Chapter 130: Outside the Desolate Ancient Forbidden Land
Zhang Xuan: 【@I want to create an Immortal Realm, Big Brother Qingdi, are you there? I want to make a trip to Beidou. Currently, my cultivation has hit a bottleneck, and I want to go to Beidou to gain experience and look for relevant weapon materials. However, Beidou is vast and magnificent, and there are too many Extreme Dao Imperial Weapons left behind by Desolate Ancient Families and Great Emperors. I am afraid of the high risks and want to find some backing. I wonder if I could be placed under the protection of the Demon Race?】
I want to create an Immortal Realm: 【No problem!】
Qingdi's reply was quite brief, and Zhang Xuan's eyes lit up the moment he saw it; hope immediately emerged.
He already had a complete plan and method in his mind.
Only a moment later, Qingdi asked with slight curiosity.
I want to create an Immortal Realm: 【Can you really travel across the Universe right now? That is still impossible for you at the moment, isn't it?】
Zhang Xuan: 【My strength and realm certainly cannot achieve inter-universal travel. It is through the Chat Group. The Chat Group can teleport Group Members to places they have been before; it is very easy. You have stayed in Beidou for a very long time, and you have basically traveled across the entire Universe, so it will not be too difficult for me to go to Beidou; it will be very easy.】
Zhang Xuan responded earnestly, and the other Group Members were slightly surprised.
Xiao Meng who has returned to secular life: 【This is somewhat like the Legendary Realm where one is omnipresent and can reach anywhere; it is truly interesting.
It is a pity that my time is tight and my tasks are heavy right now, so I dare not wander around, fearing that I might attract Anan's attention. I can only walk around a bit after I shake off Anan's blockade later.】
Qiao Feng: 【I envy you for being able to walk around. At present, I cannot free myself; I must establish a Huaxia dynasty that truly dominates the world and restore the glory of my Great Han and Great Tang before I will consider going to other worlds!】
Xiong Ba: 【Me too!】
Luo Ji: 【You all should work hard. If you have any questions or difficulties, you can ask me. I have a think tank here from a world to help you solve your problems. Please be sure to be quick and build a modernized strong nation with high speed, high quality, and low cost.
Having a world as a backing and a powerful empire established by you should be worthy of your ambitions.
At the same time, they will also provide you with great assistance in the future. Whether you go to other worlds to become an Immortal or a God, or bring your entire world to Ascension together, it will be an unprecedented feat.
We are waiting for your success and waiting for your good news. I hope that one day I can see you in the Three-Body world.】
Qiao Feng: 【I will definitely exhaust my efforts to restore the beautiful mountains and rivers of my Huaxia and rebuild the magnificent world of my Huaxia!】
Xiong Ba: 【The grand cause of hegemony is at this moment. The fighting and killing in the Jianghu are too petty; the former me had too small a perspective!】
Luo Ji: 【Let us encourage each other!】
Seeing this, the corners of Zhang Xuan's mouth twitched wildly. He always had the feeling of being at work in a company where his boss was painting a big picture for him to work hard to achieve success, so that the boss could get promoted and get rich.
Luo Ji was giving him this strong feeling right now.
He had PUA'd or, in other words, painted a big picture for Qiao Feng and Xiong Ba so well that both of them were now full of confidence. Both were men of great talent and bold vision, and they were full of spirit.
At this very moment, their blood was boiling.
"However, it cannot be said that it is entirely painting a big picture. The methods and directions provided by Luo Ji are all correct, and he is not taking too much advantage of Xiong Ba and Qiao Feng; he is truly elevating them and letting them write an unprecedented and magnificent achievement.
Presumably, this kind of big picture is one that everyone wants to eat, after all, if this picture is painted, it is truly possible to realize it."
Zhang Xuan took a careful look, especially at the five thousand years of Chinese history, among which the history of the earlier parts was introduced relatively briefly.
Only when the Northern Song and Southern Song were destroyed and the Yuan Dynasty was established was it described in considerable detail.
At the same time, detailed comparative data was written in the historical part, showing that Huaxia led the world for thousands of years and had always been in the lead, only falling into a backward state after the modern era.
Then there was the modern and contemporary part; that part was both very heartbreaking and made one feel that the future was incomparably bright. It was that part that deeply stimulated Qiao Feng.
It was also what was proposed in the modern and contemporary part that made Qiao Feng deeply identify with and be attracted to the Chinese nation, regardless of high or low status, and without discussing other various ethnicities.
It was just that, like the Great Han and Great Tang, those who identified with Huaxia civilization were people of Huaxia. Qiao Feng was deeply shocked by this point and was also willing to work hard for it.
