The Legend of the Great Desolation: I Am the Fortress

In the pure void.

A black airship appeared in this area for the first time.

There was no other energy in this void.

Without the shroud of the origin of time, without the shroud of the origin of space, even the power of any kind of cosmic origin was suppressed and could not get close.

"arrive."

Lei Zhan stood on the deck of the airship, his expression calm, but his heart was filled with inexplicable thoughts.

Traveling from the edge of the Great Mo Domain towards the area where the Three Realms are located, Lei Zhan controlled the Sky One Heart Boat, passing through one dangerous place after another.

After traveling for a long time in the chaotic darkness, Lei Zhan was able to clearly perceive that special area deep within the vast chaos and darkness.

The blue-and-white porcelain imprint resonates with something far away, and even the blue-and-white porcelain space within the body is resonating in that area.

Lei Zhan followed this resonance and successfully arrived at this pure void.

“Master, this…” Daoist Yifeng and Daoist Wuming both looked ahead, their hearts filled with shock.

Before me lay a pure void, so pure that not a single impurity remained, even the primordial energy of the universe had receded.

But looking at this pure void, they both felt a chill and fear that came from their very souls.

Yifeng Daojun and the other two had a feeling that if they trespassed, they would face certain death.

"Wingwind, Mist Howl, you two wait here and don't come any closer." Lei Zhan withdrew his gaze and turned to his two followers, instructing them.

“Master…” Wuming Daojun said in a deep voice, “I can no longer sense the primal power that exists in the universe here. If the primal power of the universe can be suppressed, this place is probably no ordinary dangerous place. We must not enter rashly.”

“Master,” Daoist Yifeng also spoke up, “this place is far too abnormal. If you insist on entering to investigate, I am willing to enter this dangerous place in your place.”

"You're going?" Lei Zhan looked at Yi Feng Daojun and shook his head, saying, "You two are already quite strong among the Daojun of Life and Death, but even I have to be careful in this dangerous place. It's too dangerous for you to go in."

“This… is.” Daoist Wuming and Daoist Yifeng exchanged glances, but were quite helpless.

……

call.

Lei Zhan strolled through this pure void, flying towards its depths.

An invisible force that attacks the soul and true spirit swept through the void, but before the powerful soul nurtured by the blue-and-white mist, it was nothing more than a gentle breeze.

"This outer edge of the void is probably just a screening process, filtering out those weaker cultivators." Lei Zhan sensed the all-pervasive, invisible power in the void, a thoughtful look appearing in his eyes.

“Some second-step Dao Lords with average strength can probably withstand these forces targeting the soul.”

Although Lei Zhan didn't know much about this area, he was quite clear about some of the most basic and key information.

This pure void is only the outermost layer; further into the core lies a vast void filled with golden mist.

"Deep within the golden mist, at its very core, lies the Blue and White Cave Mansion left behind by the Supreme Being Qi."

Lei Zhan muttered to himself, "However, there are also many Myriad Treasures and Golden Fiends in this golden mist. Whether you exchange them for treasures or sell them, they are all very valuable."

"The few natal divine weapons I just acquired need to be upgraded, and there are many treasures that need to be absorbed. No matter how many of these Myriad Treasures Golden Fiend appear, I will take them into my possession whenever I have the chance."

At a rapid pace, it soon plunged into the vast golden mist, following the resonance with the Blue Flower Cave, and continued its journey.

Time passed slowly.

"The cave dwelling left behind by the Supreme Being is truly a treasure trove. Even on the outer perimeter, one can easily find various rare and precious treasures." Lei Zhan was in high spirits as he weaved through the golden mist.

Having only traveled within this golden mist for a few days, the number of Myriad Treasures Golden Fiends that he had plundered had already reached nine, which would amount to at least several hundred million cubic meters of Chaos Spirit Liquid.

suddenly.

"Hmm?" Lei Zhan looked into the distance, his eyes lighting up again. "Another Myriad Treasures Golden Fiend has appeared!"

In the distance, a group of strange beasts were scattered and forming a circle around the center. And in the center of them was a golden bead with a slowly flowing surface.

At this moment, thirty or forty armored beasts were all prostrate, absorbing the power emanating from the golden beads.

They were of average intelligence, but they understood that absorbing the power emanating from the golden bead would make them stronger.

"Thirty or forty strange beasts, this group has quite a few." Lei Zhan smiled and immediately unleashed the Ultimate Time-Space Dao's Instant Shadow.

call.

