Time passed in the blink of an eye.
One and a half months felt like yesterday to Lin Tian and the others. It was so fast that they didn't feel anything at all.
During this time, Wu Sanhan had already converted his spiritual energy. As for Heavenly Phoenix Princess and Xiao Hei, they had only recovered to the pinnacle of Nirvana Realm.
After all, it wasn't that easy to accumulate spiritual energy. It required a process.
Especially towards the end, the amount of Spiritual Qi that was required was terrifying.
Moreover, there were four people cultivating together in this world. No matter how rich the spiritual energy here was, it couldn't withstand their plundering.
Moreover, the spiritual energy here wasn't rich at all.
One and a half months was still too short.
It was impossible to truly recover to the peak without a year and a half.
However, the Ancient City of the Desert had already appeared three days ago. Its aura had spread across the entire desert. Xiao Hei and the others couldn't wait any longer.
Therefore, they didn't plan to convert step by step according to the rules. Instead, they directly gave up on their previous accumulation.
This way, although their strength would drop temporarily, they wouldn't have any scruples when fighting.
It was much better than before.
After all, although the spiritual energy in their bodies hadn't recovered, their cultivation realm was still there. With the support of various secret skills, as long as the person who came was not a Quasi-emperor, they wouldn't have a problem protecting themselves.
As for Lin Tian, it was the most strange thing.
Whether it was Wu Sanhan or Heavenly Phoenix Princess, they saw Lin Tian cultivating. What surprised them the most was that Lin Tian's cultivation was only at the Phenomenon Realm.
The Phenomenon Realm!
Normally, even Wu Sanhan could be easily killed at such a cultivation realm.
However, who would have thought that Lin Tian, who hadn't reached this cultivation realm before, could easily kill a Quasi-emperor?
Moreover, he brought them along and forcibly crossed the Immortal Road before it opened.
His methods could be said to be miraculous.
This made Heavenly Phoenix Princess and Wu Sanhan, who knew the truth, a little confused. They couldn't believe their eyes.
After all, when they were in the Nine States in the Lower Realm, they all thought that Lin Tian was at the Sage Realm or even stronger.
But who would have thought that he was only at the Phenomenon Realm?
Heavenly Phoenix Princess and Wu Sanhan looked at Lin Tian strangely. Their faces twitched as they wanted to say something.
Xiao Hei was already used to this. He laughed and said, "How can my Young Master be judged by common sense?"
Heavenly Phoenix Princess and Wu Sanhan turned silent, unable to refute. Lin Tian's existence was indeed beyond common sense.
Even Princess Heavenly Phoenix, who prided herself on being knowledgeable, couldn't understand his existence.
"Let's go. Stop thinking about it. If we don't go now, the good things in the ancient city will probably be taken away by others."
Lin Tian smiled helplessly and shook his head.
At his level, cultivation was no longer that important. What was important was the control of the Great Path.
The Great Dao was him.
He was also the Great Dao.
Apart from fighting against those of the same level, he rarely had the chance to use his full strength. With the help of the Great Path, he could defeat everything.
Therefore, to him, spiritual energy could be said to be important, but it could also be said to be unimportant.
Unfortunately, Heavenly Phoenix Princess and the others hadn't reached that level yet. They naturally didn't know this.
But at this time, Lin Tian's words attracted their attention. They no longer paid attention to Lin Tian.
"In that case, what are we waiting for? Young Master, let's go." Xiao Hei rubbed his fists and said impatiently.
Lin Tian nodded and pointed to the west. "The ancient city is about five thousand miles from here."
"Five thousand miles?"
Xiao Hei murmured. Then, he turned into a great roc and shouted at Lin Tian and the others, "Young Master, come up. I'll take you there."
Lin Tian heard this and naturally didn't refuse.
Five thousand miles wasn't far. If Xiao Hei brought them there, it would only take half an incense stick's worth of time.
It was also possible to travel through the void, but it was too troublesome for the current situation.
The void of the Immortal Realm was much more chaotic than that of the Nine Prefectures. There were turbulent void currents everywhere, and it was full of dangers. Even Saints would not dare to travel recklessly. Normally, they would rely on treasured ships that were specially carved with formations to resist the turbulence.
Therefore, for Lin Tian and the others, flying was much more convenient than traveling through the void.
With Xiao Hei's speed, this short distance wasn't much slower than traveling through the void.
The great black roc soared into the sky, kicking up a cloud of yellow sand. In the blink of an eye, it turned into a streak of light and rushed out, leaving a trailing shadow in the sky.
Along the way, many people were alarmed by Xiao Hei and looked up. Unfortunately, by the time they looked back, Xiao Hei was already far away.
However, no one in the desert was surprised by Xiao Hei's appearance. After all, the opening of the Ancient Desert City had attracted the attention of the entire Grand Desolate Heaven.
Many forces had activated their space transportation formations and crossed over.
In these few days, there were many experts in the desert. It wasn't strange for a few to appear.
"Sigh, I really want to go and take a look. It's said that the Ancient Desert City even has immortal medicine. If I can get it, I'll be able to reach the Emperor Realm."
A Nirvana Realm cultivator looked in the direction Xiao Hei had left and shook his head. His heart was filled with yearning.
Unfortunately, the more beautiful a place was, the more dangerous it was. The Ancient Desert City was the same.
It opened once every million years.
Naturally, there were many rare treasures.
However, who could predict the dangers left behind after a million years?
In that place, even a tree could become a spirit. After a million years, who knew if there were any terrifying existences inside.
After all, it wasn't a land of death.
Moreover, a land of death couldn't nurture so many rare treasures.
Therefore, if one entered without any strength, it was no different from early death. Although there were no hard and fast rules, not many below the Sage Realm dared to barge in, unless they were led by an expert.
…
In the west of the desert, there was a huge city. In the vast desert that stretched as far as the eye could see, it was faintly discernible, like a mirage.
Miasma spread out in the surroundings, adding a sense of mystery to this large city.
About fifty kilometers outside the city, countless people had gathered.
Some people sat in chariots pulled by nine dragons. Of course, they were great flood dragons with a little bit of the Dragon Clan's bloodline. They weren't even flood dragons.
There were also people riding on single-horned heavenly horses. The horses had wings and stood in the air, holding long spears in their hands. They looked like war gods.
There were also people who had dozens of beautiful women carrying palanquins. They burned incense and served wine.
These people were followed by a large group of people.
Large flags fluttered in the wind, looking mighty and extraordinary.
Obviously, without exception, these people were all from the Great Desolate Heaven. They were the representatives of the various major forces.
As for the rogue cultivators, they were much more miserable. They didn't have a neat group, and they didn't look as mighty as they did. Their strength was uneven, and they mingled on the other side.
