As the Glazed Stone Soul slowly appeared, the map in Qin Hao's mind grew ever clearer.
Comparing the two...
Qin Hao's expression turned utterly strange.
"Where does this map lead?"
"Could it be the entrance to the Great Gang Hidden Land?"
"And what does the Stone Man Essence have to do with the Skyward Gang Sect? Why would such a strange map appear?"
Countless questions sprang up in Qin Hao's mind.
Unfortunately, no one could answer him.
The Great Lake.
The largest lake in the Skyward Gang Relic.
The lake was nearly half the size of the Earthly Baleful Zone. But it lay in the Heavenly Gang Zone, which was itself more than ten times larger than the Earthly Baleful Zone.
So even the Great Lake seemed rather inconspicuous in the Heavenly Gang Zone.
At that moment,
in the depths of the Great Lake,
an ice-cold "corpse" was sinking rapidly toward the bottom.
"Roar!"
"Awooo!"
Great Demons with enormous fish heads or the forms of crocodiles swam through the lake. Their auras were formidable; even the weakest were Level Four High Rank.
Among them were plenty at the peak of Level Four, comparable to Half-Step Venerables.
Some noticed the corpse, but none attacked.
As descendants of ancient species, these Great Demons were far from mindless.
Those that had survived this long could restrain themselves, no matter how bloodthirsty and brutal their natures.
They would have attacked and devoured a Saint Martial Grandmaster without hesitation. But a corpse...
They paid it no mind at all.
The corpse kept sinking.
At last, it settled on the lakebed.
The corpse was none other than Chen Jianqing.
Chen Jianqing's eyes were wide open. His Five Viscera and Six Bowels had been violently shaken, and his injuries were as severe as they could be.
