He saw the Dadui archway, steady as the gateway to a world, yet there was no protection around it, allowing anyone to approach at will.

Just by approaching and feeling the aura, he realized that the Dadui recorded was indeed terrifying.

The entire Divine Dynasty had disappeared, yet it could still appear now. Such divine might was beyond his comprehension.

He headed north, preparing to take a look at Jinlan Mountain.

He hadn't obtained much information, as the giant shark demon from back then had died too tragically.

After death, its corpse must now be spread across the entire land, making it impossible to find what he was looking for in a short time.

But like Jellyfish Bald, he easily found the information on Xi Yang.

He planned to temporarily give up searching for treasures and deal with the remnants of the rebellious saints first.

Of course, not now. For now, he just sought out information, wanting to see for himself first.

As he traveled north, he soon saw the endless locust forest stretching from east to west, feeling the terrifying aura brought by countless hungry ghosts gathering.

Looking up, the divine glow in his eyes became ethereal and mysterious, and his face turned somewhat pale.

In his gaze, the world seemed to fracture, and where the locust forest stood, it was like an abyss.

Not an abyss that sunk down, but a massive Black Mountain, towering high, yet giving him the feeling of staring into an abyss.

His power seemed to resist, no, to fear.

The thing they sacrificed to nowadays, all feared approaching here.

The power within him seemed somewhat out of control, wanting to escape his body and run away quickly.

He was drenched in cold sweat, trembling all over, with a faint red divine glow continually flickering on his skin.

He closed his eyes, calmed his mind, and took a long time to stabilize himself again.

When he opened his eyes, he acutely sensed he was being targeted.

There was a feeling as if any reckless movement would lead to his immediate death, like a sword was already pressed against his forehead, ready to see his brain the next moment.

He strained to turn his neck, looking toward the northwest.

Only then did he see a solitary courtyard at the edge of the locust forest.

A man with a cold demeanor walked out from the courtyard, looking in his direction.

Just one look made his eyes sting, feeling like his entire being was pierced.

Fish Bone Bald couldn't endure anymore and collapsed to the ground with a thud, shivering as he said.

"I... I... I..."

For half a moment, he couldn't muster the courage to say "I mean no harm, just passing by," something he couldn't even deceive himself with.

It eventually became a desperate groan.

"Spare me..."

Because he had seen Han Dong centuries ago.

In the deep sea.

Back then, they were sailing under the sea surface, coincidentally during the time to repair and maintain the ship's interior.

They were hiding in a less deep seabed crevice.

Then suddenly, the sea split open, cracking a terrifying fissure tens of miles wide, stretching thousands of miles.

Whistling Sword Qi, like a tangible object, forcibly cleaved the sea.

Standing on the deck, they could see the walls of water on both sides like the sky.

And with just a little bit of force impacting them, the entire ship was nearly torn apart, the strength accumulated over a hundred years depleted in an instant.

Then they saw Han Dong walking through the air, with a substantial murderous aura enveloping him like a king, closely following behind.

A gigantic Fierce Beast, reputed to have the strongest defense, entirely covered in armor, and measuring three thousand zhang in size, shattered like paper, tumbling and breaking in the Sword Qi River.

Throughout, this Sword Cultivator, whose murderous aura alone could kill, seemed to still be using a slightly weaker sword.

Clearly, they didn't dare to seek an explanation from the bloodthirsty Han Dong and could only watch him depart, each like a quail, not daring to make any noise.

Now, just with one glance, upon feeling targeted, the familiar Sword Intent left Fish Bone Bald with no courage to resist even a bit.

Only able to lie on the ground, admitting defeat, hoping this ruthless person would, like last time, be too lazy to bother with them.

They had indeed encountered many strong figures in the deep sea, but with such a heavy killing aura and so powerful a Sword Cultivator, they indeed had met only one.

Han Dong stepped out of the courtyard, slowly walking to Fish Bone Bald, examining him, eyebrows slightly furrowed.

Unrecognized, yet the aura felt strange, vaguely familiar as if he had seen something like it before.

He recalled for a long while, unable to remember ever crossing paths with these people, though he vaguely sensed a familiar aura.

"From the deep sea?"

As soon as he spoke, Fish Bone Bald shivered, his heart turning cold.

He dared not conceal anything, responding honestly.

"Yes, from the deep sea, I've seen you before when you killed that Jia Bone Fierce Beast."

"What are people from the deep sea doing here?" Han Dong did not understand.

At this moment, his wife came out of the courtyard and waved at him.

"It's time to eat, Ziyu brought some things, quickly have it while it's hot.

Leave that guy to Ziyu, don't overstep."

Han Dong replied with an "Oh," suddenly realizing that even though this person came from the deep sea, he wasn't there for him.

He had no enemies in the deep sea.

There, whether those with a grudge against him, Fierce Beasts, or Great Demons, as long as they had fought, they were all dead.
