Wuji Taoist!

Ye Tianchen never expected to encounter Wuji Taoist in this western desert!

However, hearing Wuji Taoist’s words, her appearance here made sense because a Daoist like her practices Buddhist Law as well. Buddhism and Taoism are unified entities, difficult to separate. It’s perfectly normal for Wuji Taoist to come to this western desert seeking a Buddhist legacy or honing her skills!

In Ye Tianchen’s view, Wuji Taoist has some ”issues” with him, yet neither of them are petty or ruthless people. Even if there is competition, it will be fair, and there will be no scheming behind each other’s backs. Wuji Taoist isn’t such a person!

”The way you put it, there seems to be truth in that!” Ye Tianchen nodded and said.

”The Buddhist legacy has been present since the Martial Arts World emerged, enduring for millions of years; everyone knows this. It is the fearsome and mysterious aspect of the Buddhist legacy. The Buddhist legacy permeates the entire Martial Arts World, with followers in every corner. But where is the true source of the Buddhist legacy? No one knows!” Wuji Taoist said.

”Determining the origin of a legacy requires knowing where the Ancestor of that legacy appeared and preached. Did the Buddhist Emperor once appear in this western desert?” Ye Tianchen was startled by this thought and asked.

Wuji Taoist looked at Ye Tianchen, her eyes showing a hint of surprise. Then she smiled and said, ”It seems my master was right. You are an anomaly, a person impossible to judge by conventional wisdom, quickly thinking of such a point. You’re really smart!”

”Haha, you flatter me too much. I just deduced a bit of meaning from your words. Additionally, are you only here for the training?” Ye Tianchen smiled and asked Wuji Taoist.

”I hope to gain an opportunity to comprehend deeper Buddhist laws!” Wuji Taoist nodded.

”I also have two objectives. First, to enter the Barbaric Forbidden Land; second, to see just how powerful the Buddhist legacy in this western desert truly is!” Ye Tianchen said with a smile.

”Barbaric Forbidden Land, do you truly intend to go to such a place?” Wuji Taoist frowned and asked Ye Tianchen.

”I want to venture and see it for myself. Why? Do you know about this place?” Ye Tianchen asked, noticing Wuji Taoist’s expression.

Roar!

At this moment, the Poison Scorpion and Rattlesnake, engaged in fierce battle, suddenly charged toward Ye Tianchen. Wuji Taoist smiled and said, ”It’s hard to explain in a short time. You better deal with these two gigantic creatures first; then we can talk!”

”Alright!” Ye Tianchen nodded!

Bam!

Bam!

Two golden fist filaments. Ye Tianchen gave it his all this time, intending to finish the fight swiftly. Staying here would only waste time, and wasting time was synonymous with delaying Tian Boguang’s life, something Ye Tianchen was not willing to do!

Bang!

Bang!

Two muffled thuds. The giant Poison Scorpion and Rattlesnake didn’t expect Ye Tianchen’s full-force attack to be so formidable. They were blasted away by his fist filaments, landing dozens of meters away!

Swoosh!

Ye Tianchen suddenly appeared in front of Wuji Taoist, smiling, ”Now we can leave, right? You wouldn’t ask me to kill these giant creatures, would you?”

”I didn’t expect your strength to have grown so much. Let’s go!” Wuji Taoist frowned and replied.

Swoosh!

Swoosh!

Ye Tianchen and Wuji Taoist disappeared into the desert. When Ye Tianchen stopped with Wuji Taoist, he noticed there was actually a pavilion in the desert. Judging by the pavilion’s condition, it seemed to have been built a very long time ago, worn down by the passing ages, the wind, and sand erosion, becoming quite dilapidated. Nonetheless, it was at least a place to rest!

Swish!

Wuji Taoist waved her right hand, and all the dust on the two stone stools disappeared, then she smiled and said, ”Please sit!”

”Then I won’t be polite. You’re more familiar with this place than I am!” Ye Tianchen nodded and said.

”I only came here a few times with my master, this is my first time coming alone!” Wuji Taoist said.

”When I arrived here just now, I rushed all the way like the wind. I didn’t see any sign of the Barbaric Forbidden Land or the legendary Buddhist Sect’s legacy at all. Could the rumors be wrong?” Ye Tianchen asked, puzzled.

