first adventure .

So several days passed quickly.

Every night, Qing Han took a strengthening pill to keep his base steady. Then soak in the Medicinal liquid for three hours. This allowed both his soul force and his body to receive maximum nourishment. 

In little more than a week he had already reached the Four Star Bronze with the help of these medicines. He also helped Ling Feng in his training and taught him some martial techniques from his past life. However, he noticed that Ling Feng seemed to be acting a bit strange lately, but he didn't pay much attention to it.

Each should follow a path that suited them best, so Qing Han didn't pay much attention to what Ling Feng was doing. Of course, he still taught him normally, and he also passed on some more comprehensive knowledge that wasn't available in Glory City.

Even knowing his 'special secret' he was still waiting for the day when Ling Feng would summon up the courage to speak up of his own accord. Until then, Ling Feng would remain his only brother and friend.

Today, Qing Han was going to go on a little adventure outside the city of glory! There was a place he couldn't visit in his past life as he was too weak to enter, but now it might be possible with his current strength. The site was to the west of the city of glory in a set of high and thick mountains where it looked like a huge mountain hid an entire secret kingdom.

In his past life, he found a piece of rock over 10 meters high inside a forest far away from the city of glory. On the rock, the four words "Lightning Emperor's Rest Area" were written in large words that were dazzling in golden light. The rock appeared to be the entrance into the huge mountain with its height and weight. After that, he tried to forcefully enter, but the aura of the lightning in that place became so strong, that an arm-thick purple lightning bolt fell 10 meters away from where he was.

After that he left that place in fear and never returned there. Over time, even with his strength increasing very quickly, he had already forgotten about that location. However, now it looks like this could be a good adventure for him.

However, Qing Han knew that a journey alone would be very boring and dull. So he first had already posted and anonymously circulated a letter with the correct location of the lightning emperor's resting place. Many people were already making their way to test the waters first, while others were forming their own groups to venture out.

Approximately more than ten groups have already started from the city of glory. All were at least three-star silver rank, some had even broken into five-star Silver rank almost reaching Gold rank. The aristocratic families also entered into an agreement that no one above the Gold Rank was allowed to go on this same adventure.

It should be known that people with this level of cultivation were much stronger than the Silver Ranks, so this was both so as not to show their true strengths, and so as not to have as much danger to their future descendants.

Qing Han invited Ling Feng to go out together, but he declined saying that he was at a critical juncture to reach Silver Rank. Of course, Qing Han was a little disappointed by this, but he still understood. After all, they can't always be together.

....

In the early morning, the air of the wild woods was very pure and fresh. The leaves and flowers were filled with the pure morning dew that fell as the cool morning breeze blew against them.

At the entrance of the city of glory, several people were already standing fully armed with armor, swords and bows ready to leave. Two teams from the alchemists' hall were also among these people, and among them, a handsome young man was standing in the center looking around with a smile on his lips.

Even though many people had died since this news was spread, there was still a steady stream of Spiritualists and fighters wanting to try their luck. The temptation of a ruin unexplored by them was really something that clouded the hearts of many people.

The leader of the alchemist hall suddenly stood up exuding an oppressive and savage aura to everyone around him.

"Well, if everyone is ready, then let's go! But always watch out for some other danger along the way. The place where we're going has already been explored by some people, but many died before we even got there, so we should have a lot be careful along the way." Duan Hong then waved his hands and the two teams started running towards the west of Glory City.

At this time, basically, all the other teams of Spiritualists also stood up. All those who were preparing or waiting for the opportune moment, seeing the alchemist teams leaving first, were surprised for a few seconds before following them.

The people of the alchemists' hall was led by a two person. Duan Hong, a 43-year-old man with a short beard and gray hair, a five-star Silver Rank. And a young girl also ranked 5-star silver, named Shi Qinghuang. The young woman was pretty with small brown eyes and pink lips. Many of the men on the team had their eyes glistening with lust as they looked at her from time to time.

Qing Han however, was just someone who was added to the team with the help of Yang Xin and Gu Yan's words. In the team, even a little suspicious as to why this happened, no one paid much attention to him as his cultivation was possibly the smallest of all the teams.

......

Three hours later, a gorge came into view.

On the map received by their leaders, there were a few groups of beasts around here, even though most of them didn't go above Bronze Rank, it would still be a problem to deal with a group of them.

This canyon looked very strange, from the air around it, to the beasts that didn't seem to want to leave here even though the world was ending, which means there must be something wrong here.

In terms of size, this place was as big as a whole third of Glory City, but it was in a partially open place. Unlike the city of glory which was hidden by a high mountain range.

"Finally I'm here again, it brings back some memories."

Qing Han flew on top of a big rock and looked down the big gorge.
