Ancient Cavern
"Chen Sheng and Wang Yuanxing were really killed by Zhuowen alone?
Wang Yuanxing's cultivation is at the Initial Human King Realm. How could someone like him be killed? "
Gu Yue Tian picked his ears again. His eyes suddenly bulged as he looked at Gu Lie and asked.
Gu Lie laughed bitterly. He had no choice but to bite the bullet and say, "This is absolutely true. Even Liu Chengshang, who was at the Profound Human King Realm, was killed by Zhuowen when he was fighting against the Zhuo Family, let alone Wang Yuanxing, who was at the Initial Human King Realm.
Zhuowen seems to have had some fortuitous encounters. His cultivation base is not high, but his methods are extremely strange. "
Lingju and the other two had also heard it clearly. They were not unfamiliar with the Zhuowen that Gu Lie had mentioned. Wasn't he the disciple with high grade Mental Energy talent that Cang Mu had mentioned earlier?
From what Cang Mu had said, his disciple, Zhuowen, was only fifteen or sixteen years old. Could it be that a young man like him was strong enough to defeat a Great Perfection Human King?
Only those in the Perfection of the Human King Realm or even the Earth King Realm could kill a Great Accomplishment of the Human King Realm. Could it be that there was such a young Earth King Realm expert in Rattan Armor City?
They had never heard of such a young Earth King Realm martial artist. No matter how heaven-defying a genius was, it was impossible to reach the Earth King Realm at the age of fifteen or sixteen!
Hearing such strange news, the three of them were stunned. Perhaps even the most talented genius in the House of Marquis Qin wouldn't be able to reach the Earth King Stage at such a young age!
However, Gu Lie's next sentence immediately caused the place to become silent once again.
"Moreover, Zhuowen's Mental Energy seems to have reached Grade Two. Back then, when he fought with Chen Sheng, he revealed his powerful Mental Energy. Even Chen Sheng could not deal with that kind of Mental Energy. Clearly, he has reached Grade Two!"
"A sixteen-year-old Grade Two Arcana Master?" The Ninth Commandery Princess covered her mouth and muttered to herself in disbelief.
Immediately, the three of them turned their heads tacitly and looked at Master Cang Mu, who was also in a daze.
Feeling Lingju, the Ninth Commandery Princess and Xu Chang's gaze, Master Cang Mu smiled bitterly and spread his hands to show that he was not clear.
However, his heart was violently shaken by Gu Lie's news. He remembered that Zhuo Wen had only tempered his Mental Energy for less than a year. In such a short period of time, his Mental Energy had already reached grade two. Wasn't this speed and talent a little terrifying?
After Master Cang Mu, the Nine Nine Commandery Princess, the Ninth Commandery Princess Nine Nine Commandery Nine Commandery Young Young Nine Commandery's Eyes.
The Ninth Commandery Princess's beautiful eyes were full of curiosity. She was more and more interested in the young man whom she had never met before.
In the God Stone Square, the Zhuo Family's people were mixed in with the huge crowd. Looking at the arrogant Ninth Commandery Princess and the respectful Gu Yue Tian in the square, Zhuowen realized that the three people who had suddenly appeared were probably the people from the House of Marquis Qin that Zhuo Xiangding had mentioned.
However, he was puzzled. What was so special about this small Rattan Armor City that attracted the three of them to come here?
…
In the main hall of the Governor's Mansion, Lingju, the Ninth Commandery Princess, and Xu Chang were treated as VIPs and sat in the main seats. Gu Yue Tian, Gu Lie, and Cang Mu sat in the lower seats.
"Governor Gu, you should know why we are here. So, I will not beat around the bush. Let's get straight to the point!" The Ninth Commandery Princess, who was sitting in the highest seat, said with a straight face.
"I would like to hear the details!
I only have a smattering of knowledge and hope that Princess will be able to dispel my doubts. "Gu Yue Tian cupped his fists and said in a rather meticulous manner.
"Rattan Armor City is located above the Annihilation Forest. In the Annihilation Forest, there is a dangerous place called the Heaven's Fiend Dark Eye!
You should all know this! "The Ninth Commandery Princess paused and glanced at the people in the hall. Then she spoke again.
"Father, a month ago, he sensed that the Heavenly Fiend Dark Eye was rioting. Although he didn't know who caused this rioting, it was this rioting that caused the power of the Heavenly Fiend Dark Eye to weaken by a lot!"
"Due to the weakening of its power, the trace of restriction power within was detected by Lord Father. Thus, Father followed this trace of restriction power and used the Limitless Heaven and Earth Secret Technique to discover that there was actually an ancient cave dwelling within the Heaven Fiend Dark Eye."
As soon as the Ninth Commandery Princess finished her words, Gu Yuetian and the other two people in the main hall suddenly trembled.
Ancient cave dwelling?
They did not expect that there was an ancient cave dwelling in the Heaven's Fiend Dark Eye. There were records in ancient books. Ten thousand years ago, there were many sects and geniuses everywhere in the Heavenly Armor Continent. There were countless Sages among them. Now, there were only a few Sages and even some Divine Level Experts in the Divine Transformation Realm!
