After saying that, Su Lie seems to have passed through an invisible boundary, disappearing in front of Lin Buzheng.
Seeing this, Lin Buzheng hesitates for a moment, then takes a step forward. He suddenly feels as if the sun and moon have turned upside down, and the sky and earth are spinning. By the time he comes back to his senses, he's already in an incomparably bustling market.
"Hiss, what a big market …"
Lin Buzheng is amazed.
Looking from the desert, this market occupies an area of several dozen li, as vast as a small city. It's already frighteningly big, but once you enter it, you'll find that the real area of this market is no less than a hundred times what it looks like from the outside. The contrast between the inside and outside is huge, like two different worlds. It's indeed worthy of being called the Ghost City.
In the Ghost City, magnificent, simple and unadorned buildings rise from the ground.
Carved balustrades and jade walls, flying pavilions and flowing elixirs, arranged in picturesque disorder, with a completely different style, extending all the way to the horizon.
All kinds of creatures with different clothing are shuttling back and forth. Some are opening shops in the ancient buildings, some are setting up stalls along the streets, but there are even more who are walking through the streets, stopping and walking, choosing treasures. The flow of people is like weaving, orderly.
"Little Grey, look, there are actually three moons in the sky!"
"Hiss, the moons have disappeared, that's … a dilapidated ancient battlefield, it's going to collide with the Ghost City! … Oh, the ancient battlefield has disappeared again, how strange! "
In the Ghost City, Lin Buzheng's gaze is first attracted by the Ghost City's sky.
The Ghost City's sky is not a tranquil night sky, nor is it a brilliant day, but it's constantly changing irregularly.
When Lin Buzheng just entered, three flawless full moons appear in the sky above the Ghost City, as big as a disc, hanging in the night sky, sprinkling down bright moonlight, almost coinciding with some towering ancient buildings in the Ghost City.
But in the next moment, the night sky darkens, and the three full moons disappear.
In their place, a magnificent atmosphere and murderous aura of the ancient battlefield appears on the other side of the sky.
This ancient battlefield was really too big. Looking from the Ghost City below, it was vast and boundless, like a giant continent. It seemed to be moving slowly, but in fact, it was moving at a terrifying speed. In the blink of an eye, a large part of the sky above the Ghost City was shrouded.
In the Ancient Battlefield, the mountains and rivers collapsed, the ground collapsed, and even the sun, moon, and stars that filled the sky were shattered into pieces and floated in the surroundings of the continent. From this, it could be seen how grand and horrifying the battle that had occurred here in the past was.
After the time it took to brew a cup of tea, the giant continent gradually drifted closer, and Lin Buzheng could clearly see the scene above.
The towering skeleton stood tall like a small mountain. Its terrifying divine power separated time and space and heaven and earth. Even after countless years, it had not dissipated. All kinds of weapons of the Great Path, either complete or shattered, were inserted into the ground, emitting a heart-palpitating aura of the Great Path. At the very least, these were weapons refined by the Heavenly Sovereigns or even supreme Saints.
The scene on the ancient battlefield was magnified in Lin Buzheng's eyes at a shocking speed.
Obviously, this giant continent is heading towards the Ghost City head-on.
It seemed that it wouldn't be long before the Ghost City would collide with the ancient battlefield. At that time, it might cause the sky to fall and the earth to crack. The consequences would be unpredictable and terrible!
Buzz!
However, in the next moment, the ancient battlefield that was crashing towards the Ghost City suddenly disappeared without a trace. It was as if everything that Lin Buzheng saw just now was just an illusion that appeared in his mind.
In the end, the sky of the Ghost City was lit up by countless stars. Some were real stars that gathered into bright galaxies and nebulas that flowed in the universe. Some were supreme magic treasures that emitted an aura that could suppress the entire world. They brushed past the Ghost City.
There was also an astonishingly huge, mysterious creature that glowed with light. It stopped outside the ghost market and curiously sized up the bustling market. Soon after, as if it had been frightened, it disappeared into the depths of the void in a flash.
Lin Buzheng's cultivation was only at the Spirit Path Realm. In the past, he had always been cultivating in the remote Evergreen County. He had never seen such a strange and unpredictable scene before. He immediately shouted and was very excited.
"Shut up, brat. You've made this emperor lose all my face!"
Xiao Hui lay on Lin Buzheng's shoulder with a cold and arrogant face. Since the Chongsheng Sect, it had hated Lin Buzheng all the way until now. Originally, it didn't want to pay attention to him. Unexpectedly, after Lin Buzheng entered the Ghost City, he made a big fuss and frequently attracted the attention of the surrounding creatures. Now, Xiao Hui finally couldn't keep its face and opened its mouth to scold.
Lin Buzheng calmed down. He didn't notice Xiao Hui's dissatisfaction at all. He said thoughtfully, "Xiao Hui, where is the Ghost City? Is it drifting in the river of time and space?"
As Lin Buzheng saw, the scene in the sky of the Ghost City was unpredictable and incomparably strange.
In addition, Su Lie once said that in the Ghost City, there might be creatures from the past and the future. With all these reasons, Lin Buzheng couldn't help but speculate that the Ghost City was very likely to drift in the river of time that ran through the past, present, and future.
"Meow, what a stupid question!"
"If this Emperor could figure it out, I would've opened my own Ghost City long ago!"
Xiao Hui answered briefly. It practiced its claws on Lin Buzheng's shoulder, looking like it was still angry.
But soon after, under Lin Buzheng's coaxing and flattery, Xiao Hui's anger quickly turned into joy, and it started to explain in detail to Lin Buzheng.
It turned out that the Ghost City's history in the world of martial arts was incomparably ancient. As early as the Age of Ancient Mythology, even before the beginning of human civilization, it had already existed.
The Ghost City was mysterious and unfathomable, forming a world of its own.
Even the powerful Gods and Emperors couldn't lock onto the Ghost City's coordinates in the endless space and time. They could only enter through the Ghost City's entrance.
What Su Lie said is true. From ancient times until now, creatures from all over the heavens and the ten thousand worlds, any era could appear in the Ghost City.
There was once someone who entered the Ghost City and saw a Divine King who had fallen thousands of years ago.
There were also people who inadvertently met their descendants.
And there were even creatures who met themselves from different space-time …
In short, the Ghost City's space-time was different from the outside world. It was very jumpy and chaotic. Therefore, many martial artists guessed that the Ghost City didn't exist normally, but drifted in the long river of time.
The Ghost City was enveloped by an invisible but incomparably powerful law. Any creature that dared to make a move in the Ghost City would be mercilessly suppressed and killed by the law.
The Great Emperors and Divine Lords were omnipotent and supreme. Naturally, they could contend against the Ghost City's law. But if they dared to make a move in the Ghost City, they would be immediately expelled by the law and would never be able to enter again.
Moreover, although the Ghost City couldn't do anything to the Great Emperors and Divine Kings, it could attack their descendants.
It was said that in ancient times, several Great Emperors and Divine Kings had coveted the Ghost City's treasures, or wanted to find out the Ghost City's origin. They had fought in the Ghost City, causing the Ghost City to be silent for thousands of years, never to appear again.
But later on, on the night that these Great Emperors and Divine Kings fell, the long-silent Ghost City shockingly appeared in the former's family territory.
Ghost fires flickered, people came and went, the hubbub of voices, it was very lively.
