Jiang Ming stood at the highest point, waiting for the arrival of midnight.

“Looking forward to it?” Wang Qiutong stood by his side.

She had completely recovered.

“Sort of!” Jiang Ming nodded, “The Lost Land, shrouded in fog, weakens the strength of those above the Ninth Realm. At midnight, the silent transformation of heaven and earth takes place. If its range was small, it would be fine, but in the Warzone of Ten Thousand Tribes, the extent is too broad, beyond human reach!”

“All this seems far from naturally evolved, but rather deliberately arranged.”

“Perhaps, this is the method of the gods!”

“Gods, what kind of existence are they?”

Jiang Ming gazed up at the sky, his mind churning.

He already knew that in the present heaven and earth, the Twelfth Realm is the ultimate limit, but many things suggest that gods exist in the human world.

World of secret realm, World Gate, Cosmic Fog, Lost Land, Myriad Realms City, and so forth.

“I have a feeling, the so-called cosmos is but a cage,” Wang Qiutong stood there with her clothes fluttering, looking out at the vast wilderness, “and the Warzone of Ten Thousand Tribes is nothing but a stage.”

“Cage, stage?” Liu Ruyan arrived, holding a small flower in her hand. It radiated a three-color glow and carried a fresh fragrance, “To us now, it doesn’t matter. When one day, our cultivation level steps into the Twelfth Realm, then we will truly be qualified to explore.”

Jiang Ming and Wang Qiutong nodded in agreement.

What level of secret can be explored with what level of ability.

Midnight was approaching.

Jiang Ming’s aura had already reached its peak, his blood qi at boiling point, his Qi revolving, his soul power reverberating, even his heart power was flowing out.

He was in his prime state.

“Midnight, has arrived!” Wang Qiutong whispered.

Under the night sky, the mountains remained mountains, the fog remained fog.

There seemed to be no change at all, but everything had been transformed.

“I can’t perceive what power is at work,” Jiang Ming frowned deeply, “In silence, the world has shifted. Now sensing Xuanhuang City, it seems…very far, very far away.”

“Indeed, it is very far.” Liu Ruyan narrowed her eyes, “Xuanhuang City is far away, Sky Martial City is also far away, judging from this, we are at least a hundred thousand li away.”

Then she gave a bitter smile, “This is troublesome!”

“No, it’s more than ten thousand li, far beyond.” Wang Qiutong closed her eyes, “I’ll go back and bring reinforcements, according to the sensing comparison, we are probably more than a hundred thousand kilometers away from Xuanhuang City.”

“A hundred thousand kilometers?” Liu Ruyan’s breath hitched.

Jiang Ming was also taken aback.

A hundred thousand kilometers is too far.

If they were to rush back, they do not know how many dangers they would encounter along the way.

Traveling through the Lost Land, it would definitely not be feasible in one day. If the transformation occurs again…

Even rushing through the Realm of Heart is not safe, because they might encounter creatures of the Realm of Heart.

“Perhaps, this is the real danger of the Lost Land, and it’s also the protection for the city where the World Gate is located,” Jiang Ming said, “with our strength, it’s not difficult to return, even though there might be some twists and turns.”

Wang Qiutong nodded silently.

But at that moment, Jiang Ming sniffed, frowned, and said, “There’s a rich stench of blood in the air. It seems to be rolling in from outside. I’m afraid there’s been a brutal battle nearby.”

“I smell it too, and there’s a strong killing qi, death qi, and even…” Wang Qiutong’s eyebrows twitched violently, “curse Qi.”

Suddenly, they turned to look in the other direction, where clouds and fog were churning, and a strong wind was howling.

And then, all three of them narrowed their eyes.

A winged dragon emerged from the mist.

Its wings were ragged, devoid of flesh, leaving only a broken skeleton.

It was a bone dragon.

Immediately after, more appeared, originally expected to fly past from the side of Black Mountain, they instead turned and looked this way, blue flames dancing in their eye sockets, harboring ruthless emotions.

One dived and flew towards them.

“They are hunting.” Wang Qiutong made a judgment at the first instance, “It’s just past midnight, time for Astral Travelling, they must be coming out to hunt, their stronghold must be around here.”

Jiang Ming also came to the same conclusion.

“One Eighth Realm, four Seventh Realms, shall I try to control them?” Liu Ruyan suggested, her Martial Arts Domain evolving into an Illusion Territory.

