"What's in the Ancient Ruins? Why are so many people paying attention to it? "
"No one knows what's in the Ancient Ruins. Sometimes, fairy weapons appear in these independent spaces of antiquity times. But sometimes, there's nothing and there's even danger. However, the last time the Ancient Ruins appeared was thousands of years ago. No one knows the origin of the Ancient Ruins and which powerful person in antiquity times created it!"
"Then why are so many people running to it?"
"Danger and opportunity coexist. Otherwise, Moon Deer of Extended Net wouldn't be in such a mess!" Jin Yuquan just sneered.
"However, according to the rules of the Immortal Palace, even if he found the Ancient Ruins and obtained benefits from it, the Immortal Palace wouldn't care, right?"
"Yes, the premise is that he can handle it. Now, you see, he hasn't settled it and has dragged us into it!"
"Maybe this is a good thing!"
"Good my ass!" Jin Yuquan shook his head and said, "Don't think that there are any good things in the Ancient Ruins. There are rare treasures everywhere. Let me tell you, since the Middle Ages, there have been countless experts buried in the Ancient Ruins. Even those with Fiery Eyes might not be able to escape unscathed, not to mention the bloodline of Fiery Eyes is extinct today!"
"You seem to know a lot about the Fiery Eyes!" Junior Leopard asked casually. "There are many legends about the Fiery Eyes in the world, but I've never heard of the Fiery Eyes being of any help to the Ancient Ruins!" "The Ancient Ruins haven't appeared for thousands of years. Very few people know about it.
"The Ancient Ruins hasn't appeared for thousands of years, and few people know about it. It's normal that you haven't heard of it. As for the Fiery Eyes, there are many theories circulating among the upper echelons of Jianghu, but these are just hearsay. Except for the real owner of the Fiery Eyes, no one can understand the real function of the Fiery Eyes. As for the Fiery Eyes, the outsiders can only confirm that it can greatly enhance the owner's spiritual mind and is the best material for refining External Elixir. At the same time, it can clearly see the Ancient Ruins. As for other things, it's up to the benevolent to the wise!"
"Then why did they destroy the bloodline of the Fiery Eyes that year?"
"The destruction of the Fiery Eyes bloodline is very strange. Even our Immortal Palace doesn't know who came up with the idea. You know, because of the great potential of the Fiery Eyes possessors, all the sects in the martial arts world frantically searched for disciples with the Fiery Eyes bloodline and trained them. Because of this, all the people with the Fiery Eyes bloodline were gathered in all the big sects, including the Tian Long Taoism, the Sect of Flame, the Dark Sect, and so on. But one day, all the people with the Fiery Eyes bloodline in all the big sects rebelled together, which caused the whole world to hunt them down. Slowly, it became a big event that affected the whole martial arts world and the world. Those big sects not only hunted down the disciples who rebelled, but also all the people with the Fiery Eyes bloodline. All this seemed to be agreed upon. In just three years, all the people with the Fiery Eyes bloodline were wiped out!"
"Did our Immortal Palace not participate in this matter?"
"No, the Immortal Palace has never done this kind of senseless thing. Moreover, this matter is obviously related to the secrets of those big schools. Later, the actions of those big schools also proved this point. As long as the bloodline of the Fiery Eyes appears in this world, they will immediately appear and kill the person. They are determined to destroy the entire bloodline!"
"Is the Immortal Palace not interested in this kind of thing?"
"There is no Fiery Eyes possessor in the Immortal Palace, so this matter has nothing to do with the Immortal Palace!" Golden Rooster shook his head and said, "Moreover, this is the secrets of those big schools. Inquiring about other people's secrets is taboo in Jianghu. The Immortal Palace will not do such a strenuous and unrewarding thing!"
"That's true. But now that the Ancient Ruins have appeared, it would be great if there was a person with the bloodline of the Fiery Eyes!"
