Chapter 1015: 795

"Anyway, the scouting is complete; once my cultivation is sufficient, I can slowly plot my next moves!"

"But on my way out, I might as well try to collect more light spots to see if my eyes undergo any changes."

"How can I obtain a large number of these things, though?"

"A mass slaughter?"

"Forget it. Regardless of their circumstances, these people are definitely alive, and if I’m not careful, I could end up being hunted."

"..."

Wang Zijia pondered deeply for quite a while until some things gradually began to make sense.

Instead of acting immediately, he quietly blended into Wangdong City, disguising himself as an ordinary monk and getting to know the basic situation of the entire world.

This world was not divided into Five Domains, but the entire Shen Hong Realm was divided into many factions, each occupying their own territory.

The Alliance of Cultivators, formed by numerous Dao Consistencies, was considered the Righteous Path of this world, occupying the Central Divine Continent.

Zhang Bairren and Ling Jingzi’s power, the Devil Gate, occupied the West and South.

The two major Human Race factions had been at odds for years, a never-ending Immortal-Devil war constantly erupting.

Beyond that, there were mixed races like the Yao Ling Mountain Spirits residing in the East and North.

It could be said that this was a very prosperous Immortal World.

Moreover, the Alliance of Cultivators had actually achieved worldwide network coverage, and the Illusion Formation network of the entire world was exceptionally developed, even more so than the original Shen Hong Realm.

However, due to cultural reasons and the like, a brilliant entertainment industry had not developed. Instead, the network was merely used as a convenience for cultivation and communication within the Illusion Realm.

For several days in a row, Wang Zijia gained a general understanding of this different spacetime Shen Hong Realm and even obtained an ’ID card’ for himself!

During this process, Wang Zijia felt more and more that this world was filled with oddities.

For example, how could the great righteous-devil war possibly have been ongoing from the middle of the Second Epoch, ever since power structures were established, without ever stopping?

Another example, history was all sorts of wrong...

If one were to use the original Shen Hong as a reference, this world seemed like it was modeled after Shen Hong, but was artificially shaped around the personal will of one or several individuals.

Intervention, timeline revisions, twisting of characters’ grievances, and so forth...

Amidst patching and mending, a chaotic and collapsing hybrid of different spacetime Shen Hong Realm was created!

This further confirmed some of Wang Zijia’s suspicions and made him realize that now was not the time to explore this world.

Over those days, Wang Zijia had not found any way to leave this world, but he had found a way to possibly collect a large number of light spots without causing major incidents.

"..."

Today, after having gathered sufficient information, Wang Zijia quietly left Wangdong City and headed westward.

Although he had an identity and was not afraid of being discovered, Wang Zijia still kept himself hidden, observing as he traveled at a not-so-fast pace.

In addition to understanding this world, it was also exceedingly unfriendly to him.

Most of the Spiritual Mechanism Dao Charm that he absorbed into his body would collapse and dissipate.

As a result, not to mention cultivating, even replenishing the mana he had consumed required an immense amount of spiritual power. He had to rely on the little that remained for slow recovery.

Although he still had quite a few elixirs in his pocket, Wang Zijia was unsure how long he would stay in this world and naturally could not use them recklessly.

Therefore, Wang Zijia often hurried for half a day, then would find a place rich in spiritual power to rest and recover for the better part of the day.

After several days of traveling with intermittent stops, Wang Zijia managed to traverse much of the Central Immortal Domain, steadily approaching the southwest of Shen Hong Realm.

"..."

Today, after traveling for half the day and feeling that about one-fifth of his mana had been depleted, reaching the safety threshold he had set for himself, Wang Zijia stopped moving forward.

After all, with slow recovery, retaining four-fifths of his mana as backup was the prudent choice!

Wang Zijia quietly released his divine thought, sensing the surroundings for dozens of miles, and flew toward a place abundant with Spirit Mechanism.

However, before Wang Zijia could get close to his destination, he paused in his movement.

His senses told him that the spiritual power around him was rapidly converging towards a hidden valley, and Wang Zijia felt that at the center of the convergence in the valley, there was something utterly out of place.

"Could it be that a treasure has emerged in such a desolate place?"

With a flicker of thought, Wang Zijia, without revealing his form, stealthily made his way toward the sensed location.

The closer he got to the valley, the stronger the feeling of incongruity became.

Around the entrance to the valley, an impromptu array had enveloped it.

Numerous monsters and wild beasts were instinctively drawn to this place, but low-level demon objects controlled by ghost beings slaughtered and devoured them, preventing any major commotion.

After checking the array and finding it to be a valuable item, it took Wang Zijia no small effort to sneak in without alerting anyone.

He quietly floated into the canyon, and after seeing the situation inside, Wang Zijia revealed an astonished expression.

"..."

All he saw was an ordinary canyon where the vegetation had been completely cleared, now barren.

A blood-red array flickered at the heart of the canyon.

At the center of the array, a middle-aged man covered in blood and with visible injuries was silently healing.

"Old Skeleton Ghost? It’s actually this guy. Looks like he’s had a pretty rough half month!"
