CHAPTER 611: CHAPTER 610 THE WISH OF THREE SMILES

```

Divine Technique, the great Dao, the allure they hold for Cultivators is of course boundless.

The person before me now, Sunset Three Laughs, in his pursuit of the Divine Technique and the great Dao, I’m afraid has reached a level of madness.

Lin Hao was, to say the least, dumbstruck.

"Actually, I only know a little about Qimen Dunjia, if I had the complete Qimen Dunjia, entering a sandstorm wouldn’t be very difficult. It’s just..."

Lin Hao didn’t finish his sentence, falling into contemplation.

Qimen Dunjia is a classic passed down from the Ancient Era of Huaxia, containing insights into the mysteries of the universe and the origins of all Dao.

However, it has long been lost, leaving behind only the barest scraps.

Even in the Eternal Life Realm, there are only incomplete copies, and none are whole.

For the current Lin Hao, it’s also difficult to comprehend its profound mysteries.

"Qimen Dunjia?" Sunset Three Laughs was puzzled, he did not know what this was. But Lin Hao’s words gave him hope.

"It doesn’t matter, I can help you look for it. As long as I can enter the Bitter Realm sandstorm, I am willing to do anything!" Sunset Three Laughs was thrilled to the extreme.

"But... but I am not entirely sure that I can enter the sandstorm safely, even if death is avoided, one might still become lost within. To come out, apart from luck, would require an endless amount of time. And time is what I am most short of," Lin Hao still shook his head.

He couldn’t just casually agree to such a request. A promise made, after all, is a debt unpaid.

Considering the current situation of Earth’s people, Lin Hao couldn’t afford to disappear for so long, let alone take such risks.

Sunset Three Laughs clearly understood Lin Hao’s position.

Without much thought, he resolutely said, "That’s alright. I can wait! I’ve waited for hundreds of years already, I am not afraid to wait another few hundred! At least now, I have hope!"

Hope, the moment Sunset Three Laughs spoke these two words, an unusual glimmer flashed in his eyes.

"Before this, Sunset Three Laughs is willing to follow Your Excellency and serve the people of Earth!" Sunset Three Laughs made it clear he wanted to stick with Lin Hao just because Lin Hao could traverse fifty steps within the sandstorm!

Lin Hao sighed inwardly, but this was tantamount to gaining an unexpected assistant, wasn’t it?

Who would complain about having more masters? With the addition of Sunset Three Laughs, the strength of Earth’s people would surely surge immensely. At least, this was the first powerful ally that Lin Hao had secured since arriving at the Upper Realm Plane!

A single Sunset Three Laughs could match more than a dozen from the Elf Clan!

"Alright! In that case, I will agree to your request. However, I will only enter the Bitter Realm sandstorm once the Earth’s people have stabilized their footing on the Plane and face no major calamities. Otherwise, I cannot leave." Lin Hao looked at Sunset Three Laughs, preparing to set his conditions.

Yet Sunset Three Laughs agreed immediately.

"Come, let’s drink!"

Having settled the agreement, Sunset Three Laughs was overjoyed, picked up his drink, and gulped down a glass.

Who knew that this promise, which was almost as good as a blank check, could make someone like Sunset Three Laughs so happy.

Lin Hao sighed inwardly and also raised his glass.

The Bitter Realm Yellow Sand storm raged for five days and nights.

On the sixth day, the sand ceased, and the wind stopped.

At last, a ray of sunlight shone through.

"The wind has ceased, and the sand is still. Are you setting out?"

Sunset Three Laughs and Lin Hao had been drinking in the inn’s lobby for five days and nights.

The two of them didn’t discuss many matters, Lin Hao merely recounted Earth’s events once over, as well as the current situation of Earth’s people.

Unexpectedly, after hearing this, Sunset Three Laughs held great admiration for Earth’s people.

Those novel technologies sounded very fascinating, and the powerful weapons that made the Seven Countries tremble in fear, all the more astonished Sunset Three Laughs.

After listening to Lin Hao’s words, Sunset Three Laughs became even more excited.

He truly was a genius, merely from a bit of imagery in the yellow sand, he had gleaned enlightenment of the profound Cultivation Techniques from the philosophies of Confucianism, Buddhism, and Taoism.

