The Absolute Beginning Forbidden Land seemed to have existed ever since the Hundred Races Continent was formed. It was a forbidden zone for all living beings because there were countless ancient beasts hibernating inside. If one entered, one would wake them up and bring disaster upon oneself.
Furthermore, the strange thing was that the Absolute Beginning Forbidden Land seemed to be an independent space. The outside world was shrouded in mist, but after entering, it was a completely different scene …
It was a land of death.
Feng Hao's expression was extremely solemn after his purple eyes lit up.
There wasn't the slightest bit of life in this land. That was why the rivers had dried up and the old trees had withered. This entire region was like a space from hell. Cold winds blew, emitting a desolate aura that caused people's hearts to involuntarily shiver.
This was definitely not a place one could stay in for long.
Feng Hao rose to his feet and slowly walked back the way he came.
Along the way, he saw an ancient beast that he had killed. It was already dead, its blood staining the dark yellow ground and slowly seeping into it.
"Mm."
Feng Hao's gaze stopped on the ancient beast's corpse and he slowly furrowed his brows.
He realized that the ancient beast was withering as well. Its originally strong muscles were withering, as if it was being roasted over a fire, rapidly shrinking.
This scene caused Fenghao's hair to stand on end. He quickened his pace, heading in the direction he had come from. Along the way, he even saw that the blood of the beasts he had just killed had already flowed out and seeped into the ground. Their originally muscular bodies were now just skin and bones, as if they had been dried up by the wind.
Suddenly, Fenghao had a bad premonition.
Entering the Absolute Beginning Forbidden Land was definitely a mistake, especially when he did not know anything about it.
Thinking about how this place was rumored to be the resting place of emperors and gods, he shuddered.
Even though he was confident that he could become a great emperor, he was undoubtedly still weak right now. Not to mention anything else, just a single saint-level ancient beast would be enough to kill him.
This was not a game, this was a matter of life and death.
According to the legends, these ancient beasts could even tear apart Great Saints. For someone like him who had not even started on the 'dao', a single thought from them could kill him.
"My lord."
Not far away, a shout came, startling Feng Hao's attention.
"Yes."
This voice sounded familiar to Feng Hao. Soon after, he recalled that he had heard this voice in Clearwater City. After a while, he sped up and moved forward.
"My lord."
Seeing that Feng Hao was still safe and sound, Gan Wenlin heaved a sigh of relief.
However, because he had chased after them with injuries, it affected his wounds. His entire face was now pale, and he was sweating profusely. His chest was also red, and he was gasping for breath.
"Chi chi."
With a flick of his finger, Feng Hao sent a few wisps of medicinal energy into his chest. After a while, his originally deathly pale face swiftly regained its rosy color.
"Sir, you're also an advanced apothecary."
Gan Wenlin asked in surprise as he felt the coolness in his body and the wounds that were being repaired at a visible rate.
"Hehe."
Feng Hao nodded and immediately asked, "Why is this place different from the outside world?"
"This … My lord, you don't know about the Absolute Beginning Forbidden Land."
Gan Wenlin looked at him in astonishment, his eyes full of doubt.
It was impossible that the Elysium didn't have any records of the Absolute Beginning Forbidden Land. However, looking at Feng Hao's expression, it didn't seem like he was lying.
"Indeed, I don't know."
Fenghao's lips curled into a wry smile as he shook his head.
If it wasn't for this mission, he wouldn't even know the name of the Absolute Beginning Forbidden Land. He only knew some rumors from Xie Yandong.
It was said that this was an unknown passage that led to an unknown place. There were also rumors that it was the resting place of a Great Emperor. However, no one could determine which was true.
Because no one who entered the depths could come back alive. Even a Great Saint would fall. As for a Great Emperor … Who had the ability to follow a Great Emperor?
Everything was just a guess. However, the Absolute Beginning Forbidden Land was extremely dangerous, and there were countless ancient beasts. This was a fact.
"My lord, you don't know. What the outside world sees is actually not the real Absolute Beginning Forbidden Land. It's just the periphery. This place … is the real Absolute Beginning Forbidden Land."
Gan Wenlin calmed himself down and felt that his injuries had recovered. He immediately heaved a sigh of relief and explained to Feng Hao.
As for Fenghao, he also had a slight understanding of why he would appear here after entering the fog.
So, this was the mystery of the Absolute Beginning Forbidden Land. As long as one came into contact with the mist, they would be transported here, no matter where they were.
However, if he wanted to leave, he must find the passage. Otherwise, he would be trapped here until he died.
"My lord, follow me. We must leave this place as soon as possible."
Gan Wenlin didn't explain too much as he brought Fenghao along and walked forward.
When he passed by the corpses of the ancient beasts again, there were only white bones left. Their flesh and blood had already dried up, and their fur had already turned into ashes that scattered on the desolate ground. It was nothing more than a cup of dust.
"Why is it so desolate here?"
Looking at the endless desolate ground, Feng Hao couldn't help but ask.
He was too curious. There were countless rumors about the Absolute Beginning Forbidden Land, but in summary, it was ancient, eternal, and dangerous.
It had existed since the beginning of the world. Therefore, no one could explain what was going on with the ancient beasts here. This was an eternal mystery that no one could unravel.
Eternity. Perhaps, the Absolute Beginning Forbidden Land would only disappear when this world disappeared. Since the beginning of time, this area had never changed.
"It's been like this for a long, long time …"
Gan Wenlin glanced at the genius from the Heavenly Academy. Seeing that the genius didn't put on any airs and even healed him, Gan Wenlin had a good impression of him.
After all, if it wasn't for Feng Hao and Ge Hong's timely arrival, Clearwater City would no longer exist.
He stopped in his tracks, grabbed a handful of soil and rubbed it in his palm. Looking at the yellow sand on his palm, his eyebrows slightly knitted together. Then, he said to Fenghao, "Sir, you might not believe me, but according to the records left behind by the ancestors of Clearwater City, this place used to be a paradise. However, for some unknown reason, the spiritual energy in this place has been gradually declining … That's why it has become like this today."
"The spiritual energy has weakened."
Feng Hao also frowned. He sensed his own body, but didn't find any signs of the origin energy in his body being stripped away. However, the origin energy here was much weaker than the outside world, but … it was still comparable to the Sky Martial Continent.
