Chapter 1910: Chapter 1908: Barbaric Forbidden Land
[Love you all, love the rewards!]
Tian Boguang was severely injured. To protect Desolate Stone Village, he fiercely killed a man in a black robe whose cultivation realm was more profound than his. As a result, Tian Boguang suffered serious injuries and fell victim to the "Netherworld Ghost Hand."
Years ago, Ye Tianchen first encountered the Nine Netherworld Underworld’s attack from the man in a black robe. Although the outcome was mutual destruction, Ye Tianchen was also struck by the "Netherworld Ghost Hand" at that time. This is a very eerie divine art and power; not only does it utterly destroy the victim’s physical body, but it also pulls out the soul, leaving the Divine Sense crushed from inside out. Except for a holy skill like the "Divine Light Great Flame Curse," there’s probably nothing else that can dispel this strange power!
To heal Tian Boguang’s injury, Ye Tianchen used many powers. Even his newly obtained power of the Spiritual Medicine Divine Grass was employed, but it was utterly to no avail. This was the first time he felt helpless—had tried every possible way, yet there wasn’t a sign of improvement. On the contrary, Tian Boguang’s injuries had only gotten worse. According to Ye Tianchen’s estimation, within three days, Tian Boguang would be completely wiped out!
"Hu Gao, is there anything that can save Brother Tian..." Ye Tianchen hurriedly asked.
"Hmm, boss, do you remember that Ten Thousand Year Old Ginseng?" Hu Gao nodded and looked at Ye Tianchen as he spoke.
"This... This Ten Thousand Year Old Ginseng comes and goes without a trace. Years ago, I luckily found it once while trying to save you, but such luck doesn’t always happen!"
Ye Tianchen actually considered that this Ten Thousand Year Old Ginseng still exists on Earth. A ginseng with immortal elixir-like efficacy, given time, would surely transform into an actual immortal elixir. This Ten Thousand Year Old Ginseng is the kind of thing that would drive every martial artist in the Martial Arts World mad.
Years ago, after Hu Gao was severely injured, Ye Tianchen tracked the whereabouts of this Ten Thousand Year Old Ginseng. What he didn’t expect was having such luck—finding it amidst a needle-in-a-haystack situation. Perhaps Hu Gao was indeed blessed with deep fortune, bound not to die!
Ye Tianchen remembered when he found the Ten Thousand Year Old Ginseng; it had already developed a massive amount of spiritual wisdom, transforming into a naked woman in his divine thought, pleading for her release. Later, the Ten Thousand Year Old Ginseng followed Ye Tianchen to save Hu Gao and successfully brought him back to life. Given these circumstances, Ye Tianchen didn’t slaughter the innocent and upheld his promise to let the Ten Thousand Year Old Ginseng go. However, after so many years, there hasn’t been any news of the Ten Thousand Year Old Ginseng. Can it be found again?
This Ten Thousand Year Old Ginseng, after enduring such a long era of cultivation, is becoming a real immortal elixir and has developed strong Spiritual Wisdom. How could it not know its dangerous situation? Every living being wants it and wants to devour it. It would definitely have found an extremely safe place to hide!
"Yes, this Ten Thousand Year Old Ginseng has developed Spiritual Wisdom and would have surely found a safe place to hide a long time ago!" Dongfang Meng said, furrowing her brows.
"I know, that’s exactly what I wanted to say. Do you remember the time Brother Tian and I frequently left early and returned late? It was because we discovered a place where we saw the Ten Thousand Year Old Ginseng rushing into, but we didn’t have the courage to enter!" Hu Gao earnestly spoke.
"Hmm? The Ten Thousand Year Old Ginseng rushed into such a place; what kind of place was that?" Ye Tianchen asked, furrowing his brows.
"Barbaric Forbidden Land!" Hu Gao stammered.
"Barbaric Forbidden Land? Why have I never heard of such a place?" Ye Tianchen asked in surprise.
"Because this place is the most dangerous place on Earth—the most terrifying—more so than even Sun Never Sets Mountain!" Tianshuang said with a serious expression.
"There’s such a place? I’ve never heard of it!" Ye Tianchen said, smiling incredulously.
Indeed, Ye Tianchen had become a formidable martial artist, battling in the Three Ancient Martial Worlds for many years. He should be familiar with many things about the Ancient Martial World, but this "Barbaric Forbidden Land" was new to him. What kind of place could this be?
