Ye Zheng was surprised when he heard that word. He flew into the flying chariot and landed on the deck before he said, “I’ll send Yannan’s elders and disciples over.

Tuoba Sicheng only smiled in response. Then, he waved his hand.

“Understood,” the cultivator manning the helm said before steering the flying chariot away.

…

A month later…

Black clouds loomed over the mountain ranges and forests.

On top of a huge mountain.

The people of the Evil Sky Pavilion looked at the giant pillar shrouded in black fog in the distance. It was like a huge mountain that towered into the clouds.

“The Pillar of Destruction?”

No one of them had ever seen such a spectacular and huge pillar in their lives.

During their journey to Yu Zhong, they discovered that the closer they got to Yu Zhong, the more lush the trees were. The chaotic vitality energy was getting richer and richer; the strength of the fierce beasts was getting stronger and stronger.

This was the reason they were perched high on the mountain peak. This helped them avoid getting harassed by fierce beasts.

Lu Zhou stood with his hands on his back as he looked at the towering Pillar of Destruction. He was lost in his thoughts at this moment. This looked very similar to that dark scene in his memories. If the place was a little darker, then it would be almost the same.

In other words, Ji Tiandao had obtained at least one Great Void Seed from Yu Zhong, which used to be called the Great Desolate Land. It was where a Pillar of Destruction stood, meaning it was one of the most dangerous places. This place was also likely the target destination for many Great Void Expeditions.

At this moment, Lu Zhou asked, “Kong Wen… How much do you know about the Pillar of Destruction?”

Kong Wen bowed and said, “The four of us are only sectless cultivators in the green lotus domain. We risked our lives to break through to the Thousand Realms Whirling stage and to activate our Birth Charts by coming to the Unknown Land. Although we live here, we’ve always been careful to avoid dangerous places such as the ruins of Transient City, the Fire Phoenix Paradise, and the locations of the Pillars of Destruction. These are things we don’t even dare to think about; how could we know anything about the pillars? I apologize, Pavilion Master.”

Lu Zhou looked at the four brothers before he said, “You’ve performed very well recently. You can have your pick of the things we obtained during our journey…”

Kong Wen was briefly stunned by these words. When he regained his senses, he scratched his head and said, “This… It’s inappropriate…”

“What’s inappropriate? The Evil Sky Pavilion has always been clear with its rewards and punishments. You deserve it,” Lu Zhou said.

Kong Wen was overjoyed. He fell to his knees and expressed his gratitude. “Thank you, Pavilion Master!”

Similarly, Kong Wu, Zhang Qian, and Zhang Laosi fell to their knees and expressed their gratitude as well.

“Rise.”

“Yes, Pavilion Master.”

The four brothers rose to their feet before Kong Wen said, “I’ve only heard that the areas in the vicinity of the Pillars of Destruction are often shrouded by Great Void energy. Due to nourishment from the Great Void energy, most things there are very powerful. Whether it’s the fierce beasts or the trees, they’re superior to the ones in other places… As time passed, this place became a battlefield. Humans and beasts both fought for resources and land. It’s a never-ending cycle. The place will be peaceful until the next powerful fierce beasts or humans come along and fight. The locations of the Pillars of Destruction is known as a place of bloodshed in the cultivation world.”

Yan Zhenluo said, “People die for money, and birds die for food. It has always been this way…”

Kong Wen nodded. “That’s right.”

“When there was balance, Venerable Masters or those who are stronger are prohibited from moving around freely. However, now that there’s an imbalance… Just look over there…”

The people from the Evil Sky Pavilion looked down from the mountain peak.

Near the Pillar of Destruction, something red had appeared. It was not very eye-catching; if one did not look closely, one would have missed it.

“That’s the Red Line. It’s actually a mountain range made of red rocks. It goes on for about 100 miles. Anyway, the rule is that Venerable Masters or those who are stronger aren’t allowed to cross the Red Line,” Kong Wen continued to say, “Needless to say, with the imbalance, the rules no longer applied. I suggest that those with a weaker cultivation base stay with Lu Wu…”

Lu Zhou nodded before he turned around. “Did you hear that?”

“Yes.”

“Let’s go.”

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

Everyone flew onto Lu Wu’s back.

