The news of the Undying Holy Buddha made Li Qingshan unable to calm down.
This senior figure had been someone he closely followed. Although separated by thousands of years, Li Qingshan had been friends with him for a long time due to his maxed-level comprehension skills. Naturally, Li Qingshan attached great importance to the news of the Undying Holy Buddha.
“The book says he died in the center of the battlefield.”
“I’ve read a lot about the central battlefield in the past six months. It’s the last place before entering the Path to Immortality.”
“To traverse the central battlefield is to enter the Path to Immortality!”
“There isn’t much recorded about the Undying Holy Buddha. Is it because there’s nothing to record, or is it out of fear to record it?”
“There’s only one sentence on the eleventh floor of the library. I can’t find anything else. It seems that if I want to know the true answer, I have to go to the central battlefield!”
Li Qingshan observed as night fell, and dawn approached. He put down his book and walked downstairs, contemplating.
Chang’an City wasn’t far from the central battlefield.
Li Qingshan thought to himself, “I’ve rested for half a year. It’s time for me to go out and exercise.”
Ignoring the girl’s gaze downstairs, Li Qingshan walked back to the small house. He looked around and cleaned up. He put away his usual tea set and took it away.
When the sky turned bright, the city gates opened and Li Qingshan went out promptly.
After paying the points, Li Qingshan, dressed in white, employed the Kun Peng Precious Technique. Coupled with the Rapid Great Path, he moved swiftly, directly crossing mountains and seas to reach the central battlefield.
Having lived in the Dimensional Battlefield for close to two years, he was no longer a newcomer who knew nothing.
Especially in the past six months, he had read extensively. His knowledge was complex, but he understood everything thoroughly.
Just like how he understood the geography of the Dimensional Battlefield.
In the Dimensional Battlefield, the core region was undoubtedly the Path of Immortality.
That was the path from the Dimensional Battlefield to the Immortal Plane. There were many Immortals guarded it, and it was close to the Immortal Plane. There was Immortal Energy falling there, providing an excellent environment for cultivation.
Though the Dimensional Battlefield was a level higher than the Human World.
In essence, they still absorbed spiritual Qi like the Human World. It was very uncomfortable for Immortals to absorb spiritual Qi in the Human World, as it was turbid to them.
Therefore, Immortals refrained from entering the Dimensional Battlefield and interfering in its affairs to avoid tarnishing themselves.
Even the City Lord of Chang’an City wasn’t in Chang’an City. Instead, he appointed several Vice City Lords to control Chang’an City for him, each in charge of a region.
In front of the Path of Immortality was the central battlefield.
It was a vast battlefield with canyons, grasslands, swamps, and abysses…
Many dangers were hidden within. To enter the Dimensional Battlefield, one had to pass through the central battlefield.
In the central battlefield, countless experts were buried.
Even to this day, many people took risks to scavenge various treasures on the central battlefield, hoping to exchange them for points.
For them, this was a way to get rich, albeit a highly dangerous one with a high
death rate.
However, this danger applied mostly to those with low cultivation levels.
For example, the Human World Immortal Plane!
In the Human World, a Human World Immortal, who was considered a top expert, found themselves at the bottom of the food chain in the dimensional battlefield.
Li Qingshan’s traveling speed was swift. In less than 15 minutes, he crossed mountains and rivers, arriving at the central battlefield.
After crossing a massive mountain, the scenery suddenly opened up, revealing an ancient battlefield before Li Qingshan’s eyes.
The atmosphere was solemn, ancient, desolate, and filled with a palpable killing intent.
The ancient battlefield was vast, with brown soil, some areas tinged with red, and others with a dark hue. It stretched to the very edge where the sky and
earth met.
Li Qingshan noticed broken weapons sticking out of the ground, rotting away, and scattered bones left unattended.
“There are still people searching for treasures here. Let’s go and ask,” Li Qingshan thought. In an instant, his body disappeared, and he reached the outskirts of the central battlefield.
His sudden appearance startled the group of six.
“Who are you?” The leader shielded the others, staring at Li Qingshan in astonishment. He nervously swallowed saliva.
“Are you scavengers?” Li Qingshan asked. He knew that those who cleaned up the central battlefield and searched for treasures were commonly referred to as scavengers.
“Yes, senior. We’re a small group barely making ends meet, ” the leader replied. He saw that Li Qingshan was calm, his tone was gentle, and he relaxed a little.
“Don’t worry, I won’t take your things. I just want to ask how much you know about the central battlefield, ” Li Qingshan reassured.
Upon hearing this, the group sighed in relief.
“Senior, please ask. We’ll tell you everything we know,” the leader said cautiously.
“How long have you been scavenging in the central battlefield?” Li Qingshan inquired.
“For over ten years. We’ve pretty much covered the scavenging in this outer
region,” the leader responded, stretching out his hand, and pointing at the
large area in front of them.
“Do you know what happened in the central battlefield over the past ten years?” Li Qingshan continued.
“Senior, I don’t mean to boast, but I’m known as the Inquisitor. I love gossip and chatting with people, so I know a lot,” the leader modestly replied, though his words lacked modesty.
“In that case, do you know about the Undying Holy Buddha?” Li Qingshan, seeing the leader’s confidence, went straight to the point.
“Undying Holy Buddha?” The leader furrowed his brow, pondering.
His subordinates behind him were anxious, complaining that their boss had bragged just now.
After careful thought, the leader clapped his hands and said, “I was wondering whose name it was. It sounded familiar. Isn’t this the scum from Buddhist sects who opened up the central battlefield?”
“Scum from Buddhist sects?” Li Qingshan frowned. This reputation did not sound favorable..
