Entering the Ruins
"Let's go in." Chu Xingyun said, waking the two who were still in a daze. They looked at each other and then stepped forward, stepping onto the stairs at the entrance of the palace. Step by step, they felt small.
"The Xingchen Celestial Sect is good at spiritual arrays. You two must not be careless." Chu Xingyun suddenly warned. In the historical light and shadow, Sui Luochu used the stars as the eye of the array to condense a supreme spiritual array. Chu Xingyun was especially shocked. In his opinion, the Xingchen Celestial Sect's understanding of spiritual arrays was far better than the Ancient Star Sect.
Liu Shiyun and Su Jingan nodded at the same time. After half a day of contact, they knew Chu Xingyun's temperament. He must have his reasons for suddenly warning them.
This palace was too vast. It would not be so simple.
They came to the entrance of the palace. There was a passage here. It was full of black light, like a vortex in the void, isolating all spiritual power. There was no way to know the situation inside.
The three of them tacitly took out their Ancient Star Tokens. A faint light blossomed, and three multicolored light pillars suffused with dazzling brilliance shot straight into the sky. Finally, they transformed into a surging river of light, and all of them submerged into the passage.
In half a day, the three of them would hunt spiritual beasts together in addition to hurrying on with their journey. The speed of collecting Divine Qi also greatly increased. Now, Liu Shiyun's light pillar was four feet high, Chu Xingyun's was two feet high, and Su Jingan's was five feet high.
Originally, Chu Xingyun had ten strands of Divine Qi, but he insisted on returning five strands. Chu Xingyun did not refuse and directly put them into the Ancient Star Token.
A rumbling sound was heard. As the Divine Qi disappeared into the passage, the dark brilliance gradually dissipated. Inside, a faint stream of starlight flowed out with a faint suction force, enveloping the three of them.
Chu Xingyun looked at the two of them and said in a low voice, "Go through this passage and you will enter the palace. Be careful."
Su Jingan and Liu Shiyun nodded. The closer they got to the palace, the more careful they became.
The moment he stepped into the tunnel, Chu Xingyun felt an invisible force rush into his mind. This force was extremely terrifying, as if it wanted to tear his body apart and wipe out his consciousness. He revealed an expression of extreme pain.
Boom!
A stream of black light swept across his body. Chu Xingyun immediately felt as if a heavy hammer had smashed into his mind. His body trembled violently as he spat out a mouthful of dark red blood. His complexion turned as pale as paper.
"A spiritual array, and a killing array that attacks the soul." Chu Xingyun was secretly shocked. Any killing array that attacked the soul was no less than Rank 7. Just who was the master of this palace? Even a spiritual array that was casually arranged was so tyrannical.
As he mumbled, Chu Xingyun's thoughts stirred slightly, and he gripped the Black Hole Epee tightly in his hand. He released an invisible gravitational force, which turned into a thin thread that swept out in all directions.
"Found it!" Soon, a light flashed in Chu Xingyun's eyes. He clapped his hands, and as fast as a butterfly flying through flowers, the gravitational force enveloped the major eyes of the spiritual array. Then, with a low roar, he completely disrupted the eyes of the array and broke the rules of the spiritual array.
Another roar sounded. Chu Xingyun felt a strong light piercing towards him. His body shook as if he had been sucked into a whirlpool. The whole world was spinning, and he could not see anything at all. Even his thoughts were difficult to gather.
After a while, Chu Xingyun opened his eyes and found himself standing in a wide open space. In the void, there were countless dazzling starlights suspended. Each starlight could hurt people's eyes.
"Are you all right?" Chu Xingyun glanced to the side. Su Jingan and Liu Shiyun were standing there. Their faces were pale, and their clothes were stained with blood. However, their breaths were gradually recovering, and they were not seriously injured.
"What was that invisible force just now? It was unstoppable, and there was no trace of it." Liu Shiyun felt a lingering fear. With her current cultivation, she could not reach the soul level, but she could clearly feel the horror of that killing array.
She looked away and saw the rolling aura around the Black Hole Epee. Her eyes could not help but tremble. She said to Chu Xingyun in surprise, "That strange killing array, was it you who broke it?"
Su Jingan was shocked by these words. He immediately looked around. Sure enough, the aura of the Black Hole Epee was still lingering on those array eyes.
"The Xingchen Celestial Sect has fallen for thousands of years. The spiritual arrays that were originally arranged everywhere have gradually declined. Even so, their power is still amazing. Besides that, I don't know if there are any other traps. I will take the lead, and you two will follow behind." Chu Xingyun did not explain much. He looked up and saw that the desolate ancient aura filled the void. There was no vitality at all. It seemed that this palace had been deserted for a long time.
"Okay." Su Jingan and Liu Shiyun answered at the same time. Perhaps even they did not realize that as time went by, the two of them had gradually followed Chu Xingyun's lead and quietly listened to his arrangements.
"This palace is huge. Which direction should we go?" Su Jingan looked ahead. At the end of the open space, there were winding corridors. Further away, they could even see decaying pavilions one after another. This palace was so huge that they did not know where to go.
"Let's go straight ahead." Chu Xingyun looked around and said with certainty.
"Why?" Liu Shiyun asked curiously.
"The aura of death is the thickest in the front." Chu Xingyun frowned and said in a serious tone, "The inside of the palace is full of desolation. There is no vitality at all. The aura of death is the thickest in the front. It can be seen that there are the most casualties there, and the battles are the most intense."
Hearing that, the two of them suddenly understood. Whenever there was a fierce battle, it was usually in an important place. Chu Xingyun's analysis was reasonable.
Since they had confirmed the direction, the three of them immediately moved forward. As soon as they entered the corridor, they felt a deadly aura coming towards them. In front of them, there was a white skeleton. It had completely decayed and withered.
"The battle is so intense." Liu Shiyun continued to look ahead. There were even more corpses there, one after another. It was like a white ocean. As the three of them got closer, a gentle breeze blew past them. Immediately, those corpses turned into dust and disappeared into nothingness.
Beside the skeletons, there were countless tools scattered. But as the skeletons turned to dust, the tools also turned to dust and scattered in the air. It was as if they had never existed.
"There are Imperial weapons here." Said Chu Xingyun. Immediately, Liu Shiyun was surprised. She said in surprise, "Imperial weapons contain Divine Marks. Even if the Xingchen Celestial Sect has been destroyed for thousands of years, Imperial weapons should not have turned to dust. Are you sure?"
"Divine Marks are formed by God's Retribution. Indeed, they cannot be corroded by time. But if there is a strong force, the Divine Marks will still break. As far as I know, Martial Emperors are strong enough to destroy Imperial weapons." Chu Xingyun kept staring ahead. In the past, he was ranked second among the top ten Martial Emperors. He was one of the best Martial Emperors. He had destroyed many Imperial weapons.
