Chaotic Demonic Ocean was far enough from True Spirit Continent, but Richlight Oceanspan was even farther. It was already in the depths of the southern ocean. There were few people here, but many oceanic beasts were plentiful. However, due to the vile environment, the oceanic beasts were cruel, bloodthirsty, and had low intelligence.
The group of eleven flew above the ocean, encountering the attacks of oceanic beasts and flying demonic beasts from time to time. Moreover, they came in large groups, numbering in the thousands and tens of thousands. The group was quite annoyed, and their speed kept decreasing, wasting a lot of time.
Only after three days did they reach their destination.
The bronze-skinned man was called Jin Wanshuang, an 'old man' of Richlight Oceanspan. Relying on his good luck and ability to judge the situation, he had obtained a lot of treasures. With these treasures, as well as thousands of extreme battles, his strength had long since reached the profound realm of half-step Kings. Although few people had seen him fight and didn't know his exact strength, no one dared to look down on him. After dozens of years, those 'old men' of Richlight Oceanspan had either died or left. Only he was alive and well.
Standing at the front of the team, Jin Wanshuang turned around and said, "The ruins are three hundred thousand meters below the seabed. Remember, follow me later. There is a huge water array around the ruins. Although it's badly damaged, the slightest carelessness will cause you to be attacked by it. I'm sure everyone knows what will happen if you cause too much of a commotion three hundred thousand meters below the seabed."
"We're naturally aware of this. We'll follow you."
The only old man in the group spoke for the first time. His face was full of wrinkles, showing the traces of time and the vicissitudes of life.
"Alright, let's go."
Jin Wanshuang's figure flickered, turning into a golden rainbow and shooting down.
Swish Swish Swish …
Ye Chen and the others followed behind him, not leaving even an inch behind.
Three hundred thousand meters was an extremely dangerous depth for ordinary Sea of Soul realm experts. The water pressure here was unimaginably powerful. As long as there was a hole in the Protective Zhen Yuan, one would instantly be squeezed into a meatball. Even if a half-step King retracted his Protective Zhen Yuan, his life would still be in danger.
However, apart from Ye Chen, the rest were all half-step Kings. As long as they were a bit careful and didn't get careless, the chances of something happening were very low.
Soon, everyone arrived at a depth of 300,000 meters. The huge water pressure caused their speed to become slower and slower. They were not even 1% of their speed on land.
The bottom of the deep sea wasn't pitch-black. There were many glowing things here, including glowing crystal corals and small glowing creatures. There was a kind of creature with a shining tail and a perfectly round body the size of a thumb. It looked extremely hard, like a solid metal ball.
About dozens of meters above the seabed, everyone was wrapped in a colorful protective layer of Zhen Yuan, slowly swimming forward.
After a cup of tea's worth of time, Jin Wanshuang's voice came through the vibration of his Zhen Yuan, "We're here. This is the outer area of the ruins, covered by the water element formation. Everyone, be careful and follow me."
Everyone nodded and looked ahead. In the dim seabed, there were many white jade stone pillars that were dozens of meters tall. The surface of the stone pillars was carved with complicated water patterns. From time to time, there would be blue flowing lights following the traces of the water patterns, attracting many spherical creatures to come closer.
Jin Wanshuang waved his hand and began swimming toward the stone pillars.
No one knew how big the stone pillars were. If it weren't for Jin Wanshuang leading the way, they might have gotten lost in the stone pillars and couldn't find their way out. It should be known that the reason why a formation was called a formation was that it wouldn't have too many flaws. For example, the seemingly safest place, the sky, might actually be the most dangerous. Therefore, no one swam to the top of the white jade stone pillars. They all maintained a height of dozens of meters.
"Many of these white jade stone pillars have already been broken or collapsed. If we follow the broken pillars, the formation won't be triggered."
Ye Chen finally saw through it.
No matter how big the stone pillars were, there was still a limit. Everyone followed behind Jin Wanshuang, turning here and there, sometimes taking a big circle. Finally, they passed through the entire stone pillar group and arrived in front of a dilapidated but exceptionally grand building complex. The tallest building was over a thousand meters tall, standing at the bottom of the ocean. The shortest was an arched gate at the front, which was at least seventy to eighty meters tall.
It was clearly not Jin Wanshuang's first time here. He explained, "This is the ruin I've found. However, I've only explored less than one-tenth of it, and this arched door is the only entrance. We need to break the restrictions on this door to enter."
"That's easy. Let us do it!"
The two brothers walked up. The older one took out a human-sized axe, while the younger one took out two machetes.
Jin Wanshuang didn't object. The restriction on the arched gate wasn't that high leveled. With the two's strength, it was more than enough to break it. If they couldn't, then there was no point in entering the ruin. It was too dangerous.
Ha!
The two brothers roared at the same time. The axe and machetes slashed toward the arched gate. Their speed was so fast that even at the seabed, it was enough to raise everyone's eyebrows.
Kacha!
The arched gate flickered, and a huge hole appeared.
"Come, let's go in."
Jin Wanshuang led the group and entered through the hole.
The moment everyone entered, the hole had already been repaired. The light was withdrawn, and there was nothing strange about it from the outside.
