The Terrifying Ruins in the Human-Strange Entity Market (8000)

The flame was pale green and looked very weak, as if it were a candle that couldn't be lit. However, when Xu Bai came into contact with the flame, he discovered that its power was extraordinary.

Xu Bai wasn't just protecting Chen Ting; more importantly, the fact that the other party desperately wanted to kill Chen Ting proved that Chen Ting was definitely of great use.

He would certainly not let the enemy succeed in what they wanted to do, otherwise he would be the one who suffered the loss.

The most obvious feeling is heat, a heat that seems to emanate from the depths of the heart and can scorch the heavens.

Following the surrounding fragments, Xu Bai saw the Black Saber Hundred Rends vanish in an instant.

The Black Saber Hundred Rends was ultimately made of materials of only around the fourth grade. Even with Xu Bai's dark light and gale protection, it still couldn't withstand such high temperatures.

In just a moment, the Black Saber Hundred Rends fragments, leaving only the hilt.

"Come!"

The knife is gone, but it's not a big problem.

The green flame had weakened considerably. Xu Bai threw the hilt of his sword, letting it melt in the green flame. Then he raised his hands and charged straight at it.

As his hands touched the green flames, a scorching sensation instantly washed over him. The dark light of the Vajra Heart Demon Body shattered in the blink of an eye. The next moment, Xu Bai used the Grafting Flowers onto Trees Technique.

Part of the sea of fire shot directly into the sky, turning the entire sky a ghastly green. As the fire spread, not even a single cloud remained in that area of the sky.

A sharp pain shot through his hands as they melted in the flames.

"Benefactor Xu, I'm here to help you!"

At that moment, Wu Hua's voice rang out.

Waves of Buddhist light intertwined around him, then transitioned to Xu Bai. It was clear that Wu Hua's face was deathly pale, and blood was flowing from the corner of his mouth, indicating that he was forcing his potential to the limit.

"Young Master!"

Ye Zi waved her hands forcefully, dancing wildly, creating afterimages in mid-air, blood flowing from her fingernails, but she seemed unaware that the mechanical class was playing.

A melodious tune descended from the sky, enveloping Xu Bai completely.

"Golden Silk Gu, transform!"

Miao Xiao couldn't afford to be idle for even a moment, pointing at the Golden Silk Gu in her hand.

The Golden Silk Gu is gradually turning into a sky full of golden dust.

"Puff!"

Miao Xiao coughed up blood, but gritted her teeth and persevered.

Buddha's light, music, gold powder.

As the three items converged, Xu Bai felt his True Yuan Power within his body surge as if it were boiling.

His hands had already melted, but at this moment, driven by his True Yuan Power, his Undying Body was temporarily elevated to a higher level.

As his hands gradually recovered, Xu Bai slowly raised his hand and punched the green flames in front of him.

His clothes were burned away by the flames, but with this punch, the green flames dimmed and became only one-third of their original size.

Although the flames still raged across the sky, they had been dispersed and no longer fell.

"Again!"

Xu Bai roared angrily.

The Buddhist light and music surrounding him, along with the gold dust transformed from the Golden Silk Gu, gathered on his fist as he moved his right hand.

The fist emitted a multicolored light, containing terrifying energy.

He doesn't know any boxing techniques, that's alright, we don't need to now.

With his left hand, fingers spread wide, forming a hand-blade shape, he forcefully chopped down at the green flame in front of him.

Using your hand as a knife, Chess Saber Five Styles!

When the hand blade came into contact with the flames, the flames could no longer be contained and turned into a sky full of green.

This complex confrontation seemed long, but it was only the moment Xu Bai jumped into the sky that he experienced various cycles of life and death.

"Call..."

The surrounding temperature is decreasing, and although the green flames still fill the sky, the threat has been eliminated.

Xu Bai let out a long breath and fell from the sky. Then he felt his legs go weak and he almost couldn't stand up.

This green flame is really strong, after all, it was formed using the remains of the Li Fire Altar.

The Li Fire Altar was one of the components of the Five Elements Demon Altar Formation, a formation capable of annihilating human geniuses. Even if it is only one part of it, even if only remnants remain, its power is still extremely terrifying.

Xu Bai's True Yuan Power was exhausted, but it was recovering rapidly.

He neither retreated nor advanced, but simply looked at the people around him.

The surroundings were completely silent, so quiet you could hear a pin drop.

Although the remnants of the Gu God Sect were gathered around, they all remained silent after witnessing the scene before them.