"This is probably a document written by some historian. It is so inspiring; maybe it even referenced many political documents. This guy has substance; I can only say that the people around Luo Ji are still very strong."
Zhang Xuan felt very identified with it after reading it. Huaxia has stood at the peak since ancient times, only falling behind for a short period. As one of us, now that there is an opportunity and ability to change it, why not try? My great Huaxia is invincible in the world.
For a moment, Zhang Xuan even had the urge to change the current environment, but then he carefully pondered his surroundings and discovered that the Earth Huaxia of this world had already truly risen, and it was not his turn to change it.
"Hmm, then never mind!"
After sighing, Zhang Xuan made up his mind.
The void seemed to flicker, and the power of time changed. With the help of the Chat Group's ability, in the next instant, Zhang Xuan had already appeared in the Eastern Wasteland of Beidou, and it was not very far from the Desolate Ancient Forbidden Land, near the Yan State.
Beidou is said to be an ancient star, but its area is much larger than Earth's. Just a small country next to the Desolate Ancient Forbidden Land has a population of tens of millions, or even more.
And there are countless such small countries, so many that it is terrifying.
Everyone's clothing and attire have the style of ancient people, and their accents and corresponding characters are very different from those on Earth.
But there are also many similarities, just like ancient China before it entered modernization, if there are similar points.
And not far away, ancient trees towered into the sky.
Rare beasts were everywhere, and the vegetation was the most lush and grew the most wantonly, clearly distinct from the surrounding areas, showing a clear difference.
There was no need for anyone else to introduce it; Zhang Xuan could distinguish at a glance that the place where the vegetation was lush and various Medicine Kings could be observed with the naked eye was the Desolate Ancient Forbidden Land.
The Divine Power flowing inside the divine spring allowed Zhang Xuan to travel through the air, turning into a rainbow light, flying to a high place, and looking at the Huanggu Jinqu from a distance. He immediately saw it more clearly; there were small mountains scattered in the Huanggu Jinqu in sequence.
And at the very center surrounded by the nine small mountains, in the deepest part of the Huanggu Jinqu, was a large hole like a bottomless Abyss.
When looking from afar, Zhang Xuan vaguely saw figures in ancient attire inside the Abyss looking back at him with hollow and lifeless eyes, which shocked his heart, and he immediately descended.
This place is not Earth and is no longer a safe zone; danger is everywhere. Although there is no precedent for figures in the Huanggu Jinqu coming out to kill people, Zhang Xuan still felt instinctive unease in his heart. After all, the figures who died in the Huanggu Jinqu were all famous big shots.
Not to mention that he was practicing the secret technique of the Ruthless Great Emperor, the Indestructible Heavenly Art.
Zhang Xuan did not think that the Ruthless Great Emperor would remember this master-disciple relationship. After all, the Ruthless Great Emperor never cared about these things. The only thing the Ruthless Great Emperor cared about was her brother. The famous saying of the Ruthless Great Emperor, "Not to become an Immortal, just to wait for your return in the red dust," made the Ruthless Great Emperor's talent and passion truly unparalleled, but it also truly indicated what kind of existence the person the Ruthless Great Emperor cared about most was.
That was the world's top brother-obsessed person; the Ruthless Great Emperor would not care about anyone else.
At the very least, Zhang Xuan was very sure that if he dared to go deep into the Huanggu Jinqu, he would definitely not be able to come out, regardless of whether he practiced the Swallowing Heaven Demonic Art or the Indestructible Heavenly Art.
The only person in the whole world who could walk into the Huanggu Jinqu and then come out intact and get quite a few benefits was Ye Fan.
Others, even the Ancient Supreme in the Forbidden Zone, might not necessarily get a good deal.
"Phew, the Essence of this world is actually so rich; it really makes one feel comfortable!"
Landing back on the earth, Zhang Xuan finally had the time to sense the Heaven and Earth Essence of Beidou, and as soon as he sensed it, a look of surprise appeared on his face.
Compared to Earth, Beidou had also fallen into the Post-Desolate Ancient Era, with a lack of Heaven and Earth Essence, but it was much better than Earth.
Practicing on Earth before was like looking for water in a desert, as difficult as ascending to heaven; now, he was in an oasis, and life was too wonderful.
After sensing it slightly, Zhang Xuan felt that all the Daos of the heavens were manifested before him, as if he could understand and absorb them by sensing them at will.
It was completely different from the cultivation method on Earth that was as difficult as ascending to heaven.
There was a feeling of lightness over his entire body, as if a layer of shackles had been cast off.
Just in this moment of breathing, Zhang Xuan felt his cultivation realm wanting to continue surging upward.