The ruin was very dilapidated. The buildings were all over the place, and there were some places where the ground had caved in. Black qi was surging inside, and it was immeasurably deep. A single glance would make one dizzy. No one knew what had happened here. Ye Chen used his soul power to sense it and vaguely felt a trace of evil aura. The moment his soul power touched this aura, an illusion and a bad omen immediately appeared in his mind. It was a bit like a curse.
"This place is indeed an ominous place."
Ye Chen transmitted his Zhen yuan to Murong Qingcheng, telling her to be on guard at all times.
"I also felt it. Just now, when I used my demonic eyes to observe, I seemed to have seen a blurry shadow flash through the buildings."
Murong Qingcheng replied.
"Since we're already here, we'll just deal with it."
Ye Chen was not the kind of person who was overly worried.
Following the passageway, the group walked here and there, and soon reached the depths of the building complex, arriving in front of a winding corridor.
The carvings on the pillars on both sides of the corridor were very strange. They were all bronze armored warriors. No one knew if it was for the sake of realism or something, but the weapons of the bronze armored warriors were forcibly inserted into the pillars. Holding the weapons in their hands, the postures were all different.
"I've never been here before."
Jin Wanshuang only said one sentence before walking in front.
"They're just decorations."
The twin brothers were the most unscrupulous, touching here and there. They even wanted to pull out the weapons of the bronze armored warriors, not knowing the meaning of caution.
The corridor was rather long, and unknowingly, the group arrived at the center.
Crack!
A faint sound was heard.
"What's that sound?" The middle-aged woman stopped.
"Watch out!"
The group behind her raised their heads and saw that the bronze armored warrior on the pillar to the right of the middle-aged woman had opened its eyes, shooting out a red light.
Rumble!
The bronze armored warrior jumped down and slashed at the middle-aged woman's head with its saber.
This scene happened too quickly. The bronze armored warrior seemed to have broken through the limits of space and appeared above the middle-aged woman. Ye Chen could clearly see that the bronze armored warrior and the pillar were not embedded, but connected by an array. Therefore, after the bronze armored warrior jumped down, the pillar still had its carvings, but they were not as realistic as before.
The middle-aged woman was not a small character. She was very, very powerful. Apart from Thunder Spirit King and Blackwater Alliance's Wang Taiyi, Ye Chen had never seen anyone stronger than her. Of course, that was in the past. After arriving at Foursquare Island, Ye Chen had already discarded his previous understanding. There were too many half-step Kings on the island, and there were also many half-step Kings with unfathomable depths. Among the eleven present, which one of them was simple? If they were to fall out, Ye Chen wouldn't dare to look down on any one of them. Under Life and Death realm, he was far from being invincible.
In the blink of an eye, the middle-aged woman's body faintly swayed, leaving behind a lifelike afterimage. The bronze armored warrior slashed down, cleaving the afterimage into two and dispersing it.
"You dare to have designs on this old lady!"
The middle-aged woman's temperament was unkind. She coiled her finger, and a black thread coiled around the bronze armored warrior's neck. With a forceful pull, a head was torn off.
"Let's go!"
Jin Wanshuang was very experienced. With a single glance, he could tell that the bronze armored warrior's strength was equivalent to an ordinary half-step King. The middle-aged woman didn't die because of her superior strength. However, the number of bronze armored warriors in the corridor was not just a few dozen, but several hundred. Eleven against several hundred bronze armored warriors was not an easy task.
Ka Ka Ka Ka!
Just as Jin Wanshuang's voice faded, the bronze armored warriors on the corridor revived one after another, crowding the corridor so tightly that not even a drop of water could trickle through.
Clang!
Ye Chen waved his sword and sent a bronze armored warrior flying. The opponent's bronze armor was extremely sturdy, and only a sword mark was left on it. It seemed that only the exposed parts of the armor were the weak points, such as the neck, eyes, and face.
"Let's go!"
"F * ck! So many!"
The group didn't have the time to face the bronze armored warriors head-on. They crazily ran, blowing away the bronze armored warriors blocking their way one after another, opening up a path for only one person.
At this moment, everyone's style was revealed.
Jin Wanshuang's attacks were simple and unadorned. They were not magnificent, but they were extremely effective. They were just right, not wasting the slightest bit of strength.
The experienced old man was not inferior to Jin Wanshuang. His withered palms seemed slow, but were actually fast. The bronze armored warriors on both sides were squeezed together, unable to exert their strength.
Although the yellow-faced man had suffered a loss at the hands of Ye Chen, he wasn't weak either. Holding a shield in one hand and a spear in the other, his footsteps were steady as he borrowed strength to counterattack.
The cold-faced youngster was a sword artist just like Ye Chen. His sword speed was extremely fast, and the bronze armored warriors pouncing at him were all blown away by his sword Qi, unable to climb back up for a long time.
On the other hand, Lin Yuxuan seemed to be somewhat inexperienced. His moves were wide and powerful, and the bronze armored warriors that were hit by him fell off one after another. Although it seemed like he was unstoppable, doing so in this kind of dangerous place was a bit too much of a waste of Zhen Yuan.
The yellow-robed lady was indeed one of the people that Ye Chen couldn't see through. From the beginning to the end, she hadn't made a single move, and those bronze armored warriors couldn't even touch her clothes.