”The rumor is not wrong, it’s just that you haven’t found the right place. If I’m not mistaken, you must have used powerful Divine Thought to explore, and still found nothing, right?” Wuji Taoist asked with a smile.

”That’s right, what kind of place is this? How can we find the Barbaric Forbidden Land?” Ye Tianchen couldn’t help but ask directly.

Wuji Taoist glanced at Ye Tianchen, thought for a moment, and then said, ”The western part of the Song Mountain Ancient Martial World is connected to the western part of the Heavenly Mountain Ancient Martial World. It’s an extremely mysterious place where few martial artists venture. Many martial artists once sought fortune here but found nothing, other than vast deserts. They couldn’t find anything because they were searching in the wrong direction!”

”Searching in the wrong direction?” Ye Tianchen frowned, slightly puzzled.

”Look at the sun in the sky, have you noticed anything unusual?” Wuji Taoist asked Ye Tianchen, gazing at the sun.

Hearing Wuji Taoist’s words, Ye Tianchen also felt a bit confused. He hadn’t really noticed this matter, so he looked up at the sky. There, a scorching sun was constantly burning, emitting an extremely dazzling light, which made Ye Tianchen frown.

”Go out and take a look, do you notice the sun following you?” Wuji Taoist said.

Ye Tianchen walked out of the pavilion and when he turned to look at the sun, he discovered that it was indeed following him. He couldn’t help but be shocked and seemed to understand something, suddenly realizing, ”So that’s it!”

At this moment, Ye Tianchen understood why he could never find the Barbaric Forbidden Land. It’s because anyone, whether ordinary people or martial artists, upon entering this desert would lose their point of reference. Surrounded by endless sand, all is desert, losing a directional reference point. In such cases, the sun becomes the point of reference, but unexpectedly, the sun follows like a moving object. This is something no one anticipated, and it’s so bizarre!

”I never expected this sun to follow someone, no wonder!” Ye Tianchen couldn’t help but talk to himself.

When a person enters this desert, they lose their point of reference, because everywhere is endless sand. In such circumstances, the sun in the sky becomes the point of reference people naturally rely on, misleading them, preventing them from determining the most accurate direction!

”Now do you understand? I can tell you, the Buddhist Sect’s legacy in the western desert and the Barbaric Forbidden Land are both at the far west of this desert!” Wuji Taoist said.

”It seems that to reach the far west, we have to rely on our own judgment and keep moving westward, without looking up at this sun; otherwise, we’ll be misled again and lose our way!” Ye Tianchen thought for a moment and said.

”Yes, let’s go. I want to find the Buddhist Sect’s legacy in the west, and you want to find the Barbaric Forbidden Land, so it’s right on our way!” Wuji Taoist nodded.

”Okay!” Ye Tianchen also nodded, after all, Wuji Taoist helped him this time!

Whoosh!

Whoosh!

The two figures disappeared from the dilapidated pavilion, heading toward the far west. Along the way, Ye Tianchen and Wuji Taoist moved quickly, heading swiftly toward the desert’s far west, with the sun persistently following them. Ye Tianchen glanced up and couldn’t help but say, ”This sun is really strange, it seems to have a spirit of its own, guiding us down the wrong path!”

”This sun is said to be the corpse of a Golden Crow, a powerful being killed by the Buddhist Emperor. Its resentment didn’t dissipate after death, turning into this sun, endlessly reincarnating here, misleading others!” Wuji Taoist explained.

”So powerful? For the Buddhist Emperor to personally kill the Golden Crow, it must have been extremely strong!” Ye Tianchen frowned and said.

”Legend has it that this Golden Crow had reached the Half-step Emperor level, extremely powerful, sweeping the heavens. It battled the Buddhist Emperor for a day and a night before being defeated and killed. Yet, even in death, its resentment was heavy, its strength formidable, turning into a sun, making its body float in this desert, never disappearing!” Wuji Taoist said with surprise.

Bang!

All of a sudden, a huge figure appeared, a spider with wings, flying in from somewhere, immediately attacking them!

Crash!

A giant spider web shot toward Ye Tianchen and Wuji Taoist, moving quickly, as if to envelop them. Wuji Taoist promptly said:

”This is a Flying Sky Demon Spider, extremely poisonous, avoid being hit by it!” (To be continued. If you like this work, feel free to vote for it on Qidian (qidian.com). Your support is my greatest motivation. Mobile users, please visit m.qidian.com to read.)
