In a blood-red world, the sky and earth were blood red. In the depths of the blood-red river that was as vast as the sea, a figure was sitting cross-legged, and his surroundings were enveloped by blood.
As though it had a life of its own, the boundless blood sea surged madly into the figure's body.
"Boom …!"
In the blink of an eye, the sea of blood was split into two. The figure opened his eyes abruptly, and a beam of blood red light pierced through the sea of blood, piercing through the sky.
"Finally, I can communicate with the source of the Blood World."
"I've fulfilled your wish. It's time to fulfill your promise." Suddenly, a heavenly voice boomed through the Blood World.
The black robed figure was the Grandmaster of Blood Kill Sect's 12th Level. A year ago, he had made a deal with this mysterious man. Now that this mysterious man had helped him communicate with the Blood World and comprehend the source, he could be considered to have fulfilled his wish.
What's the matter? Come out and speak to me. "The Grandmaster's voice was androgynous, and one could not tell if it was a man or a woman.
"Are you trying to go back on your words?" The voice boomed out once more.
"So what if I'm not? What can you do to me? You're still too young." The Grandmaster laughed coldly. Turning into a streak of red light, he broke through the barrier of the Blood World and left the place.
The void was silent. The mysterious man did not seem to be angered by this. Evidently, this was within his expectations.
"Hmph …" A cold snort rang through the Blood World before disappearing completely.
...
Dongling Continent, Blood Kill Sect's 12th Level …
The Grandmaster gripped his fists tightly as the energy within his body surged. At the same time, being able to communicate with the source of the Blood World was a joyous occasion. Every single generation of Grandmaster had wanted to communicate with the Blood World, but none of them had succeeded.
But, he was curious as to who this mysterious man was.
His powers were unfathomable, but he could not reveal his true form.
This was the result of many experiments. Therefore, the Grandmaster made use of this situation to gain the upper hand. As for the other party's request, there was no way he would help the other party fulfill it.
...
After staying in Xuanjian Sect for a few days, Lin Fan left the place. Towards Xuan Yunxian, Lin Fan had already accepted her. At times, he felt that this feeling was pretty good. He just had to get used to it.
There were still a few places left in the 'Seven Saints Treasure Map' and Lin Fan was prepared to search for them.
With Lin Fan's current strength, the speed at which he traversed the void was naturally very fast. He did not need to spend too much time at all.
"Land of Annihilation."
This was one of the remaining locations in the 'Seven Saints Treasure Map'.
The Annihilation Grounds was the most dangerous place in the entire Dongling Continent. There was no sign of life in this place. It was a barren land that stretched as far as the eye could see. Even the skies were grey and gloomy, giving off an oppressive feeling.
Even sects wouldn't bring their disciples here to train. After all, it was a desolate place, so what treasures could there be? Other than some ferocious beasts, there was nothing else.
Looking at the desolate land before him, Lin Fan also felt a little helpless.
This Seven Saint Old Dog was really good at hiding things, finding all sorts of weird places to hide things. Who knew where he would build the secret chamber this time around?
But based on the Seven Saint Old Dog's character, he must have hidden it at the most dangerous place.
"Chick, take a good sniff and see where that Seven Saint Old Dog's secret chamber is." Lin Fan released Chick from his storage.
Landing on the ground, Chick sniffed left and right. Then, he plucked out his claws and sprinted off into the distance.
"Even though Chick doesn't look all that great, he's pretty useful." Looking at that figure that had already disappeared into the distance, Lin Fan could not help but lament. Without thinking too much about it, he took a single step and followed behind her.
"Just how was this Annihilation Grounds formed?" Along the way, Lin Fan had been pondering over this serious question. But when he looked to the side, he was stunned.
It was as though some sort of force had shaved off the peak of the mountain range, flattening it into flat ground.
'ROAR …!'
Suddenly, a beast burst out of the ground. Opening its gigantic mouth, it pounced at Lin Fan.
Lin Fan wasn't bothered by it at all. Given his current strength, he could just barge through it and crush it.
Not long after, Chick came to a stop at a certain place in the depths of the Annihilation Grounds.
Along the way, Lin Fan came across countless beasts. To most people, these beasts would be able to crush everything in their path. But to Lin Fan, they were nothing more than ants.
