Illuminating the Transcendent Night Sky
The campfire flickered, and eerie spirits surrounded them, like an ancient tribe gathering at night, but upon closer inspection, they were all Innate God-Demon.
The Red-clothed Demon Immortal stood there, her long skirt fluttering. Some eerie spirits approached, but her body radiated the light of her primordial spirit, forming a dazzling halo that repelled the mysterious creatures.
Wang Xuan awoke with a start. They were currently in their Primordial Spirit State, and entering this place would be extremely dangerous!
What are the legends related to ghosts? Once the soul leaves the body, it may be devoured by them, like blood falling into the sea, triggering sharks that come smelling the blood!
"Old Chen, put on your helmet. Isolate yourself from the aura, or you'll become their snack!"
"Can't you speak?" Chen Yongjie asked with an unfriendly expression. He glanced at him, then looked at him again and opened his mouth as if to say something.
"What's wrong?"
"It wouldn't have been a problem, but seeing you wrapped in that pale animal skin really made me uneasy. It's like you were covered with a white sheet beforehand."
From the bonfire, a prominent figure among the spirits emerged—a tall, imposing, and domineering man. He stared at the Female Demon Immortal for a long time before reaching out to grab her.
A light drizzle fell, and Red Mist flowed, followed by endless heavenly tribulation lightning that erupted from the Female Demon Immortal's body, repelling the man who resembled the King of the Night.
The two confronted each other, and then the scriptures were turned over, and a great era was reflected in the firelight. It was a mythical golden age, where countless beings were flying, riding sword light, and riding Divine Bird and Sacred Beast.
This was a confrontation between mythological civilizations, and also a serious exchange. In the end, the man retreated, and the Red-clothed Demon Immortal walked into the hazy passage formed by the eerie fire.
"The situation is not good. We may not be able to get in. The Civilization Fire are blocking our way, and a bunch of creepy spirits are wandering around there. If only the strongest can go in, we might end up like throwing good meat buns to a dog." Chen Yongjie saw Wang Xuan's spiritual projection and saw the creepy spirits, and his brows furrowed deeply.
"Let's take a look first," Wang Xuan transmitted his voice.
The two of them are now using Peerless Exotic Treasure to isolate their auras and are hiding in the mental ruins, surrounded by broken walls and rubble.
"Another one!"
Amidst the suspended rubble, the flame flickered, and another man in black robes appeared, his head and face completely obscured, making it impossible to discern his true appearance.
He was powerful, confronting the sacred flames of the Vanished civilization in this place, where a blinding light erupted between them, accompanied by awe-inspiring Order Rune.
The power of rules is at work!
He darted across successfully, entered the passage, and headed to the higher-level Spiritual Ruins.
"This is a barrier that can't be crossed unless you're a powerful figure!" Wang Xuan pondered. If they waved the God Slaying Banner, perhaps they could break through.
However, forcibly storming in would create too much of a commotion. He and Chen Yongjie were not true peerless experts; they relied only on external resources. If they appeared in the open, they might be killed by someone looking for an opportunity.
"That grandson is up there too!" Old Chen's expression changed slightly.
In the second level of the suspended Spiritual Ruins, a man wearing Silver Mask wandered like a ghost, silently searching for something.
At this moment, the Female Demon Immortal arrived at this place. The two looked at each other, and then the man wearing the Silver Mask made a move in an instant, which was extremely powerful!
"Boom!"
He transformed into a streak of light, as if shooting from the depths of the universe, carrying an unparalleled aura, soaring through the air and crashing towards the Female Demon Immortal.
"He's so powerful? He dared to attack that Demoness first!" Wang Xuan was surprised. From the information he had gathered, the Red-Clothed Demon Lord had killed more than one peerless expert behind the behind the Great Curtain. She rose to power by stepping on the corpses of beings of the same level, and her record was illustrious. Few dared to provoke her.
Boom!