"Well, don't attract that kind of trouble. Having the Fiery Eyes is not necessarily a good thing!" Jin Yuquan shook his head and glanced at Junior Leopard. "However, if you can get a Fiery Eye as an External Elixir, it will be a good thing!"
Junior Leopard did not speak again. He just smiled and rushed forward with his head down.
They traveled for another day and met several groups of experts along the way. Among these groups of experts, there were only two people like them, and there were only three or four people. Everyone kept a certain distance from each other when they met, and they didn't greet each other, nor did they speak to each other, and they didn't start a conflict.
Junior Leopard and Golden Rooster were dressed like the 28 constellations of the Immortal Palace. Among these experts, those whose cultivation was above Level Eight seemed to know about the existence of the Immortal Palace. Even if they did not know their origins, they naturally knew that these two people were not to be trifled with. Based on the principle that it was better to avoid trouble, they of course avoided them as much as possible. Therefore, the two of them did not encounter any trouble along the way.
After flying for a day, even though their cultivation was very high, they still felt tired. Standing in the air and looking at the vast blue waves under their feet, Junior Leopard said with a wry smile, "Golden Rooster, the East Sea is vast and boundless. Where should we go to find Moon Deer of Extended Net?"
"Follow those people. I can now be sure that Moon Deer of Extended Net's being chased has something to do with the Ancient Ruins. Although we don't know where the Ancient Ruins are, judging from the direction of the group of people we met today, it should be in the east. Moon Deer of Extended Net's cultivation is at Level Seven, which is not as good as you and I. After being chased for so long, he should be injured and can't run far. Either he is unlucky and has been chased, or he is very lucky and has entered the Ancient Ruins.
No one can say for sure! "
"Well, let's take a rest and go. I guess the road ahead is not long!"
"Let's go!"
… …
… …
The East Sea was very big. As far as the eye could see, there was nothing but seawater. Occasionally, a few lonely islands could be seen, poking their heads out of the boundless sea, but it seemed as if they would be swallowed by the huge waves at any time.
The two of them traveled for another half a day until the sky was completely dark, and the bright moonlight rose above the surface of the sea. Only then did they stop.
In front of them was a big island with a radius of about 100 miles. The island was covered with undulating mountains, which stretched for about 100 miles and occupied more than half of the island.
The two of them stood in the air, about five kilometers away from the island. However, they could still hear the rumbling coming from the island, as well as the occasional explosion of astral energy.
"Is this the place?"
"Almost!"
They covered their spirit and slowly landed on the island.
"Luo Haiyun, do you think you can escape from the Wang Family?"
"The Wang Family of Cenzhou?"
As soon as he landed on the island, the roar reached Junior Leopard's ears. "The world is really f * cking small. Even in this remote place, I can still meet people from the Wang Family!"
"Luo Haiyun is Moon Deer of Extended Net. He is the current Family Head of the Luo Family of Minshan Commandery in Cenzhou. The Luo Family of Minshan Commandery is also a century-old distinguished family. However, compared with the Wang Family, which is a millennium family, it is much weaker!"
Junior Leopard nodded, "Then what should we do now? Should we go and save him?"
"Let's wait and see. Moon Deer of Extended Net has a defensive celestial device. It's not easy to win, but it's more than enough to protect himself!"
Junior Leopard nodded with understanding and turned his eyes to the battlefield.
At this time, the fight in the field had become white-hot. Luo Haiyun was a middle-aged man with a dignified appearance. But now he was in a mess. His brocade robe had been torn and hung on his body with blood. His messy hair was covered with sweat. His face was very pale because of excessive blood loss. His whole body was wrapped in a layer of yellow Gang Qi. However, as the Gang Qi flickered, it was a little dim. It seemed that he could not hold on for long.
He was besieged by four Level Seven experts wearing the same style of clothes. In Junior Leopard's eyes, these clothes were somewhat similar to the clothes of the servants of the Wang family he saw on the prairie. But compared with the servants in cyan, these people's clothes were golden and much more imposing. Naturally, the clothes they used could not be compared with those of the little servants.
