527: Chapter 527 Chaos Between Humans and Ghosts

"Remote control..."

Lin Xiao looked up at the sky. Could it be that there were satellites up there?

A bold thought popped into his mind!

"Yaoyao, go to the Medicine King Hall and see if the heavenly troops are doing well. I have something to attend to and need to go out for a while."

Although Gu Zhiyao was puzzled, she didn't ask further; it wasn't in her nature to be meddlesome.

"Your Highness, please take care."

Lin Xiao nodded, then leaped into the air, using his internal energy to gain momentum in mid-air and continuously propelling himself upward.

"Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh," he kept shooting into the sky.

Although Lin Xiao wasn't an aerospace enthusiast, he knew that satellites were hundreds, or even thousands, of kilometers above the ground.

But this world wasn't the one he came from, so who knew? Maybe it wasn't that far?

Besides, as long as conditions allowed, it wasn't impossible to reach an altitude of thousands of kilometers; at worst, he would just have to keep climbing for a couple of days.

Anyway, he had the system shop; if he really couldn't make it, he could just pop some pills.

Even if he couldn't find any satellites, being able to look down and see the overall appearance of this world would be of great benefit for the future.

Lin Xiao thought to himself while exerting himself to climb higher.

Time passed bit by bit.

About half a day later, Lin Xiao was already above the vast cloud layer, looking down to see the expansive land and some oceans.

"Could it be that this is just the territory of Baiyue? To see the full view of the Tianwu Continent, I'm afraid it will take a few days?"

Lin Xiao didn't have time to complain and continued upward!

As his altitude continued to rise, his energy consumption increased significantly, and the wind blowing at high altitudes felt like blades.

The temperature had dropped to who knew how many degrees below zero, and breathing was basically impossible.

If not for his Indestructible Golden Body, Lin Xiao felt that even an Earth Immortal might not have been able to reach this height.

Feeling danger midway and fearing he might pass out, Lin Xiao simply popped a few Earth Grade medicinal pills.

Relying on the recovery and resistance provided by the pills, Lin Xiao climbed for another day.

When he looked down again, he could already see unfamiliar continental plates, vast oceans, and endless snowy regions...

"Huh? Could that be the legendary Endless Snow Mountains that no one has ever been able to set foot in?"

Looking at the vast whiteness north of Mobei, Lin Xiao felt that the area of the Endless Snow Mountains was larger than the entirety of Mobei and the Central Plains combined.

Even adding the Western Regions and the sixteen foreign nations, they couldn't compare to the vastness of that frozen world.

Could it be... that this world is experiencing an ice age?

What shocked Lin Xiao even more was that, even now, he still couldn't glimpse the full view of the world.

After hesitating for a moment, Lin Xiao gritted his teeth.

"Since I'm already here, I might as well keep going up!"

He popped another pill and kept climbing!

Two hours later, Lin Xiao felt his eyelids getting heavier and heavier, and his body began to break out in a cold sweat.

An indescribable sense of fatigue made him drowsy!?

"What's going on?"

"I clearly took the medicinal pills, so why can't I keep my energy up?"

Lin Xiao felt his heartbeat getting faster and faster; all his organs seemed to be sending out warning signals.

An ominous feeling made Lin Xiao instinctively feel fear!

Indestructible Diamond Body!

He didn't dare to hesitate and unleashed his life-saving skill.

But something terrifying happened to Lin Xiao!

It had very little effect!?

This skill, which had helped him defeat countless strong enemies, was actually unable to counter the current pain?!

The Laws of Heaven!?

This was the power of the Laws of Heaven, causing him harm!!

Once Lin Xiao realized this, he didn't dare to persist and hurriedly descended!

But even so, his body had already reached a critical point.

Lin Xiao's vision went black, and he lost consciousness...

His body fell from the high altitude like a fluttering leaf.

He didn't know how much time had passed, but when Lin Xiao opened his eyes, he heard the sound of rapid airflow in his ears.

He opened his eyes and suddenly discovered that below him was a huge city?!

He could even see the thousands of lights in the city with his naked eye.

"Damn it!"

Lin Xiao hurriedly mobilized his internal energy to stop himself in mid-air.

If he crashed down headfirst, he would probably create a "human crater"?!

Because it was nighttime, Lin Xiao found a rooftop to land on, and no one noticed him.

The architectural style of this city had a southern flair that Lin Xiao had never seen before; it looked a bit like Dan Province.

However, compared to the desolate Dan Province, this place was bustling with noise and excitement, filled with traffic and people, and was quite prosperous.

Lin Xiao glanced at the city gate in the distance, where the three characters "Dayue City" were clearly written!

"Dayue? Is this Baiyue's Yue Prefecture, the territory of Prince Wu, Liu Bing?"

Lin Xiao was dumbfounded; he had drifted all the way from the Medicine King Valley to the heart of Yue Prefecture.

Covering this distance with his light-foot skills would probably take two days.

"It looks like I won't be able to go back to the Medicine King Valley anytime soon."

Since he was already here, he might as well settle in.

Lin Xiao wasn't in a hurry to leave anymore; he changed his clothes, found a decent inn in the city, and settled in.

Lying in the superior room of the inn, Lin Xiao first checked his physical condition.

Although he had some internal injuries, fortunately, he had stopped the damage in time, and it wasn't a major issue.

"The Laws of Heaven..."

Lin Xiao shuddered when he recalled that terrifying moment.

Ever since he stepped into the realm of Great Grandmaster, he had been invincible in the human world, and after becoming an Earth Immortal, he felt even more that the world was within his grasp.

Until this moment, Lin Xiao realized clearly that in the eyes of the Laws of Heaven, he was still just an ant!

This time, it was fortunate that the damage was "chronic"; if the heavens had simply struck him with a "boom" of lightning, he wouldn't even know how he died!

"It seems I still need to be honest and obedient, first unify the world, save up enough Comprehension Ability points, and raise my cultivation to the Divine Realm before doing anything else."

Lin Xiao made up his mind; without absolute certainty, he wouldn't go on any more "space explorations."

However, this time was not without its gains; at least he had roughly seen a portion of the Tianwu Continent's appearance.

This place was truly not the planet he was familiar with.

And the scope of his activities was still relatively small; the Endless Snow Mountains and the boundless oceans outside still held infinite possibilities.

Thinking about this, Lin Xiao became even more clear-headed. Since he didn't really need to sleep, he decided to go out and stroll through the night market of Dayue City.

It should be known that in Dagan, there were not many places that did not impose a curfew, but because of the local customs in Baiyue, the night markets had been lively since ancient times.

Lin Xiao had also heard from Gu Zhiyao that because this place was close to the Southern Border, there were also Ghost Markets.

In the Ghost Market, there were all sorts of strange and bizarre items. Not only did martial artists like to go there, but some young masters from wealthy families also loved to join the fun.

This place was far from the Northern Territory, so Lin Xiao wasn't worried about being recognized and walked straight onto the main street.

After looking around at the food and entertainment, Lin Xiao, still holding a "learning" mentality, took a look at the brothel street.

However, having seen many peerless beauties, he had seen it all, and he really couldn't get excited about these mediocre women.

After some inquiries, Lin Xiao arrived at the entrance of an alley in the west of the city. At the entrance, a sign was clearly hanging: Ghost Market.

A skinny, bony old woman was holding a rusty iron bowl, collecting entrance fees at the door.

Beside it were two lines of a couplet: "The underworld mixes with the human world, chaos reigns; idlers beware, for trouble abounds."