They wanted to speak, but they no longer knew what to say.

What are you saying? Are you going to threaten us again? We couldn't even handle the Li Fire Altar, how could we possibly win? A figure moved, the leader of this group of remnants.

The leader had an ordinary appearance but extremely complicated eyes. "If word gets out about today's battle, I'm afraid no one can shake his title as the number one expert among the younger generation. He truly deserves to be called the Blood Slaughtering Saber Wielder."

"Enduring the Li Fire Altar, wow, impressive..."

His tone was extremely dry; although he seemed to be recounting something, the act of speaking about it made him feel bitter.

"I won." Xu Bai stared at the person, frantically recovering.

At this moment, he was completely naked, all of his clothes had been burned in the previous moment, but he did not back down, because he could not let the other party see that he was somewhat weak at this moment.

"No, you haven't won." The leader gritted his teeth and said, "I don't know how long you intend to seal your memories away, but we made a promise back then. The successor of the Miao Sect is here, and I've given you the Golden Silk Gu. What are you waiting for!"

This was not said to Xu Bai.

Xu Bai was slightly taken aback. He seemed to have thought of something, and suddenly turned his head and shouted, "Stay away from Chen Ting!"

Without him saying anything, Wu Hua and the others were not stupid either, and they returned to Xu Bai's side in no time, staring at Chen Ting was standing there dumbfounded.

Wu Hua and the others were also seriously injured. They had given their all to support Xu Bai earlier, and it would be difficult for them to fight again now.

Chen Ting looked puzzled. "What are you talking about?"

The leader gritted his teeth and said, "Back then, you were repeatedly tortured by those lowly people. You wanted to die, but I saved you."

"You said you wanted revenge, and I agreed. I used the Heart Devouring Gu to seal away part of your memories, and Miao Zheng also gave you the Golden Silk Gu. Look at your left hand."

Chen Ting looked bewildered and subconsciously lifted her sleeve, only to find a golden line connecting her wrist to her arm.

"What's this?"

"I... uh!"

She suddenly clutched her head and squatted down on the ground, trembling slightly, as if in extreme pain.

"Let's do it!"

Xu Bai knew that this was not the time to restore the other party's memories. Although he didn't understand the relationship, it was never wrong to take action now.

Having just recovered some of his True Yuan Power, Xu Bai used the Movement Break Fourth Cycle technique to approach Chen Ting, wielding his sword with his hand and unleashing the Chess Saber Five Styles.

Just as he was about to reach Chen Ting's head, Chen Ting reached out her right hand and grabbed Xu Bai's wrist.

The immense force actually brought Xu Bai to a stop.

Xu Bai was startled and quickly retreated after breaking free.

"I remember now..."

Chen Ting's body stopped trembling, and she slowly stood up from the ground. Her eyes were no longer blank; instead, they were filled with endless hatred.

The overwhelming hatred, like a sea of blood, and the soaring resentment caused the green flames in the sky to tremble.

"What exactly is going on..." Wu Hua asked instinctively upon seeing this scene.

Before Xu Bai could answer, Chen Ting suddenly spoke up.

"This was all a setup by me."

Chen Ting's eyes were icy cold, filled with boundless hatred.

"I sealed away my memories, and had them secretly feed me living corpses every day. Even the memories that were finally awakened were covered up."

"The only way to use the Golden Silk Gu is not to raise it with a corpse, but to use a living corpse to completely absorb the Golden Silk Gu."

"And I am a living corpse..."

As soon as she finished speaking, dense lividity appeared on her body.

But her aura was that of a living person, not a corpse.

"Because of the taboos of the Corpse Collector lineage, coupled with boundless hatred, I actually turned around and devoured the Golden Silk Gu."

"This is..."

A gust of wind suddenly appeared.

In this wind, Chen Ting slowly rose into the air and floated in mid-air.

The surrounding green flames vanished with a wave of her hand, and then Chen Ting was surrounded by a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood.

It can fly.

The Heavenly Change.

The combination of the two... transforms into the mortal realm.

This is a true transformation into a mortal, not the strange blood-red hair of Half-Step Transcendent.

"Hahaha!" the leader laughed loudly, "It's done, it's finally done! My plan was right after all. Now, you should fulfill your promise!"

As he spoke, the leader pointed at Xu Bai and said, "Kill him, unleash the remaining Demon-Strange Entity Market mark he left behind, and then, with the help of the Li Fire Altar, plunge the entire Soaring Cloud Prefecture into the Human-Strange Entity Market!"

