What on earth was going on?
Could Shen Lang really perform a miracle and blow up the ancient ruins in the southern seas from hundreds of miles away?
Of course not, he was not a god.
Moreover, if he was so awesome, why did he do it earlier? Why did he wait until now to make his move?
If one wanted to enter the ancient ruins from the entrance, it would be thousands of miles away.
However, if one wanted to directly enter the ancient ruins from Vajra Peak, it would only be a few dozen miles.
Don't you think that this Shen Lang outside of Vajra Peak is too Shen Lang?
Of course, his performance was flawless. It was extremely realistic, and there was no fault to be found.
Chaplin had only gotten second place in the Chaplin Imitation Competition.
Therefore, the person riding on the ultrasonic flying beast was not the real Shen Lang, but a mirror, a mirror wearing ancient armor.
This was probably the most perfect substitute in the world. Every move, every gaze, every expression was flawless.
When he was conversing with Ying Guang and Stupa Mountain's Sect Leader Ren, he was also at his best. Those two heavyweights didn't even notice, or it could be said that other than Shen Lang's women and family, no one else could tell the difference between Shen Lang and the mirror.
Moreover, the number of people who knew of the mirror's existence was very small.
So where was the real Shen Lang?
He and Chou Yao'er were dressed in ancient ruins, disguised as followers, riding snow eagles, and following behind the mirror, acting as his personal guards.
Also, the substitute mirror could not open the entrance of Vajra Peak. In fact, it was opened by Shen Lang, and the mirror was just pretending to press his palm on it.
After the entrance of Vajra Peak opened, Prince Jin walked out first.
This was because ever since Shen Lang left, the people inside had been waiting for Shen Lang to return.
Moreover, they completely believed that His Majesty Shen Lang would definitely return to save them. He would definitely do what he said he would.
However, the energy in the ancient ruins of Vajra Peak was about to be completely exhausted. At that time, it would no longer be able to exchange air with the outside. The oxygen inside would gradually be exhausted, and the light would also disappear.
Of course, even if the energy was exhausted, the air in Kingkong Peak would still be enough to last for about a day or two. This was because there was still some air left in such a huge relic.
However, it was a matter of life and death, so in order to save time, Prince Jin's 50,000 men had been waiting behind the entrance. Once the door opened, they would immediately rush out.
The time before the energy ran out was getting shorter and shorter. At that time, Prince Jin and everyone else were trying their best to cheer.
"Don't worry, everyone. His Majesty Shen Lang will definitely come back. He will always keep his promise."
"I believe His Majesty Shen Lang is outside."
Then, 15 minutes before the energy ran out, the entrance to the King Kong Peak ruins opened, and His Majesty Shen Lang's face appeared before everyone.
Prince Jin and the tens of thousands of people were very excited, shouting "Long live His Majesty".
His Majesty Shen Lang was indeed as great as he had imagined. He would never disappoint.
However, almost no one recognized that the Shen Lang in front of them was just a substitute. Even Prince Jin found it difficult to tell at first, but he soon realized it.
This was because when the crowd surged out of the ruins of Mt. King, two people went against the flow and entered the ruins instead. These two people were covered in ancient armor, but one of them made a very subtle gesture towards Prince Jin.
"Brother Jin, leave Lan Da and Wu Lie to me. You guys continue to go out." Prince Jin was stunned, but he immediately understood. He ordered Wu Lie and Lan Da to follow behind Shen Lang and Chou Yao 'er.
At that time, the Stupa Mountain Vulture Warriors were more than 10,000 meters up in the sky and hidden in the clouds. Moreover, Shen Lang had entered the ruins under the cover of the crowd. It would be strange if they could discover him.
After entering the ancient ruins of Mt. King Vajra, Shen Lang and Chou Yao 'er immediately went to a place where there was no one and changed into the armor of the Stupa Mountain Special Warriors. Then, Chou Yao' er put Shen Lang under her waist and led Wu Lie and Lan Da towards the energy whirlpool in the east.
This was because the energy of the ancient ruins of Mt. King Vajra was about to run out. There was less than 15 minutes left.
What would happen once the energy ran out?
The energy whirlpool would also close.
What would happen once the energy whirlpool closed?