"Bloody hell, this is spectacular!"
Looking at the scene before him, Lin Fan was equally astounded by it.
The skies were pitch black. Lei Ting's figure flashed as a bolt of lightning tore through the skies. It was as though he was in the depths of Hell, sending chills down one's spine.
This was a natural environment formed by the Annihilation Grounds. It had existed for a long time without ever dissipating.
'Cuckoo …!' Chick looked at Lin Fan and scratched the ground with his chicken claws. It was as though he was telling Lin Fan that it was right beneath him.
Looking at this, Lin Fan was exasperated. That Seven Saint Old Dog was still using the same old tricks. He loved to have his secret chamber underground.
Lin Fan pressed his palm on the ground. True Energy gushed out from it. With a gentle push, the ground quaked violently. The ground sunk in, swallowing both Lin Fan and Chick within.
...
Lin Fan looked at his surroundings. Indeed, it was as Chick had said. The Seven Saint Secret Chamber was right here. There was a stone door up ahead that was shut tightly. Behind that stone door should be the secret chamber.
Beside the stone door, there were piles of white bones. Evidently, someone had been here before. But for some unknown reason, they had died here. But looking at the white bones, it seemed as though they had been gnawed on by something. They must have been killed by some mysterious beast.
BAM!
To Lin Fan, this stone door was nothing. With a single kick, he sent it flying.
But the moment Lin Fan entered the secret chamber, he frowned.
The layout of the secret chamber was exactly the same as all the other secret chambers. But there was nothing inside.
The jade-like bones of Seven Saint Old Dog were gone. The brocade box on the stone table was gone as well.
Suddenly, Lin Fan released the Seven Saint black dog from his storage.
"Seems like your luck is pretty good. Seems like the fated person you mentioned has already been here." Lin Fan looked at the black dog and chuckled.
The black dog shook his head. That ferocious look in his eyes was no longer there. He seemed to be reminiscing about something.
"Eh …?" Suddenly, Lin Fan sensed that there was a mysterious energy that was connected to the old black dog from the unknowns.
"You deserve to die a thousand times over."
To Lin Fan's astonishment, the old black dog had actually opened its mouth to speak!
"Holy sh * t! He's turned into a spirit …!" Lin Fan gasped. He had not expected things to turn out this way.
The moment Chick heard the black dog's words, he leaped up immediately. With a loud bark, he sent a paw flying towards the black dog.
Chick then looked at the black dog with a domineering look, as though he was saying, "Old dog, watch your tone."
The black dog's body slammed against the wall. He then stood up with a ferocious look in his eyes, "Pitiful fella. Dongling Continent's doomsday has arrived. You won't be jumping around for much longer."
"Old dog, even though I don't know what you're talking about, it sounds like you're living a pretty high life right now. I wonder who that fated person is? How about letting me meet him?" Lin Fan chuckled.
"You won't have the chance to meet him, because you're not too far from death. I'll give you these two streams of consciousness then. As for the other secret chambers, they're useless to you. After all, I've already retrieved them in the past year. My might isn't something you can imagine. HAHAHA …!"
In an instant, as soon as the old black dog finished speaking, its body began to swell up.
"Huehue. Self destruction of consciousness. How boring." Lin Fan looked at the black dog. With a single finger, he sliced open the void and tossed the black dog into the endless void.
After all, it had nothing to do with him anymore.
...
"No matter what, this Seven Saint Old Dog is an Ancient Being. But what the hell is this Ancient Being? There's no such thing as an Ancient Being in Xuanhuang World. Clearly, it's not referring to this world." Lin Fan went silent. He could not figure this out. But as he thought about the past, he thought of a possibility.
With their cultivation states restricted, the people of Dongling Continent could not enter a higher cultivation state.
There was a barrier between the Heavens and Earth. That barrier should be the reason.
"Bloody hell, I'm not going to think about it anymore. I'll just take it one step at a time …" The moment he thought of this complicated problem, Lin Fan's head hurt. It was better to live a carefree life.
PS: While writing about the self-destruction of the black dog, I suddenly thought of a new novel, 'The Vengeful Journey of the Old Black Dog in the Other World'. The black dog trained hard and finally killed Lin Fan.
