Chapter 10: Speak More If You Can

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

At this moment, Feng Xia wondered if he had eaten too many roasted spiders and accumulated too much toxin, causing him to have a terrifying illusion…

Inception Realm… and powerhouse?

What is the matter with you, little brothers?

Feng Xia’s mouth twitched involuntarily. At this moment, he suddenly thought of a few lines he had read on Weibo before he transmigrated.

During the Body Training Period of an expert, he was the most terrifying!

During the Qi Refinement Period of a veteran, he was the most invincible!

During the Foundation Establishment Period of a supreme being, he could suppress an entire era!

“Heck, what the hell has the outside world become after 3,000 years?”

Feng Xia really felt like complaining.

Patriarch Chenhai, was this also part of your plan?!

“No matter what, it’s a good thing that the Ancient Forsaken Land has opened up and outsiders have arrived…” Feng Xia took a deep breath and stood up under the ancient tree.

“At the very least … I can get the hell out of here.”

The Ancient Forsaken Land had everything and yet nothing.

He could stay here alone until the end of time and not worry about starving to death, but there were only a few things he could do every day, i.e. eat, sleep, and kill spiders.

As the days dragged on, Feng Xia was sure that he would go mad.

“In that case, senior Chenhai is indeed a senior. After being locked up here for more than 3,000 years, his thoughts are still clear and he’s still so kind even after 3,000 years…”

It’s very rare, so truly rare!

Putting himself in that position of being the one being suppressed by the seal, Feng Xia pondered for a moment and felt that he might have already started to take revenge on society…

“You’re leaving?”

The black-haired girl in the treetop seemed stunned. She was silent for a moment before she squeezed out a few words.

Immediately, the girl jumped down from the treetop high above and walked barefoot with light steps to Feng Xia’s side. “Take me with you.”

Feng Xia was slightly stunned to hear that. “You want to come with me?”

“Not with you.”

The girl sneered and puffed out her cheeks. She pointed at the skewer sticks in Feng Xia’s hand. “I’m coming with these.”

She thought for a moment, then added, “And to kill you as well.”

Now you remember what you wanted to do in the first place?

Feng Xia silently complained in his heart. Then he remembered he had another question. “Then again, why did you want to kill me before?”

The way they met could be said to be rather strange. The girl had inexplicably wanted to kill him, then snatched his skewers for no reason. Now, she seemed to be hooked on the skewers…

“Because of these.”

The girl pointed at the skewer sticks in Feng Xia’s hand again.

Feng Xia: ???

“This girl really doesn’t seem very smart…”

“Forget it, so be it. We can go together if you want. In any case, the most important thing now is to leave the Ancient Forsaken Land.” Feng Xia shook his head and thought to himself, “Who knows when this damned place will close up again…”

“But if I leave, what will happen to senior Chenhai?”

Feng Xia hesitated again at the thought.

Although Patriarch Chenhai had a strange temper and was unforgiving with his words, he was still the first person he knew after transmigrating. Moreover, the patriarch had even imparted a cultivation technique to him and been his sparring partner for a long time!

It made Feng Xia unable to leave the moment the Ancient Forsaken Land opened up.

“You can’t help him.”

Noticing the change in Feng Xia’s expression, the black-haired girl pursed her lips. “That old man is being suppressed in the Ancient Forsaken Land, but it’s not the Ancient Forsaken Land that is suppressing him. Even if the Ancient Forsaken Land opened up, it’s impossible for him to leave from here. Unless the powerhouse who suppressed him returns one day and personally removes the seal for him.”

Feng Xia’s expression darkened.

“Or maybe,” the girl added after a moment. “If you can become stronger than that powerhouse, you can just as easily return here to break the seal.”

“You make a good point.”

Feng Xia considered that for a moment, then nodded.

He suddenly turned around and bowed three times to the towering ancient tree. “Senior Chenhai, I’m still very weak now and can’t remove the seal for you, but sooner or later… I’ll return!”

At this moment, an old voice sounded intermittently from the depths of the sea of clouds that had been silent for a long time.

“You… you… go… just go…”

“Senior, are you awake?”

Feng Xia was overjoyed.

In the beginning, Feng Xiai could see Patriarch Chenhai almost every day. However, as the patriarch used up his strength, he appeared less and less. He had no choice but to enter a deep slumber to recover his strength.

The last time Feng Xia saw Patriarch Chenhai in the “dream” was almost a month ago!

Therefore, he did not expect that when he was hesitating about whether to leave, Patriarch Chenhai would actually forcefully wake up from the slumber just to resolve the conflict in his heart!

From the intermittent voice, it was obvious that it was extremely difficult for Patriarch Chenhai to wake up this time. He could fall asleep again at any time!

