The desolation and overgrown grass proclaimed that this place had been in ruins for countless years.
âEven if the once magnificent buildings are preserved, itâs hard to hide the traces of timeâs erosion,â Li Qingshan sighed.
He walked around the palace, but there was no one.
Or rather, not a single living being.
Li Qingshan walked into the palace and saw a tomb.
The entire palace was empty and overgrown with weeds. However, there was a large tomb in the center, and there was not a single weed around it.
This tomb was extremely calm and stood there.
There was a tombstone.
But there were no words on the epitaph.
This was a wordless stele.
Li Qingshan was delighted. For others, perhaps they would need to dig up the tomb to find out what was inside.
For Li Qingshan, it wasnât necessary.
He carefully observed the surroundings to see if there were any formation patterns or killing arrays set up by Emperor experts. After making sure that nothing was wrong, he walked to the front of the tomb.
âSenior, allow me to wipe your tombstone.â Li Qingshan bowed and took out his tools from his spatial storage.
The stele wiper Little Li came online.
Wiping meticulously, with a clear mind, Li Qingshan cleaned the dust off the tombstone. After wiping it clean, a line of words appeared before his eyes.
[Your serious wiping activated Maxed-Level Comprehension, and youâve comprehended the Stele World.]
Li Qingshanâs expression brightened. âIt was the Stele World. Itâs been a long time since Iâve comprehended one.â
He sat cross-legged in front of the tombstone, watching this Stele World.
Li Qingshan was looking forward to it.
The Abyss Forbidden Land was renowned as extremely terrifying by the people of the Immortal Plane. Even the Godly King didnât want to enter it without reason. Then, who was the expert who could be buried here?
The world was turned upside down.
This time entering the Stele World was different from usual.
Li Qingshan felt as if he had crossed countless eras before arriving in the Stele World.
His vision suddenly became clear.
He saw an extremely long river bank.
Li Qingshan himself couldnât tell how long it was.
It stretched endlessly to the end of the world.
An elderly appeared on the riverbank.
The elderly was dressed in animal skin, his hair was braided into dozens of small braids, and there was a large silver earring on his ear. This attire wasnât like that of an ordinary person.
âBarbarian Clan!â Li Qingshan immediately thought of Aâman in the Celestial Court Academy.
When he first entered the Celestial Immortal Academy, he was also dressed in animal skin. His hair was tied into a braid, but there were no earrings in his ears.
It was obvious that this elderly was from the Barbarian Clan.
The elderlyâs aura was vast and terrifying. He continued to go deeper along the river bank at a rapid pace.
Fortunately, this was the Stele World. If this was the real world, it would be impossible for Li Qingshan to catch up to the elderly.
After sprinting for an unknown distance, the riverbank was still there. The elderly finally stopped.
Li Qingshan saw that the elderly had come to this area. The riverbank was full of scars.
These were the traces left behind by the battle.
The riverbank was huge and terrifying. To leave such scars on it, Li Qingshan estimated that only peerless experts could have done it.
The elderly suddenly jumped down the river bank and disappeared.
Li Qingshan stayed where he was and didnât turn around.
After waiting for about ten minutes, the elderly flew up.
He had a sorrowful expression and was holding a woman in his arms. Li Qingshan couldnât see the womanâs face because it was blocked by the elderly.
The elderly carried the woman and staggered away.
Then, the space rotated. Li Qingshan saw a long stretch of palaces and magnificent buildings.
It was just like the abandoned palace building he saw in the Abyss Forbidden
Land.
The elderly buried the woman in the center of the palace.
Then, he erected a tombstone.
Standing in front of the tombstone, the elderlyâs expression was sorrowful. His wrist trembled. He wanted to raise his hand several times to write an epitaph for the woman, but he eventually put it down.
âYou are the Venerable, and I am Aâman. The Venerable is the Venerable, and the barbarians are just barbarians,â The Elderly said softly.
Then, Li Qingshan watched the elderly turn around and leave, and the scene ended abruptly.
Space changed, like the ending of Zhuangziâs dream, and Li Qingshanâs consciousness returned to his body.
He had once again returned to the present.
A Venerable figure was buried in this tomb.
Li Qingshan didnât know whether the Venerable was a realm or a title.
However, it was undeniable that this woman was extremely powerful.
âThat Barbarian Clan expert must have admired this Venerable, but the outcome wasnât satisfactory,â Li Qingshan sighed.
It can be seen from the last sentence.
The Venerable was still the Venerable.
It was only after the Venerable died that Alman had the chance to get close to her.
âBut how many years ago was this?â Li Qingshan frowned.
The elderly brought the Venerableâs corpse back from the dam and buried her here.
This was the God Realm.
The God Realm was founded by the top experts of the God Race. It was a world that relied on the Immortal Plane.
The God Realm was only born 100,000 to 200,000 years ago.
So, the story of Aâman and the Venerable happened during this period?
âThat shouldnât be the case either. Since the God Realm has only existed for such a short time, how did the Abyss Forbidden Land come into being?â Li Qingshan thought of this question again.
âThe most crucial thing is where is that dam?â Li Qingshan muttered to himself.
The dam was the key.
Li Qingshan had never seen such a long dam between heaven and earth.
The Venerable died in battle under the dam. What was she fighting for?
With these thoughts in mind, there was only confusion.
Li Qingshan shook his head. âForget it, no point in dwelling on it. Overthinking only clouds the mind. Iâll just keep this matter in my heart. My top priority is to find the things needed for the giant sword and Hua Xiangrong..â
