Changsheng: My experience in patrolling the liver

Chapter 659 Ascending to the Primordial Beginning, Seeking the Dao! (Two Chapters Combined)

A faint light shone down from above, posing no problem for his eyes.

Therefore, even without using his mind to perceive, he could clearly see his surroundings.

There were dark, rocky cliffs on both sides, and he seemed to be in a valley.

There were some cracks in the ground beneath them, but that was all.

This detail made him realize how solid the ground was.

If this had happened in the Nine Provinces, the force of his smash would have been enough to easily destroy a large human city, so how could it have only left a few shallow cracks on the ground?

"Is it because of the terrible gravity of the environment?" Song Changming had a certain judgment in his mind.

This overwhelming weight is caused by the immense power of heaven and earth.

This is precisely why the rocks and all visible materials in this area are exceptionally hard and resilient.

After all, anything that couldn't withstand this gravity would have already been crushed and destroyed.

Besides this gravity, the spiritual energy floating in the air here is extremely rich.

If we make a rough comparison, it is truly more than a hundred times better than some spiritual lands in the Nine Provinces!
Such abundant and high-density spiritual energy was something Song Changming had never seen before in his life.

This made him even more certain that he had arrived at the legendary primordial continent, but he didn't know where he was on the primordial continent.

With a thought, Song Changming once again sensed the connection generated by the faint light within his body.

The connection was now even clearer and more definite, right above Song Changming's head.

To be more precise, it's right here in the sky!

Song Changming felt he had gotten used to the weight on his body, and with some effort, he turned over and looked up at the sky.

With two high mountains blocking the view, Song Changming's field of vision was not very wide. He could only see a few stars in the sky and a bright moon that was several times larger than the entire Kyushu!
Song Changming's attention immediately fell on the bright moon.

Its pure white color is like a round, beautiful jade plate. The moonlight and yin energy it emits are so bright and dreamlike that it resembles a painting in a scroll.

The witchcraft technique within Song Changming's body continued to operate on its own, drawing in the yin energy of the moon for refining.

Although he was in a secluded place and the amount of moonlight energy he absorbed was limited, he still felt something extraordinary.

"So powerful! Such pure moonlight!" Song Changming's eyes shone.

His physique, which had been somewhat exhausted from training in the Nine Provinces, was once again activated. His body was burning hot, and he felt a strong sense of tempering. Even the injuries on his body were healed faster due to the influx of this moonlight power.

Undoubtedly, this month is not the same as that month.
If he shared the same moon as Kyushu, he wouldn't have such powerful lunar energy at his disposal.

"It's truly amazing," Song Changming murmured to himself.

Putting everything else aside, the spiritual energy of this place and the bright moon in the sky were enough to satisfy him, and it was worth all the effort he had put into coming here.

However, the faint light given to him by the Abyss Emperor pointed to the sky, but there were only stars and the moon in the sky. Where was the Abyss Emperor waiting for him?

"Does this mean I have to climb up to the stars and the moon?" Song Changming still had the mood to make a few self-deprecating remarks.

Before long, Song Changming's injuries improved significantly, and he was able to sit up despite the weight of the object.

He was unable to contact Emperor Yuan for the time being, and the faint light mainly served to remind Emperor Yuan to come looking for him.

Song Changming didn't expect to find a powerful patron right away. He always preferred to solve problems on his own rather than ask for help or live at the mercy of others.

Putting Emperor Yuan out of his mind for the time being, Song Changming still needed to focus on the present.

He gradually extended his senses, his first task being to understand the situation in his area and whether it was safe enough.

Five li, ten li, twenty li.
As his perception expanded, a panoramic view centered on him appeared in his mind.

This secluded place, though described as a valley, looks more like a narrow, long fissure in the earth. Apart from the rocks, there is nothing else to be seen.

"That shouldn't be the case. Such a place with abundant spiritual energy should be lifeless, even if the living conditions are average." Based on his past experience, Song Changming was somewhat puzzled by the desolation of this place.

Just as he was about to continue exploring, a sense suddenly touched his spreading spiritual power.

Song Changming suddenly stood up, his God-Devouring Blade already drawn.

"Getting anxious"

He immediately realized that his senses had been captured.

