110. Chapter 110: Fishing in Muddy Waters

Not long after, Luo Yao found a village.

The villagers were not ordinary people; they were all cultivators, with the lowest at Qi Refining First Layer and the highest at Qi Refining Fifth Layer.

"Truly Pingzhou!"

Luo Yao sighed in admiration; this village was full of cultivators, its strength comparable to the Outer Sect of Xuanyuan Sect.

And this was just one village.

No wonder she had heard that the place called Xuanyuan Sect was closed off and didn't count as the Immortal Cultivation World; in the true Immortal Cultivation World, Foundation Establishment cultivators were everywhere.

Shaking off these jumbled thoughts, Luo Yao entered the village and asked someone for information.

The God-Devouring Ant ignored him, absorbed most of the Spirit Power from the giant hammer, then bit the hammer and quickly departed.

"Damn it!"

Moreover, Luo Yao had learned that the reason they said this place was close to Pingshui Cheng was because, without taking a detour, it took only ten days even for a Qi Refining cultivator.

And when Luo Yao saw the man's giant hammer fly apart, her eyes immediately lit up, and she quietly released the God-Devouring Ant.

Listening closely, one could hear the female cultivator cursing the man profusely; clearly, they knew each other, and the plot was melodramatic, seemingly involving the man betraying the female cultivator.

That meant Xiao Kui needed a suitable Dharma Treasure to unleash the full power of her technique, and the material required for that Dharma Treasure was Xuanjin Stone.

Therefore, Luo Yao considered helping the female cultivator, thereby obtaining that giant hammer.

It was neither far nor near from here.

Although Foundation Establishment cultivators were not everywhere, it was true that one in ten people was at the Foundation Establishment Stage.

Good news: this was indeed Pingzhou.

The man could not help but lower his head; after all, he had cultivated to the Foundation Establishment Stage with great difficulty and did not want to die.

In the end, a Foundation Establishment cultivator passed away just like that.

The Dharma Treasure held by the man was a giant hammer, with flames rising from the hammerhead, and those flames instantly melted the surrounding ice.

Regarding the Ancient Battlefield, Luo Yao could only gather limited information; truly useful information certainly would not be spread out, but regardless, she still chose to take a detour.

After staying in the town for one night, Luo Yao left.

After all, the opponent was at the Foundation Establishment Stage; how could she possibly intervene? Wasn't that asking for death?

So, she stayed in the shadows to watch the show.

The battle on the field grew increasingly intense; the giant hammer in the man's hand was knocked flying, and every part of his body was damaged, and the female cultivator was in the same state.

The female cultivator held a ring-shaped Dharma Treasure that released ice, freezing everything within three meters around her.

Luo Yao did not argue with the waiter about what it meant that it "only" took ten days for a Foundation Establishment cultivator.

For an ordinary Beast, facing an attack from a Foundation Establishment cultivator, it would naturally be dead beyond resurrection.

However, this thought was quickly discarded by her.

Whether at the Foundation Establishment Stage or the Golden Core Stage, none could escape.

Even flying over there as a Foundation Establishment cultivator would take only ten days.

Luo Yao clenched her fists, feeling somewhat excited in her heart; this was the true Immortal Cultivation World, only here could one witness a broader world, and only here could one go further.

"Yan Zi, I was wrong; do you really want to die together with me?"

What Luo Yao cared about was not this; she stared at the man's giant hammer, for she could see that Xuanjin Stone had been added to the hammer.

Boom!

Not long after walking, Luo Yao discovered two Foundation Establishment cultivators fighting.

Before the Spirit Power in the man's hand could strike the God-Devouring Ant, it was quickly absorbed by the ant; by the time the man slapped the ant's hard shell, it was already a Spirit Power-less attack from an ordinary person.

In short, the Ancient Battlefield held both opportunities and was fraught with dangers.

Unfortunately, the man managed to recall the giant hammer again and held it in his hand.

