Pffft—

Since mastering the whole of Bogda Peak, the White-haired Fierce Ghost never imagined that this perpetually snow-covered and seemingly eternal mountain would face such a situation.

Large expanses of ice and snow began to shatter, transforming into mist and dissipating into the air at a speed akin to a whirlwind sweeping through.

In an instant, the peak of the mountain was completely devoid of white ice and snow, revealing for the first time the barren black-brown earth dotted with scattered stones beneath the snow.

Their color was so glaring in the eyes of the White-haired Fierce Ghost because it told an incredibly terrifying fact — Bogda Peak was without snow!

"Man, it wasn't in vain that we toiled for two whole days and nights, huh! You can say you died a worthy death; even saving Chengyang City wasn't this exhausting."

Wu Liang descended from mid-air, twisted his neck with a cracking sound, and teased the White-haired Fierce Ghost in front of him.

But what he said was true.

From the first day he discovered that the White-haired Fierce Ghost could escape indefinitely using ice and snow, he had been suspicious of this matter.

Could the other party heal its injuries in such a short time also because of the ice and snow?

Only with this method did Wu Liang think it understandable that this guy needed to return to Bogda Peak after severely injuring the West Queen Mother Statue Ghost.

Otherwise, why wouldn't it just find a place by the Celestial Pool to recover and then take out the West Queen Mother Statue Ghost?

"Let me introduce, Mist, his ability seems to counter you perfectly." Wu Liang pursed his lips.

Since he had the above suspicions.

On the second day, Wu Liang had Mist continuously infiltrate, hiding layers of barely visible mist under the ice and snow during each avalanche caused by the White-haired Fierce Ghost.

Then, using the mist to envelop the ice and snow and carry it away.

Just in case, Wu Liang made Mist Ghost take two whole days and nights to cover every visible area within a hundred-mile radius with a thin layer of mist.

The vast range imposed such a burden on Mist Ghost that its previous ability to fly while sleeping was no longer smooth.

Fortunately, the results did not disappoint him.

Once everything was enveloped, all that was needed was to use the ability of [Heavy Fog] to solidify it all, and upon one more release, the entire Bogda Peak's ice and snow would dissipate along with the mist.

"Perpetual snow? Sorry, Bogda Peak might be without this thing for a long time now."

Having said that, Wu Liang and a group of fierce ghost minions lunged at their prey like vicious wolves baring their fangs.

This time, the White-haired Fierce Ghost could no longer escape to recover from his injuries.

It struggled, it roared, but it was powerless.

Snow was its everything, and also its foundation.

At the moment it was finally exorcised, the White-haired Fierce Ghost suddenly turned and looked towards the summit of Bogda Peak, revealing a relieved expression in that direction.

As if some shackle had vanished from inside it.

Clink—

From its body, which the fierce ghost minions prepared to feast on after exorcism, fell a strange fragment that looked like a stone slab.

This thing landed on the ground making a metallic clanging sound, and Wu Liang picked it up, examined it for a long time without being able to discern what material it was made of.

"Wait a minute, is it this thing that's attracting the [Ghost Compendium]?"

After picking it up, Wu Liang found that the [Ghost Compendium] in his mind was buzzing, with an urge to immediately fuse with it.

But at such a time, Wu Liang didn't dare to rashly take out the [Ghost Compendium] and attach it, in case something went wrong; in this fierce ghost-ridden Tianshan Mountain Range, he wouldn't be able to get out alive.

"Let's study it... Whoa! So hard?"

With a body as strong as his?

Even city-destroying level fierce ghosts would be injured by Wu Liang's [Breaking Blade] against their body, right?

Even the West Queen Mother Statue Ghost wouldn't dare to foolishly take Wu Liang's hand chop head-on and would have to use abilities to block him.

Yet, to Wu Liang's astonishment, when he attempted to chop this strange fragment with a research-oriented mindset, it remained completely undamaged.

Not to mention breaking, not even a speck of debris fell off!

"Hiss... no, this thing just has some sensation of an [Attractive Object], but it doesn't feel like a complete [Attractive Object], the inexplicable attraction on the mountain top still exists."

Wu Liang holding the fragment looked up towards the summit of Bogda Peak, which was also the last place the White-haired Fierce Ghost gazed at before exorcism.

That is where the [Ghost Compendium] truly wants to reach!

This fragment comes from something atop the mountain!

"Could it be the mystery is about to be solved?"

"You guys take your time eating, after absorbing the fierce ghost's body, have a good rest, especially Mist; you probably find it difficult to fly high now. I'll also take a good nap, we'll approach that [Attractive Object] in our peak condition!"

After instructing the fierce ghost minions nearby, Wu Liang took out his sleeping bag again and lay down in it.

He always felt something was off; every time he slept these past few days, he dreamt of a bizarre scene, pitch-black darkness as far as the eye could see.

Only a vague voice urged him in the dark - faster, hurry!

As if something were about to descend, leaving him with little time.

"Ha, what a joke, the second supernatural calamity is two hundred days away, I've just been in the Heavenly Mountain for six days, what's the rush?"

......

Outside the Celestial Pool of Tianshan, within Utopia No. 2 Village.

The high cave almost overlooked the entire village, which was the sacred abode of the Utopia's founder, Saintess Ayimu.

Usually, only the two village-proclaimed warrior guards could stay outside the cave, and only the woman responsible for delivering meals to Ayimu could enter during mealtimes.

But strangely, today, ten minutes had passed and the woman who went in with the meal had yet to come out. Ha Wulei, standing at the entrance, frowned and called somewhat loudly into the cave: "Saintess Ayimu! Does today's food still suit your taste?"

Seemingly catching the subtle undertone of his words, Ayimu's voice echoed from deep within the cave: "Mm, it's very delicious. I was chatting with the sister who brought the meal, got a bit delayed; she'll be out soon."

Saying that, a tall meal delivery woman emerged from the cave and nodded to Ha Wulei and the others outside before descending the mountain.

Seeing everything was fine, Ha Wulei and his companion breathed a sigh of relief and continued to guard the cave outside.

But deep inside the cave, beyond their sight, lay a tall figure on a stone bed, identical in stature to the meal delivery woman who just left.

Obviously, Ayimu was not this tall.

And the meal delivery woman who had left the cave had a long-awaited look of joy in her eyes as she walked towards the edge of the Utopian Village.

Then, she muttered to herself:

"Three months... Finally reaching the sealing place. Great Saintess Yao, please forgive my vile and selfish actions."

"Your child is not a savior to this world, I only sense destructive violence in him, you are the real redeemer."

"I will use his soul and all of myself to give you a chance to reappear."

"My deception of your child is out of necessity, but my faith in you remains unwavering."

"I believe that after a year of slumber, you'll forgive my decisions for the sake of this scarred world upon awakening."

"Bogda Peak no longer has snow, the world's darkness is at its end, soon you shall ascend to divinity bathed in Holy Light…"
