The sword diagram, originally ordinary and unremarkable, took on an entirely different appearance in Ye Lin's eyes.
Ye Lin only felt that he had entered another world. Strands of true sword intent flowed around him, all manner of sword laws wandering freely through the surroundings, waiting for him to comprehend and command them.
Like the sea, Ye Lin greedily absorbed the information around him.
Countless fragments of information were frantically comprehended by Ye Lin.
Ye Lin had already entered a state of deep focus. His comprehension of the Sword Dao was soaring at breakneck speed, while the power of his own laws gradually grew more profound.
Meanwhile, Shangguan Wanyu walked barefoot across the desert alone.
The sand on the desert's surface was scorching hot, burning beneath her feet, but to Shangguan Wanyu, it was nothing at all.
She walked alone through this desert where yellow sands filled the sky. As far as the eye could see, there was only desolation, without the slightest trace of life.
Shangguan Wanyu walked through the desert as though possessed.
While everyone else was in seclusion, seizing every moment to cultivate and grow stronger, she simply continued onward through the desert.
"Fortune should lie here."
As she walked, Shangguan Wanyu suddenly stopped. Looking at the flat ground before her, she murmured softly.
Then, without further hesitation, Shangguan Wanyu stared at the level ground and abruptly struck out with her palm.
The flat ground before her instantly collapsed, and streams of blackish-purple gas gradually seeped out from the surface of the sunken area.
That blackish-purple gas continuously radiated an incomparably evil aura.
"As expected. I guessed right."
"This place is precisely where my fortune lies."
Looking at the ruins before her, Shangguan Wanyu's face lit up with delight.
Her intuition from before had indeed been right.
