From the spirit of the first generation Nine Calamity Sword Master, Chu Yang understood that in the supreme ranks, there exists a clear boundary known as the 'boundary between immortal and mortal.'
Below this boundary is the mortal realm; above it is the immortal realm.
And this boundary is... supreme sixth rank!
Now, within the confines of this ban in the Black Blood Jungle, it is actually also a supreme sixth rank! Why is there such a coincidence?
If it is not a coincidence but an intentional arrangement, then why?
The more Chu Yang delved into these secrets, the more he felt that the Nine Heavens was truly shrouded in layers of incomprehensible fog. Beyond these layers of fog, there is only one truth!
Except for that powerful being who could fold the Nine Heavens, for over ninety thousand years, no one has been able to uncover this truth!
Chu Yang murmured, “A supreme sixth rank actually requires a supreme sixth rank!”
Wei Wuyan did not notice his expression, sighed, and said, “Indeed, only a supreme sixth rank can break through this kind of ban, and it is limited to his own breakthrough. Although the Nine Heavens is vast, how many supreme beings above fifth rank have there been throughout history? Moreover, those who reach such a cultivation level would hardly have any interest in the Black Blood Jungle. It is purely nonsense to say they would come specifically to break a ban…”
Chu Yang thought for a moment and couldn’t help but smile: who has so much free time to come and test whether their spirit power can break through this worthless ban?
Wei Wuyan said, “Thus, this is also why this place has been able to exist until now. Otherwise, the Black Blood Jungle would have been swept away by the nine great clans long ago… There are a dozen such places on the entire continent, exactly encircling the Ye Family in the center!”
“There are actually such strange places in the world,” Chu Yang frowned.
Wei Wuyan smiled lightly, revealing a hint of mockery on his ordinary face: “Yes, precisely because of the limitation of divine thought, the people here are all extremely bold. No matter who they face, they dare to draw their swords recklessly! Because they truly do not know, nor can they tell if they are facing a martial artist or a fifth rank supreme.”
Chu Yang chuckled: “Blindly attacking? If they really encountered a supreme being, wouldn’t it be like a group of ants recklessly attacking a herd of elephants? And they still have the confidence to win? How ironic!”
Wei Wuyan couldn’t help but laugh: “Exactly so.”
At that moment, before Wei Wuyan could finish, a strange cawing sound like a crow suddenly echoed, filled with eerie and sinister tones. As the sound arose, the surroundings seemed to be filled with a chilling atmosphere.
The laughter continued to echo, becoming increasingly unpleasant.
The three of them pretended not to hear it and continued on their way. Neither Chu Yang's self-control nor Wei Wuyan's cultivation level paid any mind to such petty tricks meant to induce fear.
Finally, the ominous voice rang out, laced with an indescribable mockery, saying in a strange tone, “Oh, where do these friends come from? So impressive, so fierce, so bold! Daring to gallop recklessly in this Black Blood Jungle, do you not think highly of your fellow travelers here?”
As this voice faded, a chorus of mocking laughter erupted ahead.
“From the looks of it, they resemble a few fledglings.”
“Caw caw caw… fledglings? He Lao San, do you want to have a taste again?”
“Hey, don’t blame me for being greedy; these three pigs look truly appetizing. Except for that stiff-faced one, the young man and that little girl are both tender and rosy. Just looking at them makes my mouth water…”
“Hahaha… that stiff-faced one must be quite chewy too… He Lao San, you consume human blood and flesh to supplement your essence; this time you must be able to have a grand feast…”
“I hope I can eat for a few more days… Hahaha… slurp…” The person seemed to swallow a mouthful of drool: “I’ve been craving this for a long time… It’s been too long since I’ve seen such tender, juicy lambs, just one look makes me feel it’s delicious… I can’t take it anymore, my saliva is flowing out…”