He hadn't expected that his senses would be detected by the creatures here so quickly.

Soon, a bird flew down from the sky.

The bird was entirely azure blue; it was an ice bird!
Icebirds do exist in Frost Province of Kyushu, but they are not a creature of any strength, either in terms of size or other aspects.

The ice bird instantly locked onto Song Changming below and swooped down without hesitation, freezing everything in its path with frost.

Song Changming also felt a bone-chilling cold wind howling past, making his muscles and bones numb and his functions decline.

The power of a grandmaster surged around him, and his sword intent solidified into a tangible form, like thousands of sharp blades being drawn simultaneously, emitting a deafening roar of thousands of swords.

His injuries have not yet healed, and he has just arrived in this world, so he cannot fully unleash his strength. However, he is by no means someone who can be easily slaughtered.

After a century of dedicated practice, his greatest achievement was his mastery of the sword!
Born a swordsman, although he has not yet reached the saintly realm with his sword, his swordsmanship has improved by several major realms compared to the past!

Song Changming's eyes blazed with fury, and the blade in his hand burst forth with an intensely burning golden divine flame.

This is the Divine Flame Blade Qi formed by the combination of his blade energy and the fire seed within his body.

The nurturing of this fire seed is his second greatest achievement besides the Dao of the Blade. Now, compared to his other lightning seed, its power is no less than that of the other one!
After all, the number of strange fires in the Nine Provinces is much greater than that of strange lightning, and with his status as a Martial Emperor, these discovered strange fires are easily obtainable.

Fire overcomes ice!

Just as Song Changming was about to unleash his first strike since arriving in this world against the ice bird, a shout of unknown meaning suddenly came from afar.

Immediately following was an iron arrow that pierced through layers of spatial barriers, and with a whoosh, it pierced through the swooping ice bird before Song Changming could react.

The ice bird cried out in pain, shook its body, and then took flight again in a whirl.

Ice-blue blood gushed from its back, dripping down and congealing into clusters of azure ice flowers.

Song Changming frowned slightly and glanced back.

Three figures flew over and landed directly in front of Song Changming.

"Human race." Song Changming's heart stirred.

Judging from their appearance alone, the three figures were clearly all human, consisting of two women and one man.

The man was tall, a head taller than Song Changming, who was already quite tall, probably over two meters.

However, he doesn't look particularly robust; instead, he's rather slender.

He had long arms and legs, and a refined and handsome appearance. He wore a brocade robe that Song Changming had never seen before, and held an iron folding fan. Beside him was a blonde woman with golden eyes, who was also very tall. She held a white scepter in her hand, which was inlaid with a faintly glowing jade stone.

The woman had slightly high cheekbones, thin cheeks, and sharp eyes that revealed indifference.

On one side was a blue-haired, blue-eyed woman holding a longbow made of some unknown metal.

He was slightly shorter and more stocky, and had a short blade and quiver at his waist.

Unsurprisingly, the arrow that was just shot at the ice bird was fired by this blue-haired woman.

When the man saw Song Changming, he first glanced at the long sword in Song Changming's hand that was emitting golden divine flames, and then spoke a few words to Song Changming.

However, the language spoken by the other party was one that Song Changming had never heard before, and he could not understand its meaning for the time being.

The man seemed to realize this as well, and smiled at Song Changming.

Although we don't speak the same language, as fellow human beings, it's not difficult to convey our friendly attitude.

At least at their first meeting, the three men did not show any hostility toward Song Changming.

Song Changming, unaware of the situation, naturally wouldn't immediately turn his weapon against the three, but he also wouldn't let his guard down around them, choosing instead to observe the situation for the time being.

The blonde woman stepped forward, faced the wounded ice bird, and raised the scepter in her hand.

Suddenly, a golden and white brilliance flashed on the scepter, striking the ice bird directly.

“It’s not the power of a Grandmaster.” Song Changming observed the spells cast by the blonde woman and confirmed that the energy source was neither the power of a Grandmaster nor soul power.

The ice bird took flight, dodging the blonde woman's magic. It exhaled a large amount of frost and cold air, enveloping itself as it fled into the distance, disappearing in the blink of an eye.

The three of them did not chase after the ice bird, but instead turned their attention to Song Changming.

