The necklace in Xing Jue's hand was not only beautiful but also very strange. Strange energy flowed within it. Just by holding it in his hand, one could feel that it was extraordinary, especially the rune-shaped pendant, which was even more mysterious. However, at this moment, how to activate this necklace had become Xing Jue's biggest problem.
"This necklace should be the key to the ruins, but how do I activate it?"
"Could it be the same as the Soul Devouring Order?"
Looking at the necklace in his hand, the first method that Xing Jue thought of was to activate the special function of the necklace by injecting his Soul Strength.
"Swoosh"
Thinking of this, Xing Jue did not hesitate. With a slight thought, a wisp of dark Soul Strength drilled into the necklace like a small black snake.
"Bang"
However, when the wisp of Soul Strength drilled into the necklace, the necklace suddenly emitted a wisp of tyrannical energy ripple. Although the area of the energy ripple was not big, when it hit Xing Jue's body, it forced Xing Jue to take a few steps back before he could stabilize his body. Moreover, he also broke away from Xing Jue's hand and fell to the ground.
This sudden change also shocked Xing Jue. However, at this moment, Xing Jue could also confirm that this necklace must be the key to the ruins, otherwise, such an unforeseen event would not have happened.
After that, Xing Jue hurriedly picked up the necklace that had fallen to the ground, wanting to see if there were any changes to the necklace.
"Strange, there are no changes? There was clearly an energy wave just now. "
However, what made Xing Jue puzzled was that the necklace did not have any changes that Xing Jue had imagined. Instead, it was the same as before, which really made it difficult for Xing Jue.
After that, he used a few different methods, but still could not find anything special about this necklace. Other than the energy wave produced by injecting Soul Strength into it, the other methods could not activate this necklace at all.
At this moment, Xing Jue was anxiously pacing back and forth in the room. From time to time, he would glance at the necklace on the table. However, Xing Jue really couldn't figure out how to activate the necklace.
"Got it!!!"
"It must be so."
Suddenly, Xing Jue stopped walking. Excitement and anticipation surged onto his face. Then, he turned his excited gaze back to the necklace on the table.
Because at this moment, Xing Jue felt that he had guessed 80% of the method to open the necklace. As for the method, it was still to instill strength into this necklace. However, it was not soul energy, but battle qi. It was the same as the method he had used to unlock the map fragment of the ancient ruins.
Xing Jue quickly walked to the table and picked up the necklace. Then, with a thought, a wisp of crimson Battle Qi drilled into the necklace.
"Buzz ~"
Sure enough, after the wisp of Battle Qi flowed into the necklace, the necklace flickered with a resplendent radiance. Moreover, four words formed from runes flashed on the radiance.
"Hidden Dragon Plains?"
Looking at the words formed from runes, a look of ecstasy appeared on Xing Jue's face. He finally knew the location of the ruins. Moreover, the Hidden Dragon Plains was not far from the Fenghua Mi City and could be reached directly through the teleportation array. It would only take one day.
After learning about this, Xing Jue no longer hesitated. After informing Old Cang and Old Feng, he prepared to head towards the Hidden Dragon Plains.
In order to prevent any accidents from happening to Xing Jue, Old Cang strongly requested to go with Xing Jue. After all, with his current strength, there was almost no one in the inner area who could harm Xing Jue.
However, Xing Jue did not want Old Cang to reveal his strength at this moment because it was not the right time to fight against the alliance. If Old Cang revealed his strength now, it would inevitably cause unnecessary trouble.
Moreover, Xing Jue briefly mentioned the ruins to Old Cang. After knowing that Xing Jue had the key to the ruins, Old Cang finally felt relieved.
At this moment, Xing Jue could be said to be in high spirits. An unconcealable smile hung on his face as he leisurely walked towards the ancient teleportation array outside the Fenghua Mi City.
Currently, the ancient teleportation array was under the control of the Asura Palace. Looking at the endless queue of people in front of the teleportation array, Xing Jue suddenly recalled the first time he used the ancient teleportation array after entering the inner area.
That teleportation array was still under the control of the Golden Silver Mountain Villa. Furthermore, Xing Jue had been put in a difficult position by them. Whenever he thought of the Golden Silver Mountain Villa, a trace of anger would rise in Xing Jue's heart. Xing Jue would always remember the faction that had once targeted the Asura Palace.
This time, after completely falling out with the alliance, Xing Jue would completely eradicate the Golden Silver Mountain Villa while destroying the alliance, to avenge what they had done to him.
"Your subordinate greets the Palace Master."
Before Xing Jue could approach, the few Asura Palace Elders in charge of the ancient teleportation array saw Xing Jue. They quickly came to Xing Jue's side and respectfully saluted him.
Their actions had also attracted the attention of the people in the queue. When they saw Xing Jue, waves of exclamations and discussions broke out.
