"This desert was rather interesting. The reason it had been listed as a dangerous forbidden zone, the fundamental cause of the deaths of living beings passing through here, should lie in the nature of these grains of sand. It was somewhat similar to the desert regions that once existed in the Devouring Realm. This entire desert had formed from the accumulation of countless weathered corpses. Long ago, many creatures of the Zero Realm must have died here, right?"
Although Zhang Chen rode through the Solitary Soul Desert without coming into direct contact with the sand, he could faintly hear every grain emitting a weak wail, attempting to disturb his mind.
"That was a long time ago. There used to be a Great Realm here called the Sand Realm, and its central city, Sand China, had been fairly prosperous in the previous era. Unfortunately, they offended someone they should not have offended and suffered the fate of total extermination. The Zero Realm consciousness did not intervene either. With the Great Realm shattered and its kingly status reclaimed, this wasteland came into being."
As Yu Ming finished speaking, the hand that had been holding the reins suddenly swung forward at the desert floor before them.
When a golden palm print carrying the might of an emperor visibly stamped itself onto the desert's surface, ripples spread outward. In an instant, all the noisy cries of vengeful souls surrounding their ears vanished. Nothing unusual happened during the rest of their journey.
"This desert is even larger than I imagined. By the way, how is Miss A Qin doing? I haven't asked about her for quite some time. Her injuries should have been the most severe, right? How has her recovery been?"
"A Qin's body has recovered eighty or ninety percent. She's in here."
