Huh? Isn't this an adventure kingdom building game?!

Chapter 1183 - 926: Lantian Domain Ruins · Hundred Ghosts Cave

From a distance, I could see a "giant stone" floating on the horizon.

Calculating with the Immortal Shuttle’s full-speed travel, a three-minute journey is not short, and the destination of those coordinates loomed larger and more menacing in sight.

"I’ve never seen such a massive world fragment, it feels like..." Yun Shu looked up and gestured, whispering softly, "One-third the size of the Wilderness World!"

Tang Qin shook her head and laughed, "It just feels big because we’re close. Actually, if it’s a tenth of a complete world, that would be impressive."

She tilted her head and observed seriously for a moment before adding, "It doesn’t look like a world fragment, more like the remnants of some huge thing."

It was indeed debris.

As they approached the ruins of the Lantian Domain again, a concise prompt popped into Jiang Yuan’s view—[Ruins of the Lantian Domain: War Remnants, the Place Where the Heaven-Swallowing Divine Dog Fell]

He remembered the war remnants merged into the branch replica of the World Tree, suppressed by the Golden Chicken Immortal using a cave residence, which made him somewhat apprehensive.

But then he thought, when the mission was released, his skill levels weren’t very high; plus, at that time, Ling Di was merely a beast at the Mahayana Peak realm. With the system’s usual approach, it wouldn’t release an unmanageably difficult task without a word of caution, so this war remnant shouldn’t be too dangerous.

He clicked to summon his contracted pet, and Ling Di suddenly appeared at his feet.

"Master, I’ve now become quite adept at using the Great Wilderness Heart Method..." Once landing, it wagged its head and tail to report, then immediately saw the gigantic, dark, pockmarked war remnant, widened its eyes in doggy astonishment, and said, "This place looks a bit scary for a dog."

Still resembling a little pup, it tilted its head with a mixture of fear and cuteness, appearing even more endearing and inviting a petting.

Recalling the scene where its master fought against the subordinates of the Outer Heaven Demon, Ling Di suddenly realized that in order to follow its master, it would likely have to often deal with such things in the future and at least needed the ability to protect itself!

As early as autumn had arrived, Bai Yunqi had completed teaching the Great Wilderness Heart Method, but it hadn’t really focused on cultivation.

Linking these thoughts back to how the master always fought those peculiar things alone or summoned Qing Niao for help, it seized the priority—diligently practicing the Purification Technique could prove extremely useful in the future, becoming an indispensable right-hand aid to the master.

Better to have a skill and not need it than need it and not have it!

With this in mind, Old Dog immediately acted spoiled and adorable toward Jiang Yuan, requesting access to an easiest small instance specifically for heart method practice.

After seven or eight days of hard work, bolstered by its Tribulation Crossing Realm great demon beast strength, it had now achieved some progress in cultivation.

"Miss Tang, the upcoming destination is one of the significant targets of this Void journey." Jiang Yuan gently stroked the smooth dog fur, explaining patiently: "Once the Immortal Shuttle stops, you take control and wait here with Yun Shu.

Remember, no matter what happens, do not leave the Immortal Shuttle. If you sense danger, return immediately; don’t worry about the two of us."

Tang Qin was taken aback, "How can that be?! In this boundless void, if I leave you behind, how could we return? Instead, if we actually encounter danger, I’ll take control of the Immortal Shuttle, fly away, and then send a message to you.

We’ll not go far. As long as we shake off the danger, we’ll pause and stay nearby. After you finish your business, we can come over and pick you up."

Yun Shu also worriedly said, "Sir, take me along. Recently, I’ve been acting as a Guiding Envoy for you, and I’m more familiar with the state of drifting fragments in the Void.

Moreover, if we really encounter danger, although I am not high in realm or strength, I can cover the retreat and fend off some hazards for you. Even if damaged, it’s no big deal; you can collect me anytime and have Daoist Leng and Sister Yun Ying repair me back home."

There was another thought she didn’t voice, thinking to herself that even if she could only hold off for a few seconds, it would be enough for sir and Ling Di to escape smoothly; as a puppet, she could at least do these trivial things.

"If a shield is needed, I have my means, no need for you to risk yourself as a meat shield," Jiang Yuan chuckled, "You should stay and keep Miss Tang company. The dangers in the void are more bizarre and terrifying. I would feel more at ease with you two here together."

Ling Di jumped up with a bark, "Sisters, don’t worry. With me by master’s side, everything will be smooth sailing!"

While they spoke, the Immortal Shuttle stopped beside the ruins of the Lantian Domain.

After a few more reminders, Jiang Yuan led Old Dog off the Immortal Shuttle, stepping onto the dark, uneven ground filled with pits.

[Side Quest: Heaven-Swallowing Divine Dog]

[Task 3: Follow instructions and head to the Hundred Ghost Cavern within the ruins of the Lantian Domain. Reward: Cave Key +1]

As a new task appeared in view, a distinctive game navigation marker—a pale blue arrow—emerged again, flickering and pointing toward the distance.

"Strange, this doesn’t seem to be stone or soil. It looks like most of the world fragment is made of this material.

There are holes of various sizes everywhere, as if eroded by something, but the ground is quite smooth." Ling Di stomped, sniffing as it lowered its head, and muttered quietly while observing carefully.
