Shrouding the Sky: The System Arrived Thirty Years Early

After making a preliminary plan, Luo Qianqiu gently closed her eyes.

He hadn't slept for two days and two nights. Although he could still manage, it was still necessary for him to rest and recuperate.

As dawn broke, sunlight tore through the clouds, casting a golden glow across the sky.

In the mountains and forests, everyone awoke one after another.

After a night's rest, they all looked to be in good spirits.

Some people with a positive mindset have even accepted reality and stopped feeling sorry for themselves.

Many people spontaneously went to the nearby stream to wash up, and then picked wild fruits to eat, and everything became orderly.

On the huge blue stone, Luo Qianqiu climbed high and looked out, searching for a way to leave the desolate and forbidden land.

Beside him was Lin Jia, who was still somewhat dazed, silently processing the conversation they had just had.

Yes, Luo Qianqiu selectively revealed some things to Lin Jia, such as the Crocodile Ancestor Divine Embryo, as well as the mysteries of the Sacred Fruit and cultivation.

Of course, he didn't tell the truth; his version had been tweaked and refined.

For example, the Crocodile Ancestor's divine embryo was in his possession, which turned into the Crocodile Ancestor wanting to control him. However, at the critical moment, the Nine Dragons Pulled the Coffin and set sail. Because the two were separated by endless star fields, the Crocodile Ancestor lost control of the divine embryo, which benefited him, and he gained a lifetime of cultivation inheritance for nothing.

As for the Sacred Fruit, he felt a powerful force within his body when he opened the Sea of ​​Bitterness last night. After investigating, he discovered that it was the fruit he had swallowed the day before, and that's how he learned about the Sacred Fruit's mystery.

Luo Qianqiu's story is a mixture of truth and falsehood, concealing the existence of the panel and turning the key points into coincidences.

Even if others knew, they could only marvel at his amazing luck and find no flaws, because everything was reasonable and not a wild fabrication.

Lin Jia remained silent for a long time before finally accepting reality. She looked at Luo Qianqiu and asked curiously, "So, you're now a legendary immortal?"

In mythology, immortals practiced breathing exercises, which led to longevity. They could travel to the North Sea in the morning and Cangwu in the evening, living freely between heaven and earth, untouched by worldly dust, which is something people yearn for.

In Lin Jia's imagination, that's what cultivators should be like.

Luo Qianqiu shook his head at this, saying, "Immortals are too ethereal and cannot be pursued in this world. I have only just embarked on the path of cultivation and am far from that level."

"Is it very difficult to become an immortal?" Lin Jia couldn't help but wonder.

"It depends on how you think about it. If being an immortal is simply about flying through the sky, destroying mountains and rivers, and moving mountains and filling seas, then there are plenty of immortals in this world," Luo Qianqiu chuckled.

Lin Jia clicked her tongue in amazement. Flying through the air, destroying mountains and rivers with a single stroke, moving mountains and filling seas—and yet she wasn't an immortal? How terrifying were true immortals?!

Looking at Lin Jia's pretty face filled with confusion, Luo Qianqiu didn't explain further, but instead asked, "I'm preparing to leave the group. What about you? Would you like to leave with me?"

"Of course, I'll follow you wherever you go." Lin Jia replied without hesitation.

Luo Qianqiu nodded slightly and said, "In that case, let's walk a little further and then leave the group."

After saying that, he pulled up his hat and put it on, covering almost half of his face. If others didn't look closely, they wouldn't notice the change at all.

Seeing this, Lin Jia also pulled up her hood, making Luo Qianqiu's actions seem less strange.

After returning to the team's assembly point, no one paid much attention to the matter, and some girls even followed suit, using the sun to shield themselves from the intense sunlight.

After making some preparations, the group set off again, heading towards the edge of the forbidden area.

The mountain was rugged and extremely difficult to traverse, but no one complained. Even Liu Yiyi, who was in the worst physical condition, gritted her teeth and persevered.

