What you're looking for isn't here.
The law enforcement officer's voice, like unmelting ice, was devoid of any warmth, directly rejecting Su Yu's "request."
They are the embodiment of the rules of this world, the maintainers of order, not a wishing well to grant the desires of intruders.
Upon hearing this, Luo Yuan, who had been on edge, secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
She was terrified that Su Yu's arrogance would completely enrage this unfathomable being.
However, Su Yu's reaction once again exceeded her expectations.
There was no disappointment, no anger, not even the slightest emotional fluctuation.
He simply shrugged lightly, as if he had just casually asked, "How's the weather today?"
"What a pity."
Su Yu muttered a regretful remark under his breath, as if he were lamenting that he had missed out on a nice dinner.
[We still have to rely on ourselves to have enough to eat and wear.]
A thought flashed through his mind, and he turned around, giving Luo Yuan a wink.
"Walk."
In short, decisive and efficient.
Luo Yuan was stunned for a moment before she realized what was happening, and quickly followed, leaning on her spear.
The two walked away from the mysterious enforcer, their backs to him, as if the brief confrontation had never happened.
The enforcer's usually calm and collected eyes watched Su Yu's departing figure, and for the first time, a complex expression flashed deep within those lifeless eyes.
He saw the intense, almost tangible, killing aura emanating from Su Yu, and also saw the pure martial will suppressed beneath that killing aura.
Furthermore, we witnessed... the "purification" this young man brought to this filthy place in just a few hours.
Those filthy demons that had lingered for countless years, and which even they found tiresome, were wiped away in large swaths by him in an almost brutal manner.
This is a highly efficient form of "cleaning".
A kind of cleaning that conforms to some higher-level "rules".
Just as Su Yu and Luo Yuan were about to leave the basin area, that old, indifferent voice rang in their ears once again.
"In the central part of the Burial Ground, at the southernmost tip of Thunder Marsh, perhaps you can find what you're looking for."
"A King Realm... who had mastered the perfected Law of Thunder, perished there."
As soon as the words fell, on the other side of the basin, the aged figure that blended into the heavens and earth slowly dissipated into the gray mist, as if it had never existed.
Su Yu paused slightly in his steps.
He didn't turn around.
Only the corners of her lips curved into a faint smile.
Thank you.
He spoke softly, as if talking to himself, or perhaps responding to the will that had vanished into the wind.
Luo Yuan, standing to the side, turned deathly pale upon hearing the words "central region."
She grabbed Su Yu's arm suddenly, her voice trembling slightly. "The central region? No! We absolutely can't go!"
Su Yu turned his head and looked at her calmly.
Luo Yuan took a deep breath, forcing herself to calm down, and explained as quickly as possible, "My ancestor's notes clearly state that the outer and central regions are two completely different concepts! The concentration of Chaos Qi there is more than ten times that of the outer region, and the weakest demons born there are at least at the Heaven Realm Third Level!"
"Even... there are demon kings at the Heaven Realm Sixth Stage who have been entrenched here for years! Those beings could wipe us out with a single breath!"
Heaven Realm Seventh Stage!
That was a terrifying existence at the level of a "Guardian Envoy" who guarded a region in various dynasties!
She knew Su Yu was very strong, as strong as a monster, capable of easily crushing demon kings at the second or third level of the Heaven Realm.
But facing the Heaven Realm Seventh Stage is a power from a completely different dimension, a qualitative difference that cannot be compensated for by quantity or techniques!
"You..." Luo Yuan opened her mouth, wanting to persuade him again, but Su Yu did not give her a chance to speak.
Su Yu interrupted her.
He looked into Luo Yuan's pupils, which were slightly dilated with fear and anxiety, and slowly spoke. His voice was not loud, but it carried an undeniable determination.
Are you teaching me how to do things?
Those four words left Luo Yuan speechless, unable to utter a single word.
Looking into Su Yu's deep, unfathomable, chaotic eyes, she suddenly realized that she and he were not from the same world at all.
Her rationality, her caution, her reverence—these were perhaps utterly meaningless in this man's eyes.
Su Yu withdrew his gaze, no longer looking at her, and simply gave the order.
"Lead the way."
Luo Yuan's lips moved a few times, but in the end, all her attempts to dissuade her turned into a resigned sigh.
She silently turned around and, following the map in her memory, began to walk straight towards the central area.
After an incense stick has burned.
As the two passed through an invisible barrier made of gray mist, the surrounding air suddenly felt heavy.
Luo Yuan felt an immense pressure coming from all directions, making the flow of spiritual energy within her body sluggish and even making it difficult to breathe.
This is the oppressive power of the central region!
Su Yu, however, acted as if nothing had happened, his steps remaining unchanged.
[The concentration of Chaos Qi is indeed much higher; it's a good place for cultivation.]
He calmly assessed the situation in his mind, his gaze already scanning his surroundings, searching for the so-called " Thunder Marsh ".
However, they hadn't even had time to walk a hundred feet.
A figure, like a ghost, appeared Soundless in the path they were destined to take.
The man was tall and exuded a strong smell of water and blood. His face, which resembled a shark's, was covered with hideous scars, and his cold eyes were Dead Land on Su Yu.
It was the Hei Sha that had fled in such a sorry state earlier!
At this moment, his aura was even colder and more violent than before, and his cultivation was showing signs of breaking through to the Heaven Realm Sixth Stage!
The moment Luo Yuan saw him, her heart sank to the bottom.
Wolves in front, tigers behind!
Having just entered the central region, before even encountering the local demon king, they first bumped into this vengeful fiend!
I've been waiting for you.
Hei Sha spoke in a hoarse voice, each word seemingly squeezed out from between his teeth, filled with resentment and glee.
"This is the central region."
"Here... there's no damn two-hour restriction!"
The moment the words fell, a pressure of law several times stronger than before erupted, turning the area within a thousand feet into a viscous black water!
Rumble!
Rumble!
The waves churned and crashed against each other, creating a violent thud that seemed to shatter one's eardrums.
"Kid, no one can save you today!"
