For Yang Qian, being in the upper world is definitely not as safe as being in the middle domain at this moment.
All the powerful people in the upper world held their breath and concentrated on observing any movement around them. If Yang Qian showed up there again, there would be too many variables.
Liu Yu was lucky that he did not choose to kill Yang Qian, but chose to stand with Yang Qian. But if other powerful people in the realm of Immortal Venerable were included, Yang Qian would not dare to bet that they would be the same as Liu Yu.
The middle area was now filled with poisonous gas, and all the Void Cities had become dead places. Not only was there no demon cultivator left, but even life had been completely cut off.
Yang Qian was not afraid of the erosion of poisonous gas. His martial soul pill could even crush the poisonous gas and transform it into his own mysterious energy. This was something other cultivators could not even imagine.
Liu Yu naturally understood Yang Qian's thoughts. While he was surprised at Yang Qian's speed of cultivation, he couldn't help but sigh in his heart again, "It turns out that people who are destined to have calamities cannot be guessed by ordinary logic."
Only Jade Immortal Lord who was present was a little confused by the questions and answers between his master and Yang Qian, and had no idea what they were talking about.
However, before Yang Qian went to the middle area, Liu Yu still had something to say to Yang Qian, which was why she came here in such a hurry.
During the past four years, Yang Qian has been practicing, and Liu Yu has not been idle either. She is determined to catch up with Yang Qian, the man who is destined to be robbed, so she has to come up with something.
Otherwise, why did Liu Yu lead the immortals of various forces to break into the Wind Rift three times in the past four years? Wasn't it because he wanted to help Yang Qian, the one who was destined to be calamity, to get more information?
"Master Yang Dan, the situation in the Wind Rift is very strange. I have been in there three times in the past few years, and each time I went deeper. The most recent time I went in more than ten miles.
However, the situation inside can only be described as "a void". Apart from the endless strange metals that were like blades, there were no living things, no vitality, no traps, only the pure Yang Gang wind and the pure Yin wind blowing, sometimes forming a huge and terrifying tornado. Even I dare not be careless with that wind, and being swept into it would only mean death.
In addition, we found a route that was most suitable for travel, one that avoided as many giant tornadoes as possible and was relatively flat.”
As he spoke, Liu Yu handed a path sign to Yang Qian.
Yang Qian took it quickly, glanced at it briefly, and then put it away properly. He bowed to Liu Yu and thanked him. This thing was more useful than anything else. It would prevent Yang Qian from getting lost immediately after entering the wind rift, or running around like a headless fly.
"Thank you for your gift, Immortal Lord! This thing has been a great help!"
"Haha, that's all I can do for you. Well, go ahead. I'll be waiting for your good news here!"
Yang Qian said goodbye and left.
Jade Immortal Lord could not help but ask with doubt in his heart: "Master, what is the difference between Yang Qian and you? Are you counting on him to enter the Wind Rift and solve this catastrophe?"
Liu Yu patted his apprentice on the shoulder and said, "Young man Yu, do you know why I brought you here?
It is because Yang Qian was involved with me through you that you are also in the same boat. Otherwise, you would not be able to catch up with this benefit.
Have you ever heard of the person who is destined to suffer the calamity? Haha, that’s right, Yang Qian is the person who is destined to suffer the calamity, and he is the key to solving this great calamity of heaven and earth!”
The one who is destined to be calamity?! Jade Immortal was stunned at first, but then he realized everything at once. No wonder his master had been so lenient to Yang Qian along the way. It turned out that this was the reason.
"So what is this ship that Master is talking about?"
"Stupid disciple, don't you understand? We don't know whether the great men in the Heavenly Palace are alive or dead, and the main areas of the upper world are still under ban. Who dares to say that all the people in the Heavenly Palace are dead? And now that the catastrophe is approaching, we have to find a way to survive.
But even if he survived and avoided the heavenly calamity, what if the Heavenly Palace comes back again?
Yang Qian is a man who has been robbed of his calamity. He has many mysteries in his hands, and there will definitely be a time when he will rise to a higher level. It is better to get in touch with him as soon as possible, so that you can be invincible after the great calamity. Otherwise, if the Heavenly Palace comes back, how can you and I resist the power of the former Immortal Emperor?" "Master, are there really Immortal Emperors in this world? This poison is so powerful, shouldn't they have died the first time?"
"My silly disciple, look at the past ten thousand years, among all the immortal masters in the demon race, who has achieved the status of Immortal Emperor? Is it because of insufficient talent? Is it because of insufficient accumulation?
Hey, neither.
The number of immortal emperors that the world can accommodate is limited. If the ones in front are occupying the positions, how can we accommodate new ones? Therefore, we cannot fall behind in this rear road.
Yu boy, you must remember this. In addition, the matter of "Heaven and Earth Righteous Qi Sutra" remains sealed. No one can tell anyone. If we die in the end, how can other monsters survive? We should die together."
"Master, rest assured. Everyone who knows about the Heaven and Earth Righteous Qi Art has kept their mouths shut. No one will know until you give your nod."
"That's good."
"Master, you said Yang Qian has made great progress, but his cultivation is still too low. Can he handle it?"
"Low? Haha, the methods of the person who is destined to be calamity are beyond your imagination. Moreover, you think his cultivation is low now, but you probably won't say that the next time you see him."
"Master, I don't understand. Yang Qian is currently in the early stage of the Golden Immortal Realm. Even if he can really break through this time, he will only be in the middle stage of the Golden Immortal Realm. Isn't this still too far away?"
Liu Yu shook her head, not interested in talking to her "ignorant" disciple, and left the wind vent and returned to her secret room to meditate. In two months, it would be the fourth time she would enter the wind rift. She still needed to prepare well.
Unlike Jade Immortal Lord who stayed there and pondered to no avail, Yang Qian did not stop at all after leaving the Wind Rift, and went straight out of the upper world and returned to the middle domain.
Prepare to find a remote location for the final sprint.
On the way, they passed by the Void City in the Western Heaven Realm, which was also the Jade City to which Qingchi belonged before.
Unlike the prosperity he saw last time he came here, this time all Yang Qian could see was a dead silence and densely packed corpses thrown everywhere like rag bags.
A mummy to be precise.
This was not the first time Yang Qian had seen someone killed by poisonous spirit energy, but it was the most shocking one.
Because there were just too many corpses.
Every few steps in the huge void city, you can see mummies lying on the ground, in the corners, and on the stalls.
The mummies all had bulging eyes, open mouths, and withered bodies. It was obvious that they were all unwilling to die at the moment before they died.
This kind of scene made Yang Qian's understanding of the "great catastrophe" clearer, and he couldn't help but think of the scene he had experienced in the Beixuan Realm.
The evil cultivator Jiang Yuhe's method at the beginning was to suck people dry and turn them into mummies, and he could do it from a distance without having to be there in person, but using some magic arrays to accomplish it.
"It seems that the cause of this catastrophe has little to do with heaven and earth." Yang Qian thought to himself. (End of this chapter)
