"So, there truly is a terrifying existence within the Ancient Forbidden Zone!" Lu Fan's expression turned grave. "If that's the case, I'm quite curious. I almost stepped into the Ancient Forbidden Zone last time!"
"You kid, you're courting death!"
Bi Yao repeatedly said, "The Ancient Forbidden Zone is not a place one can easily enter. If you were to go in, it would be certain death."
"I always feel like something inside is calling me!" Lu Fan said solemnly, "But it's a vague feeling."
"Calling you?"
Bi Yao chuckled, "Who do you think you are, Emperor of Heaven or King of Gods? Within this Desolate Ancient Forbidden Zone, ordinary cultivators like us cannot even see the path. Even those with great power might not be able to enter it."
"Is it truly that no one can come out of the Ancient Forbidden Zone?" Long Yi interjected, "After all these years."
"It's not entirely accurate to say no one can."
Bi Yao's expression was solemn, "It is said that hundreds of years ago, a peerless expert broke into the Ancient Forbidden Zone and managed to come out safely. The entire Eastern Domain was shaken at the time, filled with disbelief."
"So, someone has come out of the Ancient Forbidden Zone!"
Lu Fan's face lit up with surprise. "If that's true, it means the Desolate Ancient Forbidden Zone is accessible, it's just that our strength is not enough!"
"You can think of it that way, but in reality, we cannot enter!"
Bi Yao shook her head, "Even that formidable expert in the past eventually went completely mad. That's the consequence of intruding into the forbidden zone!"
"Even someone that powerful became like that?" Lu Fan's expression shifted.
"That's right!"
Bi Yao nodded slightly, "Otherwise, why would I try to stop you? The Ancient Forbidden Zone holds many treasures, but unfortunately, once you enter, strange things happen, things beyond imagination. Even the most powerful might not be able to retreat completely unscathed."
"What exactly are these strange occurrences?" Long Yi was quite curious, especially about the legends of the Ancient Forbidden Zone.
"I'm not entirely sure of the specifics, but one thing is certain. The Ancient Forbidden Zone is called a forbidden zone because it's inauspicious. To barge in recklessly is to invite disaster," Bi Yao stated frankly.
"Don't worry, Senior Sister Bi Yao,"
Lu Fan chuckled, "We would never do such a thing. After all, we still want to live."
Facing these words, Bi Yao smiled, "You guys don't have the guts. To enter this Ancient Forbidden Zone requires immense courage and great perseverance." Bi Yao said directly, "I remember a long time ago, there was a super formidable senior from the North Sea Academy who entered the Ancient Forbidden Zone. It caused a stir throughout the entire North Sea Academy at the time, and even powerful individuals from the White Dragon Dynasty came to observe. It's a pity that senior did not make it out in the end."
"That's truly a tragedy!" Long Yi was slightly surprised, his expression a little stiff.
"It is indeed a tragedy, but such tragedies are happening every day because many people don't believe the legends of the Ancient Forbidden Zone and often charge in." Bi Yao smiled, "The result of which is being trapped within the Ancient Forbidden Zone, silently enduring everything within the forbidden zone." Su Dan Novel Network
Lu Fan listened while asking, becoming increasingly interested. In fact, he had had many questions about the Ancient Forbidden Zone for a long time, and now being able to get some answers made him understand a lot.
Not long after, they arrived outside the spirit energy flying ship at North Sea City. Outside stood a huge flying ship, capable of carrying at least 100 people.
"Are you gentlemen intending to take the spirit energy flying ship?"
A man walked over and smiled, "Our spirit energy flying ships can soar into the sky and are incredibly fast. Where are you heading? You can tell me."
"We're going to Pill City!" Lu Fan said, "How many spirit stones will it cost?"
"It's not much, just ten spirit stones per person!" the man said, "There are quite a few people going to Pill City recently. Are you going to Pill City to participate in the Alchemist Competition?"
"You do your business, we'll do ours. Why are you prying into our affairs?" Bi Yao said lightly!
"I was just asking casually, I didn't mean anything else!" the man quickly replied, "Since you've arrived, please come inside. The ship will take off shortly and will head directly to Pill City!"
Bi Yao nodded slightly and didn't say more, directly pulling Lu Fan onto the ship. She seemed familiar with the process, her expression appearing indifferent.
"This flying ship is indeed large!" Long Yi exclaimed in shock, "It's even bigger than our airplanes."
"The most important thing is that it can hover like a sky lantern." Lu Fan said softly, "If this thing is unstable when it rises, won't everyone be smashed to pieces?"
"You kid, don't talk nonsense. These flying ships are extremely stable and generally nothing goes wrong. Moreover, there are experts guarding the ship, and if any situation arises, they will take action," Bi Yao stated directly.
"There's such a thing?" Long Yi was a bit surprised, "Why haven't I seen any other experts on this ship?"
"They are all inside the cabins. The reason the flying ship can fly is due to their spirit energy. Otherwise, how could this flying ship operate!" Bi Yao said directly, "The forces that can operate flying ships must have at least three or four Spirit King realm experts. This is also terrifying."
Lu Fan nodded slightly. He finally understood that there were always people better than you, and heavens beyond heavens. Just by taking a flying ship, he could feel the pressure.
Not long after, the flying ship finally started and in a flash, it ascended into the sky, soaring high above. It looked quite magnificent.
After reaching a certain altitude, the flying ship then headed in the direction of Pill City, its speed being extremely fast. However, Lu Fan and the others on the ship did not feel any discomfort. Instead, they felt relaxed, enjoying the gentle breeze.
"I really didn't expect this thing to be so cool!" Long Yi chuckled, "If only we had something like this on Earth before!"
"It's a pity this isn't Earth!" Lu Fan chuckled, "At such a speed, we should arrive at Pill City before long. Then we can go find some medicinal ingredients, as my alchemy skills have not yet reached the highest level."
"Actually, your alchemy skills are already quite good," Bi Yao said seriously, "So you don't need to be modest. When the real alchemy competition begins, you will surely make a name for yourself."
"Senior Sister Bi Yao has such high expectations of me. I'm actually a bit nervous," Lu Fan said with a wry smile, "If there's an opportunity, I will definitely not let down Senior Sister Bi Yao's expectations of me."
