The Eternal World

"Heh heh, it's just a false reputation. Everyone, please excuse me!" The pill didn't put on the airs of an expert, but it cupped its fists towards the crowd and said with a smile, "If there's a chance in the future, come back and chat again. I still have things to do, so I must catch up to the Wind Ridge Crossing as soon as possible!"

After saying that, he looked around his surroundings, then leaped up and dashed towards the direction that Jiang Nan had gone.

"Tsk tsk ??? "Quasi-ancient powers ???" Zhang Chao pouted.

Speaking of which, it seemed like he still did not know what sort of existence the so-called ancient supreme elder was.

Compared to Gui Yuan Three Stages, or the so-called opening of the Gate of Heaven, what was the difference?

"Curious, right?" Leng Feiyun seemed to have seen through Zhang Chao's thoughts, and muttered to the side: "The so-called ancient experts, are all the experts who participated in the ancient wars and survived. The strength of these experts, should at least be able to open the gates to heaven!"

"And a quasi-ancient almighty being, is probably just one step away from opening the gates of heaven!"

"Although, to be able to open the Gate of Heaven does not mean that I have an eternal life, it is not too far from it. At the very least, living for hundreds of thousands of years is not a problem!"

"Damn... A lifespan of hundreds of thousands of years? " Zhang Chao's mouth was agape. What did this mean?

The first thing he thought of was that heaven defying technique "Treadmill" that would consume a large amount of his life force!

If he could also have such a long lifespan, wouldn't Treadmill be used casually?

Let's return back to the Soaring Cloud Sect and take a break. I don't know what else Dong Long has done, but a group of them should be here to investigate the situation around the continent. Fei Hua clapped her hands and said loudly.

"Oh right, I wonder how's the blood pool. I wonder if the buddhist masters have succeeded in purifying it or not!" Yuan Zongyi suddenly thought about the blood pool.

"Leng Feiyun, Yi Zhan Tian, you guys go take a look at the blood pool with Yuan Zongyi. If the blood pool still exists, find a way to help the few high monks of the Buddhist Sect to get rid of it!" Ao Shi nodded and instructed, "The rest of you, follow me back to Soaring Cloud Sect!"

"Oh right, Zhang Chao, come over for a bit!"

"Uh, me?" Zhang Chao walked over when he heard her.

Originally, their mission was to remove an ancient seal and to request the help of an expert. But since you haven't come back in such a long time, I'm worried that something might happen. Ao Shi said, and gave Zhang Chao a map.

"An accident?" Zhang Chao's heart stirred, and he took the map.

"Where is it? Wouldn't it be better for us to go?" Yuan Zongyi walked over and asked in confusion.

"Here... I'm afraid only Zhang Chao can enter! " At this time, Xiao Nan walked over and shook his head: "To enter that place, I need a key. The key that Qiao Ruixue and the others are holding is mine!"

"Key? Could it be ??? Guoyin Association's ??? " Zhang Chao's pupils contracted as he hurriedly took out the chess piece that the Guoyin Association had given him. "Are you talking about this?"

"That's right, it's this thing!" Xiao Nan nodded.

"Since they are able to enter with this, wouldn't others be able to enter with me as well? And I can also bring other people with me, right? " Zhang Chao asked in confusion.

"It's not as simple as you think!" Ao Shi shook his head: "We had previously enhanced Xiao Nan's chess piece before, and had even used a precious treasure of the Soaring Cloud Sect to hide it from the heavens and ocean. Only then would they be able to bring it into this place!"

"The treasure of the Soaring Cloud Sect?" Zhang Chao was a little shocked.

With such a huge matter, they even used the Soaring Cloud Sect's treasures, why did they have to send Qiao Ruixue and the rest?

Wouldn't it be safer to have experts like Yuan Zongyi and Little Lucky go?

"Hehe, I know what you are thinking, but there is a reason why they should go instead of the other experts." Leng Feiyun laughed by the side: "Although that place is dangerous, there is still some luck hidden there. But for people like Xiao Nan and Yuan Zongyi, that luck is too little of a use!"

"I understand. Do risks and opportunities coexist?" Zhang Chao raised his eyebrows.

"This is the path of cultivation, Zhang Chao ??? When I was in War God Academy previously, to be honest, I really admired you. Although there are a lot of things that I need to do to make up for them, before that, I have something to give you first! " Shadow also walked over and patted Zhang Chao's shoulder.

Zhang Chao's body instantly trembled.

A cultivation technique suddenly appeared in his mind.

It was a gift from Shadow.

The pinnacle of battle!

Fighting spirit was something that was difficult to materialize.

However, it could increase a person's strength several fold.

"You should properly comprehend it, but you must be careful not to be swallowed by the will of war. As a result, you must not lose your consciousness and become a machine for battle!" The shadow reminded him.

"Ugh ???" "Many thanks!" Zhang Chao nodded, he knew the weight of this gift.

After Ao Shi and the rest gave their instructions, Zhang Chao left alone, heading towards the location indicated on the map.

