Of course, it was too late for him when he was trapped. He could only hope that someone could get the treasure map that he had altered and find this place. As for the purpose of the great formation that these marked places were connected to each other, the Ghost Immortal senior did not understand. However, based on his experience, it was obviously related to the accident he had experienced before!
However, when Li Sisui couldn't suppress his curiosity and inquired about the accident, the Ghost Immortal remained silent. Although the Ghost Immortal did not appear, Li Sisui could say that he had felt the same kind of trembling from the bottom of his heart that the Ghost Immortal, who lived in his sea of consciousness, had experienced!
Although more than ten thousand years have passed, the mark of that accident is so deep that even now, the Ghost Immortal dares not look directly at it. That fear, which comes from the very soul, is something that one would never show unless they experienced it firsthand. Even a senior Ghost Immortal, with his immortal status, was so terrified. It's unimaginable what exactly happened back then...
Helpless, Li Sisui could not press the matter further and had to give up. However, apart from not mentioning the accident, the Ghost Immortal was very open about everything else, which gave Li Sisui a completely new understanding of Shura Ridge!
Although there are not numerous sects like at Mount Fugu in Sage Hill, there are still tribal factions here. However, the relationships between them are more naked and straightforward. They gather when they win and scatter when one suffers a loss. Countless forces, large and small, gather and disperse unpredictably, and the story of one day reaching the top and the next day being wiped out is constantly playing out!
According to Senior Ghost Immortal's understanding, those who can reach Shura Ridge are all exceptionally talented and possess heaven-defying cultivation. Facing cultivators of such strength, the simple calculation of one plus one equals two by banding together is no longer effective. There are many stories of one person wiping out an entire tribe on Shura Ridge. Although the stories that came from Senior Ghost Immortal were all ancient tales, by learning from the past, Li Sisui naturally gained a deeper understanding of Shura Ridge!
The law of the jungle is naked; the strong prey on the weak. As long as you are strong enough, you can crush everything. Otherwise, you can only wait to be crushed!
As time goes by, people come and go, and the strong become stronger. Every cultivator who survives in Shura Ridge today is gold after the great waves have washed away the sand. Their fate and strength are beyond doubt. Under the cautious words of the Ghost Immortal senior, Li Sisui could not help but put away his contempt!
Although he was blessed with the protagonist's halo and possessed the traditional skill of courting death, after listening to the words of the Ghost Immortal senior, he still felt that one should be more low-key. It was better to have everything under control than to face the unknown storms head-on. Of course, for those who dared to provoke him, he would naturally kill them with thunderous means to avoid any worries or to prevent other cultivators from thinking that he was a pushover, which would bring endless trouble later!
"It seems that Guangyouzi is no ordinary person. He has managed to live until now and even cross the Mitian Bridge and the River of Rebirth on his own. I just don't know if he is alive or dead now... But to be honest, there's no need to worry too much. Since we have the map, we can just go and search for them one by one. We're bound to find something!"
Li Sisui's eyes flashed with wariness. His slow sword domain already covered an area of several kilometers. Although he didn't look directly at Leng Rushuang, he had his own thoughts on her words. The certainty and calmness in his words restored Leng Rushuang's previously flustered state of mind to peace. She then calmly said:
"That's true. As long as we're careful, even if we can't win, we can still run away!"
As she spoke, Leng Rushuang looked up, revealing her pointed chin, and glanced at the eagle circling overhead. Her expression returned to its usual aloofness, but for a moment, her gaze softened when it fell on Li Sishi.
"The closest place to Green Lake should be this Tianzu Kiln. How about we make this our first stop?"
Leng Rushuang lowered her head and stared at the treasure map. Then she stretched out her slender, jade-like finger and pointed to a place marked on the map. It was a low-lying depression surrounded by peaks, and the three characters "Tianzu Kiln" were engraved next to it in ancient script!
"I think we should go to Broken Halberd City to learn more before making any plans. After all, it's where all the cultivators of Shura Ridge gather now, and it's where the most information is gathered. These natural and forbidden areas have existed in Shura Ridge for countless years, so gathering some preliminary intelligence should be a piece of cake. With these preparations, it won't be too late to go..."
Regarding Broken Halberd City, the Ghost Immortal showed a hint of surprise for the first time. Clearly, this name had finally touched upon a blind spot in his experience. As for Li Si, the reason he knew about this place was naturally thanks to the three Qu brothers. In his storage ring, there was a room card for Qingyuan Tower in Broken Halberd City...
As they chatted along the way, Senior Ghost Immortal truly lived up to his reputation as an immortal. Putting aside his cultivation level, his experience alone could be described as all-encompassing. No matter what Li Sisui asked, he could explain it in detail. This gave Li Sisui a completely new understanding of the world before him. However, he was sometimes curious: was Senior Ghost Immortal really omniscient?
The answer is naturally no. As long as Li Sisui can escape some of the problems from his previous world, even a ghost immortal would be completely baffled. After all, in the world of cultivation, metaphysics is the primary driving force, not science. Naturally, he would be utterly confused by Li Sisui's questions...
Later, when he discovered what was written on the card, he wanted to get some clues from the Ghost Immortal Senior. However, the Ghost Immortal Senior knew nothing about Broken Halberd City. Just as he was somewhat surprised, the Ghost Immortal mentioned with a slight hesitation that although he had never heard of Broken Halberd City, in his time, there was a Broken Halberd Trio that was very famous and influential!
It's just unknown whether this Trio of Broken Halberds has any connection with Broken Halberd City. In the era of the Ghost Immortal, the Trio of Broken Halberds, with their powerful influence, gradually gathered a tribe for information gathering and exchange. Moreover, under the deterrence of their strength, the tribe could only communicate in a civilized manner and was not allowed to fight. Before long, the tribe spread among cultivators and grew stronger day by day!
