"It should only take a day for the Tu Nation's Brown Flag Army to arrive at Runyu City. What should we do then?" Advisor Yao said anxiously.
The army was pressing forward. No matter how many Dragon Shepherds and Divine Mortals they had, they would not be able to fight against the endless army of the Tu Nation!
The Tu Nation's ambition was enormous. They had just declared war on the Yao Nation and invaded their territory, yet they immediately sent another army to Runyu City.
"They must have been planning to attack the Yao Nation for a long time. The Brown Spear Army stationed here was originally deployed to attack the Yao Nation. Now that the war has begun, they must want to take back this place and use it as a springboard for their expansion," Hu Chongming said in a deep voice.
In the end, they still couldn't prevent Runyu City from being ravaged by war. This time, the Brown Flag Army would most likely be an even bigger army. The people here wouldn't be able to hold on much longer.
"It's not like there's no hope. If we find the Fiend Dragon in the ancient ruins and inform the keeper of order of Green Ox Mountain in time, I'm sure he won't allow the Tu Nation's army to enter Runyu City," Hu Bailing said.
"One day should be enough. We'll go look for the Fiend Dragon. You guys stay in the city. If we can't find it, we'll give up on Runyu City. Where there's life, there's life," Zhu Minglang said to the Hu siblings.
Naturally, the Hu Clan's army was the most persistent about Runyu City. They hoped to rebuild their home.
Zhu Minglang's side was fine. It wasn't something they couldn't give up. If the overall situation was determined, it wouldn't be a big deal to leave it to the Tu Nation. If worse came to worst, they could just hide and wait for the right opportunity to take over the city.
"Yes, we understand. Don't worry, we won't make meaningless sacrifices. But you guys, if you really want to go to the ancient ruins, you must be careful," Hu Chongming said.
…
Based on the clues Hu Chongming brought back, Dawnstar Painting began to search for the ancient ruins hidden in Runyu City.
Prophets were not omnipotent. Something they wanted to know was like a broken jigsaw puzzle in the mind of a Prophet. The more relevant pieces and clues they found and pieced together, the more accurate the information they obtained.
The information provided by Hu Chongming was especially crucial. It narrowed down the search area of the Prophets, and they could also deduce the location of the Ancient Rift through some of the previous small enlistments.
"Are you sure it's here?" Zhu Minglang asked.
Standing in the poplar forest of Raining Rain City, the warm winter didn't damage the forest scenery in the city. It was still lush and green.
Yang Shulin was at the edge of the city, and many abandoned fruit groves were also here. At a glance, one could see many small wooden houses scattered in the forest, but unfortunately, they were all covered in moss.
In the past, there should have been many tree farmers and fruit farmers living here. On the way here, there was also a fruit town, which was also dilapidated and uninhabited.
"Xing Hua, there's a huge stone tablet over there." Nan Lingsha pointed at the edge of the forest.
"Let's go take a look."
The three of them walked towards the large stone tablet that was almost covered by the lush vines. The stone tablet was surrounded by weeds that were even taller than a person. The stone tablet was covered with vines, like a strange tree that was wrapped up by vines, standing tall in the midst of the dense forest.
"Huhuhuhu ~ ~ ~ ~"
Suddenly, a chill swept over them, as if it came from the forest far away, mixed with a dark and rotten smell.
Zhu Minglang walked forward and pushed aside the vines in front of him. Very quickly, he ascertained that this special cold aura was coming from this abandoned stone tablet!
A spatial rift!
The stone tablet was where the rift was located!
It turned out that the other entrance to the Ancient Ruins was really in Raining Rain City. Zhu Minglang happily turned around and said, "It's here."
Li Xinghua gently pressed her hand on the stone tablet. In fact, her hand didn't make contact with the stone tablet, but a strange ripple appeared between her palm and the tablet. It was like an extremely peaceful lake, reflecting a perfect scenery. However, the ripples caused by the wind separated reality from the reflection.
There was another world behind the stone tablet.
Ordinary people couldn't see it, nor could they touch it. Even if they walked straight ahead, they still couldn't open the cracked door.
"Let's go in and take a look." Li Xinghua's face was bright and cheerful. She had a special longing for ancient and unknown things.
"Before I leave …"
Before Zhu Minglang could finish his sentence, Nan Lingsha had already stepped into the ancient rift.
Zhu Minglang smiled wryly. Why did Nan Lingsha always have such a disdainful attitude, as if she didn't care about the gods and demons in the world?
Nan Lingsha took the lead. Zhu Minglang and Li Xinghua followed her into the Ancient Ruins.
They couldn't estimate what the Ancient Ruins looked like.
Perhaps it was a terrifying Zombie Dragon's Demonic Lair. After all, the Zombie Dragons came from this place and quickly multiplied on this land, forming a Zombie Dragon Tribe.
"It's a little dark," said Li Xinghua softly.
She seemed to be afraid of the dark, but in order to search for ancient things, to search for ancient and future laws, she continued forward step by step.
Zhu Minglang supported her as they walked deeper into the rift.
However, this rift was even deeper than the valley's path. It was long and pitch-black. As they walked, Nan Lingsha's figure disappeared. Gradually, Nan Lingsha's footsteps also disappeared.
"Lingsha?" Li Xinghua called out.
There was no response.
She was clearly walking in front, but she suddenly disappeared!
Zhu Minglang hurriedly quickened his pace, wanting to stop Nan Lingsha, who was walking too fast. …
"Young Master, don't chase after her!" Li Xinghua hurriedly grabbed Zhu Minglang's hand.
"What's wrong?"
"It might be a spatial fork. Lingsha walked into another rift," said Li Xinghua.
"If I walk a few more steps, we will get lost too?" said Zhu Minglang.
Li Xinghua nodded.
…
It was easy to lose track of time while walking in such a dark rift. Zhu Minglang was unsure if they had been here for a few hours or a few days.
When there was finally a glimmer of light in front, Zhu Minglang heaved a sigh of relief.
"Lingsha might already be in the ruins," said Li Xinghua.
"Mmm, I didn't expect a tiny rift like this to be so mysterious," Zhu Minglang nodded.
The light grew brighter. It felt like they had passed through a narrow valley and finally saw a vast expanse of flat land.
Zhu Minglang saw a huge forest in front of him. The trees were tall and straight, their canopies blocking out the sun. Zhu Minglang and Li Xinghua felt their bodies shrinking as they walked through the forest.
It was similar to what they had seen in the valley. Everything here was huge, including the flowers, grass, birds, and insects …
