Battle Through the Heavens: I can solidify the talents of all things

Chapter 57, The Battlefield of the Fighting Saints: A Mysterious White-Haired Old Man! [Seeking First Subscription] (5/10)

Looking around, the space was so vast that it seemed to stretch to the horizon, but everywhere there were shocking traces of battle!

A colossal crater resembling the imprint of a giant's hand; mountain peaks neatly sliced ​​open by invisible blades; vast expanses of ground scorched into a glassy state by extreme heat —

These marks, though having endured countless ages, still exude a chilling residual power, causing the flow of Dou Qi within Xiao Qing's body to become somewhat sluggish and obstructed.

"Where is this place?"

Xiao Qing immediately suppressed the shock in his heart and asked in a deep voice in his mind.

"Where is Queen Medusa?!"

Xiao Qing suddenly realized that Queen Medusa, who had been swept into the spatial rift along with him, was not by his side.

This discovery made Xiao Qing's heart tighten, but she quickly forced herself to calm down.

Xiao Qing himself is currently in an unknown and dangerous situation, and it is uncertain whether he can protect himself, let alone look for others.

Perhaps we can find Queen Medusa later, but for now, we can only take care of ourselves.

The illusory image of the old doctor's soul also appeared, his expression more solemn than ever before.

Xiao Qing carefully observed the dilapidated architectural ruins, half-buried in the sand. The style of those buildings was ancient and unique, and they were definitely not found in the Dou Qi Continent today.

"If I'm not mistaken—"

The old apothecary's expression was also filled with horror, and even his voice was a little hoarse.

"This must be an independent mini-world created by an ancient Battle Saint using their boundless power in the void!"

A Battle Saint-level expert already possesses the ability to create heaven and earth, and it is not impossible for them to create a small world as their foundation or a place of seclusion.

The Starfall Pavilion, which Yao Lao and Feng Zun Zhe established in the Star Realm, was located in a similar small world.

"However—judging from its current state, this small world was probably a brutal battlefield in ancient times, where it witnessed an earth-shattering, unparalleled war!"

The old doctor's gaze swept over the horrific remnants of the battle, and he spoke in a heavy tone.

"Moreover, this space is extremely unstable, and its energy is slowly leaking away and collapsing. It seems that it will not be able to hold on for many more years before it completely collapses and returns to nothingness."

"The battlefield of Dou Sheng powerhouses —"

Xiao Qing repeated softly, her heart trembling violently.

Those experts at that level were still far beyond Xiao Qing's reach.

Xiao Qing never expected that being swallowed by that strange spatial rift would lead him to such a desperate situation.

Just then, Xiao Qing's gaze was drawn to a pile of ruins in the distance.

Deep within those ruins, a faint, dark red light flickered.

The light wasn't dazzling, but it possessed a strange magic that seemed to draw people's attention, making Xiao Qing involuntarily feel an urge to get closer and find out more.

"Teacher, did you see that? There's a red light emanating from over there—"

Xiao Qing's eyes narrowed slightly as he pointed in that direction.

"I saw it," Yao Lao said, his voice tinged with obvious wariness.

"Be careful, this place is full of eeriness. That red light seems to be able to directly affect the minds of living beings. It is definitely not a good place."

Xiao Qing tried to extend his soul power outwards, but was horrified to discover...

My initial spiritual perception was greatly suppressed here.

The detection range was forcibly compressed to less than ten miles in radius; beyond that, everything was a blur, as if blocked by an invisible wall.

Xiao Qing took a deep breath of the rotten air and forced himself to calm down.

He circulated his battle qi to form a faint protective layer around his body, then took a step and carefully walked towards the direction where the red light was flashing.

Beneath my feet lay soft sand and gravel, making a "rustling" sound that was particularly jarring in the absolute silence.

After walking for about fifteen minutes, the outline of a building gradually became clear in front of us.

It turned out to be a palace entirely constructed of some kind of pure white jade!

Although it was dilapidated and the walls were covered with spiderweb-like cracks.

The magnificent roof has mostly collapsed, but its former solemnity and sacred grandeur can still be vaguely discerned.

It formed an extremely strong, even eerie, contrast with the surrounding desolate and barren environment!

Xiao Qing walked closer step by step, and finally stopped abruptly when he was about a hundred feet away from the white palace.

An extremely strong sense of unease instantly spread throughout Xiao Qing's body like ice water, making his hair stand on end!

Something's really wrong!

In this desolate and lifeless world of destruction, there stands a ruined building that still exudes a sense of "holiness".

A palace of breath.

It's like placing a flawless work of art amidst scorched earth and bones; it looks so abrupt, discordant, and out of place.

There's a problem————

Xiao Qing's heart pounded, and a sharp alarm sounded from the depths of her soul.

"Could this be... an illusion?"

Xiao Qing immediately focused his mind, his powerful soul force acting like the most precise scanner, meticulously perceiving every inch of the surrounding space.

Sure enough, Xiao Qing soon discovered some subtle distortions and inconsistencies!

The fluctuations in space were somewhat rigid, and the flow of energy carried a certain artificially woven sense of regularity. Although the scene before us was realistic, it always gave people a sense of falseness, as if "there was a veil between us."

The moment Xiao Qing saw through the illusion, a mysterious voice, brimming with barely concealed excitement yet striving for peace and kindness, suddenly and directly echoed in the depths of his mind: "After waiting for years—through the long passage of time—in the end—someone has finally come to this place!"

As the sound appeared, the entrance to the dilapidated, pristine white palace came into view.

The air began to distort, and light and shadow converged.

It quickly coalesced into the phantom of an elderly man with white hair, wearing a white robe, and with a long beard reaching his chest.

The white-haired old man had a kind face and gentle eyes.

With a smile of relief on his face, as if he were seeing a long-lost relative, he gazed at Xiao Qing with "goodwill".

"Young friend, your ability to traverse the spatial turbulence and arrive here is not only a matter of fate with me, but also a connection with the heritage of this place!"

The voice of the white-haired old man's phantom was alluring, carrying a strange power that calmed the mind, as he spoke slowly.

"Come, follow me in and receive this supreme inheritance sealed for eternity! It will help you ascend to the pinnacle of the continent!"

The white-haired old man's words were highly inflammatory.

Combined with that benevolent face and the sacred palace backdrop, it was enough to make most people lose their judgment in their ecstasy.

However, this seemingly perfect "opportunity" caused Xiao Qing's chill to rise to its peak!

Xiao Qing stood still, showing no intention of stepping forward to receive the "inheritance".

Instead, his gaze was as sharp as a sword, coldly staring at the kind-looking white-haired old man's phantom, as if trying to see through him inside and out.

Seeing that Xiao Qing did not rush over excitedly as expected, the white-haired old man's smile remained warm. He stroked his beard gently and continued, "Young friend, are you perhaps harboring doubts? Worried that there might be a trap here?"

"Hehe—Rest assured, I am the guardian spirit of this place, and my duty is to guide those who are destined to find their way. I have absolutely no intention of harming anyone!"

The white-haired elder paused, his voice becoming even more alluring: "Within this inheritance, there are not only Heaven-Rank cultivation techniques that will allow you to stand out from the crowd, but also Heaven-Rank combat skills of astonishing power—obtaining them will allow you to roam the continent and achieve unparalleled feats!"
