Looking out, the vast expanse of the boundless plain stretches endlessly. Apart from the weeds and trees that grow in the Desert, there is not a single towering peak to be seen on the land. For miles, it is all flat terrain, and the ground beneath seems to have been flattened by human hands, allowing for unrestricted horseback riding.
However, this vast plain is shrouded in a layer of white mist. On the other side of the plain lies an unseen land, completely enveloped in this white dust fog, making it impossible to discern what lies within. This mist-covered area is none other than the famous Wanbingyuan of Xia County.
In recent days, Wanbingyuan has been visited by countless uninvited guests. While many are locals from Xia County, even more are outsiders. Without exception, these individuals are powerful Cultivators, and their purpose for coming here is simple: to seek the Rare Treasure that is about to emerge from Wanbingyuan.
A few days ago, brilliant rays of light illuminated the sky above Wanbingyuan, and colorful clouds gathered towards its direction. These phenomena clearly indicated one thing—there is a Rare Treasure about to appear in Wanbingyuan.
There have been precedents for Rare Treasure appearing in Wanbingyuan. Although no one knows when Wanbingyuan first appeared on this continent, historical records indicate that several Rare Treasures have emerged from it over time. Each of these treasures has been extraordinary, and anyone who possesses them becomes an immensely powerful figure. However, each emergence of a Rare Treasure has also brought about bloodshed, resulting in countless skilled individuals falling.
The emergence of a Rare Treasure inevitably brings bloodshed, and this time will likely be no exception.
Despite this, countless Cultivators continue to rush towards Wanbingyuan without hesitation. In just a few days, thousands have gathered outside of Wanbingyuan. These are not ordinary civilians; they are thousands of formidable Cultivators. Most among them have already reached the Thunder Master Realm, with very few at the level of Thunderer. Even some from the realm of Thunder Sovereign have arrived, and certain Sects have sent teams of over a hundred members to form groups for treasure hunting.
Thousands of Cultivators above the Thunder Master Realm possess strength that nearly surpasses that of an average fourth-tier Sect, rivaling those of powerful fifth-rank sects.
Moreover, even more people are arriving from various parts of the continent towards Wanbingyuan. If they wait a few more days, it is likely that tens of thousands will gather outside of Wanbingyuan. The scale at that time may only be comparable to a few select Six Sects Sects.
Coincidentally, these days coincide with the day when the Tide Mist surges around Wanbingyuan. As a result, these thousands are blocked outside and occupy different areas, quietly waiting for the mist to recede.
The situation at Wanbingyuan is quite unique; every year it is enveloped by this strange Tide Mist for three to five days. The timing of its appearance is highly unstable. Within this mist, even one's Divine Consciousness cannot penetrate; let alone seeing with one's eyes. Even highly skilled Cultivators can become lost within it. There was once a powerful individual from the realm of the Thunder Lord who got lost in this mist; since then, very few dare to enter Wanbingyuan on days when the mist rises.
Although there are also some Thunder Lord Experts among these thousands of Cultivators, none dare to step inside. After all, no one wants to get lost in this mist; what they truly desire are the Rare Treasures within Wanbingyuan. Waiting three to five days is not something they mind.
Wanbingyuan is located in the Southern Region of Xia County. Although it covers a vast area, finding this plain is not easy, especially since there is a dense jungle separating the two. Few outsiders can quickly locate this place.
Nevertheless, there are still countless Cultivators rushing toward this direction. Upon closer inspection, there is a striking gray figure among the crowd.
He wears a gray robe and has long black hair, with a seven-foot-long sword at his waist. While this is not particularly special, he is wearing a theatrical mask on his face, which undoubtedly indicates that he wants to conceal his identity. Such individuals are not uncommon; many among the thousands do not wish to reveal their identities and use various means to disguise themselves. However, he is the first to wear a mask, making him the most noticeable.
However, none of the people around him dare to laugh out loud because his aura is indeed somewhat terrifying. Waves of gray Killing Intent surround him, and his exposed eyes are cold and merciless. He appears like a block of ice radiating murderous intent, and his indifferent demeanor makes others feel a chill. Such a person would make others hesitate to provoke him, let alone mock him.
Inside his robe, however, there is something bulging that no one knows about—a crystal-clear bird that happens to be drunk.
This person is none other than Sun Zhe, and the drunken bird is Jingjing.
After shaking off two experts behind Wang Kun in the city, Sun Zhe had Gao Shou lead him to Wanbingyuan. Gao Shou did not exaggerate; he was indeed very familiar with this area. While others would take two or three days to reach here, under his guidance, Sun Zhe arrived at Wanbingyuan in just one day.
However, after bringing Sun Zhe to Wanbingyuan, Gao Shou left on his own. On one hand, he needed to return with elixirs to save lives; on the other hand, he did not want to put himself in danger. According to his reasoning, he lacked the fortune for such risks due to his poor character.
Sun Zhe naturally did not stop him from leaving. The cultivation level of Thunder Master was not enough in this situation. Moreover, Sun Zhe himself did not come specifically for this Rare Treasure. Of course, if there were truly a Rare Treasure that caught his interest, he wouldn’t mind competing for it.
To avoid being discovered by the members of the Golden Thunder Sect, Sun Zhe deliberately disguised himself. Not only did he change his appearance and attire completely, but he also intentionally altered his demeanor. Sun Zhe believed that even if the members of the Golden Thunder Sect stood right in front of him, they would never recognize him as the original Sun Zhe.
As he walked forward, a rare sense of astonishment surged within him. He did not expect that a single Rare Treasure could attract so many experts. Almost everyone he glanced at was a first-level Cultivator of Thunder Master, and it was common to see experts at the level of Thunder Sovereign. He had already spotted several strong individuals from the Realm of the Thunder Lord.
Here, the Cultivators, who rarely appeared in external towns, seemed as common as cabbages and were everywhere—yet they were so cheap. When the true emergence of the Rare Treasure occurs, how many of these thousands of Cultivators will actually survive? Sun Zhe dared not imagine.
Wealth brings death to man, and birds perish for food.
This law has never changed since ancient times.
