Chapter 285: The Mysterious Yin Ancient Ravine

~8 min read 1,550 words

Wang Jianqiang stood in the air, his gaze sweeping over the crowd.

Discovering one figure missing from the group, he asked in surprise, "Where is Nancheng Kong? Is he not with you all?"

Hearing Wang Jianqiang's voice ring out once more.

Bai Wuqing snapped out of his daze and pointed with a strange expression at the figure embedded in the earth.

Wang Jianqiang:...

A moment later.

Nancheng Kong was pried out.

Sitting on a small rock, he rubbed his body while looking at Wang Jianqiang with resentment.

"Boss, that slap of yours was too ruthless; I'm almost disfigured."

Wang Jianqiang was speechless.

Could he be blamed for this?

He had only just arrived when a pig-headed man with a lecherous face lunged at him; slapping him away was a completely instinctive reaction.

Besides...

You are already a pig-head now, damn it.

Being disfigured is the same as getting plastic surgery.

He did not take the bait, but instead changed the subject, "Your sister has been here?"

"Eh? How did you know, Boss?" Nancheng Kong scratched his head.

Wang Jianqiang looked at him silently, "I could tell."

Sensing Wang Jianqiang's strange gaze, Nancheng Kong seemed to realize something, and his expression stiffened.

Fearing that Wang Jianqiang would reveal information that would cause him to lose face, he hurriedly changed the topic.

"Did you come specifically to save us, Boss?"

Wang Jianqiang nodded, "When I entered the Desolate Realm, I met a Cultivator named Liu Changqing, and he told me the news that you had been captured."

"But it seems I arrived a step too late."

Nancheng Kong smiled smugly, "Just a minor matter, not worth Boss taking action personally; my sister coming was enough."

Wang Jianqiang smiled, "Who captured you?"

"Ji Zhangkong."

Before Nancheng Kong could continue, Bai Wuqing suddenly interjected.

Ji Zhangkong?

Wang Jianqiang raised an eyebrow.

Isn't that the name of Ji Ruan's older brother?

So that's how it is.

No wonder he would deliberately target him.

He felt not the slightest surprise that Ji Zhangkong knew he had killed Ji Ruan.

Back then, he had been in a rush to support Mu Lingxi and the others, and he had made no attempt to conceal his tracks along the way.

It would be easy for some Cultivators with special methods to deduce it.

"Boss, there is something I must tell you."

Just then, Bai Wuqing's voice came again.

Wang Jianqiang's expression shifted, "What is it?"

"Fairy Tu has entered the dead zone, the Mysterious Yin Ancient Ravine," Bai Wuqing said with a grave expression.

Hearing Bai Wuqing's words, Wang Jianqiang's expression darkened.

Within the Desolate Realm, there are many dangerous places.

But while dangerous places are perilous, many people still dare to venture into them for the sake of the resources and opportunities within.

However, a dead zone is different.

A so-called dead zone is, in fact, a place of certain extinction.

Once an examinee breaks in, there is no chance of survival.

To this day, there has never been word of anyone returning safely after entering a dead zone.

It is a true Forbidden Land.

No one dares to step inside.

"How could she have broken into a dead zone?" Wang Jianqiang's brows furrowed tightly.

"It is because of Ji Zhangkong."

Bai Wuqing said, "After Ji Zhangkong learned that his younger brother had been slain by you, he had been wanting to take revenge."

"But Boss rarely enters the Desolate Realm, so he never gave him the opportunity."

"In order to lure Boss into showing himself, he specifically inquired about everyone related to Boss, attempting to capture these people to bait Boss into walking into his trap."

"We were caught off guard by his premeditated plan and captured by him."

"Not long after capturing us, he discovered Fairy Tu's tracks and went personally to seize her."

"Fairy Tu was no match for Ji Zhangkong, and unwilling to be captured by him, she fled all the way to the Mysterious Yin Ancient Ravine."

"At the time, we were in Ji Zhangkong's team and saw with our own eyes Fairy Tu jump down into the Mysterious Yin Ancient Ravine."

Hearing Bai Wuqing's words, a cold glint flashed in Wang Jianqiang's eyes.

After a moment of silence, he suddenly asked, "That Ji Zhangkong, he wasn't killed by Nangong Yu, was he?"

"No, he had a life-saving item on him and escaped," Bai Wuqing shook his head.

Wang Jianqiang laughed upon hearing this.

"Very good."