Hu Gao and Tianshuang then briefly explained the situation concerning the "Barbaric Forbidden Land," leaving Ye Tianchen with a stunned expression, finding it all incredibly hard to believe!
Barbaric Forbidden Land is as terrifying as Sun Never Sets Mountain and Buzhou Mountain. Ye Tianchen had heard of Sun Never Sets Mountain and Buzhou Mountain—widely known as the Three Ancient Martial Worlds—but very few truly knew of the "Barbaric Forbidden Land." It’s absolutely a place martial artists wouldn’t dare to tread—a truly mysterious and unexplored territory!
Regarding the horror of Sun Never Sets Mountain, Buzhou Mountain, and Flame Valley, it’s common knowledge. Yet, over the years, there have always been fearless individuals willing to explore despite the risks, contributing to Earth’s mysterious allure. But within these forbidden zones, there have been daring expeditions. However, no one dared tread into the "Barbaric Forbidden Land" due to active threats within. Powerful beings exist within and remain inside—they have never emerged!
Consider Sun Never Sets Mountain, Buzhou Mountain, Flame Valley—filled with presumed powerful beings and Ancient Alien Races lurking within. Few have seen them directly; they remain lore. However, in "Barbaric Forbidden Land," people have witnessed powerful Demon Beasts and eerie creatures at the periphery. Yet, whoever dared venture inside never returned alive!
"Unexpectedly, there exists such a place within Song Mountain Ancient Martial World, and on Earth? You should have informed me earlier! Maybe I would’ve ventured there for an adventure by now!" Ye Tianchen said, smiling.
"Boss, it’s not that I didn’t tell you; it’s just incredibly dangerous. No one has survived it. Other forbidden zones have seen people go in, and though those who emerged didn’t live long, they survived. But in Barbaric Forbidden Land, none who entered ever lived to return!" Hu Gao said worriedly.
"Is it truly that dangerous?" Ye Tianchen asked in disbelief.
"Do you know Senior Feng Qingyang?" Tianshuang asked Ye Tianchen.
"Yes, what’s the matter?" Ye Tianchen replied.
"It’s rumored that Senior Feng Qingyang’s fellow disciple was astonishing, possibly achieving results greater than Senior Feng Qingyang himself. He entered Barbaric Forbidden Land and was never seen again!" Tianshuang said earnestly.
"Senior Feng Qingyang’s fellow disciple?" Ye Tianchen grew more confused, suspecting he must have been a very powerful individual!
"It was said that when Feng Qingyang’s disciple entered Barbaric Forbidden Land, he had reached Half-step Saint Realm—an undeniable powerhouse!" Hu Gao exclaimed in surprise.
"Half-step Saint Realm? Didn’t survive?" Ye Tianchen asked, revealing unprecedented shock.
Saint Realm—a realm of cultivation unlike any other, distinguishing vastly from any other cultivation realm. The leap from Martial Spirit Realm to Martial Saint Realm is a hurdle countless are stuck on, unable to transcend despite lifelong efforts. However, reaching Saint Realm opens vast new horizons, unlocking a completely different understanding of martial arts and the world!
Feng Qingyang’s disciple achieved Half-step Saint Realm—a powerful existence indeed, undoubtedly an overlord in his own right. Within the Martial Arts World, he would be unrivaled on Earth. Yet, even at this formidable stage, entering the "Barbaric Forbidden Land" led to demise—it’s bewildering!
"The reason Barbaric Forbidden Land is more terrifying than other forbidden zones is mainly due to the numerous powerful Demon Beasts and even Ancient Alien Races seen by many at its borders. This is why it remains unmentioned, unattainable and why no one dares challenge its forbidding mystery!" Hu Gao spoke with locked brows.
At this moment, Ye Tianchen surveyed everyone present, smiling slightly as he said, "I’m really curious about this ’Barbaric Forbidden Land.’ Such a place warrants an adventurous exploration—life would feel wasted otherwise!"
"Tianchen... it’s too risky, let’s consider other options!" Dongfang Meng said, shaking her head in concern.
"Yes, there must be other methods to save Brother Tian!" Tianshuang concurred.
"How about trying my body’s special healing powers again—it might work!" Zhang Ruotong urged anxiously.
"Tianchen..." Liu Rumei gazed at Ye Tianchen, not knowing what to say. She knew once Ye Tianchen decided something, he would definitely pursue it! (To be continued.
