It was evening, and the sun was setting.

The last speck of glow was slowly hiding behind the thick clouds. The warm orange color spread across the sky as if it had painted the entire sky with a layer of golden.

In the God-Killing Tumulus, it was really rare to have such bright and pretty scenery.

But below the place where heaven and earth connected, it was covered with a faint shadow. Even the remaining glow of the light couldn’t shine into it. From afar, it seemed like a patch of black that had been dark for a long time and had a certain cold aura.

Gradually, Chu Liuyue realized that the black color seemed to be continuously expanding.

The previous loud sound seemed to have come from there. If one said it was the thunder, it didn’t seem like it.

With such a long distance between them, it faintly sounded unreal.

“What’s… that?” Chu Liuyue tightly knitted her brows. This aura… really seems amiss.

Chu Ning suddenly said, “That’s a wall.”

Chu Liuyue was dazed and turned around. “Wall?”

Chu Ning nodded, his eyes staring at that patch of black solemnly. “That’s right. I’ve previously seen this wall twice. This is the third time.”

As he spoke, Chu Ning raised his hand and pointed at the left and right sides of the patch of black. “The wall will start from this end and spread to the other end. After 15 minutes, it will occupy the entire horizon that we can see.”

Chu Liuyue looked in the direction he was pointing and realized that the patch of black was indeed quickly spreading to the two sides.

At this point, she could indeed see that it was vaguely a wall.

It was entirely black, and it looked stern, solemn, and hard to climb.

Before Chu Liuyue approached it, she could seemingly already feel the murderous aura from it!

She secretly knitted her brows. Such an intense aura… definitely didn’t come from nowhere.

“Father, how often does this wall appear? Did it suddenly appear the previous two times?”

Chu Ning shook his head.

“Its appearance timing isn’t fixed. To this day, I’ve only seen it thrice. Besides, my body and mental state weren’t great previously, so I didn’t pay much attention to it. I only know that every time, it will appear when the sun sets and disappear when the sun is up. It will never appear during daytime.”

He paused and added, “The first time I saw this wall, I was just brought here not too long ago. At that time, I thought that I could leave this place if I climbed over this wall, so I tried my best to walk over. But before I could reach it, it directly disappeared when the sun came up.”

“Later on, I realized that it had nothing to do with whether I could go out, so I didn’t pay much attention to it.”

Chu Liuyue nodded in understanding.

It looked near but was actually far away—even though that wall didn’t seem especially far from here. But if one really wanted to go to it, they probably had to spend quite a bit of effort.

However, why would a wall suddenly emerge in this place? This God-Killing Tumulus was really strange in too many places…

Just as she planned to observe the changes silently, a stone suddenly jumped out from the Cosmic Ring and landed beside Chu Liuyue.

Chu Liuyue lowered her head.

That stone rolled further to the front.

Chu Liuyue raised her high brows, but her feet didn’t move.

Very quickly, the second rock jumped out, hit her leg, and rolled forward. This time, it rolled a further distance from the first, yet the direction was the same—toward the wall near the horizon!

When the third rock also jumped out, Chu Liuyue finally said, “You want me to go over?”

The rocks couldn’t speak, but their series of actions was very obvious.

Chu Liuyue stroked her chin.

She knew that they wouldn’t harm her. Since they desperately wanted to urge her to go over, there must be a reason.

Seeing this scene from the side, shock flashed across Chu Ning’s eyes.

Actually, he had previously heard Chu Liuyue briefly explain the whereabouts of these rocks. Besides, when Chu Liuyue went against the man in black, he had also clearly seen the shocking strength within the rock.

But now that he saw it again, he could not help but be amazed.

Rong Xiu’s lips curled up slightly, and he said, “It seems like they really want you to go over.”

Chu Liuyue spread her arms and smiled helplessly. “I can tell that too, but that is indeed far. I can’t detect anything now.”

In these kinds of places, the unknown usually spelled danger.

“If it’s really dangerous, we can just retreat then. Since we can see this wall, Senior Shangguan should be able to see it too. Perhaps… he will appear there and wait to gather with us.”

Rong Xiu’s words made Chu Liuyue’s eyes light up. Oh right, I had almost forgotten about that!

In the vast desert that had no boundaries, all the scenery was the same at first glance. If one didn’t have experience, it would be hard to differentiate the direction, let alone find a person. That was indeed akin to finding a needle in a haystack.

If Ancestor is safe now, he will very likely do that. Chu Liuyue came to a decision. “Then, let’s go over and take a look.”

It will naturally be best if we can reach before daybreak and find Ancestor. If we can’t not… we can just think of another method.

Actually, Chu Liuyue did not dare to harbor much hope. That was because the wall by the horizon continuously extended on both sides!

The more it did, the more ground it covered. With that, the chances of successfully meeting Shangguan Jing would become slimmer.

But even if it was just a hint of hope, Chu Liuyue didn’t want to give up.

She put away her rocks and walked forward.

…

At the same time, Shangguan Jing walked toward the wall.

He had already walked for very, very long. After exhausting most of his strength, he only shortened a small distance.

He clearly felt that the wall was before him, but he couldn’t touch it no matter what. Luckily, it wasn’t his first time here, nor his first time encountering such a situation. Hence, he had always been very stable and just continuously went forward.

Calculating the time, Yue’er and the rest should’ve also seen this wall… However, I don’t know if they are on my side or the opposite side. It’s fine if we’re on the same side, but if they’re on the opposite… It will be even harder to meet them.

Shangguan Jing paused in his tracks, took a deep breath in, and calmed himself down before he continued walking forward.

…

The last speck of glow gradually dissipated.

The evening curtain finally fell.

In the dark, one’s vision would naturally become weaker, especially on a night with no moon or stars. However, the strange thing was that Chu Liuyue could clearly see the black wall.

It was a different type of black—intense, solemn, stern, yet unreachable.

It silently stood between heaven and earth as if it had existed for more than a million years.
