News of the 10,000 Year Vermilion Fruit spread and attracted countless gazes.
Along with it, there were many other rumors that were both true and false.
There was an underground palace buried in the Great Qian Ruins.
There were spirit farms and countless treasures in the underground palace.
There was a cultivator who obtained an extremely powerful connate spirit weapon in the ruins …
The entire North Region was shocked!
For the past 10,000 years, the interest of the cultivators of the North Region towards the Great Qian Ruins had gradually faded.
Now that this piece of news was spread, it instantly caused a huge uproar. This proved that there might be some undiscovered secrets in the Great Qian Ruins!
Furthermore, the attraction of the 10,000 Year Vermilion Fruit was way too great for Perfected Jin Dan.
Nobody could resist that temptation.
Cultivators from the four dynasties of the North Region made a move.
The successors of many major sects and factions came out of seclusion one after another and declared that they wanted to fight for the Vermilion Fruit.
Even some of the reclusive cultivation gentry clans announced that they would send out their Jin Dan paragons to the Great Qian Ruins.
Instantly, everyone was stirred.
In less than half a month, the vicinity of the Great Qian Ruins was already filled with a gathering of heroes. Suddenly, the atmosphere was tense and filled with a murderous aura!
There was only a single Vermilion Fruit.
Who in the North Region could obtain it?
15 days later.
Two cultivators arrived together near the Great Qian Ruins. It was a man and a woman.
The man had a thick beard and a rough appearance. Clad in heavy armor, he walked with a majestic gait.
The woman had extraordinary looks and a long sword hung by her waist. Her black hair flowed like a waterfall and her white robes fluttered like snow.
The man and woman were Mu Dongqing and Bai Yuhan, commanders of the Azure Falcon guards of the capital of Great Zhou and Bai Yuhan of the White Hawk guards.
Both of them had already cultivated to the perfected Jin Dan realm and were here on the orders of the emperor.
The emperor had a clear understanding of the situation. A month later, paragons would gather at the Great Qian Ruins and the Great Zhou Dynasty would not be able to compete at all.
Therefore, the Great Zhou Dynasty did not send an army of cultivators this time round. Instead, they sent Mu Dongqing and Bai Yuhan to explore the secrets of the Great Qian Ruins and see if they could encounter any opportunities.
There were many sects and factions that harbored such thoughts.
Many rogue cultivators had also made their way there, hoping to take advantage of the chaos.
Those itinerant cultivators were not strong and would not dare to barge into the Great Qian Ruins alone. Now that the paragons of the various major sects and clans were paving the way, the malevolent ghosts and otherworldly soldiers were nothing to fear!
These itinerant cultivators could also take the opportunity to explore the Great Qian Ruins.
Mu Dongqing and Bai Yuhan looked at the desolate and mysterious ruins in front of them with hesitation.
Under normal circumstances, the two of them should enter and explore first.
However, the situation in the Great Qian Ruins was way too chaotic right now and the two of them had already witnessed many fights along the way.
The closer they got to the Great Qian Ruins, the more tense the atmosphere became!
Suddenly!
Mu Dongqing's expression changed. He pressed down on Bai Yuhan's body and squatted down, hiding his body in the surrounding weeds that were taller than a person.
"Someone's coming!" Mu Dongqing whispered.
Not long after he finished speaking, figures appeared in the distant horizon. Looking over, there were about a thousand of them. They were all Perfected Jin Dan!
Every single Perfected Jin Dan wore armor and had cold expressions.
The formation of the Perfected Jin Dan Perfected Jin Dan was orderly and disciplined.
Bai Yuhan frowned slightly and whispered, "They seem to be the troops of the Great You Dynasty."
"Yes,"
Mu Dongqing nodded. "A spy reported long ago that the other three dynasties have already made their move. To think that the Great You Dynasty would send so many people."
"Their leader seems to be a Jin Dan genius of the Great You Dynasty, Gu Luonan."
"So, it's him!"
