

"Jenifer, you don't have to do this. You've lost your god's power. You'll die if you do this."

The scene made Briggs Zhou's heart pang with pity for her.

Without saying a word, she protected the avatar. Gradually, the pain she felt disappeared, which was the primary sign that all her muscles had already failed her.

"Why are you so stubborn?" Seeing this, Briggs Zhou could practically feel her pain all over his body, and he felt so sorry for her.

The avatar just lay quietly under Jennifer. At the moment, his eyes were not only bleeding, but also shimmering with tears.

"I can't stand this anymore." Briggs Zhou thought that he had already seen enough death, and this had turned his heart cold. But seeing Jennifer risk her life to save a dying person made his heart twist.

"Catch!"

He quickly took out a transparent stone from his arms and threw it in Jenifer's direction.

He still felt a little regretful the moment he threw it out, but desperate times called for desperate measures. He had a very bad feeling at the thought of what would happen on the eating day one month later.

"I'm such an idiot," Briggs Zhou couldn't help scolding himself.

The transparent stone fell directly on her hand, but she didn't move an inch. She was on the verge of death.

Witnessing the scene, Briggs Zhou felt that he could easily take back the Divine Essence Stone he had thrown. After all, Jenifer hadn't refined it yet, let alone allow the Divine Essence Stone recognize her as its master.
