Foundation Establishment Means Death Sentence? Did My Simulator Glitch?

Chapter 94: The Heavenly Void Forbidden Land!

【“Zhuge Qing, have you gone insane?”】

【Although Chu Wudi had been fighting Zi You the entire time, part of his attention had always remained on Zhuge Qing.】

【Before coming here, Chu Wudi had asked Zhuge Qing to cast a divination for him. Zhuge Qing had said that this time his life would be in danger, so Chu Wudi had invited Zhuge Qing to come along with the promise of sharing the immortal opportunity.】

【And now, before his very eyes, Zhuge Qing had defected to your side and intended to join forces with you to kill him.】

【Yet in the face of Chu Wudi’s curses, Zhuge Qing ignored him completely, and the Mahayana cultivation on his body erupted at once.】

【Seeing that the situation was turning bad, Chu Wudi tried to tempt Zhuge Qing with the immortal opportunity once again, hoping to persuade him.】

【“Brother Zhuge! What is so great about the Heavenly Secrets Art? This Canglan Realm is already beyond saving. Why not join me in seizing the immortal opportunity and ascending to the Immortal World together?”】

【Zhuge Qing looked at Chu Wudi and shook his head.】

【“Brother Chu! We walk different paths and cannot make plans together!”】

【“From beginning to end, I never had any intention of ascending to the Immortal World!”】

【Immediately afterward, you saw Zhuge Qing unleash a move called the Myriad Manifestations Samsara Seal, directly sealing Chu Wudi’s movements.】

【This was your first time seeing the Myriad Manifestations Samsara Seal. It was a divine power attached to the eighth layer of the Heavenly Evolution Art, and only those who cultivated the Heavenly Evolution Art to the eighth layer could use it.】

【“No!”】

【You simply watched as Chu Wudi died at the hands of Zi You and Zhuge Qing.】

【After Chu Wudi was dealt with, Zhuge Qing walked toward you with a smile on his face.】

【“Chu Wudi is dead. Tell me where the Heavenly Secrets Art is!”】

【You told Zhuge Qing that the matter was rather complicated and that there was no need to rush. Once you returned to the Sword Pavilion, you would slowly clear up all his confusion.】

【After hearing that, the smile on Zhuge Qing’s face froze. The pressure of a Mahayana cultivator came crashing toward you.】

【Seeing this, Zi You flashed in front of you with the Great Void Technique and blocked that pressure for you.】

【“Are you playing me for a fool?”】

【“Do I need to play you for a fool?”】

【“Even if I told you right now where the Heavenly Secrets Art is, do you really think you have the ability to seize it?”】

【As soon as those words fell, you turned to Zi You beside you and said,】

【“Senior Sister, the matter has been settled. Let us return to the Sword Pavilion!”】

【As you passed by Zhuge Qing, you patted him on the shoulder.】

【“If you think you can snatch the Heavenly Secrets Art from Hao Tian Holy Land by yourself, then go ahead. I will not stop you!”】

【“As for me, I have a way to seize the Heavenly Secrets Art from Hao Tian Holy Land!”】

【With those words, you and Zi You directly left the Blood Demon Secret Realm and set up a new formation outside it once again.】

【Zhuge Qing looked at your departing back, lost in thought.】

【The next day!】

【As expected, you saw Zhuge Qing’s figure in the Sword Pavilion.】

【In the end, Zhuge Qing still compromised. He could not understand how someone with only Void Refinement cultivation like you could be so confident in snatching something from Hao Tian Holy Land.】

【Hao Tian Holy Land was one of the four great Holy Lands of the Central Continent, and among them, it was one of the stronger ones.】

【Even a Mahayana expert like Zhuge Qing would not dare claim that he could walk out of Hao Tian Holy Land alive.】

【You brought Zhuge Qing alone into the Sword Pavilion Hall.】

【You began explaining your plan to Zhuge Qing.】

【When Zhuge Qing heard you say that more than ten years later, the Canglan Realm would face a heaven-and-earth calamity, his first reaction was disbelief.】