Cold sweat streamed down his forehead; he gripped his wrist tightly. Even though he had broken through to the Foundation Establishment Stage and his body's strength was sufficient, slapping a hard iron block still hurt, let alone the fact that the God-Devouring Ant was not an ordinary Beast.

The man instantly became furious, but the female cultivator would not let such a good opportunity slip away; the ring in her hand flew over quickly and encircled the man's neck.

This caused that area to be somewhat special.

Looking down, it was actually an ant the size of a fist, crawling on his giant hammer.

Bad news: the people here did not know the location of Taixu Sect, or rather, the location of Pingshui Cheng.

Obviously, the man's attributes countered the female cultivator's.

The battle between Foundation Establishment cultivators was a perfect opportunity to learn some experience.

This was mainly because the route from here to Pingshui Cheng passed through the Ancient Battlefield.

But regardless, that was under the condition of flying non-stop, day and night.

Fortunately, Luo Yao learned the location of a small cultivation town nearby.

She looked around, then entered a restaurant, ordered a table full of wine and dishes, gave the waiter a Spirit Stone, and learned the location of Pingshui Cheng.

Luo Yao was not interested in the melodrama between the two; what she cared about was their battle.

A hint of caution flashed in Luo Yao's eyes; she quietly retreated to a hidden corner to observe the situation of the battle ahead.

Luo Yao did not intend to rush over immediately; along the way, she could enjoy the scenery and perhaps find an opportunity to break through to Qi Refining Ninth Layer.

The giant hammer in the man's hand fell to the ground again; the man rushed over quickly, grabbed the hammer on the ground, but ended up touching a rough object.

The man instantly flew into a rage; a mere ant dared to touch his Dharma Treasure, so he slapped it, and the slap carried Spirit Power.

"Get lost!"

This was secondary; the important thing was that once one failed to leave within a specific time, one could never get out.

The Ancient Battlefield, as the name suggests, was a battlefield from the ancient era.

And among the techniques Luo Yao gave Xiao Kui, the suitable Dharma Treasure required Xuanjin Stone for its forging.

Unknown how long they waited.

Holding the map she had bought, Luo Yao hurried toward the direction of Pingshui Cheng.

Afterwards, she took out the Colored Cloud Kerchief to conceal her figure.

The fight ahead involved one man and one woman; that female cultivator's momentum was fierce and her moves sharp, yet the male cultivator handled them with ease, and when he counterattacked, he showed no mercy.

If it were Qi Condensation, it would take even longer.

"Hiss!"

Bang!

What does it feel like when an ordinary person's palm strikes an iron block?

At this moment, that man felt exactly that.

Unfortunately, the God-Devouring Ant was no ordinary Beast.

Though called a small town, in Luo Yao's eyes it was a great city; five-meter-high walls stretched continuously in all directions, and the crowds coming and going were almost all cultivators.

It was said that in that battle, countless cultivators died, including Immortals; besides Immortals, countless powerful figures such as those at the Tribulation Transcendence and Body Integration stages perished.

After all, since Senior Brother Wei had not received news of her departure, he would surely worry, so she must hurry to the Taixu Sect, then find a way to contact Senior Brother and report that she was safe.

Luo Yao could only have the God-Devouring Ant lie in ambush and slowly approach, continuing to seek an opportunity.

Entering that place felt as if one had truly stepped onto an ancient battlefield, an immersive experience.

That female cultivator remained unmoved, her strikes still sharp and fierce.

Not long after, Luo Yao arrived at the small town.

Moreover, after Luo Yao entered the city, she discovered that the number of Foundation Establishment Stage cultivators was even greater.

Nor did Luo Yao greedily snatch the Storage Bag of the Foundation Establishment Stage man; after quickly taking that giant hammer, she quietly departed.

However, she had not gone far before someone blocked her path.

It was precisely the female cultivator who had killed that man. (End of this chapter)
