Tycoon War God

Chapter 998: Chapter 998: Lost Canyon, Old Ghost of Fengdu

Lost Canyon, located at the border of the Barbarian Continent, Lv Zhou, and Feng Zhou, in no man’s land.

Bands of rogues from all walks of life roam unchecked.

There are even many Blacklist Assassins mixed in Lost Canyon.

Lost Canyon is famous because, according to legend, a Tribulation-Crossing Ancestor once disappeared here.

That Tribulation-Crossing Ancestor vanished without a trace after entering the canyon.

Alive, there was no sign of him; dead, no body was found.

Hence, the fame of Lost Canyon spread.

It is rumored that Lost Canyon possesses mysterious powers, where even a Tribulation-Crossing Ancestor who enters gets lost and can no longer return to the real world.

Regardless of whether these rumors are true or false, almost no Tribulation-Crossing Ancestor is willing to visit that ghostly place.

No one wants to invite trouble for themselves.

When Lin Mu mentioned wanting to go to Lost Canyon, everyone unanimously opposed it.

In the minds of Kuang Jin and others, Lin Mu is already a strength of a Tribulation-Crossing Ancestor.

Better safe than sorry, if by any chance he disappears in Lost Canyon, it would truly be a world-class joke.

But what Lin Mu has decided, others’ opposition is futile.

After handling the aftermath at Renowned Swords, Lin Mu set off for Lost Canyon with the Bloodthirsty Old Demon.

Once again, earning the envy of others.

The Bloodthirsty Old Demon seems to have become Lin Mu’s absolute confidant.

After setting off in the Imperial Sky Flying Boat, Lin Mu retreated to cultivate and refine his realm.

Recently, his advancement has been too rapid, requiring time to settle.

Even in his previous life, his progress was never this fast.

Not to mention the help of the Heavenly Dao Myriad Laws Record in this life, making his power at the same realm several times stronger than before.

Three months later, at the outskirts of Lost Canyon.

Lost Canyon is full of countless genius earth treasures, which many people bring out for trade.

Over time, the outskirts of Lost Canyon formed a place similar to a market.

"Old Ghost, we haven’t had any big catches lately, the boss is already dissatisfied..."

In a teahouse where cultivators rest, a young attendant speaks to the elderly shopkeeper.

The shopkeeper and assistants at this teahouse are of no weak cultivation, the assistant is at the Nascent Soul Stage, and the shopkeeper is at the Divinity Transformation Stage.

If outside, they would be enough to be sect leaders or elders of some small sects, but here, they are merely teahouse shopkeepers.

"Shut up! What do you know, our business doesn’t open for half a year, but one opening feeds us for half a year..."

The shopkeeper has the look of a bandit, more than a businessman.

A few scattered customers drinking tea in the teahouse ignore the dialogue between the shopkeeper and the assistant.

The tea here is made from top-notch spiritual materials. While it might not grant enlightenment and immortality to ordinary people, it definitely prolongs life.

As the assistant and shopkeeper chat idly, a thunderous roar comes from the sky, and suddenly an Imperial Sky Flying Boat appears.

"Imperial Sky Flying Boat?! Stay sharp!"

The shopkeeper’s laziness vanishes, his eyes sparkling.

Those who can use the Imperial Sky Flying Boat must be rich.

Besides the Holy Lands and first-tier sects, only a few top-tier second-tier sects could afford it.

As for other small sects, just the massive consumption of Spirit Stones the boat requires could bankrupt them!

No matter how sensitive the visitor’s identity might be, the shopkeeper couldn’t care less.

Once you enter this lost land, identity is an illusion.

Even if you are an heir of the Tribulation-Crossing Ancestor, you might still get killed!

The madmen inside Lost Canyon bet that the Tribulation-Crossing Ancestors wouldn’t dare to come to the Lost Canyon!

Indeed, over the past thousands of years, their bet paid off.

Secretly killing several heirs of Tribulation-Crossing Ancestors resulted in absolutely nothing happening.

The Imperial Sky Flying Boat stops, and two figures fly out.

"Peak of Integration!"

Seeing the cultivation level of the old man in red, the shopkeeper’s expression changes slightly.

Any thoughts of murder and robbery dissipate by seventy or eighty percent.

