Chapter 1008 Thirty-three Days
He didn’t know what these dark air currents were, but just by looking at them he had a sense of danger. It was obvious that these air currents must be an extremely dangerous evil spirit.

“It’s right here. It was a close call just now. I didn’t expect there was a Daluo Jinxian nearby. I don’t know what the other party’s purpose is.”

The World Tree was secretly afraid. At that time, the Great Xia Immortal Emperor had unparalleled calculus skills. With the help of a small purple statue, he was able to calculate to this place that was separated by countless galaxies. The World Tree also learned from the Great Xia Immortal Emperor that this piece of dark void had a nice name, called the Thirty-three Heavens.

No one knows the origin of this name, but it is a name recognized by many powerful people in the heavens and all realms. This is indeed not a good place, but a dangerous place, similar to the Ruins of the Era mentioned by Taihuangtian.

However, in terms of danger, this place is far less dangerous than the Ruins of the Epoch. Even so, the danger here is equally terrifying, otherwise it would not be called a forbidden place by the powerful people in the heavens and all worlds.

Zhang Qian looked slowly and saw nothing but darkness all around and countless black air currents stretching for billions of miles. Apart from that, there was nothing else.

“Are you planning to place the world here? Since this place is a famous forbidden place in the universe, there must be many Golden Immortals coming to explore it. Isn’t there a danger of repeating the same mistakes?”

“Of course not here. What you see is just the appearance. The real Thirty-three Heavens are behind this darkness. According to the calculations of the Great Xia Immortal Emperor, the Thirty-three Heavens are thirty-three layers of infinite worlds. Each layer is no smaller than the Great Thousand Worlds, and is even larger. However, the Thirty-three Heavens are already in ruins. No living creature can survive in them. In each layer of the heavens, there are countless strange and terrifying spaces. The tripod in my hand can enter a secret place in the eighteenth layer of the heavens.”

After listening to this, Zhang Qian still had many questions in his mind, but now was not the time to ask them. After the World Tree recovered from the injuries caused by forcibly controlling the tripod, she took out the tripod again and waited for Zhang Qian to enter it. The tripod turned, carrying the two of them straight towards the countless black air currents in front of them.

Dangdangdang…!
What was strange was that these seemingly ethereal air currents were unexpectedly heavy. As the tripod passed through them, it kept making loud clanging noises, and no one knew what it had hit.

The World Tree did not allow the treasure tripod to manifest the void channel again, but instead let the treasure tripod fly away. Being inside the treasure tripod, Zhang Qian could not see the situation outside. He only vaguely felt that the breath outside was becoming more and more terrifying. It was an breath of annihilation that shook people’s souls.

Moreover, the higher the treasure tripod flew, the stronger the aura became. In the end, even through the treasure tripod, Zhang Qian felt as if his whole body was being pressed by billions of divine swords.

When Lang Lang…!
Suddenly, the treasure tripod shook violently, as if it had collided with something. After the treasure tripod tumbled for a while and finally stopped, the World Tree nodded to Zhang Qian, and the two of them flashed out of the treasure tripod.

“here……!”

As soon as he came out of the treasure tripod, Zhang Qian was stunned by the scene before him. This was an endless desolate land with a gloomy sky. Under his feet was the top of a half-broken sacred mountain. Not far from him, there were a dozen divine weapons that had decayed into a ball and were scattered around.

The appearance of these weapons is hard to recognize as they are all covered with thick rust, but they still exude a sharp aura that makes people feel cold all over.

Looking into the distance, most of the sacred mountains in sight have been cracked. Some of these sacred mountains still have ruins-like buildings left on them, and most of them only have foundations left. From the scattered ruins, it can be seen that these buildings must have been majestic and magnificent in the past, with extraordinary momentum.

What is weird is that in such a vast world, there is no green at all, no flowers, no trees, and it is dead silent wherever you look. This is a dead silent world, just like the thirty-six states that have been struck by the thunder of law. There is no vitality at all, only desolation.

“Is this the Eighteenth Heaven?”

“This is it. It is exactly the same as the calculation by the Great Xia Immortal Emperor. It is almost the same. It is a pity that such an amazing calculation technique has not been passed down.”

World Tree sighed softly and pointed: “The secret place I mentioned is over there. What are you doing?” “What is this?”

Zhang Qian walked towards the rusted magic weapons. He saw a flash of purple-gold light out of the corner of his eye, which immediately attracted him.

“is blood!”

When he got closer to those magical weapons and looked carefully, he saw another inch-long bloodstain in the cracks of these rusted magical weapons. The bloodstain emitted a purple-gold divine light. The magical thing was that these magical weapons were all rusted, but this trace of bloodstain showed no signs of decay. When he was close, Zhang Qian could even sense the shocking vitality in the bloodstain!
“What kind of existence left this bloodstain? These divine weapons have decayed, clearly having been eroded by billions of years, but this bloodstain looks as if it had just dripped, full of vitality. Could it be the real blood of a Daluo Jinxian?”

Just as Zhang Qian was guessing, the bloodstain that was flowing with purple-gold divine light suddenly moved. This movement was incredibly fast, and it turned into a lifelike blood arrow that rushed towards his forehead.

“not good!”

Zhang Qian felt a sharp pain between his brows. Without caring about anything else, he hurriedly raised the Xuanhuang Pagoda and sprinkled down layers of Xuanhuang Taoist energy.

Boom!
With a loud bang, dense cracks appeared in the Xuanhuang Dao Qi, and Zhang Qian was almost pierced by the blood arrow. He staggered and almost fell.

Rumble…!
The World Tree pointed a finger, and a huge black and white mill rushed over. The mill’s laws of life and death rotated, and the upper and lower grinding wheels ground continuously, instantly sucking the trace of blood into the mill and grinding it.

Crunch! Crunch…!
As the grinding progressed, there was a sound of bones breaking and faint roars of resentment, which made people shudder.

“Humph, you dare to do something strange just because of a trace of blood!”

The World Tree snorted coldly, and the Grinder of Life and Death shook violently. The grinding force surged, and after a clear scream, there was no movement.

Swish!
A terrifying divine power flew out from the Mill of Life and Death. This was the essence that was ground out, and also the essence of that trace of blood.

Zhang Qian was vaguely afraid. This place was too weird. A mere trace of blood could have such power. It took the World Tree all its strength to use its magical power of the law of life and death to wipe it out. How many bloodstains like this were there?
No matter how Zhang Qian looked at it, he felt that this place was like a vast battlefield. The cracked sacred mountains, the ruins all over the ground, and the rotten sacred weapons almost everywhere, all told of a shocking war that had taken place here.

The cultivation level of the cultivators in that great war must have been unimaginable, otherwise there wouldn’t be a trace of blood that has remained intact for billions of years and still has such spirituality and vitality.

“This is one of the most dangerous places in the universe. We must be careful.”

Zhang Qian nodded, and the two of them began to move forward step by step towards the secret place that the Great Xia Immortal Emperor had calculated. They did not use any escape techniques, for fear of alerting the strange existence here, but their speed was not slow.
