After Pang Li absorbed some flesh and blood essence, the rampaging power in his body calmed down once more.
His body, which had already turned into a ball of black mist, slowly retracted, and his entire person returned to his original appearance.
However, even he did not notice that the shadow he had landed on the ground was a monster with countless tentacles and arms.
With the help of that technique and the blood essence he had absorbed, his human side temporarily gained the upper hand. However, there was still an obsession in his heart to kill Zhang Yu.
This was also intentionally pushed by the two Daoists he had devoured. Initially, he had chosen to get close to Chaos out of hatred for Zhang Yu.
This was his only obsession. Even if he fell into unconsciousness in the end, he would still instinctively find trouble with Zhang Yu.
He stayed where he was for a moment before riding a ball of black mist and flying toward the east of Mount An.
Logically speaking, he did not know where Zhang Yu had gone, but as the thought of searching for the latter arose in his heart, there was a voice in the unseen world guiding him. He also followed that voice in a daze.
At this moment, the white boat had already passed Mount An and was flying toward the depths of the continent.
In the main cabin, Zhang Yu was looking at the scroll on the wall.
In the past few days, there had been no changes on the scroll.
He reached out and touched it. This thing was actually quite ancient and contained an indescribable power. Logically speaking, he should be able to find the existence of Origin Energy on it, but he did not feel the slightest heat.
He thought that this was very likely because the scroll was not complete. After all, it was peeled off from the wall. Perhaps it was not the first time he had encountered such a method, and it did not carry a certain amount of faith like the statues and antiques.
After looking at it for a while, he returned to his seat and took out a stone with a faint blue luster from his sleeve. The surface of this thing was very smooth and looked like it had been rubbed often.
In EsGod's memories, there was only the place where the giant slept. He had never seen the style of the underground cave before. Wanting to find such a place in the vast continent was no different from looking for a needle in a haystack.
However, it wasn't as if there weren't any clues.
He saw that the cave rocks around the sleeping giant had a slightly bluish luster. This thing was very unique. He didn't know if it was the sleeping giant's influence, or if it was originally like this.
However, this was undoubtedly an important clue, so he tried to investigate it from here.
He spent more than ten days going through all the past documents in the school, but he found nothing. Later, he went to the government office to retrieve the records of the tribes that had submitted to him over the years to see if he could find anything here.
After Yu Mingyang heard about this, he asked about the appearance of the rock. He recalled that as early as two years ago, he seemed to have seen something similar in a tribe that came to seek refuge from the An Mountain.
After Zhang Yu found out about this, he asked the native about it. It was said that this rock was used by the tribe's priests to communicate with EsGod.
It was just that this tribe had followed the instructions of the prophecy in the tribe, and after a long migration, they had arrived at the Eastern Court. Even they themselves could not tell where the tribe originally came from. The priest had died on the way, so no one knew where this thing came from.
Fortunately, this was not much of a hindrance to Zhang Yu. He carefully looked through the memories of everyone in the tribe. Although there were many places that were disjointed and unclear, when everyone's memories were pieced together, he found a place that he could roughly find.
The white boat flew for five days straight. In front of him was still an endless dense forest and thick fog.
However, at this moment, they were already extremely deep into the belly of the continent.
Zhang Yu believed that in the past, very few cultivators had gone so far. The reason why he didn't say that there had never been one was because he wasn't sure if his teacher had gone deeper before.
At this moment, a sharp cone-shaped mountain peak appeared in his eyes. It looked like a fire vent. He was shocked because in the memories of the tribesmen, this was the place they had passed by.
Not far away, it should be the tribe's original residence.
Sure enough, after the flying boat went out for another half an hour, he accurately found an abandoned settlement based on the memories of those tribesmen.
The appearance of the huge white boat in the sky startled some of the small spiritual creatures and wild beasts that lived here, causing them to flee from this place.
Zhang Yu came out of the white boat and floated down to the ground. He glanced around. Although this place had been abandoned for a long time, he could see that this was the place where the tribe used to live.
No one knew where the stone came from after the death of the shaman, but in the memories of the tribesmen, this thing was a consumable item. The shaman often used this item, so no matter if it was an exchange or an acquisition, there must be a reason why it came from.
He walked to the place where the priest used to live. Light flickered in his eyes. Unfortunately, the turbid tide here was thicker, and it was difficult to recreate the scenery of the past.