Most of them had only heard of Xing Jue, the young Palace Master of the Asura Palace, but had never seen him in person. When they saw Xing Jue today, their eyes were filled with surprise. That was because Xing Jue was too young. If it wasn't for the fact that the few Elders addressed him as Xing Jue, they would never believe that such a young man was the Palace Master of the Asura Palace.
One should know that the current Asura Palace was no longer the same as when they first entered the inner area. Through special recruitment methods, the Asura Palace had expanded rapidly. Even among the many subordinate forces of the alliance, the Asura Palace could be considered as one of the best.
However, Xing Jue only smiled at the amazed gazes around him. He ignored them and continued walking towards the ancient teleportation array.
Every time a member of the Asura Palace came to pay him a visit, he could always feel the gazes of the people around him. Therefore, Xing Jue had long gotten used to this phenomenon. Xing Jue could understand the reactions of the crowd. Most people would blindly worship and admire those with strength and status.
"Xing Jue!" However, just as Xing Jue was about to step into the ancient teleportation array, Elder Feng's shout suddenly came from behind Xing Jue.
When he turned around, he saw Elder Feng getting out of a carriage made of beasts and walking quickly towards him.
"Master, what's wrong?" Xing Jue quickly turned around and asked Elder Feng with a puzzled expression, "Master, what's wrong?"
"Xing Jue, are you saying that you're going to the Hidden Dragon Plains?" Elder Feng asked nervously.
"Yes." However, looking at Elder Feng's expression, Xing Jue couldn't help but frown. He could feel that something was about to happen.
"Xing Jue, I've just received an order from the Union Palace."
"The content of the order is for you to head to the Hidden Dragon Plains and assist the creditors of the Hidden Dragon Stronghold in investigating the strange phenomenon that occurred in the Hidden Dragon Plains," Elder Feng said slowly.
"Strange phenomenon? What kind of strange phenomenon? "At this moment, Xing Jue revealed a surprised expression and hurriedly asked.
"I'm not sure about the details, but it seems that the Union Palace has sent an order to all the forces around the Hidden Dragon Stronghold, requesting them to assist the Hidden Dragon Stronghold in investigating the source of the strange phenomenon. Moreover, the strange phenomenon appeared today," Elder Feng added.
"The strange phenomenon that appeared today? This … Could it be caused by me? "After hearing Elder Feng's words, Xing Jue was shocked and mumbled to himself.
"Xing Jue, I think it's better if you ask the Heroic Emperor to accompany you," Elder Feng said worriedly.
The leaders of the nearby forces were all Battle-Emperors, and this time, all of them had gathered at the Hidden Dragon Plains. Elder Feng was very worried that something might happen to Xing Jue.
"Don't worry, master. I'm not a Battle-King yet, so I'm not afraid of them playing any tricks on me." As if he had seen through Elder Feng's worries, Xing Jue faintly smiled and said.
"Alright, but this time, you can't head directly to the Hidden Dragon Plains. You have to first go to the Hidden Dragon Stronghold and meet with the leaders of the various forces," Elder Feng reminded him.
"Yes." In response to Elder Feng's reminder, Xing Jue nodded with a smile.
Then, under Elder Feng's slightly worried gaze, he entered the ancient teleportation array and headed toward the Hidden Dragon Plains.
The Hidden Dragon Plains was an extremely vast land, and the Hidden Dragon Stronghold was the ruler of this area. At the same time, it was also one of the subordinate forces of the Union Palace.
The chief of the stronghold was a high level Battle-King. With a high level Battle-King overseeing the faction, one could imagine the overall strength of the stronghold.
Therefore, in terms of true strength, the Hidden Dragon Stronghold was merely a third-rate faction of the Union Palace, an existence at the bottom. Not only did the Union Palace not look favorably upon them, they were also frequently looked down upon by the other forces. If not for the fact that their ancestors had signed a special agreement with the Union Palace, the Hidden Dragon Stronghold would have long been kicked out of the main camp of the Union Palace.
However, on this day, a strange phenomenon suddenly occurred in the vast plains that the Hidden Dragon Stronghold was in charge of. A strand of strange light suddenly shot out from the plains, forming a gigantic wheel of light that spiraled in the sky above the plains.
This sudden unusual phenomenon caused the chief of the Hidden Dragon Stronghold to be greatly alarmed. He immediately informed the Alliance Mansion. However, the Hidden Dragon Stronghold's strength was too weak. The Alliance Mansion even ordered the surrounding factions to rush to the Hidden Dragon Plains at the first instance to investigate the source of this unusual phenomenon.
Therefore, there were already several leaders of the Union Palace forces gathered here. Within the Hidden Dragon Stronghold, the chief of the stronghold treated everyone with great hospitality. After all, every single one of them was an existence that was stronger than him.
At this moment, Xing Jue was also present. His eyes were fixed on the slowly rotating wheel of light in the sky. At this moment, even Xing Jue sucked in a breath of cold air as he looked at the terrifying colossus. Through his unique Spiritual Force, Xing Jue seemed to sense a unique power within the wheel. It was time.
