Gu Li paused for a moment, looking a little hesitant, but finally replied softly, "I guess so!"

She looked around, her eyes full of bewilderment and confusion about this strange continent. It would not be an exaggeration to say that she was completely lost.

Seeing this, the old man sighed helplessly and said, "Well, you can stay in our village today and leave quickly tomorrow."

"Thank you, senior." Gu Li was eager to find out where he was, so he agreed to the old man's suggestion without hesitation.

But deep down she always remained highly alert, like a cheetah ready to deal with danger at any time.

"Come with me." After the old man said this, he slowly walked into the village.

Under the curious and scrutinizing gazes of many villagers, Gu Li followed the old man's footsteps closely.

At the same time, she quietly exerted her mental power, spreading it around like a fine spider silk, carefully exploring whether there was any unusual movement around her.

The old man brought her to a stone house, where there was a small courtyard. Although it was not big, it was very tidy.

The old man raised his hand and pointed to a room, saying, "You can stay there. You will leave early tomorrow morning."

"Thank you, Senior." Gu Li thanked him politely, and then he couldn't help but ask out of curiosity, "Senior, I want to ask what this continent is called?"

The old man was slightly startled, with a hint of surprise in his eyes, and asked back: "Are you from another continent?"

Gu Li nodded gently and answered calmly: "Yes, I came from the lower world."

The old man looked her up and down, with a glimmer of approval in his eyes: "It's not bad that you can ascend to heaven at such a young age. You can just call me Old Yun. This is the Ridiculous Desert in the southernmost part of Lingxi Continent."

Gu Li's eyes lit up, and he quickly asked, "Can you tell me about the situation in Lingxi Continent?"

Elder Yun nodded slightly and said, "Okay."

As Master Yun told his story, Gu Li gradually gained a general understanding of Lingxi Continent.

Like the Lanfeng Continent, the Lingxi Continent is also divided into two parts. She is currently in the Southern Continent, which is composed of six major forces and countless small forces.

The six major forces are: Star Palace, Fengyun Manor, Mingyue Tower, Iron Blood Alliance, Xianling Island, and Wushuang City.

Gu Li pondered in his heart, according to what his master said before, the Divine Spirit Sect is very famous and belongs to a big force. Based on this inference, it must be located in the northern continent.

Not everyone here is at the Venerable level, but the spiritual energy here is richer than other places, so the average person's cultivation speed is also faster.

Except for children, most of the lower-class people have reached the peak of the honorable level.

The Venerable Rank is the lowest level realm in Lingxi Continent. Above the Venerable Rank are the Initial Spirit Realm, Condensation Origin Realm, Poxu Realm, Mahayana Realm, and Super Spiritual Realm. Each realm is divided into four stages, namely the early, middle, late, and peak stages.

Most of the villagers she saw outside just now were at the peak of the Venerable Level, and even the Elder Yun in front of her had reached the peak of the Venerable Level.

However, her current cultivation level is only at the initial stage of the Spiritual Realm. In the Lingxi Continent, her strength is among the lowest.

Gu Li's doubts grew stronger, and he couldn't help but ask, "Master Yun, why do you emphasize so much that I leave quickly?"

Elder Yun sighed deeply, his face full of helplessness and worry: "We are invaded by monsters every month. It will be extremely dangerous for you to stay here."

Gu Li was startled and asked, "Monster? What kind of monster is there in the desert?"

There was a hint of fear in Elder Yun's eyes: "The Yunyuan Lizard King is a semi-divine beast. He comes to our place every month to capture a few people and bring them back."

Gu Li was even more puzzled: "Then why don't you leave?"

Elder Yun smiled bitterly and shook his head: "We can't leave. The people in our village have been breathing in their poisonous gas since birth. Once we leave this desert, we won't survive for more than three days. You are different. You have just been here for a short time, so you won't breathe in too much toxins."

Gu Li frowned and asked, "Is the demigod beast very strong?"

Elder Yun's expression became more serious. "There are more than one, five in total. We have fought hard before, but the results were not satisfactory every time."

Gu Li's heart sank, and he said slowly, "So your village is kept in captivity by them?"

Elder Yun nodded helplessly: "You can say that."

Gu Li's heart moved, and he asked softly, "Can I take your pulse?"

Elder Yun waved his hand and refused, “No need. Without a Saint-level alchemist, there is no way to cure this poison.”

The alchemists in the village have tried countless times, but all ended in failure.

Gu Li raised the corners of his mouth slightly, revealing a confident smile: "I am a semi-god-level alchemist."

Elder Yun's face was filled with panic and anticipation, and he said with a trembling voice, "You...are you telling the truth?"

There was doubt in his eyes, yet there was a hint of desire.

Gu Li looked calm and said indifferently, "Of course, there's no benefit in lying to you, right?"

She looked into Mr. Yun's eyes calmly, without any intention of dodging.

When Elder Yun heard this, his hands trembled with excitement. He stretched out his hand hastily and said anxiously, "Then quickly...quickly take my pulse."

At the same time, he stared straight at Gu Li, his eyes seemed to penetrate her soul and find out the truth behind her words.

Gu Li gently placed his hand on Yun Lao's hand, closed his eyes slightly, and mobilized a trace of spiritual power to slowly send it into his body.

The spiritual power was like a flexible silk thread, silently flowing through Elder Yun's meridians, carefully exploring every subtle change.

After a moment, Gu Li let go of his hand, a look of relief appeared on his face, and he said, "This poison is very simple."

When Elder Yun heard this, he was so excited that he couldn't even speak clearly: "You...you can solve it?"

He felt mixed emotions. The village had been suffering from this drug problem for a long time, and pain and despair were always there.

Countless times they have longed to escape this misfortune, to flee from this place where death could come at any time, and to pursue a new life.

Now, with the dawn of hope appearing, how could he not be overwhelmed with emotion and speak incoherently.

Gu Li calmly took out a bottle of medicine powder and handed it to Elder Yun: "Just add water and take it."

In her opinion, this was just a poison from a monster. It didn't even need to be used to make pills. It was really insignificant.

But she was also a little confused. Why did they have been troubled by such a common poison for so long and could not get rid of it?

Old Yun took the medicine powder carefully, his hands still shaking slightly unconsciously.
