An individual has twenty jin of Desolate Power.
It may not seem like much, but calling it little would definitely be an understatent.
Moreover, the powerhouses of each faction cannot be certain that the Sect will definitely use Desolate Power to save them.
"Crack, crack, crack, crack, crack!"
Just as everyone was silent, contemplating the pros and cons.
Suddenly, a crisp sound reached everyone’s ears.
"Ah! My... my body..."
A scream erupted. A Sacred Land Elder’s face was filled with panic, as a layer of frost condensed on his body.
In the blink of an eye, it covered half of his body.
Everyone who saw this imdiately changed their expressions and retreated, not daring to co close, as if afraid of being implicated.
"Bang!"
In just a few breaths, the person turned into an ice sculpture, frozen on the spot, and fell backward, shattering into pieces.
This manner of death could only be described as tragic beyond belief.
"Alas..."
Mo Wangchen sighed, a look of heartache appearing on his face.
It wasn’t because of the person’s death, but because with their death, he lost the chance to earn twenty jin of Desolate Power.
"I am willing to make a heartfelt oath. If I receive the Pill, I will imdiately leave this Cold Martial Land, and afterward, I will hand over twenty jin of Desolate Power to you!"
"Count in, I swear..."
" too..."
No one dared to hesitate further, fearing that the next mont they could not hold on, and the Curse Power would erode their bodies.
"Very well, I will give you the Pills!"
Mo Wangchen was overjoyed in his heart; he had plenty of Divine Fire Pills. Giving so to them was no big deal and was practically a free gain of several hundred jin of Desolate Power, why not do it?
Making a heartfelt oath was no trivial matter, especially for those who have stepped into the Immortal Realm. If they dared to break their oath, they would undoubtedly develop inner demons, resulting in repercussions. Mo Wangchen certainly wasn’t afraid of them turning back.
"You may all go now. As for the Desolate Power, once I exit as well, I will co to each of you to collect it."
After distributing the Pills, one per person, Mo Wangchen waved his hand, signaling them to leave.
Looking at the Pill in their hands, everyone dared not hesitate and swallowed it in one gulp. In an instant, they felt a warm current rushing through their bodies, nourishing them, completely isolating the invading Curse Power, preventing it from penetrating them.
This realization allowed them to breathe a sigh of relief, but they secretly cursed in their hearts, hoping that Mo Wangchen would perish in this Cold Martial Land, so they wouldn’t have to pay the Desolate Power.
As ti passed, a night went by in the blink of an eye.
At dawn, Mo Wangchen and the others awoke from their ditative states.
The various powerhouses who had obtained the Pills began to leave. Before they left, Mo Wangchen reminded them that the effect of the Pill would last no more than twelve hours.
Since last night, much ti had passed, and if they didn’t leave quickly, they would have to find ways to resist the Curse Power on their own.
Hearing this, none of the powerhouses dared to linger, each desperately fleeing.
Due to the peculiarities of Cold Martial Land, they didn’t dare leave by Heaven Flying, fearing they might disturb certain entities here, and in this Restricted Zone, there are many areas with Forbidden restrictions, preventing flight, so they could only proceed on foot.
"Let’s go as well."
Mo Wangchen and the others continued their journey. Fortunately, along the way, they did not encounter any more dangers, and this region, passed down from Ancient tis, had nurous Heaven and Earth Spiritual Grass growing within, all of remarkable value.
By noon, they had harvested many Spirit Grass Divine dicine along the way, gaining plenty.
"How far have we traveled?" Mo Wangchen asked.
Fang Yuan’s voice was somber, "We’ve already traveled about five hundred li, beyond the distance I previously journeyed. I can no longer guarantee what crises may appear ahead."
"Five hundred li already, how large is this Life Forbidden Zone exactly, could it be endless?" Mo Wangchen was slightly surprised.
"Every Life Forbidden Zone is extrely mysterious. From ancient tis to the present, it’s unheard of for anyone to fully explore them. I read in ancient texts that Ancient Sages speculated this Cold Martial Land, from the outside, would require at least ten thousand li to reach the very center." Luoyue Saint Master said.
"Ten thousand li?"
Not only Mo Wangchen, but others also expressed surprise on their faces.
They had been traversing here for two days, and had only covered five hundred li. If it truly required ten thousand li to reach the center, the ti needed would surely be extensive.
"So, at this pace, it will take us at least a month to reach the center..."
Mo Wangchen roughly calculated in his mind, arriving at this conclusion.
"In that case, our Divine Fire Pills should just suffice."
Their group, totaling thirteen people, consus one Pill per person each day, totaling thirteen Divine Fire Pills a day.
If they could accelerate their pace, approximately a month would be needed to reach the center, and upon arrival, they would have consud nearly four hundred Pills.
On this journey, Mo Wangchen and the others had over a thousand Pills, enough for a round trip.
"Though that may be so, we still cannot be sure of the extent to which the Divine Fire Pills can resist the Curse Power, and countless dangers surely lie ahead, so it’s best to proceed with caution." Fang Yuan said.
Everyone nodded, no one dared to be careless in the slightest.
What excited them was that as they went, they harvested a large amount of Spirit Grass Divine dicine, all extrely rare and precious herbs in the outside market.
There were also so Spirit Grass that appeared harmless, but none dared guarantee what they were, thus they also dared not pick them, forced to leave them behind and continue forward.
Finally, on the tenth day, they discovered an ancient ruin.
It appeared to be the site of so Sect’s ruin, which incredibly excited everyone.
A Sect ruin within a Life Forbidden Zone, must have once been a top force from ancient tis, who knows, they might find so useful ancient artifacts here, maybe even a Human Clan Ancestor Artifact.
"War God Palace!"
Moving cautiously, they eventually reached the front of the ruins, where a stone stele stood.
"How could it be, this is actually War God Palace’s ruin?!" Fang Yuan and Luoyue Saint Master were shocked, their faces showing astonishnt.
Mo Wangchen and the others were puzzled; Elder Wei Yuan questioned, "Throughout ancient history, I’ve never heard of any so-called ’War God Palace’ existing, why are the two Saint Masters so surprised?"
"It’s not surprising that you haven’t heard of the War God Palace, because..."
Fang Yuan’s eyes shone with supre brightness, and after taking a deep breath to suppress his inner shock, he finally said, "This is a force from the previous Era!"
PS: Third update!
