Does anyone actually Believes That My Master Is A Mortal?

Tianjian Continent.

On the outskirts of a dilapidated city.

Jin Yu led Chu Yuan to this place.

"Senior, inside this city dwells the last remaining portion of the Human Race,"

Jin Yu said, pointing at the worn and ancient city ahead.

"Is this the strange city you all were talking about? What's so strange about this city?"

Chu Yuan asked, raising an eyebrow.

In his eyes, the city was at most a bit rundown, its walls etched with many traces of the years.

Given the scale of this ancient city, it wasn't hard to see that it had once been a grand and massive city.

But that didn't seem to qualify as strange.

"Senior, do you see the flag at the very top of this city?"

Jin Yu pointed to the top of the city wall.

Upon hearing this,

Chu Yuan looked up.

As his gaze passed over, he saw an old flag fluttering above the decrepit city.

The flag was a dark red, as if dust had covered its original color.

Chu Yuan thought that if the dust were removed, the flag would probably be bright red.

On the flag, a strange character was written.

This character...

To be honest, Chu Yuan couldn't understand it.

It was a character he had never seen before.

"What about this flag?"

Chu Yuan asked with a raised eyebrow.

"You may not know, senior, but this flag repels all other races. Apart from the Human Race, other races that approach the city will be blocked and unable to get near,"

Jin Yu said with a wry smile.

"Is that so?"

Chu Yuan became curious.

He looked up again at the flag above him.

After thinking it over, he decided to go over and take a look.

Although he was now a soul body, he was originally a member of the Human Race, so he shouldn't be repelled.

Chu Yuan took a step forward and walked toward the decrepit city.

He hadn't walked more than a few steps

when suddenly, the ground beneath him shook violently.

Chu Yuan instantly floated up to avoid being knocked down.

Jin Yu wasn't so lucky.

The sudden tremor knocked him directly to the ground.

The tremor was momentary.

After a moment, it disappeared.

Seeing this,

Chu Yuan quickly descended to the ground and pulled Jin Yu to his feet.

"Are you all right?"

Chu Yuan sized Jin Yu up and down and asked.

"Thank you for your concern, senior, I'm fine,"

Jin Yu said repeatedly.

"That's good, what was that just now?"

Chu Yuan looked around, trying to figure out what had happened.

Such a sudden vibration surely couldn't mean that the continent itself had moved...

"No need to worry, senior. The situation just now was of no real consequence. It was simply the revival of a being from a very distant era that caused the continent to tremble briefly,"

Jin Yu seemed quite familiar with what had just transpired and didn't appear to be panicked at all.

"You know what it's about?"

Chu Yuan asked, raising an eyebrow.

A being from a very distant era revived, causing the continent to tremble?

What could that be?

Seeing Chu Yuan's puzzled look, Jin Yu felt no surprise and patiently explained the situation to Chu Yuan in detail.

After Chu Yuan had listened to everything,

he was momentarily taken aback.

A being from countless years ago had revived in this era.

Its revival was so earth-shaking that it might have struck Tianjian Continent, causing the ground to suddenly shake.

Chu Yuan caught the keywords.

From countless years ago...

Revival...

Struck Tianjian Continent...

Was Tianjian Continent this profound??

At most, he had just been bluffing, claiming himself to be the master of a Hidden Sect.

"Every now and then, beings from countless years ago come back to life here."

"The waters are a bit too deep, aren't they?"

Chu Yuan felt somewhat discouraged.

He didn't know if his invincible state would be able to protect him.

Maybe...

He should head back to Divinity Continent first?

"Jin Yu, do you have many like this here, the kind who were alive countless years ago and revive?"

Chu Yuan took a deep breath and asked.

He suddenly remembered.

This Jin Yu seemed very calm about it.

As if it was a normal occurrence to him.

Accustomed to such events?

Upon deeper thought, it was terrifying.

"Yes, senior, indeed there are many such beings here. For instance, the Old Ancestor of our Golden-winged Dapeng clan was resurrected, and we younger generations can also be considered to have been resurrected in this way. It's just that our resurrection didn't make much of a stir," Jin Yu explained again.

"You've been resurrected too? Don't tell me, all the monsters on this continent have been resurrected?"

Chu Yuan had a bold thought.

All the monsters he had seen along his journey had been resurrected from death?

This is too... too something.

"Correct, senior, what you say is true," Jin Yu nodded, confirming it.

Chu Yuan: "?"

It turns out you guys all have such big backgrounds?

And this continent, called Tianjian Continent, might as well be named the Land of the Dead.

Chu Yuan didn't have time to think more about it.

A voice suddenly echoed in his mind.

It was the voice of the system.

This voice made Chu Yuan discard all other thoughts.

He instinctively opened the system interface to take a look.

[Time until Sect Inspection: 3 days, 7 hours, 23 minutes, 32 seconds]

[Please prepare, host.]

Huh? There's a little over three days until the Sect Inspection?

So soon?

Chu Yuan was somewhat absent-minded.

He had been so focused on chasing the Evil God that he had completely lost track of time.

He had forgotten that the Sect Inspection was drawing close.

Right now, it seems impossible to leave this continent; he needed to find a place to prepare for the Sect Inspection.

To make some preparations for advancing through the realms.

To disciple a failure, to advance a major Realm.

This time, he could at least advance through three major Realms and return to Mortal Realm!

"Jin Yu, do you know of any quiet places nearby? I have some insights into my cultivation and am planning to make a breakthrough,"

said Chu Yuan as he looked at Jin Yu.

"A quiet place? Senior, we're not far from the ancestral land of our Golden-winged Dapeng clan. How about I take you there?" Jin Yu offered.

"That works."

Chu Yuan didn't give it much thought and nodded in agreement.

Hearing this,

Jin Yu looked up in the direction of the city, then turned and started walking towards the direction of his clan's ancestral land.

"Can we not just fly there?"

Seeing Jin Yu intending to walk, Chu Yuan couldn't help but speak up.

"Senior, let's forget about it... I think walking is quite nice."

"Which direction is your ancestral land in?"

"To the south..."

"Let's go!"

"No! Don't!"

Chu Yuan didn't care about Jin Yu's objection, grabbed Jin Yu, and soared into the sky, flying in the southern direction.

Meanwhile,

In the direction offshore of Tianjian Continent,

Waves of ancient monster energy were surging towards the sky.

Boom!!

Accompanying the rise of ancient monster energy were violent winds and torrential rains.

A strange creature with the head of a dragon, the body of a human, and the claws of a bird emerged amidst the storm...