Their bodies flashed with various colors of Gang Qi, and they fiercely crashed into Luo Haiyun. In terms of cultivation, they were not much different, but they had an absolute advantage in numbers. Most importantly, there was an expert wearing the same style on the sidelines, but the color of his clothes was dark gold. The spirit of this person was a Level Eight expert.
"Didn't you say that he has a defensive celestial device? Why doesn't it work? "Junior Leopard transmitted his voice to Golden Rooster.
"It seems that he has already used it, so he can live until now!" Golden Rooster stared at the expert in dark gold clothes. "Wang Yuebai, I didn't expect him to come!"
"Wang Yuebai, the first expert of the Wang family?"
"Not only him, look at the saber in his hand. It should be the Pero Purple Striped Saber, the most precious magic weapon of the Wang family. Only this saber can break Moon Deer of Extended Net's Marvelous Rotating Wheel. But look at his trembling hands, it means that he has been seriously injured in order to break the Marvelous Rotating Wheel. That's why he is watching on the sidelines!"
"Then what should we do?" Junior Leopard couldn't help clenching his fists. Now he and the Wang family in Cenzhou were enemies. If he could take this opportunity to kill these experts of the Wang family and greatly weaken the strength of the Wang family, it was definitely a good thing to kill two birds with one stone.
Although the Wang family was a millennium family, it could not have too many experts, let alone Wang Yuebai, the first expert of the Wang family!
"Look at Moon Deer of Extended Net. It seems that the Luo family of Minshan Prefecture is finished. The hatred between the two sides is irreconcilable!"
"Then what are we waiting for?"
"There's nothing to wait for!" Golden Rooster said. He stood out from his hiding place and shouted, "Friends of the Wang family, stop!"
"Who are you?" Wang Yuebai turned around abruptly. When he saw Golden Rooster's costume, his expression became ugly.
"Immortal Palace?"
"Sun Rooster of Immortal Palace, Water Leopard of Winnowing Basket!" Golden Rooster said. Behind him, Junior Leopard also showed up. "Your Excellency is holding the Pero Purple Striped Saber. You must be Wang Yuebai, the first expert of the Wang family?"
"I'm Wang Yuebai. What can I do for you?"
"Tell your people to stop. Luo Haiyun is Moon Deer of Extended Net, one of the 28 constellations of the Immortal Palace. If you don't stop, you will be the enemy of the Immortal Palace!"
Wang Yuebai's face suddenly became ugly.
"Luo Haiyun is one of the 28 constellations of the Immortal Palace?"
"That's right. Stop now!"
"Luo Haiyun is the archenemy of the Wang family. He killed three experts of the Wang family and more than a dozen masters of martial arts. We tried our best to trap him here …!"
"Humph!"
Golden Rooster interrupted him with a cold snort. His black robe fluttered without wind, and an invisible Qi Power emanated from his body, which was the unique spirit of a Level Eight expert. With a flash of golden light in his hands, his hands were instantly covered by a layer of golden iron claws. He turned his face slightly and said to Junior Leopard, "Bring Moon Deer of Extended Net out. If anyone tries to stop you, kill him!"
"Got it!" Junior Leopard nodded. His fingertips moved slightly, and a verdant green streamer moved like a snake. His figure, like a ghost, cut into the simple formation formed by the four people in the field.
"Your Excellency, don't go too far!" Seeing that Golden Rooster asked Junior Leopard to take action without saying a word, Wang Yuebai suddenly roared and held the Pero Purple Striped Saber horizontally in front of him. "You are from the Immortal Palace, but the Wang family of Cenzhou is not to be trifled with!"
"Ah —!"
"No!"
"Ding, ding, dang —!"
A few soft sounds came from the formation. After Junior Leopard cut into the formation of the four people, he didn't do anything at all, but the Blue Sword light flashed. The Blue Sword light with strange electric arcs repelled the four Level Seven experts in an instant.
