Chapter 163

This time, the number of Xiantian Realm cultivators gathered was unimaginable. More than ten thousand people were gathered in groups of two or three, forming countless forces.

Following the movements of the four major forces, the others also followed closely.

"Let's go, let's go."

"Ruins, here I come."

"Ruins, a place full of fortuitous encounters. I will create a miracle."

Everyone set off with their heads held high, full of ambition.

"I wonder how many people will come back alive from this trip to Ruins."

"Yeah, opportunities are accompanied by danger. The appearance of a secret manual will bring a lot of bloodshed." At the city gate, many elders sighed.

Ruins, a place full of miracles and fortuitous encounters, but it was also accompanied by many dangers.

The army of ten thousand people was very vast. It was like a long dragon that paved the way to the ruins.

Among the ten thousand people, Zi Chen went alone. He did not team up with others and walked the path of a lone ranger. Moreover, he was a mid-stage Xiantian Realm cultivator, so no one was willing to rope him in, except for some teams that needed cannon fodder.

During this time, Zi Chen saw some familiar faces.

"Wu Sheng, he's still alive. He's also a Xiantian Realm cultivator."

Wu Sheng and Zi Chen had competed for the core disciple spot, and Zi Chen had defeated Wu Sheng. Unfortunately, under the powerful connections of the second elder, Zi Chen's core disciple spot was snatched away by Wu Sheng.

"Luo Men."

In addition to Wu Sheng, Zi Chen also saw Luo Men. This was the place where they exchanged contribution points. The two of them had a dispute over contribution points, which led to a series of events.

In the end, Luo Men slandered Zi Chen in the Punishment Palace and was punished by the head of the Punishment Palace. After that, their elders wanted to join forces to kill Zi Chen, but they were stopped by the Supreme Elder.

Wu Sheng and Luo Men's backer died in the hands of Zi Chen.

"Nimbus Martial Ancestor, almost all of them are dead. I can't believe they're still alive."

Thinking about it now, everything that happened that day was ridiculous. For the core disciple spot, for two contribution points, they would fight until their faces turned red. But now, even the sect was gone.

The Ruins was relatively close to the Martial Ancestor. According to legend, after the Martial Ancestor discovered the Martial Ancestor Art, he established the Martial Ancestor outside the Ruins. After thousands of years of development, the Martial Ancestor had become a powerful force.

Wu Sheng, Luo Men, and the others were close to Chen Feng and Ling Yun. They were together, discussing something.

Just as they approached the Martial Ancestor Realm, another powerful fighting force surged in. A portion of them followed Wu Xiong, while the rest followed behind Miao Kong.

Su Mengyao, Lin Xue, and Wu Hong were with Miao Kong. Moreover, Miao Kong's status in the Martial Arts Sect was not low. He had a Connate Full Circle expert protecting him.

The team of ten thousand people was like a long dragon, twisting and turning. After a month, they finally arrived at the Ruins.

Rumor had it that the Ruins were formed after the destruction of a powerful sect ten thousand years ago. The area was very wide, and there were many treasures left behind by the great sects ten thousand years ago.

After ten thousand years, many ancient trees had grown in the Ruins. The ancient trees were like small mountains, and it had become a dense forest.

Occasionally, one or two demonic beasts roared in the forest. These demonic beasts were said to be the result of the reproduction of the spirit beasts of the past ten thousand years. They were powerful and unfathomable. In the depths of the Ruins, even some sects and elders did not dare to rashly go there.

In front of them, the Ruins were in sight. The rogue cultivators were very excited. If they followed these great forces, they would be able to enter the trial ground and find treasures.

Compared to the rogue cultivators, the geniuses of the great forces had a more serious expression.

"There are many dangers in the Ruins. There are also Yuan Formations left behind ten thousand years ago. If you take the wrong path, you will be doomed eternally." Wu Xiong frowned and said in a serious tone.

"That's right. Everyone, be careful. Other than some ancient Yuan Formations, there are also many demonic beasts. This is a danger that cannot be ignored."

The other geniuses nodded in agreement. Looking at the Ruins in front of them, their eyes became more serious.

"Now, let's enter the Ruins. Be careful."

When the four great forces were about to reach the Ruins, they suddenly split up. Each of them led their own team and entered the Ruins from different directions.

"There are many Spiritual Herbs in the Ruins."

"If we are lucky, we can find a great treasure, a Spiritual Weapon."

"Let's go."

"For the great treasure, for the Spiritual Weapon."

Many rogue cultivators did not know what was going on. After seeing the Ruins, they became extremely excited and immediately rushed towards the Ruins.

When there was one, there would be a second. Many loose cultivators rushed into the ruins, forming a dark mass. It did not take long for them to overtake the many great powers and enter the ruins.

"Idiot."

Li Huo and the rest were unmoved. There was only contempt in their eyes.

"Courting death." Wang Shan sneered.

The Ruins had existed for tens of thousands of years. Many great forces had been exploring this place. Naturally, they knew where the danger was and where to enter. Not to mention the Inborn Experts, even those who flew into the sky did not dare to enter recklessly.

