Sha Sheng stood behind his master, holding the hind leg of a half-human-sized desert camel in both hands, taking big bites.

While eating with oil dripping down his mouth, the child couldn't help but shout, "Those are bad people, but the ship owner is a really good person. Master, please help save the good person!"

Zhao Sheng reached out and touched Sha Sheng's head, feeling the unusually smooth texture. He nodded casually and said one word, "Okay!"

Hearing his master's agreement, Sha Sheng's eyes were filled with excitement, and before his smile faded, he agreed.

A faint divine light appeared at Zhao Sheng's brow, and he casually snapped his fingers.

Pa!

At the same moment, dozens of miles away, the heads of those sand pirate members exploded like watermelons, brain matter splattering out, only to be blown away by the strong wind in an instant.

In the blink of an eye, headless bodies fell from the high sky, quickly swallowed and erased by the surrounding storm, leaving no trace of bones.

Even nine Golden Core masters, except for one who was mysteriously taken away, were not spared; their heads exploded by the power of the Primordial Spirit, dying inexplicably.

Hu Jiutong, Jin Tianhou and other Golden Core Masters were shocked to see their formidable opponents' heads explode one by one. While feeling baffled, their hearts naturally filled with deep reverence and fear.

Several Golden Core Masters gathered together, nervously looking around, as if waiting for a savior to appear, yet seemingly fearing something.

"Let's go!"

Zhao Sheng had no intention of showing off in public. After casually destroying this wave of sand pirates, he called his disciple, ready to leave.

A good sightseeing trip was interrupted by sand pirates; although Zhao Sheng didn't say it, he was actually a little displeased.

Just now, he was merely venting a bit of his inner frustration through his disciple's words.

Aaaah!

At this moment, a shadow suddenly flew out from the depths of the storm, screaming as it flew quickly and heavily landed on the deck in front of Zhao Sheng and others, revealing a short, skinny bald old man with blood-red tattoos all over his body.

The old man's face was tattooed with a Giant Black Death Scorpion, looking so lifelike it seemed it could come to life at any moment.

Despite his unassuming appearance, he was the Great Commander of the Sand Pirate Group, with cultivation above the Golden Core Seventh Layer.

The bald old man immediately turned over and knelt in front of Zhao Sheng and his disciple, begging for mercy loudly, looking utterly disgraceful, without a shred of Golden Core Master's demeanor.

Zhao Sheng did not waste words on this man, his eyes shooting out two beams of divine light, piercing the man's eyes.

The bald old man was struck as if by lightning, his body stiffening in place, eyes rolling back, facial veins bulging, displaying extreme pain.

A moment later, blood oozed from his orifices and his Divine Soul collapsed and died.

Zhao Sheng also obtained the information he wanted from the man's mind.

"Disciple, all his possessions are yours!" Zhao Sheng thought while casually speaking.

"Really! Master, you're the best." Hearing this, Sha Sheng's face was full of excitement as he quickly ran to the corpse to carefully search for treasures.

At the same time, the green wooden boat suddenly rose into the sky, ignoring the ravaging sandstorm around it, and sped off swiftly towards a certain northwest direction.

In an instant, the boat had disappeared into the vast yellow sand.

...

In the northernmost part of the Endless Desert, a towering mountain range, stretching for countless miles, stood before the vast desolate wilderness like a gigantic gateway reaching into the clouds, blocking the endless yellow sand from the North Domain and carving out a vast Human Clan haven on the Sky Sinking Continent.

This mountain range was called Transverse Mountain and was one of the most famous Barbaric Territories in the Black Sand Realm, home to countless Demon Beast Races, including some Transformed Demon Kings who claimed mountains as their kingdoms.

In the center of the Transverse Mountain Range, an enormous canyon, steep and straight, over a hundred miles wide, divided the entire Transverse Mountain into eastern and western parts.

At the mouth of the Broken Canyon, a massive city reaching a thousand zhang high stood, with numerous watchtowers and city walls filled with large-scale war magic artifacts, and within and outside the city walls were embedded high-level arrays, perpetually shrouded in a massive white light screen in the Upper Sky.

