“Greetings, Senior.”

In the public area of the gathering, Jiang Hao sat cross-legged on the floor.

At that moment, Zhang’s condition had worsened.

She had almost lost her entire consciousness. She was silent.

Jiang Hao had a feeling that once she was completely taken over by her inner demon, she would be unable to enter the gathering.

It wasn’t just Zhang. Something was strange with Gui too.

However, Zhang and Gui were the opposite.

Xing and Liu were also surprised.

Lately, everyone seemed less hopeful about their situation.

Dan Yuan looked at everyone and smiled. “It seems everyone has been living quite an interesting life. Are there any issues in your cultivation?”

Zhang seemed unable to speak, but Gui and the others had no problem.

Everyone had reached a new realm, sorted out their own situations, and only lacked an opportunity to go beyond.

Jiang Hao had a feeling that everyone had something going on in their lives.

Liu had successfully advanced, Xing was one step away from an opportunity, and Gui was only a bit slow.

As for himself, he dared not show any signs of improvement and could only let them continue to guess.

Senior Dan Yuan had no clue either.

“Then, let me explain the Dao Intent to Zhang once again,” Dan Yuan said.

After that, he began to explain it to Zhang. Jiang Hao was eager to listen, but he couldn’t understand it properly.

Xing nodded occasionally, while Liu was deep in thought.

Gui lagged behind a bit.

It showed the differences in their comprehension of Dao Intent.

But it didn’t mean one was stronger or weaker than the other.

It was the strength of one’s mind that couldn’t be measured by just one thing.

He remained quiet so as to not reveal his abilities.

He rather preferred to keep them guessing about him. After a long time, Zhang gradually woke up from her daze.

“Thank you, Senior,” Zhang said gratefully.

“No need to thank me. Zhang, you have an extraordinary temperament and should be able to overcome this trial. It’s just that you’ve encountered some trouble right now,” Dan Yuan said.

“It’s The End of All Things trying to distract me,” said Zhang.

“Have they already started?” Bi Zhu asked in surprise. She was in the West, so she couldn’t get all the information.

Thankfully, there weren’t any big issues.

Who would have thought that everything would start with Zhang?

“If The End of All Things is getting involved, they might have planned it a long time ago,” said Xing. He turned to Gui. “Be careful. The person that gives you information might also be involved with them.”

“That’s right. The best way to communicate with these people is to take the ident.i.ty of someone from The End of All Things, said Liu.

Gui nodded. She was unfamiliar with the western region.

She had been confident before. But now, she doubted herself.

“The End of All Things not only wants to destroy the world but also covets all powerful things. They won’t give up on things that can make history,” said Dan Yuan. “There may be Sage’s Page in the West, which The End of All Things will try to obtain.”

Jiang Hao understood. The ancient pages might have information on how to destroy the world or save it. Regardless, The End of All Things needed them desperately.

They could destroy the world themselves. If there was a way to save it, they would nip it in the bud.

“Do you have more information about the pages?” Dan Yuan asked.

“According to Shang An, the ancient pages should be in the west. He felt something and looked toward the west, where there was a light.” Xing thought for a moment. “Shang An also mentioned a place called Jianxin Cliff. I checked the maps, but I couldn’t find this place.”

“I haven’t heard of it either,” Gui said. “I’ve been to many places in the West, but I haven’t heard of this place.”

Dan Yuan turned to Zhang. “Zhang, have you heard of it?”

Everyone looked at her. After a moment of silence, she said, “Jianxin Cliff? I was born there, but it was just an ordinary cliff. Perhaps it has collapsed by now.”

She then gave them an approximate location.

Dan Yuan nodded. He could try to verify it.

Naturally, rewards were due.

“Who knows the whereabouts of Old Man Corpse Sea?” Dan Yuan asked. The question was for Liu because he had mentioned Old Man Corpse Sea before.

“He left… For now, no one knows where he went,” Liu said.

“The awakening of the corpse is connected to him, right? He must be in the West as well,” said Gui.

She felt numb.

Wherever she went, there were problems.

The threats never seemed to end.

She had thought that the southern region was naturally unlucky. She now realized that luck had nothing to do with the South.

Perhaps she was the problem.

Dan Yuan looked at Jiang Hao. “Friend Jing, do you know where the corpse will wake up?”

“Sea Sky Forest,” Jiang Hao said in a low voice.

“Alright.” Dan Yuan nodded. Then he asked, “Is there anything you need?” Jiang Hao’s information was usually accurate, so he didn’t need to verify it.

After confirming it, rewards could be offered.

Sometimes, information from the others varied in accuracy. But it was impolite to imply that in front of everyone.

“I need information on the Holy Master of the Heavenly Saint Sect and his avatar,” said Jiang Hao.

He was still thinking about how to bring it up when Senior Dan Yuan asked him if he wanted anything.

“Alright.” Dan Yuan nodded.

Jiang Hao didn’t say anything more.

Senior Dan Yuan didn’t have any more tasks to a.s.sign.

At that point, Gui and the others also received the news that Sea Sky Forest was the target of The End of All Things.

There would be problems there.

Moreover, it seemed that the Heavenly Saint Sect was about to take action, or else Jing wouldn’t suddenly pay attention to the Holy Master.

Gui keenly felt that just by listening to the people in the gathering, she could learn a lot of things.

Then came the trading session.

This time, no one had much to trade. So, they talked about recent developments.

“What if a person’s luck suddenly changes?” Gui asked.

“Gui’s luck is like a blazing fire, but it has been suppressed. There is no problem for now, but the origin needs to be found soon,” Dan Yuan said.

Gui was surprised.

It seemed those three people had actually helped her.

“A senior said it might be related to the Ancient and Modern Book,” Gui said. Dan Yuan shook his head. “Without seeing that book, I can’t be sure. However, that might be just one reason. More importantly, you must have encountered something on the way…”

“Encountered something?” Gui was puzzled. “I haven’t come across anything recently.”

She paused for a while. “What do you mean, Senior?”

This involved a transaction, and something was to be offered in exchange.

“Gui, are you in the West right now?” Dan Yuan asked.

“Yes.” Gui nodded.

“Near the academy, there is an ancient city. In the city, on one of the streets, there is a noodle shop. Look for the owner. He might be able to help you,” Dan Yuan said.

Gui was overjoyed. There was a way to know more about her present situation, after all.

These days, she lived in constant fear.

It seemed safer in the southern region. She decided not to wander away from home anymore.

If everything turned out fine this time, she would go and meet her two

brothers..
