Zhang Xuan’s voice sliced through the air, its chill making the very Void in the valley tremble.

The skeletons, at last, comprehended fear. With a resounding cry, they surged out of the valley.

“Explode!”

Thunder erupted, shaking the world. All the skeletons that had entered the valley dissipated into thin air.

A series of chimes reverberated within Zhang Xuan’s mind, and the expanse of his Great Dao continued expanding.

Zhang Xuan sighed. These creatures were respawning at an agonizingly slow rate. If only they were quicker, he could’ve trained here until he achieved an authentic invincibility in his cultivation.

Converting life into an online game didn’t actually seem like a bad idea.

With Luhuang still on the path to awakening, Zhang Xuan silently observed the changes brought about by leveling up the system.

Notably, there weren’t any significant changes. At the start, there was Great Dao +1, and after leveling up, how much experience did the Great Dao yield? Presently, after the second level-up, it indicated how much the Great Dao had expanded in meters.

In the process of slaying monsters in the Burial World, the Great Dao also continued to stretch further.

This sort of toothpaste-like leveling up method ironically matched the system’s lack of usefulness!

Zhang Xuan was perplexed. It appeared that this system bore some grudge against the Burial World, as the hidden missions it issued appeared to be connected to the Burial World.

That’s right, the one the system targeted was that individual and the Qilin!

Zhang Xuan had to avenge his dog.

In Zhang Xuan’s heart, the dog was like family. That individual had dared to sneak attack the dog right in front of him. Sooner or later, he had to seek revenge for this.

“Ouch! Your Bird Master is in so much pain!”

In that moment, Luhuang’s pained cry snapped Zhang Xuan back to reality.

“Luhuang, how are you feeling?”

Zhang Xuan swiftly approached and noticed the apologetic look on Luhuang’s face.

“Silly bird, I… I had no idea master was like this.”

“If I had known, I wouldn’t have brought you back with me!”

Luhuang’s voice carried a sense of guilt. He cast his eyes downward, avoiding Zhang Xuan’s gaze.

Zhang Xuan grinned. “Don’t worry. I’m already grateful that you stood up for me.”

“Where’s master now?”

The man affirmed, “He’s already been laid to rest!”

“Take me to his grave. I want to see it.”

Luhuang’s expression held a mix of emotions. Zhang Xuan nodded, lifting the frail Luhuang and proceeding towards the heart of the valley.

Reaching a modest grave, Zhang Xuan gently set Luhuang down.

Luhuang’s countenance was heavy with sorrow. He shut his eyes, tears tracing a path down his cheeks.

Zhang Xuan turned away, preparing to depart, giving Luhuang ample space and time.

“Zhang Xuan, don’t leave. Dig it open!”

Luhuang suddenly stopped Zhang Xuan and said.

Zhang Xuan was stunned for a moment.

“Don’t forget where we are. His corpse isn’t broken and his soul isn’t destroyed. He will be contaminated by the environment here and become Hanba!”

“Although Gou Chen isn’t a thing, he is still a proud person. During the battle with Yin Tianzi, many people from Gou Chen’s family died, but none of them became Hanba!”

Zhang Xuan pondered for a moment, then nodded. With a wave of his hand, a river of time appeared. The burial mound disappeared, and next to it, a corpse appeared.

Luhuang “…”

“It’s just a simple application of the Time Great Dao!”

Zhang Xuan shrugged and said when he noticed Luhuang’s expression.

Luhuang looked at the corpse on the ground with a complicated expression, then put the corpse back into the Storage Ring and said, “Little Linshuang will definitely like it.”

It was rare for Luhuang to be serious, but Zhang Xuan was not used to it.

In the following time, Zhang Xuan brought Luhuang to every corner of Burial World, step by step.

One had to admit that the Burial World was huge, ridiculously large.

Taking a look, the mission panel actually indicated that he had only completed one-tenth of the mission.

Zhang Xuan was speechless, and could only lead Luhuang to continue looking around.

