The rocky beach was located on the west side of the middle section of the Calabazar Trail and on the east side of the Black Ridge. It was the confluence of the Nine Streams and Eighteen Streams. The rocky beach had a radius of tens of kilometers and the terrain was extremely complicated. Although entering the rocky beach would not trap you, it was very easy to get lost. You had to climb up huge rocks to find a way out.
Below the rocky beach were streams that came from all over the place, so it was the confluence of the Nine Streams and Eighteen Streams. There was also a small swamp here, and there were only two roads leading to the rocky beach.
Guo Shier and the others stood outside the rocky beach. There were no scouts, no bandits or sentries. It was quiet all around. Aizec sniffed the air and said, "The smell of blood …" He smiled and said, "It should be similar to the Black Ridge. There are dead people here …"
Jadran's face was a bit pale, Essen smiled bitterly, Tokudai was shocked, and Wu Si murmured, "There's a big change … a big change, a big change …"
Guo Shier said, "Who cares if it's a big change or a small change, let's go in! Wu Si, do you know the way? Lead the way! "
Wu Si nodded desperately. He had been in the rocky beach camp for a few months, so of course he was familiar with the roads here.
After a while, the team entered the rocky beach camp. It was not a big camp with more than 20 wooden houses, but they had been burned to pieces. There was a pile of bodies in the middle of the camp. There were more than 20 bodies, and the ground was dark brown. Guo Shier knew that it was dried blood. A large group of mosquitoes and flies were buzzing around.
Guo Shier shook his head and said, "I don't know who did it … these bastards didn't bury the bodies, it's so stinky."
Wu Si suddenly shouted, "Karabusha … that's Karabusha's head!"
Guo Shier asked curiously, "Who is Karabusha?"
Wu Si said, "It's the leader of the rocky beach camp, the big leader."
Yadran was also shocked. "It's Kalabusha? The most tyrannical Karabusha? He's actually dead … "
Wu Si explained, "Karabusha is very famous in this area. He is very powerful and tyrannical. Anyone who provokes him will fight to the death. I didn't expect him to be killed and beheaded." He pointed to the head on the ground.
It was a burly man. One of his legs was kneeling while the other was bent. Both of his hands were holding a broken sword that was stabbed into the ground. His body was upright, but his shoulder was empty. His head was on the ground not far away. Looking at the head again, even though it had been chopped off, the anger and tyrannical aura was still thick, especially the pair of round eyes.
Guo Shi 'er said, "I don't know who did it, but this guy died with everlasting regret."
Yadlan laughed bitterly: "To be able to kill Karabusha, he must be very strong. Karabusha's strength is much stronger than mine." She remembered that when she was in the hands of Aizec, she was also powerless. If not for his carelessness, she definitely wouldn't have been able to stab him. Maybe Aizec's strength was comparable to the person who killed Karabusha.
Guo Shier said, "Regardless of who killed him, let's search this place first." He knew that there must be some powerful character here. Of course, he didn't care. In terms of strength, he believed that there were very few experts that could threaten him. Moreover, he had Aizec, this abnormal humanoid talisman beast, by his side. Other than Aizec, everyone else participated in the search, including Guo Shier, who walked to the pile of ashes to search. He used his soul fluctuations to search. As long as he sent out his soul fluctuations, he would be able to form some kind of information in his soul. It was similar to the ultrasonic waves of a bat, but much more powerful than a bat's.
For the time being, Guo Shier hadn't found anything. This place was different from the Talisman Continent. In the Talisman Continent, the majority of things had traces of talismans. However, this place didn't have the slightest characteristic of talismans. Therefore, before he completely understood this world, he still needed to carefully distinguish the information sent back by his soul fluctuations. This way, the search speed would be much slower.
After walking through two houses that had been burnt to the ground, he didn't find anything. Guo Shier sighed and walked out. Very quickly, the team members came back to report that they hadn't found any valuables.
Guo Shier knew that the valuables here had also been looted. He said, "Alright, arrange for people to cook and set up tents. Wait for the other teams to come back." He walked to the side of the camp and found a relatively flat ground. He casually threw out the Invisible Talisman House. With a light sound, a beautiful two-story building appeared on the empty ground.
Jadran had been following behind Guo Shier. She was most afraid of Aizec. She was afraid that this guy would go crazy. Therefore, she absolutely refused to leave Guo Shier even half a step. She saw Guo Shier wave his hand, and a two-story building appeared in front of her. Moreover, the building was very beautiful. It was different from any building she had seen before.
"I …"
When Guo Shier heard Jadran say the word 'I', he turned around and saw Jadran's small mouth open. Her hand was unconsciously mimicking his waving action. He couldn't help but find it funny. He said, "Jadran, waving your hand like this is useless."
Jadran's face suddenly turned red. Essen, Tokudai, Wu Si, and the others who had noticed the appearance of the building were also dumbfounded. They couldn't figure out how this building had appeared no matter what.
