Chapter 1662

The path through Sichuan is arduous, as difficult as reaching the blue heavens. Chen Xuan was currently standing on a dilapidated stretch of the ancient Sichuan plank road. This path, which cuts across the Qinling Mountains and the Daba Mountains, is characterized by soaring peaks, deep valleys, and rugged, treacherous terrain. While most of the Sichuan road has since been designated as a cultural heritage site by the authorities, a few remote sections remain in their most pristine, natural state. It was only by venturing deep into the mountains of western Sichuan that Chen Xuan had discovered this secluded route. All around Chen Xuan, majestic, boundless mountains stretched as far as the eye could see—a testament to the vastness and richness of the Divine Land. Yet, such was the difficulty of the path that even Chen Xuan, whose physical prowess far exceeded that of an ordinary man, had to tread with extreme caution, lest a single misstep send him plunging into the valley below to be smashed to pieces.