……

Skyless Burial Palace.

The commander of the army, Death Monarch Wutian, was sitting in his seat with his eyes closed, cultivating.

He was wearing a purple robe and a crown. His body was emitting purple light, and his eyes were glowing red.

Around him, the Spiritual Energy was rolling, and waves of Qi were spreading out.

This man was none other than the ruler of this region, Death Monarch Wutian, who was billions and billions of miles away.

Right at this moment, Death Monarch Wutian’s eyes suddenly opened. Two rays of red light were looking in a certain direction.

“It has been tens of millions of years, but you still can’t hold it anymore?”

Then, he said disdainfully, “Rats are rats. It will be hard for them to wait for the grand hall in this lifetime. However, since you have been exposed, I naturally can’t let you live anymore!”

After saying that, he didn’t make any moves. A tunnel appeared and Death Monarch Wutian disappeared among his peers.

……

In a cave.

Zhang Xuan and Luhuang were roasting meat.

Before entering, Zhang Xuan thought that he would be back soon, so he didn’t make any preparations. He didn’t bring much food with him in the Storage Ring.

After entering, he finally knew how rare it was to find a piece of meat here.

No wonder the old ancestors of the various major families had such a thirst for blood after leaving this place.

Here, blood food was a luxury.

The thing roasted on the shelf was a type of thing called Cerberus. The meat on this thing was very little, and it gave off a stinky rotten smell.

However, this was already one of the few pieces of meat in Burial World.

Moreover, this thing was extremely rare, because Cerberus was one of the major powers in Burial World. It came from Cerberus. It was born with the strength of a Void Stage, and when it reached adulthood, it would be a Monarch Stage.

The one roasted on the rack was a Heavenly King.

“Hualala…”

It was raining.

And the rain kept getting heavier.

Luhuang looked at it in shock.

Zhang Xuan was puzzled when he saw Luhuang’s expression.

“Silly bird, this is Burial World, there is no rain here.”

After so many days, Luhuang had returned to his usual carefree manner. Zhang Xuan really liked it.

The sound of footsteps became audible.

A surge of nervousness washed over Luhuang.

Zhang Xuan lifted his gaze and spotted a middle-aged man clad in python robes making his way toward him, step by step.

The man appeared taken aback upon noticing the roast meat on the shelf. He inquired, “Fellow Daoist, could I…”

“You’re interested in the meat? Certainly!”

Zhang Xuan grasped the other’s intention and gave a nod.

“Thank you!” The hefty man nodded in return and proceeded to the entrance of the cave. He located a small puddle and began to cleanse his hands unhurriedly.

Observing this, Zhang Xuan’s perception of the hefty man grew considerably.

This family exemplified longevity and togetherness!

Life should carry a sense of solemnity.

Zhang Xuan cast a glance at Luhuang, who had been drooling the entire time without bothering to wipe his mouth. His impression of the sturdy man improved.

With the return of the big man, the meat was also cooked to perfection.

Zhang Xuan ripped a piece of meat for Luhuang, who disregarded the dust on it and gulped it down directly.

Both Zhang Xuan and the sturdy man found this behavior somewhat off-putting.

Noticing their reactions, Zhang Xuan offered a kind smile to the sturdy man.contemporary romance

“Your roasted meat is quite impressive. Can you share the recipe? I’d like to have my family’s chefs learn it!”

“Oh come on, you have chefs too? Are you kidding, or just boasting?”

Upon hearing the burly man’s words, Luhuang sprang up from his seat, looking at the man in sheer astonishment.

In the Burial World, there were numerous individuals from the Human Clan, like Gou Chen, who were dispersed across every corner of the realm. However, those capable of training chefs were indeed a rarity.

Luhuang turned his gaze to the burly man and inquired, “Which family do you belong to?”

The big man’s brow furrowed. Clearly, he wasn’t accustomed to Luhuang’s tone, but due to the shared interest in roasted meat, he responded nonetheless.

“Wutian!”