Because everyone knows that the desolate forbidden land is not a place to stay for long. After a day and a night, there was no life in this area except for vegetation, not even insects or ants. It was a place where life had disappeared.

There is definitely great danger here, but they have not yet encountered it, or the danger is on its way.

Everyone understood this, so they were eager to leave the area, and even though they were exhausted, they gritted their teeth and persevered.

Two hours later, the group climbed another high mountain. As they looked ahead, a clear roar of a beast came from afar.

"There are wild animals; we need to leave this area!"

"Great, we're finally leaving the Forbidden Wasteland!"

At this moment, everyone was filled with joy, even though danger lurked ahead, and there were even terrifying wild beasts.

But compared to the unknown horrors of the ancient forbidden land, people would rather face the real and ferocious beasts.

Because the unknown is the most terrifying thing.

Hearing the roar of the wild beast, Luo Qianqiu knew the time had come and stepped forward, saying, "Everyone, all good things must come to an end. Lin Jia and I may have to part ways with you now."

Upon hearing this, everyone was stunned, not understanding why Luo Qianqiu would suddenly make such a decision.

"Brother Luo, we're about to leave the Forbidden Ancient Land. Why are you splitting up now?" Pang Bo asked, puzzled.

But as soon as he finished speaking, Ye Fan said, "Everyone has their own ambitions. This is Brother Luo and Lin Jia's choice, and we can respect it. We wish you both a safe journey and hope to meet you again."

"Brother Ye, Brother Pang, everyone, until we meet again." Luo Qianqiu nodded and led Lin Jia away in the other direction.

The group stared at the two figures with puzzlement, but said nothing and quickly continued on their way along the original route.

These past two days have seen life-and-death separations, so this mere separation isn't enough to evoke much emotion.

And so, the group split up again, with the two groups heading in different directions and ending at different destinations.

On the other side, after the two were out of sight of everyone, Luo Qianqiu carried Lin Jia on his back and strode out like a galloping horse, heading towards the outside of the forbidden area at an extremely fast speed.

"what!"

Lin Jia gasped softly, her two delicate hands quickly wrapping around Luo Qianqiu's neck as she stared in shock at the trees and rocks rushing past on either side.

Is this what cultivation is? Such immense power is gained so soon after taking the first step!

He ran on his legs and his speed was no less than that of a car traveling at 70 or 80 miles per hour!

Luo Qianqiu moved with lightning speed, and even carrying someone on his back, his speed was not affected much.

He sped along, and in about half an hour, he broke out of the mountains and entered a land of life.

Here, flocks of birds fly, beasts roar, plants flourish, and life is vibrant; it is no longer a lifeless place.

"A rabbit! There's a rabbit over there!" Lin Jiaxin exclaimed happily.

For more than two days, they hadn't eaten any proper food. Now that they saw edible wild game, their mouths immediately started watering.

Luo Qianqiu picked up a pebble from the ground and tossed it casually. The pebble tore through the air with a hissing sound.

The next moment, a dull sound rang out, and the gray rabbit, which had run a distance away, fell to the ground, its body still trembling unconsciously, but its life had already ended.

Luo Qianqiu walked over, picked up the gray rabbit from the ground, and started running again.

"We've already left the forbidden area, shouldn't we take a break?"

On her back, Lin Jia noticed that Luo Qianqiu didn't intend to rest on the spot, and couldn't help but ask curiously.

Luo Qianqiu ran as fast as he could, but still had the strength to reply: "This is the edge of the forbidden area. Getting too close to the forbidden area might be dangerous. Just to be safe, let's stay away."

Lin Jia suddenly realized, and couldn't help but admire Luo Qianqiu's thorough thinking and foresight.

This sense of crisis far surpasses that of ordinary people.

"Aren't you tired?" Lin Jia suddenly remembered that Luo Qianqiu had already traveled at least forty or fifty miles since they started from the forbidden area, and he was carrying someone on his back.

Even if he is a cultivator now, he is only a beginner. Can he really withstand running at full speed like this?
