"Boss, this bastard really doesn’t know, you..." Hu Gao was stunned. He indeed hadn’t thought of really killing Bai Song, destroying both his spirit and form. After all, Bai Song’s grandfather, Bai Yanwu, is the strongest among loose cultivators, even stronger than Hu Gao’s grandfather, Hu Le. If Bai Song were really killed, Bai Yanwu would definitely not let it go, and then his grandfather would definitely have big trouble. Hu Gao was worried for his grandfather.

Hu Gao and Hu Le, this pair of grandfather and grandson, although famous oddballs in the Ancient Martial World, are also notoriously untouchable oddballs. They laugh and curse, carefree and heartless, yet this grandfather and grandson have depended on each other since they were young, with a very deep bond. That kind of companionship and mutual dependence that goes beyond the limits of life is indescribable.

"He can live if he knows, but he must die if he doesn’t. Why would we carry around the head of some useless person? What’s the point?"

As he spoke, Ye Tianchen slowly advanced the tip of the Taie Sword forward, and a trickle of blood emerged from Bai Song’s forehead. This was to destroy Bai Song’s spirit and form, letting him slowly experience the fear of watching his own soul scatter.

"Ah..." Bai Song screamed, his face filled with extreme fear. The feeling of impending death, of spirit and form being destroyed and never to be reborn, was truly terrifying, worse than death itself.

"Goodbye, Eldest Young Master Bai, who knows nothing," Ye Tianchen said with a smile as he looked at Bai Song.

"No, no, don’t kill me, I’ll talk, isn’t that enough?" Bai Song finally completely broke down, his psychological defenses could no longer hold. In front of Ye Tianchen, it was impossible for him to hide anything, after all, life only happens once and martial artists are no exception. Once dead, nothing remains.

Ye Tianchen withdrew the Taie Sword and struck Bai Song’s forehead with Martial Arts True Power to seal the wound. Otherwise, the essence energy in his head would swiftly drain away, and even if Ye Tianchen hadn’t killed Bai Song, he would have been destroyed in spirit and form anyway.

"Speak, what is your grandfather looking for on behalf of the Blood Killing Organization?" Ye Tianchen asked calmly.

"I, I’m really not sure, but once I accidentally overheard my grandfather talking to a black-robed person. It seemed to mention the Ancient Transmission Array," Bai Song said with some confusion.

"The fragments of the Ancient Transmission Array?" Hu Gao hurriedly asked.

"It seems so... but the Ancient Transmission Array was destroyed nearly ten thousand years ago. The fragments turned into three pieces, and they might have turned to dust by now. How could anyone find them? Wanting to leave Earth and enter this Martial Arts Great World is just wishful thinking, impossible!" Bai Song shook his head, exasperated.

Slap!

Hu Gao slapped Bai Song’s face again, as if scolding his grandson, "What the hell do you know? I raised you with such effort, yet you’re so hopeless? The Ancient Transmission Array is indestructible, even if destroyed, it can’t turn to dust. As long as the three pieces are found, there’s hope to reassemble the Transmission Array, and thereby leave Earth to enter the Martial Arts Great World, fool. I’m so ashamed to be your ’grandfather’, and you’re not fit to be my ’grandson.’

Bai Song, hearing Hu Gao’s words and seeing his despicable expression, was seething with rage. Even though he was now just a head and unable to use any divine arts or Absolute Skill, he still wished to bite Hu Gao to death. This guy was completely unreliable, and yet dared to act as his ’grandfather,’ wasn’t that just scolding the both of them?

"Alright, alright, I won’t argue with a ’grandson’ like you," Hu Gao said, feigning impatience.

Ye Tianchen stood nearby, listening to Bai Song’s words, and it indeed did not surprise him. The item Blood Killing Organization had Bai Yanwu help them find was indeed the fragments of the Ancient Transmission Array. Everyone knows Earth is no longer suitable for cultivation, and the range of the Ancient Martial World is gradually shrinking. When one day the Ancient Martial World even lacks thin spiritual energy, then Earth will no longer see new martial artists. Existing martial artists will gradually pass away one by one. At that time, Earth will have no cultivators left, truly trapped in the cycle of birth, aging, sickness, and death, with no one capable of defying fate.

Therefore, the only way is to reassemble the ancient transmission array to leave Earth. The stronger the person or the longer-lasting the great power, the more they will think of this point. The ancient transmission array has been destroyed for nearly ten thousand years, and the information passed down is that it was broken into three pieces. Ye Tianchen has one piece, which he, Tianshuang’er, and Dongfang Meng brought out alive from the Sun Never Sets Mountain; that was the most dangerous time, and the power inside was simply irresistible. This counts as the second transmission array fragment.