The Stupa Mountain Special Warriors and the Hell Army were constantly guarding the other side of the energy whirlpool. Once the whirlpool closed, they would first be surprised and send people over to investigate. Then, a large number of Hell Army Special Warriors would rush over through the special passage of the ancient ruins and enter the ancient ruins of Mt. King Vajra.
At this time, Shen Lang could use the identity of a messenger to enter the ancient ruins of Mt. King Vajra without anyone noticing.
There was one more thing. Elder Wu of Mt. King Vajra had been captured. With the help of the Nightmare Stone and the truth serum, Shen Lang had a complete grasp of the Hell Army Special Warriors' name list, ranks, passwords, tokens, and so on.
… …
Ten, nine, eight, seven … three, two, one!
Time was up. The energy of the ancient ruins of Mt. King Vajra had been completely depleted.
There was no tremor. Everything was silent.
However, the entire ancient ruins instantly darkened. All the light had disappeared.
At the same time!
The energy whirlpool between the two ancient ruins had disappeared.
In order to form an encirclement, Ying Guang and Sect Leader Ren had mobilized most of their troops. However, there were still a few thousand Hell Army soldiers and a few hundred Special Warriors guarding the energy whirlpool.
The moment the energy whirlpool disappeared, the commander of the Hell Army was stunned. Then, he shouted, "Attack!"
Then, the thousands of Hell Army soldiers and the few hundred Special Warriors attacked wildly.
Countless ancient giant crossbows, ancient crossbows, and ancient bows shot out like a torrential rain.
Of course, all of this was meaningless. There was nothing on the other side of the energy whirlpool. It was completely dark, and one could not even see their fingers in front of them.
At this time, the Hell Army general still did not dare to act rashly. He knew that there were tens of thousands of Shen Lang's direct subordinates in the ancient ruins of Mt. King Vajra.
He immediately sent a team of Special Warriors and a team of Hell Army soldiers to explore the special tunnel of the ancient ruins. There were dozens of them in total.
In this special tunnel, not only was one unable to see their fingers in front of them, there were also several damaged and collapsed areas. There was a hidden room about ten kilometers away.
Therefore, Shen Lang and Chou Yao 'er, who were wearing the ancient equipment of Mt. King Vajra, easily snuck in and quickly rushed back. They passed through the border of the two ancient ruins and entered the ancient ruins of Mt. King Vajra.
On the other side of the energy whirlpool, General Lin Yan of Mt. King Vajra was leading over a thousand Hell Army soldiers and a few hundred Special Warriors in formation, ready to enter the ancient ruins of Mt. King Vajra at any time.
At this time, Shen Lang and Chou Yao 'er, who were dressed in Mt. King Vajra's Special Warriors, walked out and said loudly, "General Lin Yan, the ancient ruins of Mt. King Vajra's energy has been completely exhausted. Prince Jin and tens of thousands of people are over there. We caught two captives, and they were preparing to ambush us in the special tunnel. "
General Lin Yan of the Hell Army was stunned. He looked at Wu Lie and Lan Da, unable to remember their identities.
"Portraits!"
Immediately, a large stack of portraits appeared in his hands. He quickly flipped through a few pages and immediately found the portraits of the two.
This was because among the tens of thousands of people under Prince Jin, Wu Lie had once followed Shen Lang for a long time, and Lan Da had Jiang Li's special bloodline. Both of them were ranked very high.
"These two are not small figures." General Lin Yan said, "Lock them up in prison."
"Yes!" Shen Lang said.
"Wait …" General Lin Yan said, "Take off your mask."
Without saying anything, Shen Lang directly took off his mask, revealing a very special face. Many blood vessels swelled up, like earthworms crawling on his face.
This was a common characteristic of many Special Warriors. Because they had undergone many bloodline transformations, their faces were usually very frightening.
"Go, these two prisoners are more important. Lock them up in the second prison." Elder Lin Yan said.
"Yes!" Shen Lang said.
Then, he and Chou Yao 'er escorted Wu Lie and Lan Da to the second prison.
Along the way, there was a steady stream of Mt. Stupa's Special Warriors and the Hell Army surging over. Because the two elders in the ancient ruins had received reports that the energy whirlpool had mysteriously opened, because they were worried that a battle would break out, the other Mt. Stupa's troops in the ancient ruins all came to support.
… …..
Was Shen Lang familiar with the ancient ruins of Mt. Stupa?