He thought for a moment, then left the abandoned settlement and walked to a low hill in the north.
That was one of the sacred places of the tribe. It was the place where generations of priests were buried and spiritually awakened. When the tribe decided to migrate, the priest had gone there alone.
In a flash, he came to the bare low hill.
He stood on the original altar and released his Heart's Light. Soon, he sensed many things.
In the depths of the ground, there were more than ten holes. In each hole, there was a dried corpse. Judging from the appearance of the corpse, it should be the former priest of the tribe.
In addition, there were many funerary objects and human animals in the holes. There were also many skeletons of living creatures. However, he looked down and found that there was no dark blue stone among these funerary objects.
At this point, the clues seemed to have been cut off.
However, it wasn't as if he was out of ideas. With a flick of his sleeve, a ball of light flashed, and a small thing about half the height of a man, shaped like a rat-rabbit, appeared in front of him. Its entire body seemed to be condensed from fine white mist.
After it came out, it looked at him eagerly.
This was an old spirit that he named "Bao Jun". It was best at finding ancient objects and hidden treasures. This time, in order to make it easier to find ancient objects, he also brought it with him.
He took out the blue stone and placed it in front of it.
Bao Jun took it, held it in its hand, and took a small bite. Then, it swallowed it in two or three bites.
Zhang Yu looked at its actions but did not stop it.
It was just a stone. In EsGod's memory, there were many such things in the cave. If he could find that place, it was not a big deal to give up this one.
After Bao Jun swallowed the stone, its two short ears shook. It lay on the ground, as if it was feeling something. After a while, it jumped in a direction.
When Zhang Yu saw this, he also stepped forward and followed. About half a summer later, the thick fog in front of him suddenly dispersed and he arrived in front of a tall greyish-white hill.
As soon as he arrived, he felt a deep sense of oppression. Bao Jun's body trembled non-stop.
He looked over and saw that the hill was surrounded by pits. Every pit had a huge skeleton of a living being buried in it.
At the same time, he felt a surge of heat surging toward him.
His eyes could not help but move slightly.
The skeletons of certain sentient beings also contained Origin Energy. When he first entered Tai Yang Academy, he had absorbed Origin Energy from the skeletons of certain sentient beings.
However, these things were actually very rare. Apart from seeing some in the sacrificial pit at the bottom of the Goddess Peak, he had not encountered anything similar. He did not expect to see them here again, and there seemed to be quite a number of them.
He observed for a while. There were all kinds of stone signs around these pits, as well as marks painted with peeled off colored materials. However, they were all different in style.
He deduced that these pits probably came from different tribes, and they were also there for the purpose of offering sacrifices. The object of their worship should be this hill, or something under the hill.
When he sensed there, he was blocked by a layer of energy and could not go any further. However, the more it was like this, the more it meant that the thing below was not simple.
He nodded at Bao Jun, who was waiting at the side. The latter jumped toward the hill. When he reached the edge of the hill, he drilled into the ground and disappeared in an instant.
Zhang Yu's figure disappeared, and he also sank into the ground. After a few breaths, his eyes opened, and as expected, he came to a spacious cave.
He looked around and followed Bao Jun in. Some of the surrounding scenes gradually overlapped with EsGod's memories, but at this time, he felt that something was wrong.
Not long after, he came to the deepest part of the cave, but his eyes narrowed slightly.
The place under his feet was exactly the place he saw in EsGod's memories. However, it was empty in front of him. The giant that was supposed to be sleeping here was nowhere to be seen.
Where did this giant go? Was it moved away by someone, or did it wake up from its sleep and leave on its own?
He thought for a while and suddenly thought of something. A light flashed outside his body, and he returned to the surface in the blink of an eye. He called for the white boat and floated to the main cabin.
At this moment, he looked at the painting again. As expected, there were changes on it again.
The daoist priest was still standing there, but there was a huge black shadow with countless tentacle-like arms under him. This shadow connected him to the giant.
He just thought that it was not that those giants were not here, but that their level might be higher. It was also very likely that they were in a realm similar to a God Kingdom, so they could not be directly contacted by outsiders. However, since EsGod could see them, there must be a way to connect them.
In fact, the things he saw outside when he came over had already told him the answer. They needed a sacrifice here.
And judging from the scroll, the offering was something similar to a Chaos monster.
This originally existed, but whether it was the Chaos Monster or Daoist Ji, they had been eliminated by him. Where could he find something like this now?
