Chapter 1005: Chapter 791: Relics Left by the Time and Space Ancestor?_3

"It’s nothing serious. I noticed that all of you have been here for a while, and I was wondering, what exactly is the situation?" Wang Zijia asked very straightforwardly.

The Old Skeleton Ghost was not at all surprised by this question, shaking his head, "We too want to know the situation. However, after sending a few disciples in, there has been no sign of them. We can only preliminarily conclude they are not dead, but none has come out either, and we don’t know anything beyond that."

Wang Zijia paused, then asked, "Has this place been expanding the whole time?"

The Bone Devil nodded, "When I first arrived, it spanned only a few miles in radius, now it has already expanded to several dozen miles. The reason why everyone is still holding back is that we want to wait and see whether the expansion will stop and if there will be any other changes afterward."

"..."

The two talked back and forth for a while, with Wang Zijia asking some questions.

Since Wang Zijia’s questions were very basic, things that could be observed in just a moment, the Old Skeleton Ghost was quite straightforward, not concealing anything at all.

It was like he wanted to form a good connection with Wang Zijia.

Seeing this, the other two groups of people frowned deeply, huddling closer together, hinting at a potential alliance.

Wang Zijia was unconcerned, his whole attention focused on the slowly expanding light screen before him.

No, to say it was expanding was not quite accurate.

The range of the hemispherical light shield indeed was growing, but it wasn’t swallowing the surrounding ruins; it was as if the area inside the light orb itself was expanding.

It wasn’t only the ground that was expanding since there were no earthquakes occurring nor was the land being pushed out. Instead, the entire space covered by the shield was continuously expanding.

In this process, that spatial wave became more intense, and the faint ripples of time also grew stronger.

Amidst this mix, the familiar feeling of space-time intertwining became increasingly clear to Wang Zijia.

But beyond that, Wang Zijia had no other discoveries.

He waited with a furrowed brow for nearly half an hour, and several more groups arrived.

Among them, Demon Lords of the God Monarch Realm took a distant look and, after discovering the situation, turned and fled without looking back.

The Celestial and Earth Immortals, some fled, some hesitated for a moment, and drifted towards a corner where a motley crowd was gathering. Wang Zijia and the four groups paid no heed.

Only one group was an exception.

Upon discovering the situation here, a Demon Lord of the Earth Immortal rank did not rush forward, nor did he leave. Instead, he withdrew a short distance and, after waiting a while, he approached under the leadership of another Demon Lord of Profound Immortal rank.

They became the fifth party!

After exchanging brief greetings with the other two Great Demon Heads of Profound Immortal rank, he floated over to where Wang Zijia and the Bone Devil stood and paid respects, "Greetings to Fellow Daoist Bone Devil!"

Without much emotion, the Bone Devil glanced at the other party, responding, "Fellow Daoist Ghost Gu, you are too kind!"

After greeting, Ghost Gu then turned his attention to Wang Zijia, who was not far off, and asked, "Forgive my poor sight, but may I know who this fellow daoist is?"

The Bone Devil did not speak but also turned his gaze towards Wang Zijia.

"Just a mountain dweller about to be buried, lacking the great divine powers of Fellow Daoist. It’s quite normal for you not to recognize me!" Wang Zijia replied indifferently.

However, in his heart, he took this person somewhat seriously, or rather, with a bit of wariness.

Among the four surrounding Profound Immortals, this person posed the greatest threat to him.

While he had no fear of being unable to defeat the others, escaping was no problem, and he was not afraid of any underhanded tactics from them.

It was only with this person that once entangled, Wang Zijia wasn’t completely confident in his ability to escape.

Ghost Gu, whose real name was She Shaolong, was at the peak stage of Profound Immortal cultivation and a well-known Big Shot from West Qiang.

He was one of the leaders of the Sky Blood Gu Sect, one of the four great Demon Sects of West Qiang.

A classic Ancient Cultivator of the Demon Path and a representative member of demonic and evil cultivators, a super Gu Dao Demon Lord.

Remarkable in background and powerful in cultivation, coupled with his Dao Charm posing a slight restraint to Wang Zijia, he was someone Wang Zijia was somewhat wary of, unwilling to become entangled with.

She Shaolong, seeing Wang Zijia’s attitude, did not persist.

After a respectful greeting, acknowledging each other, he moved aside to a vacant place, forming another separate group, and then began to send disciples to probe.

During this process, the other families also did not stop trying.

Especially after seeing She Shaolong arrive, they became evidently more anxious. After all, this guy’s arrival meant that the situation here had attracted the attention of some people from the four great Demon Sects.

While Sanctified Cultivators above golden immortal level seldom appear, even if a few more Profound Immortals came, if there was any treasure, there wouldn’t be much for them to share.

Nevertheless, no matter what means everyone used, it was all met with silence.

...

Wang Zijia wasn’t idle either. Although he didn’t send disciples into the fray, he had better methods.

Flipping his hand, he summoned several beasts, which twisted their flesh and blood into avatars of Wang Zijia and entered the area.

But all contact was lost; he couldn’t reach them.

This caused Wang Zijia to frown.

After trying for a while, exhausting all methods without any result,

It had been many years since he encountered a situation like this. It seemed he had only experienced it once before.

In Qinglian World, the strange buildings within the Forbidden Area... it was just like this, where one could seemingly enter freely, and the different space was right in front of them, but despite exhausting all methods, there was no clue to be found.

Hmm?

Wait!

The Forbidden Area of Qinglian World’s strange buildings existed because a part of Ling Jingzi’s body was there, causing the place to imbibe a breath of the great Daluo’s crumbling Dao Charm upon death—a terrifying place created in such a manner.

So this place... was also born of a Daluo?

And this area was clearly marked by space-time anomalies, rich with the essence of space-time. Could it be...

The Northern Cold Sovereign, Time and Space Ancestor?

At this moment, Wang Zijia’s mind flashed with insight, and various pieces of information scrolled through his thoughts.

If this were true, then the odd ruins from different eras that he encountered earlier also seemed to make sense?

Yes!

At this moment, Wang Zijia felt like he had found the breakthrough—everything linked up, chaotic threads of data connected, and confusion turned to clarity!

This also caused a flash of brilliance in Wang Zijia’s eyes. Looking at the continuously expanding hemispherical light shield before him, he felt a surge of excitement.

...
