Of the two accompanying array masters, one of them had white hair and a ruddy complexion. He was slightly plump and wore a blue coat. At this moment, his eyes were sparkling as he shouted, "Nine Melodious Dragons. This is the Nine Melodious Dragons of the mountains and rivers!"
Xiao Da stopped and asked, "Mister Lu, what is the Nine Melodious Dragons?"
After Mister Lu's excitement, he was afraid that he could not be sure. He looked at the other array master beside him. That array master also had white hair, but his facial features were deep and his face was bronze. He met Mister Lu's gaze and nodded.
Only then did Mister Lu confirm. He pointed to the desolate land in front of him and drew a line in the air with his finger. He said, "Look at these vegetation. They are scattered, but in fact, they are very orderly. The east side is lush, but the middle is abrupt. And the tail is slender and long. Doesn't it look like a dragon? "
Everyone looked over according to what he said. Indeed, there were traces of a dragon. However, it was too far-fetched, making it hard for them to believe.
The other array master coughed lightly and said solemnly, "This is just the topography that appears on the surface. At the end of the day, it is the water that gathers in this desolate land, forming a dragon vein. If you do not believe …"
He gestured in the air with his hand and pointed in a direction. He said, "You can cut down from here. You will definitely find an ancient river canal."
Everyone looked at each other, unsure if they should believe him.
Xiao Da laughed and said, "There's no need to cut. With Mister Hu Tong and Mister Lu's great abilities, how can they be wrong?"
Hu Tong saw that many people still did not believe him, so he did not explain further. He pointed to a spot in front of him and said, "Since the Nine Melodious Dragons have been set up here, there must have been a tribe living here. And the core of the tribe should be at the Dragon's Eye."
He did a few calculations with his fingers and his eyes flashed. He pointed in front of him and drew a circle. He said, "The place where the water gathers."
Xiao Da opened a disk array in his hand and compared it to the spot Hu Tong pointed at. He exclaimed, "It's really there!"
Zhuge Shi said, "If that's the case, let's go over quickly. I also want to see if there's anything special about the items left behind by the Desolate race. I want to see if I can find any opportunities. "
He licked his lips and was somewhat excited. After all, the Desolate race was one of the eight strongest races in the Middle Ages. If they had really left something behind, they might be able to break through to the Earth realm.
The group of people quickly flew forward and soon arrived in front of a dilapidated building. Most of it had been buried by the desert, and only a few walls could be seen. If one did not look carefully, it would be difficult to see any clues.
However, in the middle of this dilapidated building, there was an altar that looked like a black tower. It was covered in moss.
The altar was only about thirty meters tall and took up an area of three to four acres. It wasn't a grand structure and was shaped like a pyramid. However, the top of the pyramid was flat and there were steps leading to the top on three sides.
Under the cover of the green moss, a large number of magical symbols could be vaguely seen. They were carved on the altar without any concealment. However, the corrosion of time had still destroyed a large number of runes. Many of them could no longer be seen clearly.
Everyone became vigilant because there were many traces of battle around the altar. The ground was full of potholes, and they could even see some corpses. They were the people who had first discovered the ruins.
Yang Qingxuan stared at the traces of the battle and suddenly said, "Strange, such a fierce battle, why didn't the altar get damaged? Even the moss on it is still there."
When everyone heard that, they all felt that it made sense.
The potholes were not far from the altar. Even if the attacks had deviated and did not land on the altar, at least the moss covering it should have been blown away by the strong wind.
Xiao Da said gravely, "In that case, there should be a barrier on the altar that can protect it from being damaged. However, no matter how powerful the barrier is, it can't withstand the corrosion of time and the desert environment. "
Mister Lu's eyes were burning. He said, "That should be the case." His tone was somewhat excited and he could not help but go forward to check it out.
Xiao Da stretched out his hand to stop him. Then, he waved his hand to his left and right. The twenty guards immediately surrounded them and slowly walked towards the altar.
Suddenly, a mournful voice rang out from the altar. It pierced through the sky and pierced everyone's ears.
That voice did not sound like a human's voice. It was like a god's howl and a ghost's cry. It reflected a gloomy fog and gloomy clouds. It was a scene of seclusion that made one's hair stand on end.
Everyone hurriedly retreated. The twenty guards also spread out two to three hundred meters away. They all stared nervously at the altar.
That voice did not stop. It continued to cry out mournfully. It reverberated between heaven and earth. It was like an unwilling struggle and a cry.
It lasted for a full half a cup of tea's time before the voice suddenly stopped.
The atmosphere suddenly became strange. Everyone looked at each other in dismay. They felt uneasy.
Zhuge Shi's expression was unsightly. He said, "Xiao Da, what was that thing that was screaming?"
Xiao Da did not know either. His expression was also not good. He commanded the guards and said, "Go and take a look."
The twenty guards carefully walked over. After half a cup of tea's time, they finally reached the side of the altar. Clearly, they were also a little afraid.
The altar was in the shape of a pyramid. They stepped on the steps from three sides without any obstruction.
Soon, all twenty of them reached the top of the altar. It was a flat roof that was about half a mu in size.
"Lord Xiao, we did not discover anything unusual." A guard walked to the edge of the top and reported to Xiao Da.
Xiao Da's expression was difficult. If they discovered something, it would be easier to deal with it. Now that they did not discover anything, they were even more passive.
Hu Tong stared at the altar for a while. Then, he said, "This barrier should be able to block intense energy fluctuations. It should not be able to obstruct ordinary things."
Hu Tong picked up a weathered stone and tossed it at the altar. With a few thuds, it landed on the steps.
Then, Hu Tong raised his hand and sent out a palm technique. "Rumble!" It was like a long dragon. Shockwaves spread out as it attacked.
Boom!
The Qi wave was blocked by a force when it was ten meters away from the altar.
Not only that, but the shockwave was also completely reflected by the barrier. The move was exactly the same. It was like giving Hu Tong a taste of his own medicine.
Xiao Da was the first to wave his hand, blocking that shockwave in front of Hu Tong. "Mister Hu Tong is truly wise."
Hu Tong's face was filled with joy. He said excitedly, "This sort of barrier that can separate energy fluctuations can only be set up by some powerful existences. Furthermore, it can even completely reflect the energy. Even in the Central Great Realm, I have never heard of any faction setting up such a barrier. My trip this time around would not have been in vain if I were to merely obtain the knowledge of world spirit techniques. "
"Since that is the case, I will have to trouble the two of you. The twenty guards will go to the altar to protect the two of you. We will stand guard below the altar in case any wild beasts appear. "
Xiao Da was also very happy. After all, he had spent so many spirit stones and time. If he did not obtain anything, he would not be able to explain it to his superiors.
The faction behind the Drunken Sky Hall also attached great importance to the discovery of the ruins. They originally wanted to send experts to the Void Sky City to explore the ruins. However, they were afraid of attracting the attention of the Void Sky City. Therefore, they did not make any moves. They ordered the Drunken Sky Hall to organize their own manpower and figure out the situation in the ruins as quickly as possible.