Perhaps realizing the language barrier, the man skillfully used gestures to indicate that Song Changming should come with them, and reiterated their friendliness as fellow humans.

The blonde woman standing nearby nodded to Song Changming in a gesture of goodwill.

The blue-haired woman holding the bow showed little reaction, her expression even more indifferent.

Song Changming remained unmoved and did not immediately agree. He wanted to wait until his injuries had healed a bit more and also to allow himself to better adapt to the overwhelming gravity of heaven and earth.

In this way, even if he encounters danger again, he will have the ability to protect himself.

Before this, he didn't want to trust these three strangers too much.

The man noticed Song Changming's wariness and offered a few more words of reassurance. He then pointed to the distant horizon where the ice bird had disappeared, indicating the danger and that the ice bird could return at any time, making it unsafe to stay there.

After hearing this, Song Changming put away his long sword and agreed to leave with the three of them.

At this moment, the distant cold mist returned, and many ice birds approached this place.

Before the birds even arrived, frost had already frozen the surrounding rock walls and mountains, and was rapidly spreading toward where the group was.

Upon seeing this, the man and the two women's expressions changed, as if they were quite wary of the arriving ice birds.

The man pulled out his iron folding fan, unfolded it, and flicked it forward.

The folding fan expanded to a size of five meters in the wind, hovering around their feet.

A man and two women jumped onto the folding fan. The man said something to Song Changming, probably urging him to jump on as well.

Since Song Changming had already made his decision, he didn't delay and jumped onto the enlarged iron folding fan.

As the frost and mist approached, the folding fan suddenly transformed into a beam of white light, shooting into the distance and disappearing without a trace in the valley in the blink of an eye.

A few breaths later, the flock of icebirds arrived and circled around the spot a few times.

Several figures could be vaguely seen standing on some of the ice birds, shrouded in cold mist, gazing in the direction the folding fan had left, no longer pursuing.

This rift valley is quite long and deep; it seems to stretch on for a long time without end. Moreover, there are several branching rifts in the middle of the valley, extending in different directions.

The folding fan eventually circled around to one of the forks in the road and stopped in a relatively open area.

Song Changming glanced at the place and didn't find anything unusual.

It wasn't until he noticed the honeycomb-like caves on the rock walls on both sides that he realized they were all man-made.

Perhaps due to the commotion of the returning group, more figures emerged from several caves, peering into the valley.

Many divine senses also swept over Song Changming and his group, and after confirming their arrival, they hastily dispersed.

Song Changming jumped down from the folding fan and stood silently to the side, watching the man who had brought him there talking to several figures who had come out of the cave.

As for the content of the conversation, he only noticed that those people kept glancing at him, most likely talking about him.

Song Changming hadn't expected to encounter so many humans here at once.

However, he also realized that these people might be different from him and not from Kyushu.

Before long, an old man with a white beard stepped out from the crowd. The old man faced Song Changming, looked him up and down, and focused on Song Changming's appearance and clothing.

Then he communicated with Song Changming in several different languages, but without exception, they were all languages ​​that Song Changming had never heard of.

Seeing this, the old man shook his head at the man with the iron fan who had brought Song Changming.

The language barrier was indeed a problem, which meant that it wouldn't be easy for Song Changming to communicate with them and understand the situation here.

Fortunately, this group of people were not xenophobic. For whatever reason, they accepted Song Changming, who had suddenly arrived.

The man with the iron fan personally led Song Changming to a secluded mountain cave where they stayed temporarily. He also gave Song a stack of picture books specifically for learning the language they used to communicate.

No matter how you look at it, this guy seems like a good person.

Song Changming took the thick booklet and his first impression of the man in front of him was quite good.

He needed a relatively safe place to recover from his injuries, so he decided to stay in the cave temporarily.

In the following days, the man with the iron fan came to greet him every day. Thanks to his help, Song Changming mastered the new language very quickly.

In just a few days, he was able to have some brief exchanges with the other party, and basic communication was no longer an obstacle.

Through communication with the other party, Song Changming finally learned a lot of things.

First of all, this place is indeed the original continent without a doubt!

Like Song Changming, this group of people all came from different small worlds and arrived at this primordial continent.

Their goals are roughly the same: to seek immortality!

In order to seek immortality!
