That day, in the evening.
Prime Emperor Taixu came to the cultivation field as usual and stared at the Divine Gathering Shield for a while.
During the first two years of Sheng Xiao's seclusion, Prime Emperor Taixu would come here occasionally to take a look. However, as time passed, since there was no movement in the Divine Gathering Shield, Prime Emperor Taixu became more and more anxious, so he came every evening.
Today, the Divine Gathering Shield was still the same as before.
Prime Emperor Taixu noticed that the divine power released by the divine artifacts was getting weaker and weaker.
If Sheng Xiao had not broken through to the Divine Master Realm when the power of the divine artifact was exhausted, their plan would fail.
"Sigh." Prime Emperor Taixu couldn't help but sigh.
"Why are you sighing?" Song Ji suddenly appeared beside Prime Emperor Taixu.
ƥαṇdα- ηθνε|·ƈθm Prime Emperor Taixu turned around and looked at Song Ji, who had lived for thousands of years but was acting like a child now. He looked at Song Ji helplessly. "Mentor." Prime Emperor Taixu wanted to smile, but he couldn't bring himself to do so. Thus, he gave up on forcing a smile and asked Song Ji with a worried expression, "Mentor, will our Divine Master Creation Plan succeed?"
Song Ji was silent for a long time before saying, "I don't know either."
If Song Ji said that he didn't know, it meant that even he couldn't see the future of the three thousand worlds.
Taixu's mood suddenly became extremely heavy. "Mentor, I thought that at my age, I wouldn't be afraid of death. But now, I understand that I'm not afraid of death, but afraid that the world I live in and our kind will be exterminated."
"Mentor, can you imagine that scene? A second ago, this world was still filled with flowers and the human world was prosperous, but with a gust of wind, this world turned into nothingness…" As long as he thought about how Cang Lang Continent would instantly turn into nothingness, and from then on, Cang Lang Continent would no longer exist in the universe, Taixu felt a chill down his spine.
Upon hearing this, Song Ji recalled the era when the Divine Masters died one after another 18,000 years ago. At that time, the sky was always foggy and he had the feeling that he couldn't forsee tomorrow.
Now, that feeling appeared again.
"Enough." Song Ji interrupted Taixu, since he didn't want to hear these words that made people feel despair. "Follow me to a place."
"Mentor, where are we going?" Taixu wasn't angry. Instead, he hurriedly followed Song Ji out.
Song Ji said, "You'll know when we get there."
After the master and disciple left the inner academy on the unicorn boat, they went straight to the aeroplane transfer station towards Cang Lang City. Taixu went to register and collect his ticket. Seeing Song Ji sitting on the sofa and resting with his eyes closed, he finally couldn't hold it in anymore and asked curiously, "Mentor, why are we going to Yanhai City?"
Why were they suddenly going to that barren place?
Song Ji said, "The passageway to the Doomsday Battlefield is in Yanhai City."
"Of course I know…" Taixu immediately understood what Song Ji meant. "Mentor, you're saying that if we want to know how Sheng Xiao has been in seclusion for the past five years, we need to go to the Doomsday Battlefield to take a look?"
"Yes." Song Ji nodded.
"But the Doomsday Battlefield is a land abandoned by the Dragon Race's crown prince and has long been separated from him. According to what I know, Sheng Xiao has successfully comprehended a spatial seed that is independent of the three thousand worlds. Will he give up the seed that is under his absolute control and choose to continue refining the Doomsday Battlefield?"
Song Ji said, "If not for the situation, he would naturally be more willing to refine the spatial seed in this life. However, the Doomsday Battlefield is a demigod place, so it's definitely easier to cultivate than a brand new space seed. Sheng Xiao is compassionate, so I believe he will choose a shortcut."
Upon hearing Song Ji's words, Taixu lamented, "I hope so."
After more than three hours of flying, the mentor and disciple arrived at Yanhai City.
In the ancient era, Yanhai City was once the most prosperous city on the Cang Lang Continent and was where the Cang Lang Divine Master lived. However, with the death of Cang Lang Divine Master, Yanhai City, which had lost its protection, was gradually eliminated by the era. Because the environment of this land became more and more harsh, the soil lost its vitality, and the residents who stayed in the city could only move.
By now, the once glorious Yanhai City had already become a desolate city in the desert.
The ancient buildings had long been weathered. On the Gobi, only some broken walls and plants that were taller than giants could be seen. These plants were not ordinary plants, but plant-type demon beasts with powerful combat strength and killing intent.
But no matter what species it was, they were all quite slick.
However, when they sensed the powerful spiritual energy fluctuations in Song Ji and Taixu's bodies, they restrained their demonic power. Not to mention taking the initiative to attack them, they wished they could grow legs and escape quickly.
Song Ji and Taixu didn't take these small plant demon beasts seriously at all. The mentor and disciple passed through the endless Gobi desert and arrived at a black lake at the end of the desert. This lake was the entrance to the Doomsday Battlefield. In the past, every five years, the directors of the ten super Great Worlds and some Great World Administrations would open the entrance to the Doomsday Battlefield and teleport the young Beast Tamers in so that they could compete for the Ten Thousand Ranking List.
According to the rules, it should have been held four years ago. However, after the conspiracy of the Great Dao surfaced, the various factions were busy preparing for the Apocalypse Battle. The battle for the Ten Thousand Ranking List of the Doomsday Battlefield was suspended.
Now, the Doomsday Battlefield had been suspended for nine years already.
The last time it opened was during Yu Huang's batch.
Only a powerful Prime Emperor could open the Doomsday Battlefield. Taixu's cultivation level had regressed to the Prime Master Realm, so he no longer had this ability. After Song Ji made Taixu take a few steps back, he turned into a pink peach and floated above the black lake. Then, he used his spiritual energy to open a narrow passageway.
At the end of the passageway, there was darkness.
"Come in!"
Taixu entered the passageway without hesitation.
Taixu didn't hesitate and entered the passageway first.
There were mountains and rivers in the Doomsday Battlefield, next to the desert, the sea, and the sea of flowers, but there were no intelligent creatures.
After successfully entering the Doomsday Battlefield, Song Ji lowered his head and looked down. Then, he realized that there was a wide and boundless sea below them.
Song Ji raised his head and looked at the sky above him as he said, "It will be noon soon. At that time, the entire Doomsday Battlefield will become a frozen world. Taixu, follow me into the sea to see if there are living creatures in the sea!"
"Alright!"
The mentor and disciple plunged into the deep sea and used their spiritual energy to sense every move in the entire sea. However, they didn't sense the existence of any life form.
There wasn't a single fish or shrimp in this huge sea.