Those at the peak of Integration are not the ones to be trifled with.

Anyone daring to come to Lost Canyon at the peak of Integration is a tricky character!

"Damn it!"

The shopkeeper suddenly curses.

Fearing what was coming, the two people getting off the Imperial Sky Flying Boat surprisingly head towards the teahouse.

The shopkeeper hurriedly gives the young assistant a look.

"Please come in, we have the finest Divine Continent Fragrant Tea, Four Seas Immortal Brew, and more..."

"We’re looking for someone..."

The old man in red coldly interrupts the assistant.

The assistant stops short, quickly switching to a smiling face: "Then you’ve come to the right place, not to brag, but there’s nothing about Lost Canyon I don’t know!"

The old man in red gives an amused glance at the eager assistant and teases, "The person I’m looking for is called Feng Tianhua, known as the Old Ghost of Fengdu."

The assistant’s face freezes instantly, laughing off awkwardly: "You must be joking, sir."

The old man in red’s smile vanishes, speaking calmly, "Do I seem like I’m joking?"

The assistant chuckles twice, not knowing how to respond.

At that moment, the shopkeeper comes out from behind the counter, smiling and saying, "I am Feng Tianhua, as for the Old Ghost of Fengdu, that’s just a joke among friends..."

Upon hearing the shopkeeper declare his identity, the old man in red immediately stretches out his hand.

Feng Tianhua’s complexion changes, speaking urgently, "I’m from the Southern Region Gu She, you dare to do anything to me!"

"I don’t care if you’re the son-in-law or the bridegroom!"

The old man in red, at the peak of Integration, swiftly captures Feng Tianhua.

The customers in the teahouse, sensing danger, sneak out the back door.

They cannot afford to provoke the Great Power of Integration!

The old man in red exerts a bit of pressure, and Feng Tianhua’s internal organs feel as though they’re being crushed. He hastily cries out, "Whatever you wish, just say the word..."

No point in threats, Feng Tianhua becomes compliant.

The young assistant turns pale but doesn’t dare to run.

He, a mere Nascent Soul Stage, wouldn’t dare flee from a Great Power of Integration.

That would be tantamount to suicide.

Originally, the Great Power of Integration might have ignored him, but if he runs, he’ll be crushed to death with a casual flick.

"Answer whatever the master asks! Otherwise, die!"

The old man’s voice is icy cold.

Hearing this, Feng Tianhua is nearly scared out of his wits.

Of what stature is that white-clad man for a peak Integration expert to call him master?

Perhaps only the Saint Heir of the Central Divine Continent possesses such an imposing manner.

Feng Tianhua dares not hold onto any false hope and nods hastily.

While Lost Canyon has indeed dealt with many heirs of Tribulation-Crossing Ancestors, Feng Tianhua himself hasn’t killed any. He’s just a small figure from the lower levels, wouldn’t dare offend the strong.

"Does Wu Qingchen from the Ghost Market of the Southern Region in Lost Canyon still keep in touch with you?"

Upon hearing the name Wu Qingchen, Feng Tianhua shivers all over.

The man calmly states, "If you don’t answer, I can always perform Soul Search."

In the hands of a peak Integration expert, Feng Tianhua truly finds himself in a predicament between life and death.

"I..."

Just as Feng Tianhua is about to speak, a commotion arises not far away.

Accompanied by the noise, two figures ride swords and rush over.

Upon seeing the leading figure, a glint of excitement flashes in Feng Tianhua’s eyes.

Skull Lai, one of the three Guardians of the Lost Canyon outskirts, a peak Integration expert.

"Outsider, release the Old Ghost!"

Skull Lai’s voice is icy, like eternal cold.

The old man in red grins, "Skull Lai, twenty thousand years gone and you dare shout at this old man!"

Skull Lai is initially startled, then scrutinizes the old man in red with suspicion. His expression changes drastically.

"Bloodthirsty Old Demon! You’re still alive!"

A name like a shadow!

The Bloodthirsty Old Demon escaping from the hunt of three Tribulation-Crossing Ancestors, in places like the Black List and Lost Canyon, is absolutely legendary.

"The loner Bloodthirsty Old Demon is accompanied by someone this time?"

Skull Lai notes the serene Lin Mu beside him.