Generally speaking, he wasn't familiar with the place, but he was very familiar with the area within a few hundred kilometers of the energy whirlpool. That was because Buddha Princess Ying Ying had brought him here before and opened up many secret warehouses, laboratories, and libraries.
And when he and Chou Yao 'er escorted the two prisoners to the second prison, they were not suspected at all.
Originally, Shen Lang had prepared a lot of passwords to deal with them, but he did not expect that no one would ask him for them at all.
Of course, Shen Lang's destination was not the second prison, but a completely inconspicuous building next to it. It was in a very remote area of the ancient ruins.
This building was about a few thousand square meters. Although it was not small, compared to other large buildings that were tens of thousands of square meters, it was not big, and it was not eye-catching at all.
Then what was it?
Energy control center!
Within a few hundred kilometers, a total of dozens of ancient energy cores were controlled here, and there were dozens of control centers like this one.
So this was the most important place.
Then was the security here tight? It was not.
This was because the door was closed and had not been opened before, and no one had been able to open it.
This kind of situation was too common. Most of the buildings in the ancient ruins were closed, and thousands of Grand Scholars had spent one or two years to calculate less than ten passwords and open less than ten ancient buildings.
And there were hundreds of secret warehouses, secret arsenals, secret libraries, and secret laboratories.
In the eyes of Mt. Stupa, these places were not as important as this energy control center. Originally, there were three Special Warriors and seven Hell Corps Warriors standing guard outside.
However, the situation now was special. After two major battles, Mt. Stupa had suffered heavy casualties, with countless deaths and injuries. Moreover, in order to surround Prince Jin's tens of thousands of people, Sect Leader Ren and Ying Guang had mobilized hundreds of thousands of soldiers.
Adding on the disappearance of the energy whirlpool, a large number of Special Warriors and Hell Corps Warriors had gone to reinforce them. And just how big was this ancient ruins? It was thousands of kilometers wide, and just this region alone was hundreds of kilometers wide. After most of the soldiers had been mobilized, it seemed very empty.
As such, there were only three Hell Corps Warriors standing guard outside the energy control center.
Along the way, Chou Yao 'er checked her surroundings to make sure that there was no one in sight.
According to the rules, the closest patrol warriors would only appear in about 39 seconds.
Shen Lang and Chou Yao 'er directly walked over. Because they were wearing the ancient armor of the Special Warriors, their ranks were much higher than the Hell Corps Warriors'.
When the three Hell Corps Warriors outside the energy control center saw them, they immediately stood up straight and saluted.
"Greetings, General."
Special Warriors were rare, so in order to sound better, the Hell Corps Warriors would usually call them General.
Shen Lang and Chou Yao 'er did not make a sound and directly arrived in front of the three.
Attack!
Chou Yao 'er struck out like lightning, instantly knocking the three Hell Corps Warriors unconscious.
Hurry, hurry, hurry!
Everything had to be done quickly!
At this time, the Stupa Mountain Warriors were already a few hundred meters away and would soon appear in their field of vision.
There were less than two seconds left.
Shen Lang quickly arrived outside the energy control center and placed the Ancient King's Ring in front of it.
Originally, the door to the control center required a complicated password. Even if dozens of Grand Scholars worked for decades, they might not be able to figure it out.
But the Ancient King's Ring's authority was too high, and Shen Lang could easily open it.
Whoosh!
Indeed, in less than a second, the door to the energy control center opened.
Shen Lang, Chou Yao 'er, Wu Lie, and Lan Da rushed into the energy control center, and Shen Lang closed the door as fast as he could.
Soon, the Stupa Mountain Warriors passed by and instinctively glanced over.
Everything was normal. The door to the energy control center was open, and the three Hell Corps Warriors were still standing there, not moving an inch.
… …
This energy control center was the same as the other control centers. No one had ever entered before, because to the Stupa Mountain, it had no development value. It was not like it was a secret armory, or else there would be no need to enter.
Of course, this was also Shen Lang's first time here. Even though he had seen the blueprints in the ancient scroll in the sarcophagus, this was Shen Lang's first time seeing such a large energy control center.
There were more than a few thousand Nightmare Stones in front of him, flashing with all kinds of lights.
Only Shen Lang, who had read the Ancient Monarch's scroll, knew what these things were. If it were anyone else, even if Stupa Mountain had been excavating this ancient ruin for more than four years, they still wouldn't be able to recognize these things.
Shen Lang took a deep breath, and once again pulled up the information related to the energy core control room from the AI.