"You are a sword practitioner —!"
Although he was confronting Golden Rooster, Junior Leopard's undisguised sharp Sword Qi could not be hidden from Wang Yuebai's eyes.
Junior Leopard didn't pay attention to him. He swept away the four experts of the Wang family with his sword and rushed to Luo Haiyun's side. Lifting Luo Haiyun, he flashed twice and came to Golden Rooster's side.
"What a fast speed! What a sharp sword technique! I didn't expect there were sword practitioners among the 28 constellations of the Immortal Palace!" Wang Yuebai gritted his teeth and said, "This time, the Wang family admits defeat. Let's go!"
With a wave of his hand, he called the other four Level Seven experts of the Wang family and left.
"He is a smart man!" Looking at the four people leaving, Golden Rooster smiled slightly, "I didn't expect that you didn't kill them just now. It really makes me curious!"
"Why should I kill them?" Junior Leopard said lightly, "Today we are here to save people, not to kill!"
"Yes, we are here to save people!" Golden Rooster nodded and glanced at Luo Haiyun, "Moon Deer of Extended Net, it seems that you are badly hurt!"
"Ahem, ahem —!" Moon Deer of Extended Net coughed twice fiercely and spat out a mouthful of bloody phlegm. He looked up at Golden Rooster, "This time I failed and the Luo family is finished. However, the Wang family didn't get what they wanted, so I'm willing —!"
"Don't even think about it. You are a member of the Immortal Palace, so you naturally know the rules of our Immortal Palace for accepting jobs. We won't be enemies with the Wang family of Cenzhou for you!"
"Ahem, well, I see what you mean!" Moon Deer of Extended Net nodded and did not insist, "Anyway, thank you this time!"
"You are a member of the Immortal Palace. It is our duty to save you!" Golden Rooster's tone became indifferent again.
"Do you know why the Wang family sent so many forces to destroy the Luo family and hunt me down this time?"
"For the Ancient Ruins!"
"How do you know?" Luo Haiyun was shocked.
"Now all the powerful influences and figures in the world know that we have met at least eight or nine groups of experts along the way!" Golden Rooster said coldly, "The Immortal Palace has confirmed that there is an Ancient Ruins above the East Sea, but we don't know where it is exactly!"
"Damn it!" Luo Haiyun beat his thigh fiercely with an indignant look on his face.
"This time, you are too greedy. If you had informed the Immortal Palace earlier, this would not have happened!" Golden Rooster patted his shoulder with a trace of sympathy flashing across his face, "The experts of the Wang family chased you for tens of thousands of miles and wanted to kill you as soon as possible. It seems that the Luo family is finished!"
"This hatred is absolutely irreconcilable!" Luo Haiyun took a deep breath, trembling all over and gnashing his teeth. Even Junior Leopard could feel the boundless resentment in him.
Golden Rooster and Junior Leopard looked at each other and didn't mention this matter again. Anyone who was involved in this kind of family destruction would be enraged. Moreover, it was obvious that he was the one who provoked it.
"Old Luo, do you think we should go back to the Immortal Palace or go to the Ancient Ruins to try our luck?" Jin Yuquan waited for a while and saw that Luo Haiyun's breath had calmed down, then he asked.
"Of course we go to the Ancient Ruins. Humph, even if the news of the Ancient Ruins is leaked out, so what? Even if those guys know that the Ancient Ruins appeared in the East Sea, so what? They don't know the specific location and how to enter the Ancient Ruins!"
"Do you know?"
"Of course I know!" Luo Haiyun gently raised his head, his eyes shining with extreme resentment. "I also know which school this Ancient Ruins belongs to in the antiquity times and what might be in it!"
"No wonder the Wang Family is desperate to kill you. If it were me, I'm afraid I wouldn't be able to resist this temptation, would I?" Hearing this, Golden Rooster smiled bitterly and said, "You're too bold. How dare you keep such a good thing to yourself!"
