Chapter 487: Gu Lingyun!

Yang Tian gazed at the endless tide ahead, where multicolored treasures manifested and terrifying energy surged. The dazzling scene was filled with all kinds of mysterious artifacts.

Some people had already rushed forward like madmen, but before they could get close, they were instantly torn to shreds by the released energy.

"What terrifying artifacts!" His eyes narrowed as he stared at a feather, exceptionally bright, like a divine flame, extremely powerful, with an aura of supreme strength flowing around it.

"That leading one is a precious feather from the Vermilion Bird divine beast, very fearsome!" The pitch-black bird seemed quite familiar and recognized the feather's origin at a glance, explaining.

Rumble! Just as Yang Tian was watching, that divine tide stirred, erupting like a tornado, breaking through eternity, extremely terrifying.

"Let's go!" Yang Tian's eyelids twitched. Charging in with his physical body would be suicide.

"Run fast!" The pitch-black bird desperately grabbed Yang Tian's clothes. It was old and could barely fly anymore.

Heaven and earth trembled. It was a jade carriage, radiant with琉璃. This artifact was extremely fearsome, as if a deity sat inside, exuding an impulse that made all powerhouses want to worship.

"This must be the chariot of an ancient extraordinary hero!" Yang Tian's eyes narrowed. This artifact was extraordinary; with a slight tremor, heaven and earth shook, and the sky seemed about to collapse.

"I've heard this is the jade carriage of an ancient divine dynasty prince, a very fearsome artifact." The black bird grabbed Yang Tian's clothes and explained.

The divine tide moved extremely fast. Some who ran too slowly were torn to pieces. From the pitch-black bird, Yang Tian learned that this divine tide consisted of remnants left by heroes who had entered the Dao God Mountain and died.

Every time the Dao God Mountain opened, the army of artifacts would form a tide, rampaging across the wilderness.

"Has no one tried to collect them? The artifacts here are enough to interest the giants of the cultivation world!" Yang Tian clicked his tongue. From ancient times to the present, how many treasures must there be!

"Well, some have tried before, but they all failed." The pitch-black bird scratched its bald head with its wing, then said somewhat excitedly, "Last time, some people joined forces and managed to collect a few artifacts."

The pitch-black bird now recalled with palpitations. It had lived for countless years, was nearing death, and had witnessed that great upheaval.

Many terrifying figures activated a peerless heavenly artifact and collected a large number of artifacts. Although it was just a drop in the ocean compared to the divine tide, it was still heart-shakingly numerous.

Yang Tian was repeatedly astonished. He moved extremely fast and had already distanced himself from the divine tide. Taking a deep breath, he watched the artifact army charging toward other areas and couldn't help but lick his dry lips.

"This is the regional map I know. I'll give it to you. These maps were drawn by me after the heaven and earth pattern changed." The pitch-black bird handed Yang Tian a crystalline jade slip, a trace of gratitude in its eyes. If not for this young man taking it away earlier, it would have been hard to escape.

Taking the jade slip from the black bird, Yang Tian hesitated for a moment, then took out a jade bottle and said slowly, "This is for you. Farewell."

With that, Yang Tian's figure instantly disappeared, leaving the black bird somewhat dazed.

"A powerful human youth, yet I can't see even a trace of cultivation. Am I old?" The big black bird shook its bald head and slowly opened the jade bottle.

As soon as the jade bottle was opened, an extremely strong life force surged out. The big black bird looked at the three milky-white divine liquids inside and exclaimed, "Earth Core Milk! Such vigorous life force!"

Without any hesitation, it swallowed them instantly. Its whole body glowed, and its dark feathers emitted radiance. Its extremely weak life force rapidly strengthened.

Leaving this area, Yang Tian glanced at the map left by the big black bird, and his eyes lit up. The regions recorded here were exactly the same as the map in Yang Tian's hand.

"It seems this black bird is not ordinary." Yang Tian scratched his head. He had once interrogated for regional maps, but the range known by those creatures was extremely small, while this black bird's map covered dozens of regions.

