Upon seeing the defense system change, Yang Tian immediately employed a method to break it, which had taken him an hour earlier, and continued to breach it further.
But at that moment, a murder threat echoed from behind Yang Tian, followed by a ferocious voice shouting, "Boy, I'll make sure you die!"
"Are you coming to chase me?"
Xiao Yu turned her face abruptly upon hearing the voice, looking at Yang Tian.
However, Yang Tian said without hesitation, "While he moves as swiftly as a devil and isn't stupid, his leg hasn't recovered quickly, but there's an ominous sound near him.
A problem!
In the fierce winds, the airflow in the starfield surged vertically and horizontally, strong enough to shatter even small drifting meteors under its force!
The devil's first strike, so ferocious, caused a blood flower to bloom during the defense period.
But the Curse Killer's face turned grim, as he felt no concrete sensation in that clap!
Clearly, that slap hadn't landed on anyone—Yang Tian hadn't died!
Considering this, the Curse Killer immediately flicked his wide sleeve, dispersing the calm wind from the slap's aftermath, gazing at it afterwards.
To his shock, a natural hawthorn defensive barrier now appeared with a fist-sized gap, which was healing slowly, vanishing within moments!
"That little beast got inside?"
Watching this defensive tactic's recovery, the Curse Killer frowned deeply, taking no further action.
After all, he understood the natural defensive hawthorn barrier before him—that's why he couldn't breach it!
But the crucial point was that he also knew about the starfield behind the sun. He knew it well!
That place was a renowned despair zone in the Northern Demon World!
The so-called despair zone, as the name suggests, was naturally a very dangerous region!
The universe is vast. Even when dividing the Ghost Buddha Domain into the four upper realms, there's still insufficient exploration.
Even among the four upper realms, there are many unknown regions!
The starfield was one of them!
According to the Curse and Killing Master, this starfield had once hosted a Level 9 Demon Level powerhouse in the Northern Magic World, radiating the aura of an overwhelming star. Yet it eventually disappeared, with its life or death uncertain.
The nine mysterious magic-level powerhouses themselves remain unseen, let alone the Curse and Demon Slayer Master continuing his pursuit of Yang Tian, eventually encountering him.
Just letting Yang Tian go like this left the Curse and Killing Demon Master somewhat discontent, so after a while, he sank into contemplation.
At this moment, God placed another bet on a colored ribbon—too late, and surely a devil's presence wouldn't help!
Glancing at the Curse and Demon Killer, he found that Yang Tian was gone. The dove frowned slightly, realizing the environment was useless. Then he opened his mouth and said, "The devil doesn't need this! This is a despair zone. Yang Tian has entered the realm, facing nine deaths in one survival!"
"What if he doesn't die?"
The Curse Demon snorted coldly.
"Survival is unlikely!"
"If he survives, he will reappear one day. Then we'll send the people from Blood Curse Star to pursue him, one after another," the dove said with a laugh.
"Would you chase him back yourself?"
Hearing the dove's useless remark, the Curse Master stayed silent for a moment before exclaiming with terror, "Fine! Do as you wish! The devil has stayed here for a hundred years; he must give the little beast life or death, unburied!"
As he spoke, the Curse Killer slammed a jade token down decisively, clearly signaling the commencement—starting with a Blood Demon Star expert.
Yang Tian no longer cared about their thoughts and actions.
At that moment, he and Xiao Yu had entered the hawthorn barrier and immediately plunged into darkness.
Though the Devil World had no sun, with only a Blood Moon, making the Devil World dimly lit, often shrouded in shadow.
Yet the darkness before him was something Yang Tian had never encountered!
This was pure, fingerless blackness!
Not even God would venture to explore it.
Thus, even though Yang Tian didn't yet know this was a renowned despair zone in the Continent Demon Domain, he realized it was undoubtedly no easy place!
But now, he had no other choice!
Ahead lay unknown darkness, while behind him loomed the Curse Demon's pursuit!
So Yang Tian gave it little thought and sat cross-legged, preparing to regulate his breathing.
During the fierce battle with the radiant Blue Monarch, Yang Tian, though shrouded in perils, was ultimately tempered by the scorching heavens and earth, surpassing his limits to suffer significant injuries, thus solidifying his foundation in demon cultivation!
The foundational injury was unlike ordinary damage!
Once formed, it could lead to permanent harm for Yang Tian if left untreated!
Such destruction might cause Yang Tian's cultivation progression to plummet rapidly, likely trapping him in future bottlenecks.
If not for the collapse of the mountain palace and the Curse Demon Master's relentless pursuit, Yang Tian might have postponed addressing it!
Thus, at this moment, Yang Tian naturally focused on restoring his foundation.
Thinking so, Yang Tian retrieved a bundle of pills from Qian Kunjie and laid them in front of him. He then began consuming the pills methodically, harmonizing his breathing.
This adjustment lasted half a month.
When Yang Tian finally opened his eyes, all he felt was refreshed, comforted, with a heavy chest lightened.
The Dead Zone?
At the same time, Yang Tian sensed the darkness fading, and light returning.
At this moment, Yang Tian appeared no longer within the starfield's defensive terrain; at least he could tell he'd left his prior position.
Beneath his feet, there were thickets, and before him stood wooden huts, along with a diminutive yet seemingly grand white-haired elder facing him.
Clearly, the elder appeared somewhat enigmatic!
"You are steadfast, boy!"
Watching Yang Tian's awakening, with quick reflexes void of fear or panic, instead observing calmly, the elder immediately chuckled: "It's been years since I've seen such a composed look. It seems fortune has smiled upon us!"
"Years? Elder, where is this place? How did I end up here?"
Seeing no hostility in the elder, Yang Tian stood up and inquired.
"What place is this?"
Upon hearing Yang Tian's question, the elder didn't answer immediately but sighed in self-mockery, his tone filled with bitterness: "This is a despair zone, a monk's grave! We give it a shared name—the Death World!"
Despair?
Monk's grave?
Dead Zone?
Upon hearing the elder's words, Yang Riwu furrowed his brow slightly.
But just as he prepared another query, the elder shook his head and said, "Don't ask too much; prepare yourself for survival at speed. Unfortunately, you will soon witness the worst this place has to offer. If you survive, you'll find someone who will explain everything!"
As he spoke, the elder slowed his steps and gazed at Yang Tian's grip on his blade: "A fine weapon! May it safeguard your days ahead!"
With that said, the elder turned away.
Yang Tian didn't oppose the elder's advice but followed his lead.
After just a few steps forward, they arrived at the wooden huts Yang Tian had noticed earlier.
To Yang Tian's surprise, these wooden huts comprised a village.
Numerous villagers were nervously polishing their magic weapons!
Indeed, polishing!
The magic weapons in their hands seemed intact but were mostly damaged, stripped of the treasures' typical luster.
The impression left resembled what Yang Tian mentioned earlier!
This sight left Yang Tian even more perplexed.
