For Yu Ziqing, the benefits of the Jade Tablet are plentiful, but naturally, there are also downsides.

Now they have appeared, because all matters that are considered unimportant yet can entertain people will inevitably be widely spread through the Jade Tablet.

Those Saints disciples obtained the intelligence they thought was the hardest to probe in an unexpectedly simple way.

The process is no longer important; what is important is that the Saints disciples now know who to look for.

That year, a sixty-four-sided crystal experienced a series of ordeals in the deep sea and was swallowed by the giant shark demon.

Meanwhile, on land, there were rumors of Immortal Herbs, coupled with news of the disappearance of the Peeling overlord, leading to significant losses for some land powers, and friction among the great powers.

By a twist of fate, this giant shark demon thought it was the chance and even hung the Life Temple of the Peeling overlord on its waist as a trophy.

It was ultimately beaten to death near the coastline by the furious Peeling overlord.

Moreover, because of the existence of this alien species, Yu Ziqing, he raided the intestines of the giant shark demon, transforming what should have been unnoticed stool with the Mixed Yuan Gold Bowl into organic yellow soil...

And thus obtained the sixty-four-sided crystal.

Yu Ziqing has always been curious why the giant shark demon's belly had such bizarre things.

He is probably about to get an answer.

Those crazy Saints disciples, in a state of rational yet insane, are now targeting Xi Yang and Jinlan Mountain.

Even though they didn't initially focus on Jinlan Mountain to find the sixty-four-sided crystal, the result turned out this way.

Jellyfish Bald didn't stay on Minghu Island for many days before deciding to explore the land.

Although in their concept, the land was particularly dangerous, now, the amount of information was overwhelming.

Jellyfish Bald felt that it doesn't seem as dangerous as described in their acquired knowledge.

The Saints disciples split into two factions long ago.

One faction is genuinely dedicated to serving the Deities, gaining power through the bestowed grace.

The other faction intends to fulfill the ancestors' will, controlling their sacrificial targets to gain power and advance through sacrificial techniques and rituals.

There is an irreconcilable conflict between the two factions, although they both call themselves Saints disciples and consider themselves orthodox.

Clashing upon meeting, fighting endlessly is the norm until one side is utterly obliterated, and it never ceases.

Jellyfish Bald and others belong to the controlling faction walking on a tightrope, but they believe theirs is the righteous path, considering waiting for grace like beggars as regressing history.

If you want something, go control it, go take it.

As long as sacrificial techniques and rituals are correctly performed, with all steps and materials accurate, the thoughts of the controlled target are the least important factor.

The Saints disciples have been wandering the deep sea for a very long time, and Jellyfish Bald remembers records in the classics describing the danger level of the Four-Direction Land.

Long ago, a peak group of Saints disciples performed a blood sacrifice of an entire ancient race, preparing to forcibly advance to the Tenth Tier.

The Dadui Divine Dynasty merely dispatched the City Lord of a single city to annihilate those Saints disciples.

Many grave consequences followed, even the Sacrificial God disappeared.

For such Deities, so-called disappearance can actually be interpreted as death.

Jellyfish Bald still vaguely remembers the fear of the recorder that he could feel clearly from those writings when he first saw those records as a youth inside a ship's cabin.

Now that he's near the Four-Direction Land, he learned that the once terrifying Dadui had long been gone, so long that Dadui is about to return.

Why had no one informed him of such news before?

Logically, this shouldn't have been a secret long ago, right?

Jellyfish Bald sat on the back of a shark used for transportation, feeling quite conflicted.

Did the High Priest conceal such information? Why would he hide this?

Or did even the High Priest not know? Impossible, in the past millennia, they've occasionally encountered people in the deep sea.

Though most cultivators venturing into the deep sea are particularly powerful.

There are still powerful beings able to communicate with them.

Jellyfish Bald grew increasingly confused, uncertain of how to express "the era has changed, and they cannot keep pace with it."

When he got near the coastline, he was extremely tense because he heard that the strong figure who beat the giant shark demon to death was nearby.

Along the way, he exercised utmost caution, using his abilities and knowledge to avoid crowds, fearful of being exposed.

He is still trying to learn the language of the Four-Direction Land, its customs, and common sense, oh, and forget the phrase "Four-Direction Land," otherwise, anyone knowledgeable would realize he comes from afar once he speaks.

No one here calls this vast land the Four-Direction Land anymore.

Jellyfish Bald racked his brains for a month and still wandered near the coastline.

Another person, Fish Bone Bald, was also caught up in a bewildering mood.

Because everything here differed greatly from his prior teachings, some aspects were downright subversively different.

But he doesn't overthink like Jellyfish Bald, remaining aware of what he needs to do.

He aimed to find the things taken away by the giant shark demon.

Hence, in a desperate pursuit of information, understanding everything about the land, every day he clutches over twenty Jade Tablets to listen, greedily absorbing everything, and finally, he arrived at the Wilderness.