Xu Bai listened intently from the side, silently replenishing his internal True Yuan Power as he listened.

He didn't speak; he simply recovered, because saying anything now would be useless. A major battle might break out at any moment, so the real priority was to focus on recovery.

Now, upon hearing the leader mention the Human-Strange Entity Market, he raised an eyebrow.

Sure enough, this guy not only targeted himself, but also the entire population of Soaring Cloud Prefecture.

However, the problem now lies not with the leader, but with Chen Ting.

Could a Rank 3 fighter defeat a Mortal Transformation cultivator? Xu Bai had no idea.

He had only fought the Blood-Haired Monster, Half-Step Transcendent Realm, and won, but both sides suffered heavy losses.

But now, he has no choice.

Chen Ting raised her head and looked in the direction of the leader.

The mountain of corpses and sea of blood surrounding his body were gradually spreading. The next moment, the leader was torn to pieces and became part of the mountain of corpses and sea of blood.

"I hate people, I hate living people." Chen Ting put her hands behind her back and said slowly, "You don't need to order me around."

"The lineage of Corpse Collector has such respect for this world, such respect for people, and even more so for corpses."

"But what became of me? I was treated like an animal by those people. So, before I cooperated with you, I had already thought it through."

"I will kill anyone I see until I am killed."

As she spoke, Chen Ting's gaze slowly shifted and settled on Xu Bai.

"Including you."

Even if you avenge me, it won't stop my hatred.

Xu Bai: "..."

This is completely unreasonable! I helped her get revenge, and she still wants to kill me. It's so rude.

"Let's start with these people first."

Chen Ting completely ignored Xu Bai's gaze and waved her hand indifferently. Suddenly, the mountains of corpses and seas of blood around her began to roll, like a machine that devoured flesh and blood.

The mountain of corpses and the sea of blood surged in all directions. The remnants of the Gu Gods from all directions let out miserable cries. After being crushed by the mountain of corpses and the sea of blood, they instantly turned into nothingness and became part of the mountain of corpses and the sea of blood.

This is the Transcendent Realm. Below the Transcendent Realm, everything is an ant.

Compared to the Blood-Haired Monster that Xu Bai had killed before, this one was on a completely different level, after all, the Blood-Haired Monster was only Half-Step Transcendent.

Upon seeing this scene, Xu Bai made a rough estimate.

—We can't beat them.

Although he didn't want to admit it, it was the truth. Although he only had the strength of a third-grade cultivator, he was able to fight against Half-Step Transcendent Realm cultivator.

However, regarding the Transcendent Realm...

We really can't beat them.

After Chen Ting finished doing all this, she turned to look at Xu Bai Xu Bai and the people behind him.

Ye Zi stepped forward, stood in front of Xu Bai, spread her arms, glared at Chen Ting, and said, "Young Master helped you get revenge, and you repay kindness with enmity? Is there any reason for you to do this?"

Wu Hua and Miao Xiao didn't say anything, but they still looked at Chen Ting with angry eyes.

Even Xu Bai couldn't beat them, so of course they couldn't.

Chen Ting didn't waste any words; she was filled with boundless hatred.

"I don't need anyone to avenge me; I will avenge myself."

"You have never experienced my pain, so how can you know the hatred in my heart? Right now, all I want to do is kill, kill everything I see, until I am killed myself."

"Fine, let's start with you guys!"

She was about to wave.

Just then, Xu Bai suddenly spoke up.

Can I ask you something?

Chen Ting was taken aback and lowered her hand. "I know you want to recover as quickly as possible, but that's impossible. You can't possibly defeat someone at the Transcendent Realm."

Xu Bai stroked his chin and said, "I just don't want to die a wronged death. For the sake of avenging you, please tell me the whole story, okay?"

Chen Ting paused for a second, then nodded and said, "You already know the whole story, and I've explained my situation. What else do you want to know?"

Xu Bai pointed to himself and said, "It's very simple. For example, what marks do I have on my body?"

Chen Ting said, "You went to the Demon-Strange Entity Market before and were able to come out alive, but you have been marked by the Demon-Strange Entity Market. Of course, it will disappear over time."

"So how do you plan to activate the mark?" Xu Bai asked again.

Chen Ting continued, "As long as I kill you, the mark will appear. Then, I can activate it using the Li Fire Altar, slaughter half of the people in Soaring Cloud Prefecture, and then pull them into the Human-Strange Entity Market."

"They intend to use the method of the Li Fire Altar, since it was successful before. The only difference is that since the dead are people, they will enter the Human-Strange Entity Market."

