Chapter 2059: Yellow Sand Land
Chapter 2059: Chapter 2059: Yellow Sand Land
One day later.
In the sky, a black streak paused slightly.
"Is this the Southern Range?"
The black streak was none other than Xiao Yi.
Xiao Yi stood in the air, surveying his surroundings.
The Central Region, as a vast area without laws and countless forces.
The division of its regions wasn’t based on clear standards.
After all, those disconnected wastelands were equally vast.
Thus, Xiao Yi paused for a moment.
Since leaving the Soul Domain, he had flown continuously for an entire day and night.
In terms of a direct linear traverse, crossing regions without stopping is not a long time.
Another point, originally, he was training elsewhere but was forcibly brought back to the Black Demon Territory by the Changtian Wine Demon.
With the power of the Changtian Wine Demon, crossing vast distances didn’t take long.
But if Xiao Yi were to return to his original training grounds, it would cost him considerable time.
So he didn’t return to his previous training area but instead came to the Southern Range.
"No, wait." Xiao Yi pondered for a moment, then nodded.
"This place is just the junction between the Central and Southern Range."
The gap between two big cities, already vast.
And the spaces between regions are even larger; some noted places reach thousands of miles of wastelands.
Here, at the junction of the Central Range and Southern Range, this large area belonging to neither direction is even more vast and astonishing.
According to his usual habits, he typically wouldn’t linger in these places.
Because these places are purely desolate, there is no necessary training here.
But he stopped now because he clearly saw many martial artists flying overhead.
Below, numerous martial artist teams were hastily passing through.
Ordinarily, desolate lands like these wouldn’t attract such attention from martial artists.
Xiao Yi descended stealthily, like an average martial artist, casually walking and listening to familiar conversations around him.
"Hey, did you hear?"
"A secret realm suddenly appeared in this area."
"Not really, whether it’s a secret realm is unknown; it might be an ancient great power’s cave mansion or a subspace."
"Of course, I knew; the moment I received the news, I rushed here."
"But I heard that the secret realm is extremely dangerous... barely a few days since it appeared, and all who entered perished."
"..."
Listening to the surrounding conversations, Xiao Yi understood the situation.
A secret realm suddenly emerged in this area, attracting many martial artists.
But as to what kind of secret realm, whether it is truly a secret realm, or what’s hazardous or mysterious within, all is unknown.
"Secret realm? Ancient cave mansion?" Xiao Yi slightly furrowed his brow, muttering to himself.
Such places are those where martial artists flock.
Because within them lie enormous opportunities.
"Quite lucky, indeed." Xiao Yi chuckled.
Perhaps, he too might gain something this time.
Following the surrounding martial artists, Xiao Yi walked slowly.
An hour later, the martial artists heading towards and gathering in this area increased.
In Xiao Yi’s perception, there were at least tens of thousands.
None were overly strong in Cultivation; all were from above the Central Region.
There were several with the strongest reaching the Mid Stage of Supreme Realm.
Others not lacking martial arts great powers... in the likes of the Saint Emperor Realm.
Some were young heavenly talents, others were reputed renowned martial artists.
Essentially, excluding those concealed forces’ teams, above the Central Region, it was truly hard to see martial artists at the Legendary Level.
The Supreme Realm was already the strong figures capable of dominating the Central Region openly.
"Hmm?" Xiao Yi’s heart perked up slightly.
Indeed, the world is full of coincidences.
He unexpectedly encountered an old acquaintance.
At the moment, he wore a large black robe, walking discreetly.
Amongst the martial artists, he was not particularly noticeable.
About tens of meters away, there was a young man with a cold expression.
The young man’s cold demeanor was clearly laced with an overbearing air.
Within several meters around the young man, no one dared approach.
The surrounding martial artists retreated, with wariness etched on their faces.
The young man was none other than the long-separated Tang Sha.
Tang Sha the Sandstorm, the current chief of Cangyun Academy.
During the Hundred Schools’ competition, Tang Sha was hailed as the most outstanding new disciple of Cangyun Academy, surpassing more senior core disciples and directly becoming the team captain of Cangyun Academy.
This alone was a testament to Tang Sha’s excellence.
Tang Sha, known as the Sandstorm, was certainly a decisive character.
During the debate at Heavenly Hidden Academy, everyone happily shared the precious Cangyun Essence Liquid, one sip equivalent to a low-grade spirit stone, chatting joyously.
Recalling that time, it still felt like yesterday.
Tang Sha was indeed a very good friend.
However, Xiao Yi did not plan to greet him.
In his current disguise, greeting him would render him unrecognizable to Tang Sha.
Xiao Yi sensed faintly.
Tang Sha’s Cultivation had reached the peak of the Saint Emperor Realm.
This level of Cultivation may seem unimpressive.
But among the younger generation, it was noteworthy, even remarkable.
After all, Cangyun Academy, ranked eighth among the ten Academic Palaces, was not as strong as the Five Great Academy, nor was it considered a powerful force.
Excluding those heavenly talents born into major forces, Tang Sha ranked as an eminent figure among first-class talents.
"Hm?" At this moment, Tang Sha seemed to sense something, casting a cold glance in Xiao Yi’s direction.
Traveling outside naturally required constant vigilance.
After not seeing him for a long time, Tang Sha had evidently become a formidable figure capable of standing alone.
Xiao Yi withdrew his perception, quietly smiling to himself.
Another hour later.
In front, a secret realm suddenly appeared in the eyes of all martial artists.
It was a huge, multi-kilometer spanning gigantic spatial rift.
Viewing from the outside, inside was clearly a subspace.
The scene inside caused mild furrowing of brows.
Xiao Yi realized, no wonder he encountered Tang Sha here.
Through the massive rift, one saw a sky full of yellow sand inside.
Inside, visible to the naked eye, was empty besides endless yellow sand, and extraordinarily potent sand attribute aura.
Clearly, it was a land of yellow sand inside.
Tang Sha the Sandstorm, true to his name, knowing of such a secret realm, naturally would come to explore.
"Yellow Sand Secret Realm?" Xiao Yi furrowed his brow.
In his perception, the aura gushing from the rift was not weak.
"It is a secret realm."
"Look, it has activated."
"Quickly, enter; the treasures are ours."
"..."
Martial artists, upon seeing the spatial rift instantly, showed ecstatic, no, feverish expressions.
One by one, silhouettes soared in the air, instantly entering the rift.
Xiao Yi furrowed his brows.
Tens of meters away, Tang Sha briefly paused his footsteps, evidently also vigilant.
However, seconds later, both of their figures flashed, entering the rift.
Spatial means were not experiences ordinary martial artists could witness, let alone in a lifetime.
Where spatial means exist is within some grand entities.
Or perhaps, in ancient cave mansions, secret realms, etc.
Upon seeing the massive spatial rift, martial artists realized this secret realm was undoubtedly extraordinary.
Inside, potentially unpredictable opportunities, countless treasures.
Inside the Yellow Sand Secret Realm.
Xiao Yi softly landed, treading lightly on the soft yellow sand.
Xiao Yi squinted, then crouched slightly, pinching the yellow sand beneath his feet.
The yellow sand was soft, and... very heavy.
Xiao Yi casually picked up a handful; his eyes slightly changed.
A small handful of yellow sand was unexpectedly as heavy as ten thousand pounds.
A grain of yellow sand was equivalent to a large stone in weight.
"Hmm? Such a strong bloodthirsty atmosphere." Xiao Yi’s eyes abruptly changed.
The bloody ambiance of such intensity, he had only sensed in very few and dangerous places.
...
Second update.