It appeared unchanged, yet it quietly altered its trajectory, the diving Bone Dragon flying towards another direction, circling.

Right after, the Bone Dragon extended its claw towards the area in front of it.

There was nothing there.

“Leave the rest to me, I will probe their memories!” Jiang Ming said as he leapt into the air, breaking directly into the Illusion Territory.

Liu Ruyan also made slight adjustments, which caused Jiang Ming to land on the strongest Bone Dragon.

Jiang Ming stood on a skull as big as a house, a light emerging from his brow, his Soul Power invaded the Bone Dragon’s Sea of Consciousness.

Awoo awoo awoo…

The Bone Dragon sensed danger and roared, but it could not fend off Jiang Ming’s attack on its Soul Power. In the blink of an eye, it was suppressed and dominated, its memories under scrutiny.

In just a moment, Jiang Ming stomped the Bone Dragon to pieces.

With a swift gesture in mid-air, a torrent of Sword Qi slain the rest of the Bone Dragons. He landed, his face looking somewhat grim.

“Jiang Ming, looking at your expression, has any forbidden area-like existence appeared around here?” Wang Qiutong smirked, “We can’t be this unlucky!” “Forbidden land?” Ye Bai rushed from the other side, and after landing, he said, “What forbidden land? I am going to exhibit my divine power this time.”

“It’s something on the level of a forbidden land, maybe even more dangerous than Black Mountain.” Jiang Ming gave a wry smile, “Ye Bai, how about I give you directions and let you go exhibit your divine power?”

“I was almost killed by the Black Mountain beneath our feet, and now there is something even more dangerous, you’re sending me to my death!” Ye Bai fretted, “Quickly, what’s the situation you checked? If it’s really dangerous, we better get out of here.”

Liu Ruyan and Wang Qiutong looked at him.

“In the direction where the Bone Dragons came from, there’s a Blood Lake.” Jiang Ming frowned, “According to the memory, the Blood Lake is vast, of incomparable viscosity, it harbors astonishingly strong Killing Qi, Death Qi, Cursed Qi, and so forth. At the bottom of the Blood Lake, lie bones and in its depths, numerous Resentful Spirits and many Undead Creatures. Every day after midnight, a large number of Undead Creatures surge out of the Blood Lake and hunt in the surrounding areas, dragging corpses back to toss into the lake.” “Didn’t they say that the Lost Land wasn’t that dangerous? What’s with all this mess!” Ye Bai was stupefied.

He felt a certain unease towards the Undead Creatures.

“Are they also related to the Abyss?” asked Wang Qiutong.

Jiang Ming shook his head: “It seems they are conceived and trapped in the Blood Lake. They hunt after midnight and return to the Blood Lake when night falls. If injured, as long as not dead, a quick recovery could be achieved by returning to the Blood Lake. It’s all quite odd.”

“Blood Lake?” Holy Heart woke up, with a single step she reached everyone’s side.

She was wrapped in white light, unassailable and sacred.

The calm expression on her face naturally exuded a noble aura.

She said to Jiang Ming: “In rumors, in the Lost Land, there’s a forbidden place called the Blood Lake. Any creature that appeared near the Blood Lake would encounter a disaster and be attacked by the Undead Creatures.”

“The Undead Creatures are endless!”

“There are also rumors that the bottom of the Blood Lake nurtures Undead Grass, Reincarnation Lotus, Life and Death Fruit, Death Divine Iron, Blood Killing Stone, Cursed Sand and other peculiar objects.”

“It is a place of death, but also a place that drives people crazy with greed.”

“It is documented that the Blood Lake itself doesn’t seem very strong, but it possesses a forbidden power that could potentially lead to the demise of a Tenth Realm.”

Holy Heart told everything she knew, “If the Blood Lake is indeed nearby, we might have to escape.”

She paused, her expression subtly complicated as she added, “The Undead Creatures are especially sensitive to abundant life forces, especially the Power of Light. I’m afraid a large number of Undead Creatures are already rushing this way, if we don’t leave now, we will be hunted.”

“They’re already here!” Wang Qiutong’s eyes sparkled, and she could see further, “There’s a heap of them, just like a tide, Bone Wolves, and Resentful Spirits.”

But Jiang Ming looked the other way.

Holy Heart followed his gaze and looked that way too, a strange look on her face.