"Actually, it doesn't matter whether I kill you or not. The main thing is that after I kill you, there won't be too much trouble, since you won't resist anymore."

Xu Bai hummed in agreement but didn't say anything.

Although he didn't speak, his mind was racing.

Killing oneself is actually a way to avoid resistance; this mark of oneself can activate the Human-Strange Entity Market through the Li Fire Altar.

As Xu Bai had suspected, the activation condition was a sacrifice.

However, the offerings here are from the people of Soaring Cloud Prefecture.

The sheer number of them is enough to drag the entire Soaring Cloud Prefecture into this mess.

Xu Bai looked up at Chen Ting in the sky and suddenly had an idea.

Can we fight them? We definitely can't win.

This was also one of the few people Xu Bai had encountered who he couldn't beat since he entered the industry.

But just because he can't win doesn't mean he should give up. He doesn't know if this idea in his mind will work, but he can give it a try.

When Chen Ting saw that Xu Bai was no longer asking questions, she prepared to raise her hand and kill Xu Bai.

kill.

They must be killed.

From the moment she was humiliated by those people, all that remained in her heart was boundless hatred, and there was no longer any concept of forgiveness.

After killing Xu Bai, she would aimlessly hunt down and kill people until she was killed by someone else, at which point she would finally find relief.

Only in this way can the hatred in her heart be relieved.

Just as Chen Ting was about to kill Xu Bai, she saw Xu Bai's figure flicker and appear in front of her in the blink of an eye.

"I know you won't surrender easily, but you'll never understand that the saying 'below the Transcendent Realm, all are ants' is a profound truth about humanity."

Chen Ting sighed.

The surrounding mountains of corpses and seas of blood surged in, sealing Xu Bai off layer by layer.

But the next moment, Xu Bai acted very decisively, twisting his legs forcefully and landing on Chen Ting.

Even Chen Ting was taken aback by this ruthless action.

He cut off his own leg while he was still alive. Is this man really that cruel to himself?

In that moment of hesitation, Chen Ting was caught by Xu Bai and fell to the ground from the sky with a loud thud.

"Don't worry, everyone stay away from me!" Xu Bai shouted.

The remaining True Yuan Power within the body circulated wildly, and the method of circulation was...

The Water Adaptation Method! This technique, obtained from the Diverting Water Altar, allows him to perform normally underwater.

When the Water Adaptation Method was activated, the remnants of the Gu God Sect that Chen Ting had previously killed actually transformed into streams of flesh and blood, continuously gathering here.

"Are you crazy!" Chen Ting was stunned for a moment, then quickly realized what was happening and tried to struggle, but Xu Bai held her tightly.

The surrounding mountains of corpses and seas of blood assaulted Xu Bai, leaving him covered in wounds, but Xu Bai did not stop.

Xu Bai raised his head, a maniacal smile spreading across his face, "I'm the Blood Slaughtering Saber Wielder, when it comes to madness, who can beat me?"

He guessed right, he made the right bet.

He had previously learned that the method used by the Gu God Sect was the method of the Li Fire Altar, and Li Fire Altar and the Diverting Water Altar belonged to the same origin, the Diverting Water Altar method could also be applied.

Sure enough, it is indeed applicable.

He has the mark, the Water Adaptation Method, and the power of flesh and blood.

Although their numbers were small, these remnants of the Gu God Sect were all professionals in the field, and their physical strength was much greater than that of ordinary people, enough to bring him and this woman in together.

A huge hole appeared in the sky, and a powerful suction force came from it, preparing to suck Xu Bai into it.

The hole looked extremely terrifying, with figures swaying inside.

Each figure exuded an eeriness and a sense of vicissitude, as if they came from a distant era and were watching the world with greedy and evil eyes.

This is Human-Strange Entity Market.

"Let me go, you madman!"

Chen Ting struggled frantically, leaving wound after wound on Xu Bai's body, but to no avail.

Even... with the blessing of Xu Bai's Undying Body, his broken legs recovered.

She was held by Xu Bai, and in an instant, she was sucked into that enormous hole.

The incredibly deep void slowly closed, leaving behind Xu Bai's last words.

"Human-Strange Entity Market can't do anything to me, just like Demon-Strange Entity Market. You don't need to worry about me."

The words echoed in the air, and everything returned to calm, as if nothing had happened, except for the mess on the ground.

Ye Zi sat down on the ground, staring blankly at the sky. The void was gone, but she just tilted her head back, staring blankly at it.

