Luo Shu felt herself falling to the ground. She opened her eyes, sat up, and looked around, only to see that she was surrounded by a vast expanse of sand. When she was sucked in by that stone, her first thought was to pull everyone into her dinsional space; however, at that mont, she found herself unable to use her Divine Sense.
"Shushu!" Lu Hanmo rushed to Luo Shu’s side the mont he saw her, pulling her up from the ground and tightly embracing her in his arms. When he was sucked into the stone, his greatest fear was not death but losing Shushu again. Fortunately, they hadn’t been separated this ti. As long as he could stay with Shushu, it didn’t matter to him whether it was paradise or hell.
"There’s actually an entire world here," Ye Lifeng’s astonished voice ca from behind.
Lu Hanmo released Luo Shu, reached out to hold her hand, and led her toward Ye Lifeng and the other two.
"I’m sorry! If it weren’t for , you all wouldn’t have been sucked into this world," Xiao Yao said, looking at the group with guilt.
"It’s fine. Our being pulled into this world might turn out to be an unexpected stroke of luck."
"Exactly, since we’re here, we might as well settle in and figure it out."
"Let’s first look around and see if there’s an exit." Everyone smiled casually. As long as they were alive, nothing else mattered.
They searched for a while but found nothing aside from the endless stretch of desert.
"The exit probably isn’t here; we should head to other places and search. If we can co in, there must be a way out," Lu Hanmo said, retracting his Divine Sense.
"Since we’re already here, why don’t we first explore this world?" Yun Han laughed. He was entirely unconcerned; recalling their venture into The Lost Space last ti alongside Luo Shu and Lu Hanmo, they hadn’t found an exit initially either but ultimately managed to escape.
"Let’s use the beast carriage." Luo Shu took out the beast carriage from her dinsional space. No matter how fast they walked, a beast carriage would be far more efficient.
Boarding the beast carriage, Luo Shu chose a direction and drove it forward swiftly.
The journey was dominated by barren desert, and after more than a week, they finally erged from the sands. Around them, plants began to appear, along with water sources.
"I see people! And houses too!" Ye Lifeng announced excitedly.
As Ye Lifeng spoke, everyone else also noticed the distant figures and structures. Moreover, there were more than just a single person or one house.
The figures in the distance noticed Luo Shu and her group as well. Two middle-aged n ran over quickly, stopping in front of their beast carriage.
Luo Shu and the others disembarked, gazing at the two n blocking their way. To their astonishnt, they found themselves unable to discern the n’s cultivation levels. This indicated that their strength was at least above the Divine King stage. What kind of place was this? How could anyone casually appearing here have such imnse cultivation?
"Respected elders, may we ask where this place is?" Yun Han inquired.
"This is Ti Country. You must have been sucked in by the Heart of Ti, right?" one of the middle-aged n asked.
"Are you referring to a fish-shaped stone?" Luo Shu asked in surprise.
"That’s the one. We were also drawn into this world by the Heart of Ti years ago. It’s been several thousand years since anyone new ca in," the middle-aged man said nostalgically.
The group was stunned and quickly asked, "Does this place have no way out?"
"If there was an exit, why would we have been stuck here for tens of thousands of years?" the man snorted.
"You must have cultivation resources, right? Give us so, and we’ll tell you about this world’s situation," he said. The resources they had brought with them had long been exhausted during their ti here.
Lu Hanmo casually tossed two storage bags to the n. He didn’t believe their claim that there wasn’t a way out.
"Thanks!" The two middle-aged n took the storage bags and smiled appreciatively at Lu Hanmo. These young ones seed quite decent!
"Co, let’s talk while we walk." The two n led Luo Shu’s group toward the small village nearby.
"This is Ti Country. Like the outside world, it has twelve Shichen in a day. The difference, however, lies in the distinct Immortal Spirit Energy and Ti Rules inherent to each Shichen."
The other man added, "Since the Ti Prairie first manifested, each ti it has opened, people have been sucked into this world by the Heart of Ti. Currently, there are 3,121 inhabitants in this world, among whom 1,563 are at the Heavenly Venerate stage. The rest are mostly at the Divine King stage." Indeed, those who could make it to the Heart of Ti were by no ans weaklings. For these youngsters to arrive here with their current cultivation levels was rather remarkable. After all, the Domain of Ti was fraught with dangers; without absolute strength, reaching the Heart of Ti was nearly impossible.
Upon hearing the sheer number of powerful individuals in this world, everyone couldn’t help but gasp. Over a thousand at the Heavenly Venerate stage—that was simply mind-boggling! If these individuals were to return to the Immortal Realm together, the entire realm would be thrown into chaos!
Gazing thoughtfully at the increasingly close village, Luo Shu’s mind began to race. If she could find a way to release these formidable beings back to the outside world, they wouldn’t have to fear the Top Ten Sects anymore. Moreover, so of these strong individuals must be mbers of those sects themselves. She was determined to find an escape route.
As the two middle-aged n led Luo Shu and her group closer, villagers began to gather around them.
"These little ones just got sucked in, didn’t they?" A white-bearded elder asked the two n.
One of the middle-aged n nodded. "Yes, the Ti Prairie has opened again outside. Inside here, we have no knowledge of the passage of ti beyond. The arrival of new people is the only proof that another thousand years have passed in the outside world."
Ti inside Ti Country flows differently from outside—while a day passes in the outside world, a year elapses here. Because of this peculiarity, residents felt the passage of ti even more acutely.
Nodding, the elder turned to Luo Shu’s group. "If you wish to stay in this village, you’d better hand over your cultivation resources for everyone to share." Although the Immortal Spirit Energy and Ti Rules here enabled cultivation, having additional resources was undeniably beneficial. After all, cultivation was their sole pursuit in this desolate world.
Without hesitation, Luo Shu raised her hand and released a pile of storage bags. If these items could win her their goodwill, it was undoubtedly worth the trade.
"Young one, you’re quite excellent!" The white-bearded elder bead with satisfaction. He appreciated people who acted decisively.
Turning to a middle-aged man beside him, the elder instructed, "Qingshan, help them arrange rooms." His authority was unmatched here, and the others naturally followed his orders.
"Understood!" Qingshan replied, leading Luo Shu and her team into the village.
He ushered them into an empty house. "You’ll be staying here from now on. It used to be inhabited, but those individuals left to search for an escape route."
With a sigh, he walked out of the house. Was there anyone in this place who hadn’t tried finding the exit? Unfortunately, none had returned successful.
