At this moment.

In the vast, expansive golden desert, a road faintly appeared, shrouded by wind and sand.

Three figures, riding on camels, swayed as they walked forward.

"Dad, where exactly is the Divine-Demonic Trade Point you mentioned? Once we get there, can we truly resolve the issue of the fetus in my belly? I feel like the fetus is growing bigger these past few days."

On the leftmost camel, sat a sunny young girl dressed in a goose-yellow dress, holding a long sword in her left hand and reins in her right, sighing as she proceeded.

"Junior sister, the master wouldn’t deceive us, just keep following."

Shangguan Yun couldn’t help but advise.

He was quite fearful that this junior sister might once again clash with the master.

Throughout the journey, his junior sister’s tendency to chatter hadn’t changed a bit.

Zhao Feiyan pouted, looked at her father with a face filled with grievance, and said, "Dad, just tell me the truth. Is there really any hope for me?"

Zhao Houcai’s eyelids twitched furiously; he wanted to lose his temper many times but forcibly held back.

He pretended not to hear Zhao Feiyan and urged his camel to continue forward.

Zhao Feiyan could only smile bitterly and keep following Zhao Houcai.

Some more time passed.

Dust and sand danced between heaven and earth, roaring loudly.

In the foremost area, shadows of numerous buildings appeared faintly huddled together, with a vast oasis faintly visible behind them.

Shangguan Yun’s eyes lit up and he pointed ahead.

"Master, look, we might be there."

Zhao Feiyan also widened her eyes and looked directly ahead, asking, "Dad, is that it?"

"I see it."

Zhao Houcai’s voice was low, "Don’t make any noise; this place is full of elites. If we provoke them, not even I can protect you, especially you, you brat, do you hear me?"

He glared fiercely at Zhao Feiyan.

Zhao Feiyan quickly covered her mouth, nodding repeatedly.

Zhao Houcai still felt it wasn’t safe.

Maybe it would be best to seal her mouth.

Yet, he was reluctant to seal her mouth, and for a while, Zhao Houcai furrowed his brows, hesitating in his heart.

...

In another direction.

Deep within an Ancient Cave, cold wind howled, piercingly loud, with no end in sight.

It felt as if the entire cave was connected to a bottomless hell.

In the deepest part of the cave, a figure suddenly opened its eyes, shocking and frightening, casting a terrifying light as the entire form rose from the ground, face livid with rage, veins bulging, twisting and jumping.

"Jiang Shi! Jiang Shi! Damn you, destroyed my true body; I shall cut you to pieces!"

Yang Yaotian gritted his teeth in hatred, filled with resentment, pacing here, his aura spreading continously, sweeping up large gales.

"Master, your true body was destroyed by someone?"

Next to him, a peculiar owl with a human head showed a surprising look as it gazed at Yang Yaotian.

"No one should speak of it anymore; whoever dares, I shall kill them!"

Yang Yaotian shouted angrily.

The peculiar owl shivered, not daring to say more, fawningly said, "Master, the Divine-Demonic Trade Market is about to begin; shall I go out and gather information for you?"

Yang Yaotian took a deep breath, desperately suppressing the rage within him, exhaling heavily, coldly said, "Go ahead, and carefully monitor the Evil Dao Sect’s activities; if there are any clues, contact me immediately!"

"Yes, Master!"

The peculiar owl responded immediately, flapping its wings and swiftly flying away, rustling as it moved.

"Evil Dao Sect, formerly the second largest faction in the Demon Sect, if they support me, my revenge may be achieved..."

Yang Yaotian muttered to himself.

He was unaware that Jiang Shi and Daoist Master Xuan had already entered the Western Desert, heading towards this direction.

...

On a desolate ancient path.

Endless desert.

Two figures moved quickly, appearing from the desert in a flash like meteors, soon emerging upon a low slope of sand.

Looking out, all that could be seen was the endless expanse of golden sand.

"Daoist Master Xuan, are you sure we haven’t lost our way, and the Divine Tomb is really nearby?"

Jiang Shi inquired.

"Don’t worry, absolutely no mistake."

Daoist Master Xuan nodded, "I might err in other places, but the Divine Tomb is exact, Mr. Jiang; once we reach the Divine Tomb, can you truly find that beast?"

He still couldn’t quite believe it.

"Of course."

Jiang Shi suddenly chuckled, "Just lead me to the Divine Tomb; once there, leave finding Yang Yaotian entirely to me. I say I can find him, and I will!"

He had accurately read Yang Yaotian’s memory, knowing clearly where Yang Yaotian was hiding now.

If they could reach the Divine Tomb smoothly, he would unquestionably extract Yang Yaotian.

At this moment, he truly wished to surprise Yang Yaotian.

Uncertain of Yang Yaotian’s expression upon seeing them again.

"Alright!"

Daoist Master Xuan nodded vigorously, fully reassured, "Onward!"

Whoosh, whoosh!

The two figures rapidly darted ahead, flashing by, disappearing into the distance.

...

The better part of the day whisked past.

The skies in the Western Desert darkened swiftly.

In the blink of an eye, it was already dusk.

On the vast desolate desert, temperatures rapidly plummeted.

Finally, just before darkness fell.

Two figures flashed by, drawing near the Divine Ruins Land.

"Mr. Jiang, this is it."

Daoist Master Xuan abruptly halted, appearing before a vast stretch of ancient buildings, "Here lies the Divine Tomb; this town’s inhabitants are all god-like descendants different from humans and Alien Race."

"We’ve arrived?"

Jiang Shi’s eyes gleamed, scrutinizing the buildings ahead, rapidly comparing them with his memories.

"Come, let’s go inside and take a look!"

Jiang Shi whispered, quickly dashing forward.

Daoist Master Xuan swiftly followed.

Caw, caw, caw...

Suddenly, a series of strange crowing sounds echoed above them.

Jiang Shi, rushing forward, abruptly stopped, lifted his head, and his eyes glimmered, spotting a peculiar owl overhead.

The peculiar owl had a human head yet a bird’s body, swiftly flying over them, emanating a sinister and eerie aura.

"Found it."

Jiang Shi’s eyes gleamed with a strange smile.

Things seemed smoother than expected.

"Oh, you’ve really found it?"

Daoist Master Xuan hastily inquired.

"Indeed."

Jiang Shi chuckled softly, following that peculiar owl closely.