Young master... was taken to that strange space again.

She suddenly felt utterly useless and angrily pounded her head.

If they had been a bit stronger, things might not have turned out this way.

Ye Zi buried her head in her knees, her face blank.

With blood trickling from the corner of his mouth, Wu Hua looked at this scene and gave a bitter smile.

He sighed and silently recited Buddhist scriptures, but his heart was filled with sorrow.

Xu Bai's actions just now deeply moved him, and at the same time, filled him with sorrow.

Speaking of Wu Hua's relationship with Xu Bai, it must be very deep, but now Xu Bai has been brought into the Human-Strange Entity Market.

What kind of place is Human-Strange Entity Market? Perhaps ordinary people in the industry don't know, but he, as a direct disciple, knows a thing or two about it.

Miao Xiao didn't know the details, but she did know that her idol seemed to have gone to a particularly dangerous place.

Beside him, the Fourth-Rank Puppet instantly lost control and collapsed to the ground.

Time passed, and no one spoke.

A sense of sadness hangs over the place and is gradually spreading.

At this moment, Ye Zi suddenly stood up, wiped the tears from her face, picked up the Fourth-Rank Puppet, and then picked up the package left by Xu Bai.

"Let's go."

Wu Hua and Miao Xiao looked at Ye Zi with wry smiles.

Ye Zi took a deep breath and said, "I believe that Young Master is alright. He was able to get out of the Demon-Strange Entity Market last time, and he will be able to do the same this time. Young Master is a miracle. I believe in him. Now we just need to go back, clean up the mess, and wait in Soaring Cloud Prefecture."

Only after Ye Zi spoke up did Wu Hua and the other person manage to calm down a bit.

But Ye Zi hadn't finished speaking. She was thinking that if he didn't return for a long time, she would follow the young master in death.

The surroundings were already like ruins, so they did not linger and headed towards Soaring Cloud Prefecture.

Ye Zi kept her fists clenched tightly, as if she had made a plan.

After everyone left, the canyon returned to its quiet state, everything as usual, waiting for the passage of time to erase all the debris scattered here.

On the other side.

Xu Bai, holding Chen Ting, was sucked into the hole and felt a chill all over his body, and everything went black.

Many afterimages were watching him from all around, constantly swaying, exuding a terrifying aura and a maddening presence.

The afterimage was driven by curiosity, but also by greed—greed for everything before it.

In the blink of an eye, everything was rapidly receding, and even the afterimages gradually disappeared. Xu Bai then landed on a patch of black soil with a thud.

Just as I landed, a piercing scream rang out beside me.

"Ah!"

Chen Ting clutched her head and rolled on the ground, as if something was gnawing at her soul.

The surrounding mountains of corpses and seas of blood gradually faded, and the next moment, Chen Ting let go of her hand, lying there with empty eyes.

No one can resist this rule; even those at the Transcendent Realm can only become idiots.

Xu Bai stood up, panting, and just as he was about to speak, the excruciating pain instantly assaulted his soul.

"Damn it, here we go again!"

He immediately squatted down, clutched his head with both hands, and began to groan in pain, shaking violently.

This is not to say that he lacks the qualities of a tough guy, nor that he is not tough; rather, it is that this kind of spiritual pain is truly unbearable for ordinary people.

"Little Gold, it's all up to you."

Xu Bai rolled his eyes and promptly fainted.

Having a cheat code and not using it is foolish.

The next moment.

A terrifying golden light rose from his body, soaring straight into the sky with an unstoppable momentum, sweeping away the surrounding blood-red hue.

Within the golden light, a powerful aura swept over, sacred and solemn, making it impossible to resist.

Fortunately, this situation only lasted for a moment, and the golden light quickly disappeared.

Xu Bai slowly opened his eyes, waking up from his unconsciousness, and rubbed his head.

"As expected, Little Gold is still reliable."

This is his method. Nothing happened after he entered the Demon-Strange Entity Market last time, and it will be the same this time.

Beside her, Chen Ting lay there with empty eyes, staring at the blood-red sky.

Xu Bai stretched his body, stepped forward, and pressed his hand against Chen Ting's forehead.

"Snap!"

A crisp sound rang out, and Chen Ting lost her life force, turning into a corpse.

"Hmm... We need to get out of here as soon as possible this time." Xu Bai turned around and looked around at his surroundings.

All around him was still a blood-red color, and beneath his feet was scorched black soil, which looked very similar to the Demon-Strange Entity Market, but he knew that he had arrived at the Human-Strange Entity Market.

