It was indeed very strange that the Life Jade was broken but not broken. Therefore, Lin Yun did not refuse after hearing Xiao Chen's words. Knowing that Xiao Chen was worried about Xuanyuan Ling and Long Qing, Lin Yun simply said, "Then let Li Tian go with you."
She knew that Xiao Chen would definitely go in person. Even if she tried to persuade him, it would be useless. Therefore, she might as well fulfill his wish.
Moreover, Xiao Chen was also in the Progenitor Realm. The Great Sage of the Ancients was also in the Progenitor Realm when he was alive. With Xiao Chen's strength, there should be no problem in entering the ruins left by an Progenitor Realm powerhouse.
Hearing Lin Yun's words, Xiao Chen naturally would not refuse. Moreover, with Li Tian going with him, it would obviously save a lot of trouble. After all, he had seen Li Tian's ability before.
After the matter was settled, Xiao Chen first returned to his residence and informed Qin Shuirou and the other girls. Originally, the girls wanted to go with him, but they were rejected by Xiao Chen. Now that the situation was unclear, Xiao Chen naturally could not let the girls be in danger with him.
After speaking to the girls, Xiao Chen and Li Tian immediately rushed to the Ancient Barrens continent without delay.
Many forces had already discovered that something was wrong. At the same time, in the ruins of the Great Sage of the Ancients, many warriors who entered the ruins at this time did indeed encounter extremely troublesome matters.
This relic was not as complicated as they had imagined, and there was no such thing as a test. After entering the relic, everyone arrived at a barren plain.
The plain was not large, and in the sky, there was an ancient palace suspended in the sky. However, at this time, there were warriors hanging around the palace.
They were shrouded in an inexplicable liquid like a liquid cocoon, trapping everyone. At this time, these people had their eyes closed, and it was impossible to tell if they were dead or alive.
This was probably the reason why the Life Jade was broken in the outside world. These warriors who were shrouded in an inexplicable liquid seemed to have lost their vital signs, but they were not truly dead.
It was a very strange relic. Other than those who were already trapped, there were still a few people who were bitterly holding on, including Xuanyuan Ling and Long Qing.
As soon as everyone entered the ruins, a rain of sand began to fall from the sky. That's right, it was a rain of sand. Once this rain of sand fell on a person's body, it would quickly liquefy. This was also the reason why so many people were controlled by this unknown liquid.
At first, everyone was caught off guard. However, they soon realized that something was wrong and began to use their own spiritual power to resist. However, for those martial artists with lower cultivation, even if they used their spiritual power, it was basically useless. They were quickly corroded.
Only a small number of Emperor Realm cultivators like Xuanyuan Ling and Long Qing were able to resist and hold on until now.
They kept moving away from the ancient palace in the sky. At that moment, Xuanyuan Ling and his group had come to a valley to hide temporarily.
There were about a dozen people, including Dao Jue and Xiao Xiao. As for Li Chun and the others, they had unfortunately been controlled by the sand rain. Other than the four of them, there were also some cultivators from the Great World. At this moment, everyone gathered together with a dignified look on their faces.
"This ruin is a bit strange. There is neither an assessment nor any reward. Moreover, this sand rain is extremely dangerous." One of the cultivators from the Great World who had gathered together said.
Everyone present was able to cultivate to the Emperor Realm. Naturally, they had gone through a lot of experiences. They had also entered many ruins like this, but they had never encountered such a situation.
As this person's voice fell, Xiao Xiao, who had been silent all this time, spoke up slowly, "I always feel that this ruin is like a trap. Someone deliberately set it up."
"A trap?" Hearing Xiao Xiao's words, everyone present was stunned. They then murmured suspiciously.
If this ruin was a trap, then who set it up? What was their purpose?
Facing everyone's doubts, Xiao Xiao straightforwardly spoke out the conjecture in her heart.
According to Xiao Xiao's guess, there were no treasures in this ruin at all, let alone inheritances. The opening of this ruin must have been deliberately done by someone to achieve some purpose.
As for what this purpose was, it was probably related to everyone. Perhaps that person wanted to lure everyone into this place, then control them through the sand rain and seize their flesh and souls.
"I have carefully sensed that although those who were controlled by the sand rain did not die directly, their souls and flesh were constantly disappearing. There must be someone behind this."
Hearing Xiao Xiao's words, everyone present was stunned. If this was the case, then weren't they all turtles in a jar now?
It was difficult for them to accept this fact for a while, but judging from the current situation, Xiao Xiao's guess was probably correct. After all, this ruin in front of them was not normal at all.
"We can't just sit here and wait for death. We must find a way to leave. At the very least, we must spread the news to the outside world." As soon as Xiao Xiao's voice fell, a cultivator from the Great World spoke up.
Staying here, they could hide for a while, but could they hide forever? Therefore, they had to find a way to leave. At the very least, they had to find a way to spread the news.
But how could they leave? It was not that everyone had not tried before, but the surrounding space was simply abnormally solid, as if it was protected by some kind of power. With their cultivation and strength, there was no way to tear it apart.
There was no way to tear the space, nor could they find any exit. As for the entrance that everyone had entered before, it had long disappeared or been directly closed. Anyway, it was impossible.
Just as everyone was thinking of a way to escape, in the ancient palace in the sky, blood was constantly flowing into a dried corpse.
The dried corpse's skin was extremely dry and there was almost no flesh and blood left. Only some skin and bones were left. It looked extremely terrifying.
However, with the continuous flow of blood from all around, it was obvious that the dried corpse began to slowly recover its vitality. The originally shriveled body began to slowly expand like a balloon.
Moreover, in addition to the blood Qi, there was also an inexplicable power that was constantly flowing into the dried corpse. This power was very similar to the power of the soul. It was probably the power of the soul.
As time passed, the fingers of the dried corpse in the palace moved slightly. A corpse that should have been dead for many years seemed to have come back to life at this time. If someone was here, they would probably recognize at a glance that the dried corpse in front of them was the owner of this ruin, the Great Sage of the Ancients.
