Today is actually October 1st.
This is a great day for the Huaxia people; many have already been busy traveling and planning their trips.
However, a massive typhoon utterly destroyed everything.
I thought I had no hope of going out and would have to stay at home, but I didn't expect the typhoon to be gone when I woke up!
In the early hours of the morning, after confirming that the typhoon had moved away, the blockade of transportation was lifted.
Then, someone created a GIF that quietly went viral across the internet.
In the picture, a huge whirlwind rushes towards Huaxia. Just as it is about to arrive, two hands appear on the map and slam the whirlwind down, leaving it dizzy and disoriented. Then, a line of text appears.
"It's my birthday today, get lost!"
"Alright, bro!"
After being beaten senseless, Feng Xuan replied with a single sentence, then made a 90-degree turn and ran away.
"Godf*** yourself, it's my birthday today! Get lost! That's hilarious! Does it have to be so vivid and descriptive?"
"Let me tell you, the part where we got hit was the real highlight! You have no idea, this whirlwind dropped two levels after it got close to us. I even suspect that if it had stayed any longer, it would have dropped even more levels!"
"Yes, yes, a friend of mine works at the meteorological bureau. When they first discovered this situation, everyone was stunned. When my friend told me about it, I laughed so hard I almost fell over!"
"Anyway, thank you for the birthday of our motherland! I can finally go out and have fun as planned today!"
This animated GIF has taken over Weibo, Douyin, and other major social media platforms, even WeChat Moments, and the comments about it have become the most popular.
By noon, the sun was shining brightly in the sky, which was a pristine, deep blue.
Some people wake up in the middle of the day and are stunned when they look at their phones.
"Can anyone tell me what happened? How come I woke up to find all these tourist attractions packed with people? Wasn't today supposed to be a typhoon day? Where's the typhoon?"
"What on earth happened? Why do I feel like I'm out of touch with the world?"
Many people love to sleep in, especially on their days off.
However, after they got up, they were all completely bewildered, and after a long time, they still didn't know what had happened.
I just see my WeChat Moments feed constantly filled with pictures of tourist attractions and the like.
After they finally figured out what had happened, a new wave of posts started dominating their WeChat Moments.
The images related to this GIF have been refreshed again.
Meanwhile, Su Mu was eating his meal while looking at the animated GIFs on his phone, his brows furrowed.
This picture seems to have some hidden meaning.
Recalling the sounds he heard yesterday, Su Mu was then taken aback. Could it be that the Dragon Vein had made its move?
If that's the case, then there is indeed a slight possibility.
Su Mu thought about it for a moment, then shook his head and didn't pay any more attention to it.
After finishing his meal, he arrived in the Immortal Cultivation Realm. Gu Yu and the Princess were going to take him to the High Antiquity ruins.
Although the time hadn't come yet, Su Mu planned to learn more about this High Antiquity ruin.
Gu Yu was extremely attentive; he answered Su Mu's questions wholeheartedly.
There have been more and more cultivators in the capital these past few days, probably all heading towards the High Antiquity ruins.
The entrance to the High Antiquity ruins is located a hundred miles outside the capital.
What seemed like a hundred li to Su Mu was actually very far, but to cultivators it was very close. So many cultivators came to the capital to stay, as well as to buy Law Treasure, pills, and so on.
Since we're going in to search for treasure, we need to be well-prepared.
One careless mistake could easily lead to ruin, so it's something we absolutely must be careful about.
As a result, the capital city has been exceptionally lively these past few days, with various small trade fairs and auctions springing up one after another.
The number of private exchange meetings held by cultivators is countless.
Su Mu had heard about these things before, but unfortunately he wasn't part of this group and couldn't integrate.
"So High Antiquity ruins contain Law Treasure, but also the same kind of junk?"
Su Mu sat to the side, listening attentively as Gu Yu described the things inside the High Antiquity ruins.
Gu Yu nodded seriously upon hearing this, "There were countless brilliant cultivators in High Antiquity times, and some of the Cultivation Method they created would still be considered top-tier even today. However, some Cultivation Method, after continuous improvements, have become second-rate."
"There are also some elixirs. Some of these elixirs are very potent and well-preserved, so they can still be used once found. However, some have lost their potency due to the passage of time, or they have become highly toxic due to sedimentation."
"Can pills turn into deadly poison if left out for too long?"
Su Mu's eyes widened; this was the first time he had ever heard of this concept.
Gu Yu wasn't surprised that Su Mu didn't know this, and nodded slightly, saying, "Of course. The elixir itself is made by combining the essence of many medicinal herbs. The components of these herbs are different, and they will slowly change over time. Even a slight change will make it different from the original medicinal properties and conflict with the components of other herbs."
"Simply put, the five elements were originally in balance, with metal, wood, water, fire, and earth mutually generating and restraining each other. But over time, the fire went out, and the balance of the five elements was disrupted, making it possible for a spiritual explosion to occur at any time."
Gu Yu's explanation was quite simple and easy to understand, Su Mu grasped it instantly.
"Then how did these High Antiquity ruins come about?"
Su Mu then became concerned about another question: how did these ruins come to be?
Upon hearing this, Gu Yu began to ponder; the question seemed to have stumped her.
"Currently, there is no explanation for the origin of the High Antiquity ruins. One explanation that is widely accepted by cultivators is that High Antiquity cultivators participated in a great war, a war that was extremely fierce. As a result, a small number of cultivators perished shortly after returning to their cave abode, while the majority of cultivators wrote their epitaphs in front of their cave abode and never returned."
Su Mu was stunned when he heard this.
At this moment, a scene appeared in his mind: many cultivators gracefully walked out of their cave abode, erected tombstones in front of their cave abode, then smiled at each other and all turned into streaks of light and disappeared.
What if we go and never return?
"Then I'll never return!"
"Perhaps even High Antiquity cultivators had such a heroic scene," Su Mu murmured to himself.
"Don't worry, once inside, the princess and I will be there to protect you. You don't need to worry too much."
Seeing Su Mu deep in thought, Gu Yu assumed Su Mu was worried and immediately spoke up to comfort her.
Su Mu listened without offering an explanation, and simply thanked him.
