My path to immortality began with my posting to guard Dawancun.

Chapter 528 Enter
Tiannan Region
A small border town in the endless desert to the west.

Disguised as an ordinary young man, Shen Changchuan walked down the street, watching the crowds coming and going in the city, and the occasional figures flitting across the sky.

His gaze darkened slightly.

"I seem to remember that this endless desert, because it is all barren land, doesn't have many ordinary people, right?"

"How is this going?"

Shen Changchuan thought to himself.

To the west of this southern region lies an endless wilderness and desert.

The scope is so wide,

Even cultivators at the Nascent Soul stage would find it difficult to travel through the air alone.

the more important thing is,

In this barren land, large areas are so barren that it's hard to find even a blade of grass.

Not to mention spiritual energy.

This is a barren and desolate land.
There are very few forces that cultivate immortality.

At most, they are just some Qi Refining stage cultivators who couldn't make it in other parts of the Tiannan Region, who came to this sparsely populated and barren place to eat the leftovers that the major powers don't want.

But right now,
Putting aside the crowds coming and going on the street,
It was a Nascent Soul cultivator who transformed into a streak of light and swept past high above.
All of this is enough to show that something unexpected happened here that he was unaware of.

"Excuse me, sir, what's been going on around here lately? Why are so many people flocking here?"

Shen Changchuan grabbed a passerby at random and asked them for information.

"Damn it, young master, you're too kind! You've come to the right place to ask me, everyone knows my reputation as a gossipmonger!"

The man's face was initially full of impatience.

However, when he saw the mid-grade spirit stone in Shen Changchuan's hand, he immediately displayed an incredibly skillful face-changing technique.

After taking the spirit stone, biting into it, and confirming that it was genuine, he revealed an extremely fawning expression.

"Recently, there have indeed been many more cultivators from other places. This is because a secret realm appeared outside the desert not long ago."

According to that person's explanation,

Shen Changchuan roughly figured out the ins and outs.

The incident occurred six months ago.

It is said that at that time,

Suddenly, a beam of light shot into the sky from the depths of the endless desert, visible even from thousands of miles away.

So the news spread quickly.

As a result, more and more cultivators are flocking to this area, creating an unusually prosperous scene where this once dilapidated border town is now teeming with cultivators.

Even recently,

It is rumored that cultivators from outside the Southern Region have also arrived.
It was very prosperous.

"Ancient ruins have been discovered? Let's hope it's not the Xiangshan Sect ruins that have been found."

Shen Changchuan frowned slightly, a hint of worry rising in his heart.

Oversight!
Shen Changchuan sighed inwardly.

Although he received a gift from his elder brother, he learned the location of the Xiangshan Sect ruins and even obtained a token to enter.

But the problem is,

The ruins of the Xiangshan Sect's mountain gate don't just stand there.
We're waiting for you to come in alone!
The ruins are right there.

I simply had an advantage over others.

While he was busy with other things,
Others are also searching for the Xiangshan Sect ruins, looking for related clues.

Those prodigies from beyond the realms won't wait for you to complete the main storyline before taking any action, unlike the NPCs in the game's background.

Thanks to their efforts in searching,

It's not impossible to find some clues.

and,

The very first rumor,

Adding to the reactions of those powerful forces from other realms,
All of this undoubtedly proves that this is not just a rumor.
but,

During that period of time,
I simply don't have the time to go.

Whether it's the need to refrain from making any moves under the watchful eyes of others, or the opportunity presented by the Spirit Transformation Pool later on,

He simply didn't have the right time.

Thinking of this,

Shen Changchuan's slight regret had completely disappeared.

"Whether it is or not, let's go first!" "In the end, it's just a matter of dealing with whatever comes our way."

Shen Changchuan adjusted the sand-proof straw hat on his head.
He strode towards the outskirts of the city.

At this time,

The man who had answered Shen Changchuan earlier turned and disappeared into a dark alley.

I walked quickly past several low eaves and entered a dilapidated courtyard.

"Boss, there's a fat sheep!"

Yellow sand stretches endlessly,

The hurricane swept through, unleashing a massive sandstorm.

On a sand dune,
Shen Changchuan expressionlessly released the head of a corpse whose face was filled with fear, letting it fall limply to the ground.

If you look closely, you can recognize that this person is the same person Shen Changchuan asked for directions from in the small town earlier!

And at this moment,
Around,
Several other corpses of varying heights and builds lay scattered on the ground.

What a waste of emotion!

Shen Changchuan shook his hand, his expression somewhat unfriendly.

in fact,

When we were in the city,
With his powerful divine sense, he perceived the man's strange behavior.

Out of curiosity, I used my divine sense to track it.

turn out,

That guy actually thought he was easy prey and even went to gather a group of accomplices to try and kill him.

Considering that he didn't know much,
Shen Changchuan simply slowed down and let them catch up.

then,

With their invincible strength, they were completely crushed.

Furthermore, they employed soul-searching techniques to search for information within their minds.

It's a good way to make use of waste.

Get more detailed information.

just,

To Shen Changchuan's disappointment,

This group of people hadn't been in this border town for long either; they'd only arrived about a month before him.

The information we received was mostly general, widely circulated information from the general public.

As for the specifics of the ruins that emerged from the depths of the desert, they knew absolutely nothing.

All that is known is that the ruins seem to be extraordinary.

There has already been a significant influx of cultivators from outside the Nascent Soul realm.

As for those at the Qi Refining stage...
Most of them went and haven't come back.

It's unclear whether they were sealed off from going out by those powerful figures in the Nascent Soul Realm, or whether they were all killed.

As for those at the Out-of-Body Realm level, although some returned, they mostly left in a hurry and didn't linger.

That level of existence was beyond their reach.
In that situation full of unknowns,

They dared not act rashly.

So they stayed in this small border town for more than a month without taking any action.

This is why,
This is why this small border town has gathered so many cultivators at the Qi Refining Realm.

"Forget it, let's just go there first."

Shake his head,
Shen Changchuan did not intend to waste any more time here.

He transformed into a streak of light and soared into the sky, disappearing into the depths of the desert.

A few days later,
According to the map provided by Shen Chong,

Shen Changchuan's figure landed on an unremarkable hill.

"Fortunately, this entrance isn't located where those ruins were found."

Seeing that no one was around,

Shen Changchuan breathed a sigh of relief.

Take out the token, activate the magic.
in an instant,
A void vortex appeared in the empty space ahead.

Shen Changchuan was overjoyed.
I stepped into it.
