The Final Guardian of the Chaos Ancient Ruins

Kui Ox glanced at Taiyi, pretending not to recognize him, and spoke up as well:

"Although the origin of the Chaos Immortal Palace is extremely mysterious, I presume that your Gods' Country must have had some contact with it."

Thunder Flame God King nodded solemnly. "Indeed, I know a little about it."

"However, the Kongling Divine Lord is an extremely mysterious being in the Celestial Palace, and his magical power is unfathomable."

"The Celestial Palace is a place where dragons and tigers hide, and its powerful forces are by no means much less than those of our Gods' Country."

Upon hearing this, Taiyi feigned surprise and looked at Lei Yan, "His strength is not weaker than your Gods' Country. Just how many powerful beings are there in this Hundun?"

"Haha, Taiyi, you come from another world, so you naturally don't know how many powerful beings there are in the Hundun."

"Leaving aside my Gods' Country and the Chaos Immortal Palace, there are quite a few old monsters who live in seclusion."

Taiyi nodded slightly after hearing this, "It seems that in order to walk in the Hundun, one needs to join a force."

Upon hearing this Thunder Flame God King laughed heartily, "So Fellow Taiyi has come to a decision? If you are interested, I, Thunder Flame God King, will recommend you to the Chamber of Commerce."

"I guarantee that the status of the Taiyi God-King will not be lower than mine. What do you think, Fellow Taiyi?"

Taiyi moment, "I appreciate Brother Taiyi Yan's kindness, but Taiyi am used to being unrestrained and it is really hard for me to get used to it for a while. Please allow me to think about it Taiyi."

"Hahaha..."

"No rush, no rush. Taiyi, just let me know when you've made up your mind."

At this point, Taiyi quickly bowed to Kui Ox.

"We were so busy talking that we didn't have a chance to thank you for saving us. Please don't mind."

Kui Ox glanced at the two of them indifferently, "It's nothing, just a small favor, nothing to mention."

Thunder Flame God King took out a storage ring, "Many thanks to True Lord Kui Ox for your help. Please accept this small token of my appreciation, senior."

Looking around, Kui Ox could vaguely see a thousand Chaos Crystal Stone within the ring.

"I thought to myself, this Starlight Merchant Guild is indeed very wealthy and generous."

But the Kui Ox was not tempted.

"Haha, Thunder Flame God King, you're too kind. It was nothing, no need to mention it."

Thunder Flame God King's expression froze. "Senior, what is this...?"

Kui Ox waved his hand, "There's no need for that. I was just passing by when I was looking for my people."

"Since you two are in danger, I cannot stand idly by."

"I absolutely cannot accept your possessions."

Thunder Flame God King clasped his hands in a fist salute, "In that case, this junior will not stand on ceremony any longer. If senior needs anything, Lei Yan will be at your service at any time."

"Haha, very well, since you two are both straightforward people, then I will not stand on ceremony any longer!"

The three exchanged Jade Talisman, and the Kui Ox then headed off into the distance.

Watching the Kui Ox disappear into the distance, Taiyi and Thunder Flame God King decided to continue their journey.

"Brother Lei Yan, your Starlight Merchant Guild has a great influence in the Hundun. Even that True Lord Realm expert just now knows about you."

Thunder Flame God King smiled and said, "Taiyi, although the forces in the Hundun are complex and intertwined, our Starlight Merchant Guild can be ranked among the top three in terms of power in the Gods' Country."

Upon hearing this, Taiyi's eyes widened. "Ranking in the top three? That would be better than many smaller alliances."

Thunder Flame God King laughed heartily, "That's for sure. You will know the power of my Starlight Merchant Guild in the future."

As they talked, the two continued their journey toward the Chaos Ancient Ruins.

After leaving the Chaos Ancient Ruins, Kui Ox returned directly to the Primordial Origin World.

When they made contact with Taiyi had already passed on the information he had obtained to Kui Ox.

Taichu listened to Kui Ox's account, he exchanged a glance with the Fifth Elder.

"Fifth Elder, it seems that the Chaos Ancient Ruins do indeed hold a great secret."

After listening, the Fifth Elder pondered for a moment, then slowly spoke:

"Sect Leader, you are right. My idea is to wait until the Third Elder comes out of seclusion, and then the Sect Leader and Young Master will go to the Chaos Ancient Ruins together."

"Since the Chaos Ancient Ruins have such a powerful foundation, the Sect Leader and the Young Master must compete for it."

"This explains why the Gods' Country sends its core disciples every year to seek opportunities."

Taichu nodded and said, "That's right. No wonder the Chaos Ancient Ruins have been coveted by so many forces; it turns out they have such heaven-defying potential."

"In that case, we must go and fight for this heaven-defying opportunity."

While Taichu and the Fifth Elder were discussing things, Taiyi and Thunder Flame God King had already arrived at the depths of the Chaos Ancient Ruins.

The place was filled with a dense aura of Hundun, and ancient restrictions were faintly shimmering.

Suddenly, a melodious flute tune drifted over, the sound seemingly coming from ancient times.

Taiyi became alert, Thunder Flame God King also gripped his weapon tightly.

A woman dressed in white slowly walked over, surrounded by strange runes.

"You shouldn't have come here," the woman said coldly.

"Why do you say that, fairy? This place may be dangerous, but it also holds great opportunities," Thunder Flame God King replied.

The woman sneered, "Fairy? Ignorant junior, you don't even know my name, yet you dare to presume to call yourself a fairy?"

Taiyi was secretly alarmed; this woman's tone was extremely arrogant, indicating she was no ordinary person.

