After settling the dispute over the Spiritual Treasures, Chen Siyu and Chen Ruixuan became increasingly famous throughout the Primordial World. One day, they heard that Mysterious Ruins had appeared in the far west of the Primordial World. It was said to contain endless treasures and mysterious cultivation techniques, drawing countless cultivators to explore it. The siblings' curiosity was immediately piqued, and they set off for the far west without hesitation.
Along the way, they passed through dense forests and crossed rushing rivers. After a long journey, they finally arrived at the site of the Mysterious Ruins. Before them stood an ancient, magnificent structure, shrouded in mysterious mist that obscured its full appearance. The ruins' gates were tightly shut, covered in strange runes that seemed to tell ancient tales.
Chen Ruixuan impatiently ran forward and reached out to push open the gates, only to be thrown back by an invisible force. "Ow!" Chen Ruixuan landed hard on his backside and looked at Chen Siyu with a wronged expression. Chen Siyu stepped forward and carefully examined the runes on the gates. Suddenly, she noticed one of them flash, as though it were giving some sort of hint.
An idea struck Chen Siyu. Following the order in which the runes flashed, she gently touched the runes on the gate with her little hand. As she did so, the gates slowly opened, and an ancient, stale scent rushed toward them. The siblings exchanged excited looks, then walked into the ruins hand in hand.
The interior of the ruins was dimly lit. Gems embedded in the walls gave off a faint glow, barely illuminating the road ahead. They followed a narrow passageway, its stone walls covered in all sorts of strange patterns and writing. Chen Ruixuan curiously pointed at one picture and asked, "Sister, what's this drawing? It looks like someone fighting a huge monster." Chen Siyu tilted her head and looked at it. "I'm not sure either. Maybe it's a story left behind by the owner of these ruins."
As they continued onward, they arrived in a spacious hall. At its center stood a massive stone platform, upon which rested a glittering box. Just as they were about to approach it, four stone figurines suddenly appeared at the four corners of the hall. The figurines slowly opened their eyes, cold light flashing within them, then charged at the siblings while brandishing their weapons.
Chen Siyu remained calm. She took a Five-Colored Ribbon from her waist, and it danced through the air, radiating a gentle glow. The light enveloped the stone figurines, instantly slowing their movements. Seizing the chance, Chen Ruixuan picked up a stone from the ground and hurled it at them. The stone struck a figurine with a crisp crack, and fissures spread across its body.
Under the siblings' combined assault, all four stone figurines shattered. They successfully reached the stone platform and opened the glittering box. Inside lay an ancient book and a pill emanating dense spiritual energy. Chen Siyu picked up the book and saw the words Chaos Spirit Rhinoceros Technique written across its cover. She opened it and found a miraculous cultivation technique recorded within. By cultivating it, one could resonate with the Chaos Power of heaven and earth and gain immense strength.
Chen Ruixuan picked up the pill and asked curiously, "Sister, what is this? It looks delicious." Chen Siyu smiled. "It should be a pill that can increase cultivation, but we can't eat it yet. Let's study it after we get back."
Just as they were preparing to leave the ruins, a massive vortex suddenly appeared on the wall of the hall. A sinister laugh echoed from within it. "Do you think you can leave so easily after obtaining the treasures? Leave your lives behind!" As the voice spoke, a huge black tentacle stretched out from the vortex and reached for the siblings.