【But very quickly, Zhuge Qing realized something was wrong.】

【Just because he, Zhuge Qing, could not deduce something did not mean that you could not deduce it either.】

【For instance, he had never deduced the whereabouts of the Heavenly Secrets Art.】

【So after hearing about the heaven-and-earth calamity, Zhuge Qing calmed down and asked exactly what sort of calamity it was.】

【You told Zhuge Qing that this calamity was aimed specifically at cultivators above Mahayana.】

【You did not tell Zhuge Qing the true details behind the calamity.】

【After hearing that, Zhuge Qing instantly understood your intention.】

【“So... you want to wait until after that calamity passes, and only then go to Hao Tian Holy Land to seize the Heavenly Secrets Art?”】

【You shook your head.】

【“No!”】

【“That calamity will only be the signal for our human race’s counterattack. It is not the time to seize the Heavenly Secrets Art.”】

【Zhuge Qing looked at you, his face full of confusion.】

【He did not understand. If the plan was not to seize the Heavenly Secrets Art after the calamity, then going to Hao Tian Holy Land now would simply be courting death.】

【From Zhuge Qing’s expression, you could see his confusion clearly.】

【So you explained,】

【“Senior Zhuge, it is not as you think.”】

【“I only deduced that the old site of the Heavenly Secrets Pavilion is in Hao Tian Holy Land. I did not directly deduce the Heavenly Secrets Art itself.”】

【“The old site of the Heavenly Secrets Pavilion?”】

【Only then did Zhuge Qing finally understand why you were so certain the Heavenly Secrets Art was in Hao Tian Holy Land.】

【Over all these years, Zhuge Qing had explored all kinds of secret realms throughout the Canglan Realm, and without exception, every Heavenly Secrets Art he found had only been fragmentary versions.】

【And the only place where one could obtain the complete Heavenly Secrets Art was none other than the old site of the Heavenly Secrets Pavilion.】

【Immediately afterward, you asked Zhuge Qing whether he knew anything about Hao Tian Holy Land. That was also one of the reasons you had invited Zhuge Qing here.】

【As a descendant of the Zhuge Clan and a Mahayana expert besides, you had assumed that he should know the situation in the Central Continent quite well.】

【Yet to your surprise, Zhuge Qing knew very little about Hao Tian Holy Land.】

【“Hao Tian Holy Land has always been rather mysterious!”】

【“I only know that Hao Tian Holy Land is located near the forbidden land known as the Heavenly Void.”】

【“The Heavenly Void?”】

【You frowned at Zhuge Qing and asked why Hao Tian Holy Land would choose to be near the Heavenly Void.】

【Zhuge Qing told you that he did not know the reason either.】

【You then immediately asked Zhuge Qing whether the Heavenly Void or the Desolate Deathlands was more dangerous.】

【After hearing that, Zhuge Qing froze slightly, then shook his head.】

【“The Desolate Deathlands should be more terrifying.”】

【Zhuge Qing told you that because the Heavenly Void had long been controlled by Hao Tian Holy Land, ordinary people simply could not approach it.】

【All information regarding the Heavenly Void was passed to the outside world by Hao Tian Holy Land itself.】

【When you heard Zhuge Qing say that, you were somewhat surprised.】

【You asked Zhuge Qing where exactly the Heavenly Void was located.】

【“The Heavenly Void lies in the Western Region of the Central Continent, near the edge of the Endless Sea Region.”】

【“The Western Region? Near the Endless Sea Region?”】

【You truly had not expected that a mighty Holy Land would choose such a remote location.】

【You could sense that there was definitely something suspicious hidden within this.】

【You asked Zhuge Qing whether there was any way to bypass Hao Tian Holy Land’s surveillance and head directly to the Heavenly Void Forbidden Land.】

【After a moment of silence, Zhuge Qing slowly spoke four words.】

【“The Endless Sea Region!”】

【“The Endless Sea Region can lead to the Heavenly Void?”】

【You looked at Zhuge Qing in confusion.】

【Zhuge Qing explained that the Heavenly Void was already not far from the Endless Sea Region. It was just that no roads connected that area to the other regions, so it was basically considered a dead end.】

【“However...”】