In the Ruins, there was a large patch of Mangrove Forest. It was as red as blood. The tree roots, branches, and leaves were all blood-red. It looked very strange. The red tree roots were like small snakes that drilled out from the ground and were exposed to the outside.

A group of rogue cultivators rushed into the Mangrove Forest for the great treasure. They were very excited and cheered. Their eyes shone brightly. They only had the great treasure in their minds and did not know that danger was approaching.

"Buzz."

Suddenly, the forest shook. The Mangrove Forest started to sway and the ground shook. Rays of red light surged out from the Mangrove Forest like a red mist, filling the entire Mangrove Forest.

A large patch of the Mangrove Forest was instantly covered by the red mist. Many cultivators were surrounded by the red mist.

"Rumble."

The earth quaked as the roots of the trees seemed to have come to life. They suddenly shook and extended out from the ground like snakes, coiling around the Greater Heaven rogue cultivators. In the blink of an eye, many of the rogue cultivators were caught in the attack.

"Ah, what's this?"

"There's red light everywhere. I can't see anything."

"Open for me."

"Get lost."

Many cultivators exclaimed. The red tree roots were like spiritual snakes. They were very strange and agile. In an instant, they coiled around the cultivators. Many cultivators activated their True Qi and struck at the red tree roots.

Clang.

When the weapons hit the tree roots, there were sparks. The tree roots were abnormally tough and could not be cut.

"Boom!"

Xiantian True Qi surged within the red mist. One cultivator after another tried to break free from the tree roots, but the tree roots were exceptionally tough. The surface of the roots emitted a strange red light, which pulled the cultivators into the ground one by one.

The ground of the Mangrove Forest was constantly shaking. The red mist covered the sky. No one outside knew what was happening. They could only hear screams.

"Ah, get lost."

"Help."

The shrill screams resounded throughout the Mangrove Forest and spread to the outside world. Everyone was terrified. Outside the red mist, many cultivators were sweating. They were relieved that they were lucky. They quickly retreated in fear.

The screams continued to be heard. They were extremely miserable and desperate.

Everyone continued to retreat. After a while, the red mist dissipated and the Mangrove Forest was silent again. Everyone looked at each other from afar and was shocked to find that the huge Mangrove Forest was empty. There was nothing in it.

It was as if nothing had happened just now.

"How could this be?"

"The red mist surrounded at least a hundred people before. Where are these people?"

Everyone's expression changed. The Mangrove Forest was crimson red. Even the ground was the same.

"Look, the ground is as red as blood. The trees are dripping with blood. Don't they look like they were watered with blood?" Someone exclaimed. Even his voice changed.

Those trees were as red as blood, as if they were watered with blood. Even the ground was red.

"This is the Blood Forest Array, the killing array outside the ruins. It is said that a corner of the sect's Sect Protection Array mutated ten thousand years ago. It merged with some plants and formed this Blood Forest. These trees feed on blood. You don't know anything. You only want the treasures inside. You deserve to die."

A cultivator stood very far away. When he saw the miserable scene, he sneered.

"What do you mean? They're dead and you're still making sarcastic remarks."

"That's right. Who are you?"

"The dead should be respected. These people don't even have a corpse left. You're still gloating."

The cultivator who was lucky enough to survive said unhappily.

"Humph, you bunch of selfish bastards, you deserve to die. Every one of you died for treasures. The ruins have been here for tens of thousands of years and have been visited by countless powers. You still want to find treasures in the periphery? Dream on."

"You're just relying on your wits to charge around recklessly. No matter how many of you there are, you'll all die."

The cultivator seemed to know a lot. He sneered and looked at the group of pale people. His eyes were full of sarcasm. After that, he ignored them and turned to walk away.

"The ruins are dangerous. If you don't want to die early, follow the footsteps of the big forces."

The cultivator's words were vicious. However, he gave them advice out of kindness and disappeared.

"Why? We can't even drink soup if we follow behind the big forces."

"That's right. We came to the ruins to explore and explore. We're here for the treasures. Are we going to eat dust if we follow behind them?"

"How dare a coward teach us a lesson here."

"How dare you make sarcastic remarks when you're afraid of death?"

Not everyone was grateful. There were always some who were different and had unique thoughts. They deliberately avoided the Blood Forest Formation and walked deeper into the ruins. They wanted to open up a new path.

It had to be said that this idea was beautiful. However, it was difficult to open up a new path without any luck or strength.

After more than ten people disappeared into the forest silently, before they could even scream, someone was finally scared and began to retreat.

"Boom!"

In the chaos, a cultivator stepped on a withered branch and broke it. Then, it triggered a hidden formation. Rays of light flashed and rushed towards the cultivators like sharp blades.

"Puff." "Puff." "Puff."

Sounds of explosions rang out continuously. The rays of light were like sharp blades that instantly pierced through the protective shields and stabbed into the bodies of the cultivators. These cultivators instantly fell to the ground, their life force dissipating. They died on the path that was being opened up, filling up the ruins with even more bones.

Another group of explorers died.

There were many Origin Formations in the periphery of the ruins. These were Origin Formations that had not decayed for ten thousand years. They were very powerful and had merged with the plants. It was very difficult to break through.

The big forces all had their own safe paths. They walked in front and many rogue cultivators followed behind.