In the second layer of the Spiritual Ruins, the two made contact instantly. The light of their immortal primordial spirits collided like two great suns, so intense that the ruins trembled violently, as if they were about to collapse.
"Sure enough, this grandson is ridiculously strong. No wonder he dares to disregard Ancestor Wang and Patriarch Chen. Niu Ben is truly extraordinary!" Chen Yongjie exclaimed.
Suddenly, a man covered in golden light, as if leading a sea of golden stars, descended from the third level of the ruins and arrived at lightning speed.
He was incredibly fast, as if he had warped time, and in an instant, he struck the Female Demon Immortal in the back.
During a well-coordinated hunt, the Black Robe Man suddenly appeared in the hazy passage, sharp and domineering, like a black sun blazing down, charging towards the Red-clothed Demon Immortal.
The three supreme experts launched their attack simultaneously, targeting the Female Demon Immortal. It was as if this was a premeditated massacre that had been waiting for her for a long time!
"This girl is going to die. She was ambushed by three peerless experts. What a perfect murder!" Chen Yongjie sighed. The creatures that survived in the Great Curtain were indeed not easy to deal with. They were strong and ruthless enough. This was only the beginning, and they already wanted to ambush and kill the current number one demon-slaying expert!
An astonishing beam of light burst forth, blasting the second layer of ruins to smithereens. The sky was filled with rubble and streaks of light, and the aftershocks of the Supernatural Rule reverberated like the ebb and flow of the tide.
At first, Wang Xuan didn't react. Chen Yongjie was saying... "girl?" After a moment of surprise, he said, "If she hears this, she'll beat you to death."
Old Chen didn't care and said, "You don't understand. Girls older than you definitely don't like you calling them 'senior'."
Wang Xuan ignored her and focused on the battlefield. The three attacked too quickly, and ordinary superhumans could hardly keep up with their pace. Each of them emitted the light of their primordial spirit, as if four star fields were colliding.
In the Real World, in the vast Gobi Desert, many people looked up in surprise, sensing the lingering echoes of a mysterious rule, with faint ripples spreading outwards.
Suddenly, the entire City of Lightning trembled as the Red-clothed Demon Immortal drew upon the endless lightning that already existed in this Mental World, concentrating it all there.
Those lightning bolts all entered through the hazy passage, transforming into terrifying dragons and Undying Bird, densely packed together. In the second layer of the Spiritual Ruins, dozens or even hundreds of enormous thunderous Divine Bird and Sacred Beast erupted with a roar.
The ruins shattered, and the four masters disappeared into the lightning. Faint spiritual light shone down as they vanished.
"Is it that realistic? The primordial spirit is injured, and the falling light rain looks like spilled blood."
"It's possible that the demon girl was injured!" Wang Xuan said. His Spiritual Heavenly Eye captured the scene of the battle. The four of them rushed up the higher level of the ruins, but they did not see whose primordial spirit was "coughing up blood".
A moment later, the rubble from the second layer of ruins reappeared and materialized again, not disappearing completely.
"Someone else has gone in, and they can actually recover on their own. This place probably really has something extraordinary, and several big shots have come here," Wang Xuan pondered.
A being covered in blood-red light, exuding a fierce aura, appeared. It was humanoid, standing in the dazzling blood wheel, extremely sharp and powerful, and strode in.
"Could he... be the Nether Blood Sect Ancestor?" Chen Yongjie asked.
"Judging from the situation and the bloody light, it seems to be him. However, these old monsters are not benevolent people. They might be impersonating Mingxue."
No sooner had the two finished speaking than the humanoid being enveloped in brilliant blood light was ambushed and slammed into the back by a dark shadow.
However, the person in the Blood Wheel was on guard; it was a blood-colored illusory body, not his true primordial spirit, which suddenly reappeared in another location.
"You old scoundrel, you dare impersonate my Netherblood? You're courting death!" The black-robed man who appeared earlier was the one who launched the sneak attack.
