Wedding Night: I Am Forced To Marry A Dragon Girl-Chapter 572 - : Setting Off
Chapter 572: Chapter 572: Setting Off
Upon leaving the Blood Mist Pavilion, Jiang Xiaobai asked the Two Elders Gold and Silver to inform Ao Yan and the others of his next adventure when the time was right.
Subsequently, he headed straight towards the extreme north.
According to the map, that was where the entrance to the Abyss Forbidden Land was located.
It would take five to six days to reach there, during which time, Jiang Xiaobai would sleep under the stars and eat on the go.
Every night he would make a fire and roast some meat, accompanied by fine wine. Despite the circumstances, life seemed carefree.
However, he couldn’t shake off a feeling that something was amiss.
During these several days, he often felt as if he was being watched, but he was surrounded by barren wilderness, and his spiritual perception didn’t detect anyone nearby.
Not only that, peculiar waves of sensation would occasionally assault him.
Vexingly strange.
Jiang Xiaobai had no idea what was causing it, but this feeling was only making him more and more uneasy.
He had the ominous premonition that something terribly wrong would happen.
“Strange, is it just my imagination, or is someone really tailing me?”
Jiang Xiaobai was perplexed. Yet no matter how much he searched or how wary he was, the strange feeling persisted.
Finally, despite his strange premonition, Jiang Xiaobai arrived at a snowfield.
This was the location of the Abyss Forbidden Land marked on the map, but all he could see was an endless expanse of the snow-covered field. Where could the entrance be?
Jiang Xiaobai searched for miles but found no signs of habitation, let alone someone to ask for directions.
This vexed him greatly.
With no other options, he started searching aimlessly for other possible entrances.
He searched for two days, but found nothing.
Just when he started doubting if Gu Ning was playing a trick on him, he suddenly saw a group of people on a distant mountain!
The group stood out starkly against the white, snow-covered mountain.
Jiang Xiaobai followed them and found out that the group leader was a practitioner in the Mid-stage of Great Achievement phase, and, astonishingly, all members of the group were practitioners in the Great Achievement phase!
He had no idea whether they were from the Sacred City or some other places.
After some consideration, he decided to reveal his presence and ask for information.
He guessed that these people were on their way to the Abyss Forbidden Land too.
However, as soon as he revealed himself, the group of eight immediately became alert and watched him closely.
All eight of them exhibited powerful spiritual energies, seemingly ready to strike at any time.
Jiang Xiaobai tried to appear non-threatening: “Ladies and gentlemen, are you heading to the Abyss Forbidden Land?”
At these words, everyone frowned, exchanged glances, and the leader, a practitioner in the Mid-stage of Great Achievement phase, asked doubtfully,
“What do you mean, who are you, reveal your identity. Or else we will have to kill you today!”
These people being Great Achievement practitioners, had terrifying aura.
As for Jiang Xiaobai, he was only in the Late Stage of Fusion, and as they saw it, killing him was as easy as lifting their hands. However, they needed to be extra cautious around here.
That was why they didn’t rashly attack Jiang Xiaobai.
“I am from the Blood Mist Pavilion in Province City and am also planning to venture into the Abyss Forbidden Land.” Jiang Xiaobai quickly responded, laughing nervously. He also prepared for the potential combat at any time.
These guys were truly bizarre.
“So, you’re from the Blood Mist Pavilion in the Sacred City, sorry for our rudeness.”
Upon hearing this, the group’s leader’s face softened: “We are from the Northern Tremor Holy Land.”
Upon hearing this, Jiang Xiaobai was taken aback. He had never heard about anything relating to the North, let alone the Tremor Holy Land.
He also came to understand that the Tianxuan Continent was vast and there were many places that he had yet to explore.
“Did you come to the Abyss Forbidden Land for trials on your own?” The leader asked.
“Yes, but I could not find the entrance to the Abyss Forbidden Land even after searching for several days.”
“Hahaha, I see, in this case, we invite you to join us.”
Saying these words, the man gestured for Jiang Xiaobai to join their group.
Jiang Xiaobai was initially puzzled. He had never met these people before, so why were they so friendly? Furthermore, they were all in the Great Achievement phase while he was merely in the Late Stage of Fusion. There should not be any reason for them to be this polite with him, right?
Only after he probed them a bit more did he finally understand.
The entrance to the Forbidden Abyss was atop of this snowy mountain!
The whole mountain was a forbidden area, and no one was allowed to stir trouble here, except for one group!
They were the guardians of this forbidden land!
These Great Achievement practitioners seemed to be quite familiar with the Abyss Forbidden Land as they revealed to Jiang Xiaobai that the guardians were incredibly powerful.
Even though they were only at the Unity or Tribulation phases, they could easily deal with a Great Achievement practitioner.
Upon Jiang Xiaobai’s appearance, they dared not make any hasty moves, fearing that Jiang Xiaobai was one of those guardians.
Jiang Xiaobai was struck with awe.
These people did not know why the guardians were so powerful, but Jiang Xiaobai did. Perhaps these guardians were not even beings of this world!
Or even if they were from this world, their cultivation was completely different!
“If the guardians are so powerful, why don’t they establish their own faction and dominate the world?” Jiang Xiaobai couldn’t help but ask.
“Well, you see, as soon as we stepped onto this mountain, we have already left the space we were in previously.”
“This is a unique space where the guardians of the forbidden land can never leave. Nobody knows why.”
“Otherwise, the situation on the Tianxuan Continent would not be as it is now.”
The leader of the Great Achievement practitioners smiled lightly.
As they continued to chat, they finally reached the top of the snowy mountain. All that they could see was a vast expanse of silver whiteness, and a small black dot in the distance.
That was a cave, and the entrance to the Abyss Forbidden Land was right there!
“Little friend, I have a word of advice for you. Once you step into the Abyss Forbidden Land, you must refrain from taking impulsive actions, or else you might bring about your own downfall.”
The Great Achievement practitioner again cautioned: “Your ability to venture out at such a young age shows your extraordinary talent. But there are many rules inside the forbidden land, and violating any will lead to your death.”
Jiang Xiaobai nodded in agreement.
Upon reaching the entrance to the cave, the group that was leading the way suddenly stopped.
Then, three men, dressed in red armor, appeared before them.
They were the guardians of the forbidden land.
“World Stones.”
The leading guardian lazily demanded. The Great Achievement practitioner hastily handed over a storage ring.
Jiang Xiaobai took the opportunity to size up the guardians. Although they were only at the Mid-Tribulation phase, their auras were horrifying!
The feeling was similar to the powerful masters he had met in the War God Space.
While he was deep in thought, one of the Guardians approached him.
“It’s your first time here, isn’t it?” The man looked Jiang Xiaobai up and down and sneered patronizingly.
“For first-timers, we require 200 World Stones.”
“Hurry up and get it out, don’t waste our time.”
