After leaving Huang Tiecheng, Bai Hao suddenly felt somewhat aimless.
"The Heavenly Ladder... how do we find it?"
He wasn't present when the Sun God left the Heavenly Ladder. Even Su Xuanyi and his group, who had received the Sun God's reward, had searched for so many years but hadn't found the Heavenly Ladder, let alone Bai Hao.
On this vast continent, where can we find it?
At that moment, Bai Hao suddenly felt a sense of confusion and helplessness.
Having experienced so much, from the Divine Radiance Continent to the crumbling Divine Origin Dynasty world, and then from the cursed Divine Origin Dynasty to the world five thousand years ago, through all the twists and turns, some people accompanied him on the initial journey, but in the end, they still couldn't stay on the same path.
Having arrived here, Su Jiaojiao was the only one who could be considered his companion. But Su Jiaojiao's original goal was to stay and live here, and now that she had achieved her goal, it was impossible for her to go back with Bai Hao.
In other words, Bai Hao is now truly all alone, with no way forward and no way back.
"I just want to go back to the Divine Radiance Continent and be a senior disciple of a sect in peace. Why is it so difficult?" Bai Hao was very frustrated.
He really didn't want to get involved in so much, whether it was the collapsing Divine Source Dynasty, the Primordial Flame, the struggle between humans and divine beasts, or the curse of soul separation. None of it was related to him, and he didn't want to change anything. He just wanted to go home.
In that instant, Bai Hao felt a little tired...
The road is too difficult to walk alone.
However, Bai Hao quickly banished these negative emotions from his mind: "I probably need to clear my head and not think about these things for now. I should relax. Young people shouldn't be so pessimistic."
Having too many things to do and constantly suppressing your thoughts can easily overwhelm your mind, and you might accidentally think in the wrong direction.
You need to relax and balance work and rest.
"Go out and explore, see how this world is so beautiful and how it differs from the Divine Radiance Continent."
After making up his mind, Bai Hao left and set off towards the beautiful landscapes of the country to see the stunning scenery.
...
This continent is very large, much larger than the Divine Radiance Continent. The mountains and rivers are different, and the scenery is varied. However, there are also many places similar to the Divine Radiance Continent, such as the East, West, South, North, and South regions, where the Inviting Moon Sect, Pill Sect, Falling Sea Sect, Demon Suppressing Sect, and Inviting Moon Sect are all located.
However, there were no Chu Kingdom or Da Cang Kingdom, because the Shenyuan Dynasty had not yet collapsed. To establish a country and declare oneself emperor under the Shenyuan Dynasty would be tantamount to rebellion.
In addition, Bai Hao also found some places that were not found on the Divine Radiance Continent—the old sites of the three divine beasts.
Long ago, the sun god Liuli led humanity, using the power of solar lightning, to seize the continent that originally belonged to the divine beasts. The three divine beasts were almost wiped out in subsequent battles, leaving only a few barely surviving descendants. The Zhong and Ri tribes hid in the darkness of the continent, too afraid to emerge.
Among them, the former site of the True Dragon Clan is a deep sea called the "Sea of Annihilation".
The Sea of Annihilation is unfathomably deep, and no cultivator has ever reached its depths since ancient times. Furthermore, the Sea of Annihilation is desolate and vast, its other side shrouded in mist. Legend has it that on the other side of the world, at its edge, many have embarked on solitary boats with fervent hearts, seeking to find the end of the world.
But none of those lone boats that sailed to the other side of the Sea of Desolation ever returned.
Therefore, many people believe that there are many ferocious sea beasts in the Sea of Annihilation that have eaten those people. Some even believe that the True Dragon Clan has not been completely wiped out, and that some escaped and are hiding in the Sea of Annihilation.
Therefore, the sect leader of the Inviting Moon Sect personally came to investigate, but the result of the investigation was that there were no more true dragons in the Sea of Annihilation.
However, those who went to the other side of the Sea of Annihilation never returned, so the other side of the Sea of Annihilation was also known as the "Land of Death," and gradually no one dared to go and explore it anymore.
Bai Hao arrived at the edge of the Sea of Annihilation. A tranquil sea breeze greeted him, carrying not a fishy smell, but a faint fragrance, like nectar, alluring and intoxicating.
On the other side of the Sea of Annihilation, a mist hangs in the air, and no matter how you look at it, you can't see what's behind the mist.
While ordinary cultivators cannot see the other side of the sea, it is easy for Bai Hao.
He took flight and soared thousands of miles, passing through layers of mist, without saying a word.
On the other side of the sea, there is still the sea, with the azure water reflecting the blue sky and white clouds. On the vast sea, you can occasionally see some dead wood—planks left behind by ships that have rotted at sea.
Bai Hao saw a ship that had not yet been corroded by the sea, but only two skeletons remained on it. They were the people who had come to explore what was on the other side of the sea, but in the end, they did not die in the mouths of sea beasts, but in the vast ocean.
In reality, they encountered nothing; on the other side of the sea, there was still just the sea. But they refused to believe this, firmly believing that there must be another place beyond the sea's edge. So they kept moving forward, and forward… until their lives faded away in the vast expanse of time…
Perhaps the sect leader of the Inviting Moon Sect saw the same scene when he arrived. He understood what was going on, but he didn't explain. He only said that there was no true dragon clan in the Sea of Annihilation.
Perhaps he felt that even if he told them hundreds of years ago, those people wouldn't believe him, so he simply kept quiet and let life after life disappear in the Sea of Annihilation. When enough people died, they would naturally stop thinking about the Sea of Annihilation.
After leaving the Sea of Annihilation, Bai Hao arrived at the former site of the second divine beast—the Divine Phoenix Clan.
The Divine Phoenix Clan possesses the purest phoenix bloodline and resides in the highest mountain range on the continent—the Kunlun Mountains!
Kunlun Mountain is full of smooth cliffs, with no path leading to the summit. The stones of Zi'e Kunlun Mountain are not ordinary stones, but a type of rock called "Cuoshan Stone". Legend has it that this Cuoshan Stone existed since the beginning of chaos, and even cultivators at the Healing Spirit stage could not shake it in the slightest.
Furthermore, there is an invisible barrier surrounding Kunlun Mountain, left behind by the Divine Phoenix Clan. Even though the Divine Phoenix Clan no longer exists, this barrier still exists. Only those at the Supreme Realm can pass through it, but even those at the Supreme Realm cannot break through this barrier.
So far, only a few sect leaders have been to Kunlun Mountain; no one else has ever been there.
Compared to the Sea of Annihilation, the barrier's blocking effect is more pronounced.
This time, Bai Hao also flew to the top of Kunlun Mountain.
The area at the foot of the Kunlun Mountains is warm like spring, but the mountaintop is covered in snow, a blanket of white, with snow on the ground that never melts.
Bai Hao walked through the wind and snow and saw a volcano not far away, still emitting heat and melting the falling snowflakes into water droplets that evaporated in the air...
