On the way afterwards, through Song Yun’s explanation, Chu Feng also learned the specific details.
The world where the Asura Burial Ground was located was named the Burial Ground World.
Although the Burial Ground World contained the most feared forbidden land in the entire Jiuhun Heavenly River, the Asura Burial Ground.
In reality, the Burial Ground World had an owner.
Its owner was the Black Evil Old Demon.
This Black Evil Old Demon possessed extremely powerful boundary techniques, and his cultivation was also not to be underestimated. In the whole Jiuhun Heavenly River, he was a figure that inspired terror at the mere mention of his name. Few dared to become his enemy.
There were even rumours that even the overlord of the Jiuhun Heavenly River, the Jiuhun Saint Clan, had to show this Black Evil Old Demon some respect.
Precisely because the Black Evil Old Demon was so domineering, although the Burial Ground World could be freely entered and exited, many areas had been claimed by him as his own. Those places were restricted zones that no one was allowed to enter.
Among the places occupied by the Black Evil Old Demon was one called the Breeding Forest, and the Holy Healing Pearl that Song Yun needed to cure her illness was located right inside the Breeding Forest.
Normally, the Breeding Forest was guarded by boundary formations. As soon as anyone approached, the Black Evil Old Demon would detect it, making it impossible to enter and retrieve anything.
However, in recent days, an opportunity had finally arisen to enter the Breeding Forest.
The reason stemmed from the fact that the Black Evil Old Demon had a granddaughter. Although he himself was a vicious and evil figure, it was said that his granddaughter was a beauty of celestial level.
The Black Evil Old Demon was not only skilled in boundary techniques but also fond of them. Therefore, he believed that his granddaughter’s husband must also be a junior proficient in boundary techniques.
Thus, the Black Evil Old Demon was holding this marriage recruitment contest in the Burial Ground World.
The final winner of the contest would become the husband of his granddaughter.
For this purpose, the Black Evil Old Demon had invited many renowned junior world spiritists from the Jiuhun Heavenly River.
Apart from the invited world spiritists, other world spiritists could participate if interested, but they had to pass a screening process to obtain a contest slot.
And the location for that screening was precisely the Breeding Forest.
This was why Song Yun needed Chu Feng’s help. Once inside the Breeding Forest, martial power could not be used, only boundary techniques.
Song Yun’s boundary techniques were clearly no match for those boundary technique geniuses, but with Chu Feng’s assistance, she would have much greater confidence.
…
After travelling for some time, Chu Feng and Song Yun finally arrived smoothly in the Burial Ground World.
Although the Burial Ground World had a fearsome reputation, in truth, it was no different from other worlds. It had high mountains, plains, rivers, lakes, and seas, everything one would expect.
Chu Feng and Song Yun headed straight for the Breeding Forest. Along the way, apart from some beautiful scenery, they passed at least several hundred massive abysses rising from the surface.
If there was any difference between the Burial Ground World and other worlds, those enormous abysses would count as one.
Other worlds also had abysses, but none as densely packed as in the Burial Ground World.
As they hurried along, Chu Feng and Song Yun drew ever closer to the Breeding Forest.
Yet suddenly, Chu Feng stopped. His gaze turned towards the southwest.
Eventually, his eyes settled on a distant abyss.
That abyss also rose from the surface. Its opening was less than ten thousand metres in diameter, surrounded by dense weeds, and its depths were unfathomable.
Along the journey, Chu Feng had seen countless such abysses, even dozens more spectacular than this one. Yet only this abyss made him pause and observe.
Because the moment Chu Feng saw it, he was almost certain that the abyss before him was none other than the infamous Asura Burial Ground.
“Is that the Asura Burial Ground?”
Although he already had a hunch, Chu Feng still wanted confirmation from Song Yun.
“The Asura Burial Ground? It shouldn’t be.”
Song Yun shook her head repeatedly. This was her first time here too, but in her view, something as notoriously fearsome as the Asura Burial Ground should appear extremely terrifying. Yet the abyss Chu Feng pointed to looked utterly ordinary.
Not to mention associating it with the Asura Burial Ground felt mismatched, even calling it a ruin or an ordinary burial site would be hard to believe.
Still, Song Yun took out her map. Upon opening it and checking, her beautiful eyes instantly widened.
“My Brother Chu Feng, you are amazing. How did you know that was the Asura Burial Ground?”
Song Yun was utterly shocked, because the map clearly marked that the abyss Chu Feng indicated was indeed the renowned Asura Burial Ground.
“Just intuition.”
“Little girl, wait here for me. I want to go over and take a look.”
Chu Feng said.
“Don’t go. Are you mad? Didn’t I tell you those Asura evil spirits have the ability to captivate souls? If you get close, they will control you.”
Song Yun strongly tried to dissuade him.
But Chu Feng only smiled faintly, signalling her not to worry.
“Relax, little girl. I know my limits. I won’t get too close.”
After saying this, Chu Feng leaped forward, heading towards the Asura Burial Ground.
Swish—
However, before Chu Feng could approach, a figure suddenly blocked his path.
It was an elderly man with white hair, wearing a world spiritist robe.
“Who goes there, daring to approach the Asura Burial Ground?”
The old man coldly sized up Chu Feng. His gaze suggested that if Chu Feng said anything wrong, he would kill him immediately.
“Senior, this junior has come to participate in the marriage recruitment contest.”
“But having long heard of the Asura Burial Ground’s fame, I wished to observe it from closer up.”
Chu Feng said, cupping his fist.
This old man had appeared silently before him, so his strength must far surpass Chu Feng’s. Moreover, since he was blocking the way, he was likely a subordinate of the Black Evil Old Demon. In both emotion and reason, Chu Feng should treat him with courtesy.
“Observe from closer up? Since you’ve heard of the Asura Burial Ground’s reputation, do you not know its dangers?”
“Hurry and leave. Stay far away from here. If you wish to join the marriage recruitment contest, go first to the Cloud Mist Forest to register. If you qualify to enter, then strive hard. If not, leave quickly.”
“This is the Burial Ground World. It is not a place for you to sightsee.”
The old man waved his hand and turned to leave.
“Senior, the world spirit with whom this junior has contracted comes from the Asura Spirit World.”
“Therefore, I hold a special affection for the Asura Spirit World.”
“This junior also knows the Asura Burial Ground is a perilous place, but I only wish to observe it from closer up. I will not do anything excessive.”
Chu Feng said.
“Oh, you are an Asura world spiritist?”
At this moment, the old man’s gaze towards Chu Feng changed somewhat. His attitude was no longer as harsh as before.
“Even if I let you pass, you cannot. Ahead is a boundary formation. Unless Lord Black Evil opens it, no one can cross.”
“However, if you truly have interest in this Asura Burial Ground, then strive to obtain a slot for the marriage recruitment contest in the Cloud Mist Forest.”
After saying this, the old man flickered and vanished.
“Obtain a slot for the marriage recruitment contest?”
“What does that mean? Could obtaining a slot allow entry into the Asura Burial Ground?”
“No way. The Asura Burial Ground is so dangerous. Who would dare enter?”
Song Yun walked up to Chu Feng. Although she had been far away earlier, she had clearly heard the conversation between Chu Feng and the old man.