Yes, everything matched.
Then, he quickly used the Ancient King's Ring to obtain the highest authority here.
Then, he twisted the countless Nightmare Stones and chose 20 large ancient energy cores to self-destruct today.
Of course, these ancient energy cores were not here, but in different areas within a few hundred miles. It was just that they could be controlled here.
Shen Lang took out his pocket watch and said, "Right on time."
Jin Mulan also took out her pocket watch. "3: 25 p.m."
Shen Lang said, "Yes, 3: 25 p.m."
Then, he set the time for the 20 large ancient energy cores to self-destruct at around 3: 50 p.m.
This was also the time he had agreed with the mirror.
Because everything was going smoothly, there was no rush at all. He completed everything 25 minutes earlier.
Then, time ticked by.
25 minutes passed.
In the energy core control room, countless Nightmare Stones began to flash, giving a countdown warning.
"Five, four, three, two, one!"
"Boom, boom, boom, boom …"
The 20 large ancient energy cores self-destructed one after another. According to the time set by Shen Lang, the interval between each explosion was about three seconds.
That was why there was such a magnificent scene on the surface of the sea.
The undulating explosions were like a breathtaking giant fountain.
These large ancient energy cores ranged from three to four meters in diameter to ten meters in size.
Although the power of the explosions was not as great as the Regret of the Dragon, each explosion was more than a few hundred tons or even a thousand tons of TNT.
In this explosion, the ancient ruins within a few hundred miles collapsed and were smashed into pieces.
Of course, Shen Lang had already calculated the explosion radius, so there was absolutely no problem for him in this energy core control room.
… …
The scene returned to the surface!
In the realistic and exaggerated performance of the substitute mirror, the entire destructive explosion lasted for a whole minute.
Then, it stopped temporarily.
But the tsunami was already surging over.
The tremors on the ground only stopped after half a minute.
The mirror opened its eyes and said with a smile, "Prince Ying, Sect Leader Ren, how was the show of destruction?"
Sect Leader Ren's face twitched. He looked at the surging tsunami and felt his heart wrench.
Just that explosion alone had destroyed a few hundred miles of ancient ruins. How many secret warehouses, libraries, and laboratories were destroyed?
And the hundreds of thousands of people present were also staring blankly at this scene.
How, how was this possible?
Was Shen Lang a god? How could he destroy the ancient ruins of our Stupa Mountain from so far away?
The mirror said, "Sect Head Ren, I just destroyed a few hundred miles of your ancient ruins, which took up about one-fifth of your undeveloped area. Not only are you feeling heartache, but I also can't bear to do so. These are the treasures of the ancient civilization, and if they were to be completely destroyed, I would be a sinner. Please believe me, I feel as bad as you. But in order to save Prince Jin's people, I had no choice. "
Sect Leader Ren said nothing.
Ying Guang said nothing.
The mirror said, "Sect Leader Ren, I am going to start the countdown again. You need to immediately release the encirclement and let Prince Jin's people return to Raging Tide City. Otherwise, the second round of destruction will begin."
Sect Leader Ren still didn't reply.
The mirror said, "Sect Leader Ren, it seems that my performance was not magnificent enough!"
"Then let us continue."
"Five, four, three, two, one."
"Begin!"
The mirror snapped its fingers again.
It was 3: 55 PM in the afternoon.
Boom, boom, boom, boom …
The huge explosion on the surface of the sea started again.
The magnificent drama of destruction was once again staged.
The ancient ruins of Stupa Mountain were once again destroyed in large swathes.
"Stop, stop, stop!" Stupa Mountain's Sect Leader Ren suddenly roared.
The mirror, who was intoxicated with the "Symphony of Fate", immediately stopped waving its hands.
Then, the huge explosion on the surface of the sea also stopped.
It really looked as if he was commanding and controlling everything.
But in fact, he was performing along with the explosion, staring at the time on his watch and performing without missing a single second.
The mirror said, "Sect Leader Ren, do you believe me now? Then are you willing to hurt your pride a little and release the encirclement? Are you willing to let my people go? "
Stupa Mountain's Sect Leader Ren closed his eyes for a long time. When he opened them again, he had calmed down a little, but he was like a volcano that was about to erupt.
"All Stupa Mountain warriors, put down your weapons, release the encirclement, and let Prince Jin's people go!"