Mu Dongqing said with a grim expression, "By the looks of it, the Great You Dynasty seems to be interested in the Vermilion Fruit as well."
Arriving before the Great Qian Ruins, Gu Luonan paused for a moment before waving his arm and leading the thousand odd Perfected Jin Dan Perfected Jin Dan behind him into the ruins.
Boom! Boom!
All of a sudden.
In the distant horizon, there was a shocking sound that sounded like rolling thunder. It was as if a magnificent army was galloping over.
Before long, dozens of ancient war chariots appeared with divine steeds pulling the reins and galloping through the air. The war chariots rumbled and crushed over with endless killing intent!
The banners fluttered loudly in the wind.
Most of the war chariots had two or three people standing on them. Wearing battle armor, they exuded an iron-blooded aura and had sharp gazes.
The appearance of the dozens of ancient war chariots was frightening and attracted countless gazes. The cultivators near the ruins were shocked.
On the fluttering banner, there were two words written on it — Tuoba!
"It's the Tuoba clan!"
Mu Dongqing's heart skipped a beat.
Apart from the four dynasties, there were four other gentry clans in the North Region. They were the Murong, Yuwen, Dugu and Tuoba clans.
The four gentry clans had existed since the establishment of the Great Qian Empire and had a long history.
10,000 years ago, the capital was destroyed overnight and the Great Qian Empire fell apart. The four gentry clans broke free from the control of the Great Qian Empire as well.
The four gentry clans were major cultivation clans with great strength and deep foundations that were even above the Great Zhou and the other three dynasties!
"To think that Perfected Being Jin Dan of the Tuoba clan would be here as well!"
"I heard that paragons from the four gentry clans are here to fight for the Vermilion Fruit and proclaim themselves as kings of the North Region!"
"The person in the lead seems to be the peerless genius of the Tuoba clan, Tuoba Feng. He has a fiery temper and is extremely aggressive!"
There were other cultivators hiding around Mu Dongqing and Dugu Feng as well as discussing in hushed tones.
Among the dozens of war chariots, there was only one in the lead that was pulled by five divine steeds that were more than ten feet long. The horses neighed loudly in a shuddering manner.
There was only a single person on the war chariot. He was burly and stood proudly with a ferocious aura!
When Gu Luonan of the Great You Dynasty caught sight of that person, his expression changed and he took a deep breath before revealing a smile. Cupping his fists, he said, "So, it's Brother Tuoba. I've heard a lot about you."
That was a common greeting between cultivators. Unexpectedly, the Tuoba clansmen burst into laughter.
Tuoba Feng glared and hollered, "Where did this ant come from? How dare you call yourself my brother!"
His words did not leave any face for Gu Luonan at all.
Gu Luonan was also a top-tier expert of the Great You Jin Dan realm and had never suffered such humiliation before. Instantly, his expression darkened.
When he saw that, Tuoba Feng burst into laughter. "Good, good, good! How dare you throw a tantrum at me? Don't leave then! All of you, stay here! "
"Kill!"
Tuoba Feng slapped his storage bag and withdrew an incomparably domineering halberd. Waving his arm, he shook the reins and the war chariot rumbled over!
The Tuoba clansmen behind him obeyed and dozens of war chariots moved at the same time.
The war drums boomed deafeningly.
That aura was way too strong and seemed like it could crush everything!
"Prepare for battle!"
Gu Luonan's expression changed starkly.
How could he have expected that a single sentence from him would lead to a huge battle?!
Boom!
The dozens of war chariots charged into the army of the Great You Dynasty with a murderous aura and slaughtered the thousand strong Jin Dan army into a mess.
With a single collision, almost a hundred Perfected Jin Dan cultivators died and were crushed into meat paste by the war chariots!
The leader, Tuoba Feng, was even more terrifying. Standing at the front of the war chariots, he waved his halberd with shocking strength and none of the Perfected Jin Dan cultivators were a match for him.
Everywhere the war chariots passed, men and horses fell and a path of blood appeared behind them!
One after another, figures fell weakly from midair.