However, there were vague records in the ancient books. Ten thousand years ago, there seemed to have been an earth-shattering catastrophe. As for the details of the catastrophe, it was exceptionally vague. However, after the catastrophe, the entire Heavenly Armor Continent had declined.
Countless Sages had fallen in the catastrophe ten thousand years ago. Countless Emperors and Marquises had disappeared in the river of time. It was this catastrophe that had caused the martial arts of the entire Heavenly Armor Continent to decline to this extent. Now, even Sages were elusive.
Therefore, the later generations called the era ten thousand years ago the Ancient Era, and the era from ten thousand years ago to the present was called the Modern Era!
Almost every warrior in the Ancient Era had extremely powerful strength. It was said that the strength of their bodies was comparable to that of the powerful Meta Beasts. They were blessed by nature.
Compared to warriors of the same level, warriors from the Ancient Era were much stronger than warriors from the Modern Era.
The Ancient Cave Dwellings were mansions opened by the strongest warriors in the Ancient Era. It was said that these mansions were created by the strong warriors from the Ancient Era. They used the power of space to open up a space in the void and used it as a place for their own cultivation!
Spiritual Herbs, Spiritual Treasures, Secret Techniques, Armor Techniques, and many other resources could be found in the cave dwellings. If a warrior only needed to get a few of them, it could be said to be a great adventure!
In the Qing Xuan Empire, there had been a warrior with mediocre aptitude and ordinary cultivation who had accidentally obtained the secret treasures of the cave dwellings. In a short period of time, his cultivation had broken through repeatedly. His cultivation speed had almost surpassed that of a group of geniuses. From then on, he became the most dazzling young warrior in the entire empire.
Such legends were innumerable in the Qing Xuan Empire and even the entire Eastern Lands. It was these legends that caused everyone to scramble for the Ancient Cave Dwelling.
However, most of the Ancient Cave Dwellings were located in independent spaces. Moreover, the outside of the Ancient Cave Dwellings were concealed by restrictive spells. Therefore, finding one was like finding a needle in a haystack.
Now, there was actually an Ancient Cave Dwelling in the vicinity of Rattan Armor City. Even Gu Yue Tian and Cang Mu were shocked. Their eyes were filled with shock. However, after the shock, a trace of joy appeared on their faces.
If the news about the Ancient Cave Dwelling was true, then they would have a chance to enter the cave dwelling. If they were lucky, they might even be able to obtain some benefits from it.
"However, you don't have to be happy too early. There is a layer of restrictive spells outside the Ancient Cave Dwelling. According to my father's estimation, that layer of restrictive spells can only be broken by the strength of an Ultimate Emperor Realm warrior. Or perhaps, three peak Heavenly King Realm warriors can also break the restrictive spells of the Ancient Cave Dwelling."
The Ninth Commandery Princess also noticed the strange expressions on the faces of Gu Yue Tian and the others. She laughed coldly and sneered.
Gu Yue Tian was taken aback. Soon after, he gave a dry laugh as he scratched his head. Following which, he remained silent. He knew that as the governor of a small low grade city, he did not have the slightest authority to speak in front of the three of them!
"However, you can rest assured that if the restrictive spells of the Ancient Cave Dwelling are broken, no one will stop you from entering!
Moreover, my father has already estimated that the Ancient Cave Dwelling in the eyes of Tian Sha Ming should be a deserted Ancient Cave Dwelling. The resources inside should not be as abundant as imagined. Therefore, the Ancient Cave Dwelling will be used as a training ground for the younger warriors of the Marquis' residence. The experts of the older generation will not interfere! "
"Next, Marquis Muqin, Marquis Baichuan, and Marquis Yongsheng will send people over again. Other than the three Marquises of the Commandery Capital, some other forces may send people over as well. Therefore, Rattan Armor City will be very lively for a period of time!
Therefore, Governor Gu, please make more preparations! "
The Ninth Commandery Princess cast a sidelong glance at Gu Yue Tian. Her pretty face revealed a trace of arrogance as she spoke calmly.
"Don't worry, Commandery Princess. I will arrange everything well!" Gu Yue Tian clasped his hands and said respectfully.
The Ninth Commandery Princess nodded slightly. After a few more words, she left the hall with Lingju and Xu Chang. Under Gu Lie's lead, they went to the rooms that had been arranged for them to rest.
Looking at the backs of the Ninth Commandery Princess and the other two, Gu Yue Tian's face revealed a thoughtful expression. Finally, he sighed softly and said to himself, "It seems that Rattan Armor City will not be peaceful soon. I really did not expect that an Ancient Cave Dwelling would appear in the Annihilation Forest. I really don't know if this is our luck or our misfortune?"
"Now, we can only take one step at a time. After all, this involves the forces of the three Marquises of the Commandery Capital. This is not something that we can interfere with. As long as we don't make any moves, we will not get into big trouble." Master Kuraki gently patted Gu Yue Tian's shoulder and said with a sigh.
Just as the two of them fell into silence, a servant came in from outside the hall. He knelt down and said respectfully, "Sir, Young Master Zhuowen wishes to see you!"
"Zhuowen?
Let him in quickly! "Gu Yue Tian and Master Kuraki looked at each other and said hurriedly.
