Chapter 1848: Chapter 1945: Offering Face, But Not Wanting It

The flames dissipated, and Jade Qincheng’s body had turned to ashes, leaving nothing behind, burned extremely thoroughly.

Fang Lin’s expression was complex. Jade Qincheng had died just like that, at his hands. Although he didn’t feel that what he did was wrong, there was still a sense of helplessness in his heart.

"Jade Qincheng was willing to die, so what she said before was probably true. Five Ancient Spirit Incarnations, only knowing the true identity of two of them, while the other three remain unknown, is indeed troublesome." Fang Lin stood on the island thinking to himself as he looked up at the sky.

Although he had killed Jade Qincheng and resolved a major threat, Fang Lin did not feel at ease at all.

After all, the power of each Ancient Spirit Incarnation is comparable to a Martial Lord. This could be seen from Mo Shouhe and the first generation Demon Saint.𝒻𝘳𝘦𝘦𝘸ℯ𝒷𝘯𝘰𝑣ℯ𝑙.𝘤𝑜𝘮

The more Ancient Spirit Incarnations there are, the greater the pressure on Fang Lin. After all, he will inevitably face such formidable figures in the future, and having one more or one less makes a world of difference.

"Now that the ancient magic tree has died with Jade Qincheng, logically the fifth Ancient Spirit Incarnation shouldn’t appear," Fang Lin thought as he picked up a stone from nearby, smoothing and polishing it. On the stone slab, he carved the words ’Cheng Qingyu’s Tomb’ and placed it where Jade Qincheng’s body was burned.

The reason for not using the name Jade Qincheng was that Fang Lin did not want any established historical facts to change. In ancient times, there was no Jade Qincheng, only Cheng Qingyu.

After finishing these tasks, Fang Lin withdrew the array from the island, then flew off without a trace.

Soon after Fang Lin left, a mutation occurred at the site of the tombstone. A sprout, thinner than a pinky finger, stubbornly pushed through the soil. Although it was charred like charcoal, it survived.

After emerging from the ground, the sprout crawled towards the coast, taking more than ten days to finally reach the sea.

In the Savage Western Forest, many years had passed since the last True Dragon caused chaos. The area had changed significantly from before, as the damage from the True Dragon’s havoc was immense.

Beyond the Savage Western Forest lies the land of ten thousand mountains and rivers.

The land of ten thousand mountains and rivers has not changed since ancient times. Perhaps this place has always been too mysterious for people of any era, even in Fang Lin’s memory from ancient times to the Nine Countries Seven Seas era, it remains unchanged.

This time, Fang Lin intended to cross the Savage Western Forest to enter the land of ten thousand mountains and rivers directly.

As for the reason to go to the land of ten thousand mountains and rivers, Fang Lin wanted to verify some things and find out if that ancient cave was still there.

Returning to ancient times, Fang Lin had encountered many secrets and gained a deeper understanding of the murals once seen in the ancient cave in the land of ten thousand mountains and rivers.

Fang Lin speculated that perhaps the murals in the cave were left by Xuanyuan Ya, but whether all of them were left by Xuanyuan Ya, Fang Lin could not be sure.

If Fang Lin could find that ancient cave in this era, many things could be explained, but if not, then this journey would be meaningless to him.

The Savage Western Forest is vast and is a gathering place for the Demon Beast clan. Human Warriors rarely enter this place to avoid conflict with the Demon Beast clan.

Fang Lin did not wish to encounter the Demon Beast clan, so he restrained his aura as he flew over the Savage Western Forest, trying not to be detected by the Demon Beast clan’s strong individuals.

However, despite his efforts, Fang Lin was discovered by a Demon Beast expert in the Savage Western Forest.

BOOM!!!

A black beast claw shot up into the sky attempting to intercept the soaring Fang Lin.

Fang Lin frowned. He didn’t want to provoke the Demon Beast clan’s experts but had still run into them, leaving him with no choice.

He pushed out a palm to meet the black beast claw. Instantly, Fang Lin’s body slightly trembled, and the black beast claw disintegrated and scattered.

"I mean no offense, I hope the Demon Clan’s experts will not obstruct me," Fang Lin said loudly. Since he had already been discovered, there was no point in hiding. He released his own imposing aura.

Immediately, several waves of Demon Qi emanated from the Savage Western Forest, among which several were quite extraordinary.

Fang Lin’s expression changed slightly. It seemed these Demon Beast experts in the Savage Western Forest were going to cause trouble for him.

"Human, trespassing on our land, do you not know the rules?" A deep voice echoed.

Fang Lin pondered briefly and understood, shaking his head with some helplessness. In this era, the Demon Clan and the Human Clan were not like in later generations; now the Human Clan was clearly stronger than the Demon Beast clan. Moreover, with the presence of Martial Lords Mo Shouhe and Fang Qingye, the Demon Beast clan could not hold their heads up before the Human Clan.

Therefore, the Demon Beast clan was extremely wary of the Human Clan. Whenever humans were near their territory, it would alarm many Demon Beasts.

Simply put, the Demon Beast clan often overreacted due to excessive fear of humans.

Human experts indeed sometimes needed to pass through the Demon Beast clan’s territory but didn’t want to conflict with them, so they had to offer some benefits, like a toll fee.

"I understand the rules," Fang Lin said as he patted his waist and took out several treasures from his Nine Palace Bag.

These treasures were found in the Ancient Wilderness battlefield and were of no great use to him, so giving them to the Demon Beast clan was no big deal.

"As long as you understand the rules, leave the items, and you can pass," the deep voice sounded again, with less vigilance.

Fang Lin tossed down the treasures in his hand and flew toward the land of ten thousand mountains and rivers.

Unexpectedly, several strands of Demon Qi rushed up, intending to take what Fang Lin had given and still try to stop him.

"Do you really think I have no temper?" Fang Lin was annoyed. He had not wanted conflict with the Demon Beasts here, but they kept provoking him, leaving him no choice.

BOOM!!!

A massive Bone Demon appeared, landing directly in the Savage Western Forest, causing a commotion below.

"A Bone Demon! A Bone Demon!"

"How could there be a Bone Demon here?"

"Who exactly is this person?"

····

The Bone Demon is comparable to an Immortal pinnacle expert. While the Demon Beasts in the Savage Western Forest had many powerful individuals, none could withstand a Heavenly Mandate expert like the Bone Demon.

"Ungrateful!" cursed Fang Lin, as he retrieved the Bone Demon with a wave of his hand, and then picked up the treasures he had dropped.

The Demon Beasts in the Savage Western Forest dared not say anything more, cowed by the presence of the Bone Demon.