"Such an interesting person must not be allowed to die easily."

Wang Jianqiang's smile was kind, and no joy or anger could be heard in his voice.

But Bai Wuqing and the others, who knew Wang Jianqiang's personality well, all trembled in unison upon hearing this laughter.

They didn't even dare to breathe loudly.

A moment later.

The smile on Wang Jianqiang's face faded, and he looked at Bai Wuqing and the others, "Go do whatever you need to do; I must make a trip to the Mysterious Yin Ancient Ravine."

"You are going to the Mysterious Yin Ancient Ravine?"

Hearing Wang Jianqiang's words, Bai Wuqing and the others were startled.

"The Mysterious Yin Ancient Ravine is filled with high-level Desolate Beasts, and it is also saturated with a large number of Ancient Remnant Arrays; it can be said that there is a crisis at every step."

"Boss, although your strength is very high, it is still too dangerous to rashly break into that place."

Hearing the voices of the group, Wang Jianqiang smiled, "No matter, I have my own measure."

He had long since gained an understanding of the various Forbidden Lands in the Desolate Realm.

In the Desolate Realm, the more dangerous a place is, the more benefits it holds.

A Forbidden Land is a restricted area, but it is also a place of the greatest opportunity.

Even without the matter of Tushan Youyou, he had long since formed the idea of entering a Forbidden Land.

Now it was just a bit earlier than planned.

As for the crises within the Forbidden Land.

To him, they really didn't count for much.

The primary source of the crises in the Forbidden Land was the dense Ancient Forbidden Restrictions.

Under his Fiery Eyes and Golden Gaze, they could be completely ignored.

As for the Desolate Beasts.

In the entire Desolate Realm, the strongest Desolate Beast was only equivalent to a Nascent Soul Stage Perfection Cultivator.

Unless a whole group appeared at once, they could not pose much of a threat to him.

Hearing Wang Jianqiang's confident words, Bai Wuqing and the others were stunned.

Although they did not know why Wang Jianqiang had such great confidence, they tactfully did not continue to ask.

Seven days later.

Wang Jianqiang appeared at the edge of a steep mountain ravine.

He looked into the ravine.

The mountain walls were nearly vertical, pitch black, and bottomless.

He did not hesitate and leaped down.

He flew down toward the ravine.

Just after he had flown down nearly ten thousand zhang, he seemed to pass through an invisible membrane of air.

His vision blurred.

When his vision recovered, he discovered that he had already arrived in a gloomy space.

"I didn't expect this Mysterious Yin Ancient Ravine to actually be an independent small world."

Wang Jianqiang looked around, took out the Sound Transmission Talisman, and checked it.

It did not generate a response with Tushan Youyou's Sound Transmission Talisman.

Either Tushan Youyou was too far away from him, or she was currently in a special region where the sensing of the Sound Transmission Talisman was blocked.

The worst result was that Tushan Youyou had fallen and the Sound Transmission Talisman was damaged.

Thinking of this, he fell silent.

Whoosh~

Just at this moment, the sky darkened.

A huge figure suddenly swooped down from the sky.

Wang Jianqiang looked up.

A bird-shaped Desolate Beast came into view.

This Desolate Beast's strength was not weak; the fluctuations radiating from its body were enough to rival a Nascent Soul Middle Stage Cultivator.

However, to Wang Jianqiang.

This kind of strength was still far from enough to look at.

Dharma Heaven and Earth!

Pure Yang Power!

Two great Talent Divine Abilities were activated, and he smashed out a punch.

Bang~

This bird-shaped Desolate Beast was instantly blown to pieces.

He beckoned with his palm.

A round bead flew into his palm; this object was precisely a Desolate Bead.

The hard currency within the Desolate City.

At the same time.

A strand of Desolate Qi flew over and merged into his body.

He flipped his palm and stored the Desolate Bead into his Space Ring.

Golden Light flickered within his eyes.

He began to scout the surroundings.

Two hours later.

The terrain nearby was completely clear to him.

This was a long and narrow space.

The position he was currently in was one end of the space.

Searching along this space toward the other end.

Perhaps he would be able to find Tushan Youyou.

Thinking of this, he no longer wasted time.

He flew up into the air.

He flew toward the front at the fastest speed.

This Mysterious Yin Ancient Ravine was filled with crises, and with Tushan Youyou's strength, it was very difficult to survive here.

He had to find her as quickly as possible.