Previously, Lu Wu would tower over the trees. However, in this place, Lu Wu looked like a normal tiger strolling through the forest; it was less than a tenth of the height of the trees.

It was not just the trees. Everything in Yu Zhong could be described in two words: extremely large!

Lu Wu looked ahead and said, “I’ll slow down…”

Everyone nodded.

At this moment, Yu Shangrong tapped his toes lightly before he flew forward.

“Second Senior Brother?” Little Yuan ‘er looked at Yu Shangrong in confusion.

Yu Shangrong said with a smile, “My speed isn’t inferior to Lu Wu’s…”

Lu Zhou observed Yu Shangrong’s speed. Yu Shangrong was the only one who did not have any changes on the surface after cultivation near the Pillar of Impermanence. However, it did not mean there were no changes. He nodded before he said, “Your cultivation base has improved a lot…”

“Thank you, master.” Then, Yu Shangrong looked ahead and said, “I don’t know why, but these days, I have this feeling…”

Little Yuan’er asked curiously, “What feeling?”

Yu Shangrong smiled at Little Yuan’er and replied, “This feeling can only be felt; it can’t be explained…”

Little Yuan’er pouted and rolled her eyes.

At this moment, Yu Zhenghai said, “Junior sister, it’s important to pay attention to feelings when you cultivate to a certain stage. If it’s so easy to explain, doesn’t that mean everyone can be as majestic and amazing as your Second Senior Brother?”

Yu Shangrong nodded and said with a straight face, “I agree with Eldest Senior Brother…”

Yu Zhenghai smiled. “Recently, I also have this feeling…”

“Is that so? I thought Eldest Senior Brother would need some time before reaching this stage…” Yu Shangrong said.

Everyone. “…”

The duo could even brag and compete about things like this.

Swoosh!

Lu Wu suddenly came to a stop.

Everyone fell silent and became incredibly vigilant.

“Fierce beasts. Be careful.”

Soon after, a group of fierce beasts passed by in the distance. All of their sizes were huge.

All of a sudden, Kong Wu tossed out several talismans. The talismans fluttered in the air like butterflies and landed in a corner of the forest.

Upon seeing this, Kong Wu exclaimed excitedly, “Mystic life grass!”

Kong Wu was about to descend on the ground and go to the place where the talismans landed when Kong Wen said, “Don’t be rash!”

Kong Wu stopped moving immediately, realizing the error of his ways.

“Leave this to me,” Yu Shangrong said and flashed over to the talismans.

At the same time, a huge shadow appeared in the sky above Yu Shangrong. Following that, a huge tentacle slapped down from the sky, splitting the trees that stood in its way, toward Yu Shangrong.

“Second Senior Brother!” Little Yuan’er and Conch cried out.

Yu Shangrong did not even raise his head as he unsheathed the Longevity Sword.

Swoosh!

After swinging the sword with all his might, Yu Shangrong returned the Longevity Sword to its sheath again.

The lower part of the tentacle that had been severed fell to the ground as blood gushed out from the upper part of the tentacle.

Yu Shangrong reached out and harvested the mystic life grass. In just a blink of an eye, he returned to his original position.

Boom!

At the same time, a gigantic spider landed at the exact spot where Yu Shangrong had just left.

The huge spider glared at everyone with its many eyes.

“F*ck! Even a spider is this big! Are you kidding me?!” Mingshi Yin exclaimed.

Hiss!

The gigantic spider spat out white silk at this moment.

Yu Shangrong spun around and unsheathed his Longevity Sword.

Hundreds of thousands of energy swords flew out, severing the threads of white silk before stabbing toward the spider.

After a few breaths, the Longevity Sword returned to its sheath, leaving the chopped-up pieces of the spider on the ground.

Little Yuan’er pouted. “Second Senior Brother, you should let me deal with this kind of monster! It’s unfair that you get to fight all the time!”

Yu Shangrong said with a smile, “Spiders are poisonous. You shouldn’t underestimate them…”

At this moment…

Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!

Many green-clad cultivators flew over. They came to a stop and looked at the spider’s remains on the ground.

“Lu Wu?! Hurry up! Retreat!”

Upon seeing this, Lu Zhou frowned and said, “Capture them!”

“Yes, master..” Yu Shangrong flashed away, chasing after the green-clad cultivators.