The first transmission array fragment, according to Tianshuang’er’s master, also the grandmaster of the Heavenly Number Mysterious Sect, "Divine Calculation" calculated, was stolen when the Blood Killing Organization assassinated Senior Qing Song, who was already near the stage of seated death, using despicable means. As for the whereabouts of the third transmission array fragment, it is unknown. It’s believed that the Blood Killing Organization is looking for the third fragment of the ancient transmission array.

After the seated death of Divine Calculation, Ye Tianchen immediately had Tianshuang’er do a divination for the third transmission array fragment, but there were no clues at all. Ye Tianchen certainly doesn’t want the Blood Killing Organization to obtain the third transmission array fragment. Currently, it can be said that both he and the Blood Killing Organization each have one piece of the ancient transmission array fragment, and whoever gets the third piece may gain the upper hand. It must be known that all martial artists in the Earth’s ancient martial world, regardless of their strong or weak cultivation, cannot escape the fate of seated death. The only way to continue living is to improve their cultivation realm and find life-extending immortal elixirs. On Earth, both possibilities are zero, leaving only one way out: to leave Earth through the ancient transmission array and enter the martial arts great world or other cultivation immortal domains to continue living. In other words, whoever controls the three fragments of the ancient transmission array controls the fate of all cultivators on Earth.

Bang!

Suddenly, with a thunderous noise, the mountains shook and the ground quaked. Ye Tianchen and Hu Gao could barely stand steady. The sound came from ahead, almost as if the sky were collapsing, shocking both Ye Tianchen and Hu Gao.

"What’s going on? It sounds like a volcanic eruption, such powerful forces!" Ye Tianchen couldn’t help but express his surprise.

"A volcanic eruption? Fire Head Hill, haha, boss, we’re about to hit the jackpot, such luck, such opportunity!" Hu Gao suddenly laughed loudly and shouted.

"Huh? What do you mean?" Ye Tianchen looked at Hu Gao and asked, puzzled.

Now, Ye Tianchen is facing the pursuit from several powerful factions and has even offended the top loose cultivator Bai Yanwu, so danger lurks everywhere; what luck can there be?

"Could it be that the Martial Saint Tomb has cracked open? Impossible, it’s impossible..." Bai Song exclaimed in shock.

"Martial Saint Tomb?" Ye Tianchen frowned and asked.

Hu Gao was already so happy that he was jumping with joy. At that moment, he summoned the Jade Rope to bind Bai Song’s head and stored it within his own body, then said excitedly, "Boss, let’s charge eastwards, and I’ll explain on the way, or we might be too late and others might beat us to it!"

Ye Tianchen saw Hu Gao already using all his strength to perform the Skywalking Step and swooped forward. After being momentarily stunned, he also used the Divine Movement Skill to catch up. The two went side by side, pushing their speed to the limit, with Hu Gao excitedly telling Ye Tianchen about the Martial Saint Tomb along the way, leaving Ye Tianchen amazed.

It turns out that not far from this river, in the eastern direction, there is a place called Fire Head Hill, which rises as a small hill in the midst of a vast plain. Because this small hill is entirely red, from a distance, it looks as if it is burning in flames, so it’s named Fire Head Hill.

About ten years ago, some people saw anomalies flying out from Fire Head Hill, as if some immortal birds were residing inside, constantly rushing out, which startled some experts to go observe. They actually found that this Fire Head Hill is the tomb of a Martial Saint Peak expert. No one knows how many thousands of years of evolution it has undergone, and the guard formation gradually relaxed. The inheritance of this Martial Saint Peak expert is about to reappear, making countless hearts stir. One must know, this Martial Saint Peak expert’s tomb might be tens of thousands of years old, possibly tracing back to the ancient era of Earth. Gaining his inheritance might greatly increase one’s cultivation, obtaining Martial Saint treasures, powerful cultivation skills, and even ancient life-extending immortal scriptures, so how can it not be enticing?

However, when some experts wanted to forcefully attack it, they discovered that the tomb of this Martial Saint expert is defended with immense power. Attacking it personally would only destroy it and result in backlash. Even Bei Lengshi and Du Tianqi went there back then and returned empty-handed. Some predicted that in twenty years, this Martial Saint’s tomb would open on its own, and at that time, the inheritance inside would reappear. No one expected that only ten years would pass, and this Martial Saint Tomb has already opened. Ye Tianchen and Hu Gao are only about a hundred miles away from Fire Head Hill, a mere blink of an eye for martial artists, so how can they not go take a look?

"What an incredible Martial Saint Tomb. I don’t seek the inheritance treasures inside, I just want to take a look and learn more about Earth’s ancient secrets. I have always felt that Earth was far from as simple as we imagine it to be." Ye Tianchen said seriously.

"Boss, if there’s an opportunity for an easy win, we might as well take it. After all, we can’t just make the trip for nothing!" Hu Gao said with a mischievous chuckle. (To be continued.