The tower is hidden deep within the void dimension, constantly approaching.

Five million miles.

Three million miles.

One million miles.

With Lei Zhan's understanding of the ultimate spacetime path, he could easily approach the core of the beasts without disturbing the surrounding golden beasts, getting close to the Myriad Treasures Golden Fiend.

“The Myriad Treasures Golden Fiend.” Lei Zhan stood in front of the golden bead, stretched out his left hand, grabbed the Myriad Treasures Golden Fiend, and pulled it sharply.

Click click click~~~~~

Countless golden currents trembled around it, as if invisible ropes were connected to Wanbao Jinsha.

In an instant.

"Boom~~~"

The surrounding void exploded with a loud bang, and the golden mist around them surged wildly.

The Myriad Treasures Golden Fiend was immediately pulled into Lei Zhan's hand and then stored inside his cave world.

Just as Lei Zhan put away the Wanbao Golden Demon.

"Rumble~~~~"

Instantly, the endless golden mist around them began to surge and rush wildly in all directions.

Even during the surging process, it begins to thin out, or even disappears completely.

Soon, the area around the pile became incredibly pure, without a trace of golden mist.

"Roar~~~"

The group of strange beasts that were crawling and absorbing the power were stunned, but then they let out a roar, a piercing roar that tore through the void.

They were absorbing the energy within the Myriad Treasures Golden Demon perfectly well, but in the blink of an eye, the entire Myriad Treasures Golden Demon disappeared.

"Intruder!"

"Kill this intruder."

The largest of the beasts roared, and the other armored beasts locked onto Lei Zhan's aura, charging angrily toward him.

It was too fast; it all happened in an instant.

"Hmph!" Lei Zhan sneered. "You want to kill me?"

Bang!Bang!Bang!
Lei Zhan revealed himself to have three heads and six arms, wielding three Cheng Ying spears. With a sweeping motion of the spears, he easily blocked the siege of the strange beasts.

Before this, Lei Zhan had acquired nine Myriad Treasures Golden Fiends, each surrounded by a horde of golden beasts! At his peak, Lei Zhan encountered over a hundred beasts. And all those beasts were easily crushed by Lei Zhan.

Puff puff puff~~~
Beneath the spear, the principles of space and time were infinitely profound. With a gentle sweep, one after another, strange beasts were blasted to pieces, their internal organs shattered.

The spears, stacked high, were incredibly sharp. The ultimate spacetime portal, however, possessed unfathomable power.

"Roar~~~"

One after another, the strange beasts roared and charged towards Lei Zhan. Even though they tried their best to resist, all that awaited them was death.

"call."

Finally, the procession stopped, and the pure void around them was now filled with nothing but golden corpses.

"Save it." Lei Zhan took out a gourd and uncorked it.

Phew~~~
Immediately, all the armored beast corpses around were collected.

Don't be fooled by how easily these strange beasts died at Lei Zhan's hands; in reality, each of them was a force to be reckoned with.

The armor of these armored beasts is also very sturdy, so it can naturally be used as a material to forge some powerful magical artifacts.

"That's about it. I've swept through all the Myriad Treasures Golden Fiends within a trillion miles around. Even if there are any left, there probably won't be many."

Lei Zhan looked around and saw that the area within trillions of miles around, which was originally filled with golden mist, had now been transformed back into a pure void.

Only in the very distant distance could one vaguely see some golden mist.

"The resonance between the cave and the blue-and-white porcelain mark became even stronger."

Lei Zhan sensed the resonance emanating from the golden mist in the distance, and without hesitation, he flew swiftly towards the distance.

The strange beasts within a radius of trillions of miles around were all cleared away by the pile, leaving only a pure void as far as the eye could see.

At their rapid pace, they arrived at the majestic cave in the time it takes to drink a cup of tea.

"This cave dwelling..." Even though Lei Zhan was somewhat prepared, he was still incredibly shocked when he actually arrived at the Blue and White Flower Cave Dwelling.

It's too big. The cave in front of us is far too vast and too majestic.

The continuous courtyard walls, radiating a powerful aura, prevented Lei Zhan from having any other thoughts.

Lei Zhan's gaze immediately fell upon the swaying blue-and-white porcelain flower on the massive gate in the distance.

It is sacred and natural; even as the universe changes and time passes, only it remains eternally.

"call."

Lei Zhan took a deep breath and then stepped forward. He stood in front of the mansion gate and closed his eyes.

Wow~~~
An invisible force emanated from the swaying blue and white porcelain pattern, directly enveloping Lei Zhan's heart.

