Chapter 106: Witness of the Era (3)
Su Chen left Central Continent. His first destination was the Southern Barbarian Lands. The Southern Barbarian Lands were the weakest. When picking soft persimmons, one always started with the easiest. After stepping through a spatial tunnel, he arrived in the Southern Barbarian Lands.
Thousands of years had passed. The land had changed beyond recognition.
Revisiting old places, Su Chen learned that the once-arrogant Imperial Sword Dynasty, which had dominated an era, had long since crumbled into dust along with the flow of history. In its place rose one new dynasty after another.
In his sixth life, he had offended far too many people. Standing at the pinnacle meant that even death did not erase debts. Though Shen Daoyuan had ultimately broken through to the Nirvana realm, he had still perished under the joint assault of the Imperial Sword Dynasty's enemies. The Shen Clan's bloodline had been extinguished completely.
Su Chen let out a soft sigh and headed toward the former site of the Imperial Sword Manor. He passed through mountains and rivers until he reached the foot of a lush, verdant peak. Along the way, he encountered an old man.
When the elder saw Su Chen walking toward the mountain, he quickly called out, "Young hero, are you heading up that peak to search for the ruins of the old Imperial Sword Manor in hopes of finding some opportunity?"
Su Chen nodded. "Does the elder know of the Imperial Sword Manor?"
The old man sighed. "How could I not know? Every year, young people like you come here hoping to uncover the legacy left behind by the Imperial Sword Manor, dreaming of becoming a legend like Emperor Shen. But without exception, they all end up in the jaws of the Tiger God that guards the mountain. That Tiger God… is the protector of the mountain. It allows no one to covet the ruins of the Imperial Sword Manor!"
Su Chen was mildly surprised.
