After leaving the Pingyue Sect, Ye Tianfan retraced his steps and went back to the so-called Sand City he had visited before.
Just like before, it didn't take Ye Tianfan long to reach the place where he had originally left the orphans of Sand City, but he found nothing there, only so things that had been weathered away by ti!
Several of the things he saw there looked familiar. Ye Tianfan quickly picked up the familiar object and examined it carefully. Previously, Ye Tianfan had knocked it into the Xuanhuang Tower, and it belonged to a mother and her child!
However, Ye Tianfan found that the object crumbled into powder with just a slight amount of pressure, clearly indicating that it had been weathered by ti, although its shape had remained intact until now. This discovery surprised Ye Tianfan, for only a single night had passed according to his perception. How could it have weathered so quickly!
Moreover, from the surrounding environnt, it was evident that centuries or even thousands of years had passed!
This led Ye Tianfan to speculate, though he was unwilling to admit to this thought because he found it to be fantastic!
Ye Tianfan once again reinstated his flying sword and flew toward the original Sand City, unaware that after he flew away, a withered old man crawled out from a mound, his sunken eyes following Ye Tianfan as he murmured, "Why co back again? Leaving behind the previous mory, isn't it good?"
Then, after speaking these words, the old man brandished a flag and slowly pursued Ye Tianfan.
Ye Tianfan soon arrived at the original location of Sand City, which was the ruin described by the Real Man of the Earth Pavilion. This ti, what appeared before Ye Tianfan was no longer Sand City but a ruin filled with an aura of death!
Ye Tianfan gazed with astonishnt at the ruin filled with the aura of death, recognizing it because the arrangent of streets in this ruin was nearly identical to what he had seen in Sand City before.
However, because of severe damage suffered in many places, despite its resemblance, many parts were different.
Ye Tianfan realized that this place was indeed Sand City, and the ruin was the Sand City he had previously seen!
Why did Sand City turn into this? Ye Tianfan looked at its current appearance, a deep confusion flashing in his eyes!
If this place was a ruin from the beginning, then what were his previous experiences? Why did he go through all that?
Ye Tianfan wanted to step into the ruin and see if he could find answers!
But Ye Tianfan recalled the words spoken by the Real Man of the Earth Pavilion, about the danger within. Though the Pingyue Sect was small in family and business, the power of the Real Man of the Earth Pavilion should be much stronger than Ye Tianfan's; after all, the Real Man of the Earth Pavilion's power was at the Hundred Confluence Realm.
So for the sake of the sect, Real Man of the Earth Pavilion certainly would directly enter this ruin, but even Real Man of the Earth Pavilion warned of danger, aning its danger level must exceed the Hundred Confluence Realm!
Ye Tianfan carefully considered that when he deployed two defensive magical treasures, he could roughly withstand a full-force attack from those in the early stages of the Hundred Confluence Realm, equivalent to a full-force attack from soone at the first, second, or third layer of the Hundred Confluence Realm!
Usually, people don't resort to using full force right away, so Ye Tianfan believed he could dodge the dangers in the ruin, and since he wouldn't be entangled with them, he could quickly run away if a threat arose, ensuring he wouldn't fall in there.
Of course, there could be unexpected situations, but Ye Tianfan had already fully prepared, and he was ready to go all out while continuously observing his surroundings!
Just as Ye Tianfan was preparing to enter the ruin, he suddenly heard so noises from behind, prompting him to stop quickly and look toward the source warily!
"Hehehe! Senior Brother Tianfan, we et again!"
The person turned out to be the withered old man who appeared after Ye Tianfan left.
Ye Tianfan beca even more alert upon seeing the old man's appearance, feeling the power at about the Hundred Confluence Realm, deepening his wariness!
But Ye Tianfan froze for a mont upon hearing the old man's words because the old man actually called him 'Senior Brother'!
This made Ye Tianfan wonder if his true age was hundreds of years old, for why would such an elder call him Senior Brother!
"Who are you?" Ye Tianfan asked cautiously!
The old man chuckled and said, "Senior Brother Tianfan, no need to be so guarded. We went through an event together before!"
While Ye Tianfan listened to the old man's words, he maintained his caution and tried to recall where he had seen this old man before, but despite trying continuously, he couldn't rember ever eting him!
"Who exactly are you?" Ye Tianfan questioned as he wondered why the old man would say that, but after thinking it over, he still hadn't recalled where he had encountered this old man. He was not sure if he had fought alongside him in that last monstrous event, since virtually all sects were at the Taichu Sect at the ti, so for any cultivator in the world to say they had previously fought alongside Ye Tianfan, it wouldn't be incorrect at all!
However, looking at the old man's appearance, Ye Tianfan felt he was a loose cultivator, but he still asked, "Are you referring to the previously nearly apocalyptic event?"
"No!" The old man shook his head and smiled saying, "Did not expect Senior Brother Tianfan to forget so quickly, but of course, my present appearance doesn't match what you saw before, so not recognizing is normal."
Ye Tianfan frowned upon hearing this, previously not this appearance?
Ye Tianfan carefully scrutinized the old man again but still couldn't figure out who he was. Just when Ye Tianfan was about to give up and directly ask the old man to reveal his identity, he suddenly noticed an indistinct crescent moon mark on the old man's garnt!
Upon seeing this mark, a flash of enlightennt struck Ye Tianfan's mind!
Ye Tianfan seed to know who the old man before him was, but even if Ye Tianfan guessed the old man's identity, he still didn't dare confirm it, as the old man's current appearance was vastly different from before!