However, unlike last time, this time it wasn't in the city, but in a wilderness.

"This is a bit complicated," Xu Bai thought to himself, stroking his chin.

Having experienced the Demon-Strange Entity Market before, he understood that whether it was the Demon-Strange Entity Market or the Human-Strange Entity Market, there was nothing else there besides disgust for the living and murderous intent.

There were no tricks, nothing else, just raw, unadulterated slaughter.

The eeriness here is conscious, but it also loathes people.

This was an extremely dangerous place, and Xu Bai felt he couldn't stay any longer; he had to find a way to leave.

"Last time, I left through that strange formation, and this time it should be the same," Xu Bai thought to himself.

Thinking of this, he slowly raised his right hand.

True Yuan Power circulated within his body, and then a golden compass appeared in mid-air.

— Feng Shui Calculation Scripture.

If you don't know where you are or what to do next, what should you do next?

It's very simple, just do a divination.

As Xu Bai used this skill, the golden compass began to emit a faint light, and the pointer on it spun wildly. Then, the pointer slowly stopped and pointed in one direction.

"Hmm... this location." Xu Bai stroked his chin, thinking to himself, "Let's go take a look first."

He looked around and saw that his body was completely naked; there was nothing he could do about it, since everything had been burned away by the fire.

"My capital is quite good," Xu Bai said with a smile.

The more dangerous the place, the more positive you need to be, Xu Bai joked to himself before walking in the direction the pointer was pointing.

The Human-Strange Entity Market and the Demon-Strange Entity Market looked almost identical; the ground beneath our feet was still scorched black soil, stained with a little blood, while the surroundings were all blood red.

Even the sky above was blood red, a sight that sent chills down one's spine.

Xu Bai's feet were firmly planted on the soft ground as he continued walking in that direction.

He didn't move fast along the way, but he was careful with every step.

This place is different from the Great Chu Kingdom; it is full of strangeness and danger.

Although Xu Bai didn't encounter anything strange while walking around here, it's normal not to see anything strange in this desolate place.

However, we should always be careful, so that we can deal with it if one suddenly appears.

After walking in this direction for about an hour, Xu Bai stopped, looking at what lay ahead with a deep frown.

Not far ahead, there is a pile of ruins.

It's called ruins, but it should be considered a city wall, though it's much more desolate than the Demon-Strange Entity Market we were in before.

The city wall was in ruins, and most of the plaques on it had fallen off, the characters of which were blurred and illegible.

On the city wall, there are still many dried bloodstains, which are dark brown in color.

The city gate was open, or rather, there was no city gate at all; from the outside, it looked like a desolate street.

The houses on both sides were dilapidated, with broken tiles even on the roofs.

Even with the golden compass to guide us, we shouldn't rashly enter this cursed place.

He lingered outside for a while, and after confirming that there was nothing unusual, he cautiously walked towards the city gate.

The closer you get to this ruined city, the stronger the stench of blood becomes.

Having worked in this line of work for a long time, Xu Bai was extremely sensitive to the smell of blood. He stopped outside the city gate and looked inside.

It was still quiet inside; there wasn't a trace of anything eerie about it.

After thinking for a moment, Xu Bai lifted his foot and walked inside.

Xu Bai had expected something unusual to happen, but nothing did. He walked a long way until he entered the city, and nothing suddenly appeared.

The golden compass hovered in mid-air, its pointer still pointing in one direction, indicating that he should head towards that location.

As Xu Bai walked, he cautiously looked around.

The surrounding area was in ruins. He hadn't been able to see it clearly from a distance, but as he got closer, he realized that the marks and damage were fresh.

"It seems there was a fight here. The entire city was destroyed, hence the ruins," Xu Bai thought to himself.

He mustered all his strength and continued walking forward.

After walking for about half an hour, the view ahead finally opened up.

A vast open space appeared before them, and in the center of the open space was a circular platform.

Xu Bai was very familiar with this circular platform; he had used it to leave the Demon-Strange Entity Market before.

You only need to inject your True Yuan Power into it to leave, but you still need one more thing: the city lord's token.

This place is desolate. Where can I find the city lord's plaque? Xu Bai fell into deep thought.

Finding a sign in a city is quite difficult, so he thought about it and decided to try using Feng Shui Calculation Scripture.

"Give it a try, the sooner the better."

With this in mind, Xu Bai decided to give it a try.

But just as he was about to begin, something unusual finally happened.