```

After hearing about the high-tech from Earth that Lin Hao described, he had an epiphany and mentioned that next time they enter the Bitter Realm Yellow Sand storm, they could operate an armored fighting vehicle specifically designed for it!

Incredible, to put knowledge to practical use, even more so than Lin Hao had thought of.

It’s just a pity that all the real high-tech talents are on Earth.

These people, engrossed in science and not much focused on cultivation, would unlikely leave the Earth Plane to come to the Upper Realm Plane.

"Then let’s return to Earth!"

Sunset Three Laughs was truly obsessed with the Bitter Realm Yellow Sand, willing to go to crazy lengths to achieve his goal.

However, he genuinely admired the technology of the Earthlings from the bottom of his heart and had immense admiration for Lin Hao over the course of five days and nights.

At this moment, the hall was incredibly silent.

The passersby hiding in the basement didn’t dare to come up after learning that everyone in the hall had been killed.

Wu Hua withdrew the tavern’s protective array and opened the front door.

Sunlight streamed in from outside, and the air in the entire hall became fresh.

The innkeeper, who had been out of sight, came up with a few helpers to carry out the bodies from inside the hall.

Lin Hao and Sunset Three Laughs stepped out of the tavern, and everything in front of their eyes seemed to have changed entirely.

The landscape had transformed.

Although it was still a desert and Gobi, it was completely different from six days ago.

"The next Bitter Realm sandstorm will come in one year’s time," Sunset Three Laughs said somewhat reflectively, "Lin, where do you plan to go next?"

"Me?" Lin Hao’s mouth curled up slightly: "I heard that the Divine World has sent down a Divine Artifact, and it’s mobilizing all the clans of the Upper Realm Plane to use it against the Earthlings. I’m going to check it out."

"Indeed, a Divine Artifact has appeared in the Thousand Needle Stone Forest. Even the lord of the Bitter Realm has rushed over. I bet many masters have gathered there by now." Sunset Three Laughs was, of course, aware of this.

He thought for a moment, then looked at Lin Hao: "But still, Heavenly Descending Divine Artifacts could appear anywhere throughout the Upper Realm Plane. Can you really stop them?"

"Who said I was going to stop it?" Lin Hao laughed heartily: "My reasons for coming out are one, to see what a Divine Artifact looks like, and two, to find companions. Surely, we Earthlings can’t truly become public enemies of the entire Upper Realm Plane?"

Lin Hao laughed boldly, and Sunset Three Laughs responded with rising spirits, "Where you go, I will follow. Please!"

Lin Hao and Sunset Three Laughs, like old friends of many years, headed towards the desert.

"You... you’re leaving?"

From behind, Wu Hua’s reluctant voice carried over: "Will you return?"

"I will."

Sunset Three Laughs did not turn back, but Lin Hao did, looking at Wu Hua; he could tell that Wu Hua was fond of Sunset Three Laughs.

"When will that be?"

"I don’t know."

Silence.

Wu Hua stopped in her tracks, her injured hand still wrapped in gauze, her eyes brimming with tears as she looked at Sunset Three Laughs: "Can’t you just not go?"

Another moment of silence.

Lin Hao noticed a flicker of emotion on Sunset Three Laughs’ face, a hint of sadness.

"Forget about me."

"I can’t forget! I’ve tried!" Wu Hua yelled.

"But my heart belongs elsewhere."

Sunset Three Laughs took strides forward, walking ahead without looking back.

"But she’s been lost in the Bitter Realm Yellow Sand for three hundred years!" Wu Hua had held back for a long time, but finally, tears rolled down her cheeks like rain, and she shouted out loud.

This time, Sunset Three Laughs visibly paused, then continued forward with even faster, more resolute steps: "I must find her and bring her back... even if it’s just bones!"
