Chapter 877: Encountering Another High Pass (4)
After doing all this, he rushed in the direction that Goatee had pointed at.
However, before he left, his divine soul moved slightly. Everyone present fell to the ground and lost their breath.
If these people didn’t die before they became Mindful Deities, they wouldn’t become Mindful Deities, so Xu Bai wasn’t worried about anything else.
They flew in the air and rushed in that direction.
Only then did Xu Bai realize that the ruins this time were really huge. He had flown for two hours, but he still hadn’t reached the place he had planned to go.
However, it wasn’t as if he had gained nothing.
The level of these seven books was not high. In this two hours, he had already finished all of them. Unfortunately, they were all mental cultivation techniques, and these seven books did not even increase by 0.1.
Xu Bai felt a toothache, especially when he thought of the various problems with the mental cultivation method. He was even more speechless.
“Let’s hope that we’ll gain something this time.”
After flying for nearly the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, a huge building finally appeared in front of them.
This was a city that looked a little rundown, and there were two people guarding the city gate.
There was no plaque, and he didn’t even know the name of the city.
Xu Bai descended from the sky and casually changed his appearance and body shape before walking toward the city.
As he got closer, he could feel the smell of blood in the entire city.
In such an apocalyptic environment, killing was inevitable.
Those who could enter this city alive and successfully join the Power-Destroying Pavilion had experienced more killings.
Xu Bai slowly walked to the city gate. There were two guards at the gate, each holding a different weapon.
“Token.”
These two simple words were spoken in an extremely indifferent tone. It was as if they were going to attack Xu Bai if he couldn’t hand over the token.
Xu Bai took out the token from his waist and waved it in front of the two guards.
The two guards looked at each other. One of the guards said to Xu Bai,”Are you alone?”
“I’m alone,” Xu Bai said with a smile.”
“Alright.” “Just follow me.””
The guard turned around and led the way.
Xu Bai didn’t know what she meant, but he still followed her into the city.
After entering, he realized that this city was completely different from what he had imagined.
There was a wide street inside. Although the street was not cleaned and was covered in dust, there were stalls on both sides of the street.
The difference between this place and the human world was that the stalls here were all for the trade.
The stall owners were also people in the industry.
There were no ordinary people here. Ordinary people would have died long ago in such an environment.
Along the way, the guard did not speak, and Xu Bai was idle and did not speak either.
After walking for a while, a rather imposing building appeared in front of them. The guard came to the door and pointed inside.
“Report inside and see where you will be assigned.”
“Excuse me, what places are there?” Xu Bai asked with a smile.”
The guard didn’t answer. Instead, he stretched out his hand.”If you want me to answer questions, you need to give me resources.”
“Pills, weapons, or anything else, as long as it can help me increase my strength, I’m fine with it.”
Xu Bai raised his eyebrows.
He seemed to understand that in this world, resources seemed to have become a kind of trading item. The so-called resources were things that could allow people to live and increase their strength.
It was not limited to pills or weapons.
But Xu Bai didn’t.
He thought that he had made a mistake just now. He should have casually taken some weapons and lived a better life here.
Seeing that Xu Bai did not answer, the guard chuckled. He knew that Xu Bai did not have any resources, so he turned around and left.
Xu Bai didn’t stop him. He looked at the building behind him and thought for a moment before walking in.
Inside the building was a vast courtyard. From time to time, people would walk around in the courtyard.
As soon as he stepped in, Xu Bai could smell the thick smell of blood. Everyone here had that smell. Clearly, everyone had experienced some battle or slaughter not long ago.
No one paid attention to him. He thought carefully for a moment and was about to pull someone over to ask.
But unexpectedly, a voice came from behind him.
“New here?”
Xu Bai was very familiar with this voice.
He turned around and looked at the man in white with a complicated expression.
—High Pass.
He didn’t expect to see him again. It was indeed unexpected. He still remembered that Gao Guan had found the old man before he turned into the Mindfulness God in the ruins. He wanted to drag the old man into death and enforce justice on behalf of the heavens.
However, it did not succeed in the end. It was Xu Bai who used the divine technique to lure Liu Qingfeng over and killed him.
Now that he suddenly saw him, Xu Bai knew what time it was. It was definitely before Gao Guan went to that mountain.
In other words, the current resources had not been exhausted to a certain extent. It would not be like before, where everyone would think of ways to survive.
From this, it could be inferred that the Power-Destroying Pavilion might have failed in the end. From what Gao Guan said, it seemed that he was a member of the Power-Destroying Pavilion. There must be a reason why he went to that mountain in the end.
Gao Guan was still dressed in his white robe and tall hat. When he saw that Xu Bai was ignoring him, he thought that Xu Bai was in a daze. He could not help but ask,”Newcomer, it’s very difficult for you to survive in this world in this state.”
