As if a world that didn’t exist was about to descend upon this one.

This realm suddenly saw the appearance of Chaos Fog from the unknown.

The Chaos Fog was dreamlike and illusory, untouchable, and never dissipating!

The genuine space of the Martial Desolate Realm around them became vague and illusory as well, due to the arrival of this world.

The continuous expanse of land disappeared, the broken walls and ruined peaks vanished, and within this illusory world, everyone had a sense of unreality.

In the foggy world, a faintly black True Bone bobbed uncertainly.

“Dead Dog, what exactly is this thing?”

Wu Dade’s eyes were filled with confusion as he couldn’t help but ask.

Big Black Dog explained,

“Path-Scenic Land.”

“After Gate Opening, one can see their own foggy world. Such a world is known as an Inner Scene or Daoist Scenery.”

“Path-Scenic Land is mysterious and unfathomable, signifying that one’s cultivation has finally borne fruit!”

“Moreover, Path-Scenic Land can merge with reality.”

“And that segment of True Bone is the life bone of some powerful individual, which can stimulate the Path-Scenic Land of its owner.”

“And the owner of the bone can, through the Path-Scenic Land… glimpse this realm and even, descend!”

From a certain perspective, the function of the True Bone is similar to that of a Daoist training field.

The Ultimate Beings in the Sacrificial Temple, when they establish training fields in the Four Domains Eight Desolations, can use them to open their Path-Scenic Land.

The True Bone works the same way; without the life bone’s owner personally crossing the boundary, a segment of their True Bone can carry their Path-Scenic Land into this realm!

After listening, Wu Dade was stunned; this was all… incredibly mysterious.

At this moment,

Path-Scenic Land kept descending. The thick fog already enveloped this land.

It was like entering a foggy day, vision was obstructed, and even the cultivators’ spiritual consciousness was obscured by this type of fog.

Chen Yue, Wu Xiaokun, Chen Zhongtian, and others were completely unable to see the surroundings clearly.

But Dugu Yuqing and Wu Dade had bright eyes; they felt that while the fog was mysterious, it couldn’t obscure their perception.

“Eh, a path is appearing there?”

Wu Dade suddenly spoke up, pointing ahead.

What he was pointing at became more and more distinct amid the surrounding foggy world.

There, a faint path made of principles emerged.

At the end of this small path, it was unknown what world it connected to, deep and enigmatic, impenetrable.

That path, clearly made of various principles, was as real as a country lane.

“Once the gate is opened, find your own path in the Path-Scenic Land, step onto it, and you will have reached the Ascendant Path.”

Big Black Dog explained.

“Damn, unlucky, seriously unlucky!”

Meanwhile, Yin Xu’an was shouting about bad luck, his whole person very alert, secretly forming a Sword Dao sign as if ready for an enemy.

From deep within that small path, heavy footsteps began to transmit.

As if some unknown, colossal creature was drawing closer step by step.

The footsteps became clearer and clearer, with the fog surging in tandem.

In the depths of the fog, it seemed like a pair of big red lanterns slowly appeared; the blurry red light illuminated the body of some creature, like a mountain!

The red light grew more and more intense.

“No, that’s a pair of… crimson eyes?”

Wu Dade was shocked. What was this thing that was walking out of the Path-Scenic Land?

“This world… fills me with loathing…”

A low growl emanated from the mist; the crimson eyes pushed the fog aside, and the coarse breathing of the creature was like thunder.

Finally, the creature physically appeared!

Its body was as tall as a mountain, with four hooves, a short tail, grey fur all over, a long mouth, sharp and curled tusks, and crimson eyes!

“Holy shit, is that… a giant wild boar? It’s excessively huge…!”

Wu Dade blurted out in shock.

At first glance, the creature resembled a wild boar quite a bit.

“Ignorant Human Pet, this is a ‘Grey Hou’… on the same level as the Nine Lives Stone Crow and the Eternal Ring Demon Serpent, a species of the Grey Mist.”

Big Black Dog spoke up, whispering,

“To have stepped beyond the ‘Encounter with Ghosts’ threshold… must have mostly encountered ‘Immortals’…”

But as it spoke, its dog eyes suddenly swiveled, saying,

“This level is considered good stuff… can’t let it get away…”

Muttering, it abruptly plucked out a mouthful of dog hair and, with a swipe of its paw, laid it onto Dugu Yuqing and Wu Dade.