Apparently, this city was called North Gate City, also known as Demon Suppression Pass, entirely built for warfare, representing the highest level of cultivation in the Northern Territory Cultivation World, and reputed to be an unbreachable city.

Approaching dusk, the sunset had already dropped behind the city walls, casting dim yellow light extending from the distant wilderness, illuminating the Golden Gang Rock city walls with a soft glow.

Passing through one city wall higher than the last and through the triple gate city, there emerged a huge bustling city stretching for hundreds of miles, filled with numerous workshops, streets crisscrossed like a net, and thousands of towers and palaces densely packed like a golden stone forest. Though night had not yet fallen, the city was already brightly lit as if it were daytime.

At this time, on a main street paved with green stones in Peace Square in the west of the city, a tall and a short figure were walking slowly together.

The shorter one was wrapped in a large robe, his head bald and features fairly regular, but his face was covered in pus-filled sores, looking somewhat frightening. He was holding a pig leg, taking big bites, not caring about the oil on his face.

The tall man wore a purple robe, with a calm and restrained aura, his eyes deep as the ocean, precisely Zhao Sheng.

Naturally, the one next to him was Sha Sheng.

Having learned the general direction of Black King City, Zhao Sheng intended to go there and investigate.

However, before departing, he needed to settle his disciple first.

"Master, um... does that taste good?" Sha Sheng asked unclearly while chewing on the pig leg.

Following his gaze, Zhao Sheng saw a pastry shop by the street, filled with various exquisite pastries.

The nearby air was thick with the rich aroma of pastries emanating from the shop.

Zhao Sheng smiled faintly, turned around with his disciple, and walked into the pastry shop in a few steps.

A moment later, all the pastries in the shop were swept clean.

After Zhao Sheng and his disciple left the shop, they quickly blended into the crowd, soon disappearing into the depths of Peace Square.

Soon after, in Mr. Han's house, the largest and most luxurious mansion in Peace Square, a "distinguished guest" suddenly appeared.

Mr. Han, the head of the Han Family, was extremely respectful to him, swiftly gathering a variety of delicious food, personally delivering it to the distinguished guest's room, fearing any slight neglect of the "guest."

After making proper arrangements for his disciple, Zhao Sheng did not stay long in North Gate City, directly activating Space-Time Teleportation Divine Power, instantly teleporting away.

...

Deep within the Endless Desert, over the vast boundless Death Desert, a figure suddenly appeared out of thin air.

Zhao Sheng stood suspended in the high sky, quietly overlooking the endless desert below, his incredibly strong Divine Thought quietly expanding in all directions, instantly covering a range of a thousand miles.

After one breath, his brow slightly furrowed, discovering that within a thousand miles all was barren and desolate, with nothing but sand, no signs of life.

However, according to the information obtained from Soul Search earlier, the infamous Black King City was indeed located underground in this unnamed desert.

Somewhere here, there must be an "underground passage" leading to this city.

Seeing nothing was found, Zhao Sheng's mind shifted, instantly teleporting thousands of miles away, his Divine Thought expanding once again.

In this way, searching from place to place, he quickly found an underground passage beneath a sand dune.

From this point on, words were unnecessary.

Soon, Zhao Sheng had delved a hundred miles underground, arriving at a vast underground world.

Zhao Sheng was moved as he looked down at the endless serene sea surface below.

No outsider would ever imagine that beneath this Death Desert, an ocean over a thousand miles wide had formed, and it was incredibly precious fresh water.

The largest base of the sand pirates, Black King City, was located on a spirit island in the center of the sea, with hundreds of thousands of people living there year-round, though most were slaves of the sand pirates.

Composing himself, Zhao Sheng released his Divine Thought, spreading it towards the depths of the sea.

Soon, he located the spirit island within the sea.

In the next instant, he disappeared out of thin air, instantly teleporting to the sky above the spirit island, hundreds of miles away.