He respectfully asked, "Please tell me your name, senior."

The woman ignored Taiyi and instead gently raised her flute, pointing it at the two of them.

"I am the Ancient Ruins Guardian. Your trespassing in this forbidden area is a capital offense."

Thunder Flame God King roared, "When did this Chaos Ancient Ruins become your personal domain?"

Seeing Lei Yan's fury, a cold glint flashed in the woman's eyes.

"This is an ancient and forbidden place, a place that nurtures endless treasures. If it is plundered by greedy people like you, what use will this immortal be to you?"

Taiyi's mind raced, and he cupped his hands and said, "Senior, we have no intention of disrupting the balance of this place. We have only come to explore the opportunities of creation and improve ourselves."

"We were unaware that this place was forbidden. Please forgive us, senior. We will now leave."

Upon hearing this, the woman paused slightly, as if considering whether it was true or not.

Just then, the surrounding Hundun energy churned violently, as if something enormous was awakening.

The woman's expression suddenly changed. "Hmph, I'll trust you this time, but don't even think about trying to get your hands on the core area, or don't blame me for being ruthless."

After saying that, he vanished in a flash.

Taiyi and Thunder Flame God King exchanged a glance and both breathed a sigh of relief.

"This guardian's strength is unfathomable; we'd better be careful," Taiyi said softly.

Thunder Flame God King nodded, "Hmm, even I have never heard of anyone who dares to call themselves an Immortal Venerable."

Taiyi shook his head. "If even you, fellow Daoist, don't know, then I Taiyi, am even less aware."

"However, Brother Lei Yan, you dare to call yourself an ancestor in the Hundun, so your strength is probably not weaker than that of the Great Dao Realm."

Lei Yan shook his head and laughed, "Taiyi, you are merely at the Great Dao Realm, how dare you call yourself an ancestor? If I am not mistaken, you are at least at the Supreme Realm."

"I have opened up historical sites several times before, and I have never seen anything like this. I need to pass this message on to the senior management of the Chamber of Commerce."

Taiyi eyebrow slightly. "Oh, are you looking for members of the merchant guild, fellow Daoist?"

Lei Yan shook his head after hearing this. "This matter is of great importance, and I need to go back in person."

Taiyi hesitated for a moment before saying, "In that case, Brother Dao, Taiyi go back and report this matter. I will wait for you at the edge."

Thunder Flame God King glanced at Taiyi, "My Young Master has already reached the Eighteen Revolutions of the Great Dao Realm, and will soon break through to the half-step Supreme Realm."

"If we come here now and something goes wrong, we cannot bear the consequences. In that case, I will not accompany you. Fellow Taiyi, please be careful."

After speaking, he transformed into a streak of Liu Guang and disappeared into the horizon.

Taiyi turned and flew towards the edge of the ancient ruins, proceeding cautiously along the way, and after many detours, he finally returned to the Primordial Origin World.

Within the Chaos Pearl.

The Third Elder and the Six-Eared Macaque have been in seclusion for countless years, and now they have finally emerged.

"Hahahaha, this old man greets the Sect Leader!"

Taichu quickly stepped forward, cupped his hands, and said, "Congratulations on your completion of seclusion Third Elder."

Looking at him now, the Third Elder was dressed in white, with white hair and a youthful face, looking like an ordinary old man without any magical powers.

There was no magical energy fluctuation around him.

The Fifth Elder was also a Supreme Realm expert, but he couldn't see the Third Elder's cultivation level.

He looked at the Third Elder with curiosity, "Third Brother, why has this seclusion lasted so long?"

The Third Elder smiled slightly and said, "Fifth Brother, it took me a while to break through, but the gains have been considerable. I have vaguely touched the threshold of the Quasi-Emperor Realm."

"What--!"

Everyone was shocked to hear this!

The Fifth Elder was even more astonished, "Big Brother's cultivation is actually close to the Old Ancestor's level?"

The Third Elder glared at the Fifth Elder with displeasure, "How can you compare to the Old Ancestor? You're still far behind."

The Fifth Elder shrugged, then looked at Six-Eared Macaque and quickly bowed.

"Congratulations on your great progress in cultivation, Young Master. I never expected your Young Master to advance so quickly."

Everyone was amazed by the Third Elder, but they overlooked Six-Eared Macaque.

Looking at Six-Eared Macaque now, one can see that Six-Eared Macaque is surrounded by magical power, and his body is filled with a strong Law of War.

Six-Eared Macaque has already reached the Great Dao Realm.

"My disciple has actually reached the Great Dao Realm?" Taichu was both surprised and delighted.

"Reporting to Master, since I broke through to the Half-Step Great Dao Realm, cultivation has become increasingly easier."

"I suppose I will only be able to fully inherit the power of the Old Ancestor's legacy when I reach the Great Dao Realm."

"Okay, okay..."

Everyone cheered with joy as they saw that Six-Eared Macaque had broken through to the Great Dao Realm.

After offering their congratulations, Taichu informed the Third Elder about the Chaos Ancient Ruins.

The Third Elder stroked his beard, his gaze deep. "This matter is indeed of utmost importance. It seems we must go there as soon as possible."

At this moment, Taiyi also arrived and recounted his experiences in the ancient ruins in detail.

After discussing it, Taichu and the others decided to set off immediately.

Inside the Chaos Ancient Ruins, the woman in white stood before a mysterious array, chanting incantations.

As she uttered her incantations, the energy fluctuations deep within the ancient ruins grew increasingly intense.