Luo Haiyun did not speak, but the muscles on his face twitched, which made people feel cold.
Golden Rooster took out a small porcelain bottle from his arms and handed it to him. "Take this Qi Nourishing Elixir first and adjust your breath for a while. When you recover a little, let's go to the Ancient Ruins together!"
… …
… …
"First Elder, are we just going to let it go? We destroyed the whole Luo Family in Minshan Commandery, leaving only Luo Haiyun. He's the root of trouble!"
"He's a big trouble, but we can't kill him now!" Wang Yuebai sighed. "I didn't expect him to be a member of the Immortal Palace. We should immediately report this matter to the Family Head and let him take precautions!"
"But —!"
"Do you think we can stop them with only three of them and five of us here?" Wang Yuebai sneered. "They are all members of the 28 constellations of the Immortal Palace. We didn't know them before. It's okay to chase Luo Haiyun, but now there are two more. If we kill them all, we will become enemies with the Immortal Palace, which I dare not do. Besides, one of them is a Level Eight expert and the other is a sword practitioner. We don't have the strength to stop them at all. That sword practitioner forced the four of you to retreat with only one sword move, which shows his strength. When I broke Luo Haiyun's celestial device, I was hurt by his celestial device and my Pero Purple Striped Saber was also damaged, which greatly reduced my combat capability. Not to mention stopping them, if we really have a conflict, more than half of us will be left!"
"But …!"
"No buts. This matter is too serious. We should immediately inform the Family Head and let him decide. If this matter is serious, it is likely to be related to the life and death of our Wang Family. The Immortal Palace is not like other families. They are a powerful force handed down from antiquity times. Their foundation is much deeper than that of the well-known families, noble barons, and thousand-year-old schools in the modern world. There are many experts in the Immortal Palace. If we provoke them, we might as well find a piece of tofu to kill ourselves!"
"So we are at the mercy of the Immortal Palace?"
"That's not true!" Wang Yuebai shook his head. "They are not the only force handed down from antiquity times like the Immortal Palace. Besides, they all have a set of conventional rules and constraints. They will never act like these schools and well-known families in the modern world. It's one thing for them to save Luo Haiyun, but another thing for them to avenge him. Therefore, we only need to worry about Luo Haiyun, not Immortal Palace. Otherwise, the world would have been in chaos!"
"First Elder, do you mean that these forces handed down from antiquity times will not interfere in Jianghu at will?" One person asked cautiously.
Wang Yuebai glanced at him and sighed. "I'm just a Level Eight. How can I know so many things? Let's go back. Everything is decided by the Family Head!"
"What about the Ancient Ruins? Do we really give up?" Another person asked.
"What else can we do? Things have come to this point. Do you think Luo Haiyun will take us to the Ancient Ruins? Do you think we can follow the three of them with our strength? " Wang Yuebai said with a wry smile, "Old Ding, don't think so much. Didn't you notice how many groups of experts we met along the way? It means that the information about the Ancient Ruins has been leaked, and the family head has also learned the information. He must have a plan to deal with it now. We just need to report the information about the Immortal Palace and wait for the family head to dispatch us!"
… …
… …
"Are you sure that the Ancient Ruins are the ruins of the Small Thunder Temple?"
On the other side, Golden Rooster couldn't help exclaiming as he listened to Luo Haiyun's description of the Ancient Ruins.
"Yes, it's the ruins of the Small Thunder Temple!" Luo Haiyun said expressionlessly.
"I didn't expect it to be the ruins of the Small Thunder Temple. It actually appeared at this time. What a pity, even if we go in, I'm afraid we won't get any benefits. However, the Small Thunder Temple was destroyed by the Demon Race in ancient times and everything was plundered. Even if we go in, we won't get any benefits!"
"Not necessarily!" Luo Haiyun said coldly. "The Demon Tribe in antiquity times didn't find the underground palace of the Small Thunder Temple!"
