A cluster of icy cold fog suddenly manifested.
The fog quickly dissipated to reveal a middle-aged cultivator.
He kept a long beard and wore a Daoist robe with a Blade by his hip with an air of superiority.
Drifting Moon Immortal Sect master, Zhao Wu Zong.
Of course, the real Zhao Wu Zong had already been killed, this was Gu Qing Shan who took his appearance and identity.
Gu Qing Shan paced back and forth in the wilderness, carefully searching for the Desolate world’s location.
——the Desolate world and Primordial Heaven Realm were always overlapping at a certain place, that was why creatures of these two worlds could travel back and forth between them.
Gu Qing Shan had to locate the overlapping location before he could enter the Desolate world.
Gu Qing Shan crouched down in front of a few rocks, picked them up and carefully observed them.
The rocks were filled with chaotic and powerful energy, they were the Desolate world’s demon stones.
“Seems like this is the place”
——according to the Golden Flame Divinity, when the Bygone Era’s humanity left, the worlds that they created also vanished. The only ones left were the Primordial Heaven Realm and the Primordial Wraith Realm.
As for the Desolate world, it wasn’t actually a complete world.
It was actually a temporary base that the Bygone Era humanity constructed before they left.
The Bygone Era humanity used a kind of unimaginable power to create this base next to the Gate of the World to make it convenient for them to study and explore the mysteries of the Gate.
After the Bygone Era humanity entered the Gate of the World, this place became empty.
After the Desolate race betrayed humanity, they took over this place.
Recalling the Golden Flame Divinity’s and the figure of light’s description, Gu Qing Shan felt that the word ‘took over’ wasn’t actually correct.
Because the Desolate race still hadn’t stopped exploring this world even now.
They haven’t managed to fully understand this place.
The only thing they did was use their power that far eclipses that of the Divinities and humanity to keep this place to themselves, not allowing any other race to take a single step inside.
Gu Qing Shan stood up next to the demon stones and crushed the Desolate coin.
Almost immediately, a powerful force appeared out of nowhere and pulled him into the void of space.
An artificial wilderness created from demon stones filled with immense but chaotic power.
The sky was completely dark except for the flashes of lightning that constantly arc across the sky.
Intense storm wind swept across the dark clouds in the sky, eternally howling under the influence of the chaotic power.
Gu Qing Shan silently appeared from the void of space.
He nimbly landed on the ground with the frost Blade in his hand.
There was no sound around him.
The intense stench of blood rushed into his nose.
Gu Qing Shan took a sniff.
It’s not the smell of human blood…
He released his inner sight and followed the direction of the stench.
Several hundred feet away, the bodies of countless Desolate soldiers laid scattered on the ground.
Gu Qing Shan flew over and carefully searched these corpses.
“Their flesh is already rotten… quite a bit of time ago…”
From the traces on their bodies, these monsters were most likely killed by various spells and sharp weapons.
In other words, the missing great cultivators followed this direction.
Xie Gu Hong was also among them.
——–if I follow Xie Gu Hong, I’ll be able to find out what exactly happened.
Without hesitation, Gu Qing Shan decided to follow their trail.
The chaotic power in the sky was so thick it was almost solid, and because of how eye-catching flying would be, Gu Qing Shan didn’t want to risk being noticed.
He quickly ran along the barren wilderness of nothing but demon stones.
An incense’s worth of time later.
Gu Qing Shan couldn’t do anything but conceal his presence and lay still inside a hole of rocks.
Innumerable amounts of different Desolate monsters were gathered in the area right in front of him.
The horde of Desolate monsters stretched as far as the eye could see, all with their eyes closed as if they were hibernating.
Looking past these Desolate monsters, further away in the wilderness, he could faintly see an enormous structure.
That is probably something the Bygone Era humans created.
Sadly, this place is full of Desolate monsters.
I can’t get through at all.
Gu Qing Shan paused briefly, picked up a demon stone at his feet, and threw it towards the general direction of the monster horde.
In mere seconds, a blurred image struck and decimated the stone.
The blurred image stopped in mid-air.
——-it was a mile-long tongue that came from a certain Desolate monster.
It was a huge frog with three large eyes.
Its croak echoed across the entire wilderness.
Almost immediately, all of the Desolate monsters woke up and looked around cautiously.
Several hundred Desolate monsters took flight to search for the source of the disturbance.
At this point, Gu Qing Shan had already activated his concealment formation and used a presence concealment technique to obscure his aura.
——-perhaps because these monsters weren’t too powerful, as they weren’t able to find anything.
The flying monsters also retracted their wings and landed back down.
They quickly closed their eyes and went back to sleep.
Gu Qing Shan waited for another long while till the world had returned to silence before he sighed in relief.
There were countless unknown and different monsters here.
It wasn’t possible for him to evade them and go through.
It wasn’t realistic to cut them down to open a path either.
If he used the God of Frost and Chill’s power or used the several hundred flying swords to perform his sword arts, the higher-ranked Desolate monsters——– or even the Lord of Desolation himself might be alarmed.
At this point, Gu Qing Shan felt a bit impressed with the Lord of Desolation.
No need to arrange any sort of complicated patrol or guards, just send enough monsters to fill the wilderness and no one would be able to enter that place.
——–so how do I go pass them now?
Gu Qing Shan fell into thought.
All of a sudden, a faint sign of spirit energy appeared and vanished not too far away from where he was.
Gu Qing Shan raised his eyebrows.
Only humans know how to use spirit energy.
Which means there are other people here!
Gu Qing Shan put the formation away and formed a simple hand seal.
Unlike when sword cultivators use their mind to control flying swords, telekinesis couldn’t intricately control a weapon and channel spirit energy through it, or perform powerful attacks through it without stopping.
——–telekinesis was simply a cultivator using his spirit energy to lift an object and move it around.
As Gu Qing Shan completed his seal, a piece of demon stone on the ground jerked slightly.
Gu Qing Shan immediately stopped.
The hand seal was dispelled.
A tiny bit of spirit energy was released in a split second before vanishing.
None of the Desolate monsters from afar noticed this.
But Gu Qing Shan felt that this should be enough.
——-a human great cultivator would definitely notice the spirit energy ripples created by the spell.
That was more than enough to prove that he was human.
——–during this era, with the Desolate monsters as their common enemy, humanity was very united, so as long as he could prove his identity, there shouldn’t be much trouble.
Gu Qing Shan stood silently inside the rock hole and waited.
A voice was transmitted to him through inner sight: “So it was sect master Zhao, please wait a moment”
Very quickly, the bottom of the rock hole Gu Qing Shan was standing in trembled a bit to reveal a bigger tunnel below.
A talisman that gave off a red glow came from inside the cave and spoke: “Brother Zhao, it’s not safe where you are. When the chaotic tides erupts, you’ll be discovered very easily, please come down here with us”
Gu Qing Shan replied: “Thank you”
Without hesitation, he jumped into the tunnel and followed the talisman until he reached an underground cave.
A white-haired old cultivator was already waiting for him at the entrance to the cave.
He first observed Gu Qing Shan, then sensed the spirit energy waves coming off his body before he truly relaxed.
After Gu Qing Shan came out of the tunnel, the white-haired old man put the talisman away and formed a hand seal towards the tunnel.
The tunnel closed off instantly as if it had never existed in the first place.
At the same time, another voice called out: “Sect master Zhao, why are you also here?”
Gu Qing Shan turned to look.
The man who asked that question had 7 flying swords silently floating behind him.
The Barren Cloud Palace Master, Xie Gu Hong was here.
