Top-Class Comprehension: Start with Basic Fist Techniques-Chapter 1050 - 323: Mysterious Dead Land! Terrifying Divine Artifact, the Yellow River Forget River! (2)
Zhao Shuying breathed a sigh of relief, her eyes gleaming with excitement.
This journey certainly took a fair amount of time.
There were some twists and turns, but overall, there was no real trouble.
The only thing was that the traveling was a bit dull.
Zhao Shuying got off the carriage first and then went to the inn to book two rooms.
Settling in comes first.
As for how long they would stay in Liang City, that remained unknown. 𝗳𝚛𝗲𝕖𝕨𝕖𝗯𝚗𝚘𝕧𝕖𝗹.𝗰𝗼𝕞
At worst, renting a courtyard to stay in was also an option.
The inn was crowded and complicated.
After Lu Changsheng and Zhao Shuying settled in, he instructed Zhao Shuying to find a place to stay during this period.
No matter what, first they had to settle down.
Lu Changsheng estimated that he would stay in Liang City for a while.
Not just Liang City.
He intended to traverse the entire Xia State, but staying in Liang City was convenient since other places in Xia State weren't far and could be visited within a few days.
Thus, having a place in Liang City was very necessary.
Zhao Shuying was quite adept in navigating the martial arts clan world, familiar with these matters.
Within only three days, Zhao Shuying rented a property.
Indeed, it was a large manor.
They soon moved into the manor.
The manor was large and spacious, previously owned by a wealthy merchant who was now planning to do business elsewhere, and it was expensive and not selling temporarily, so renting it out was better.
Lu Changsheng glanced at it and immediately said, "No need to rent it, just buy it outright."
"Besides, you are a 'Divine' entity now, having established the foundation of your Spiritual Body, it's time to align with your identity."
"How could a Divine ever lack silver coins?"
Lu Changsheng knew Zhao Shuying hadn't changed her mindset yet.
Silver coins?
To Lu Changsheng, they held no value whatsoever.
What use are silver coins?
He could acquire countless silver coins at any time.
Not to mention a single manor.
Even if it were ten manors, Lu Changsheng could easily purchase them.
Even if it went unused and abandoned by tomorrow, he wouldn't care at all.
"Yes, Mr. Lu, I'll immediately look for the merchant to buy this manor."
Zhao Shuying hurriedly lowered her head to acknowledge her mistake.
Indeed, her mindset really hadn't shifted.
Does a Divine need to rent a place to live?
Wouldn't that be utterly ridiculous?
How could a Divine lack silver coins?
Still, Zhao Shuying's time in forging her Spiritual Body was too short.
She hadn't realized yet that she had fundamentally changed distinct from ordinary people.
She quickly arranged this matter.
Lu Changsheng needed not to bother with these trivialities.
After moving into Liang City, he began collecting various mythological stories.
Moreover, these stories even came in the form of booklets.
Liang City, being a State City, was far more prosperous compared to Tianmao City.
There were even scholars dedicated to writing booklets.
Lu Changsheng bought a large number of booklets, all about mythology.
Most of these booklets had almost no useful information.
But what if there was a clue?
Whether it concerned the path of Ascension or the Red Dust Immortal, any trace would be worthwhile.
"Hmm?"
Finally, a few days later, Lu Changsheng really found a clue.
Or rather, it was not a clue but a rumor about Xia State.
This rumor was already very ancient.
Rumor had it that Xia State had once witnessed an earth-shattering Immortal Demon battle.
The Immortals and Demons used Xia State as a battlefield, causing the heavens and earth to quake, and the sun and moon to fade.
This legend had been circulating in Xia State for a long time.
The most important thing was that there were actually specific locations for the so-called Immortal Demon Battlefield.
Supposedly, there was a Dead Land located several hundred miles from Liang City.
The so-called Dead Land was a place where not even a blade of grass could grow.
It seemed to be a forbidden zone of life.
Stretching for dozens of miles, it was barren of any grass, which was eerie.
It's said to be the Immortal Demon Battlefield.
"Immortal Demon Battlefield?"
"Could it be a battle involving beings similar to the Divine, or those possessing divine artifacts?"
Lu Changsheng's eyes lit up.
Having come to Xia State for so many days, he finally obtained what seemed to be the only clue related to divine artifacts.
Even though this clue seemed of little use.
After all, it had been too long.
Almost everyone in Xia State knew about it.
Other Extreme Realm experts must have already explored the Immortal Demon Battlefield.
Most likely, they found nothing.
Even if there were divine artifacts, they would have long been taken.
But Lu Changsheng still decided to take a look himself.
He wasn't necessarily seeking divine artifacts but was also looking for the path of Ascension and fragments of the Red Dust Immortal Tombstone.
Even a single clue would suffice.
Thus, Lu Changsheng had Zhao Shuying stay in Liang City while he headed alone to the Dead Land three hundred miles away.
With Lu Changsheng's speed, he quickly arrived at the Dead Land.
Lu Changsheng saw the Dead Land from a distance.
He immediately spotted the strangeness of the Dead Land.
It was filled with Death Qi!
The place was shrouded in dense Death Qi.
It was the intensity of the Death Qi that affected the surrounding area of dozens of miles, rendering it barren and turning it into the infamous "Dead Land."
Ordinary people dared not come to the Dead Land.
If they entered the Dead Land, the pervasive Death Qi would frighten or erode them.
Even if they didn't die, they would fall gravely ill.
Ordinary people avoided the Dead Land, but it was nothing to cultivators.
A mere Death Qi was nothing to fear for those at the Heavenly Saint Level, Martial Saints, or those in the Divine Power Realm.
"Whoosh."
Without hesitation, Lu Changsheng stepped directly into the Dead Land.
The dense Death Qi instantly enveloped Lu Changsheng.
But Lu Changsheng's physical body had reached the Heavenly Saint Level.
The mere Death Qi couldn't even penetrate his body.
It was blocked outside.
Other than feeling some chill, Lu Changsheng felt nothing else.
Lu Changsheng scanned the area with his consciousness.
Yet he discovered nothing.
No trace of divine artifacts.
Nor any unusual occurrences.
