Eh?!
After hearing Bao Shaolong's reminder, everyone's heart suddenly stopped!
Although the mysterious pressure in the void was strong, everyone was still able to resist it. Were all these powerful cultivators really trapped to death?
Judging from the skeletons, many of the corpses had actually died not long ago, which was within the last few months!
Even if a Spirit River Realm cultivator was trapped in this ruin, it would take at least a year and a half before they died.
At this moment, an intense uneasy aura pervaded the void, causing all the cultivators' expressions to change. Even Zhu Han, who had always been calm, couldn't help but have a drastic change in expression when she heard this. She looked around vigilantly.
This place was definitely a life and death trap!
However, the most terrifying thing was that everyone still didn't know where the danger of this trap was!
Perhaps in the next moment, that unknown terror would attack and drag everyone into hell!
"Junior … Junior Brother Chu, did you see anything?"
Lu Yan's lips quivered for a moment before she mustered up her courage and finally couldn't help but ask softly.
Until now, only Chu Chen still had a calm expression in the entire group. Everyone else had been engulfed by this unknown terror.
Thus, in the young girl's heart, she could only see Chu Chen as her only hope.
"You can take a look at the wounds of these people."
Chu Chen didn't explain directly. Instead, he used the tip of his foot to pick up a skeleton and showed it to everyone.
"The left ribs of this skeleton were all bitten off. It was obviously killed by that old iron dog. As for the skinny skeleton that was three kilometers away, its entire crotch was shattered. It seemed to have been smashed by that Shark-Crocodile's tail. There's another skeleton that was three kilometers away. That one … "
Chu Chen's words made everyone shudder, and they began to recall those strangely shaped skeletons.
Chu Chen continued with a solemn expression, "All the cultivators here were killed by those imprisoned monsters. Thus, we were wrong from the beginning. Those monsters weren't imprisoned forever. They could leave their respective forbidden areas under certain conditions."
"Oh, if that's the case, then under what conditions could those monsters leave the forbidden areas?"
Zhu Han's gaze flickered as she asked in a deep voice.
Most of the time, the unknown was always the most terrifying thing. Since they knew what had killed these powerful cultivators, everyone knew that the truth was even more terrifying than the unknown.
"I'm not sure either, but based on the distribution of these ruins, there must be some kind of treasure in the depths of these ruins. Once it's touched, the imprisoned monsters will be able to break free."
Chu Chen narrowed his eyes and slowly expressed his opinion.
"Doesn't this mean that we can't advance any further?"
Bao Shaolong, who had always been arrogant, had red eyes and an ugly expression on his face.
"It's very possible that this ruin is indeed an extremely terrifying death trap."
Chu Chen nodded. Even his gaze became misty.
At this moment, the atmosphere of the entire team became incomparably solemn.
The truth was too cruel!
These monsters were almost all heaven-defying existences. At the very least, they could effortlessly kill cultivators at the Spirit River Tier.
Under such circumstances, the danger level of the ancient ruins had exceeded everyone's bottom line.
"From the looks of it, we have greatly underestimated the danger level of these ancient ruins. Once these monsters' restrictions are removed, we won't have any hope of surviving. "
Lu Yan's gentle face became deathly pale, and her charming face was covered in frost.
"This place is truly too dangerous. With our current strength, it's impossible for us to enter and explore. After all, no one knows what kind of treasure would be used to remove the monsters' restrictions. Who knows if someone would touch a stone inside and trigger the mechanism. In my opinion, we can't continue to explore these ancient ruins. We can't joke around with our lives. "
Zhu Han shook her head and made a decision.
"I suggest that everyone go. Exploring the ruins isn't the same as throwing away our lives. We don't need to put ourselves in a situation of certain death for unknown rewards."
"Senior Martial Brother Zhu is right. Exploring the ruins has to be within our capabilities. No matter how good the treasures inside are, we need to be alive to enjoy them. Now that we're going in, we don't even know if we can obtain any treasures. Putting ourselves in a desperate situation is undoubtedly the most unwise choice. "
The oldest black-clothed cultivator in the team pondered for a moment and nodded heavily.
"That's right. Exploring the ruins is exploring the ruins. With our current strength, it's equivalent to courting death. There's no need to do so."
"Let's change to another ancient ruin after we leave. The danger level of this ruin is equivalent to a life forbidden zone. It's not something that a small team like us can challenge."
"Everyone, follow Senior Martial Brother Zhu and leave!"
It was obvious that the tyrannical monsters in the palace ruins were completely out of everyone's imagination and had crushed everyone's confidence.
Therefore, at this moment, all the cultivators thought of Shen Li at the same time. They gave up on exploring the ancient ruins and left immediately.
After all, no matter how many treasures there were in the ruins, so what if they didn't have the life to enjoy them?
"Junior Martial Brother Chu, what do you think? Should we leave immediately?"
Seeing how the majority of the cultivators were anxious to return and wanted to escape immediately, Lu Yan turned to look at Lu Yan.
Lu Yan turned to look at Chu Chen.
Chu Chen was terrifyingly quiet. He took a light breath and gave his suggestion after a long time.
"Everyone is right. With our current strength, once these monsters are released, we won't have any chance of surviving. There are plenty of ruins that we can use to explore. There's no need to throw our lives away here. Leave immediately! "
As the core members of the team, Zhu Han and Chu Chen had clearly stated that the danger level of this ancient ruin was no longer suitable for the cultivators to continue exploring. Therefore, everyone's opinion was unified.
That was to retreat!
After all, they had walked for so long. Other than the dark region where the Yin Blood Devil Figurine was at, they could still go around the other death zones.
After making the decision, the cultivators started to return using the path they came from. Chu Chen intentionally walked at the back of the team.
To be honest, even though he said that they couldn't explore the ruins, he couldn't give up on the Heavenly Devil Spring in the depths of the ruins. Therefore, he planned to sneak in after the others had left. He might have to properly explore this life forbidden zone.
If he moved alone, he wouldn't have so many misgivings.
The speed at which they left was much faster than when they entered. After all, the cultivators were already familiar with the route and didn't have to be as careful as when they first entered.
The group of people flickered with spiritual light and shuttled back and forth in the ruins' stone formation like lightning.