It was concealing the presence of Dugu Yuqing and Wu Dade!

Because, those coming from the Grey Mist Sea who are “Immortal Seers” would definitely recognize Dugu Yuqing and Wu Dade’s identities.

If the other side knew that the ten who were completely dead have been reborn… it would cause great upheaval.

This doesn’t bode well.

After doing all this, Big Black Dog then transmitted his voice to Yin Xu’an:

“Yin Lao Si, ever eaten Grey Hou meat?”

Yin Xu’an was concentrating on standing guard, his expression extremely solemn. When he heard this, he couldn’t help but be taken aback and looked at Big Black Dog, saying,

“Grey Hou… can be eaten?”

He was born in the Grey Mist Sea and knew this tribe very well.

Even though he was once very strong and had contended with some powerful members of the Grey Hou Clan, even killing some Grey Hou… he still wouldn’t dare to eat them.

After eating, one would be tainted with the scent of that tribe! S~eaʀᴄh the Novёlƒire.n(e)t website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

By then, who knows what it might attract.

Big Black Dog said:

“Of course it can… it’s very tasty, want to try?”

Yin Xu’an thought for a moment and said:

“My intuition tells me you’re setting me up… but I’m indeed tempted… First, tell me, if I am pursued by the Grey Mist Sea, will the number one of the Sword Dao protect me?”

He was seizing the chance to cling to a big leg!

If Big Black Dog agreed, he’d even be willing to devote his life, after all, with the number one of Sword Dao on his side, Yin Xu’an felt… even if the entire Grey Mist Sea came for him, he wouldn’t cower!

Upon hearing this, Big Black Dog replied:

“Protect you? Why need him? This Emperor has spoken, I’ll ensure your safety, rest easy!”

Hearing this, Yin Xu’an still felt that Dead Dog was pulling a fast one on him. Right now, in his eyes, the number one of Sword Dao… that was true faith.

“Hm… wait… no…”

Suddenly, he sensed something unusual and involuntarily glanced towards where Big Black Dog had shed its hair.

Then, a look of astonishment flashed through his eyes, and he murmured:

“This dog… has hidden depths?!”

Using the true eye of Sword Dao to observe, he found that this Big Black Dog… didn’t seem as simple as he had imagined.

Before, Big Black Dog’s dense fur had covered itself well, so well that even he hadn’t noticed.

Seeing his reaction, Big Black Dog narrowed his dog eyes and said:

“So, are we doing this?”

Yin Xu’an nodded immediately and said:

“Let’s do this! What… do I need to do?”

Big Black Dog spoke toward the Grey Hou that hadn’t completely appeared in the mist:

“Kill it, lure its true body over, eat meat!”

Yin Xu’an immediately nodded his head!

…

Finally, the Grey Hou fully emerged into the Path-Scenic Land.

Its crimson eyes swept the heavens.

“So, this is the world that woman is protecting?”

“Heh heh… it is said that woman left a terrifying mark on this world, one that even excited the Grey Mist Sea. Now, where is it?”

The Grey Hou murmured, then its gaze swept over the crowd.

It saw the Sword Venerable.

“Heh heh, the once renowned Sword Venerable… now, but a slave.”

In the Grey Hou’s crimson eyes appeared a touch of mockery, it said:

“Kneel!”

“Kneel to the darkness!”

At this moment, the Sword Venerable was like a soulless shell.

Just a moment ago, he had wavered, on the verge of awakening from the demonic state.

But, now influenced by the Grey Hou, surrounded by fog and confusion, he was falling back into the mire.

“Everything is already destroyed… darkness rules the universe…”

He murmured as if he was about to lose himself completely once more!

“Kneel!”

The Grey Hou roared: “Have you forgotten your master in the darkness?”

However, just at that moment, a flash of sword light suddenly struck towards the Grey Hou!

“Kneel your uncle!”

The Grey Hou was abruptly startled and turned to see Yin Xu’an.

It was extremely shocked and said:

“Sword Ancestor?!”

“They didn’t guess wrong, you really hid in this realm?!”

“I… have finally found you!”

…

Goodnight.