Instantly, the deepest pain and tenderness in my heart were directly pulled out.

"A test of one's Dao heart?" Lei Zhan laughed immediately, as all the scenes he had experienced in the past were brought up again, but Lei Zhan's heart was very calm.

Two hundred thousand years have passed in the land of origin, and the Dao heart that has been forged in those two hundred thousand years has become increasingly terrifying.

Boom~~~~

The strange, tree-root-like carvings on the gate seemed to sense the terrifying Dao Heart that had been gathered there, and automatically and with a rumbling sound, they opened.

“Logically speaking, I should have reached the third or fourth step level before coming here.” Lei Zhan’s gaze passed through the open gate of the mansion and he immediately saw the three treasure trees that covered a vast area of ​​hundreds of millions of miles.

"However, if I really reach the third level, it will be a bit too late," Lei Zhan muttered to himself. "I wonder how far I can go this time."

"However, if we can see the many techniques and secret arts within the cave, then everyone will be very happy."

As for the path beyond the Origin Heart Scripture, without the guidance of the Heart Sword Technique, relying solely on one's own efforts to comprehend and explore it, it's uncertain how long it will take.

However, the Azure Flower Cave of the Supreme Being contains a vast number of magical techniques and secret arts... This is one of the reasons why Lei Zhan wanted to venture into the Azure Flower Cave.

After all, it is extremely difficult to create a secret technique that can completely rival the Heart Sword Technique.

Countless years have passed, and there is only one Heart Sword Emperor in the entire Flame Dragon Domain.

Most importantly, and what attracts the most to the competition, are the Dao left behind by the other Dao Lords of Life and Death who have walked the ultimate path and remain in the Supreme Cave.

"Before passing the test left by the Supreme Being, we can't let these fruits go to waste." A smile appeared in Lei Zhan's eyes, and he instantly transformed into a golden stream of light, walking to the front of the trees.

Each tree is an extremely precious treasure in the endless territory, and even the fruits it bears are rare treasures that even the Eternal Emperors covet.

They approached the tree one by one and picked the fruit from it.

"Unfortunately, only one fruit can be picked from a tree."

Lei Zhan looked up at the entire sacred tree and the fruits hanging on it. Although he was extremely envious, he could only leave helplessly.

The sacred tree is imbued with a spirit; only one fruit can be picked from each tree—this is an ironclad rule!

Wanting more, even just one more leaf, is impossible. Unless Lei Zhan possesses the power to overwhelm the entire cave.

After collecting the fruits, they continued their exploration.

Soon, a beautiful arched bridge came into view, with a wide river flowing beneath it.

The water was clear, yet it exuded a chill, with a faint white mist rising and falling on its surface.

As Lei Zhan walked on the beautiful arched bridge, he immediately saw two old men sitting opposite each other on the grass in the distance, playing chess with a chessboard and pieces in front of them.

“These two old men should both possess the strength of an Eternal Emperor, at most comparable to a top-tier Emperor like the Three Silkworm Emperor…” Lei Zhan’s gaze fell on the two old men.

The two old men were dressed exactly the same, both wearing gray robes, and they both turned to look in the direction of the arched bridge.

"Hmm? This little guy who broke in is only a third-step Dao Lord?"

One of the gray-robed elders had blood-red eyes. His gaze was fixed on Lei Zhan, as if an endless sea of ​​blood and slaughter was engulfing Lei Zhan!

The endless resentment and murderous intent made Lei Zhan take notice.

“A Dao Lord at the Third Step, it’s quite impressive that you’ve made it this far.” Another emperor with silver eyes smiled. “It’s been a long time since we’ve seen an outsider come here.”

"Hmph! A mere Third-Step Dao Lord, easily crushed." The blood-eyed, gray-robed emperor sneered as he flicked his sleeve.

Boom~~~~

The large sleeves swept across the heavens and earth, instantly traversing the void at a speed exceeding a hundred times the speed of light, and arrived in front of Lei Zhan in an instant, completely enveloping him.

"Break!" Lei Zhan remained calm and waved his hand.

"Boom~~~"

Lei Zhan's slap, though seemingly casual, carried the domineering power of the ultimate spacetime annihilation, along with the powerful boost to his strength from the Origin Heart Scripture.

The old man with blood-red eyes and a gray robe attacked with absolute dominance, and the two collided instantly.

Upon this collision, the previously nonchalant old man with blood-red eyes and a gray robe suddenly changed his expression.