“Feng Xia will never forget your kindness to me!”

Feng Xia took another deep bow.

Next to him, the black-haired girl’s expression changed slightly. Only when Feng Xia got up again did she mutter softly, “Strange… Is that old man Chenhai really so kind?”

However, Patriarch Chenhai indeed fell silent again after saying those few words.

Feng Xia took a long look at the sea of clouds behind him and suddenly walked to the towering ancient tree where he usually cultivated. He picked up a handful of soil from under the tree and kept it safely before turning around and walking towards the light bridge.

One day, I will return!

Although the black-haired girl felt that something was wrong, she did not think too deeply about it for the sake of the good food. She quickly shook her head and chased up, following behind Feng Xia quietly.

After a long period of time, a voice sounded again from the sea of clouds.

“Once you’ve left… don’t… come back again… where did the kid go?!”

…

On the other side.

The party from the Thousand Autumn Valley was already on the bright Divine Light Bridge, crossing the bottomless abyss and approaching the edge of the Ancient Forsaken Land.

“According to the records in some ancient books, the Ancient Forsaken Land is a piece of land that fell from the sky. On the day it fell, billions of divine lights erupted, attracting the attention of countless powerful people in the world.”

“It’s said that in the Ancient Forsaken Land, there are incomparably ancient divine trees and divine flowers, as well as rare beasts that have gone extinct in the Xuanwu Kingdom. There are even remnants of ancient divine miracles that have survived through the years… We only need one of these opportunities to have the capital to rise up. From now on, revitalizing the Thousand Autumn Valley will no longer be an extravagant wish!”

The white-robed youth in the lead held his sword in one hand and looked into the distance. At the same time, he reminded his fellow disciples in a loud voice.

The Thousand Autumn Valley had been silent for too long.

Once upon a time, the Thousand Autumn Valley was the most important holy land of the Xuanwu Kingdom. Whenever the Thousand Autumn Decree was issued, even the royal family of the Xuanwu Kingdom would have to bow down, and they would not dare to disobey the orders of the Thousand Autumn Valley.

However, the disaster that happened 300 years ago had changed everything.

The eldest disciple defected, and the sect’s senior people suffered huge casualties. The most important holy land collapsed overnight, falling from the Nine Heavens Imperial Court into the endless abyss!

After that, there were signs of a resurgence in the Thousand Autumn Valley. However, in the end, these signs would eventually disappear like breaking waves on a river. In the end, it fell silent as the years went by.

After 300 years, no one remembered the Thousand Autumn holy land of the past anymore. The only people who remembered… were them!

“Follow closely. The Divine Light Bridge has a limited area. Once you fall from the bridge, you’ll fall into a bottomless abyss. Even I can’t save you.”

As the young man in white spoke, he suddenly noticed that his companions looked a little nervous. He changed the topic and said with a smile, “However, don’t be too nervous, everyone. Just maintain a certain level of vigilance. After all, the records regarding the Ancient Forsaken Land are too ancient. In the entire Xuanwu Kingdom… only the Thousand Autumn Valley has it.”

He smiled and continued, “We’re the only ones who know about the records of the Ancient Forsaken Land. We’re the only ones who will come here. We have three days to fully explore this place before the Divine Light Bridge breaks and we won’t have any competitors…”

Before he could finish speaking, the young man in white suddenly caught his breath. His pupils constricted as he looked into the distance in disbelief.

At the end of the Divine Light Bridge stood two figures, one tall and one short. Among the two, the young man was smiling warmly and looking at him with a slight bow.

“There’s people in front of us!!”

“Could there be a mole in the Thousand Autumn Valley?”

Bai Canghai’s pupils suddenly constricted, and he grabbed the three-foot-long sword with his right hand. The vital energy in his body surged and his qi was boundless. It seemed like he was about to swing the sword on the spot!

However, he held back his impulse.

This was because his junior brothers and sisters were all behind him. At this moment, they were still on the Divine Light Bridge, surrounded by a bottomless abyss. If a fight broke out, they would be at a disadvantage!

“May I ask who you are?”

Swallowing hard, Bai Canghai took a step forward and protected his junior brothers and sisters behind him before speaking in a low voice.

It looks like we can still communicate… Feng Xia nodded to himself.

However, before he could answer, the black-haired girl beside him had already beaten him to it. She said with a grin, “Why don’t you guess?!”

Young lady, since you can talk, why don’t you talk more?

Feng Xia almost spluttered.

Bai Canghai felt his scalp go numb when he locked onto those eyes without pupils. At this moment, a notorious name in the Xuanwu Kingdom suddenly jumped into his mind like a shooting star.

“These eyes… You’re the demoness from the Hundred Nether Sect!!”

“… How about … guess again?”

…
