The Ruins Open
"Hey, Xiao Yan, what are you thinking about?" Tang Huo'er, who was standing next to Tang Zhen, asked curiously when she saw Xiao Yan standing still with his expression constantly changing.
"I wasn't looking for anything special, it's just that it truly lives up to its reputation as Heaven Rank Dou Skill; even Dou Zun would go crazy for it." Xiao Yan shook his head slightly and smiled.
Seeing Xiao Yan's expression, Nalan Yanran roughly understood what he was really thinking.
"Master, it seems Xiao Yan's situation isn't very good. He's surrounded by enemies, and there are even several old Six-Star Dou Zun hiding among them." Xiao Huiying looked at the formidable lineup below.
"With Burning Flame Valley protecting Xiao Yanzi, it's all just talk; there won't be any real fighting. The Ancient Ruins are about to open, and nobody wants to waste their Dou Qi. After all, the Ancient Ruins are fraught with danger. If they waste even a fraction of their Dou Qi or get injured, they might miss out on the opportunity."
"Moreover, people from powerful factions all know that this kid possesses the soul of the Yao Lao, making him difficult to deal with."
Xiao Tian wasn't worried about Xiao Yan. This kid could suddenly unleash his full power at any moment. Now, with the addition of four kinds of Heavenly Flames, if he really wanted to Destruction Fire Lotus, not everyone here would necessarily survive.
"That's right. In Master's words, Xiao Yan is a true sixth brother." Xiao Huiying recalled Xiao Tian's comments on everyone's personality. When he commented on Xiao Yan, one of the points was that he was a sixth brother with an endless stream of trump cards.
"Then let them fight. Anyway, we don't need Heaven Rank Dou Skill. We just need to get the Origin Fruit for Zi Yan." Xiao Huiying held Xiao Tian's hand and looked at the people below. With the opening of this ruin, at least two-thirds, or even more, of the people on the ground would probably be buried inside forever.
"Bang!"
Suddenly, ripples began to appear in the many Spatial Fold in the void.
Then, under the watchful eyes of countless people, that void began to twist and distort.
"Bang!"
The distorted space suddenly froze, and then with a crisp bang, the distorted space, like fragile glass, shattered into countless tiny fragments.
"The ruins are open! First come, first served! Charge!"
The instant the Space Seal shattered, countless figures around the Bone Sea turned bloodshot, their throats emitting low, greedy roars. Their figures surged toward the center of the Bone Sea like locusts in flight.
However, those who rushed forward were mostly weak individuals, while the powerful and strong individuals realized that something was wrong with the opened space and retreated a considerable distance in unison.
The Space Seal fragments that had just burst open suddenly paused, and then a loud bang was heard. A violent Space Power, which would make even Dou Zun Expert's heart tremble, swept outwards like a storm.
Those who rushed forward the fastest were the first to be swallowed by the storm, almost in the blink of an eye. Then, shrill screams echoed one after another above the Bone Sea.
Some of the stronger individuals at the back finally realized that something was wrong. As a result, the crowd that had been charging forward suddenly turned around and fled in disarray, creating an unusually chaotic scene outside the Bone Sea.
Xiao Tian, above the clouds, practically watched this scene unfold. The skeletal peaks near the space were directly flattened by this Space Power. In an instant, blood mist and dust formed from white bones flew together between heaven and earth, blotting out the sun.
Under Xiao Tian's gaze, a colossal palace, nearly a thousand feet in size and almost like a small mountain, slowly emerged from the void and finally landed gently on the surrounding skeletons, as if standing between heaven and earth.
"Is this the Dou Sheng Ruins? The Space Power is incredibly dense." Xiao Huiying narrowed her eyes slightly as she looked at the giant palace that emerged from the space not far away.
It must be admitted that although there is only one word difference between Half-Saint and Dou Sheng, their strength is indeed worlds apart. Just their mastery of Space Power alone is enough to demonstrate the gap between the two realms.
"You'll reach the Dou Sheng soon." Xiao Tian patted Xiao Huiying's head. Inside the Ancient Ruins, there was an Ancient Forest formed from medicinal herbs. Perhaps they could gather all the herbs they needed there.
At that time Medusa and Xiao Huiying will be able to quickly break through to the Dou Sheng, thus giving the Free and Unfettered Hall top-tier Combat Power. Coupled with their magical beast identities and the Nine Heavens Star Array, even if the Soul Hall's Vice Hall Master comes, they can be killed directly.
"Mmm~" Xiao Huiying nodded obediently upon hearing Xiao Tian's words.
About ten minutes later.
The main hall began to tremble slightly, and the tightly closed stone doors also made a rumbling sound as they slowly rose, gradually revealing the dark and gloomy passage inside.
Even with the strength of Dou Zun, the entire passage seemed endless, resembling a gigantic, man-eating beast's maw that had been waiting for millions of years—a truly bizarre sight.
"The gates have opened! Treasure, my little brother, I've arrived! You are all mine!"
Upon seeing the gate open, a powerful expert at the Wind Attribute Dou Zong level finally couldn't hold back any longer. His eyes turned bloodshot, and he unleashed his proud speed, rushing towards the passage. Then, amidst a burst of laughter, he blasted himself into the dark passage.
Seeing someone take the lead, the dense crowd immediately stirred. One by one, they used their Dou Qi Wings or Treading on Air, rushing towards the passage as if their lives depended on it, as if they were afraid that someone would get there first.
Those powerful figures, however, remained completely unmoved. How could they so easily break into the ruins left behind by Dou Sheng? That would be incredibly undignified.
Powerful and ruthless forces like the Heavenly Underworld Sect and the Nine Nether Earth Python Clan even originally planned to capture a group of people to scout ahead before anyone else went in.
Shortly after these people rushed into the passage, the pitch-black passage suddenly turned crimson red, the hard floor slowly cracked open, and then everyone saw that scalding red magma was gushing out from it.
At the same time, beams of dazzling blue fire suddenly shot out from the walls of the spacious passage.
Many people were caught off guard by the sudden pillar of fire, and were instantly engulfed by the high temperature inside the flames, turning into ashes and falling into the lava.
Seeing this scene, those who were about to rush in quickly stopped and tried to retreat, but in the current situation, how could they retreat as they wished? The entire area in front of the hall was densely packed with people, and the entire hall was almost completely blocked by the crowd.
The people in front wanted to back up, while the people behind desperately tried to squeeze in, which resulted in the people in front being bumped into by the figures rushing in from behind.