Guo Shier said, "I'll go back to my room to rest. You all go back and rest. Remember, send someone to keep watch."
Aizec walked into the building without saying a word. Guo Shier went to the second floor. Seeing that Aizec had gone in, Jadran immediately turned around and left. The others didn't dare to go in.
On the second floor, Guo Shier lay down. The second floor was his place to rest and cultivate. There were no special decorations, only a thick animal skin carpet, a few big pillows, and bedding. He lay down and fell asleep. This period of time was quite hard. Although his body was strong, a good sleep was very beneficial to his soul and body.
After half a day, Guo Shier woke up. He took out the altar and asked, "A Handsome Old Man, how is the research of the sky blue gold?"
A Handsome Old Man came out and said, "I purified it and tried to use it to carry the runes. Hehe, the effect is not bad. This sky blue gold can carry the power of runes. Take a look at this sky blue gold." He took out a piece of sky blue gold.
This was a small metal plate. It was very thin and very beautiful sky blue. It was flickering with a metallic luster. One could see moving runes on its surface. Guo Shier was surprised, "The fusion is very good … … It's not worse than the metals of the Charm Continent."
A Handsome Old Man said with a smile, "It's more suitable to carry runes than some of the metals of the Charm Continent. I didn't expect it either. In other words, the metals of this world don't conflict with the runes."
Guo Shier leaned on the big pillow and played with the sky blue gold in his hand. He said, "As for how to use it … … Do you have any idea?"
A Handsome Old Man said, "It can be used in many places, including sacrificial rites and altars. It's just that I haven't tested it yet. I need time. Well, if you have the chance, you should collect more metals here."
Guo Shier said, "Last time I collected some local weapons … …" Those weapons were also made of metal, but they were all ordinary metals.
A Handsome Old Man said, "I've tried it. After purifying it, it can also carry runes. It's just that the foundation is too poor. It can only carry ordinary runes. If it's ancient runes … … the metal will immediately collapse."
Guo Shier nodded and said, "Interesting. This is similar to the Charm World."
Even in the Charm World, not all materials could carry ancient runes. There were many kinds of runes that could carry runes. There were fixed runes, which were the simplest. Among them, engraving was the main one. Once engraving was successful, the runes would be fixed in the engraved lines. This kind of rune was the most used.
High-level runes were runes condensed from the soul. They had a strong personal color. This kind of rune could be big or small. It could move freely in the high-level materials. This was the key to giving the materials a soul. If ancient runes were used, the requirements for the materials would be higher. Most of the altars and sacrificial rites were refined in this way.
Guo Shier was very surprised that the sky blue gold could carry high-level runes. This meant that the materials collected here were useful.
Guo Shier didn't know how big this world was, but he knew that this was a small world like the Charm World. There should be a lot of special items. As long as most of these things could carry runes, then he would have a lot of choices. This was because each material had its own characteristics. It was just that he hadn't discovered their characteristics yet.
The more materials there were, the more choices there would be. Guo Shier was very clear about this. At his level, there were a lot of things that needed to be explored and experimented by himself. He was already at the peak of the profession. This was a step that he had to take.
A Handsome Old Man said, "This is a good start. Try to collect as many materials as possible. I guess … your brother will soon discover this secret."
Guo Shier asked, "A Handsome Old Man, is it possible to build something that surpasses the nine-layered altar?" Although he didn't expect to be able to advance beyond the nine-layered altar, he still couldn't help but ask. This altar could be said to be single-handedly built by A Handsome Old Man. He was the biggest beneficiary. When it came to understanding the altar, he wasn't as good as A Handsome Old Man.
A Handsome Old Man shook his head and said, "I don't have a clue. Although they gave you an inheritance, and you gave it to me, I don't know how to proceed. You know … there are too many coincidences. We can't just copy it."
Li Ran and Qi Wuzhen both gave Guo Shier an inheritance. They also hoped that Guo Shier could succeed in building it. If he could advance beyond the nine-layered altar, then his chances of going to the outside world would be much higher. However, after Guo Shier obtained the inheritance and studied it, he found that it was very difficult. He could only pass it to A Handsome Old Man so that he could have some time to think about it. It would be best if he could succeed, but it didn't matter if he couldn't.
Guo Shier wasn't disappointed. He already knew that it wouldn't be easy. He said, "Yes, try to collect as many materials as possible. I'll have to trouble you in the future."
A Handsome Old Man waved his hand and said, "It's fine. I'm going back to the altar. There are still a lot of things waiting for me." He was very busy every day. Guo Shier really admired him. Because this guy was in soul form, he didn't need to rest at all. After consuming a part of his soul, he would quickly replenish his soul orb and then use the fluctuation of the soul scripture to purify it.
Guo Shier thought about it for a moment. Entering the Superimposed Continent and accidentally entering another small world was a test and an opportunity for both Li Ran and Guo Shier. This was the first time he went from the Charm Continent to another small world. It was an excellent opportunity to test the Charm Altar. If he was lucky, it wasn't impossible for him to advance again.
