The Black Mountains covered quite a large area, about 1,000 kilometers.
However, everyone present had reached the Dao realm.
If Dao realm cultivators fought without restraint, then the 1,000-kilometer area would be reduced to nothingness. It would definitely attract a lot of attention. Therefore, if a battle really broke out here, they would need to restrain themselves to avoid being detected by the other participants.
Yuchi had already arrived at the lake at the center of the Black Mountains. It had a diameter of about 100 kilometers.
It could not be compared to Hanjiang’s river, nor could it be compared to the Vast Sea, but it was a good opportunity to try and catch whatever was in here, or had been in here
At this time, no one had opted to come to the lake.
Yuchi found a rather strange-looking rock and sat on it. He took out his fishing rod and cast fishing line into the gloomy-looking lake in front of him.
Then, he waited.
After some time, a notification appeared in his mind.
[Fishing difficulty level: C]
100% success rate…
Yuchi was not surprised by this. After all, he had already reached the Dao essence realm.
When he jumped into the pitch-black lake, he saw an ancient ghost holding a lantern in front of him.
The ghost was three meters tall and its body was as slender as a bamboo pole. Its face was dark, and its whole body was covered in gray eyes. He could clearly see the word on the lantern in its hand.
Memorial.
It was not written in a human language, but he could somehow understand its meaning. Despite this, he did not know what it represented.
He was not in a hurry to exterminate the ghost.
He faked his death and followed the ghost into its memory fragment.
The ghost was walking amidst the dark night with a lantern in hand. Behind him were the figures of his companions, and there were probably tens of millions of them!
Behind these figures was a large palanquin made of bones.
He did not know what kind of big shot was sitting in the palanquin!
This was rather special.
In the vast majority of memory fragments, the ancient being he fought would be the main protagonist of these scenes. However, in these scenes, it was obvious that the palanquin was the main anchor point.
The ghost was simply a servant of some great being.
“This is interesting.”
“What kind of person was sitting in the palanquin that, even after this insignificant ghost died, he still couldn’t forget this person?”
Yuchi looked at the scenes for a while, then destroyed the ghost.
[Past: Eye of Black Ice – Hundred-eyed Palanquin Bearer]
[Difficulty: SSS]
[Race: Ghost Parade]
[Technique: Lantern]
[Introduction: The most humble palanquin-bearer among the Ghost Parade. He is one of the weakest among the Ghost Parade and serves the Ghost King.]
The Ghost Parade race?
The weakest among them was actually an SSS-rank warrior?
It was truly terrifying.
As for the ghost king… Who was he?
How strong would he be?
It seemed that this lake was called the Eye of Black Ice.
Eyes?
What did the eyes represent? It represented the window to the soul.
Then…
Could this 100-kilometer-wide Black Ice Lake be considered the cornea of the eye?
Yuchi jumped into the air and looked down.
He stared at the Eye of Black Ice, and the eye of black ice was also staring at him.
Then, he confirmed it.
The Eye of Black Ice was like an eyeball that was deeply buried in the ground.
He could only see the cornea, though he could tell that there was something else deeper within.
This lake was extremely deep!
“Interesting.”
Yuchi returned to the strange rock. While sitting on the rock, he was surrounded by cold mist.
He looked at the lake. He could not restrain himself and dived in.
He did not dive into the depths, but just floated on the surface of the lake.
He was surrounded by black mist.
There was ice forming everywhere around his body.
Yuchi was lying face-down on the surface of the water, his eyes gazing into the depths of the lake. At a certain moment, a black-haired ghost-faced fish looked at him face to face.
Mmm.
It was quite pleasant.
Of course, if Yu Shengyun witnessed what he was doing, she would be so angry that she would vomit blood.
Was he really just here to play?
…
In the blink of an eye, a few days passed.
Over the past few days, many participants had already found beacons, which were stored in their jade tokens.
Outside this area, the 10,000-meter-tall building was still floating silently.
Inside the building, the support teams of the various races who were participating in the hunt were nervously looking at the jade tokens in front of them.
These jade tokens were connected to the participants’ jade tokens. If the participants died, these jade tokens would shatter.
More than a dozen participants had already died.
The support teams of some of the weaker participating races were kneeling down after seeing their participants’ jade tokens shatter.
For these weaker races, it had not been easy to participate in the hunt. Many races had given their all to cultivate a Dao realm existence.
If their participant was killed, it would take at least another thousand years to cultivate a new candidate, if not longer. Some races might even go extinct during this period.
The other great races fared better, but had also lost some of their participating members.
The old man from the artifact spirit race was now completely focused on Sword Heart’s jade token.
He was quite afraid, and he kept praying to the ancestors to give her strength.
At some point, the old man suddenly noticed that there was a small flame floating beside Sword Heart’s jade tokent.
The old man was overjoyed.
Sword Heart had obtained her first beacon!
The beacons were reflected in the form of flames which floated beside the jade tokens. Some participants already had five beacons!
Although Sword Heart was not able to obtain as many beacons compared to these people, the old man’s requirements for her were not very high.
Two!
She only needed two!
Two would be enough!
After thinking for a while, the old man’s face displayed worry.
Now that Sword Heart had a beacon, she would become a potential target for the other participants.
“I hope Sword Heart will be fine!”
“Good luck!”
“Persevere!”
The old man knelt on the ground, clenched his fists and prayed.
However…
In the end, Sword Heart was still attacked!
She was running away at full speed! Behind her, there were two first-grade Dao realm enemies!