Yang Tian exerted his full movement technique and headed toward the marked area. There were no living creatures in this place; all had fled to other regions.

Along the way, terrifying huge fissures were everywhere, and massive mountains had been severed, shocking the soul.

After a full hour of running, Yang Tian gradually slowed his pace. Just as he arrived at a stretch of verdant peaks, a terrifying gale suddenly burst toward him.

Seeing this, a cold glint appeared in Yang Tian's eyes, but there was also a hint of confusion. This energy felt very familiar, yet he couldn't recall it for the moment.

As his spine twisted, he abruptly turned and struck back with his palm. Heaven and earth trembled, and a waterfall of golden light shattered the gale.

Just as Yang Tian was puzzled, a slender jade finger descended from the sky, like a divine pillar, radiating holy light. It was terrifying and extremely powerful—a formidable martial technique.

Seeing this, Yang Tian's face instantly turned cold. A piercing murderous intent appeared in his eyes, and he said in his heart, word by word, "Gu Lingyun!"

Yang Tian could not be more familiar with this martial technique. In the past, when he first entered the martial path, he had nearly been crushed to death by one of Gu Lingyun's jade fingers, not to mention other encounters. He loathed this woman to the extreme.

"What a small world!" The cold light in Yang Tian's eyes grew more terrifying. Recalling that it was Gu Lingyun who had caused him to faint in the Li family ancestral land, his hatred for her was bone-deep.

Bang! He stomped his foot, and the earth rumbled. He leaped up like a roc soaring, his eyes blazing with murderous intent.

"Boom..." Yang Tian was extremely aggressive, charging like a primordial beast toward the jade finger. He swung his arm, unleashing immense power, tearing apart the martial technique in the void.

"Eh?" A surprised voice came from the void. A woman tightly wrapped in a black robe emerged. Her figure was curvaceous and extremely voluptuous; her full breasts were enough to attract anyone's gaze.

Gu Lingyun's expression was cold. She looked at the black-clad youth scanning her, a hint of pride in her beautiful eyes. She walked gracefully through the void, swaying her hips with astonishing allure.

"How has this woman changed so much?" Yang Tian thought, a strange look in his eyes, but the murderous intent in his heart grew more intense.

Just as Yang Tian was about to kill this woman, his mind suddenly tensed. He cast a covert glance at a white-clad, one-armed old man approaching from afar, and his expression instantly became interesting.

"It's that old bastard!" Recognizing the old man's face, Yang Tian couldn't help but laugh inwardly. This was the white-clad old man who had lost an arm to the formation in the Demon Fall Land back then.

"He's Gu Qi? How did they end up together?" Noticing a young man behind them, Yang Tian pursed his lips and vanished into the void, extremely elusive.

"Impossible!" Gu Lingyun's face changed color. The youth she had locked onto had disappeared, and she couldn't detect his trace at all.

Not far from Gu Lingyun, Yang Tian was hidden in a patch of void, wrapped in a layer of blood-red mist. He looked at the three people, a hint of unwillingness in his eyes.

Although that powerful elder had depleted his origin, Yang Tian and Xiao Qing would likely find it hard to defeat him. Even if they won by luck, it would attract even more people.

"Elder." Seeing the white-clad one-armed old man approaching, Gu Lingyun showed a trace of disgust but bowed respectfully.

"Tsk, this woman is getting more and more tempting..." Behind the one-armed old man, Gu Qi's eyes roamed over Gu Lingyun's curvaceous body, and he couldn't help swallowing.

"Mm, the Grand Elder and the others haven't arrived yet. Let's go in and wait for him." The one-armed old man looked at Gu Lingyun with an air of superiority, speaking somewhat meaningfully.

Hearing this, Gu Lingyun's body trembled slightly, but she didn't object. She followed the one-armed old man as he walked.

"That bitch, serving that old bastard!" Gu Qi gritted his teeth, a vicious thought in his mind.

"This makes it easier. You're alone now." Watching the two head toward a cave, Yang Tian's eyes showed a hint of contempt. That old bastard had somehow subdued Gu Lingyun.
