The surroundings were boundless.

That was a plot of mysterious land without any plants. There were stone pillars as high as the sky everywhere.

“Is this the interior of the pagoda… Self-contained space, such Mystical Instruments are at least of a Divine tier.” Xu Yang exclaimed, amazed at what he was seeing.

Mystical Instruments were the weapons and accessories made by craftsmen. It could magnify the strength of Mystical Warriors to the utmost of its abilities.

Mystical Instruments were categorized into tiers. They were the Sacred, Divine, Earth, and Mortal tiers.

Xu Yang’s mind ran through his thoughts over and over again. Since the pagoda could be hidden in the clan founder’s statue, it should not be a low-tier Mystical Instrument. It would not be surprising if it were a Divine-tier Mystical Instrument.

2“It could even be a Sacred-tier Mystical Instrument. I’m going to be rich.” the thought that struck Xu Yang vanished as abruptly as it came. He started to explore the space that he was in.

3Xu Yang walked in front of one of the stone pillars. It was as tall as the sky, its thickness could be hundreds in feet.

After Xu Yang went one round around the pillar, he found a corpse with its shoulder bone that was penetrated by a blackgold chain, there was a line of words on the top of its head:

“Suppressed Li Junbi of the Divine Wrath Kingdom!”

“The Divine Wrath Kingdom… This great kingdom has been recorded in historical books. The country ruled dozens of small countries. The country possessed billions of miles of land and populations of hundreds of billions. The country was very powerful! Li Junbi, as the last emperor of the kingdom, was a Mystical Emperor!”

Xu Yang was utterly amazed. A master who had been standing on the peak of the land could be killed in this tiny pagoda?

He paced toward another pillar and saw another corpse which was penetrated by a blackgold chain. There was also a line of words on the top of its head:

“Suppressed Xu Haitao of the Dark Sky Kingdom!”

The Dark Sky Kingdom was recorded in the historical books as well. It was a nation which was as strong as Divine Wrath Kingdom. Xu Haitao was the last emperor of the kingdom too.

Xu Yang then continued his exploration in panic.

“Suppressed Gao Cangming of River Surge Kingdom!”

“Suppressed Ren Jixing of Dong Heng Kingdom!”

“Suppressed Hua Miaoyu of Fragrant Lotus Kingdom!”

***

“Seventy nine, eighty, eighty one…” Xu Yang was more and more surprised as he continued counting the number of pillars. There were a total of eighty one pillars in this tiny pagoda. This meant that it had suppressed eighty one emperors from the great kingdoms. There were eighty one Mystical Emperors!”

2Xu Yang was utterly shocked.

After a long while, Xu Yang finally reacted.

“It seems that the word I saw on the pagoda at first… was Mystical Suppressing Pagoda?” Xu Yang mumbled. “It is truly a Mystical Cultivator suppressor. Those people who were suppressed here were all terrific people who stood at the pinnacle of Mystical Cultivators. If they were still alive, the earth might tremble when they walk. The wind and clouds may merge together thunderously when they reach out their hands!”

2“Sh*t, how do I get out from here?” Xu Yang said out loud in exasperation, the clog wheels in his head working furiously. As he was thinking of a way out, he suddenly felt the world spinning once more and was moments later ejected from the Inner Realm. He was once again sitting cross-legged as he was before. However, the eighty-one pillars in the endless land had disappeared without any trace.

“So I am able to leave if I think about leaving.” Xu Yang muttered, after a sudden realization of what had happened.

“What are you doing, Xu Yang?” A voice came behind.

Xu Yang turned his head and saw one of the members of the Solo Cultivators, Du Ming. His cultivation stage was at that of an Intermediate Mystical Learner.

Du Ming was Lu Song’s faithful subordinate. Taking advantage of Lu Song’s authority, he would always order the previous Xu Yang to do everything for him and scold him when he was slightly displeased.

“The guys are waiting for you to look for water. How dare you hide here and rest as you please?” Du Ming walked toward him, sneering widely. “Is your skin itching because you haven’t been hit today? Do you need me to help you loosen your bones?”

Xu Yang looked coldly at Du Ming. Although his cultivation and body strength were stronger than Xu Yang’s, Xu Yang was not afraid to fight him!

Xu Yang was from the future, ten thousand years from now—the era where Mystical Qi was so scarce. The Mystical Cultivators had, through time, refined their melee combat skills to an astonishing level. As long as their gap in strength fell within a certain range, they could make that up with skills.

1Du Ming was surprised, and his face soon turned dark. He had expected Xu Yang to look terrified and beg for mercy after his threats. However, Xu Yang did nothing of that sort. Xu Yang stared at him coldly, as if he was looking at some kind of inferior creature with low intelligence.

“Very well, Brother Song was right. It seems that you have really become so stupid to the point where you’ve forgotten the lessons that you have gone through!” Du Ming folded his sleeves and said. “Let this little master of yours refresh your memory, kneel!”