He never thought that the treasures of the country's secret would actually be hidden in the Chaotic Continent.

If he were to rely on himself, it would be unknown when he would be able to set foot on this piece of land. And to find the treasure trove, it would be even more difficult.

However, was there another expert within the treasure trove?

From the way Ao Shi and the rest said it, Qiao Ruixue and the rest had gone to call for reinforcements. In other words, their reinforcements was inside the treasure deposit?

In any case, his own attainments in artifact forging had already entered a bottleneck. Even though there were precious treasures for him to study, it was basically impossible for him to refine them.

So, sooner or later, he would also go to the country's hidden treasures to investigate!

The location of the treasure was marked on the map exactly to the west of the entire Chaotic Continent, in the depths of a marsh area.

In this place, other than the endless swamps and vines, there were all kinds of fierce beasts.

When Zhang Chao arrived, the first thing he saw were the corpses of the ferocious beasts.

Looking at the wounds on the body, he could tell that it was made by Qiao Ruixue and the rest.

And in the depths of the swamp, there were several huge altars that had been erected. At this time, they were already in a dilapidated state; they were probably used to form some sort of array formation.

Therefore, an ancient structure was revealed at the center of the altar.

The building was square and looked like a temple. It was built with huge black-gray rocks and was covered with all sorts of vines and plants. It looked extremely dilapidated.

Zhang Chao leaped and arrived in front of the door to the building.

Above a vermillion door, the words' Country Concealment 'were written in very ancient characters.

"This building was probably sealed up earlier, it seems like Qiao Ruixue and the rest destroyed the altar, destroyed the concealment array, and that was why it was revealed!" Zhang Chao's heart stirred, and he pressed his hand on the door.

"Buzz!" Above the door, a red light flashed. Then, the chess piece from the Guoyin Association also flew out from Zhang Chao's body and fused into the door.

"Confirm your identity, you have the right to enter!" A deep voice sounded and the door slowly opened.

Zhang Chao immediately stepped inside.

"Boom!" The door closed.

It was pitch black.

"Ta, ta, ta, ta ???" Following which, lights began to light up on the walls on both sides one after another.

The flames within these lamps were purplish-blue in color. It was unknown what fuel was used to light up the corridor in front of them.

Zhang Chao observed carefully, the ground was covered with thick dust, thus he left behind a pile of footprints.

These footprints should belong to Qiao Ruixue and the others. If one followed these footprints, they should be able to easily find them!

At least that's what he thought.

He was not in a rush to find treasures, they would not be able to escape him even if he left them there. Moreover, unless another Five Cauldrons Forger came to fight with him for them, ordinary people would not be able to obtain those treasures.

After walking along the corridor for the time it took an incense stick to burn, he faintly heard the sounds of fighting.

"Hmm? Why is there the sound of fighting? " His heart sank as he quickened his pace.

As he got closer and closer to the voice, another door appeared in front of him.

He pushed the door open and the view before him suddenly became clear!

The scene in front of him was no longer that of a room, but a courtyard.

Here the mountains and rivers were connected, the four directions were evergreen, the pavilion was made of artificial mountains and streams, the sky was blue, and a warm wind was blowing, it was like a paradise.

There were also a few people frantically fighting near the pavilion.

Those few people were actually Qiao Ruixue and the rest. However, they were already covered with scars.

Their opponent was a white-clothed young man that sat stably within the pergola.

The young man had a delicate and pretty appearance, looking elegant and graceful, with a cup in one hand and a light red wine in the other. He waved lightly, while holding a wooden sword in the other, without even looking at it, and casually blocked Qiao Ruixue and the others' attacks.

Beside him, on the stone table, there was a wine cup with half a cup of wine inside.

Looking at the young man's long white silk robe, there was the word 'pure' embroidered on his chest. There was a light red ribbon tied around his waist, making him look quite different.

Seeing this, Zhang Chao could not help but stare with wide eyes.

This ??? Isn't that too exaggerated?

Qiao Ruixue, Xiao Tudou, Dongfang Qiuxin and the baldy, the four of them working together, were actually unable to break through the wooden sword!

However, when he looked around, he did not see any signs of Tiger-Teeth Girl.

"Pa Pa Pa Pa!" Four consecutive crisp sounds, Qiao Ruixue and the other three were once again sent flying by the wooden sword, and all fell to the ground.

"This won't do. It's still not enough. Continue working hard!" The young man took another sip of his wine, shook his head and said, "There's no need to rush, there's plenty of time!"

"Damn it, we don't have that much time. Everyone is still waiting for us to return!" Qiao Ruixue wiped off the blood at the corner of her mouth, then forced herself up, already starting to sway a little.

"Damn it, we can't even get past his wooden sword. Moreover, he hasn't even used a single strand of his soul force yet, but we can't even get close to him!"

"Go, fight again!" The four of them looked at each other, then rushed up once again. However, they did not notice that Zhang Chao had already arrived, and was even watching him from not too far away ???