This caused a look of surprise and joy to involuntarily appear on Zhang Xuan's face.
"The Origin I swallowed in the Chang Sheng Jie was indeed thick and useful enough; the foundation I have accumulated now is truly extraordinary.
My strength and realm are uncontrollably surging upward, and it is very easy to break through. The one I remember most clearly and can best compare myself to should be that descendant of the not-Heavenly Emperor who emerged in Purple Mountain, later known as Tianhuangzi, who claimed to have the number one bloodline talent and potential."
Of course, Zhang Xuan considers that there is still a certain gap between his own talent and potential and that of Tianhuangzi.
After all, Tianhuangzi swallowed a Creation Spring Eye in this Universe, and his subsequent potential is unimaginably strong; his breakthroughs in the early stages were like eating and drinking, and his later breakthroughs were also shockingly fast.
If Zhang Xuan were to compare his potential with him, he would certainly still be lacking quite a bit.
Simply speaking, the thickness of his Origin is already considered top-tier, but having Origin alone is not enough; to transform Origin into strength, it still requires a long period of cultivation.
"He has a father, and a father who ranks at the top in history in terms of talent and strength. Comparing myself directly to him is still a far cry. Curb arrogance and rashness, curb arrogance and rashness."
Zhang Xuan exhaled lightly, not feeling any anxious emotions.
He is very good at self-consolation; his "Ah Q spirit" is fully maxed out.
"Beidou still holds considerable danger for me. There is no need to rush to find the Demon Race right now. The first thing to do is to learn the language and writing here, integrate into the environment here, and try not to let my modern lifestyle and habits appear too abrupt."
Taking a deep look at the Huanggu Jinqu, Zhang Xuan turned around and returned to the realm of mortals.
Most of the time, one needs to live cautiously, but in the mortal kingdom, there is no need to be that cautious.
Zhang Xuan took the initiative to go to the capital of the mortal kingdom, then studied at the top academy in the capital; from beginning to end, he normally followed a group of people to read and learn characters.
But with the laws of the Eight-Nine Profound Art's "Heaven and Man as One," he walked among the crowd and no one cared about him, as if he were invisible in everyone's eyes.
No one realized that Zhang Xuan was staying here, and during this time of study, Zhang Xuan was not idle either.
The capital of the mortal kingdom was bustling with traffic and people, all mortals, but that did not mean there were no cultivators; from time to time, cultivators would transform into rainbows and fly over from above.
Sometimes, some cultivators would stay in the mortal kingdom for a while, and recently it has been more frequent; besides daily exchanges, corresponding news circulated in the capital of Yan State.
"The Lingxu Grotto-Heaven has been sealed; no one else can get in."
"Hmph, the Desolate Ancient Family and the Holy Land are being too overbearing. They ate the meat and took the big chunks; can't they even let us drink some soup?"
"Heh! They have always been this overbearing. What can you do? If you dare to speak ill of them in front of them, they will strike you into ashes with a rainbow light on the spot!"
"Even if they strike me into ashes, I still have to say it. They don't treat us like people at all. That is the grotto-abode of a generation of Demon Race Great Emperor; anything that leaks out could change our destiny. Maybe in the future, we would all have the chance to become a Great Power. As a result, they used a great formation to seal the entire Lingxu Grotto-Heaven. Heh, I heard quite a few people died..."
Once Zhang Xuan heard this, he understood roughly what had happened during this period.
The Demon Emperor's tomb in the Lingxu Grotto-Heaven had emerged, attracting the attention of countless families and Holy Lands; even figures from far away directly used fields to cross borders, just wanting to get a share of the spoils in this grand feast.
"But who could have known that the owner of the tomb you are robbing is still alive, and living very well? Now that you are all so arrogant and domineering, if you are ever held accountable in the future, you will be finished."
Zhang Xuan chuckled.
He felt it was quite interesting. After staying in the capital of Yan State for nearly half a month, he had learned the local customs and clothing habits perfectly; at the very least, he looked no different from the locals.
Moreover, he had not been completely idle these days. Although the Lingxu Grotto-Heaven had been sealed by the Desolate Ancient Holy Land and the families, figures heading to that area were still coming in an endless stream.
Not only were there Human Race cultivators, but there were also a great many Demon Race cultivators.
After all, that was the tomb of a Demon Race Great Emperor. The Demon Race, truly believing that obtaining even a scale or a claw could allow them to transform into a True Dragon, were crazily rushing toward that side. Zhang Xuan had already spotted several Demon Race members, and now that he was prepared, he was naturally ready to take a trip to the ancestral lands of the Demon Race.
