Outside a barren mountain in Liangzhou Circuit, Zuo Wujiang led a group of Divine Dao Alliance martial artists into hiding. At regular intervals, a Divine Dao Alliance martial artist would come to report the movements of the Heroes Association.
Behind them, within that barren mountain, was a man-made fissure, from which an icy, sinister aura wafted out.
Wang Yu surveyed the tomb within the mountain's belly with great interest. He reckoned that if White Impermanence came here, he would definitely be interested in what lay inside.
Though ancient martial arts were somewhat rigid, many people had indeed blazed different paths.
The martial artists of that era could only be described as wild and unconstrained in their thinking. Roads that later generations neither dared imagine nor had ever walked had all been carved out by them.
More importantly, some of those things could not even be called martial arts. Calling them sinister secret arts would be more fitting.
White Impermanence had once excavated the tomb of a small ancient kingdom. That king had actually used over ten thousand people as burial sacrifices, sealing their vital blood with a grand formation in an attempt to refine himself into an immortal, indestructible zombie. In the end, however, he had created nothing but a monster without any intelligence.
In ancient times, Liangzhou Circuit had belonged to the territory of the Thirty-Six Western Regions Kingdoms. Those small Western Region kingdoms had truly known how to play. Their martial paths were neither righteous nor demonic; calling them heretical paths would be more appropriate. They were all exceedingly bizarre, and the tombs they built were likewise famously wicked.
As Wang Yu let his thoughts run wild, he heard Zuo Wujiang say, "They're here! All disciples below the Spirit Transformation Realm, enter the tomb and lie in ambush.
