2012 Shenyou Continent 1
All the secret guards of the Shadow Door had chosen to remain in the Saint Divine Land, dedicating themselves to protecting its people.

In the company of Fu Bao, Zhou Huaijin found himself alone. Gu Chaoyan, accompanied by Sword One, Lingyun, Wu Ziming, and Fu Huarong, faced a dilemma as she contemplated whether she should bring all of them along to Shenyou Continent.

Noticing Gu Chaoyan’s furrowed brows, Zhou Huaijin offered a reassuring reminder. “When we visited Shenyou Continent and obtained the fragment of the Golden Rolls, Mother and Mr. Zhao mentioned that they had acquired it through an official competition. It shouldn’t pose any danger. I’ve made sure to prepare the authority token and heart-protecting pills for your return, so everything should go smoothly.”

Gu Chaoyan couldn’t help but feel worried, her gaze fixed on Zhou Huaijin. She was both surprised and, at the same time, found it to be quite normal. After all, Huaijin seemed to possess an omnipotent presence. Even without spiritual roots or cultivation, he could navigate and safeguard himself in this tumultuous world, as well as protect the lives of the people in the Saint Divine Land. He had accomplished feats that she herself would find challenging.

“Very well, let’s venture to Shenyou Continent together,” Gu Chaoyan asserted with confidence.

Zhou Huaijin nodded in agreement.

In truth, Zhou Huaijin had already received some reliable information. Rumors circulated that the Teleportation Gate had been undergoing changes, its power gradually diminishing. Eventually, it would no longer require a certain cultivation level or the assistance of Heart Protection Pills for safe usage. Instead, anyone would be able to travel to other continents through the Teleportation Gate when it reached a certain weakened state.

The weakening of the teleportation gate was directly linked to the opening of the enchantment door. Despite this, they still relied on heart-protecting pills, just to be cautious. Given that none of them, except for Chaoyan, possessed a high level of cultivation, they couldn’t afford to take any chances.

After consuming the heart-protecting pills, they stepped through the teleportation gate, arriving at Shenyou Continent. Upon their arrival, they immediately felt an extraordinary sense of comfort. The thick and pervasive Spirit Qi permeating the air made the few of them feel as if they were in an entirely different realm compared to the Saint Divine Land.

However, Zhou Huaijin remained unaffected. Whether in the Shenyou Continent or the Saint Divine Land, he experienced no discernible difference.

As Gu Chaoyan marveled at the sights of Shenyou Continent, Zhou Huaijin chimed in, “The Shenyou Continent is ten times larger than both the Yuehua Continent and the Saint Divine Land.”

“….”

“There are only cultivation sects in the Yuehua Continent. To be more specific, the Yuehua Continent is more like a cultivation sect that has to hide from the world. The Saint Divine Land is a human country with no cultivation, so it’s not worth mentioning.”

“….”

“As for the Shenyou Continent, apart from the existence of the Shenyou Dynasty, there are also powerful sects and family clans.”

“….”

“The royal family of the Shenyou Dynasty is also cultivating.”

“….”

“However, we’re only here to retrieve the fragments of the Golden Rolls. There’s no need to worry too much about this.”

“….”

“In addition, the intermediate letter between Mother and Mr. Zhao said…”
