Located in the western part of the Eastern Desolate Continent, the Blood Sea Desert spans over tens of thousands of miles, with every grain of sand and stone appearing as if dyed in crimson blood.
The Blood Sea Desert is devoid of human presence for tens of thousands of miles, populated only by Spirit Beasts, and filled with dangerous areas. Ordinary Thunder Tribulation Experts who venture inside face a nine-out-of-ten chance of death, making it a death zone in the eyes of Martial Artists.
In the past, Thunder Tribulation Experts from the Three Thousand Great Worlds kept their distance from the Blood Sea Desert. However, since the rumor erged that the desert might contain the ruins of an Ancient Battlefield and possibly Ancient Immortal Relics, the area has beco exceptionally lively.
Since the news broke, one can see a multitude of Thunder Tribulation Experts from all over the Three Thousand Great Worlds arriving daily, forming groups of three to five to venture into the desert.
Due to the fierce Spirit Beasts and nurous treacherous areas within the desert, those loose cultivators with average strength have no choice but to team up temporarily.
As a result, around the Blood Sea Desert’s periter, at almost every mont, many experts can be seen gathering and then heading into the depths of the desert.
At this very mont, in the western part of the Blood Sea Desert, a stunning beauty in a pale yellow dress is holding the hand of a beautifully delicate young girl, walking back and forth along the edge of the desert.
The beautiful woman appears to be about twenty, with breathtaking features, skin as fair as snow, and an ethereal presence that captivates the beholder. Her long, flowing black hair cascades gracefully down to her elegantly curved waist.
The young girl is about ten years old, with her hair styled in two twin buns, delicate eyebrows, a straight nose, lips red as cherries, and lively black eyes that dart around, making her appear exceptionally spirited.
The young girl wears a peach blossom in her hair and holds another one in her hand, seemingly highly fond of peach blossoms.
The pair of beauties have been lingering at the desert’s edge for quite so ti, seemingly weighing a decision.
"Sister Wui, you make the decision. Are we going in or not?"
After a mont, the young girl looked up at the beautiful woman and asked.
The stunning woman nad "Wui" glanced towards the depths of the Blood Sea Desert, patted the young girl’s head, and said, "Shall we go in? Inside is too dangerous, I’m afraid we might never co out; but if we don’t go in, what if we encounter Ancient Immortal Relics by chance? Ah... Little Mu Yu, I’m really undecided!"
The beauty lightly bit her red lips, a worried expression on her face as she spoke to the young girl nad "Mu Yu."
If Fang Bai were here, he would recognize the pair as his close friends Ye Wui, whom he t in the secular world, and Yan Muyu, whom he got to know in the Three Thousand Great Worlds.
When Fang Bai t Yan Muyu, she was only five or six years old. At the ti, Fang Bai left, and Yan Muyu wanted to follow him to explore the Three Thousand Great Worlds together. Fang Bai told her to reach the high rank of the Golden Core first before seeking him out.
It was an offhand remark ant to appease Yan Muyu, but she rembered it by heart.
After Fang Bai’s departure, Yan Muyu secluded herself for intensive cultivation, studying the Martial Arts Techniques taught by Fang Bai. She was extraordinarily intelligent, with high aptitude and strong Wuxing, advancing rapidly in cultivation, quickly reaching the high rank of the Golden Core.
Subsequently, Yan Muyu left a letter for her family and found ways to leave ho, searching the world for Fang Bai.
Back then, as a six or seven-year-old girl, she encountered nurous dangers along her journey. Fortunately, she was clever, had a sweet tongue, and due to her young age, frequently received assistance from powerful individuals, always managing to escape from crises unhard.
During this ti, Yan Muyu also had several fortuitous encounters, and while many strong fighters saw her talent and wanted to take her as their disciple, she declined all offers, focusing solely on finding Fang Bai.
Later, with the assistance of several Thunder Tribulation loose cultivators, Yan Muyu arrived at the Eastern Desolate Continent and, by chance, t Ye Wui, who was also searching for Fang Bai.
By that ti, Yan Muyu’s cultivation level had already reached Soul Severing Perfection, just one step away from the Heavenly Tribulation stage.
The beautiful woman and the young girl felt an instant connection and quickly beca close friends. Eventually, during their conversations, they realized their mutual acquaintance with Fang Bai.
After coming to the Three Thousand Great Worlds, Ye Wui was a lone loose cultivator, but her fortune was favorable, and her encounters were extraordinary. She had now beco a powerful practitioner of the second level of the Thunder Tribulation.
This ti, Ye Wui and Yan Muyu ca to the Blood Sea Desert for two reasons.
Firstly, they had also heard the news about the ruins of the Ancient Battlefield and ca out of curiosity, hoping to try their luck.
Secondly, with so many experts gathered here and the flow of information abundant, they hoped to take the chance to gather any news about Fang Bai.
Upon arriving at the Blood Sea Desert and hearing the nurous terrifying rumors from so experts, they hesitated, concerned that if they ventured into the Martial Arts death zone, they might lose their lives without ever seeing Fang Bai, leaving them with regrets.
The two won had been lingering at the desert’s edge for half a day, yet they couldn’t make a final decision.
"Then how about this..."
Yan Muyu blinked her lively eyes and took out a Jade Pendant, saying to Ye Wui, "This Jade Pendant was given to by Brother Fang Bai. It has two sides. I will toss it up and catch it in my hand. If it lands facing up, we’ll go in; if it’s face down, we won’t. Sister Wui, what do you think?"
The Jade Pendant was a gift Fang Bai gave to Yan Muyu for protection when he left Peach Blossom Town, and Yan Muyu had never used it, keeping it in perfect condition.
Ye Wui nodded and said, "Alright, we’ll leave it to fate!"
Yan Muyu tossed the Jade Pendant high into the air, waiting for it to fall, then caught it in her right palm.
The two won leaned over to look, exchanged a glance, and said in unison, "It’s facing up!"
"In that case, let’s go in! Whether we live or die, it’s up to fate!"
Ye Wui said with resignation.
Yan Muyu put away the Jade Pendant, saying earnestly, "I believe we will have good luck, and the heavens will favor us!"
Ye Wui nodded seriously.
Having made their decision, the two won no longer hesitated and, hand in hand, followed a group of experts into the depths of the Blood Sea Desert.
The group of experts walking ahead of them wore black garnts, with a black hawk embroidered on their chests, wings spread in flight. If Fang Bai were present, he would instantly recognize this group as being from the Divine Eagle Sect.
Previously, during the betrothal alliance with the Alchemy Immortal City Lord Mansion, the Divine Eagle Sect sent Elder Xue Hongxing, accompanied by direct disciple Tu Dajiang, to the City Lord Mansion, while Sect Master Feng Lingxiao led another team of Sect experts to the Blood Sea Desert.
The captivating appearance and bearing of Ye Wui and Yan Muyu caused several young male disciples from the Divine Eagle Sect ahead of them to frequently turn back, their eyes filled with admiration.
Soon, it attracted the attention of the Divine Eagle Sect Master, Feng Lingxiao.
"Oh? That older female there is actually an Innate Wind Spirit Root! And the little girl is an Innate Wood Spirit Root. To find two Innate Spiritual Roots here at the sa ti, and they’re both loose cultivators, how rare!"
Feng Lingxiao turned his head, carefully observing Ye Wui and Yan Muyu, his eyes showing a look of surprise.