"Hehe, you're not a member of the Netherblood Cult either, so why are you making things difficult for me?" The powerful figure amidst the blood-red light spoke, his expression calm, revealing the demeanor of the Nether Blood Sect Ancestor.
Wang Xuan and Chen Yongjie looked at each other in the mental ruins below, both speechless. What had the Nether Blood Sect Ancestor done to deserve this? Two peerless powerhouses were impersonating him.
"Old Ming is going to take the blame this time!" Wang Xuan whispered.
Black mist churned, and blood-red light soared into the sky. The two clashed several times before finally disappearing without continuing.
"I think we should just stay here and learn something, even if we get nothing. These people are all bad news!" Chen Yongjie said.
At the same time, they were very alarmed. There were more than one or two extraordinary people who had come, which was beyond their expectations. Did this place have such great fortune?
Could it be that the mythology is decaying, the supernatural is about to perish, and the restrictions or seals on this place are about to fail, thus attracting these people here?
Wang Xuan and Chen Yongjie exchanged glances, both showing surprise as they considered the possibility mentioned above. The great formation that even the most powerful experts couldn't break was now something they were still hoping for, perhaps it really involved a supreme treasure!
"This place may be a forbidden area set up by the combined power of a brilliant civilization; otherwise, it wouldn't have been able to stop those peerless experts."
This also means that the wonders of this place may truly be awe-inspiring.
"There's a battle going on the sixth floor; it's Fairy Fang!"
In the sixth level of the Spiritual Ruins, a white-clothed woman was fighting a large gray spider. It was the Mental Remnant of an ancient creature, extremely powerful, and could actually fight against a peerless expert of today.
However, it could only fight briefly before it shattered into pieces and then disintegrated with a crash.
"Six peerless masters, plus the unlucky Old Zhang who's trapped outside, that makes seven. There must There Are Supreme Treasures here!" Chen Yongjie said solemnly.
In the sky, lightning flashed and thunder roared, the clouds were thick, and lightning kept striking down, turning the ruins into City of Lightning.
In the void, there are ten more layers of ruins, one after another, all reaching the clouds, covered by a light curtain, with hazy passages connecting them.
"Everyone, we have come here again, but things are different now. The extraordinary are about to perish, and the restrictions here are decaying. If we join forces, we should be able to open them."
Dao Body arrived at the eighth level of the Spiritual Ruins, two women and four men, all standing separately, each on guard.
"Let's start it together," one person said, and everyone agreed.
In an instant, six beams of light intertwined and blasted towards a stone door floating in the void on the eighth level of the ruins. There was nothing behind it and no scenery nearby, but everyone seemed to believe that it could open up a new world.
Boom!
At the same moment, all six were attacked and sent flying. Their primordial spirit light dissipated, which was equivalent to their Primordial Spirit Blood splattering out. This scene was quite terrifying!
However, the stone gate standing in the void was indeed activated by them. Behind it, a hazy place gradually emerged, and near-real matter rushed out of the stone gate.
At the same time, the Spirit World here resounded and vibrated continuously, and was also activated.
"Something's not right!" Wang Xuan and Chen Yongjie hid in the ruins of City of Lightning, looked up, and were completely stunned.
In the clouds, endless bonfires lit up, connected by lightning. The broken drums that the desiccated spirits on the cloud remnants had been beating earlier had turned into clusters of thunder and fire!
Thunder and lightning intertwined, and enormous bolts of lightning connected the Heaven and Earth, piercing through the entire void. The City of Lightning became increasingly three-dimensional, even revealing a shape!
It was a giant human head, and the thunder and firelight seemed to be the bioelectricity of the cerebral cortex communicating, flashing, and transmitting information.
"Where are we? It seems to be on its chin!"
Meanwhile, on the eighth floor, where the six peerless experts resided, dazzling flames erupted. The massive bonfire, resembling the core area of a brain, shone brilliantly, with light raining down, as if to illuminate the eternally silent, extraordinary night sky.
