Fists that can subdue mountains and rivers, martial arts that can lead to immortality!

The heart of the Kunlun Mountains.

A majestic and precipitous mountain peak appears to have been cleaved in two by a sword, and then continues to split open to both sides.

Finally, a seven-colored light curtain extended out from the crack.

"The primordial energy of heaven and earth is scarce."

"There seems to be a slight toxicity in the air. If one were to live in such an environment for a long time, even an ordinary person would probably not live a long life."

"I remember the last time the Heavenly Gate opened, Chen Jie purged the world, and this place wasn't this bad."

"Has the environment of the Abandoned Land deteriorated to this extent in just over a hundred years?"

From within the light screen, a tall man dressed in ancient costume with long, flowing hair walked out. He frowned, and his square face appeared very solemn.

"Or would the ancient powerful beings have established ancestral lands?"

"This place will get worse year by year, and in the future, the Heavenly Gate may not open automatically anymore."

"Once the Heavenly Gate closes completely, we won't have to carry out this damn mission anymore."

"What kind of experts could possibly be found in such a small, abandoned place?"

"It has been almost eight hundred years since Zhang Sanfeng, the founder of Zhenwu Mountain, stormed into the ancestral land. No one has been able to successfully storm into the ancestral land again and gain a foothold under the suppression of various forces."

"The last time the ancestral land's Heavenly Gate opened, Chen Jie, Wu Qiujing, and Su Chang came here and killed Lin Tianyi, who claimed to be the best in the world."

"That guy is alright. If he had been born in our ancestral land, he could have become a terrestrial immortal."

"But that's all."

"Now, more than a hundred years have passed, and perhaps this time even the Abandoned Land will not have someone like Lin Tianyi."

"Perhaps those exiles from the ancestral lands have already slaughtered all the so-called experts in this abandoned land."

"If that's the case, then we're in a lot of free time."

"As long as we wait for these exiles to find this place and verify their identities, and then dump the next batch of exiles here to eat and wait to die, the mission will be accomplished."

Behind the square-faced man, a effeminate man with a high ponytail, dressed in black martial arts attire and holding a long sword, stretched lazily and spoke.

"The Heavenly Gate is opening less and less frequently."

"Perhaps the next time the Heavenly Gate opens will be two hundred years from now."

"After a few more openings, once the spiritual energy of this abandoned land becomes too thin, it may never be opened again."

"At that time, we will be completely cut off from this land."

"But no matter what, this land was once our roots."

The third person from the ancestral land also walked out calmly. He was wearing a five-colored robe, stood with his hands behind his back, and had an extraordinary demeanor.

"The Five Elements Alliance, Li Xingzhou!"

"I didn't expect that the person sent by the Five Elements Alliance this time would be you."

The square-faced man glanced behind him, his pupils slightly contracting.

"My father-in-law is nostalgic and wants me to pay respects to the Li family ancestors on his behalf, and also bring him a handful of soil from his hometown."

"What he gave me was a map from over three thousand years ago. Where am I supposed to find it?"

Li Xingzhou opened the yellowed, worm-eaten, and damaged animal hide map in his hand and shook his head slightly.

"Once we've finished our business, we can try to find some high-ranking officials and dignitaries in the abandoned land and use their networks to investigate. It shouldn't be too difficult."

The effeminate man, Zhao Hanxing, glanced at Li Xingzhou and spoke.

The Five Elements Alliance is the premier super power in the ancestral land.

Ironblood Mountain, where he was located, was only a second-rate force.

As for the square-faced man, his name is Zhang Kuanglong, and he comes from the first-class power, Babao Fudi.

All three of them were seventh-grade terrestrial immortals, having condensed the three flowers of essence, energy, and spirit, reaching the level of the Three Flowers Gathering at the Top.

Such strength would make them a dominant force in the entire ancestral land.

Now that the three of them have arrived together and are stationed at the Heavenly Gate, they will absolutely not allow even a fly from an abandoned land to enter the ancestral land, so as not to pollute the spiritual energy of the ancestral land!

"It's finally here!"

"Our ancestors, you have finally arrived!"

"Zhao Xin, a true disciple of Tianya Haige, pays respects to all esteemed lords!"

Less than three hours after the Heavenly Gate opened in the heart of Kunlun Mountain, a martial arts master at the peak of his cultivation, dressed in tattered cotton clothes, arrived at the place.

This is the only survivor among the ancestral land inspectors.

Having been in the Abandoned Land for over a hundred years, he chose to sever ties with other inspectors and settle down here.

However, after Jiang Wangzu and others joined forces to destroy all the ancestral lands during their inspection, he faked his death, bid farewell to his family, and fled to the vicinity of Kunlun Mountain.

He was genuinely afraid that Jiang Wangzu and the others would learn of his existence from other patrol officers and then trace him back to him.

He disguised himself as a refugee displaced by war and fleeing famine.

We settled down in a small mountain village at the foot of Kunlun Mountain.

I never imagined that I would stay there for more than ten years.

Now, the Great New Republic has unified the entire eastern continent and its national strength is unprecedented. A population census is conducted every three years.

In addition, the Martial Alliance and the Bureau of Extraordinary People regularly test the aptitude of the younger generation and guide them onto the path of cultivation.

Furthermore, the rapid development of technology has exposed many wicked practices hidden in the shadows.

Now, the great man from our ancestral land has finally arrived.

He will never have to live in fear again!

"A true disciple of Tianya Haige?"

Zhang Kuanglong from Babao Fudi glanced at Zhao Xin, who was dressed in slovenly and tattered clothes, and his eyes showed some surprise.

"Tianya Haige has been destroyed for decades. All the elders, including all the true disciples and inner disciples, were killed by Jianlu. I didn't expect there to be one survivor in this abandoned land."

Iron-Blooded Mountain Zhao Hanxing glanced at Zhao Xin and revealed a mocking smile.

Our ancestral land is not paradise.

For those cultivators who want to invade the ancestral land, these gatekeepers are an insurmountable barrier.

Even if you get past them and actually arrive in your ancestral homeland, it will be very difficult to make a name for yourself.

Even the local forces in the ancestral lands are no exception.

Big fish eat small fish, small fish eat shrimp.

Almost every day, forces are destroyed, and others rise again.

This cycle will continue forever.

After all, even in ancestral lands, cultivation resources are limited; the winner takes all, and the loser gets nothing.

Tianya Haige was just a third-rate force, without even a third-rank terrestrial immortal, so it's normal that it was destroyed.

"Alright, enough with the nonsense."

"Zhao Xin, right? Why are you alone? Where are the others? Aren't they with you?"

"Tell us how the Abandoned Lands are doing now?"

"Are there any experts worth our attention?"

Li Xingzhou of the Five Elements Alliance glanced at Zhao Xin, then casually asked.

"Dead!"

"They're all dead!"

"I'm all alone now!"

"Over the years, the Abandoned Lands have produced many powerful figures, and Jiang Wangzu, the current number one sect in the world, has reached the limit of this realm."

"No, he has already surpassed the limits of this realm!"

Zhao Xin felt a pang of sorrow upon hearing that his sect had been destroyed, but since the terrestrial immortal had asked him directly, he naturally dared not refuse to answer.

He recounted in detail the changes that had taken place in the Eastern Continent over the past hundred years, or rather, the last two or three decades.

Li Xingzhou, Zhang Kuanglong, and Zhao Hanxing were initially somewhat dismissive, believing that a true dragon could not be raised in the shallow waters of the Abandoned Land.

When they heard that Jiang Wangzu had possessed the strength to kill the Pope of the Western Continent, who was known as the God of Man, twelve years ago, their expressions immediately became serious.
